Ricky did a great job with Maggie Mae. She was happy when I picked her up and she was frisky around Ricky and his family. She was well taken care of.

Christle is a truly kind and caring person who took excellent care of my dog for 17 days. It was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter, and the experience couldn’t have been better. I wholeheartedly recommend Christle to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their furry friend.

Ifan is the best seater we've ever had. He took good care of our baby Toshi. We have found our person to care for dog in our absence. We love the regular updates and pictures and he is very affordable for the care he provides.

Kristin is just who we were looking for to take care of our boy! He got to snuggle on her couch, sleep in her bed, and rumble with all of her other Rover pups. And we got pictures and videos of all of it! Wylie is going to miss having friends around all the time!

Katie and her family were wonderful sitters, giving updates and pictures daily as well as quick responses when messaged. They gave our dog lots of attention and cuddles, even bringing her with to their family Christmas! They also helped fill her stocking with toys and goodies, which our dog is still happily playing with. I would recommend Katie to anyone!

About: I have a 13 year old dog so i understand the patience it takes to care for animals. I am attentive and loves to play. My schedule is pretty flexible so I am able to check in with the animal frequently. I am able to check in throughout the day I have a dog who is friendly and playful with others. He’s good at walking with other pets. When visiting clients i want to follow their rules and treat their pets like they were my own.

Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!

Jennifer and Inam were such great caretakers! I had a last minute trip for work and they were so flexible and accommodating on very short notice. I interacted mostly with Jennifer and I could tell how much love and care she pours into all the dogs. My pup was so sad to see her leave when it was time to go! Thank you for taking such great care of Olivia!!

Amazing Experience!!! Our 3 year old Vizsla has always vacationed with us, but this time we couldn't take her with us, we found Luis and Alan on Dog Vacay and messaged them, they were quick to accommodate, their home with a very large fenced in yard was plenty for our V to run around! Their house was spacious and very clean! We received updates every day with pictures and humor which put our mind at ease! They were way above and beyond what we were hoping for! It is so great to know that we have a wonderful home to bring our fur baby to, incase we should travel again and cannot bring her! Luis and Alan couldn't have been anymore amazing! They truly love dogs!!! We are so pleased, and highly recommend them!

★★★★★ Highly Recommended! Our dog Reba had a wonderful time with Kristin and Jay. Reba has some vision challenges, so finding caregivers who are patient, attentive, and understanding is extremely important to us. Kristin and Jay went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, safe, and loved. From the moment we met them, we knew Reba was in great hands. They provided a calm, caring environment and treated her like part of the family. It was obvious that they genuinely care about the dogs they watch and take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Reba was receiving excellent care. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We would not hesitate to use Kristin and Jay again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such great care of Reba! 🐾❤️

Andrea was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Scooby, felt comfortable and happy during his stay. We loved receiving the regular updates with pictures and videos, it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. To top it off, she even gifted Scooby the cutest goodie bag when we picked him up! I highly recommend Andrea and will definitely trust her to watch Scooby again in the future.

Elise cared for Raven in the face of Raven’s fear of a new environment. Elise communicated Raven’s behavior to me several times. That gave me the opportunity to further reassure her that this behavior was not unusual. This dialogue helped Elise deal with Raven’s behavior to the best of her ability. After picking up Raven, she settled into my home quickly. I am also taking Elise’s recommendation that in-home sitting is the better option for Raven’s care. I highly recommend Elise for future cat or dog sitting.

About: Ive been a dog owner all my life and have pet sat for many family and friends. Young or old, I love dogs and am ready to take care of your furry companion like they were one of my own. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I can watch your pet throughout the week or weekends as needed. Just walks are available throughout the day too. I have a fenced in back yard, as well as a medium sized crate for crating if needed. I currently don't have any pets of my own, but plenty of toys an activities for a fun doggy day! I also live close by a few parks and dog parks that can provide a nice field trip.

Patty was wonderful with our younger pup while we were away on a preplanned vacation. It gave me such peace of mind knowing our dog was in a loving, caring home. I personally prefer having our dog stay at a sitter’s house rather than having someone come to ours, and this setup worked out perfectly. Patty has a nice, large yard and kept us updated regularly on how our pup was doing, which we really appreciated. Even though our puppy is still young and in the process of being trained, Patty was patient, supportive, and very understanding of his needs. She was also incredibly kind during the meet-and-greet and took the time to understand and follow our request for homemade food, which meant a lot to us. I would highly recommend Patty and am already looking forward to our pup’s next visit as he continues to grow.

Jasmine was excellent! She understood that I was a bit nervous leaving my dog with a stranger for the first time. She sent me photos, a video, and updates that showed me that Finley was relaxed, happy and enjoying playing with her dog. I feel that Jasmine made Finley feel like he was part of her family.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Manchester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Manchester on Rover is $41.73 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 806 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Manchester. 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.

98% of Manchester 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 Manchester 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 Manchester 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 Manchester.

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 Manchester 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.
