Sean and Jill are great and Gwendolyn always looks forward to coming for a stay. I have a very tiny 4.5lb dog and very particular with whom I leave her with because of her size. I love the fact that they only take in small dogs as this tells me that they take the precautions needed to accommodate Gwendolyns size

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!!

Kathryn and Jeremy took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!

Rumi was great! From the moment I arrived she was so sweet and I could tell I had found the right place to leave my little guy. She has a large fenced in yard that my pup was able to run in safely. I received lots of picture and video updates through out the day and he always looked like he was smiling 😊. Every vitamin and food regimen were followed to a T. Rumi will definitely be our go to! This was my first experience with Rover, but I will definitely not be looking elsewhere. Thank you so much Rumi, you made Sky's stay so joyous and peaceful!

Careen was wonderful with our senior dog and he loved her just as much as she loved him! She gave him lots of love and attention- I could tell he was very well cared for while we were away. We got lots of pictures and updates so I was completely at ease. We can’t wait to have Careen watch Shadow again!

Anita and her family sent photos and stayed with me on text letting me know how she was. She was very happy to help us and gentle with our husky who gets anxiety away from us! She is now the permanent person to care for our pup when we go away! Thank you Anita if I could give 10 Stars we would!❤️❤️❤️

I had to book a last minute stay for my golden retriever. Zoe answer within minutes and was willing to take care of my girl even with just a couple of hours notice. I was very nervous, its the first time I leave my dog with a sitter. I am very happy with Zoe's job. She took very good care of my girl. Definitely recommend her and will contact her again if needed.

Haoran was absolutely amazing! She took care of my pup for five days and was incredibly attentive and patient the whole time. I really appreciated how she took the time to observe and learn about my dog’s personality to help her feel more comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout, and my very active dog got tons of exercise — she even went on a two-hour hike that she absolutely loved! When my pup ran out of food, Haoran kindly provided her own without hesitation. My dog can be pretty anxious, but Haoran and her husband showed such patience and genuine care. I’m so grateful for her passion for animals and will definitely be booking with her again!

Careen was absolutely wonderful with Cooper. She was responsive, flexible, and so loving throughout his stay. The photos she sent made it clear he was having the best time — tons of outdoor adventures and plenty of cozy indoor snuggles. Cooper came home happy and relaxed, and I know he can’t wait for his next visit with her. Highly recommend!

This was my first time ever leaving my Freddy with someone he didn’t already know, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took the time to meet Fred, sent me pics, and made him feel at ease right from the start. I got regular updates that completely put my mind at ease, and I could tell he was getting unlimited attention and love. I’d 100% trust her with him again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Newington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newington on Rover is $49.95 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 .

As of July 2026, there are 932 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newington. 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 Newington 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 Newington 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 Newington 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 Newington.

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 Newington 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.
