“Pam was great. She posted a lot of pictures to let us know Luna was having fun and communicated daily. You could tell she had a lot of experience with dogs and with petting sitting/boarding. We would definitely use Pam again for the next time we go out of town.”
“Saori took fantastic care of our large doodle Toby for two weeks while we were traveling. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, which was really great. Toby had so much fun and will be going back next time we travel. I highly recommend Saori to anyone who needs a skilled and kind person to care of their pet.”
“Our dog, Bagel, enjoyed a wonderful vacation of his own with Nicole! This was his second time staying with Nicole. Bagel is pretty social so being able to play with Nicole's own dogs as well as any other boarders was just the best treat for him. Nicole's daily pictures and quick updates gave peace of mind and assured us that we made the right choice for boarding. Thank you and we will definitely be back!”
“So glad I found Rich! Apollo had a total blast playing with the dogs the 2 days he was there. Rich sent lots of videos & pictures which made me feel so comfortable that he was doing well! Rich was very accomodating & has a great way with dogs. Would definitely leave Apollo there again!”
“Sue was absolutely wonderful with Ollie! She was kind, attentive, and took great care of him throughout his stay. Communication was effortless, as she was always prompt with her replies and kept us reassured with regular updates. We also really appreciated how flexible she was with her schedule, easily accommodating our drop off and pick up times. Ollie had a fantastic time with her, and we could not have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Sue to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“Jessica was great at watching Gwen! She was able to accommodate our last-minute request after another sitter cancelled. She was very communicative about Gwen’s stay and sent plenty of photos and updates. She took great care of our little pup!”
“Great experience from beginning to end. It was our first time leaving Gigi with a sitter. Dew kept us updated and sent photos, which was a great comfort to us. Will definitely use her again.”
“Annette is truly a dog/animal lover. After our meet and greet, we felt very comfortable leaving our pups in her hands for our wedding. I did not stress once that they were not being well taken care of. Annette has set up her home to be prepared for all pets’ personalities. When we picked our dogs up, Annette gave us a full and detailed report of how their stay was. They left happy and relaxed! Thank you, Annette!”
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“We are so happy to have found Erika! She takes great care of our 19lb doodle and sends lots of photos. She’s super easy to communicate with and is very personable as well.”
“Kyle was a wonderful dog sitter!! Very attentive to all of Hugo’s needs and very caring. I would definitely book with him again. He gives frequent updates and really goes the extra mile to make sure you feel comfortable with how your dog is doing. The location of his home is also perfect for dogs that like spending time outside and enjoy playing with other dogs. I felt confident Hugo was safe and happy.”
“I am so happy to have found Lily to watch my dog, Harper, who has separation anxiety. Lily was warm and friendly. She kept in contact by sharing photos and videos. Harper had a great time and I wouldn't hesitate to have Lily as a sitter again. Thanks Lily!!”
“Isabel was great! Excellent communication before and during stay, with lots of pics. She was very patient with our older, anxious dog. Excellent physical space with lots of room to play safely. Would absolutely recommend Isabel.”
“Another great stay with Valerie! This is my 9 month old, Pointer puppy's second overnight stay. Valerie is very flexible with drop off & pick up times. My puppy was able to play with other dogs & had exercise even with the frigid temperatures. I also received photos & an update about how things were going!”
“Rachael is the best dogsitter ever! She always seems to have a house full of dogs (some her own, some sittees), and my dog has a wonderful time and even comes home a little more trained! I cannot recommend her enough -- she is warm and kind and clearly just loves dogs.”
“I had a last minute request and Jomini responded almost immediately and saved the day. She asked questions to make sure my dog had the proper precautions to be outdoors at her place and checked with me about any specific schedule before drop off. She was super responsive and flexible with timing for drop off / pick up. She sent so many pictures of my dog and I could see he was having a great time!”
“Clementine was amazing with my dog Matilda. She was great about giving me updates and photos throughout the day. Truly kept me at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. I will be rebooking again soon. Thank you!”
“This was out first time leaving our dog with a pet sitter. We met with Kayla and felt comfortable leaving Lexi in her care. Kayla was responsive, great at communicating and sharing photos. It was a positive experience.”
“Excellent care of my puppy again. My little Bailey can sometimes be shy or anxious. When I dropped her off, she was so excited to be there, ran off to play immediately and never looked back! Lol That let me know that she likes it there and this family takes care of her.”

Sarah was perfect for Fern! We felt she knew how to give Fern the attention she needed. We loved that she has her own dog, Otto, who liked her upon the first meeting. They became good friends and we hope to have play dates in the future. Next time we want a getaway without our fur baby, we know who to call.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in New Fairfield on Rover is $42.8 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 .

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.
96% of New Fairfield 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 New Fairfield 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 New Fairfield 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 Fairfield.
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 New Fairfield 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.
