“Sonya was amazing! She is obviously a dob lover - attentive and kind, noticing the details and enjoying the work. We felt 100% confident with our dog in her care and would happily work with her again. She was communicative and easy to relate to - we are grateful!”


“Nicholas was a great caretaker for our 9 year old dog. He has a great backyard which our dog loved and a warm family environment. Nicholas was very flexible with us as our plans changed and he is extremely easy to work with. Would highly recommend and we are going to rebook.”

“Christina and Jason say that 'while your dog is with us, your dog is our dog', and they really mean it. They truly understand and love dogs. There is absolutely nothing else I could want in a pet sitter. I am so grateful to have found them. My dog is pretty darn happy about it too.”

“Rosan did a wonderful job watching Kennedy. She is nervous in new places and it seems like she was calm as could be in their home. She had a great time playing with their dog Auggie and came back home tired and happy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Elfy had a wonderful stay with Natalie Patrick and their daughter. They are very welcoming and attentive. Good communication with photos. Their dog is very friendly.”

“John and his family were as amazing as they always are. I am so relieved to have found someone I trust with my dog. She has the time of her life when she goes to John’s. She jumps out of the car and runs to his yard without a second thought for me, which she does not do anywhere else. He was also willing to watch her at the very last minute, which was really nice of him.”

“Christopher and his family are lovely. We felt very comfortable leaving out dog with them knowing how caring they are towards aanimals. They were also great at communicating and accommodating our schedule and needs..Will definitely use them again!”

“Jyotidipta and his family took exceptional care of Luna. From the start, they were warm, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. Luna can be a bit anxious when meeting someone new, but they handled it with patience and care, making sure she felt safe and at ease within just a few hours. Their home environment is attentive and engaging. Jyotidipta’s son played a big role in keeping Luna active and happy, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and walks throughout the day. I especially appreciated the regular updates. The photos and videos gave me full peace of mind and showed just how much attention and affection she was receiving. It’s clear Luna was not just looked after, but genuinely cared for. I would confidently recommend Jyotidipta to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful caregiver.”


“Gwynn is amazing. She paid attention to exactly the attention (exercise, etc.) that Martie needed and even sent us pictures of their adventures. Martie was exhausted when we got home!”

“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!”


“Christina was amazing! Lots of photos, walks, playing outside. Our flight was delayed and she was very flexible and very agreeably kept our dog an extra day. She did all the changes on the website for us. She answered all communication right away. Will use again for sure!! THANK YOU Christina!”

“Julia was AWESOME. In fact, I worried that our dog, Tucker, would end up preferring to stay with her rather than come home with us! She watched our very enthusiastic 1.5 year old golden retriever for the weekend, and took him on hikes, had him splashing in brooks and meeting goats. She was easy to get in touch with, accepted our last minute booking (including squeezing in a meet and greet prior) and sent great photos. 10/10 recommend!!”

“If you’re looking for a serene, loving environment for your pup, AnnaRose is the perfect sitter for you! My beagle, Maya, enjoyed the company of AnnaRose’s two calm, sweet dogs—and having their company helped her to settle in right away. AnnaRose was attentive to Maya’s needs, showered her with love, and provided tons of updates to give me peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

“Deborah did an amazing job with our two rowdy dogs. Both have their particularities, and idiosyncrasies and Deborah made sure that they were safe, well-cared for and fulfilled during their stay. She was easy to communicate with, responsive and answered all of our questions. Her property is really well set-up for dog guests, and very securely fenced (one of our dogs is a flight risk so I always double check!). I am so grateful to have connected with Deborah and will definitely be reaching out in the future!”


“Absolute lifesaver! Not only was she able to care for Echo when a last minute emergency came up, she kept me posted on how she was behaving the whole time. My dog has anxiety and every picture I received made it clear Echo felt comfortable and safe. I'm super grateful for what she was able to do”

About: I have spent my whole life with pets and love to spend time with animals! I've been pet sitting the past 10 years part-time for friends, family and neighbors. I work remotely, allowing for flexibility for dog walks and house sitting. I work remotely and my schedule is relatively flexible, so I'm available for walks, drop in or house sitting pretty easily! With a little notice, I can work from your home and care for pets full-time, or stop by for walks as needed. I don't currently have any pets of my own, so your pet(s) will get all my attention. I like to communicate with the owners ahead of time to discuss their pet's schedule and needs (food, meds, length of walk, etc.)

