“Davon was amazing. Constant communication and updates with photos showed Frankie had an amazing time. He was extremely comfortable and enjoyed every second of it. Would definitely book again in the near future. 10 out of 10 experience.”
“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!!!”
“Stephanie is such a thoughtful, attentive, and caring host to your pup. She clearly has years of dog sitting experience and goes above and beyond to get to know your doggos personality and how it blends into her schedule and home. Will certainly book again :)”
“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.”
“Luna loved staying with Bruce. I appreciated Bruce's attention to detail in making sure he was able to provide the best care for Luna. We've already booked another stay with Bruce!”
“Liza took amazing care of our special girl. She was very responsive and demonstrated both confidence and kindness with our reactive pitbull. She’s amazing and we will absolutely be working with her in the future!”
“Mari was exceptional. Absolutely exceptional. Not only did she communicate all the time but she sent so many pictures and videos. I did not expect Lloyd to get on so many long walks with Mari, but he did! Lloyd was cared for so well. Thank you, Mari!”
“Jayme really helped us out with watching Diesel when we had to go away for a long weekend for a family wedding. I felt very comfortable knowing that Diesel was in good hands and that he had a yard to play around with. Jayme is very kind and sent several pictures of Diesel. Knowing that he was in someone’s loving home and not in a boarding facility put me at ease. I would recommend Jayme without hesitation for anyone who wants their dog to have a home away from home!”
“This was my first time to board my little pup. I was definitely anxious to leave him, but Stephanie did a great job by sending me photos of Maverick each day & giving me updates about him. He looked so happy & well taken care of. Thank you Stephanie!”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“Tara is a great care giver for my dog, a large lan. She has a a dog equipped home and a fenced in back yard. She’s cheerful, accommodating, and provided healthy snacks. She and her husband took her for walks multiple times per day. Totally trustworthy and communicative. Best Rover find ever!”
“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 :)”
“Claudia and Juni (her pup) were SO awesome and went the extra mile during his stay to make Chase feel at home! From play time to hand feeding him when he didn’t want to eat to playing search games for mental stimulation. She also sent many videos and pictures which I very much appreciated!! I highly recommend her and Juni for your future dog sitting needs!!”
“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've taken care of animals since I was a kid, and have always had dogs in my home growing up! I like to treat every pet as an individual and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so I am happy to follow specific feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines. I always prioritize safety and communication with the owners. I’ll keep you updated with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well-cared for. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals! I'm currently a Yale Law student so I have a flexible schedule for walks and care! I'm happy to help on weekdays and weekends. I have no other pets, so your pet will feel comfy and get all the attention they deserve. My environment is usually quiet and peaceful.
“We felt very comfortable leaving our Sheltie Winston with Brittney (and family!) and the daily updates and pics were great so we never worried while away. Definitely will use her service again!”

Sai was excellent and amazing when boarding my dog for a couple of days. Followed all instructions given and provided updates throughout the day. Since this was my first time using this app I was a bit skeptical with everyone but I gained confidence because Sai is amazing at care for our loved ones.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in East Haven on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,195 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across East Haven. 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 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.
