“Britanny made sure my dog Riley got LOTS of love and attention. She sent daily updates with pictures that showed what a good time Riley was having. I definitely recommend her!”
“There are not enough words to rave about Nadjeska. First time leaving our dogs at a sitters house and not a kennel. She made my two dogs feel right at home and was so unbelievably kind especially to my one dog who has anxiety and separation issues. She sent pics and texts constantly and is literally the best sitter out there. I know they will be so excited to return. She made us completely comfortable leaving them with her. Huge piece of mind. Do NOT hesitate to book with her.”
“As always, our pup is in the best of hands, she’s always excited to stay with Ariel and her family of humans and furry friends. I love our daily updates and pictures and so happy she is in a home environment when we cannot be home with her. Thank you!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Stephanie is a fantastic sitter/ second family to Cubbie. She is always so attentive, gives frequent updates (about his sleeping, walking and play mates at her house.) My husband and I call her summer camp for Cubbie. She is a wonderful person and extremely communicative. We have had Cubbie stay with her several times and she is our go to person. We can’t recommend her enough.”
“Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!”
“Jessie, our Springer Spaniel, loved her overnight stay with Laura and her family. Jessie came home rested and happy. We couldn’t be more pleased. We have already booked Jessie’s next visit!”
“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.”
“Christopher was kind enough to take my pup on fairly short notice, which I so appreciate. He was friendly, a good communicator, and sent me updates/photos of my dog every day. I can tell Molly enjoyed her stay and I plan to bring her again on my next trip.”
“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!”
“Foxy loved staying with Mari! She came back so happy. Mari sent pictures throughout the stay and was always responsive, both during the booking process and during the stay. Foxy can’t wait to stay with Mari again!”
“From the moment my dog and I met Anne-Marie and Steve, I knew they would be a good fit as they seem to be genuine dog lovers and put Goose at ease right away! He had the best time with them as I could tell from the photos they shared during his stay. I like that they only take in one dog at a time so they can provide focused care and their place is clean and tidy. I won't hesitate to leave Goose with them again in the future and highly recommend them!”
“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!”
“Laura did a great job of communicating throughout my dog’s stay and was very understanding when circumstances changed. Great experience overall and I could tell my dog was well cared for!”
“We cannot think Julius and family enough for watching our two dogs over the holidays! It is always challenging for us to leave them behind, but Julius and family took great care of them. They were happy, and well-cared for. Looking forward to booking them again.”
“I am so lucky to have found Jill. She was able to accomodate my needs for a sitter at the last minute and was the perfect match for my dog. He instantly bonded with her son and loved being with the both of them. He was completely taken care of by her and her son for the week and had a great time. Her home is immaculate as well as low key and her fenced in yard was a bonus. I will definitely be utilizing her services again in the near future! :-)”
“Bruce was fantastic with our doodle. Our 11 year old was anxious leaving her dog with someone we didn’t know, but said after our initial meet and greet she said that she trusted Bruce. We received multiple updates and pictures a day which made us happy she was having as good of a vacation as we were. Would definitely recommend to others!”
“Sandra and Richard’s family take care of our 2 Springers Coco and Moose when we need doggie daycare or boarding services. You know your dog is happy when they jump out of the car and run to the door as if they live there. It truly is their second home. Thank you to the Wilson family for providing our family with the confidence our dogs are well cared for.”

Eileen was fantastic with Willie! She fit us in on late notice, still did a meet and greet beforehand, and communicated great throughout. She sent daily updates all weekend and Willie looked so happy in every one. Willie’s a pretty anxious pup, and Eileen made sure she had a “bunker” to retreat to during the rain, plus plenty of outdoor time. 10/10 recommend — Willie will definitely be staying with her again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Guilford on Rover is $53.28 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 1,012 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Guilford. 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 Guilford 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 Guilford 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 Guilford 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 Guilford.
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 Guilford 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.
