Personalized care for your dog or cat - Burgin
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Burgin
“Sandra is the best! She takes excellent care of Barnaby, and always sends pictures and updates. We had some issues trying to get back to him and ended up not getting back until way after we planned on, but she was very understanding and happy to care for him longer.”
“Kathryn is a great sitter! Our pup gets lots of personal attention as she will only accept one family at a time and works from home. He loves having kids around during the day and playing ball in her fenced yard. Kathryn is easy to communicate with and we feel much better about leaving our pup in her care than boarding, especially when she sends pictures and updates, which we love. She is always out top choice when when our pup cannot travel with us!”
“We have used Dina multiple times. She is great with the pups and I know they have a great time. They always come home exhausted. Dina also sends lots of pictures/ updates, which I really appreciate.”
“Valerie was excellent! She took great of our dog, sent regular updates, and managed his eye condition well. An added bonus is her sweet dog Ollie who was great company for our dog and kept him at ease.”
“Erin and her family are phenomenal! They sent pics and updates everyday. My dog, Tilly, really took to them and if she feels at ease, I feel at ease. I would 100% use them again to care for my sweet pup.”
“Brent is a good person and a great dog sitter. Maple and Mozzie's (Brent's dog) first meeting went great. They played very well together. The day we dropped off Maple at Brent's home, he and his wife were very friendly and inviting with us and our dog Maple. They explained everything involved with Maple's stay and activities in their home. He kept us updated with pictures and texts. I would definitely recommend Brent and Rover to other pet owners.”
“We went out of town for a week leaving our one year old Bulldog with Nef. He came to meet our dog and even accommodated transportation. My dog is very picky on who she likes however it was love from first sight. This was the first time we had to board our dog and now we have our go to person for life. Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”
“Jason and Brooke welcomed Winston as one of their own. They communicated very effectively and timely. Winston had some stomach issues while we were away and they were so patient and kept us informed on his tummy stuff. We will definitely rebook again!”
“Kelso was absolutely phenomenal!! She is truly an expert on all things related to cats, so my cat was in the best hands and I learned lots of new information on best practices to be a better cat mom :) Kelso gave comprehensive updates on a daily basis and really went above and beyond to make sure my little boy was comfortable and taken care of. I highly recommend Kelso—my cat will definitely be back during my next trip!”
“I could tell my boy Burley loved staying here! My eight-day trip had been the longest I’ve been away and my anxiety-prone aussiedoodle. He was definitely in excellent hands. Plenty of room to play out in the country! Highly recommend to anyone. Nancy did an amazing job”
“Laura was so great. She took great care of my dog. She took her on walks, gave me updates on how she was doing, and even took her to get an ice cream cone. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Laura and will forsure use her again soon!”
“Maggie is sweet! Our dog seemed to have a great time with her, her dog, and cats. Her dog took a bit of time to warm up to our dog, but it seemed they became good friends shortly thereafter.”
“Jennifer is so thorough, and she and her dog have provided a delightful environment for Lulu to play, rest and enjoy herself! Lulu highly recommends her! (Told me so herself!)”
“Ann was great with my little dog. She was easy to communicate with and answered my questions quickly. I was surprised to see Ann had 2 large dogs of her own. That’s on me, I should have asked if she had large dogs. I got really nervous about leaving Scruffy because his back has been injured a couple of times by larger dogs. Ann was very reassuring and took good care of Scruffy. She also sent lots of photos to help easy my mind. I will be using Ann again.”
“Kimberly and her husband are fantastic! They agreed to watch my babies on very short notice and I couldn't be happier with how they were taken care of! The girls had free run of the yard and even got to sleep in the bed and cuddle all night (their favorite thing). I got several text updates/pictures and even 2 printed pictures when I came to pick them up. Kimberly and Steve are total dog lovers and I will be using them often in the future!”
“Martha did such a wonderful job looking after our little Gumbo! There was great communication and she clearly loves and has great experience with taking care of pups! Gumbo was extremely relaxed and happy when we picked him up after a long stay. We are so grateful to have found such a great boarding option!!”
“5 stars. Left Siberian Husky that I recently adopted for a weekend. I was a bit nervous ... first because it would have been first time dog was left at another home and second because it was the first time I used Allison & Justin. They did a wonderful job, sent me pictures and updates and Sheila (Husky) was happy to be there AND happy to see me return. No problems and very well cared for. I'll definitely use them again!”

