“I'm so glad that I discovered Rover and found Joni. We will never leave our furbaby at the kennel again. She has the perfect set up for taking care of our Mack. She is also very easy to work with and responds immediately to any questions that come up. We will be using her again and again!”
“Highly recommend! Cooper was well taken care of and Martha provided regular updates with photos. She went above and beyond, taking him for walks and playing fetch. It was heart warming to see Cooper cuddle up to her as we left, not wanting to leave. A true testament to her care and attention. We will definitely be seeing her for future boarding opportunities!”
“This is the second time Rachel has taken care of our two dogs. She and her girls love our dogs like they are their own. When we picked up Coco and Pebbles, they were happy and well taken care of. We will recommend and use Rachel’s services again.”
“Marty and her family were truly outstanding. This was the first time I left my dog with anyone other than family, and she filled that void. She provided frequent communication of his acclimation to her house and family, along with updates of activities she had planned for him. My dog left Marty's happy and relaxed. Very thankful for Marty; we will be back!”
“Kelly was absolutely amazing with my dog!!! She sent multiple pictures, videos, and updates every day that I was gone. She was also very friendly and easy to work with. Her house was perfect for dogs with a very nice fenced in back yard. She had lots of toys and treats available, and she even had a crate to use since my dog usually sleeps in a crate at night. She asked all about allergies and how she handled being around other dogs. This was my first time ever using Rover and so I was nervous at first but I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with her before I left. And the entire experience ended up being just perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend Kelly and will definitely be using her again!”
“One issue - Stella was wayyyyyy too spoiled! We felt very comfortable with Michelle and she communicated well from the first meet and greet to the week long stay. You can tell she truly loves animals and we will use her again. Thanks for making her feel at home and we also appreciate the fact that there is only one client at a time.”
“Andrew did an excellent job caring for my Charlie-baby, he sent lots of pictures and always texted me right back when I got in touch with him to ask how she was doing. When I need pet care again I will definitely be looking for Andrew💞”
“This is the first time we have used this service. Holly was very friendly at our meet-and-greet...I could tell that she was an animal lover. We were still very nervous, because our Oliver is 8 months of crazy. But, Holly really treated our Oliver like he was part of her family. She sent us pictures during his stay...he seemed very happy. We highly recommend Holly and if a need ever arises again, we will definitely ask her. Thank you Holly for your compassion and patience with our little one.”
“Toni watched our two dogs over the Fourth of July weekend. One of ours is easygoing, but the other has fear aggression and did not do well with the fireworks. Toni gave him tons of love and extra attention and he eventually warmed up to her! Words cannot describe how much we appreciated that! Thank you, Toni, for being so understanding and patient.”
“Greta ia AMAZING!! She took great care of my Louis while I was away also keeping contact with me and sent pics of his activities. I will definitely hire her as a sitter in the future and recommend anyone who is in need to hire her!!☺️”
“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”
“Sara and John were a great fit for my two high energy dogs. Their entire family loved having the dogs around and spent alot of time out doors or snuggled up. They were very communicative throught the entire stay as well and I received loads of pictures of my happy girls.”
“My dog Noah had a great time with Chris over the weekend. I appreciated the way Chris communicated about how he was doing, was responsive to my messages, and sent daily pictures of my pup.”
“Victoria has a clean house and a great yard for a dog . Her family is sweet and communication was excellent. The meet and greet went well and we finalized our booking and she sent pictures every day that made me feel reassured. She was attentive to all his needs and our needs and even picked him up and dropped him off. I would definitely use her services again. I have used Rover about four times in this was easily our best experience.”
“Everything about this experience was great. Hope treated the dogs as if they were her own. Picking them up, they almost didn't want to leave. Highly recommend Hope and will contact her again when we need a sitter.”
“Brittany was such a great sitter for our pups and very communicative. Our dogs had a great time and were very well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to re-book with her!”
“Kellie picks up with the coddling of Micah as soon as we drop him off. She sends many pictures showing him playing in the backyard or sitting inside with his dog and human friends. We hit a goldmine with her as our pet sitter. Thanks for removing all worries about Micah’s care whenever we’re away 🐾”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in New Haven on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of July 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.
94% 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 MI 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.
