“I am so grateful to have found this Karina and Teresa. They accommodated me last minute during the holidays and made the whole experience completely stress-free. They were very attentive, kept me updated with frequent photos and videos, and made sure my puppy felt safe and loved the entire time. I could tell he was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter, and I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Stephanie became a second mom to our Charlie. She gave him so much love and helped him acclimate very quickly and he felt comfortable right away. She was always quickly available to us and sent us multiple photos a day. I would more than highly recommend her as your future fur babies sitter. Thank you again Stephanie.”

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.
“Jayme was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and always responded quickly to our messages. We felt so at ease knowing Finnegan was in such good hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and that he had a great time with her dogs. We highly recommend Jayme to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“Bianka took great care of our blind dog Scooby! She sent frequent updates that included many pictures. Bianka was also super patient with Scooby and kept him company when he woke up barking in the middle of the night. We are so grateful for the care she provided Scooby!”
“Brianna took great care of my Phoebe! I was glad Brianna had dogs of her own to keep mine distracted while I was away for the weekend. Highly recommended! Thanks, Brianna!”
“We were very nervous to leave our Zeus with someone we haven’t met before but Cassandra made us feel so at ease in her beautiful home. Zeus did so great and it was great that Cassandra sent updates and picture and video of our boy. Highly recommend!”

“Mariana was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Charmy! She cared for her for 16 days and kept us updated with regular messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Charmy clearly had a great time, she came home happy, healthy, and relaxed. Mariana was responsive and treated Charmy like part of her own family. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Sai was excellent with my Lola, beyond my expectations! Lola loved to be there, the communication was great and usually Lola gets a little depressed when we go away and was not the case at all, I believe she didn’t even missed us!! Lola loved sai and we did too!!!”

“Jaxx seemed well taken care of and Steph sent photos every day as reassurance of his wellbeing. Her and I met at a public park a couple days prior to dropping Jaxx off and she seemed very knowledgeable and capable. This was my first experience on Rover and I would certainly count on her to take care of Jaxx in the future. I did not personally see where Jaxx was staying but he was fine when I picked him up and the photos looked like the environment was very pet friendly. He also seemed to like her very much, which is a good sign!”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”

“This was Luna's first time being away from us and I was so afraid with how she might be with someone new and away from her family. To my surprise she did fantastic with Lauren and had alot of fun! I received many pictures of Luna throughout her time away and little updates. She socialized with other pups, smelled amazing since she was bathed before she came home, and I can tell she was comfortable because when I got there she wiggled her little rump and was so excited to see me but she also would go back to Lauren to say goodbye. It was the sweetest thing. Thank you again, Luna will definitely be back!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I currently have two friendly, well-socialized dogs of my own, Rosie (8) and Lily (6). I work a professional full-time job with a hybrid schedule so I’m only in the office three days per week. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm environment, I’ll do my best to maintain their normal routine and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I know leaving your pet can be stressful, so I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. For the safety and comfort of all pets, I prefer to schedule a meet-and-greet before boarding whenever possible. My goal is to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your dog. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so my days naturally revolve around feeding, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I work a hybrid schedule and am always home evenings and weekends, allowing me to provide consistent care, supervision, and companionship for visiting pets. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. In my home, pets receive a safe, comfortable environment with close supervision. I also pay attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in East Haven is $58
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Haven
Karina was awesome!! Our usual dog sitter fell through just a day before a night away, and Karina was quick to respond, and flexible even with the last minute booking. She sent a bunch of videos which were much appreciated, and showed Ruth was having a great time with her dogs and other visitors. You could tell Karina really knew what she was doing and good at introducing new dogs into the mix. Would definitely recommend!
Liza and her partner is very experienced with dog and I can tell they love them use their heart! Pipi looks so happy the photos! I miss my boy a lot, Liza always respond to my messages and questions very quick and with photos and a lot of details. I will definitely reuse their service!
Sai did an amazing job with Kali! It was her first time away from home, and she was given all the love she needed and wanted to be comfortable. Sai sent pictures and updates throughout her stay, giving us the reassurance we needed. We look forward to booking with her again!

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 East Haven 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 East Haven 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 East Haven 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 East Haven.
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 East Haven 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.
