Janelle was so great and Storm had a wonderful time! She sent plenty of photos while we were away and really put us at ease! Will definitely rely on her again when we need a sitter.

Jennifer is a great pet sitter. She did an outstanding job with my Nala. She was very responsive with my messages and sent many updates of Nala during her short stay. Nala had a great time and she always looked happy in the videos. We will definitely be back in the future. I totally recommend Jennifer.

My dog, Atticus, age 2, had his first full day with Margaret a few days ago. He was very well taken care of including a couple of walks. He was happy to play fetch and take naps after walking. It was easy to tell by his face and composure that he had a great day...there was no visible stress when he returned home. Another dependable companion 'star' in his young life when I am not around! Many thanks, M :)

Sherry is the best dog sitter I have ever used! She’s all about making sure your pet is well cared for. Nugget, my chihuahua, absolutely loves her! She cries when we pull into her driveway because she’s so excited and once she sees Sherry, she jumps all over her giving her love and kisses. Sherry will work with you to get your pet used to her before providing a service. Sherry is all about what’s best for your pet. I’m always so relaxed when Nugget is with her because I know she’s having fun and being well cared for. Sherry is AWESOME!!!! I highly recommend her!!!

About: Your dog is more than a pet — they’re family. We provide a warm, loving, and secure environment where your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for. Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can rest easy knowing your dog is in trusted hands, getting belly rubs, playtime, and the personal attention they deserve. Because peace of mind isn’t a luxury — it’s a promise. Consider me as your on-call pet sitter. I have currently moved to California all the way from the east coast. Whenever you need me, I’m here ! How I Care for Pets in Your Home – With Safety, Trust, and Comfort at the Heart of It All When I care for your pets, whether I’m house sitting, walking them, or simply dropping in, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has a unique routine, personality, and needs — and I take the time to learn and follow your instructions closely to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. In your home, I maintain a calm, respectful presence, keeping your pet’s environment clean, stress-free, and familiar. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and gentle companionship, always with an eye on their behavior and well-being. For drop-ins and walks, I show up reliably and treat your pet like my own — keeping them on safe routes, away from hazards, and paying close attention to their body language and comfort. I always prioritize secure leash handling, water breaks, and positive reinforcement. Your trust means everything to me, and I care for your pets and home with professionalism, love, and integrity.

Mylinda is FANTASTIC!!! I immediately felt comfortable leaving my dog in her hands. She sent me lots of photos of their walks together. When I picked him up after a weekend away he was super happy. I'll most definitely have Mylinda watch my dog when I'm away in a couple of months. I would give her more 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟

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.

Ethan was able to take Zoey on short notice, which we really appreciated. We had never used a dog sitter before, but Ethan put us at ease. Zoey fit in with their Lola and cuddled right up to everyone. Ethan sent pictures almost daily. We think Zoey had fun. We will definitely use Ethan again and highly recommend him. Thanks Ethan!

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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Newington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 962 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Newington. About 91% of Newington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
