About: I have grown up with and taken care of pets my entire life. I love spending time with and find peace among dogs, cats, and chickens! I am a current part-time student and employee. I have the most consistent availability in the early mornings (6am-8am) and over the weekend. I can be flexible if needed! I am adaptable and take a calm and patient approach when meeting a pet to whom I am a new person. I understand that trust is mutual and takes time!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, my household was never without one. I miss my pups while I’ve been at school and would be more than happy to hang out with yours and treat them like my own. I have taken multiple classes through UVM on dog behavior and training, so I can keep the more anxious or challenging dogs comfortable, going at their pace and reading them. I also to walk and hike, so if you just need a tired pup I can wear them out! I am a full time student and I have a flexible schedule, so I can work around my classes and find times that work for your needs. I often have weekend off, so this is the best time for me! I put my care for my pets at the top of my priorities because I love them deeply. I understand the connection that people have with their own pets and how hard it is to trust them with someone else. I hope to have people feeling confident leaving their pets with me, knowing that they will be cared for like my own.

About: My best friend is my dog Lilly!! She was found on the streets of Tennessee but we love her like a blood human relative, she has always had health issues so I am well equipped to take care of all types of dogs. She is full of energy and rambunctious even at 13 years old, so I know how it is to walk/play with dogs like this! College student at the University of Vermont, working part time at a restaurant with a lot of flexibility! Let me know what times works best for you and we can figure out scheduling! My pets are always my first priority and favorite part of my day. When I am home in New Jersey, my favorite thing to do is hang out with my dog and cats, I am always the first to volunteer to walk my dog Lilly and make sure she is cared for.

About: My experience with dogs spans from dog sitting to working at vet hospitals. I have owned large dogs since I was young this let to me sitting for neighbors and people around town. I have experience with dogs as young as 8 weeks old to seniors who needed a little extra care. My veterinary experience means that I can provide basic medical care if needed. I will take care of your pet as if it was my own! I am currently a college student looking for a way to work with animals while at school. I am fairly flexible with time as my classes are spread out which is conducive to visiting during the day as well as dog walking if needed. It also means I’m available on most weekends and open to staying at the house with your pet. I am looking to provide the best care to you and your pet! I make sure to be attentive to both the clients wants for their animals as well as learning the animals personality in order to provide the best care. I will also make sure to keep the clients home clean and abide to any household rules that they would like be to follow. Overall I am flexible and will make sure to listen to both human and animal wants.

About: I have been around pets my entire life, and I owe much of my knowledge of the little things that go into properly caring for them to my experience owning several pets myself (currently 3 dogs)! I have also had several years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors care for their pets, both dogs and cats alike. I am experienced in adapting my care to suit different pet personalities. I am also very receptive to owner feedback and committed to providing a good experience for both you and your pet. Although I am new to this app, my past experiences are just as relevant, and I hope to meet some new pets and people in need of care around the area! While I am a full time college student, if I have a steady schedule set out for me I have the capacity to make daily trips for pet sitting if need be. I will be sure to be very prompt and communicative with any fluctuations in my routine as to better inform owners. While I cannot offer up care for pets in my apartment where pets aren’t allowed, I am more than willing to establish a trusted relationship with pet owners who are offering sitters to stay at their home. I will take the extra time to ensure they feel comfortable with having me there and that I will be respectful of their space. I will tailor my visits tightly to the owners instructions while filling in my experience in pet care along throughout the process to help ensure it is as smooth and stress free as possible for owners

About: I love pets. Ever since I was little, playing with my pets and taking care of them gave me a sense of importance. To help do so for members of my community would be a great way to reconnect with the simple pleasures of quality pet time. I currently work full-time 4 days a week. The other three days of the week I have incredible flexibility. On the days that I do work, I can flexible in the mornings until 12, 12:30 latest. I will be unable to have pets at my own home due to landlord requests. But, I have ample experience walking dogs and ensuring they are properly supervised. I also am incredibly active and a strong individual, callable of heavy lifting and can mitigate any dragging from a leash.

