“Otter always looks forward to going to Stephanie's home! He romps and plays with the other dogs, and she takes fabulous care of him while I'm away. He gets to go on nature walks, relax in her bed, and play and be a dog! She sends frequent updates, and I'm always comforted by how happy Otter looks! I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking through Rover to take care of their pup!!!!”
“Bianca is very responsible and does an amazing job at caring for my dog. I have left my dog with her multiple time in the past and every time she goes above and beyond. Thank you Bianca!”
“My pup just had a 2 week stay with Anthony. Anthony took great care of my pup and followed all the instructions well. He sent me pictures and videos daily. We’re going away again for a week and I already booked with Anthony again.”
“Davon was amazing. I outreached very impromptu and he was available for a meet and greet with Arya. ( which went well. We reviewed the basics of her care and he made sure to get a full understanding of what is needed to make Aryas stay as comfortable as possible) drop off was nice. He has spacious living accommodations. What stood out is his willingness to work with Arya being that she is a Bully. There are a many false conceptions about this breed. With his family background working with bully’s and pitbull, and his love for animals in general, I had no concerns that Arya was in good care. During her overnight visit, he provided checks up and sent pictures for reassurance. He also introduced Arya to family and friends ( which I love ) being that she is not around other dogs or people, helping her socialize. Picking Arya up was easy. All items returned and she was happy ! I previously boarded her , and when picking her up she was distant, had scratches and limped !!! All in all, 5 stars for Devon. I recommend and will use him again. 🐾💕”
“Sai took such a good care of our little Moxie while we were gone for the weekend! Not only did she took her in with such a short notice from our end, she also made sure to play with her, feed her as we instructed, and overall provide Moxie a welcoming environment while we were gone. Sai updated us very frequently about how Moxie was doing and for any other questions she wanted to ask us. She even provided such cute pictures of our girl! I definitely recommend and trust Sai to take care of your kitties when needed. She is very kind, responsible, and very understanding :). Thank you, Sai!!”
“Brianna always takes the best care of Oakley! He gets to excited to stay with her and her dogs. We will continue to use Brianna to take care of Oakley while we’re out of town!”
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“My dog’s first time staying with Mariana. She came back happy, clearly receiving enough care and stimulation. I was sent plenty of pictures and updates, and did not worry while my dog was in the care of a new sitter.”
“Alessandra took great care of our 6mo old puppy! She was communicative/responded quickly and flexible with our changing plans. Would definitely recommend!”
“If there was a 5+ I would leave it as a review!! Anne-Marie treated Gracie as if she washer own. I was nervous to leave her at first, but Anne-Marie sent us photos of Gracie every day. She also made sure that Gracie got her medicine every day. She is awesome and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Mari was amazing with my girl Mabel. I boarded with her for a week and she was consistent with updates and keeping up with my dogs high energy levels. Her dog Duke was a great playmate for her and she took her to the dog park for daily playtime. Would absolutely recommend her services and rebook for my next trip away. She’s the best!”
“Mikayla and Justin were incredible! They took such great care of my GSP Goose and sent very detailed and organized updates on how he was doing and made sure to get him an ample amount of exercise everyday. He looked so happy! Also they were extremely understanding and flexible when I had to pick him up a little late due to my return flight getting delayed. Will definitely be using them again!”
“Allyson was wonderful. Very responsive and really understood how to care for an older dog. I have never left Lieben with anyone during her 14 year life so I was anxious to start. Allyson calmed my nerves at the first conversation and throughout the stay. She would provided updates and pictures everyday and confirmed how well Lieben was doing. Every dog is different and for me Allyson was the right fit for Lieben. She was kind, caring and the home environment matched what Lieben is used to. Her and her husband are wonderful people who have hearts for dogs. HIGHLY recommend her to care for your fur baby. I appreciate and am grateful to have met such a lovely person. Will book with her again!”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“Brittney is a wonderful- for the first time in years I can go away without too much guilt! My dog is a little spoiled frenchie and Brittney and her family take such good care of her! I am forever grateful:)”

Sai was excellent and amazing when boarding my dog for a couple of days. Followed all instructions given and provided updates throughout the day. Since this was my first time using this app I was a bit skeptical with everyone but I gained confidence because Sai is amazing at care for our loved ones. Will definitely book again if needed, Highly recommended.
Catie and her husband took excellent care of my dog Monsoon. They are kind, caring and were communicative throughout with regular photos and updates. It was clear that they immediately made him feel at home, which is quite a feat with his puppy energy and separation anxiety! Their fenced yard and home is the perfect setup for dogs, and they also took him on regular walks, which he loves. I would highly recommend them to care for any fur babies!
I recently had Chris dog board for my dog, Luna, for about 9 days and Chris was so great! I felt so relieved to leave my dog, Luna with him. He was super accommodating and sent daily pictures updating Luna’s time. She had a blast playing in the fenced in yard with his dog, Felix! I would 100% recommend Chris to anyone in need of dog services and I would use again in the future!!! Thanks again for everything!!
First time Rover user here! Stephanie took great care of our pups and their owners! She accommodated us on short notice, took excellent care listening to and adhering to their needs, and sent lots of pictures and updates so we stayed connected. The dogs loved their walks, interacting with her pups, and we're extremely well adjusted coming home. I would highly recommend her for your pets' next stay, and expect to be a very satisfied repeat customer in the future!
Kiayla is an absolute joy to meet with a positive caring attitude towards the care and safety of our fur baby. She was attentive to his needs in this new experience and environment, as well as showing him who’s the boss to continue consistent care and expectations for a pleasant stay. I would definitely recommend her and book Ms. Kiayla again.
Ashley was very reliable, excellent care giver. She walked my dog every day. I was so lucky to have Ashley available to take care of Charlie my little dog. Charlie was so excited to see Ashley’s beautiful and friendly dog , I really loved petting her dog, he was so cute and so smart. I definitely rebook with Ashley whenever I am back in New Haven. Location was great too! Near Yale.
Katherine took wonderful care of our dog, Petunia, during her stay over a recent, long weekend. She sent frequent messages and photos as to Petunia's activities which gave us great confidence that Petunia was happy and comfortable staying with Katherine. We will definitely book a stay with Katherine in the future when Petunia needs boarding.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in New Haven on Rover is $53.28 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 1,204 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across New Haven. 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 New Haven 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 Haven 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 Haven 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 Haven.
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 Haven 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.
