“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Cotton. Christle did a wonderful job and kept me in the loop throughout the day. I truly appreciate her effort and will definitely ask for her help again whenever I need coverage.”
“Amazing sitter on Rover and such a nice guy, he was able to accommodate my last-minute request and took great care of my puppy cheri. I would highly recommend him.”
“Katie took exceptional care of our golden retriever. She gave updates on how he was doing throughout the stay and asked great questions about how she could make him feel right at home. Excellent communication but most importantly a great family that treated our dog like their own. 5 stars!! Highly recommend!!”
“Janelle and her family were wonderful caretakes of our puppy. She is very attentive to his needs and gave him a lot of attention and love. He is very happy there and we would highly recommend Janelle!”
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 took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!”
“Kristen was AMAZING! She was so thoughtful in caring for our precious dog Islay over a holiday weekend. She was extremely responsive and sent daily updates too. She truly gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our trip. No doubt Islay loved spending time with Kristen’s family!! We were so blessed to have found her and will definitely be using her 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.”
“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!”
“Thank you Lisa for taking care of our dog while we were away. Inspite of our dog being only ~8 months old, Lisa was great with him. She sent pictures everyday which was wonderful.”
“Loved Jennifer! She was awesome and met me in the park to introduce Cooper to some of the other dogs she was currently watching prior to the stay. She gave regular updates and did a great job with socializing Cooper with other dogs. She is a great photographer and put together an album of the week. Loved her and wouldn’t use any other sitter!”
“Andrea took very good care of my baby, i was so nervous leaving him with someone new. But i am glad i found her. My baby was well taken care off and he seem very happy. He was treated like a family member he was taken on car rides and he was allowed to sleep on the bed. I definitely will be booking with her and her family again.”
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.
“Betsabeth created such a warm and welcoming environment that I was genuinely happy to leave my dog in her care. At first, I felt a bit nervous about trusting someone I didn't know well, but once I met her, my worries eased greatly. Throughout Diego’s time with her, she kindly kept me updated with photos and shared thoughtful insights about how he was doing, which truly put my mind at ease.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Manchester is $50

Kristen was amazing! I felt really comfortable leaving Maggie with her and Maggie had a blast! Kristen asked great questions about how to take care of Maggie and communicated really well about how she was doing throughout the stay. I would definitely have Maggie stay with Kristen in the future!
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.
Ana was truly amazing and we are very appreciative for her taking care of Nimbus. She was very attentive, kind and loving. Communication was excellent. We received so many photos, videos and updates throughout the day which helped put us at ease. We will definitely be booking with her again.
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.

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.
