“Rosa was great with Pippin! She was super nice and updated us constantly with videos and pictures of our little guy! He came back happy and tired, always a plus. Would definitely recommend boarding with Rosa and will reach out to her again!”
“Yahaira did a wonderful job with my dog Finn. I have used big boarding facilities in the past and felt like they were not doing the little things to make Finn happy. In the pictures Yahaira sent you can tell Finn was given a lot of attenrion and was super happy!!”

“Renee was wonderful with our dog Willie, and very communicative with us! She was flexible with pick up times, and was even able to accomodate giving our dog a new medication when he got an eye infection the day before we were supposed to leave. We are very grateful we found Renee!”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave our dog! From the very beginning, Careen were kind, reliable, and attentive to every detail. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog was in such loving hands. We could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the stay. Thank you for treating our pet like family — we highly recommend your dog care service to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate!”
“Brittany was so great about communicating and sending pictures of all the fun activities she did with our lab! She is very hands on and excellent with making our pup feel right at home. We will definitely use again :)”
“Ricky was excellent! He took care of my 85 pound Hound/ Husky. I always am a bit concerned when leaving my dog with someone but when I need to do it again, Ricky will be the first person I contact.”
“This was the first dog sitting experience for our standard poodle Belle. We're very happy with how it turned out. Belle had a great stay with Margaret and an adventure spending the week with her dog Maple. Belle is a picky eater and Margaret kept us up to date on how she was eating through the rover chat. We also enjoyed getting the daily updates with pictures of Belle and Maple together.”
“My dogs are always well cared-for and happy when they stay with Lisa! She is communicative and flexible, and sends photos. Convenient location in quiet neighborhood with private yard. Thanks!”
“Dash had a wonderful week long stay at Renata’s home. Plenty of exercise and outdoor time on their beautiful property on the lake. Would absolutely trust to take care of our dog again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“MJ and Tyler were super responsive, very pleasant people to interact with, and Rosie seems to have had a great time with them. They sent lots of photos during her stay, which I loved. I plan on booking them again!”
“Nazim is an AMAZING doggy daycare provider. He has a large and fenced in yard for dogs to run around and play. My dog, Koby, loves to run around and play with other dogs. It's his favorite thing to do (besides eat)! He was able to get out all the energy he needed out and found a spot (in the yard) to chill out once he was done. Nazim sent a lot of pictures and video clips of Koby while in his care. I will definitely book another stay with Nazim!”
“Jennifer is a great pet sitter. She did an outstanding job with my Nala. She was very responsive with my messages and sent many updates of Nala during her short stay. Nala had a great time and she always looked happy in the videos. We will definitely be back in the future. I totally recommend Jennifer.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hartford
My family and I went out of town for a week, and Valeria watched our 11-week-old puppy, who can definitely be a handful! She did a fantastic job. She was extremely communicative and reliable, and our puppy seemed happy and very well taken care of the entire time. Valeria was incredibly attentive to everything that comes with caring for a new puppy, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. We had a great experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. We will absolutely trust Valeria with our puppy again in the future!
This was more difficult than I expected. But the ease LeAndra took off my mind was very much appreciated. This was my first time leaving my “Heart” with anyone outside of immediate family and I was stressed. I know how my dog is and even tho he’s a cute little cuddler he’s a frenchie and can be stubborn. I got updates and pictures that made me feel a little better knowing he’s doing good, the communication flowed and I would highly recommend her.
Such a great Sitter. So kind and punctual. Very good with dogs and knows what she’s doing. Kept open communication throughout the stay and I was able to relax knowing my baby was in great hands! 10 out of 10 if you’re looking for someone whose loving to dogs & knows what they’re doing Nevaeh is the person! I will definitely be keeping her as my preferred sitter.

There are 848 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hartford. About 92% of Hartford sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