She goes above and beyond to spend a few extra minutes with boy, making sure he gets the positive attention he needs. Thanks so much Tayler!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life—both indoor and outdoor—so I know how to read their moods and keep them happy. I’ve also gained hands-on experience working at a humane society and a veterinarian’s office, giving me confidence in feeding, administering medication, and spotting health concerns. I love making sure every cat feels safe, loved, and well cared for—from playtime to keeping their litter box sparkling clean. Your furry family members will be in caring hands!

“Sandra took really good care of our furry kids while we were gone for a week on vacation. So good to have somebody we can trust to come at the times requested and does everything our cats needed!”
“Dyanne stayed an extra night when we had an emergency. She was very understanding, and so kind-hearted. She is the most amazing and dependable Rover pet sitter we ever had!!”
About: I’ve fostered many cats and kittens growing up, so I’m very familiar with feline behavior, from curious kittens to more reserved or senior cats. I’m comfortable with everything from bottle-feeding babies to administering medications and giving extra TLC to shy or older cats. I understand how important it is to keep litter boxes clean, feeding schedules consistent, and routines calm—especially for cats who are sensitive to changes in their environment. My goal is always to make your cat feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and often helped out with my neighbors animals as needed. I enjoy walking so that is always good to have them as company I do work full time but my hours verify. So it would be good for those that don’t have the normal 9-5 job that everyone else has. Walking and playing and of course talking to them. Being aware and watching the dog truly helps understand what they need and when they need it
“I wholeheartedly recommend these guys! They are always happy to follow all my requests and are prompt in replying to messages. I trust them completely to take care of our kitty!”
About: My first job was working at a vet clinic with dogs and 20 years later I’m still passionate about what I do!

I am a current member of APDT Association of professional dog trainers, working towards my dog training certification. I love all breeds but I especially love working with bully breeds. Many boarding facilities do not allow these breeds of dog. Most are just big cuddle bugs, and I am happy to oblige!

“Angela and her family did a great job taking care of our kitten, Rory. They sent updates to the number we gave them regularly and so we didn't have to worry. It made our trip much less stressful. When we arrived all of Rory's things were ready to go and the litter box was clean, which we appreciated. We know kittens can be a handful so we were very pleased with Angela watching her.”
About: I am a dog mom of two! They are my world, but I have never met an animal I didn’t like!! Small or big they are all special and need love!! I work as a caregiver in the evenings Monday through Thursday 3:30-10 and Friday 3:30-8. So I am available all other hours of the day. I also have the flexibility if I must to make a quick stop by during working hours if I need. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs who love making new friends and having play dates! I believe that the house is there home and they are welcome to sleep and lay on the couches and beds!!
About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.
About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life, including those that are divas and seniors that need more care. I have cat sat for my neighbors, friends, and family.
About: I have over four years of experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I take extra care to keep feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, and daily habits consistent. I am comfortable administering medications when needed, cleaning litter boxes thoroughly, and spending quality time playing or simply keeping your cat company. My goal is to make sure every cat feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you are away.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience dog sitting and dog walking for family, friends, and others. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs.

I’m also comfortable administering medications, including oral medicine, pills, eye drops, and other medications as directed by the owner. I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s routine carefully and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and work around their usual routines. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting and can be flexible with timing based on each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in their home, I always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m respectful of each home and pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, medications, and anything else that helps keep pets safe. I want owners to feel confident knowing their pets are in loving and responsible hands, and I’ll treat every pet like my own!

“Nancy took good care of my pug. I left him with her while in town for a wedding. He enjoyed her fenced in yard and the other dogs. I would use her services again if ever back in town. She was also flexible when I needed her to keep him a little longer because of not knowing when exactly the wedding would be over.”

