“Enzo had a great time! Christle is very quick at replying back whenever I wanted updates and had questions. Sent videos and pictures throughout his stay with her! I was very pleased and comfortable leaving my 5month old puppy in her hands!”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave our dog! From the very beginning, Careen were kind, reliable, and attentive to every detail. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog was in such loving hands. We could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the stay. Thank you for treating our pet like family — we highly recommend your dog care service to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate!”
“Nadjeska watched out 8 month old doodle for a couple of days and was amazing. Communication before and during his stay was great. We got a lot of pictures and updates and Cody seemed to enjoy his stay!”
“Melanie was absolutely exceptional with my pug, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which made it easy to relax while I was away. My pug is a quirky girl with plenty of personality, and it was clear she was comfortable, happy, and truly cared for the entire time. Melanie provided regular updates and photos that showed just how attentive and loving she was. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and genuinely thoughtful pet sitter, Melanie is the one to book. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and would recommend her to anyone—especially fellow pug parents!”
“Dyan did a great job caring for my dog, Pippin. I could tell he was very comfortable at her house with her and Aiko. Communication was great, she was flexible and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again with her in the future!”
“Douglas and his dog Sunny took great care of my dog Chance. He followed all my instructions and had excellent communication. He even sent some nice photos that had me reassured Chance was doing okay. When I picked Chance up he was content, tired, and relaxed, all great signs.”
“Georgiana took great care of our dog Max! She sent us daily updates with pictures and we could tell he was super happy which gave us so much peace of mind while out of town. I would definitely book with Georgiana again!”
“Our much loved girl was very well care for. Angela sent many pictures and updates which we loved while away. Our girl is a bit of a picky eater and Angeal went above and beyond to accommodate. We would book again.”
“Mylinda was wonderful with Milo! She was very accommodating with my last-minute needs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. She sent pictures and updates multiple times a day, was very responsive, and handled any unexpected situations really well. Milo seemed happy and well taken care of when I picked him up. I really appreciated how communicative and attentive she was throughout the week and would definitely book with her again!”
“Rocky had a great stay with Kevin and Brian! He came home nice and tired from all his playing and he was cared for well! This was our second time with Kevin and Brian and we recommend them for any of your fur babies!”
“Stephen was a great fit for my Abbie. He and his wife took excellent care of her and sent pictures en very day and a couple of videos. It was my first time leaving her with someone outside her home environment. I have already booked him for another week in September. I highly recommend him if you need to board your dog.”
“Gigi had a fabulous time staying with Ariel, as evidenced by the photos of her racing around with a few of her new best dog friends that Ariel sent us each day of our six-day trip. From her description of her property, Ariel's accommodations stood out, with its big, fenced backyard and in-the-house living for dog guests. Although leash walks were an additional option, we knew Gigi would want to run and play. She came fitter, sleeker, and a happy dog. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Yajaira was an excellent pet sitter! She kept our dog active with walks and sent frequent updates/pictures during our puppy’s stay with her. She responded right away every time we contacted her. I would absolutely recommend her services! Thanks again Yajaira.”

Sherry took great care of our elderly dog while we were away this past week. She took the time to get to know our dog and help her feel comfortable. She sent us photos, videos, and updates that helped us feel reassured that our dog was having a great time. We would definitely recommend Sherry!
I'd highly recommend Kimberly and Victor as they were awesome w/ my stubborn Frenchie, Casper! I got daily updates w/ photos and videos which was great. They were super patient with him and went above and beyond by adjusting their routines to make him feel comfortable. Casper came home happy!!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
