“Mari was fantastic! She kept updating me throughout the day about my puppy. She took him out on multiple walks and made sure his exercise needed were met consider my puppy was very high energy. I would definitely rebook.”
“Sherry was a wonderful sitter for our Labradoodle! She met us twice before our dog’s first stay so our dog could get comfortable with her and her home prior to being left in a new place. She was so friendly and accommodating and took our dog for regular walks in the park near her house. She also sent us daily pictures and updates about all the fun they were having together, which were reassuring while we were away. Would absolutely recommend Sherry and would would certainly use her services again!”
“Mark and his family did a wonderful job with our Moxie. She was a happy girl when we picked her up. Mark was quick to respond and kept us updated with pictures during the stay. We'll definitely be back!”
“This was our first Rover experience and we could not be more thrilled. Mary Jo was extremely efficient in her responses and guiding me through the process of our first stay for Amigo. She was flexible with timing and as we were driving cross country with four little girls this was invaluable. When we arrived, it was an easy handoff as Amigo was excited to be there from the beginning. Her children are lovely and she offered me updates with pictures that showed Amigo enjoying himself alongside them. The peace of mind this provided us as we navigated our own overdue and Covid-friendly visit with my family nearby was beyond helpful. If you are looking for a kind, seamless home away from home for your visit in this area I cannot imagine a better person. Thank you Mary Jo!”
“Torie was amazing ! Can't thank her enough for watching my dog Jax for 10 days ! Torie provided excellent communication and plenty of photos from Jax's stay. Would highly recommend to all”
“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!”
“Brittany is amazing. She literally will treat your pet like her own and spoils them like they should be ❤️ I know my husky loves staying with her and she is my go to person! He even got a toy for Christmas. He gets so much exercise and love. Thank you Brittany!”
“We have been looking for a “go-to” dog sitter since moving to the New Haven area this summer, and we’ve certainly found one in Noemi and David. We reached out on short notice, looking to board our dog for a long weekend, and they were nothing but accommodating. We were able to quickly schedule a meet and greet, visit their home, and socialize our dog with their family (and their dog, Milo). When we dropped him off there for boarding, we were as comfortable as we could be and had no hesitation in trusting Noemi and David to take care of him. We received great updates/videos over the weekend, and communication was consistently clear and prompt. Our dog seems to have settled right in and came home happily exhausted from plenty of play time this weekend. I can’t recommend Noemi and David enough. We won’t be looking to board our pup with anyone else as long as they’re available!”
“Inam and Jennifer are so wonderful and flexible. They met up with me and my pup (Frankie) before boarding her for the weekend and were very flexible and communicative around drop off/pick up times. Frankie had a wonderful stay and is excited to go back to stay with Inam and Jennifer soon!”
“Bruce was incredibly conscientious about making sure Jim would be safe and comfortable during his stay. We got pictures and a report twice a day and Jim came hone happy and healthy. Would absolutely recommend Bruce to any dog guardian!”
“My dog’s first time staying with Mariana. She came back happy, clearly receiving enough care and stimulation. I was sent plenty of pictures and updates, and did not worry while my dog was in the care of a new sitter.”
“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!”
“I have used this family several times and Mickey has been so very well taken care of! Communication is key and Nadine provides daily updates and photos, which I look forward to! It’s obvious how much Mickey loves this family!”
“Bianka and her family opened up their house to our little Max for 2 nights and we were updated the whole time. She followed our routine and Max was a happy boy when we got him. Thank you!”
“Liza did great with my golden doodle. She was very quick with her responses and provided updates on my boy everyday. He seemed to have a good time with her. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Elisa was wonderful with communication and updates for my Bru, as well as very responsive. Very easy and professional to book with and very trustworthy. Would absolutely use her services again in the future. 🐾”

Holly hosted my dog for a sleepover on super short notice while we visited family. She provided many updates and several pictures of their walks. Holly even took her to several trails during the quick stay! There aren't many that will take on an opinionated or chatty husky for even a night but I'm thankful Holly was up for it! I'll definitely use her again next time we are in the area.

There are 947 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Killingworth. About 92% of Killingworth 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
