About: I’ve always had pets growing up. Over the past 20 years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, turtles, snakes, and hamsters. I love animals more than most humans. My sister is also a vet which is super handy to have. I currently work from home so I can be present and then I have down time I can play and tend to my furry house guest. I have a room for my dogs with a very bring crate, beds and toys. When I have furry guests I can always alternate my dogs in the room or the furry guest into that room. They could also wonder around the apartment as well. My building complex also has a dog park which is nice to run around and play.
About: I’ve trained multiple dogs for obedience & hunting, which I’ve dedicated several months to do for each pup. I have a 10 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever that’s very well trained and well behaved. I work from home, so I’m here all day unless I go out for something at the store or gym. If gone, I always let the dog roam free and keep the tv on for him. Naturally I play with the pup several times a day. My office is connected to the backyard, so I can throw the ball or play often. I have no issues letting the dog outside whenever they’d like.
“Will once again took the best care of Romeo and we couldn’t be happier! Our little guy is always in the best hands and Will truly had the best connection with dogs, giving them the love and attention they need while in his care!”
“Michelle was very friendly and easy to reach. I got back a happy dog that got along well with Michelle and her family. It felt like I was leaving my dog to a friend’s house.”
“Liza was wonderful. We need a last minute booking for a holiday and she accommodated us very easily. Our Goldendoodle, Biscuit, was very well cared for. He doesn’t always do well away from us and can have some separation anxiety. He was at ease and enjoyed himself. We will definitely rebook with her.”
About: I grew up with a yellow lab that I cared for throughout my childhood. I now have 2 amazing rescue labs Ellie and Bobby that get along really well with other dogs. I also volunteer with Companion Pet Rescue. I am flexible with my schedule on the weekends and will try my best to accommodate your needs. Just let me know what services you are looking for and I will confirm my availability. I have a fenced in yard which my dogs love to play in. I also take them for walks, runs, or hikes! My home is very clean and quiet. Making it a safe space for your pets that you can feel comfortable leaving them.
About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. Which led me too adopt two beautiful dogs. An Irish doodle and a mini aussie. They are my everything. I have dog sitted for many dogs of different sizes and breeds. Will take care of them as if they were my babies :) I am available everyday after 2 in the afternoon and if you want me too dog sit in the morning you can let me know ahead of time and I will try to make it possible. There are some days where I am off and it would be a pleasure to babysit your babies :) I have a routine for my dogs which include three hours of playtime distrubuted throughout the day and I try to take them to the dog park twice a weeks. They eat twice a day home cooked meals and I leave them to eat their dry foods during the afternoon. If you have a routine that you would like me to follow please let me know and how you would like me to feed your dogs :)
About: My love for my own pets inspired me to continue working with animals during college! With a major in psychology and a goal of working with therapy animals in the future, I love learning and growing as much as I can. I have multiple years of professional experience in animal shelters, and a therapy animal program! I'm hoping to spend more time gaining experience working with animals. Not only is it enjoyable to hangout with furry friends, but it will be beneficial to my future career working in animal assisted therapy! I recognize that every animal is different with their own little personality. Hearing from owners about their recommendations, and getting to know the animal has never failed!
“Zuly and her family took wonderful care of my poodle, Babette. She is a great communicator, and understands the needs of dogs from years of experience. Her home was neat, immaculate, and felt very welcoming. I look forward to using her services in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 10. I’ve always treated pets like family and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving dogs plenty of attention and patience. I’m also comfortable caring for energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I have flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to dedicate time throughout the day to walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m comfortable building my day around a pet’s individual routine and making sure they don’t feel rushed or overlooked. Whether that means a morning walk, midday check-in, some playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m able to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and welcome. I keep a clean and calm environment, follow their normal feeding and bathroom routines, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I also take time to learn each pet’s personality and respect their individual comfort level. Whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer to relax and stay close to me, I want them to feel like they’re in a home where they’re genuinely cared for.
“We had a wonderful experience using Ingrid’s doggy day care services for the first time. We started with a meet and greet and Ingrid is helping Shadow ease into the new space and other dog intros in a digestible fashion. She is quick to respond, has great communication, very professional and experienced, with attentiveness towards each dog’s unique needs. It’s a relief to know my pup is in safe, caring hands getting the love, attention, play and exercise he needs. We just moved to the area and are looking forward to booking with Ingrid regularly during my work days. Thank you, Ingrid!”
“Julia was absolutely amazing with my dog! She was so kind, caring, and attentive, and I could tell right away that my dog was comfortable with her. She kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It is clear that Julia genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
“Brianna was fantastic! Accommodated a very last minute request, was super sweet with our pups (especially our skittish one), and when we picked them up, they were obviously well taken care of and loved on! We will definitely used her again!”
“Great baby sitter! Michelle and her family did a great job at taking care of my little yorkie and I feel comfortable having someone to leave my sweet boy with. Highly recommend and I use her for all my baby sitting needs!”
About: I've had pets since a young age from lizards, cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, turtles, guinea pigs and birds. I have a small dog of my own so I know I can give your pets lots the love and attention too whether they have fur, scales, or feathers! I work from home so all pets get get a lot of attention during the day. For dogs staying in my home, they get 3 walks a day in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I work from home so all pets get a lot of attention during the day. I love to spend my time after work going on walks and would love a buddy(s) to come with me! I am available from dog walking or in home visits after 5:15pm during the week and anytime on weekends. I think the best way to care for a pet is do exactly what they're comfortable with. I intend to have very open communication with pet parents to understand the likes, dislikes and behaviors of their fur-babies to make sure that they feel safe and comfortable. I do have a dog of my own so I also want to make sure all your pets get along with my Jax, who loves other animals.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Prospect is $32 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 per day.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Prospect commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

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.
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 .
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.
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 .
