“Brittany & her family couldn’t have been better for Coco-they treated her like family & we could not have been more pleased!!She got along great with the family golden & neighbors dogs, too! Highly recommend & will be repeat customers! The 2 sons were super involved with her care, too!”
“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”
“Jill was amazing! We met before our booking so we could make sure my dog would be comfortable and fit in at their home. She sent me pupdates throughout the weekend and did so many adventures with our dog. I'm so happy to have found her!”
“Excellent experience boarding my dog with Kim! She has a lovely home with a big backyard; she gave my dog plenty of outdoor time and sent updates during his stay. I felt that my dog was very well cared for and would definitely use Kim’s services again in future.”
“Anne-Marie and her partner did a superb job taking care of Bella. They sent daily updates and photos, and provided Bella with thorough and attentive care. It was clear from the photos and when I picked up Bella that she enjoyed her stay :) highly recommend, looking forward to next stay.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a boarder. I received pictures and reassuring texts showing what a wonderful time he had at their home. Feeling confident I can leave him for a much longer stay in a few months. Thank you!”
“Our son was getting married in upstate NY so we needed a sitter for our dog Kai while we were away. We have always left Kai with either family or friends, but since everyone we knew was attending the wedding I reached out to Laura. We set up a meet and greet -I knew from the first time I met her that she was a perfect match. She was warm and kind - obviously a dog lover - and she made a connection with our normally shy dog right away. She asked a lot of questions about Kai's habits - she wanted to make sure she followed his normal daily routine so that he would be comfortable in her home.. Her house is beautiful and she has a large, fenced in back yard that allowed Kai to run free in a safe environment. Laura took him for a 3 mile daily walk, and sent many pictures and updates the whole 6 days she had him. He became a part of her family❤️ I cannot say enough about how happy we were to have found her. She gave us peace of mind that Kai was well loved and cared for so we were able to enjoy the wedding without any worries. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura to anyone looking for a sitter!!”
“We are 100% thrilled with the care that Skippy got while staying with Sandy!! Skippy came home happy and calm, rather than a wreck and exhausted as from the kennel. Sandy sent many pictures, which of course we loved! I would recommend this home without reservation!!!❤️”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs but have experience with both dogs and cats. I have always had a natural love for animals. I’m caring, patient, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, whether they love to play, go for walks, cuddle, or simply relax by my side. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 I work remotely, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day, including taking them outside, going for walks, playing, and giving them lots of love and cuddles. I enjoy having animals around while I work and am happy to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. I like to keep things as comfortable and familiar as possible for each pet. I’ll follow their usual routines and any instructions you provide, while paying attention to their personality and individual needs. Whether they’re energetic, shy, or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and have a positive experience while you’re away.
“Liza did great with my golden doodle. She was very quick with her responses and provided updates on my boy everyday. He seemed to have a good time with her. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
About: I’m so excited to be welcoming pups back into my schedule! I offer attentive, personalized dog walking with a focus on making every outing feel safe, happy, and special. I treat each dog like one of my own, with plenty of affection, patience, and individual attention. While I continue recovering from knee surgery, I’m currently accepting small, easy-to-handle dogs for walks. Whether your pup loves a leisurely neighborhood stroll, lots of sniffing, or a little extra TLC, I’m happy to tailor their walk to their personality and routine 🐾💜 I commute from NYC & The Hamptons, so my schedule varies slightly during the week. I encourage bookings and stays to be planned ahead of the week to ensure consistency and dependability. I provide my own pet-safe wipes to clean paws after outdoor walks, helping keep your home clean while maintaining your pet’s comfort. I’m mindful about the products I use and prioritize gentle, pet-safe options. I always ask before giving any treats and make it a priority to respect both your home and your pet’s routine. I aim to provide thoughtful, considerate care in every environment I’m welcomed into.
About: I’ve always had dogs of my own, so I understand the daily care, attention and responsibility they require. I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving and comfortable environment where every dog feels happy and cared for. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, walks and supervised outdoor time in the yard, I will be with them with the exception of short errands if needed. The yard is not fenced, so dogs are always kept safely monitored and/or leashed while outside. I will also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Mari was amazing with my girl Mabel. I boarded with her for a week and she was consistent with updates and keeping up with my dogs high energy levels. Her dog Duke was a great playmate for her and she took her to the dog park for daily playtime. Would absolutely recommend her services and rebook for my next trip away. She’s the best!”
“Theresa and her family were wonderful hosts for Oliver! They welcomed him into their home over Thanksgiving at the last minute and treated him as if he was their own dog. She kept me updated throughout his stay and I never had to worry how he was doing. I wish every dog sitter was as good as Theresa and her family. Thank you so much!”
“After seeing Bri with her own dogs, I knew she would take great care of my little guy. We were grateful for the service and responsiveness she showed, would love to use her again!”
“Phenomenal family! So wonderful to work with. We had to extend our dog’s stay and it was no problem. I can’t say enough about how wonderful they were to our dog. He was so well taken care of ….”
“Dominique and Brandon are absolutely exceptional. If I could give 10 stars I would. They took amazing care of our dog and treated her like she was her own. She was attentive, reliable, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us complete peace of mind. We came home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup. We have tried boarding our dog with other people and I can say after she stayed with Dominique and Brandon she’s just so happy, playful, relaxed, it looks like she had her own vacation! You know when somebody took great care of your dog. Dominique and Brandon will be my go-to! They are amazing! Thank you Dominique and Brandon!!”

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.
95% of sitters in Clinton 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 Clinton 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 Clinton.
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 Clinton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Clinton 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 CT 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.
