“Nandita was absolutely wonderful! We set up a meeting ahead of time to make sure my rescue would get along well with her dog Ozzy and my pup was immediately comfortable with her (you can tell she’s a dog person!) and she helped him get comfortable and acclimate to her space before we confirmed- this really put me at ease. During my dog’s stay Nandita sent regular photos and videos so that while I was away I always knew that my pup was content and happy. She has excellent communication throughout the whole planning and visit and as an added bonus her space is perfect for a dog stay especially her backyard, dog friendly neighborhood, etc. I look forward to booking with Nandita again and really think she is an incredible dog sitter. Thank you Nandita and Ozzy for a great vacation for our pup and I look forward to booking with you again for future trips!!”
“Carrigan was a wonderful sitter for our pup, Shea. We just moved from NYC and I wasn’t sure how Shea would fare in the suburbs but Carrigan and her dogs were so sweet and playful. Shea had a wonderful time and I would definitely recommend her as a sitter for anyone looking.”
“Luna had a fantastic time! Rich is perfectly equipped for an awesome dog resort! A spacious fenced in back yard, indoor AC, very clean accommodations that are beautifully tiled, plenty of dog beds, separate eating accommodations and monitoring. Rich and his wife took extra care to make Luna feel comfortable in their home....if she could talk, I think she would’ve stayed longer! I will definitely be a repeat customer and have already referred my friends. Thank you Rich!!”
“Kevin did an amazing job watching my dog, Jamie, for the first time! He sent me daily photos of Jamie enjoying walks and relaxing in the sun on the balcony, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Jamie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I know he’s in great hands with Kevin, and I’ll definitely be rebooking!”
“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”
“This was my first time meeting Elaine and I couldn’t be more impressed. She is truly a five-star sitter. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages showing how well our dog Max was doing—playing with the other dogs and clearly enjoying himself. I felt completely confident in her ability to take great care of him. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“My dog Nicolo has stayed with Karine and Ryan for a few short stays which always went well. Recently, he stayed for a week and it was such a great experience for him and for me. Nicolo socialized with the other small dogs. Karine and Ryan are such gentle people with great knowledge about dogs. He got his meds, lots of attention and affection. In addition to being kept safe and having his physical needs met, I feel he really benefits mentally from staying there and I am relaxed and not consumed with worry. Karine always kept me updated with texts and pictures and let me know of any issues. I hope to always leave Nicolo with Karine and Ryan when the need arises.”
About: Cary - 33, Conor 36. available to dog sit in Darien CT. Currently own a mini Australian shepherd named Rhett. Have both had dogs for the past 10 years. We have experience with puppies, high energy dogs, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs (medical issues, food aggressive, ect.) we’ve seen it all and love each and every one of them. I work from home full time and Conor works from home part time so we never have to leave dogs at home for an extended period of time. We have a yard that backs up to over an acre of open space which is great for dogs. But we always make sure to walk our dog at least twice a day on top of letting him out in the yard since he is very active
“Jorge and his two dogs were fantastic with my Bernedoodle! Excellent communication and regular photo/video updates of all the fun. My dog got lots of exercise and play time, and Jorge even went above and beyond by giving him a bath. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again!!”
“Kevin was wonderful. He gave us updates multiple times a day, sent videos and photos. Our dog became a part of his group, and I felt more than safe and confident leaving my dog with him.”
“Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!”
About: I’m the type of sitter who pays attention to the little things — routines, favorite toys, energy levels, and comfort needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I adapt to what each pet needs. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, loved, and understood, and that’s the environment I strive to provide. Plus, you can expect plenty of updates and photos! Pets fit easily into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get the attention, exercise, care, and consistency they need — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just company and cuddles. I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy and comfortable. I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and loving environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and a comfortable space to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I respect their pet’s routine, environment, and instructions to help keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, dietary needs, and comfort, and I make sure owners receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Denise watched my dog Paddy for over a week while he was recovering from Lyme’s. She was very friendly, kind and assuring during this period. She also communicated with me daily and sent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend.”
“Consuelo and family take such great care - we booked for 3 different times in the week. and yes, our puppy keeps asking, "When are we going back?" Highly recommend!!!”
“Elizaveta was wonderful with our dog! She is warm, genuinely loves dogs, and was very flexible with scheduling. We especially appreciated the daily photos and videos she sent. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Our dogs love going to Barbara's house! I always know we found a great sitter when our lab runs right up to the door instead of trying to go back to our car. You can tell she has a profound love for dogs and is very careful to make sure yours feel like home. I will use her over and over again! Thank you!”
“We are so thankful we found Elizabeth & Cole to watch our pup Ellie. Elizabeth was kind enough to pick her up from our home and drop her off before we got back from our trip! We will absolutely be using them in the future!!”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own. I work from home, so I’m available around the clock for taking care of your pets. I live in the Fairfield County area, so I’m available to help you out with your pets! I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.
“Karen is the absolute best. She has been extremely flexible, attentive and beyond sweet with my dog, Coco. If you are looking for someone that is very responsible and trustworthy, then Karen is your person. I highly recommend Karen to anyone in need of pet-sitting services!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Stamford
We are a repeat customer of Carrigan's. Selena always seems to have a good time when she stays over. She's happy, energetic and doesn't really make the mad dash for the car that she sometimes does when she stays with other sitters. I would definitely have her stay with Carrigan again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their North Stamford home-away-from-home, 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 North Stamford.
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 North Stamford 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 , 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 .
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.
