“We’ve been using Cayla for our Golden Retrievers since October 2025. She is wonderful! She really cares for the dogs and can tell that she really loves seeing them each time. She goes above and beyond for the dogs and us too. Cayla is also extremely dependable, which is huge for us. We feel VERY comfortable knowing that she is taking care of our babies on the days we work. We highly recommend Cayla!!”
“Thank you for responding to my request to help with Sophia today. It sounds like she ate well and felt like walking more today! Thank you for taking good care of her!”
“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.”
“Tami was always right on time. All of my animals were comfortable with her. She did a great job with all of them. This was the first time we have left our fur babies with someone they didn't already know. We were nervous but now we are at ease as long as Tami is available.”
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.
“Carrie did a phenomenal job with my Dog, he is very old and deaf and needed someone who would understand, she did just that!. Sent me many pictures and updates so I always felt at ease about having left. I will be using Carrie again.”
“Excellent and reliable care for my cats! She was also willing to help put out the trash for me! Thank you! I appreciated her pictures of my cats and open and clear communication. Two big thumbs up! 👍 👍”
“Sara is incredible! Is was onvious on day one how much she cares for animals. She is patient and kind with my doggo and quickly made friends. Her communication is top notch and the photos she sends really brighten a dull day”
“Allison is an incredible pet sitter. I was very nervous to leave my babies for a few days, and they helped me feel at ease. Very communicative, and I really appreciated all the photos. Thank you!”
“Abigail is a fantastic pet setter. You can leave your fur babies with her and have no worries. She will do extra tasks for you too and tunes in to your household routines to help out. Very dependable, communicates well, always there when scheduled. I highly recommend Abigail!”
“Monica is an exceptional pet sitter! Provides prompt responses, real time pet updates with pictures and my big guy Ripley is happy and safe when she provides pet care services. I am able to have piece of mind that my dog is well cared for when Im not in town, and also able to have communication with her. I just finished my second booking with Monica and will continue to book with her. Highly recommended!”
“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and truly treat every pet like my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to check in, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re at work or away on vacation. I’m a mom of two who works from home, which allows me to have a flexible and reliable schedule. I’m available for pet care between 8:00am–2:30pm and again from 4:00pm–8:00pm most days. Because I’m home based, I’m able to consistently show up on time, provide dependable care, and give your pets the attention they need during the day while you’re at work or away. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I always treat any pet with respect, care, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely, keep doors secured, and make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable at all times. I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that means giving them space or extra attention. I also provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for just like they would with you 🫶🏻
“Travis was awesome and did a great job taking care of my girl Patches while I was away for a few days. Always made sure to take good pictures and kept me in the loop with what was going on. He took my request on short notice and exceeded all of my expectations. Will be sure to check with him again! Thank you Travis!!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, hermit crabs, lizards, and fish, so I’ve always been surrounded by pets of all kinds. I’ve walked my family’s dogs for 10 years and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors with them. While my apartment doesn’t allow pets, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours through walks and drop-in visits. I’ll treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve! I’m typically available Monday through Friday mornings and early afternoons, and I’m happy to accommodate the occasional evening or Saturday when needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I currently offer dog walks and drop-in visits only, so your pet can stay in the familiar environment of your home and neighborhood. Whether we’re enjoying a walk, playing in the yard, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow your care instructions closely and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’ll always treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own.
“Sandy was awesome with my husband being in the hospital. I did not know until a few hours before if I needed her or not and under the circumstances, she was very supportive encouraging and helped at a drop of a hat. I came home yesterday morning after she had seen the dogs and she left a little card for them With two dog toys, saying from grandma Sandi. And a short amount of time she truly has become that. I also noticed she brought her own towel to wipe their feet off with in the mud Thank you Sandy for being so awesome and so kind encouraging and loving to my pups while I was away.”

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

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Burlington on Rover is $17.8 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 2,312 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
- 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.
