1. Kayla D.

“Kayla was great with our eight month old puppy, Edna! Edna is super high energy and can be a lot with new people, but Kayla quickly made her comfortable. We came home to a happy sleeping puppy and plan to have Kayla take care of her in the future.”

Our dog has lots of every and loves to play and came back happy and tired! We’ll be happy to use Isaac again and would highly recommend him.”

“John was amazing! Rover sitter extraordinaire. His place is perfect for active dogs and Walden got tons of ball throwing and activity time. John’s communication was great — clear info and support for pickup/drop off and fun pics throughout the stay. Thanks and we will be back in a future Burlington trip!”

9. Laura C.


“What a tremendous experience we had with Laura and her family. We recently relocated to the greater Burlington area and were so fortunate to find Laura through DogVacay. We were used to having a neighbor stay in our home when we were on vacation and this is the first time our dogs have stayed in another home - so, we weren't sure how they would settle in. About two-weeks before our trip we took "the kids" to meet Laura and her family for a "bark-n-greet" visit. She explained how things worked, we met their dog, they showed us the area and it was evident that she and her husband both love dogs very much. Their dog was great and all three got on well. When the time came for us to drop them off the night before the trip both my wife and I had full confidence that we could go and enjoy ourselves without any worries. We brought, at Laura's urging, the dog beds, bowls, food, and toys. We received regular daily photo updates, via text messages, from Laura that gave us peace of mind and made us laugh at how well they had settled in. Our dogs had a great time. Our older dog had to have daily meds administered and that went off without a hitch. They went on walks, went to the dog park, and became 50-pound "lap-dogs" during their time with Laura and her family. I wasn't sure they wanted to come back home! We highly recommend Laura and will be using her services again and again.”

11. Anneke M.

12. Louis & Haley B.

“Louis and Haley are so kind, responsible, and clearly dog people! We appreciated the cute pictures and great care they took of our dog. Would definitely book with them again!”


13. Colby W.

“Colby was great! She made me feel comfortable about leaving my dog for a week. She got to know Daisy and supported her needs so she would feel comfortable away from home. Through out the week. I received updates and pictures. Daisy had so much fun learning and meeting new dogs.”


14. Mildred B.

“Wonderful as always!!”




15. Amanda G.

“Amanda was great! She sent us a bunch of pictures of Bowie while we were away. We felt confident knowing she had a bunch of experience working with other dogs.”


16. Georgia R.

“Georgia did a great job with Sage! Georgia was communicative and sent us pictures and updates. It was clear that Sage enjoyed her stay. Will definitely book with Georgia again!”


17. Paul M.

“Highly recommended!!! Paul was very responsive, shared pictures with me, and took very good care of my little pup. Timon was happy and I can tell he had a great time!”


18. Jackie M.

“The host and his wife are sweet and caring! Femi had a wonderful night with a lot of outdoor plays. I would come back again for sure and will recommend them to anyone who needs a great Rover host!!”


19. Dereck C.

“Dereck was amazing with Piper. Being an energetic doggo, Dereck knew exactly how to get her moving and exploring each day! He sent us pictures and videos of Piper loving life out in nature and relaxing in the home! She came back o e tired dog, which is fantastic! Would 100% have Dereck take care of Piper again!”


20. Christina K.

“Christina was an excellent host to Curie, our 8yr old female Labradane ! She was very accommodating and communicated often on how our dog was doing. She spent quality time to get to know her better and make her feel at home. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a 'home away from home' for their four-legged family members!”
