“Our dog can be a little skittish with new people, but she warmed right up to Alan and Luis! On her first day, they sent us great pictures of her running and playing. It was clear that she was already settled in and having so much fun. We have to plan another trip soon, so our pup can have another vacation with Alan and Luis!”
“They were very attentive to our dog. Professional sitters. I received Updates and pictures. Appreciated the communication. Very experienced with different dogs And take pride in making an inviting environment.”
“We had a great experience having him watch our two dogs for a week while we were on vacation. He was great with communication and sent us pictures and updates multiple times a day, which gave us peace of mind knowing the dogs were doing well. Our dogs loved him and seemed to have a great time the entire stay. He even let them enjoy the pool one day when it was really hot outside. Overall, he did an amazing job taking care of them, and we look forward to having him watch them again!”
“I recently had Gail take care of my dog, Dior, for a week while I was on vacation. The bond Gail and her dog Ginger formed with Dior was heartwarming. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, providing plenty of love and attention. Dior came home happy and well-exercised, which is a testament to the great care they received. Safety was a top priority for me, and I felt completely at ease knowing Gail was watching over my pet. [He/She/They] followed all instructions regarding feeding and I appreciated the regular updates and photos that kept me in the loop. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience with Gail. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“Anita and her family cared for my super timid dog Poncho for a week while we were out of town. Poncho had never been left anywhere before. He decided to go on a hunger strike and not eat/drink much. I had provided dry food and to try and get him to eat Anita went out and got wet food for him as well as gave him water with a syringe to make sure he was not dehydrated. I’m confident boarding him in a facility with a ton of dogs would have stressed him out more. Anita did a great job trying to make my nervous, quirky dog as comfortable as possible. Thankful that she and her family provided such good care to Poncho!”
“Triba is the best thing that could happen with a super worried cat mom, she arranged our video calls while I was away. She loved her like her own, she is definitely becoming her foster mom permanently ?”
“Nicole was great with our 2 French bulldogs! She took great care of them, and they loved her dog too! I’d absolutely recommend Nicole if you need to board your dog.”
“Katie and her family were wonderful sitters, giving updates and pictures daily as well as quick responses when messaged. They gave our dog lots of attention and cuddles, even bringing her with to their family Christmas! They also helped fill her stocking with toys and goodies, which our dog is still happily playing with. I would recommend Katie to anyone!”
“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”
“I think Biscuit loved staying with her, he tried to pull me back into her apt. when I picked him up. She sent plenty photos showing her dogs snuggling up with Biscuit like they were always best friends forever. Would book again!”
“Careen was so patient and caring with my dog during his stay! I can tell she won him over! He is normally very timid around other people but it sounds like he made himself right at home with her. 💜 Thank you!”
“Allison was great to work with from our first contact with her – super responsive and organized. Our dog has a very specific medication schedule that Allison was able to accommodate, and we really appreciated the care she took in setting that up. We got updates while we were away, with pictures of our little guy enjoying lots of attention from the whole family! It was a great experience, and we have already booked a return stay. We would definitely recommend Allison.”
“Brian is amazing with our pup. Our pup feels at home in Brian’s home which is immaculately clean and has the opportunity to socialize with other well-behaved pups during her stay. Our pup is used to 5mis worth of daily walks and Brian gives her tons of exercise, attention and affection when she’s with him! Ohh and I get great pics too.”
“I can’t say enough about Dyan. She watched my senior blind, deaf toy poodle and took such great care of him. Dyan went out of her way to try to make him as comfortable as possible. You could tell she really loves dogs. I was so fortunate to find her. I would highly recommend Dyan to anyone.”
“Margaret and Mojo were great for Remy. He got lots of exercise both inside an approximately acre fenced in front lawn and on long walks in the nearby woods. From the pictures Margaret sent (and how much he slept afterwards), Remy enjoyed his stay. I appreciated Margaret’s canine expertise, thoughtfulness and preparedness. The house is very dog friendly.”

Katie took such great care of my extremely anxious dog, was able to make sure he spent time alone to decompress, continued with his medication schedule, and was able to get him outside which is one of his biggest fears. I can’t recommend Katie enough for her kind and compassionate care of my dog English.
We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!
Karen was amazing with my dog, Charlie! She kept me updated with frequent photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She took Charlie swimming, made sure she got plenty of walks and exercise, and treated her like one of her own. Charlie also had a great time playing with her dog, Happy. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter! 🐾
Kasey and her family took wonderful care of my dog while I was on vacation. I knew he was in good hands and out of the chaotic environment of a kennel, which gave me peace of mind while away. I would definitely recommend Kasey for pet sitting and would have her pet sit my dog again. She even sent me pictures and updates every couple days too, which was much appreciated! Thank you again, Kasey!
Sabrina was absolutely wonderful—we can’t recommend her highly enough. She took incredible care of our pups, including our elderly dog who required extra attention (and some cleanup!), and handled everything with patience and kindness. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful to Sabrina and her family for taking such loving care of Ollie and Remy!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Avon is $52 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $49 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Avon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Avon 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 Avon.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Avon 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 CT 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
