“Great experience from beginning to end. It was our first time leaving Gigi with a sitter. Dew kept us updated and sent photos, which was a great comfort to us. Will definitely use her again.”
“We love, love, love Lily and her whole family, including Speedy. Our dog Flynn is so happy they’re running and playing and feeling like he’s at his home away from home. We can’t recommend Lily enough!”
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“I was caught in a bind as I was moving and my current place had to cancel due to the weather. This is my first time using Rover and I needed to find someone to watch my pup. River is a bit reserved and can be very nervous. Pam is a life saver. She sent pictures throughout her visit and I was completely at ease during a very stressful move. I will definitely recommend Pam and will reach out to her again whenever I need a sitter for my girl. Thanks a million. You are the best!!!”
“So pleased with our experience! This was our first time leaving our new puppy. Anner did a great job caring for her. He was responsive with communication and pics. Will definitely use him again.”
“Katie had the best, most nurturing and relaxing experience! When I picked Katie up I could tell she felt secure. Katie can have separation anxiety but she was handled perfectly (walks, pets, a nap). I received lots of pictures and texts so I was comfortable too.”
“Kathryn is probably the best Rover sitter we’ve had (and we’ve used some lovely sitters). Our dogs are anxious when they’re left, and Kathryn really helped them feel at ease - her fenced yard was perfect and they just seemed to trust her. I’d highly recommend booking your pet’s stay with her!”
“Andrea sent us great updates throughout an almost three week stay. August was well cared for and spoiled well while we were away. We will leave him with her again in the future if she is available!”
“Saori was such a great sitter for our pups (1 year old great pyrenees). She took them to the dog park in the morning for a couple of hours, helped continue our invisibile fence training, and sent us so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell how happy and comfortable our dogs were in her home and under her care. They came home so tired because they had so much fun with her and the other dogs!”
“Nicole is absolutely the best! Not only is she warm, welcoming, and very accommodating, her veterinary experience and obvious love of dogs assures us that Bluebelle is in the very best hands. Her daily updates and pictures keep us posted on the great time Blue is having with Nicole and her family in their very dog-friendly home and backyard. The best endorsement of all, though, is Blue's excitement and crazy tail-wagging when we mention Nicole's name! Five stars doesn't begin to say enough!!”
“Our dog had a great time with Farva! She has a wonderful fenced backyard so our dog could play with other dogs. She sent us updates throughout the stay, and was very kind and responsive.”
“Hi Rachael, I just wanted to say thank you so much for watching April. It meant the world to me to see the photos of the hikes and know she was in such good hands. It’s clear she had a wonderful time and was well loved while I was away. We’ll definitely be reaching out next time we need a sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Valerie was great as always. She treats Oliver like her own. He came back happy and tired. She was able to accommodate us when we needed to pick up Oliver a day later due to car trouble. All around, a great experience.”
“Fabulous experience, my 2 Bernese Mountain Dogs LOVED< LOVED< LOVED Kyle! They didn't really want to leave, either! Kyle is the quintessential laid back dog lover....will definitely hire him again!”
“Robin is a lovely person who took excellent care of our dog. She kept us updated on everything and I could tell our dog was comfortable and relaxed when we returned. We will definitely be booking with Robin again!”
“Rich was a wonderful host. He was available on a few days notice, flexible in drop off and pick up, sent lots of photos, and our shy dog clearly had a great time and was well taken care of. We’ll absolutely be back again. Thank you!”
“Christina is truly the best! When my trip was approaching and my original sitter canceled unexpectedly, she stepped in without hesitation and took care of my dog, Lucas, on very short notice, showing incredible understanding and flexibility. She kept me updated daily with pictures and videos, making me feel at ease even from afar. Christina treated Lucas like family, allowing him to sleep close to her and ensuring he was well cared for. Her kindness, dedication, and genuine love for animals make her absolutely amazing, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help!”
“Hazard took amazing care of my two cats. She sent daily photos and videos and even cute report cards. You can tell the cats were well cared for because they did not appear scared or anxious, she even had a whole room full of toys and scratches for them to feel at home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ridgefield
Thank you, Lily & family, for taking such good care of my Penny! Lily was communicative, sending texts and pics throughout the day. The best was the video I received each evening recapping her adventures. There was a mix of outdoor & indoor play, along with lots of snuggles. First time boarding any of my dogs, and I felt at ease throughout my vacation that she was well cared for.
We were going to Europe for 10 days and didn't want to leave our 5 year old black lab, Hazel, in a kennel. We found Tracy on Rover and decided she was right because she had a history owning labs. Tracy was wonderful! Her dog Lucy, also a lab, became fast friends and Hazel was very comfortable in her home. Nice large fenced in yard in quiet neighborhood. Her son Grayson also loved taking care of Hazel. We would highly recommend Tracy for any boarding needs, short term or longer term as was our case.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ridgefield on Rover is $44.28 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,691 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ridgefield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Ridgefield sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ridgefield landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ridgefield 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 Ridgefield.
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.
You and your Ridgefield 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.
