“Kathryn and Jeremy took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.
“Katie and Storm make it easy. It's a very warm and welcoming environment. My pup Blue enjoyed his stay and seems very happy when we arrive. So glad to have found Katie. Good communication and she's obviously very experienced and comfortable with dogs. My new go to sitter ! :)”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!”
About: Grew up with a golden retriever for 13 years! would take him for walks, hikes and enjoyed playing with him in the yard! I have 3 children who adore dogs big and small! I am gone from 8am until around 4 during the week but do have 2 days off a week where I am mostly home . I have a fenced in yard and a deck that has a gate. My yard is fenced in and have an enclosed deck off my kitchen
“Amazing Experience!!! Our 3 year old Vizsla has always vacationed with us, but this time we couldn't take her with us, we found Luis and Alan on Dog Vacay and messaged them, they were quick to accommodate, their home with a very large fenced in yard was plenty for our V to run around! Their house was spacious and very clean! We received updates every day with pictures and humor which put our mind at ease! They were way above and beyond what we were hoping for! It is so great to know that we have a wonderful home to bring our fur baby to, incase we should travel again and cannot bring her! Luis and Alan couldn't have been anymore amazing! They truly love dogs!!! We are so pleased, and highly recommend them!”
“Chestnut had a wonderful experience. I appreciated Lilliana sending me daily pictures of Chestnut so my daughters could see him enjoying his stay. Thank you again Lilliana for taking such great care of chestnut.”
“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our 9 month old puppy for the weekend! She was very responsive and did a great job of sending updates and pictures, putting my mind at ease while being away. Would love to book her again.”
“Dawn provided excellent care for my dog, Winston. I was very skeptical leaving him for the first time for 9 days. Dawn suggested we have a meet and greet and I was happily surprised when my stand offish dog warmed right up to Dawn and sat her feet and let her pet him. He didn’t start shaking as he normally does. That’s when I started to feel comfortable leaving him. Dawn frequently updated me with pictures and comments about Winston while I was away. She attended to his needs and he appeared to be relaxed and happy. Dawn was wonderful to my Winston and I would highly recommend her to anyone who’s in need of a dog sitter”
“Carolina and Angel were great to deal with and welcomed Bella into their family for the weekend. Quick responses and provide ample updates during the stay. Highly recommended. Thanks again!”
“We had a repeat stay for one of our dogs with Jill and her family when we were away. Jill maintained consistent communication with updates and photos. She reached out if there were any questions, and we can’t say this enough— we knew we were in good hands! We felt like our dog received the same amount of care and attention that he would receive from us at home. He was loved and pampered during his stay. Thank you for another great stay, Jill! :)”
“Addie is great and so nice! My dogs seemed very happy and tuckered out by the time they got home! Addie sent many photos and updated me on their overall behavior. I recommend using her for your fur friends/babies!! Thanks so much for taking good care of them.”
“Mylinda was a great dog sitter for Dino and Toby! Will definitely be a returning customer. Mylinda did a great job keeping in contact with me throughout the weekend and keeping me updated about the dogs!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Adrienne! From the moment I contacted her, she made me feel at ease about leaving my dog in her care during my trip. She went above and beyond in every way, keeping me updated with photos and videos of my dog throughout the day, which honestly made me so happy to see. It was clear that she not only took great care of my dog but also genuinely enjoyed spending time with her. Their kindness and attention to detail were truly exceptional. I highly recommend Adrienne to anyone looking for a sitter who is not only reliable but also incredibly thoughtful and kind! Thank you so much for all you did!”
“inam and jennifer took care of my dog on super short notice and he seemed like he didn't want to leave when i came to pick him up! he had such a great time and they were very kind to me! jennifer even took some amazing photos of my pup. highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I've always left my dog (14 yr old Maltese) with family when I go on trips, but things came up and we needed someone to take care of our dog for a weekend. I was so worried. I did a meet and greet with Erika and she put me at ease, so we booked right away. She has a spacious area for dogs to lounge and feel at home. And honestly, Erika just gets it. She's super understanding, responsive, thorough, and caring. She provided updates via messages and was flexible. My dog was very well taken care of and he seemed happy and comfortable. And I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my dog was okay. I'd recommend Erika to anyone needing a dog sitter. I'll definitely book with Erika again. Thank you Erika, we're so grateful!”

Estelle took excellent care of Frannie for the weekend. She was part of the family and I felt reassured and comfortable she was well taken care of and they enjoyed having her there. It is so nice to be able to leave town and not have to worry about your pet. Thank you, Estelle and family!
Had a great experience with Kristin! Our two pups stayed for a week - our boy suffers from seizures which Kristin had experience with. Kristin was wonderful at keeping us updated on his condition during their stay. We received daily reports and pictures. I appreciate how well Kristin took care of our pups!
I had an amazing experience with this dog sitter. They were truly wonderful—reliable, caring, and incredibly attentive. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog Jacob was in such good hands. This was the first time Jacob actually wanted to go back and even seemed to miss his caregivers, which says everything about the love and attention he received. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!
Brittany was great. She was really good about checking in and sending me updates, even when I was in an area with no cell service/wifi so was not able to respond to her messages. My dog is old and has slowed down a lot, and I could tell when I picked him up that she had been patient and taken good care of him.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Bristol on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 962 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Bristol. About 91% of Bristol sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
