She got really good care from this home doggie day care. It was really amazing to watch her thrive around the new friends she made at doggie daycare. Really great communication and lots of updates, pics, and videos while I was away. It seemed every time I started missing my little Chihuahua I got a pic. Great experience and would definitely rebook.

I left my dog with Nadine and her family for the first time (for several days) and I am SO happy I did. I could tell that he was in the best hands, and I appreciated the regular updates and pictures! They want above and beyond to make my anxious dog comfortable and he came up happy and relaxed. I will definitely keep them in mind for future stays as they have my highest recommendation.

Karina did an excellent job looking after my dog while I was away for the weekend. This was my first time having someone watch him, and her regular updates and photos kept me from worrying. Her friendly dog was an added bonus, and it was clear from the moment I picked up Teddy that he had been well-loved and cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Karina again for future trips.

Christina was great with our Trixie. She was very attentive to her special needs and very understanding about our concerns leaving our dog for several days for the first time. She kept us informed how things were going and was great administering meds as needed. We have already requested to rebook. Christina has a lovely home and family. Your dog will be safe and well cared for with her.

There aren’t enough words to state my gratitude to Valeria for watching my Luna Bear. She is the perfect sitter. I had a last min work trip and she came through for me. She was so attentive to Luna and sent pics, videos, did FaceTime and my Luna looked like she didn’t want to come home lol. She is my go to if I ever have to travel or need Luna to be watched. I will be booking with her again very soon. So grateful to have found her ☺️

About: I’ve always had pets in my home and absolutely love caring for animals! I currently have two sweet cats of my own, and over the years, family and friends have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats. While I’m new to Rover, I have hands-on experience with dog walking, feeding, pet sitting, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and give you peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to give your pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I also have a large yard and live in a quiet, walk-friendly neighborhood, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy getting outside and exploring. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, some playtime and attention during the day, or care while you’re away, I’m happy to work with their routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, following their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I can also take dogs for walks around my quiet neighborhood and make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. When pets stay in my home, I want them to feel as comfortable as possible. Dogs who are comfortable around cats are welcome to enjoy the common areas of my home. For cats, I also have a separate room available so they can have their own quiet, comfortable space if they prefer to be away from other animals.

Goose had such a fantastic weekend with Lacy!! It was his first time spending more than one night away from home, and she made him feel so welcome and comfortable. We were blown away by her attention to detail and all of the fun activities she planned for him & included him in. We were 100% confident that Goose was safe and happy the entire time we were away, and we would book another stay with Lacy in a heartbeat!

We were looking for a new pet sitter after our previous one moved out of town. Gaileen’s calm and friendly personality and her excellent care for our dog during a recent trial stay has put my worries to rest. She sent regular updates, followed my dog’s routine, and was super easy to communicate with. We will definitely be boarding with her again in the future.

They did doggy day care for my two pups four days in a row while I was out of town and the girls loved it. Got plenty of pics of the girls cuddling with their kids and going for walks. After the first day, they would run up the steps super excited to go in when they realized where they were!

We received lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and showed how much fun Richie was having. It was clear that Richie had a stress-free, enjoyable day filled with attention, playtime, and care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We would be happy to leave our dog with him again!

Yi Jia has been so great with Moxi. We had just moved here and feel really lucky we found her. She always makes sure Moxi is comfortable when we drop her off, and Moxi gets so excited every time she sees her. We can tell she loves hanging out at Yi Jia’s house. She’s also super responsive and sends us updates, which we really appreciate. One time we had a last minute emergency and needed Moxi to stay an extra day, and Yi Jia was so kind and flexible about it. It’s really nice knowing Moxi is happy and in good hands with her.

I highly recommend Ariana! I had to book a sitter for my senior dog almost last minute and found Ariana. We met before I went away and liked her immediately. My dog is mostly blind and deaf and Ariana assured me she’s taken care of senior dogs before. Ariana did a great job with her. I received morning and evening updates along with pictures and videos. I’m very glad Ariana took care of her, she did a great job! I would definitely use Ariana again. Thanks!

Nicholas and Mary Ellen were more than wonderful! Right from our initial meeting them both we knew we'd have a great experience with them! They were very attentive with our dog at the meet and great, and so very understanding of our dog's needs. We were at ease right away. And our dog took to them and their home immediately...she just seemed very comfortable with them and in their home. By the end of the meet and great we knew this would be a great match, and we felt confident leaving our dog with them. (We have a senior dog with some special needs who we adopted 2 years ago, and we're always a little nervous leaving her hoping she doesn't think she's been left again.) Upon picking up our dog we could tell she had been both well loved and well taken care of, and we felt that Nicholas and Mary Ellen really enjoyed their time with our dog. We will most definitely use Nicholas and Mary Ellen again!

Noelle is absolutely wonderful! She’s kind, sweet, and genuinely cares for my dog. She’s also very accommodating since my dog needs medication, and she took the time to ask questions, understand his needs, and reassure me with her experience caring for dogs with seizures. Her dog, Fetti,gets along well with mine. As soon as we pull up, Milo gets excited and can’t wait to run out of the car which is a telltale sign he likes being there. He also loves playing with her kids. He gets lots of attention and affection for sure. Noelle is very responsive and always keeps me updated with pictures and messages, which gives me so much peace of mind. I’m so glad I found her. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. 🐾🐶

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Milford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Milford on Rover is $47.25 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,337 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Milford. 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.

97% of Milford 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 Milford 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 Milford 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 Milford.

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 Milford 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.
