“Outstanding experience w Ella! She is a proactive communicator and was wonderfully patient with our beloved spicy cat. Ella sent thorough updates along with photos after each visit so that we had peace of mind each day we were away. I’ll absolutely reach back out to Ella for any future pet sitting needs!”
“Daniel's been training Clea (and me) as well as walking her, he's attentive and kind and loving. She's a very sweet dog who means well and learns quickly, but she can get carried away - his presence in her life has made a big, calming difference. Thank you Daniel.”
About: Hi! I'm Nicolas. I am home full-time, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs and cats I care for. We live in a large two-story house in South Burlington with a big yard where dogs can run and play safely. Please note that since I have a 20-month-old son, any dog staying with us must be completely comfortable and safe around young children. As a stay-at-home dad, I am at the house full-time, making it incredibly easy to fit dedicated pet care into my daily routine. I offer specialized services tailored to your pets' needs, including both cat and dog boarding at my home, where your furry friends will enjoy constant company and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also offer dog walking and 30 to 60-minute home visits at your location. Whether it's strictly following feeding and medication schedules, managing frequent potty breaks, or taking your dog out for a great walk to break up their day, you can rest assured your companions will receive premium care while staying completely on their regular routine. In my home: Your pets will have plenty of room to comfortable and safe in our large two-story house. Since I am home full-time, I provide constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. I ensure a safe, organized environment for both visiting dogs and cats, strictly following their regular feeding, potty, litter, and medication schedules so they feel right at home. At your home: I follow your exact instructions to respect your pet's routine, whether I am dropping by for a 30 to 60-minute visit or taking your dog out for a walk. I make sure your home stays secure, doors are locked, and your pet gets their regular feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks exactly as they do when you are there.
“Ashley did a fine job watching our car for a few days around Thanksgiving 2025. She sent daily pictures and kept us updated on the house and the cat. We will definitely book with her again! Ashley is a real pro!”
“Sage was a great sitter for my finicky kitty! She was extremely responsive when I first inquired about a booking and continued to be communicative while we were away. She also persisted even when my cat gave her a hard time about taking her nightly medication. We were extremely happy with Sage and would book her again!”
“Charlotte did a great job checking in on my cat Ash over a weekend. She provided frequent updates and communication was easy. Would definitely recommend her and will keep her in mind for the future!”
“Jamie has been a great support in the past, and similarly did well with her care of my little dog this time around! The only issue that came about was communication, but such was improved upon during our booking dates. Overall, she is a great sitter who displays good care and expertise with watching over my little old dog, and I would definitely recommend her :)”
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 family has had dogs since I was 14. Out first dog was a German Shepard and second a German Shepard/Husky mix. Currently my Sheppard Husky mix resides in North Carolina staying with my mother as we were worried how he would do with a big move. I have always loved dogs and their companionship. It would be a privilege to take care of another’s fur baby. I currently have the sweetest little dachshound that I rescued in September of 2024 and we have been inseparable ever since, he is truly my child. I take my dog Beanie on longer walks about 2x a day and shorter ones through the day. I am mostly available on Fridays and weekends and after 5pm on Monday - Thursday My yard is not fenced in but there are many dog parks and safe places to play in my neighborhood. I love taking long walks and they are even better with a fiery companion.
“Anna is awesome! Our cat warmed up to Anna super quickly and she is clearly a loving, caring, thoughtful pet owner and caretaker. We’ll absolutely book Anna again!”
“Victoria did a super job catsitting for us. She was very communicative with questions, our cat seemed to like her (which is unusual!) and we came home to a clean house and happy cat.”
“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!”
“Christine is awesome, and takes great care to adapt to the needs of the power she's caring for. This was my second time booking with her and would definitely do so again.”
About: I’ve had my own dogs all my life and have sat and walked pets professionally for around 2 years, so I am equipped with the skills necessary to keep pets safe and happy. I’ve had one-time clients or recurring clients — whatever the owner needs! I love pets and have always gotten along well when I meet a friend’s pet, hence my interest in expanding this passion. I am currently in medical school and my schedule is relatively flexible - I am able to walk your pets, drop in to make sure they’re okay, or stay with them all day! I generally have classes in the mornings and afternoons mostly off. I am available for walks or overnight stays depending on the pet parent’s request. I am happy to work with clients and figure out a schedule that works for them! I abide by all rules the owner set. I will inquire ahead of time of any special needs the pet has or certain routines from the owner. I am not there to intrude - just offer the same level of care and love as the dog would normally get! I also understand some pets may be anxious with a new person in the house, so I will do my best to ease into my position and offer a lot of comfort to the pets before trying to play with them or feed them.
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.
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: Hey! Im Skye! I’m a senior at the university of Vermont studying political science and history. I’ve had pets from gerbils to horses my entire life and have cared for pets with special needs, disabilities, and aggression. I would love to spend some quality time with your pup or kitty whether it be snuggling all day or going for a hike! My number one priority is your pet’s safety and well being. —— Open to boarding smaller or low energy dogs, must be okay with cat in house. My schedule varies, but I work from home most of the time. If im watching your pup it will be a day I work from home so I can give them attention throughout the day. If watching a pet in your home, I follow the provided instructions, while ensuring to keep everything clean and tidy. If boarding in my home, your pet is welcome to the entire apartment, when supervised, and will mostly hang out in the living room or my room. Pets are allowed on couches and beds. We do have a cat in the home that will ignore the dog as long as it is not aggressive towards her.

South Burlington cat parents share their Rover experiences
We feel so lucky to have found Anna! Every time we go away we know our boy is not only safe and cared for, but loved and entertained! Seeing our shy boy rolling on his back for cuddles and zooming around after his toys warms our hearts and puts huge smiles on our faces! Anna is the best.
Kristy was great with my two cats. She made friends with my older cat immediately when she stopped by to get instructions. And my younger cat who usually takes quite awhile to warm up to new people came out during her very first drop-in visit with them. I could tell from the pictures she sent that he wasn't even nervous. She was very communicative and left detailed notes about her visits. I plan to book her again in the future and definitely recommend her!
Victoria did a great job with my three bunnies. She was very communicative and took pictures and updates on how they were doing everyday. She followed all the care instructions I left and took special care of my oldest bunny who is 12. Thank you so much!! I'd love to rebook in the future.
Sage was a fantastic sitter for our two cats, providing daily updates and photos. Our two cats can be a bit anxious around new people and it takes the right person to gain their trust. Sage had no problem with that which was a huge relief. I would definitely recommend Sage as a pet sitter for your cats.
Minaz was wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure our two cats were well cared for while we were out of town for a few days. She sent thorough updates with each visit, made sure our pets received their medications, and sent pictures of our cats playing, eating, and being goofballs while we were gone. We'll definitely be contacting her in the future whenever we need someone to look after our pets while we're gone!
Nida did great with my very shy kitty and was attentive to his needs and body language. I also had to make some changes to how his medicine was administered after our initial check in and she was very gracious. Also an excellent report card photographer! I'd absolutely rebook her if I had to go away again.
