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.
“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!!!”
“Michelle did an amazing job with our dog. She was very loving and caring towards him. I could see in the photos and videos that Michelle sent that our dog was happy and well taken care of. I would definitely book with Michelle again and highly recommend her.”
“My dogs are always well cared-for and happy when they stay with Lisa! She is communicative and flexible, and sends photos. Convenient location in quiet neighborhood with private yard. Thanks!”
About: I provide loving, attentive pet care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining routines, exercise, feeding schedules, individualized attention, and clear owner communication. (Bilingual) Habló español Pet care fits into my routine part-time and per diem, allowing me to dedicate quality time, flexibility, and focused attention to each pet without feeling rushed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I keep environments clean, safe, calm, and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind.
“Janelle was so great! This was our first stay with her and she made sure our dogs were comfortable and it was the perfect fit. We were given pictures and updates too. I have complete trust in her and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Our dog, who is a recent rescue and a little nervous, settled in quickly. Haoran sent us lots of updates and pictures, whichhelped us feel comfortable about her stay. We will definitely use her again!”
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.
“I think Biscuit loved staying with her, he tried to pull me back into her apt. when I picked him up. She sent plenty photos showing her dogs snuggling up with Biscuit like they were always best friends forever. Would book again!”
“Katie was wonderful. This was short notice and she could not have been more accommodating. Tully had a great time playing with the other pups and came home happy and exhausted. I highly recommend Katie.”
“Tim was conscientious by carefully seperating dogs that had different temperaments but still keeping them all engaged and loved on. He was attentive and communicative and I would definitely use his services again.”
“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 :)”
“Joshua and Jamie were absolutely amazing with our dogs! They cared for our boys like they were their own family! We were kept updated in regard to some complicated health issues our senior dogs are going through and they managed their medication routine very professionally. They also sent us cute pictures and videos of our boys playing with their dogs and it made us feel like we weren’t so far away :) We wish there were more stars for us to rate with and very, very highly recommend them!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newington
Zoe always takes such good care of our pup. While we were gone, she noticed our dog seemed to have an ear infection so she took it upon herself to schedule a vet appointment and notify me. Super grateful for her and knowing my dog is in good care when we’re gone!
Noel and his family were the perfect fit for our two dogs! Our dogs loved spending time in the fenced in backyard and getting attention all day long. They sent various updates throughout the day and lots of pictures of their stay. We could not recommend a better stay for your dog!
Jennifer was an excellent dog sitter and incredibly communicative throughout Chewie’s stay. She sent us plenty of pictures and even a video, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away on our three-day trip. It was clear that Chewie was in excellent hands and genuinely loved spending time with Jennifer and her family. By the end of his stay, we were fairly certain he wasn’t going to want to come home with us! 😊 We would absolutely trust Jennifer with Chewie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.
I highly recommend Klaudia. She did a great job with our dog, Macy. Klaudia has a kind family and two sweet dogs of her own. She sent several pictures, which I loved. I could tell our dog was comfortable and happy with Klaudia. I was worried Macy may not want to come home with us! We will definitely be coming back in the future.
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!
Chris and Fernanda took such great care of our mini goldendoodle Eevee. Eevee felt comfortable with the whole family and their son Luke right away. They also sent lots of photos and updates. We’re so glad to have been able to find them for a last minute trip and would highly recommend !
Rumi is our go to every time! Sky loves going to their house and he is always so happy when I pick him up. I can tell he is treated like one of the family and I always feel at peace when he is there. Thank you again Rumi & family for providing such a lovely stay for Sky and being so accommodating 🙏🙏

There are 943 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Newington. About 92% 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.

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.
