“Nandita took care of my Billie for four days this past week. She’s conscientious, caring, and she connected with Billie right away. I got twice daily videos, and Billie had a great time. I would definitely recommend Nandita to anyone, who has a sweet and energetic pup, like my Billie.”
“Kevin did such a great job taking care of our Ruby girl, sending daily pics and updates that made us feel at ease. He was super attentive in listening to us about Ruby’s quirks and (craziness) and made her feel comfortable under his care. Ruby was so happy and looked like she had a great time with Kevin! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Wow, Karine and Ryan were such attentive caregivers for our small pup, Mikoh. We felt totally at ease leaving him with them for a week while we traveled outside the country. Karine was meticulous in caring for Mikoh, and sent multiple updates daily informing me of Mikoh's play times, eating habits, and overall wellbeing. It was also nice knowing that Mikoh was having some nice social time with other pups while we were away. I would wholeheartedly recommend their care for your pup, and look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you!!”
“My golden retrievers had a great time at Radonstina’s house. She was a great communicator and sent lots of pictures. I could tell right away that our dogs were enjoying their stay.”
About: Hi there, I’m an experienced dog owner and sitter with plenty of indoor and outdoor space for four legged friends of all sizes. I have a large fenced in backyard, and love to go for hikes and runs in the great outdoors. Or for a quiet walk in the neighborhood, if that’s what your dog prefers. Either way, I’ll make sure to keep your pup happy, safe and well cared for 😊 I’m available to board your dog Thursdays through Sundays. I work from home with a very flexible schedule and always go for at least one long (min 1 hr) walk and a couple of shorter ones on workday, plus plenty of time for play. My home office has a large and very comfy couch so that we all, dogs and office worker, can keep each other company. On weekends I tend to spend a lot of time outdoors, of course taking your dog’s needs into consideration. I have a large, dog friendly house and a wonderful fenced in backyard. My own dog, a very social and energetic Havanese, will happily share her couches and lead the way on walks and runs. No small kids in the house, I have three kids in their early 20s who come and go during weekends and school breaks. One of them is a vet technician, the other two just generally great with dogs.
“We are a repeat customer of Carrigan's. Selena always seems to have a good time when she stays over. She's happy, energetic and doesn't really make the mad dash for the car that she sometimes does when she stays with other sitters. I would definitely have her stay with Carrigan again.”
About: I’ve grown up around pets and have helped take care of relatives dogs over the years. I have a labradoodle of my own. And I’m looking forward to helping you care for your pet as well! My dog, Milo and I look forward to having another dog joining us for a day of play! We have a nice backyard for running! I have a fenced yard. I have one dog, Milo. He is a four year old labradoodle who loves to run, play and car rides.
“I am very happy with Atilio & Silvia's family and how they care for and about my dogs. They are careful with their feeding and prescriptions - and have fun with the dogs. I got pictures and feedback daily and my dogs always looks very relaxed. I will defininately use them whenever I travel, with confidence and pleasure! Many thanks for your open hearts and caring home!”
“Anastasiia was the best! Took great care of Mars and even got him out on some hikes. She is very communicative and thoughtful with our guy. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again.”
About: I’m the type of sitter who pays attention to the little things — routines, favorite toys, energy levels, and comfort needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I adapt to what each pet needs. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, loved, and understood, and that’s the environment I strive to provide. Plus, you can expect plenty of updates and photos! Pets fit easily into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get the attention, exercise, care, and consistency they need — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just company and cuddles. I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy and comfortable. I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and loving environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and a comfortable space to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I respect their pet’s routine, environment, and instructions to help keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, dietary needs, and comfort, and I make sure owners receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Denise watched my dog Paddy for over a week while he was recovering from Lyme’s. She was very friendly, kind and assuring during this period. She also communicated with me daily and sent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend.”
“Karen is the absolute best. She has been extremely flexible, attentive and beyond sweet with my dog, Coco. If you are looking for someone that is very responsible and trustworthy, then Karen is your person. I highly recommend Karen to anyone in need of pet-sitting services!”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own. I work from home, so I’m available around the clock for taking care of your pets. I live in the Fairfield County area, so I’m available to help you out with your pets! I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.
“Laura was Fantastic! She provided many updates on our pup Vader and took him on a lot of walks. She was communicative and easy to access. Laura will be the first person we reach out to going forward.”
“First time boarding with Randi and it was an incredibly smooth experience. Randi is extremely flexible and was a life saver for when we were away on a multi city driving trip. We were watching the weather in case we needed to abandon our plans and come back home mid trip. Randi was extremely flexible and accommodating and I am so grateful for that. Our dog is a picky eater and is also on some tricky meds…and Randi kept in touch with regular updates. She persevered with attempts to get her to eat both food and meds, until our dog did finally start to eat! Our dog came home happy and healthy! We will definitely board with Randi again!”
“Stephanie was such a fabulous pet sitter for our 2 black labs. We felt so at ease while we were away knowing our dogs were in very capable and caring hands. We will definitely be using Stephanie again:)”
“We left Huey for an overnight stay. Rafaelina took the time to answer all our questions and explained how she manages multiple dogs. We would be happy to rebook in the future for longer vacations.”

We were blown away by Katherine’s care of our girls! She took such good care of them and we felt very at peace leaving our cat and dog with her. She sent pictures 3 times a day with a little update and was super responsive the entire time. She asked all the right questions and if we lived in town we would definitely use her as our go to sitter! If you’re nervous about hiring a pet sitter, hire Katherine!
Barbara was great with our 2 year old staffy mix! We were worried because she is very scared around new people and we had a small issue the first night, but after a couple of days Presley was having a blast with Barbara's dog and the other dog she was watching! It was great that Barbara was willing to take on the challenge and be very patient with her. She also sent pictures and updates throughout her stay ☺️
I was out of town for a weekend and needed someone for dog boarding, so of course I went to Wendy! She was great with my dog and followed the care instructions I gave her. She provided updates throughout the day, was flexible with drop off/pick up time, and made things easy for me by dropping off my dog at my home. Wendy is great!
Melissa and Christian were fantastic with our two girls. Each day we received clever updates on what they were up to, how they were doing and what they have done. They were taken on multiple walks each day and were very comfortable with them. Will definitely be booking again with them!
Steph did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She was very communicative and provided updates daily along with the cutest photos. She really cares about the dogs she takes care of. Definitely one of the top sitters we’ve found on Rover! We would happily book again and highly recommend her! I can tell our pup was in great hands.
Emma took amazing care of our 2.5 year old lab for one week while we went away on vacation. She took great care of our dog giving her plenty of exercise and care. She shared videos and photos on a regular basis which we were grateful for. Our dog came home safe and sound. We would definitely ask Emma to take care of our dog again!
Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!

Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Roxbury is $69 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $89 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 of October 2026, there are 5,013 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Roxbury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Roxbury 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 Roxbury home-away-from-home, 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 Roxbury.
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 Roxbury 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 , 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 .
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.
