“Superb! I felt totally at ease leaving Gabby to Margaret's care. I appreciated her desire to meet Gabby beforehand, and she gave reassuring updates during Gabby's stay. Gabby got a lot of good attention that was documented in photos and messages, and I returned to find her relaxed and calm. I will definitely bring her back to Margaret next time I need dog care.”

“From the moment we found Sherry we felt comfortable that our dog (baby) would be in good hands. She is a very good communicator and walked us through the Rover website to call out all sorts details to make our pet feel at home and have her needs met. During our trip Sherry was kind enough to always let us know how our baby was doing with pictures and videos. This review is long overdue. We'll be looking to Sherry for our future boarding needs *Liz*”

I picked them up on Sunday and they didn't even want to leave. They had obviously received so much love and attention and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you so much Anita!!!”

“Brittany was AMAZING! Our dog, Bailey was only 18 weeks old and she knew all the right things to do with a puppy. We never worried once about his care. She sent pictures every day of his antics which made us laugh but also convinced us that he was happy and loved. She was in tune with his quirky personality, from his removal of ALL the toys from the toy box before deciding what to play with, to helping with the laundry by stealing the socks, to proudly carrying things around that he “found” . AND Brittany was reasonably priced. We will use her again in a heartbeat. We felt so incredibly blessed to have found her. We can’t thank her enough for making our vacation stress free.”

“Dyan did a fantastic job taking care of my senior deaf terrier mutt. Her dog got along with him so well and he was clearly happy and comfortable there. Dyan communicated with us the whole time we were gone and sent pictures based on our preferences to make sure we were comfortable with how things were going. She is very responsive to messages and so easy to work with. I would definitely recommend booking with her - I am already rebooking with her”

About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Starting off in apartments where they needed to be walked. I've had my own dogs for the past 16 years. From puppies to seniors on daily medications, I've taken care of it all with my own doggos. We recently lost our doggy siblings, Tegan and Sara in May and July 2022 at 15.5 years old. We currently have a 6 month old rescue named Oswald. I love all dogs! I do not breed discriminate! I live on 3/4 of an acre with a 5' chain link fence surrounding the back yard. I also work from home, so I'm always here. With your permission, I may even take your pups on adventures while in my care! We do have a cat, but she owns the 2nd floor of our house (2 spare bedrooms), so it will not affect your pups stay as we will stay on the first floor. I work from home 9-5:30 M-F. Your baby will get to go out whenever needed in my fenced yard and I will give them love in small breaks during my own work day. They will not spend their days in a crate as I am here to keep an eye on them. I have a fenced yard. I do have a very dog and person friendly pup of my own who will be happy to play with your pup, too, as his favorite place is the dog park. We have few stairs that need to be climbed, 1-3 off our deck (we have a few entrances on the deck) that can be adjusted by closing deck doors as needed for seniors.

“Julius and his family were great! He was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and let me know she was settling in and doing well. His daughter was my pup's bestie and snuggle-buddy while we were away! His dog Bear is such a patient friend too -- well mannered, sweet, and a calming presence for anxious dogs (like mine!). Definitely recommend.”

Words cannot express how grateful my family and I are to Margaret. I loved her vibe from the moment I met her and her dog, Mojo. Margaret is truly a professional, and after just a 15-minute meet-and-greet, I felt completely comfortable leaving our 7½-year-old Boxer, Bella, in her care. I had absolutely no doubt that Bella would be in the best of hands. It was immediately clear how knowledgeable and experienced Margaret is with dogs. As a retired firefighter and K-9 trainer, she brings a unique combination of compassion, discipline, experience, and calm confidence that immediately put me at ease. The way Mojo responds to her commands is incredibly impressive, and Bella took an instant liking to both of them—she was leaning on Margaret for pets within minutes! You can truly tell that Margaret loves, understands, and knows dogs. Margaret took such wonderful care of Bella. She was attentive, caring, and kept me updated throughout her stay with regular photos. Bella had plenty of time to run and play freely with Mojo in Margaret’s fenced-in yard, and they also enjoyed leashed walks together. I would 💯 recommend Margaret to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog. I’m so grateful we found her and hope Bella gets to stay with Margaret and Mojo again! 🐾❤️

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Cobalt

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cobalt is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $52 and $68 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 917 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cobalt. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Cobalt 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 Cobalt home-away-from-home, 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 Cobalt.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cobalt 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 , 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 .

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.