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mara. She did twice daily drop ins and walks with my 3 Australian shepherds and kitty in my camper and followed all my crazy routines/ niche camper instructions to a T. She was timely, communicative and I know my babies were loved on in my absence. My trip ended up being delayed >30 hours and ended up with 3 additional checkins. Mara and her flexibility are the only reason I stayed sane throughout my ordeal- knowing above all my family was taken care of. 10/10. I would recommend Mara to anyone looking for peace of mind any time they need to leave town!”

“Lorrie always did a fantastic job looking after my cat. He tends to revert back into “stray mode” with most new folks, but she look her time and managed to get him to feel safe and comfortable. I hope Lorrie can look after Champ again in the future. I highly recommend her!”


About: I have actively been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager, and in doing so I have worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and dog of different ages. My manner of minding focuses on building a connection with the dog while uniquely understanding the breed and the specific needs they may need met. I'm very active and thus great with dogs who are looking to get in shape or have high energy levels. I have experience working with dogs who have been abused or neglected and re-socialising them. My home is large enough for multiple dogs of many sizes to be comfortable in as well as a short walk away from multiple parks. Both mornings as well nights are currently available Monday-Sunday.
About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!

“Laura was stellar at caring for my pets. Very communicative and kind. My animals did not seem stressed at all when I returned home - I think a very good sign they were in great hands!”


About: In the last decade+ I've taken care of nearly a dozen cats for friends and through word-of-mouth, and I always had cats (and dogs) around growing up. My parents' three rescue cats are still my sweeties. In the past I volunteered at an animal shelter, where my favorite thing to do was hang out with the cats and help socialize them. I have a calm, gentle demeanor that even shy, skittish cats usually come to trust.
About: *PRIVATELY INSURED✅ *CPR CERTIFIED/FIRST AID TRAINED 🩹 ***Please be sure to look through my entire profile, photo album and reviews before reaching out, thank you!*** Growing up in a small town in Vermont, where there were more cows than people, I developed a passion for all animals early on. I spent my summers in high school working with horses before working at my first dog daycare and haven’t stopped working with dogs since! Over the last decade, I have worked at well-regarded animal care companies in Vermont and around the Boston area and recently transitioned from a top-rated dog training/off leash hiking company to providing private, full-time dog care services. Fun facts about me: •I love sharks ◡̈ •I went to school for Graphic Design Serving Middlebury and adjacent communities, my mission revolves around the care and enrichment of my furry friends so I will be with your pup at all times! As someone who has worked with countless animals with many different personalities, making each one feel safe and welcome is most important to me. It is my job to create a clean, safe and fun environment. Your dog will have access to my fully fenced in private back yard with my supervision throughout their stay! I understand that every animal has different needs and desires and I will do everything to make sure your furry family member is comfortable!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets. I’m comfortable with young & senior pets, and those needing extra patience or routine. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away.
“Kristy did a great job taking care of my cat over the holidays! She showed up promptly each morning and stayed in touch the entire time. I would definitely hire her again and/or recommend her to anyone else!”

“Alma took fantastic care of my 2 cats. Both require an inhaler for asthma and she was very receptive to learning the ropes on their daily care. My cats were instantly comfortable with her! I look forward to booking with Alma again!”

“Laurie did a fantastic job with Stella! She communicated with us was very professional and went above and beyond to take care of Stella! Laurie is very knowledgeable and friendly! We will ask for Laurie’s help again. I would highly recommend her.”

“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my two cats. She stayed in my house with them for over a week during Christmas and New Years, was a great communicator, kept me updated with photos, and I felt very reassured leaving my pets with someone so responsible. Upon my return everything was tidy, the cats were well fed with extra food and water laid out, and litter boxes cleaned. It was a great experience and so wonderful having her take care of them while I was away so I could relax and enjoy my vacation worry free.”

“I recently hired Jess to take care of my Tommy while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Jess was professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about animals. During our meet-and-greet, Jess took the time to understand my pet’s routine and needs, which put my mind at ease. When I returned, my Tommy was happy and well-cared for, which is the best indicator of a great pet sitter. I highly recommend Jess to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their furry family members!”


