“Emily was wonderful! She was incredibly communicative, flexible, and kind to my kitties. With each visit, she sent wonderful updates and silly photos and went above and beyond to make them comfortable.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and cats as well. I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve had golden retrievers, pit bulls, Rottweilers, and a mini golden doodle. We currently have a 3 month old Golden Retriever! I’m currently a Stay at Home Mom to a 17. Month old little boy and a 3 month old Golden Retriever! So I’m available all the time! My son is a huge animal lover already and will be joining me on check ins and walks so please keep that in mind! Your pets safety is my first priority. They will get plenty of love and play time from myself and my son! You’re pet will be treated as if they’re my own!
“Repeat customer! I just love Emily! She is so sweet and kind to my cat, Oliver. She always sends photos and updates so I can see how he's doing. Oliver loves her, which makes my vacations worry free! Thank you!”
“Cayla goes above and beyond, provides outstanding care for my one year old golden retriever who can be a handful at times. Cayla is very patient, playful, flexible and provides detailed updates and great photos. I highly recommend her!!”
“Lacy went well above and beyond what was required of just setting out food, water, and cleaning the litter box. She got to know my very opinionated Queen Lilly who rules our end of the block. Lacy gave her the one on one attention and socialization she needs every day to remain calm and somewhat agreeable. Lacy won Lilly's trust and even hand fed her treats. It is the first time I returned home from a trip and did not get a two hour lecture of complaints from Lilly about how she was abandoned and left to starve with no company (which was not the case - she just did NOT like her caretaker). Happy cat = VERY happy cat owner!!”
“Rianna is so sweet with my pups. While they are very low maintenance, she goes out of her way to be super sweet and patient with them. 2 big thumbs up and I will continue to book her for my daily dog needs.”
About: For some reason, every dog I've ever met loves me. I absolutely adore dogs. I've been dog sitting for 17 years for friends and family. I've taken care of shy, skittish, hyper, calm, anxious, and every other type of dog personality. I have a calming way about me that dogs love. I'm incredibly trustworthy, detail oriented, careful, loving, and protective. I am willing to help out in any way needed to make your dog as happy as possible. The dog in my profile is my former dog Roxy. I rescued her from a shelter. She was my best friend. No one would choose her for a forever home because she had a lot of social needs. I was able to work with her on these needs and did a lot of training and she became an amazing dog. I can't wait to meet your dog or dogs and give them the care that they need.
“Abey was wonderful! If you are looking for someone who is dependable and treats your pets like family then you need to hire her. I can’t express enough how happy I am with how well treated my boys were. And the pictures she provided made it easy to see they loved her too.”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I've cared for my family's dog whenever they're out of town. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, and as a nursing student with healthcare experience and have previously worked in the criminal justice field for many years, I take responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving care, regular updates, and treat your pets like they're part of my own family. Caring for pets fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently in nursing school and only work one day a week, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability for drop-in visits and dog walks. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand the importance of keeping them on their normal routine. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding instructions, provide fresh water, walks or playtime, clean up after them, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I had 2 cats and a dog growing up! No pets currently but happy to play and take care of yours! Currently cannot watch any pets at my home but happy to complete as many home visits as necessary as long as you are relatively close by:) I am not currently working full time and my schedule is fairly flexible. I am happy to discuss any extra care needed for your pet. I am happy to follow specific instructions/feeding schedules as needed. I will also completed any necessary home care tasks as wanted as long as discussed prior.
“Jack is amazing!! He was able to accommodate multiple visits in a day for my puppy on a short notice. He is very communicative, left detailed reviews for each visit with multiple adorable pics. He provided care that was above and beyond. I knew my puppy was in good hands I highly recommend!!!”
“Brandi is amazing cat sitter, our cats love her. When we came back after long trip, I feel like both of my cats didn’t feel we were gone at all. Thanks to her again. Definitely ask her to check our cats again in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Kelsey! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a special connection with them. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing pets with the love and care they deserve. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I know how much pets mean to their families and will always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s going on walks, playing, keeping them company, or simply making sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’m excited to get to know yours. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own and would love the chance to help keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. I am available Monday through Sunday at any time and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether your furry friend needs early morning walks, daytime check-ins, evening visits, or overnight care, I am happy to work with your schedule. I will care for your pet in your home by keeping them comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand that pets feel most secure in a familiar environment, so I’ll provide plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. I will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and any special preferences your pet may have. I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they need, while also respecting your home and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have almost a lifetime of experience with animals of all ages. Im patient with high energy puppies and calming to older and wiser animals. I love to bond with dogs over long walks and play sessions. I love spending time outdoors and with the company of a dog, the time becomes even more meaningful. Caring and visiting pets had always been a huge mood booster for me. When I am spending time with your pets we will be playing, taking walks or cuddling as much as possible. I will take the time to understand the needs your pet might be communicating.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire childhood and in my adult life that I love but I couldn’t wait to have a dog of my own to take care of and train. I have a rotating 48/96 schedule at work that allows me to have multiple different days off throughout the week. Jason works from home so he is always available to your pets for boarding and doggy day care. We have one very friendly and loving Goldendoodle that would love for other dogs to play with him. He loves going to the dog park so that would be available throughout the day as well. We are also able to crate your dog if necessary.
About: I've had cats my entire life and have volunteered at an animal shelter. While I only have one cat now, I've cared in-depth for dogs, reptiles, rabbits, and other small mammals. I've helped care for a senior pet that needed regular meds and frequent reprieves for bladder control. I have a full time job, so I am able to care for your pets first thing in the mornings before I go to work and then after I am finished with my workday, so if your pet is used to the normal 8-5 hours of being alone, I’m a perfect fit for your family! I am familiar with socialization, crate training, daily activity, and all-around love that is required for dogs and cats. I am no stranger to the more hands-off needs of a small mammal or scaled friend, and am comfortable handling all sorts of pets. I am respectful of a client's home and will treat it as if it were my own. I do ask that I can adjust the temperature and that I will be comfortable staying in your home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Burlington
Cayla was a fantastic pet sitter. I was nervous of leaving my companions, a bird and a dove, esp because they are not dogs or cats. Cayla met me before my trip and I knew upon meeting her they were in the right hands. She treated them like my family and sent me all the pics and videos I needed. She always got back to me right away when we had to communicate, and made sure the house was warm enough when the temps dipped. When I got home it was like I'd never been gone, cleaner actually
As always Alyssa was great. She is super prompt and always reaches with any questions or concerns. My dogs are escape artists and she is super careful and attentive with them. I dont worry anymore about my dogs when I can't be home with them, I know they are in good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Burlington on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,426 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
