Buddy had so much fun staying with britanny and her lovely family. He was actually sad when he came home 🤣 . We were kept updated with pictures and how he is doing throughout the stay . As others mentioned, he had a great vacation while we were away! Highly recommend and we will be back for sure!

They were attentive to my dogs needs. They cared for my beagle’s well being. They sent me regular updates of how he was doing and pictures. I do recommend them and will go back again.

This was my first time using the app, and I couldn’t be happier with the care Laura provided. She was friendly, attentive, and a pleasure to communicate with throughout my dog’s stay. I really appreciated the regular photos and updates—it gave me such peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. I would happily use her services again and highly recommend her.

This was my German Shepherd, Evie's, 3rd stay, 1st overnighter, with Nadjeska. Evie had a great time playing with the other guest dogs, and Nadjeska sent us several photos to let us know she was doing great. No drama, no trauma, just a happy dog at the end of her stay.

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!

About: I love animals. I grew up with dogs and as an adult have owned a Black Lab, King Charles Cavalier, and now have a Jack Russel mix! I'm very active and like taking dogs on long walks! I work from home and am very active. I walk my dog to the beach or harbor every day, into town, and for hikes on nearby trails. I'm a very caring and responsible dog owner.. I have a safe home and would be happy to keep your dog with me or pet sit at your house and take him or her on several walks!

About: I've got a Labrador retriever that wants to be everybody's friend and kids that love pets. I typically work-from-home throughout the week. I enjoy being active, so doggie time outside (walking in our neighborhood, hiking our local trails, or playing fetch outside) is right up my alley! Our cat passed away in 2024, but I'm keeping him on my profile so he will live on! :) I typically work from home and start a pet care routine for our pets in the morning and throughout the day. We're in a friendly neighborhood with many dog owners and a safe place for walking dogs. There are also some trails within driving distance. Our dog gets play time outside either by playing fetch or with a walk, and of course lots of love from the kids. I have a long lead that allows dogs to play in the front/back yard safely. Any dog's time outside is supervised to make sure they are not eating anything they shouldn't and getting the play time they need. A crate in the home is available.

Alexandra J. was an exceptional boarder for my very active Boxer Ghost. She was responsive to inquiries and booking, was flexible with scheduling and with accommodating Ghost's specific food requirements. Very importantly her dogs and other boarders provided my very active girl with plenty of exercise. And also importantly, she sent photos and videos of Ghost over the week that I was gone. I would recommend her highly. Judy

Millie was well cared for by Catherine and her family. We had a weekend away and she was able to accommodate our drop off and pick up time slots. There were numerous photos which made us feel confident in her care. Great setting with a large yard and only other pet was their cat. Our spaniel does not always grt along with other dogs. Well done! Will viait again:)

I had a family wedding to go to and wanted to find a safe and comfortable place to leave Winston, my young dorgi (half dachshund, half corgi) who had never been away from me since I was lucky enough to get him. Laura and her family turned out to be the perfect people and place. With a beautiful, safe home out in the country, a deck and fenced in yard where he could play, a open-plan house where he was visible at all times, Laura’s place was perfect. And the bonus: three little girls who adored him and lavished attention upon him, much to his delight. Laura, herself, was wonderful, caring, professional, delightful. She took him on long walks which he loved, texted me photos and updates on this progress during the stay, saw to his every need and even made some recommendations to me as to feeding bowls which might slow his eating down (he snarfs up his food in seconds!). I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home. But I think he knows he can go back and stay in this home away from home which he will definitely be doing the next time I need to go away without him. I can’t tell you the peace of mind that all this brought me, knowing that he was happy and being well-cared-for and loved.

About: I have a close connection with a well-respected, professional dog trainer. I can usually get helpful tips and techniques on short notice, which I have used to successfully train puppies on basic commands (sit, stay, etc). I have 1 cat (2yrs old) who is neutered, indoor, and very shy. I work from home so I spend a lot of time caring for my pet which includes 3 mealtimes, plus play/enrichment time, and relaxing downtime each day. For dog care, I have a small fenced in yard and live in a nice area, so dog walks and outdoor potty breaks are very convenient at most times of day.

Stephanie is wonderful. Our dog is shy and not used to new situations, and she was very caring and sensitive to his behavior and needs. She sent us lots of photos and messages to reassure us that he was doing well - and he really seemed to be having a good time! We hope to leave Alfie in Stephanie’s care again. Thank you, Stephanie!

Jill was friendly and took great care of my dog! I had to drop Paisley off on very short notice, and Jill was happy to accommodate. Her home was clean and dog-friendly, with a fenced in backyard. She and her son went for walks and made Paisley feel at home. It was great to find a house without other dogs so mine could feel calm and special. Thanks, Jill!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Clinton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clinton on Rover is $36.39 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 822 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clinton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

97% of Clinton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Clinton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

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.

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.
