“We highly recommend Christine for your pet sitting needs. She took care of our almost blind senior shih tzu this past weekend while we attended an out of town wedding. She is super responsive and easy to work with and fantastic with our little girl who has severe separation anxiety. She kept us up to date with how things were going and sent adorable photos during the visit. Thanks so much Christine and Jax - we are so grateful for your help!!!”
“This was my first time boarding my dogs and using rover. I have read so many potential candidates profiles and other reviews and Marianas stuck out to me. She had my two dogs for 9 days and every day I had updates and photos and videos. Even with travel complications and extending their stay for one more night was no issue at all. I think my dogs had the times of their lives staying with Mariana. I’m so happy to have found her and know that during any future trips my babies are going to be cared for.”
“As a first time kitty owner I was super nervous about my cat’s care while away on vacation. Laura helped me navigate the Rover site, was flexible with pickup when we got stuck in traffic, sent daily updates and cute pictures, and introduced our kitty to her own pets for additional fun. Highly recommmend!”
“I have a high energy 3 month old Chihuahua Daschund mix! Enrique was kind and patient in helping me through a 1st time experience! He provided a clean and tidy room! He walked and handled meal time smoothly! He would also send me a photo daily! I highly recommend and would use his service again! Job well done! Thanks to Enrique, I appreciate you! 😘”
“Klaudia was awesome! Our elderly dog had a health crisis while she was caring for him, and she took him to the vet, was very good with communication, and really cared about our guy for 2 days while we made our way home early from vacation. Highest recommendation!!”
“If you need a pet sitter - Pauline is your girl!! I can’t thank her enough for hosting my two dogs in her home for the night. I received photos & an update within 30 minutes of dropping them off - & without having to check in myself - which I absolutely loved & appreciated. I then received updates all throughout the day which is exactly what I needed! She was VERY attentive to the dogs, asked about/followed their normal routine & updated me if she sensed anything was wrong or if the dogs seemed uncomfortable (one of them was exhibiting signs of an ear infection). I know my dogs were well taken care of and enjoyed their stay. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and we are so very grateful to Pauline!!!”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time. I always can send you photos and updates so you can feel connected while you're away.
“Left our pup for 6 nights with Dyan. Leaving him was somewhat traumatic for us as we typically travel with him. But Dyan made us very comfortable that our pup was doing great. Nightly photos of our pup and hers showed us that he was just fine. He went on many walks and he got along great with Aiko. Thanks Dyan for taking such great care of our pup .”
“Thank you SO MUCH Yajaira for taking such great care of Jack and Mya; you are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! You put me at ease and they were so well taken care of. Your kindness, professionalism, care, empathy, courtesy and understanding was greatly appreciated. You are a great sitter and a great person.”
“Kathryn & Jeremy were great! Their house was cozy and friendly. Our corgi loved playing with their kids and he was definitely tired when he got home. They were great at communication and we felt our dog was safe. Will book with them again!”
“Brian and Kevin are great with my fur baby. He gets lots of love and exercise and I get updates daily from them. This is the 2nd time they’ve cared for my Tucker boy and I would highly recommend them.”
“Didn’t get to meet Inam but Jennifer was amazing with my Ralphie! She’s very patient and kind, all the good qualities needed to take great care of your pets. They sent pictures and updates almost every day which was much appreciated. Looked like my pup had a lot of fun. I’ll definitely be using their services again!”
“I can't say enough great things about our experiences with Jennifer. I've left my dog Peachy with her 3 times now, this last time being over a week. I got so many picture and video updates throughout and I could see how comfortable and happy my Peachy was. Jennifer and her daughter are so wonderful with her and I am very grateful to have found them. The peace of mind I have now while I'm away that my dog is well cared for is worth so much. Also, Jennifer was highly communicative and very flexible when my schedule needed to change last minute. I won't leave Peachy with anyone else now!!”
“My experience was amazing, my family and I went away for a week and Erika kept us informed with multiple messages and pictures every morning and evening. My pup looked like he was very happy in every single picture(and there were a LOT of really great pics)!”
“Bruce is wonderful with Jax and Daisy. He is patient and kind, earning the trust of our timid girl. We traveled overseas and I never wondered or worried because I got frequent updates from Bruce. We are grateful that we found Bruce to care for our furbabies!”
“We loved Ola! She took such wonderful care of Nara and we felt at ease while away. The pictures and updates were great and helped us feel connected the whole time. We will definitely use her again in the future 💕”
About: Hi! My name is Douglas, Doug for short. Currently a proud papa to a golden lab named Sunny, and a grey longhair cat named Remy. My best friend is a pug/chihuahua mix named Taz. I also had an old man chihuahua named Finn, and I’ll forever miss him. I feel like I speak dog, I know how to tailor my personality to meet the needs of any dog. Cliche to say but I am better with animals than with people. I am responsible, gentle, caring, and a big rule follower. I have pretty open availability throughout the week so I have lots of time to hang out with your dogs! Let me know what you need and I should be able to make it work! I have experience with crate training my dog so I am comfortable playing with your dog in the house or yard, and switching them to their crate if needed.
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Meriden
Luz was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my dog, Poncho, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Her communication was excellent. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Poncho was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I highly recommend Luz to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter.
Maria kept me updated throughout the day with photos and thoughtful messages, including details about how he interacted with other dogs and how he did at bedtime while he was still being crate trained. Her communication gave me a lot of peace of mind and I could tell she genuinely cares about dogs and I would absolutely book with her again.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Meriden on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,005 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Meriden. About 91% of Meriden 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
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.
