“Great updates every day with pictures. Only thing I can complain about is now we need to get a second dog seeing how much fun Roxy had with Griggs....lol. Will be using Isabel in the future for sure.”

“Ashley was great! She was quick to respond to our request for her services. Our dog Tessa stayed with her for 4 nights and seemed very content there. We received many updates with pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”

“Anely was very informative, professional in taking care of our Siberian Husky, Orka. She sent us videos, photos, every time she took our pet for a walk and more while he is resting. She let us know about all the details, how much food our pet had, how much he slept.. I took my dog for a walk before leaving him with Anely. As soon as I dropped him off, he sat next to Anely on the porch and starting gazing the street. That there told me that Orka trusted Anely from the first minute. Also I could easily tell Anely was enjoying our pet's stay the whole time. On top of the detailed info she provided during the stay, these two things were very important for me. I strongly recommend, and will not hesitate to contact her next time we need someone to take care of our dog. Thank you!!”

“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!”

“Zachary was great! He sent me photos every day showing what a great time Maggie was having. I will absolutely have him take care of my Maggie again in the future.”

“Nick was perfect. He was able to accommodate us on a last minute cancellation. My family was traveling from NY to RI for the Metallica show at Gillette. Our sitter cancelled last minute and Nick was there to assist. He was tremendous with our 95 lb mastiff puppy and we definitely recommend him for your sitting/boarding needs. Thank you Nick! We appreciate you!”

“Matthew once again took very excellent care of Bailey while I was away for the weekend. He was good with giving medications and sent me frequent updates and pictures. Most importantly, he loves having Bailey over and Bailey loves spending time there! I wouldn’t leave him with anyone else.”

“Elba is always so good with Riot, I trust he’s in good hands any time he’s at her home. She also sends plenty of videos, pictures, and updates and treats Riot as if he was her own family member.”

“Melissa is AWESOME! She's a great communicator, sends tons of pictures and clearly loves her job! I'm so grateful to have found her! My dog loves spending time with Melissa and always comes home happy!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”

“She took excellent care of our boy and he had a great time playing with the sweet Lucy. Courtney provided us with updates and pictures and was always easy to get a hold of.”

About: I've cared for all kinds of dogs from Malteses to Saint Bernards as well as cats. I've worked with up to four dogs at a time and 7 cats at a time. I've been dog-sitting since I was 13 years old. Specific dogs I've worked with are the Maltese, Rottweiler, Saint Bernard, Bulldog, Pit-bull, Terrier, Wheaten, mix, Golden Retriever, etc. I'm excited to work farther with a variety of dogs and cats I look forward in speaking with you. I'm currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available for boarding on weekends and visits during the morning and afternoon/night. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space to run around and play as well as I enjoy walking and running around with any animals.
“Megan was great! We came from out of town for an extended stay, and wanted to take a one day excursion without our dog Bentley. Even knowing it was likely to be a one-time dog-sitting opportunity - or at least very occasional - Megan was very responsive, arranged a meeting with her dog in advance, and when the day came, the two dogs and Megan all got along great! Bentley seemed happy to see us but reluctant to leave when we picked him up! And we got a lot of feedback and pictures during both days of his one-night stay. If the opportunity comes up again, we'll definitely turn to Megan again, too!”


“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”

About: Hi, I’m Marilyn! I have been caring for animals since I was 12 years old, starting with my neighbors' cats and expanding to dogs as I gained experience. Medication & Special Care Experience With years of pet ownership, I am very comfortable managing special health needs. I am experienced in administering: Oral Medications (I’m a pro at using pill pockets, cheese, or whatever trick your pet prefers!) Topical Treatments Ear Drops Meet My Pack: We are a pet-loving household! When you book with me, your pet will be sharing space with my sweet fur-family. My French Bulldog: He is an 8-year-old Frenchie who is incredibly laid-back and absolutely wonderful with kids and other animals. My Cat- Nemo is well-adjusted to a busy, animal-friendly home. Home Environment & Boarding Accommodations I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as they do in their own home. My house is fully equipped for secure, happy stays: Fenced-In Yard: Perfect for safe, supervised playtime and quick potty breaks. Finished Basement with Baby Gates: I have a spacious, finished basement that is perfect for giving pets their own dedicated zone. If your pet isn't fully comfortable around cats, I can easily keep them separated using baby gates. Crate-Friendly: If your dog prefers to sleep in a crate or is crated for safety when unsupervised, I am happy to utilize a crate according to your exact preferences. Whether your pet needs active playtime in the yard, quiet companionship or precise medication schedules, I am here to treat them like a member of my own family. I can't wait to meet your pup or kitty! As a stay-at-home mom and part-time kstudent, nurturing and safety are second nature to me. My classes only take up 2 days of my week, leaving me with wide-open availability to care for your pet the rest of the time. Because I am home so much, I can cater to all of their needs—from high-energy play sessions to specialized care routines. You can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in attentive, loving hands! My goal is to provide a "home away from home" that mirrors the safety and structure they have at your house. Home & Environment: Secure Yard: Large, fenced-in area for supervised outdoor time. Hydration: Constant access to filtered, fresh water. Socialization: My two young sons, our friendly 8-year-old Frenchie, our 1 year old rescue pup and cat make for a social environment, but we can easily accommodate dogs who need their own space. Crate Ready: I can utilize your pup’s crate for sleeping or breaks to maintain their existing training and comfort. My Promise: I am highly detail-oriented and will follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and behavior to the letter. Your pet’s safety and your trust are my primary concerns.
“Barbara was wonderful! My dog is 100 lbs of anxiety in a 20 pound bag and I have never left her with a stranger before. She has a lovely fluffy dog and a nice backyard space. You can trust her with even your most delicate flowers. She took good care of mine!”

“I left for vacation and had to leave my kitty, Riott, behind, and I’m so grateful I found Katarina. She was absolutely amazing with him and made him feel right at home. She gave him lots of love, paid close attention to his needs, and treated him so well. She also kept me updated every day with adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It felt so reassuring knowing Riott was with someone who genuinely cared about him and knew how to take care of him. I will definitely book with Katarina again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Putnam
Sadie thoroughly enjoyed her stay. In the past, I tried boarding at a kennel but it was too stressful for her. It took days for her to recover from the experience. That was not the case with her stay with Lindsay. She returned home just as happy as the day we dropped her off. It was such a relief and I couldn’t be more pleased.

There are 1,032 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Putnam. About 92% of Putnam sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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.