“Jaime took great care of my two cats. They can be a little skeptical of strangers but she had no trouble gaining their trust! Also very happy with the level of communication and care she took to leave the house clean. Would absolutely recommend!”

About: I've had dogs since I was born, have worked in shelters and keep raising my own puppy dog. I give dogs multiple walks and play with them. If necessary I take them hiking, play fetch outdoor and give them lots of love an attention. I will make your dog feel like family and help with any training that you're working on. I would love to have many digs but at the moment we can only afford one as we travel through occasionally. I work from home Monday through Friday so I am there 24/7 to support and hang out with your pet. We usually do at least a morning walk, lunch quick outing and afternoon longer walk. Our home has an unfenced yard. I will walk your pet on a leash through our trails. I will follow your pet’s schedule and they will be allowed in the open house including couch and bed if that is part of their lifestyle.
“Thank you!! This was on short notice and I also changed pick up time, both of which were no problem. Great communication and def made me feel very comfortable leaving our pet there. This isn’t something we do a-lot especially since this fall when he was diagnosed with a degenerative issue. Very, very nice setting for dogs! Super nice family and would highly recommend.”

“Thank you Rosen, it is always easy and helpful to have your assistance when you are available. Maple and schnitzel had a great time and were very happy when I picked them up!”


“Doodle had a great time at Christina’s house. He loved playing with her dogs in the back yard. Christina sent me pictures and kept me updated. I’ll definitely bring him back again.”

“John is more than amazing. He is so caring, loving and kind to our Pup. Milkyway is so happy when we leave him and the entire family makes pup feel at home. I knew the first time I met John and his family they were an excellent choice. They treat pup as if he is one of their very own furr babies. I highly recommend John. Don’t think twice, contact John for his services.”

About: I grew up with many animals, both my own pets, and animals on my grandfather's dairy farm (he was also a vet). I live in the country in Richmond, and have cats, young kids and animals Rover won't let me name in the description...but they provide eggs. We have dogs in our "extended family" and we are well accustomed to dogs but we do not have one ourselves at this time. If your dog is 100% safe with those people and pets and well-behaved, let's talk! Independently insured. We enjoy hosting dogs, and are home most days of the week for most of the day. We enjoy walking with dogs and playing fetch (if dogs like to do that) on our hill in our yard. We would need to do a meet & greet to make sure it is a good match. Our yard is not fenced, and we are on a dirt road in the country with woods on the property and surrounding it, so dogs should not be prone to bolting etc. They must be 100% safe with young kids, cats and free range egg producers. No aggressive or reactive dogs please.

“Wonderful experience! We had never used Rover before and had to arrange care for Sadie at the last minute - Nicolas & family were quick to respond, took great care of our dog, and were so flexible around timing! Highly recommend!”

“Colby hosted our three pups in her home for a day and it was an amazing experience! She was extremely communicative and made sure to cater to each of our dog's individual needs.

About: As a lifelong dog owner, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve owned four Labrador Retrievers over the years and currently have one lovable lab, Ellie Bear, who absolutely loves making new furry friends. My experience goes far beyond basic pet care — my first dog, Nala, had a litter of 8 puppies, giving me hands-on experience with canine pregnancy, birthing, newborn puppy care, feeding schedules, socialization, and raising puppies in a safe, loving environment. I understand the importance of patience, routine, exercise, affection, and making pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having companionship, I treat every dog like family. 🐾 🐾 Availability & Care Schedule 🐾 Your pup will never be left alone — someone will always be home 24/7, whether it’s myself, Pep, or Kevin. We provide a safe, loving, family-style environment where dogs receive constant attention, care, and companionship. Each day includes: • Plenty of playtime and exercise • Snuggles, affection, and personalized attention • Potty breaks and outdoor time • A cozy, stress-free environment where your dog is treated like family 🐻🐾 I am currently available for: • Weekend boarding • Extended stays when needed • Flexible scheduling depending on availability My goal is to make every pup feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away! Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We provide a loving, family-style environment where dogs are treated like one of our own. We have a large fenced-in yard perfect for running, playing, fetch, and getting lots of energy out safely. Our chocolate lab, Ellie Bear, absolutely loves making new friends, chasing tennis balls, and cooling down afterward in the pet pool on warmer days! 🐻💦 For boarding stays, I can easily accommodate your dog’s sleeping preferences. If your pup is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when needed, or they can relax in a cozy dog bed for bedtime. And if your dog is used to extra snuggles and sleeping close to their humans, we don’t mind cuddles in bed either — we want them to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Most importantly, your dog will never be left alone. Someone will always be home 24/7 — whether it’s myself, or Kevin — so your pup will always have supervision, companionship, love, and care.

