“Angela was a fantastic host to our derpy golden doodle! We extended our stay midway through and she was very accommodating, working with us to arrange more food for our doggo and making sure he got his meds before we picked him up. We look forward to boarding with her again!”

“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!”

About: I have been training and caring for animals professionally for 16+ years, and doing so for my own animals for even longer. I strive to treat guests like my own dogs with individual care, frequent potty breaks, snuggles as needed, a pleasant bedtime routine, and daily exercise and entertainment. Safety is at the forefront of everything that I do. That includes but is not limited to keeping your dog safe and healthy. In addition to 24/7 video monitoring and professional handling while outside on leash, there are some medical records I require to be up to date for the health of my guests and my own dogs. This includes: Rabies and Distemper vaccines (Bordetella and Canine Influenza vaccines are strongly recommended but not required) Negative fecal exam and heartworm test from within the last 12 months If you have proof of these up-to-date records or can get them up to date before your boarding request, I would be happy to get you on the schedule! Booking as early as possible is the best way to get this accomplished. My boarding operation is also fully insured. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend =) I am an adjunct college professor. This means my schedule does not fit the typical 9-5 schedule, which allows me to work from home often or pop home in the middle of the day if I am working on campus. I see my own dogs frequently throughout the day, which means I will see yours too! When boarding at my home, guests have their own personal spaces in a converted bedroom. The room is climate controlled and has 24/7 video monitoring.

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 .

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 .

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.
