“Was in a huge crunch, time wise, and Morgan stepped up and delivered big time. She is personable, responsible, diligent and ridiculously willing (in a great way) to ensure my pets were well cared for and my mind was able to focus on my travels, and eased. Morgan sent daily pics of my pets that showed they were growing more accustomed to her twice-daily visits. She followed directions to the tee and even went beyond what was asked. Of course I’ve already booked her again! Thank you, Morgan!!!”
“Thank you Madeline for loving our cats while we were out. She is prompt, and responsible. We trusted Madeline and would definitely contact her next time we are out of town.”
“Karolina dropped by a couple times on 5-6-26 to walk our Brody and play with him while we were away. She is definitely worth 5 stars! We've already booked her for a second sitting. I would highly recommend her!”
“Avery has checked in on our little orange girl a few times now and we are always so grateful because we know that we don’t need to stress. We would recommend Avery to anyone!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for the past nine years. As a teen I took care of my cat Raina and my dog Kova (both of whom I will gush about at any opportunity). I offer pet sitting and dog walking. Excited to make new fur baby friends! I currently work part time in the mornings, so I have the rest of the day to tend to your pets! Available for dog walking and pet sitting upon request. I live in a strict “no pets” apartment, however I am surrounded by beautiful routes to take all kinds of fur babies on! I can take on up to four dogs at a time
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and my friends and families. I have walked others energetic puppies and my own. I love trying to teach them new tricks and reward good behavior. I can give your pets their medicine or help with special instructions for their care. I have no problem cleaning up after them when they go to the bathroom. I am able to work any hours or days. There are a few times that I might need to go do somethings between care like errands. I have a fenced yard so I get to go outside with my dogs and play with them and I hope to do that with other dogs. I am very good with following directions for others animals.
“Kayla is so good with our animals. I appreciate her keeping us updated on them and love the pictures she sends! So nice to have someone I can trust to give our pup a little extra attention when we can’t!”
“Tyeler is great! It's a relief to have a pet sitter who is familiar with reptiles. Have booked with her twice now. Very detailed-oriented and asks great questions to make sure she knows the care routine to a tee. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and have worked in Animal Shelters and know how to compassionately take care of pets with all manners of needs. I have also taken dog training courses at Colorado State University and have loved my own dog Bandit for 3 years. I am currently watching others furry family members full time and have open availability for all your needs! No matter you and your pets schedule I can be there. I am adaptable to care for pets in any home environment and can quickly figure out your equipment and routine to keep things as “normal” for your fur baby as possible.
About: Welcome to my profile! I have over 4 years of pet sitting experience caring for puppies, kittens, seniors, and every age in between. At home, I have two Australian Shepherds and two cats of my own, so I know how to manage high energy as well as quiet routines. I am a self-proclaimed cat whisperer with extensive experience handling timid felines, as well as administering oral and topical medications safely. Beyond cats and dogs, I’ve also cared for fish, geckos, and axolotls! I pride myself on reliability, clear communication, and keeping your pets safe and comfortable while you're away. I look forward to meeting your pets! My schedule is pretty open with flexible availability through mid-September. Drop-In Visits & Walks: Available anytime morning, afternoon, or evening (from short check-ins up to a few hours of extended care/company). Overnight House Sitting: Available on a case-by-case basis! I am happy to stay overnight in the right home environment to keep your pets comfortable in their normal routine. Note: Once college classes resume in mid-September, my availability will transition to mornings, evenings, and weekends. Also subject to change if employed elsewhere. Caring for your pets in your home is a responsibility I take very seriously. Here is how I ensure a safe and trustworthy environment: Home Respect & Security: I ensure all entryways and gates are locked tight, respect your privacy, and leave your home as clean as (or cleaner than) I found it. Tailored Routines: I strictly follow your feeding, exercise, and house rules so your pets don't experience unnecessary stress while you're away. Specialized & Medical Care: Experience administering oral/topical medications and in handling puppies, kittens, seniors, and feeding exotic pets (geckos, axolotls, fish) safely. Emergency Readiness: I ask for your veterinarian's contact info and emergency preferences before every booking and send clear photo updates if requested so you never have to worry.
“Thank you Ratih for taking care of our animals while we were gone. My wife and I are always nervous when we are away from home but Ratih kept us at ease. We especially appreciated the photos and short videos she sent us. I highly recommend her services and we will be using her again in the near future.”
“Karlee was the sweetest and most caring cat sitter! Every drop-in visit had a loving note and many photos, so I could really tell she cared for my cat. She was very responsive with communications as well. As a Rover cat sitter myself, I was quite impressed and felt better on my first trip away knowing that my cat was in good hands.”
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.
“Thanks again for your help. It was on short notice and you accommodated us. And, our girls Lucy and Ella really appreciated it as well. They always enjoy going outside to play while we're gone. Thank you, again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Burlington
Kayla did a great job with our anxious dog. She came by for a drop-in visit, took her out in the backyard, gave her the treats we left, and set up dinner. Kayla was very communicative throughout and sent pictures, which we really appreciated given how anxious our pup can get with new people. Looking forward to booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Burlington on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,517 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Burlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Burlington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Burlington. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
