“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Trixie! It’s greatly appreciated. While we hate leaving her, knowing someone else cares for her as much as we do makes it a little easier.”
“Colette was great with our two dogs, she has a lovely backyard where they got plenty of exercise and made themselves at home in her living room lounging on the couch and playing with their toys! I’d definitely recommend her for your pups care!”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old puppy Bo. Samantha is amazing!!! She took such great care of Bo! He arrived to her with a fear of stairs from slipping on a couple of steps recently. Samantha worked on his fear while he was with her. He is a little timid still, but since getting home yesterday from Samantha’s, he went up and down with no problem. She even gave us tips and tricks to use if he was reluctant. He enjoyed walks with Samantha and has a new friend, her dog Mac and got to enjoy playing with him. We were updated daily and I had no worries @ all while we were away. We will definitely use her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Laura and I’m an experienced dog mom of nearly two decades. I know how to keep dogs feeling safe, clean, fed, and cared for when their owners need some help. I can offer special care and also give medications if needed. Note: I can only accommodate small dog breeds. My dog named “Tallulah” is a 9Ib female (spayed) Maltese. She is very dog friendly, though, we can discuss whether you’d like your dog to spend time with Tallulah or be in a separate area of my home. I can accommodate any specific requests you may have! 💞 🐾 I currently work remotely from home so dog boarding is available Monday-Sunday! I am present for the entirety of your dogs stay. My goal is to provide the care your dog is accustomed to at home so the experience is not only safe but enjoyable 🏠 🐾 ❤️ All dogs in my care will be tending to just like they’re at a special dog hotel and on a schedule of your choosing. My home is very quiet, private, and safe. I can accommodate any specific requests you may have! 💞 🐾
“This was our very first time leaving our dog Scarlet with a sitter other than family and needless to say I was a bit anxious...but after our meet and great day I knew Patrick and Susan were the sitters for her! It was definitely like a home away from home feel. They had a great set-up in their home and yard for Scarlet to feel comfortable. They are very caring and went above and beyond with Scarlet. The day we were supposed to drop Scarlet off, she had developed a sore on her hind leg and Patrick and Susan were so wonderful and reassuring that they would take good care of it. We were taking a trip for a week out of the country and felt so comfortable knowing Scarlet was in great hands! All the photos, texts and updates on Scarlet were even more reassuring! We are so grateful to have found Patrick and Susan for Scarlet and definitely will be using them again! We totally recommend them!!”
“Erica allowed me to book last minute and was accommodating and communicative. The entire weekend Erica sent updates and pictures. I felt so comfortable leaving my pup with her. We will use her each time we need someone for dog sitting/boarding.”
“Adrian was great with our dog. He kept us updated on how she was doing and sent pictures she was very comfortable in his home. Highly recommend we will be using his services again.”
“Leaving your dog for a couple of nights can be stressful, especially when your dog is your soul dog, but Suzanne made the entire experience so easy. From the moment Yarrow arrived, I could tell she was in great hands. I honestly think Yarrow believed she was on her own little vacation lol. She absolutely adored Suzanne, her wonderful kids, and the other dogs. Every update showed a happy, relaxed dog living her best life. One of the things I appreciated most was Suzanne’s communication. She sent updates, pictures, and little stories that made me smile and let me know exactly how Yarrow was doing. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your dog as if they’re her own, look no further. Five stars simply aren’t enough. I’d give 10 stars if I could!”
“Cailey took care of my senior cat for an extended time and took great care of her. Cailey kept me updated on how my cat was doing, including for a period of time where my cat wasn’t eating as much. My cat will do this on occasion so I wasn’t concerned, and appreciated Cailey noticing and checking in with me about that. I would absolutely work with Cailey again, thank you!”
“Saskia was Amazing. She communicated throughout the entire trip and sent me Wonderful pictures everyday. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be looking forward to having her take care of our dog in the future.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Kimberly. One of the reasons I chose her was for the fenced in backyard and no other pets and I wasn’t disappointed! She seemed relaxed, and I think my dog got the same vibe from her, because he seemed to be relaxed too! I will definitely use her again.”
“Anne took great care of our dog, Ralph, while we were away. We got daily photo and text updates that gave us total peace of mind. Ralph came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Pluto LOVED staying with Marie. She sent many photos and kept me updated on Plutos stay. He was cuddled up in most of the photos and had the best time playing with Marie and her husband. Pluto got so much love and lots of treats during his stay. Pluto will be back to see Marie again soon!!”
“Stacy took great care of our dog for 10 days while we were out of the country. Being far away from a much loved pet can be tough. But we had no concerns because we knew she was in good hands. When we went to pick up our pup was super happy and obviously enjoyed her time with Stacy in a very dog friendly environment.”
“Carolina is simply amazing. She is so accommodating and trustworthy. I had at least two updates, pictures, and videos of my little guy. Her family is wonderful, loving, and caring. I will be using her again on our next vacation.”
“I was very nervous leaving my sweet hound, once a stray, with anyone but my own mom, but when she moved out of state, I had to find someone. I could not have found better hands to leave Loretta in! Julie cared for her perfectly, sent updates, gave her the perfect amount of alone time, and supervised time outside with other sweet dogs. I picked her up on a windy night, but I don’t think that was the only reason Loretta was reluctant to get in the car, I think she truly loved her new extended family!”
“Leanne is awesome! My dog is very old and she was so knowledgeable about how to take care of him. Leanne sent photos everyday and provided me with a roundup about how my dog was doing. Leanne’s dog is also wonderful…so calm and quiet which was great. I 100% trust her with my dog.”
“Boa was a wonderful sitter who watched over my baby Sunny like he was her own. Boa has a lovely home and is very kind and attentive. Her response time was also fast and communication clear. I highly recommend Boa to be the home away from home for your furry loved ones.”
“Once again, we couldn’t be happier that our puppy, Lucy, was able to stay with Dawn and her family while we were out of town! We love that Lucy is not only so well cared for, but also gets to socialize with Dawn’s younger kids, their friends, and other dogs throughout her stay (we love getting photos and updates!) Lucy came home happy and exhausted - thank you, Dawn!”

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.
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 Pomfret 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 Pomfret 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 Pomfret.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pomfret. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Pomfret 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