About: I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs of all breeds and ages. My mom went to school for training dogs so I picked up quite a bit from her. I have also taken care of cats for various family and friends. I love all animals and I hope to care for yours! I am currently between jobs after traveling for the summer so I have a wide availability of time ranges for taking care of your pets! I care for pets depending on what each unique one needs. As long as I am made aware of any quirks of the pets then I can guarantee they will get what they need.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience, I have had the pleasure of caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My experience spans from handling playful puppies to providing tender care for senior pets from friends and family for over five years. I am free this July until August and otherwise I will be going to UVM this fall so my availability will vary based on my schedule. I’m not planning on taking any pets to my house since it is not pet safe. I will gladly though pet sit in your house.

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish. Although I haven't owned a dog myself, I've spent years helping neighbors and friends by feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for their pets while they were away. I've also house sat for a home with three cats, making sure they stayed on their normal routine and received plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take the time to learn their routine and follow your instructions carefully. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking to a familiar schedule, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to details, and I know how important it is to keep pet owners updated. I'll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and pet care throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals, so I make sure each visit includes plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, or quiet companionship based on your pet's needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll do my best to maintain their regular routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise routines, and any household rules you've established. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks unless in a designated enclosed area, and I pay close attention to their surroundings to keep them safe. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and work to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible. I'm happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: At home (Corinth, VT), I have grown up with 30 chickens, 3 sheep, a dog, and now 3 cats (we had 5 at one point!). I have experience dog sitting for multiple weeks at a time, dog walking, and am patient with anxious, easily aggravated, and loud dogs. I currently work in the mornings on Saturdays, but am free the rest of the week to tend to pets' needs! I love going for walks so an active dog is right up my alley, however I have plenty of experience with less active dogs as well (my family had a 16 y.o. chocolate lab). I have cared for multiple pets while their owners were on vacation in-home, however, I also have experience caring for a cat for 3 weeks on a drop-in basis. I am responsible with keys, as I have sat for homes in both rural environments as well as in Boston, MA.

About: Hi there! My name is Ally (they/them) and I am an experienced doggy day care employee and groomer-in-training looking for flexible pet care opportunities while finishing up school. In addition to having cared for pets most of my life, I have extensive professional experience caring for, mediating behavior of, feeding, and administering medications to up to 100 or more dogs at a time! I would be more than happy to train your puppy, show your senior pet some love and comfort, or spend some quality with your kitty! While my work experience is primarily with dogs, I love pets of all kinds, and would be so excited to care for any pet, no matter how “unusual” (snakes, lizards, spiders, insects, rodents, birds, etc.) I look forward to getting to know you and your pets! As a student I have a lot to do in a day, so drop in visits/walks are ideal, but house sitting is a viable option as well! How I plan on caring for your pet is primarily determined by client instruction. I will do my best to care for your baby the same way you would! I prefer to use positive reinforcement for training or behavior modification, and I like to keep feeding and medication schedules quite consistent. I also really enjoy sending lots of photo check ins! I feel most comfortable when you and your pets feel most comfortable, and it’s incredibly important to me to establish a relationship built on mutual trust. To me, your home is a workplace environment, and will be treated with the same respect.

Had a great experience booking daily walks for three days with Jenna. Had to book super last minute and she was kind enough to accept and be flexible with us. She provided a rover card for each walk showing how far and long they walked as well as if my dog pooped 1-2x which was rlly helpful for me. jenna also went the extra mile of feeding him and making sure he ate after his walks while also keeping him company for a good amount of time afterwards too. All of which was rlly appreciated, well communicated, and shows how much she cares! I also received a daily picture which I looked forward to everyday :) not many dog walkers would do all of this but she did. Also, it was rlly important that my dog goes on a 30 min walk once every 24 h or else he won’t eat and starts throwing up from starving himself and she responsibly did show up within the asked/ flexible time frame:) Would book another walk with her in the future

Casey did a wonderful job walking our dog Jax while I was away on a five-day business trip. Her help was a huge support to my wife while I was gone, and we really appreciated having someone so dependable caring for Jax each day. It quickly became clear how much Jax liked and trusted Casey. He figured out when she would arrive and would sit by the window looking out expectantly for her each day. Casey was great to work with from start to finish. She came to our house beforehand for a meet-and-greet with Jax, and she provided thoughtful updates after every walk. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Jax was so happy and well cared for. We would gladly work with Casey again and highly recommend her.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Burlington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Burlington on Rover is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $36 per walk. walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 600 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Burlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Burlington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Burlington after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Burlington. On Rover:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
