“Will was wonderful. He was extremely flexible with meet and greet, drop off, and pick up times. He was helpful at drop off with handling of dogs and supplies. He provided pictures of stay too. All around pleasant and professional.”
“Madalys did a great job with Opie for the second time in a row. Even though it was an extended stay Opie look like he was with family. She kept us up yo date on the progress of Opie stay and delivered the dog back to us safe and sound. Thank you so much it was a pleasure.”
“Michelle saved us after a last minute cancellation with another sitter. She was ready to take in our boy within an hour and kept him overnight. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Rod was great with Maple. She was sad when it was time to go home because she had so much fun. He kept me updated throughout her whole stay with photos, let me know about how she was eating, and gave her plenty of time to run around and spend all of her energy.”
“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!”
“Bianka took great care of our blind dog Scooby! She sent frequent updates that included many pictures. Bianka was also super patient with Scooby and kept him company when he woke up barking in the middle of the night. We are so grateful for the care she provided Scooby!”
About: I’ve been welcoming other people’s dogs into my home for more than 20 years. It started because I knew firsthand how hard it was to leave my own dog when I traveled. I wanted there to be another option for people like me—people who couldn’t imagine leaving their dog in a kennel but also weren’t comfortable having someone stay in their home. What began as something I offered to friends became something I genuinely love doing. There’s something very special about watching a dog arrive in an unfamiliar place, helping them settle in and trust me, and eventually seeing them stretched out on the couch or curled up beside me as though they’ve always lived here. I still miss them when they go home. I board dogs from only one family at a time because I want their stay to feel less like boarding and more like their own vacation. While they’re here, they live with me as part of my household. I work from home and structure my days around them, so they have plenty of companionship and frequent access to my fully fenced yard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from very small dogs to dogs over 100 lbs, as well as puppies and seniors. They’re welcome on my furniture and, if they sleep with their people at home, they’re welcome to sleep with me. I don’t routinely crate dogs, but I’ll maintain a dog’s crate routine if that’s what they’re accustomed to at home. I require a Meet & Greet before accepting a new dog because I want your dog to be comfortable with me, my home and my dog—and I want you to feel completely comfortable leaving them with me. After more than 20 years, the reason I do this hasn’t changed. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is enjoying theirs, too—living in a home, getting affection and companionship, and being cared for by someone who understands just how much they mean to you. While your dog is in my care, I structure my days around them. I work from home, have my groceries delivered and generally don’t schedule activities that require me to leave them alone. There’s no rigid boarding schedule here—their normal routine becomes part of mine. Whether they want to follow me around the house, nap beside me while I work, play, cuddle or head into the fenced yard, they have companionship throughout the day. While your dog is with me, I treat them as one of my own, with the same love, attention and care I give my own dog. Before a dog stays with me for the first time, I require a Meet & Greet with my dog so we can make sure they’re comfortable together before you leave your dog in my care. I board dogs from only one family at a time, so there aren’t unfamiliar boarding dogs constantly coming and going. My yard is fully fenced, and while your dog is here, I follow your instructions for feeding, medications and normal routines. I don’t crate dogs unless their family specifically requires it as part of their normal routine.
“We’re SO happy we found Ashley! We needed someone last minute to watch our Yorkie, Maverick, while we were on vacation, and man, we really lucked out. From the start, she made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her and sent us tons of pictures and updates while we were away. Each one melting our hearts more than the last. She took such amazing care of Maverick and really made him part of the family. Her son and Maverick became the best little buddies, which was honestly so sweet to see. It made us so happy knowing he was having fun, getting lots of love, and feeling right at home while we were gone. We came home to a VERY happy pup, and we couldn’t be more thankful. We will absolutely have Ashley watch Maverick next time and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take great care of their fur babies! ❤️🐾”
“Jillian was the best, so patient and great with Bella. I ended up running late to pick her up and got caught in a thunderstorm. Bella is terrified by thunder, but Jillian was chill and stuck with her. Wouldn’t hesitate to ask Jillian to watch Bella again!”
“Loretta was absolutely amazing! We went on a family vacation, and after Duke struggled with anxiety and had to be moved twice while in someone else's care, everything changed once he was with Loretta. She made him feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment he arrived. It was such a relief knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Loretta truly knows how to care for pets with patience, compassion, and genuine love. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we'll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family!”

“Georgiana took great care of our dog Max! She sent us daily updates with pictures and we could tell he was super happy which gave us so much peace of mind while out of town. I would definitely book with Georgiana again!”
“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for 10 years and in that time one of my dogs developed IVDD and became paralyzed overnight. For the past 2 years I have learned how to care for a special needs dog, including bladder/bowel expression, wound care, medication (oral, syringe, and shots). I have found an extreme lack in boarding support for dogs with special needs and I want to use the knowledge and dedicated care for special needs dogs I have to help others and give a safe space for those who need that extra love and care. I currently work part time as a behavior technician for kids with autism (3 hours a day, Monday-Friday) so I am home most of the day. While I’m at work, my husband comes home not long after so the dogs are not alone for very long. My husband has the same abilities for caring for a special needs dog, but I will be the main caregiver. We can board 1 dog at a time all days of the week. As we are only taking special needs dogs, we want to keep it one dog at a time to limit stress and give the most attention to our guest. We do have 2 dogs (11 year old Theo, a chihuahua/papillon mix 10lbs, and 7 year old special needs Mina, a pitbull/boxer/miniature poodle mix 25lbs) that enjoy being around other dogs. We have 2 crates dedicated to our dogs, as well as two travel crates we make comfortable with pillows and blankets. There are floor dog beds in the living room and bedroom and plenty of blankets to dig in and nest. The dogs have free range of the apartment aside from a storage room. The living space is kept clear of items that the dogs can get into to prevent unsafe interactions. While there is no yard, we have lots of paths for walks and a small fenced in dog park only available to tenants. While we have our apartment fitted to our dogs, we are happy to make any adjustments that means creating the most safe and comfortable experience for your fur baby.
“Shadow has a wonderful time! We picked him up and he was so happy and excited, giving Karen so much love on the way out, we will definitely use her again on future trips to the area. shadow had his own puppy palace and got walks and so much play time. Karen asked questions and fed shadow the way we would at home, thank you for taking care of our puppy as if he were your own! We appreciate it!”
“Right from the meet and great I just knew Rachel was a sincere animal lover. She responded to me right away when I sent a request for her to watch our 10month old pup. She set up a meet and greet to make sure we were a good fit. She explained her services and how the day would go should she watch my dog. I felt complete trust dropping my pup off for the very first time with someone outside of the family. Her calming presence , knowledge of animals and training have made us at feel at ease and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“My dog, Atticus, age 2, had his first full day with Margaret a few days ago. He was very well taken care of including a couple of walks. He was happy to play fetch and take naps after walking. It was easy to tell by his face and composure that he had a great day...there was no visible stress when he returned home. Another dependable companion 'star' in his young life when I am not around! Many thanks, M :)”

Amber was absolutely amazing with our larger lab puppy, Duke! This was his first time away from us, and he stayed with her from Wednesday to Sunday (4 nights and 5 days). She was incredibly attentive and patient with his puppy energy. We loved getting the regular photos and updates, which really put our minds at ease. Amber took him on plenty of walks and even set up a pool for him on the hot days to keep him cool. Duke had a blast, and we will definitely be booking with Amber again. Highly recommend!

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
