“Alan and Luis are awesome! They are extremely dedicated to taking care of all the pups staying with them and send you great updates and pictures. They are easy to work with, and overall, lovely people. 10/10 recommend for all your pet sitter needs!”
“Ifan was a great sitter for our big boy Dom. He was very good with communication both before and during the sit. He sent pictures and updates about how Dom was doing and all pertinent information. He was very accommodating with our flexible schedule and wr truly appreciated that. We would definitely utilize his services again and we would recommend him for anyone looking for a top notch sitter.”
“Kathryn & Jeremy were great! Their house was cozy and friendly. Our corgi loved playing with their kids and he was definitely tired when he got home. They were great at communication and we felt our dog was safe. Will book with them again!”
“We appreciated Amira so much for taking care of our two rabble-rousers. She provided a comforting presence and I could see they felt completely at home, which isn’t an easy task. In addition, we reached out midway through their stay and she responded immediately- this gave us peace of mind as well. Thank you!”
“Blue was very happy at MJ's. MJ got back to us when no one else could during the beginning of a holiday weekend. She and her family were very accommodating and my pup felt at home there. Super happy with a great first visit ... I would not hesitate at all to bring him back. Plus her pups are friendly and Blue had a great time with them, including playing with the fam in the yard. He's out cold right now, the sign of a fun and active day.”
“Our black lab Lily had such a wonderful time during her stay, she was visibly depressed after we picked her up - missing all her new friends! Will never board her at a kennel again, now that we've found her "home away from home"!”
“Rosmery was wonderful with our fur baby! I received many pictures and videos of Lana. Her and her family made feel our pup like home! Definitely, we will bring Lana back.”
“Greg made us feel so comfortable right away with leaving our 152 lb. Great Dane with him for 5 days! His experience with dogs is so transparent and that was the biggest comfort of all. Greg sent video and pictures while we were away, which always helps making us feel that Moose felt right at home!! Greg will definitely be our caretaker for Moose going forward. Such a great experience. Moose got to spend his days playing with other dogs, running around outside and of course being spoiled.”
“Triba is the best thing that could happen with a super worried cat mom, she arranged our video calls while I was away. She loved her like her own, she is definitely becoming her foster mom permanently ?”
“Didn’t get to meet Inam but Jennifer was amazing with my Ralphie! She’s very patient and kind, all the good qualities needed to take great care of your pets. They sent pictures and updates almost every day which was much appreciated. Looked like my pup had a lot of fun. I’ll definitely be using their services again!”
“Elizette was fantastic with my dog. She clearly loves animals and she made sure he was comfortable and happy during his stay. She and her family treated him as their own. She sent me lots of updates and I was so impressed with the care she put into taking care of him.”
“Belle had a great experience with Russ and Janet once again. They took great care of her with lots of walks and pets. It's so reassuring that we can leave Belle with caring sitters. Thank you!”
“Carmela was super nice with my elder dog. My chihuahua suffered violence from a teenager and now his behavior is not the best. Carmela was so comprehensive and knew how to manage him to keep him feel safe in her home. I am so thankful that she received my baby in her home for the time I had to travel.”
“My dog loves to play and I can tell he had a lot of fun running & playing during his stay cause he came home exhausted & conked right out when he got home, and also slept in the next morning. I had to wake him up at 8 a.m. Lol.”

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 Poquonock 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 Poquonock.
<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 Poquonock 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.