“Nicholas was a great caretaker for our 9 year old dog. He has a great backyard which our dog loved and a warm family environment. Nicholas was very flexible with us as our plans changed and he is extremely easy to work with. Would highly recommend and we are going to rebook.”

“Christina and Jason say that 'while your dog is with us, your dog is our dog', and they really mean it. They truly understand and love dogs. There is absolutely nothing else I could want in a pet sitter. I am so grateful to have found them. My dog is pretty darn happy about it too.”

“Rosan did a wonderful job watching Kennedy. She is nervous in new places and it seems like she was calm as could be in their home. She had a great time playing with their dog Auggie and came back home tired and happy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Elfy had a wonderful stay with Natalie Patrick and their daughter. They are very welcoming and attentive. Good communication with photos. Their dog is very friendly.”

“John and his family were as amazing as they always are. I am so relieved to have found someone I trust with my dog. She has the time of her life when she goes to John’s. She jumps out of the car and runs to his yard without a second thought for me, which she does not do anywhere else. He was also willing to watch her at the very last minute, which was really nice of him.”

“Christopher and his family are lovely. We felt very comfortable leaving out dog with them knowing how caring they are towards aanimals. They were also great at communicating and accommodating our schedule and needs..Will definitely use them again!”

“Jyotidipta and his family took exceptional care of Luna. From the start, they were warm, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. Luna can be a bit anxious when meeting someone new, but they handled it with patience and care, making sure she felt safe and at ease within just a few hours. Their home environment is attentive and engaging. Jyotidipta’s son played a big role in keeping Luna active and happy, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and walks throughout the day. I especially appreciated the regular updates. The photos and videos gave me full peace of mind and showed just how much attention and affection she was receiving. It’s clear Luna was not just looked after, but genuinely cared for. I would confidently recommend Jyotidipta to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful caregiver.”


“Gwynn is amazing. She paid attention to exactly the attention (exercise, etc.) that Martie needed and even sent us pictures of their adventures. Martie was exhausted when we got home!”

“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!”

“Julia was AWESOME. In fact, I worried that our dog, Tucker, would end up preferring to stay with her rather than come home with us! She watched our very enthusiastic 1.5 year old golden retriever for the weekend, and took him on hikes, had him splashing in brooks and meeting goats. She was easy to get in touch with, accepted our last minute booking (including squeezing in a meet and greet prior) and sent great photos. 10/10 recommend!!”

“Deborah did an amazing job with our two rowdy dogs. Both have their particularities, and idiosyncrasies and Deborah made sure that they were safe, well-cared for and fulfilled during their stay. She was easy to communicate with, responsive and answered all of our questions. Her property is really well set-up for dog guests, and very securely fenced (one of our dogs is a flight risk so I always double check!). I am so grateful to have connected with Deborah and will definitely be reaching out in the future!”

“Ruchi and her family are the best! My dog Maya spent her Easter weekend with her and her family and she absolutely loved it! They were amazing at communicating and updating me with photos , and Maya felt right at home! Thank you, we will definitely be booking again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad Shannon was my first dog-sitter. She took great care of my 6-month old black lab Rain. She took her on walks and made her feel at home. Knowing I was a bit anxious about leaving Rain with a new person, Shannon sent me a picture and a short message letting me know she was doing great. I would definitely book with her again!”


“Charlene took wonderful care of my 5 month old puppy while we were gone for a long weekend. She was happy to do the extra work a puppy sometimes requires, like giving her eye drops and softening her food with some pumpkin (that I provided). Our pup was safe and happy, and loved spending the weekend with Charlene and her dogs.”
