Pet Sitting Burlington

“My indoor feral (who shows herself to no humans ever) was comfortable enough to show herself to Ella. Speaks volumes. Very grateful to always come home to happy pets.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for many years! I am very good with fast,young, strong dogs! I enjoy watching dogs learn their environment on each walk a little bit more where they are 10 weeks or 10 years old! I love them all!! I am prioritizing your pets care and needs so I will make the time! I will communicate any unusual changes to my schedule in advance (I.E out of town weddings etc.) Trust means everything to me! I want you to trust me as well as your sweet pets to trust me as well!! I love building a natural report with them!!

About: I've dog walked and overnight sitted for both cats and dogs for years, and have a pet-friendly home near downtown Burlington. I'm looking forward to spending time with your pet! I'm a college student living near downtown Burlington, with open availability on weekends, afternoon and evening availabilities M/W/F, and evening availabilities on T/Th. I'm also happy to care for pets in my own home or at my clients'. I care for every pet based on their individual needs, routine, and personality. In my home, pets will have a spacious, comfortable, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and regular walks and potty breaks. I don’t have a backyard, but I make sure pets get appropriate outdoor time and exercise based on their normal routine and energy level. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of both your space and your pet’s established routine, following all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special care need. I also prioritize safety, supervision, and communication, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and updated while away!

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 been surrounded by dogs of all types my whole life, from dog-sitting for family friends to getting my own dog 7 years ago. I'm very comfortable with all breeds! Currently a full-time student at UVM. I have a car, and I'm willing to work between classes or anytime during the week after classes. Available on weekends. I'm available Monday & Wednesday after 3:30, Tuesday & Thursday after 2:45, and Friday after 1! Currently living in a dorm, so I cannot board dogs or pet-sit overnight. But very willing to walk dog or even just let a dog out into a yard and play.

About: I’ve had my own dogs all my life and have sat and walked pets professionally for around 2 years, so I am equipped with the skills necessary to keep pets safe and happy. I’ve had one-time clients or recurring clients — whatever the owner needs! I love pets and have always gotten along well when I meet a friend’s pet, hence my interest in expanding this passion. I am currently in medical school and my schedule is relatively flexible - I am able to walk your pets, drop in to make sure they’re okay, or stay with them all day! I generally have classes in the mornings and afternoons mostly off. I am available for walks or overnight stays depending on the pet parent’s request. I am happy to work with clients and figure out a schedule that works for them! I abide by all rules the owner set. I will inquire ahead of time of any special needs the pet has or certain routines from the owner. I am not there to intrude - just offer the same level of care and love as the dog would normally get! I also understand some pets may be anxious with a new person in the house, so I will do my best to ease into my position and offer a lot of comfort to the pets before trying to play with them or feed them.

“Alex was such a great sitter for our new puppy, Gator! She sent us great photos of him and was very responsive! Would highly recommend for any drop in visits!”

“This is the second time Zoe has watched my two cats and she does such a great job. Whenever I go on trips I know I’m leaving them in good hands in Zoe’s care. She always sends pictures and I come home to two well-fed and happy cats.”

About: Hi!! I’m missing interacting with puppies in my life, and am really just wanting some more time with lovely little animals! Open to help out in any way! I work at a nursing home, and have Wednesdays and Fridays off. When I work, I’m there from 6:30-3. I can stop by before and after work, evenings and nights, or whenever you need! I don’t currently have any pets (sadly!) but absolutely adore all furry friends. I have experience taking care of my own cats and dogs, and recently helped a friend take care of a family friends dog for half a year.

“Caring and attentive with my cat. Made sure to pay attention to how to give medication to my cat. Was accommodating to his needs and flexible on timing”

About: I've been around animals my entire life, and I've always considered them part of the family! I got my first dog when I was eleven, and over the years, my family grew to include six dogs. My parents and I have also fostered dogs together, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and backgrounds, including those who need a little extra patience, reassurance, and time to adjust. I've spent years pet-sitting for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for pets through overnight stays, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I currently live with two cats, so I'm comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand that every animal has their own unique personality, needs, and routines. My favorite part of caring for animals is getting to know their individual personalities and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I want every owner to feel comfortable knowing their furry family members are in good hands. I’ll always do my best to make your pets feel right at home and give them the same love and care I would give my own! I recently moved to the area and currently work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule! I'm available to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day, whether that means walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or keeping them company while you're away. I'm happy to work with your pet's usual routine and do my best to accommodate your scheduling needs. I know how important consistency is for pets, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved! My top priorities are always to create a safe, trusting environment and to ensure a comfortable atmosphere. I make sure all pets feel secure, calm, and loved. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency as needed and possible. In a client's home, I treat the space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I'm very mindful of my surroundings during walks. I also take the time to get to know each pet's personality so I know how to respond appropriately to their needs and comfort levels. Communication is key, so I always provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give pet parents peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where all pets feel comfortable and cared for, and each owner feels confident they've left their pets in good hands.

