“Lovely experience leaving my foster pitbull with Yvette for a weekend. Right away I noted her nice calm demeanor. Maggie is a very nervous dog, but she responded well to Yvette on first meeting, so I felt good about that. Yvette also has all the needed supplies, lots of toys and a crate, which was nice because Maggie likes to have a place to feel safe when she’s nervous. I would feel very comfortable leaving Maggie with Yvette again. :)”

“We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!”

“This was our fourth time booking Mary Ann to care for our elderly pup and once again, she delivered in spades! Over the years, our dog has boarded at various kennels and veterinary offices, but none those experiences with trained professionals could hold a candle to the services Mary Ann provides. I fear we have become too spoiled and now we will never be satisfied with anyone else ever again! Mary Ann is kind, professional, clean, and extremely skilled with pet care. She is the very best and we look forward to using her services again!”

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.”

In addition, we reached out midway through their stay and she responded immediately- this gave us peace of mind as well. Thank you!”

He was recovering from an injury and Kaylyn made sure that he took his medication regularly, made sure he was comfortable and happy, and kept us up to date regularly. She is incredibly communicative, kind, and responsible. We could tell that Tor was well taken care of and that Kaylyn really cares about the pets she boards!

“We’re SO happy we found Ashley! We needed someone last minute to watch our Yorkie, Maverick, while we were on vacation, and man, we really lucked out. From the start, she made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her and sent us tons of pictures and updates while we were away. Each one melting our hearts more than the last. She took such amazing care of Maverick and really made him part of the family. Her son and Maverick became the best little buddies, which was honestly so sweet to see. It made us so happy knowing he was having fun, getting lots of love, and feeling right at home while we were gone. We came home to a VERY happy pup, and we couldn’t be more thankful. We will absolutely have Ashley watch Maverick next time and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take great care of their fur babies! ❤️🐾”

About: l've always loved animals and have several years of experience caring for dogs, including my own French Bulldog. I've cared for dogs of different breeds, ages, and personalities, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a little extra patience, l'Il make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Friends, family, and people I know trust me with their dogs because I care for every pet the same way I'd want someone to care for my own, with kindness, patience, and lots of love. I'Il always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away ❤️ I’m a full-time college student, and most of my classes are online, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas. Dogs receive regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day.

About: Full time work from home professional looking to fill the gap in my heart from losing my baby. I lost my French bulldog at the age of 4 to IVDD, and can’t bring myself to “replace” him. I’m hoping that I can share the love I have for animals with your fur baby and fill some of my time with the joy they bring me. I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 13 years- dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens are all within my scope of experience. I have experience training young pets basic skills like sit, heel, shake, lay down, etc. I have also cared for special needs dogs, and have an affinity senior pets as well. If you’re looking for someone to love your pet like their own, you’ve come to the right person! As a work from home employee, I am glad to facilitate doggy daycare or overnight stays at my house. ~1,200sqft with plenty of space for playtime, non-smoking home. My neighborhood is very walkable, with a trail nearby if your fur baby needs a little bit more exercise. Drop ins and walks I can do after I get off at 5pm. I care for any pet with the level of detail many do not. I am very in tune with animals under my care, and have identified physical issues before they started showing symptoms. Your pet is now my family to, and I will do anything to keep them safe, comfortable, and loved.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Riverton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Riverton is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $30 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 646 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Riverton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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.

95% of sitters in Riverton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Riverton 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 Riverton.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Riverton. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Riverton 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
