“David took such good care of my dog this past weekend, when I brought Knuckles home he cried as if he missed him . David sent daily photos which made me so much more comfortable knowing that my dog was happy. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“My dogs love when they get to go stay at Sarah’s house. They have a great fenced in backyard and she’s always willing to take on my dogs medical needs. We get pictures every day and can check in whenever we would like to and she’s always very responsive.”
“My husband and I had a last-minute trip to Philadelphia, and Chazz came through for us. Chazz was great with Cheetah. He is very attentive and ensure he had all of his walks and extra TLC. I look forward to booking with him again!”
“Tamikia was great and kept me in the loop with regular updates about how Dexter was doing with videos + pics. This kept me at ease and it’s clear he had a great time! 🥺🫶🏾🐾”
“Beth was fantastic. From the moment we met her we could tell our lab puppy was in good hands. She was in contact the entire time with updates on our pup, and she worked with us when our plans took a turn. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“Erin was so wonderful and patient as Roxy settled in. Communication was great. Roxy was in caring hands, and we are very grateful. Looking forward to her next stay with Erin!”
“Yuiko is a very caring and trustworthy sitter! She does an excellent job of sending updates and it makes us feel better on vacation seeing how happy our dog is in her care!”
“Jenny is an amazing dog sitter. I received communication and photos throughout each day. Our Shiba Inu was very well cared for by Jenny and her husband. I would highly recommend Jenny!”
“Liz was absolutely fabulous! So friendly, professional, and easy-going. My dog is older - he’s a picky eater, enjoys attention, and prefers to cuddle in a human bed - and Liz was quick to accommodate his needs. Needless to say, he came home a very happy pup. Her dog, Duffey, is also the sweetest. She has a nice fenced-in yard and takes daily walks, which my dog loves. She sent me photos and is great with communication/correspondence. A++++”
“Zyiana was very responsive with her communication. I appreciated her flexibility when we need to extend our time. She was very attentive by sending daily updates and photo’s. She took good care of our pup!”
“Jennifer and her family were the perfect fit for our 2yo dachshund, Linguine. This was our first time being away from him for a week and she was communicative every day with photos and updates. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Amy was great with our pretty anxious dog who stayed at her home overnight. We got several cute photos and felt really comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. Would definitely use Amy’s services again!”
“Lori watched our dog, Bebe, while we were away on vacation and she did a wonderful job. Bebe can take a bit to warm up to someone new, and Lori did a great job quickly earning her trust! She lives in a quiet area with a fenced-in yard, which was perfect for allowing Bebe to relax. She also sent daily updates with great photos!”
“Rebecca went above and beyond through the entire process. It was my first time using Rover and she exceeded my expectations. She is SO sweet and Sydney enjoyed her vacation with her. I will definitely be scheduling with her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 3,165 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bridgeport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Bridgeport 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 Bridgeport 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 Bridgeport.
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 Bridgeport. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Bridgeport 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 NJ 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.
