“Julian and Jocelyn are excellent hosts! My husband and I were faced with a situation where our usual hosts were not available and we needed to leave our Boston terrier in new hands for a month; also the longest duration we were separated from our baby to date. Needless to say, this was not an easy decision for us. From the moment we corresponded with Julian and Jocelyn are fears were put to ease. They are extremely professional and responsive to emails and texts. We were able to schedule a meet and greet and were impressed by the questions they asked to understand our dogs needs and personality. As soon we entered their home, Layla felt very comfortable and relaxed. She was able to quickly pick up on Julian and Jocelyn's calm and warming energy. At one point our Layla made herself comfortable on their couch and completely settled right in. While we were traveling we received beautiful photos (these really are professional grade pictures) of Layla and warm updates about their time together, which we loved. In the pictures we could see how calm and relaxed Layla was. Julian and Jocelyn also went out of their way to keep Layla active and even bathed her when they felt she needed it. They were also very flexible with changes to our schedule. Working with Julian and Jocelyn was an absolute pleasure and knowing our dog was in such good hands made our trip so much less stressful. We highly recommend Jocelyn and Julian and will definitely leave Layla in their great care in the future. I know she misses them already! Thank you Jocelyn and Julian! We'll be in touch again soon. ◦ Caryn, Mike & Layla”
“Catherine and her husband are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and will work around your dogs needs. We got a bunch of pictures and they had so many fun adventures during that time.”
“John has been amazing. I was very nervous to leave my active, high-energy, anxious dog for a week but ended up feeling like she had the time of her life. She was SO happy with John. He provided frequent updates and photographs and gave her endless exercise and care. From the photos and her behavior afterwards, I can tell that she was so happy and well-cared for by John and his family. I would recommend him to anyone!”
“JD and his family took excellent care of my two dogs, Dot and Tot. They were caring, meticulous about schedules, and communicative to me throughout the weekend. Their house is located next to a large park with a variety of hiking trails - an excellent location providing plenty of walking and exercise opportunities. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again when I come back up!”
“Aiden was great with Lana. He sent photos of her, got out for walks and was very responsive to questions. She came back happy and healthy. Will for sure be reaching out again for Lana in the future.”
“We can't thank Natalie & Patrick enough for the great care and love they showed Ziggy while they were watching him! They provided us with great updates throughout his stay with them. It was so nice to know that our pup was in great hands and having a great time. Their dog is also a great companion and Ziggy had a blast having a friend to hang out with during his stay!”
“Savannah was ready to jump in on short notice and our dog had a great weekend. She was very flexible about dropoff and pickup times, and from all outward indications our pooch was super happy.”
“Hannah was so kind and sweet with Bowie. I can tell that she really loves animals. He had a wonderful time, and we felt great knowing that he was with someone that really made sure he felt safe and cared for.”
“Ruchi was amazing with Frida! This was my first time leaving Frida with a pet sitter, so I was a little nervous, but Ruchi made the whole experience so much easier. She was very patient with Frida, especially at the beginning when she was a little nervous and unsure about being in a new place. Ruchi kept me updated throughout her stay, and it was so nice to see Frida becoming more and more comfortable with her and her family. When I picked Frida up, she was happy to see me, but she was also clearly very happy and comfortable with Ruchi. She even went back to her almost as if she was saying thank you and goodbye, which made me feel really good about leaving her there. Ruchi and her family are truly dog lovers, and you can tell they are very knowledgeable and experienced with dogs. I felt like Frida was in very good hands. I would definitely book with Ruchi again and highly recommend her! ❤️🐾”
“Rosan gave consistent updates and photos to keep me fully informed about my dogs stay. My pup had a lot of fun playing with their dog and was well taken care of.”
“Laura is the best dog sitter. She likes to make sure each dog will fit into the “pack” environment with her other dogs. My dog loved being around other dogs! It was like summer camp. He was very well cared for. I would highly recommend Laura.”
“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Sonya! She enjoyed socializing with other doggy friends during her visit and she loved having an affectionate caretaker at her side. We were thrilled to receive daily updates and look forward to sending her back.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience, I have had the pleasure of caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My experience spans from handling playful puppies to providing tender care for senior pets from friends and family for over five years. I am free this July until August and otherwise I will be going to UVM this fall so my availability will vary based on my schedule. I’m not planning on taking any pets to my house since it is not pet safe. I will gladly though pet sit in your house.
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds of decades - from dogs and cars and bunnies to chicken and horses and cows. I currently have my own to rescue fur babies - Paka a 13 year old tabby cat and Philo a 2 year old Bernese mountain dog. I’d love to help you take care of your pets as well! I work remotely and part-time so I like to walk dogs (any my cat who likes to join her giant little brother on walks) in the morning, at lunch, and in the evenings. I can’t board cats because my Tabby does not like other feline friends and I can only board dogs who are used to cats and okay with other dogs. Philo is very sweet and a gentle companion for nervous dogs. We take walks every 4-5 hours.
“Hannah took wonderful care of our miniature dachshund for the day. We had a ski trip planned and needed to have someone watch our shy girl while we were away. She was attentive, took her on multiple walks, and made pick up and drop off very easy. I definitely recommend Hannah and would have her pet sit again.”
“Aaron was a great fit for our dog - Miso loved spending the week with him. It took a few days for Miso to adjust to his first ever sitter and Aaron handled it well - checking in with us when he noticed that Miso wasn't eating and seemed a little home sick. By the end of the week, Miso seemed to be having a great time. Aaron sent pictures and updates throughout the week, which was really appreciated. We would highly recommend Aaron. He was open to meeting with us before we left on vacation and asked great questions (vet info, local contacts, likes and dislikes, etc). We usually leave Miso at a boarder, but since our trip was going to be longer than usual we were hoping to find someone local that could give Miso more personal attention and affection - Aaron made us feel comfortable leaving Miso with him for an extended period of time. Thanks for taking such good care of Miso for us, Aaron!”
“Sarah and her boyfriend are wonderful care takers! She sent me daily pictures while I was out and her adorable dog Lincoln played with Nala everyday! It made me happy to know she was having such a great time. In the event of an emergency, they are very accommodating and helpful”

We’re so happy we found Hannah! She was absolutely wonderful with Harry and took such great care of him while we were away. She sent updates, was super communicative, and it was clear Harry felt totally comfortable with her. It made being away so much easier knowing he was happy and in such good hands. We came home to a very happy Harry and would 100% have Hannah watch him again!
Harrison took great care of my dog Daisy while we were away for a week. He shared updates and photos and was super helpful about coordinating drop off/pick up - everything went smoothly. I would absolutely book with Harrison in the future when we travel; she had a great time!
JD and his family took excellent care of my two dogs, Dot and Tot. They were caring, meticulous about schedules, and communicative to me throughout the weekend. Their house is located next to a large park with a variety of hiking trails - an excellent location providing plenty of walking and exercise opportunities. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again when I come back up!
Nu was awesome! She watched our two dogs while we headed to Canada. She was incredibly kind, communicative, and compassionate while taking care of Jack and Pongo. Nu kept us informed with fun photos of activities while asking questions in order to tend to the dogs’ needs. Highly recommend to any dog owner 🙂

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Winooski
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Winooski on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 164 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Winooski. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Winooski sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Winooski landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Winooski home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Winooski.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Winooski sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
