“Josh was absolutely brilliant. Extremely professional, responsible and reliable. Great communicator with humans and animals alike (lots of fun photos while we were away). He looked after our two cats for 4 days and we couldn't have been happier. When we returned home our cats were calm, well-fed and happy - food dishes were washed and litter box area was tidy. Josh will be my first choice from now on when we have to leave our cats next time.”
“Ella took great care of my 16 year old cat, including managing multiple medications. She was easy to communicate with, and I would happily book with her again.”
“Courtney is awesome! She goes above and beyond, is communicative and responsible, and there’s not more I’d ask of a sitter. Thank you for taking care of my cats!”
“Christine is very sweet and kind. She was very gentle with my 15 year old girl and accommodating to her needs. She is very prompt with scheduled times almost to the minute. I trust Christine fully and am confident in the care she gives to my precious girl!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets of all kinds since a young age. I have the ability to take care of multiple pets at once, including my three dogs Oliver, Cullen, and Suga. My priority is to make sure every dog I sit is shown proper care, love, and happiness. I have a very open schedule this summer. I do like to have some of my weekends to myself so I am unable to spend nights on weekends. I have open availability and am excited to meet some furry friends! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I exclusively provide care in clients' homes to help pets stay in their familiar environment. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I follow your pet’s schedule and preferences closely.I always take time to learn each animal’s needs, from medications to favorite toys or hiding spots. I can also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you're away.Your home is treated with the same respect and care I’d give my own—clean, secure, and just how you left it.
“Molly has been an absolute gem with Artie! She has been communicative, reliable, and someone our cat feels comfortable with. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Had Benjamin check in on my 1 year old cat Ash while I was away for the holidays. He was great with communication and kept me up to date on when he’d be checking on him. Ash, who is usually a very shy little guy, quickly warmed up to him and even got some play time in. Would definitely recommend Benjamin and will keep him in mind for the future!”
About: I've had dogs since I was very little. Very comfortable with anything from small and anxious to big and jumpy. Currently have 2 cats at home, a very young senior and a old kitten. I am a full time graduate student with some intermittent periods of free time and am always looking to take a study break and go hang out with some pets. Im currently a Doctorate of Physical Therapy student at UVM. So whenever I'm not in class I'm free to spend it with your furry friend. Since I have cats, I always make sure my home is pet safe and there isn't anything around that could hurt them or get them sick.
About: My name is Amelia and I am in college studying animal sciences. I have experience with dogs walking, cat and fish care, and would love to help you and your pets out in any way I can! I’m currently a full time student, so I can pop in and out mid morning and in between classes throughout the week. I will make sure the animal gets a good chunk of my time and attention and will make sure not to rush them. It’s important the animal is safe and stimulated while I am with them. If I am dropping in to feed or take care of your pet I will ensure a clean environment and that they are enriched until a caretaker returns. If I am taking your pet on a walk I will cater to the dogs temperament and endurance. The pet’s experience (and their bathroom/food needs) is optimized.
About: I’ve been taking care of various animals since I turned 13. I’ve been trusted to walk multiple dogs at one time, care for senior cats and administer medicine to special needs animals. I have a big love for all animals and make sure to give every pet the love they deserve. I’m heading into my junior year at the University of Vermont studying wildlife/fisheries biology and animal science. I’m living downtown but I have a car and am excited to give some love to your pets!! Im working part time and am very flexible when it comes to providing love to your furry friends! I’d be more than happy to do drop ins, overnights or daily/weekly dog walks! As always, it depends on the pets individual needs but Im a very active person who enjoys taking dogs for long walks and runs and accommodating their needs! I have a car so can travel to your dog and also drive them to fun new places (rail trails and hikes).
About: I have been working with animals for the last ten years. Started working in dog daycares and moved my way up to vet medicine where i now am a vet technician. I am patient and understanding to all pets personalities and ages. I am currently working 3 days a week on a specialty service at a veterinary hospital. My weekends are typically free and I would love to fill the time with your furry loved ones. Will be very respectful of your home and make giving your sweet boy or girl my devoted attention. Back yard fence in play is great but leash walks are also great!
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: Dog walking experience in Burlington for 1 year. 3 years of experience working on a farm caring for horses, goats, sheep, and cats. I also grew up in a household with a dog and a cat. I'm living in NYC for the summer before starting my freshman year at the University of Vermont. I am available most days as I am only living here for the summer. I have a friendly lab mix named Nellie who can happily keep your dog company. I am willing to take your dog to the dog run if needed.
“Sarah was amazing!! She provided wonderful care for my 13-year-old dog, visiting four times a day to walk her, manage her picky eating, and administer daily medication. All while giving her lots of love and snuggles:) Sarah’s proactive updates, photos, and FaceTimes gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the care she showed that my girl was in excellent hands. I highly recommend Sarah’s services to anyone looking for a caring, communicative, and reliable sitter! And I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”

We were so lucky to find Mary on Rover. She was amazing. She definitely put our minds at ease while we were away, not having to worry about our Cat. She checked in every day that she was there and asked questions if she had any. We will definitely use Mary next time we go away! A+++ pet sitter!