“Sandra is the best! She takes excellent care of Barnaby, and always sends pictures and updates. We had some issues trying to get back to him and ended up not getting back until way after we planned on, but she was very understanding and happy to care for him longer.”
“Kathryn is a great sitter! Our pup gets lots of personal attention as she will only accept one family at a time and works from home. He loves having kids around during the day and playing ball in her fenced yard. Kathryn is easy to communicate with and we feel much better about leaving our pup in her care than boarding, especially when she sends pictures and updates, which we love. She is always out top choice when when our pup cannot travel with us!”
“Erin and her family are phenomenal! They sent pics and updates everyday. My dog, Tilly, really took to them and if she feels at ease, I feel at ease. I would 100% use them again to care for my sweet pup.”
“Brent is a good person and a great dog sitter. Maple and Mozzie's (Brent's dog) first meeting went great. They played very well together. The day we dropped off Maple at Brent's home, he and his wife were very friendly and inviting with us and our dog Maple. They explained everything involved with Maple's stay and activities in their home. He kept us updated with pictures and texts. I would definitely recommend Brent and Rover to other pet owners.”
“We went out of town for a week leaving our one year old Bulldog with Nef. He came to meet our dog and even accommodated transportation. My dog is very picky on who she likes however it was love from first sight. This was the first time we had to board our dog and now we have our go to person for life. Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”
“Jason and Brooke welcomed Winston as one of their own. They communicated very effectively and timely. Winston had some stomach issues while we were away and they were so patient and kept us informed on his tummy stuff. We will definitely rebook again!”
“Kelso was absolutely phenomenal!! She is truly an expert on all things related to cats, so my cat was in the best hands and I learned lots of new information on best practices to be a better cat mom :) Kelso gave comprehensive updates on a daily basis and really went above and beyond to make sure my little boy was comfortable and taken care of. I highly recommend Kelso—my cat will definitely be back during my next trip!”
“I could tell my boy Burley loved staying here! My eight-day trip had been the longest I’ve been away and my anxiety-prone aussiedoodle. He was definitely in excellent hands. Plenty of room to play out in the country! Highly recommend to anyone. Nancy did an amazing job”
“Laura was so great. She took great care of my dog. She took her on walks, gave me updates on how she was doing, and even took her to get an ice cream cone. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Laura and will forsure use her again soon!”
“Jennifer is so thorough, and she and her dog have provided a delightful environment for Lulu to play, rest and enjoy herself! Lulu highly recommends her! (Told me so herself!)”
“Ann was great with my little dog. She was easy to communicate with and answered my questions quickly. I was surprised to see Ann had 2 large dogs of her own. That’s on me, I should have asked if she had large dogs. I got really nervous about leaving Scruffy because his back has been injured a couple of times by larger dogs. Ann was very reassuring and took good care of Scruffy. She also sent lots of photos to help easy my mind. I will be using Ann again.”
“Kimberly and her husband are fantastic! They agreed to watch my babies on very short notice and I couldn't be happier with how they were taken care of! The girls had free run of the yard and even got to sleep in the bed and cuddle all night (their favorite thing). I got several text updates/pictures and even 2 printed pictures when I came to pick them up. Kimberly and Steve are total dog lovers and I will be using them often in the future!”
“5 stars. Left Siberian Husky that I recently adopted for a weekend. I was a bit nervous ... first because it would have been first time dog was left at another home and second because it was the first time I used Allison & Justin. They did a wonderful job, sent me pictures and updates and Sheila (Husky) was happy to be there AND happy to see me return. No problems and very well cared for. I'll definitely use them again!”
“Excellent!! These are the NICEST people to take care of my dog!!! I will always check with them first! Polite, considerate, accommodating, reliable and professional.”
“Guadalupe was amazing with Cinder! She sent multiple daily updates with pictures and videos, and it was clear Cinder was spoiled with love and attention. We’ll definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Went well, my pup seems happy and well taken care of. A little hard to communicate, but they were flexible with my pickup and drop off times. They took him to the dog park and on multiple walks.”
