“Maggie was so professional, attentive and affectionate in watching my dogs! Every day brought new photos and progress reports. They came home in even better health than when I dropped them off!”
“Mary and Todd were wonderful hosts to our 4 month old puppy, June. Everything was handled very easily and leaving her behind with such nice people was really comforting. She even got a longer walk than she would have with us!”
“Lynsey was incredibly accommodating and made sure that Zora was coming into a friendly environment. Her pup Stan got along great with mine, and she had an ample, secure space that the pups could run around in.”
“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.”
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.
“Nell was friendly, flexible about drop off/pick up, and so kind to our pup for her first stay away from us. Nell made our girl feel right at home and kept her happy in our absence.”
“Kathleen was an excellent Rover host - perhaps the best we've encountered! Kathleen honestly seemed to love our dog almost as much as we do, and send updates and pics throughout his stay. Most importantly, our dog seemed to have a great time, and was in a really good, relaxed mood when I picked him up.”
“This was our first time leaving our Dottie with a sitter, and Tetiana took the most thoughtful and thorough care of her. She kept me updated every day with messages, photos and videos of how Dottie was doing, and we could absolutely tell how happy our girl was to the point where I wasn’t sure she’d want to come back home with us! I can’t recommend Tetiana enough, and will absolutely use her again!”
“Samantha and Michael were the perfect boarders. Extremely responsive, proactively communicated with us and seemed to have the perfect home for our Lab (who has anxiety). He was extremely happy with them!!”
About: I waitress, have taken care of seniors and am a certified yoga instructor. I have had cats, dogs, chicks, fish, hamsters. I currently do not own any pets. Pets to me are precious friends who are to be taken care of like children. With full attention, support and love. I work from home so I am able to provide that kind of care. I work from home (virtually) and can accommodate boarding weekdays and weekends. I keep a clean and tidy home and have a gorgeous park very close by. Pet care fits in my routine as I used to have a cat until recently. I care for pets with respect and integrity. Showing them love and care. Keeping them and the area around them clean. Accommodating to their needs by always keeping an eye for out for them.
“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have cared for family and friends pets numerous times. Have experience with training puppies, administering medication, bathing and walking dogs. I am currently working part time during the week but am available on weekdays before 10am and after 3pm. I am also fully available on weekends, leaving plenty of time for enriching play and cuddle time for your furry friends! I bring the pets I care for outside for long walks despite the weather and play with them for as long as they like so they can use all their pent up energy. Every pet I care for receives lots of pets and belly rubs to keep them happy and entertained.
“Jesse was amazing with my pup and sent the best pictures. He was extremely communicative and made sure my fur baby was loved. He is always my first go to as a sitter I have to leave town.”
About: I’ve worked at animal hospitals for 28 yrs I’m reliable and good with peoples pets I can give meds if needed insulin as well I get lots of waging tails my way I prefer come to your home so your pet is more comfortable and has there familiar surroundings and all the things they’re used to toys their bowls, etc. I can stay the night if needed I like staying with pets at there home this helps also with stomach upsets and stress of being somewhere new and unfamiliar I like the pets to be able to keep there routine
“Anna was very attentive, kind and obviously portrayed that she wanted to care for our fur baby. Our dog can be a little difficult with strangers and it seemed that she felt very comfortable there! Definitely recommend.”
“Thanks to Rebecca, we enjoyed an amazing concert on our vacation and didn't worry about our dog for a second. She put me at ease before I ever met her. She happily anwered my questions and she asked questions that showed me that she really wanted to make our dog's stay pleasant. Her warmth and love for dogs was apparent as soon as I met her. And it was apparent to my dog, too-- she immediately connected to her. I told Rebecca that our dog loves to play fetch, and Rebecca played fetch with her as we drove away. While we were at our concert, Rebecca texted me to let me know our dog was doing great. She told us that our dog was playing with her dogs and that she and her husband had taken all three on a walk. She also sent along a few photos. When we went to pick our dog up, she was happy. to see us but didn't run to our car. She went back to Rebecca-- maybe to say goodbye! We had such a wonderful time at our concert and it was all thanks to Rebecca. We will definitely book her again! And we know our dog will be thrilled to see her!!”
“We just got our puppy about a month ago and was very worried about what we do with him for our already planned trip! Jaylese was very responsive. We booked a meet and greet and I was already so comfortable leaving my pup with her! We received daily pictures and updates!! I am soooo happy we went with Jaylese! She will be used for our pup in the future!!! Thank you for taking great care of our pup ❤️”

Parker had a wonderful time with Teresa (as evidenced by the many photos that Teresa graciously sent us over the course of the week!). Teresa's overall communication was excellent and we felt 100% confident that Parker was in good hands throughout her stay. We would highly recommend Teresa.

There are 268 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Canaan. About 92% of Canaan 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.

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.