“It was my first time using Rover and I was a bit anxious, but Heidi was lovely and very reliable. I can tell she’s a pro and my cats were well taken care of. Will definitely book again!”

Rachel B.

“Felipe was phenomenal to work with. Quick replies, friendly demeanor. He cheerfully took care of a mess that really wasn't anticipated or typical. Photos every day and healthy happy cats when I returned!”

“Can’t say enough good things about Christine!!! She really goes above and beyond for your pet. You can tell how much she truly enjoys caring for your fur babies, from sending you pictures through out her visits, to popping something on tv to comfort your pups while you are away. She always communicates with us the plan for her visit, which we appreciate more than anything. We would highly recommend using her for your next pet drop in!! 10/10 :)”

About: I am a University of Notre Dame alumn working remotely from Burlington Vermont. I grew up with family dogs of all different personalities and energy levels, from high-energy Jack Russells to affectionate English Springer Spaniels and Boxers. Being around dogs my whole life has made me comfortable adapting to different routines, temperaments, and exercise needs. As I start thinking about adding a dog of my own, I’d love the opportunity to spend time caring for dogs in my community and give them the same attention, affection, and care I’d want for my own. I currently work fully remote from my apartment in Burlington Vermont. I spend most of my free time outdoors, going for walk by the waterfront, biking, golfing, and hiking. I look to fit in client walks throughout the work day and after work. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any specific instructions from their owner. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet’s space and the home itself, and I do my best to keep things consistent so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away.

About: There's nothing worse than having to leave your pet with someone you don't fully trust to care for them the way you will. Growing up with dogs, cats, rodents, fish, turtles, etc. instilled a strong sense of responsibility in me for detail-oriented and fiercely loving care for all types of pets. Among my friends, colleagues, and relatives, I have become the go-to person for drop-in walks, petsitting/house sitting, and more. Traveling or needing an extra hand taking care of your pet should not have to be a source of stress - I hope to be able to bridge that gap for you. Spending time with your sweet pet is just an added bonus! I have experience caring for dogs and cats under a year old all the way to senior pets who may require more attention (like medication administration). I have experience walking more than one dog at a time, as well as walking larger dogs up to 100lbs independently. I love playing with animals and see stimulating play as a vital part of caring for them while their owner is away. I work full-time for the University of Vermont - while I do work primarily in person, I have hybrid flexibility when I am not meeting with clients and am able to step away from work when I want and need to. My late afternoons, evenings, and weekends are typically free and flexible outside of rest and relaxation! I am located very central to the University of Vermont campus, the South End, and the Old North End. I can travel by foot, car, and bike. My shared living environment limits me from boarding animals in my home. However, I am happy to care for your pets in the space they're most comfortable in and familiar with! I can come and go from your home for drop-in walks, longer walk outings, and overnight stays if necessary. I will respect you and your pet's space and belongings. Cleanliness, organization, and safety are of the utmost importance to me.

About: I always grew up around animals, I had a cat the same age as me until she passed. I now have a 2 year old cat. I love dogs and always take care of my family members dog and can teach basic skills. I go to school everyday on the weekdays but would love after school pet time. Weekends I am free to spend extra time with your pets. I will always go at your pets pace when taking care of them and will never force them to do something they don’t want to do. I will listen to yours and your pets needs.

About: Hi! I’m Abby, and I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—everything from playful puppies to mellow senior pets. Friends and family always turn to me when they need someone dependable to watch their furry loved ones, and I’d love to do the same for you. I know how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away. That’s why I treat every pet like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and consistency with their routines. Whether it’s walks around the neighborhood, playtime, snuggles, or keeping up with special diets or medications, I’ve got it covered. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work on a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and playtime throughout the day. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening, I can adjust to your pet’s needs. When I care for pets in their own home, my priority is keeping them comfortable and sticking to their normal routine. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, and playtime—so everything feels familiar for your pet. I give them plenty of love and attention, but also respect their space if they’re more shy or independent. I make sure water bowls are always fresh, litter boxes are clean, and your home is left just the way you expect it. I also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Senior pets have a special place in my heart. I’ve had pets my whole life, growing up with two dogs, (A golden, named princess and a Vizsla, named Ruby Rose) and a handful of kitties whom I’ve loved till their 9th life. I am comfortable with administering medications, following specific diets, and attending to your pet’s unique quirks and specificities! I have dog-sat for friends and neighbors over the years, and I also pet sit on Trusted House Sitters I’m off work this summer, so pet care fits easily into my day! Mornings, afternoons, evenings, whatever works best for your pet’s routine. I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible: same feeding schedule, same walk times. I’m attentive to details like locking doors and gates, keeping food/water fresh, and watching for any signs of stress or illness. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own
