“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!!”

“Anita was responsive, courteous and very pleasant. It was my first time boarding our 6 month old puppy (Moose) so naturally I was a bit nervous beforehand. Anita did a lot to reassure me during Moose's stay and I was able to communicate with her regularly. Moose came back happy and tired after spending time with Anita and her family. I would definitely recommend Anita to anyone looking for a welcoming environment for their dog!”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful with Bean this weekend. She treated her like her own and gave her so much love and attention. Bean was completely spoiled — she even got to sleep in bed with them! 🥰 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring, capable hands. Laura kept us updated and made the whole experience seamless. We would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love on your pup. Thank you again for taking such great care of our girl!”

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with energetic dogs, strong breeds, and dogs with unique needs or routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and will always follow your care instructions carefully. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, cared for, and stress-free while giving you peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work Monday-Thursdays at my full time job but work around it to care for your pets! I’m off on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for more attentive care but also can do pop ins and walks during the week as well depending on distance. I have three dogs and a cat in my own home. They are all very friendly but can be separated from your pet if needed! I have a fenced in yard as well and extra crates. Whether your animals come to my house or I come to yours they will be cared for like they’re my own. I’m very picky with who I let take care of my own dogs and I understand that every dog has different needs that should be upheld.

About: I love pets, they are the cutest addition to our lives. I have a dog of my own, she is 2 1/2 years old, very playful and friendly. I have had pets since childhood and love taking care of them, we have a house and a fenced yard, hence your pup is safe to play outdoors whenever they want. They are allowed on furniture too. Will love to take care of your precious little baby 😊 I work from home few times a week and my mom stays at home full time, so someone is always there to play with your pups and to take care of them. I have a fenced yard so they are safe when playing outdoors, I can take them on walks weather permitting, if they like to sleep in their crate they can do so too, potty breaks according to their schedule and have fun indoors. Will love to give them a safe place when they’re away from home 🏡

Izzy seemed to have a great time here! She loved playing with their dog Madden and another doggie that is a regular there. She stayed there for 6 nights for the first time and they took her to the park and played everyday. They also made them yummy cooked carrot treats and Izzy just loved being there with the other pups. Iz would love to stay again for play days, great doggie friendly home :)

My dog had a wonderful stay and I’m beyond satisfied. She was well taken care of, enjoyed being with the other super friendly and playful dogs, and my dog even got included field trips to long walks, play time at the brook, and a dip in the pool. Felt very comfortable and will book again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Plainville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Plainville on Rover is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $50 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 894 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Plainville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Plainville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Plainville 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 Plainville.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Plainville 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.
