“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!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Imam and Jennifer were absolutely amazing! They took my dog on very short notice after my original sitter had to cancel, and for a fairly long stay, which was such a huge relief. They host quite a few dogs, but they manage them so effortlessly that I swear they're dog whisperers. My dog has pretty significant anxiety, and they were always attentive and sensitive to her needs. They knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable, and by the end of her stay I honestly think this had become her favorite vacation spot! What meant the most to me was how much they paid attention to my dog's unique personality. They noticed her little quirks, habits, and preferences, and shared those observations with me. As a dog parent, that meant the world because it showed they truly saw and cared for her as an individual—not just another dog staying with them. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Imam and Jennifer again. If you're looking for sitters who genuinely understand dogs and treat them with incredible care, look no further!”
“Maggie was so great with our dog while we were away for a weekend. He was well taken care of and we loved receiving photo updates each day while we were gone. We would highly recommend Maggie to anyone who needs boarding/doggy day care”
“Careen was so patient and caring with my dog during his stay! I can tell she won him over! He is normally very timid around other people but it sounds like he made himself right at home with her. 💜 Thank you!”
“Alan & Luis take such good care of Cody while we are away. We get up dated pics and videos every day and feed back on how he is doing. It makes us feel secure that Cody is in good hands while we are away. Plenty of activity and interacting with the other dogs . Clean environment and worry free. From my fur baby to you both... thank you for taking such good care of me. Miss you!!”
“Our dog Rocky loves staying with Kevin and Brian! He comes home tired and we never have to worry that he is safe and happy! He gets lots of love and we can relax that he is in good hands. We have used them many times and will continue to!”
“We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!”
“Maxie had a delightful time with Debra! She showered Maxie with attention, only one boarding dog, plus Debra’s dog. She loved exploring the back yard and hanging out as part of the family. Lots of pictures and videos :) Thank you Debra!”
“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! 😘”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even ferrets! I’ve always had a soft spot for animals and genuinely enjoy getting to know their different personalities. I’m also a registered nurse, so being dependable, attentive, patient, and caring comes naturally to me. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities, and I’ll always treat yours like my own. I’m new to Rover, but definitely not new to caring for animals! 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays throughout the week, including weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so fitting walks and playtime into my day is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routines, especially when their owners are away! When caring for pets in their own homes, I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free
“Jaylese was great with Radley and sent us pictures and updates on how he was doing. This was the first time we used a service like this and we were very pleased. Thank you!! Definitely be using Jaylese in the future.”
About: I have experience with animals who have special needs. It can be stressful thinking about leaving your pet. Especially if they are on a special diet or in need of medication. I know how important this is to follow. I work full time with 2 days off a week. However, I live just 10 minutes away from work. I am able to check on your pet during my lunch break. I only take one animal in at a time, unless they are from the same household. I live in a condo. We have plenty of sidewalks and grass areas to walk your fur baby. I will make sure they have their feedings, and leave out water during the day. We will watch TV together in the evening. At bedtime I allow the animal to sleep in bed with me. I want your pet to feel like this is their second home.
“Douglas and his dog Sunny took great care of my dog Chance. He followed all my instructions and had excellent communication. He even sent some nice photos that had me reassured Chance was doing okay. When I picked Chance up he was content, tired, and relaxed, all great signs.”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Yareisy! She took amazing care of Loki, and he clearly had the best time during his stay. She went above and beyond by writing a personalized note and sending him home with the cutest souvenirs. We also really appreciated her keeping me updated throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet!”
About: Full time work from home professional looking to fill the gap in my heart from losing my baby. I lost my French bulldog at the age of 4 to IVDD, and can’t bring myself to “replace” him. I’m hoping that I can share the love I have for animals with your fur baby and fill some of my time with the joy they bring me. I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 13 years- dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens are all within my scope of experience. I have experience training young pets basic skills like sit, heel, shake, lay down, etc. I have also cared for special needs dogs, and have an affinity senior pets as well. If you’re looking for someone to love your pet like their own, you’ve come to the right person! As a work from home employee, I am glad to facilitate doggy daycare or overnight stays at my house. ~1,200sqft with plenty of space for playtime, non-smoking home. My neighborhood is very walkable, with a trail nearby if your fur baby needs a little bit more exercise. Drop ins and walks I can do after I get off at 5pm. I care for any pet with the level of detail many do not. I am very in tune with animals under my care, and have identified physical issues before they started showing symptoms. Your pet is now my family to, and I will do anything to keep them safe, comfortable, and loved.

I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter than Pauline. She welcomed Pinky into her home for 10 days and provided outstanding care. The video updates she sent throughout the stay were fantastic and showed just how well Pinky was settling in. It is such a relief to find a sitter who is so reliable and genuinely loves animals. Thank you, Pauline!
Araceli & Uciel are wonderful! Such good and conscientious carers, understand dogs well and especially senior dogs. Our little old guy came home with a pep in his steps and we are so eternally grateful for their care. Her little furbabies are so intuitive and knew how to gently treat our old guy too.
Agnes was such a pleasure to meet. She answered all of our questions and immediately made our dog feel welcome and comfortable. During the stay, she took our pet on regular walks and kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. I would definitely recommend Agnes to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. Five stars!
Chris and Fernanda took such great care of our mini goldendoodle Eevee. Eevee felt comfortable with the whole family and their son Luke right away. They also sent lots of photos and updates. We’re so glad to have been able to find them for a last minute trip and would highly recommend !

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in New Britain can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their New Britain 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 New Britain.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Britain. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your New Britain 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
