“Annette was amazing with our puppy! I was really nervous to leave her but she made me feel super comfortable and the puppy had a great time. I’m extremely happy with how Annette interacted with our puppy and the care she gave her. Meeka will definitely be visiting her again.”

“Kathryn took such good care of Marley! She sent me updates every day and pictures! So happy to have found such a reliable, flexible, and easy to communicate with sitter for our fur baby!”

“Katie was wonderful! We booked Katie after having concerns with the last sitter following instructions. Katie spoke with us on the phone and was able to assure us she could meet all of Bugsy’s needs. Bugsy is an older dog, so she can be a handful sometimes. But she seemed so well taken care of with Katie. Katie sent photos and updates of Bugsy. She worked with our schedule for drop off and pick up. Overall Bugsy came back happy and in good spirits. I felt great picking her up and feel confident she was well taken care of during our trip.”

“Karina did an excellent job looking after my dog while I was away for the weekend. This was my first time having someone watch him, and her regular updates and photos kept me from worrying. Her friendly dog was an added bonus, and it was clear from the moment I picked up Teddy that he had been well-loved and cared for the whole time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Karina again for future trips.”

“First thing- Meghan was great! Finn states with her fior 4 nights and I couldn’t have asked for more out of a sitter. She communicated well with us during his stay and is overall a very kind, responsible sitter. I will (and I’m sure Finn) be looking forward to booking with her in the future!”
“I can’t say enough about how well Sadie was cared for Kristina is certainly a dog-person. She read all the signs that Sadie was giving her to play, train go for a walk and chill. She followed all our directions and cared for Sadie as if she was her own dog. We received a lot of communication in the form of photos and videos. I would highly and without hesitation recommend Kristina to care for your dog too.”

“Catherine was wonderful with Josie, she attended to every one of her needs and treated her like the true diva that she is! She gave her her drops, her eye drops three times a day on schedule, sent me pictures and videos. I was hoping Josie would a still wanna come home with me and not stay with Catherine.!!!Sue w.”

“You will be hard pressed to find a better person than Katharine to take care of your fur child! We are so thrilled that we found her thru Rover. She could not be more kind and loving to my Katie. She takes her on wonderful walks, sending us great photos and frequent updates. I have complete peace of mind when leaving Katie with Katharine and know she’s in great hands. Katie thoroughly enjoys her visits with Katharine. Thank you Katharine! 🦮”

“Kyle was fantastic! He was very thorough and made a point to make sure our dog was gentle enough to be with other doggies together in a home. We got updates and pics of our chocolate brown lab pup a few times while we were away. He always made positive remarks on how he was doing. We would absolutely use Kyle again! I highly recommend!”

“Tatiana took great care of our Ricky boy for 4 days. She was attentive to detail, sent lots of photos and treated him like her own. Ricky is usually slow to warm up to people, but took a liking to her immediately. He also loved the fully fenced yard to run around and play! We will definitely be booking again.”

“Loretta was beyond amazing, we had a previous sitter that did not want to continue to watch Luna and she stepped in and took her in while we were out of state. She returned our 15 year old pup to us with what seems 5 years less, she was happy, bathed and even a little thinner! She was responsive, kind, sent us pictures and so extremely communicative in a good way. We will forever take our dogs to Loretta’s house for any weekend or trip away! Thanks Loretta Luna loves you! Xoxo”

“Robin took great care of our dog. She sent updates throughout the day and when we picked him up, I could tell he was very relaxed and happy and enjoyed his time with her and her family. We will definitely use her again for our dog!”

“Shadow has a wonderful time! We picked him up and he was so happy and excited, giving Karen so much love on the way out, we will definitely use her again on future trips to the area. shadow had his own puppy palace and got walks and so much play time. Karen asked questions and fed shadow the way we would at home, thank you for taking care of our puppy as if he were your own! We appreciate it!”

“Laura did a great job of communicating throughout my dog’s stay and was very understanding when circumstances changed. Great experience overall and I could tell my dog was well cared for!”


“Zara and her husband were wonderful throughout the entire experience of caring for our dog while we we're away. Bear loved being around their dogs and was exhausted from playing and running when we returned home. I would definitely recommend Zara for your needs.”

Another excellent booking with Tierna. She is amazing with my elderly, crazy, dog-reactive dogs. Also, I can tell that she loves them and appreciates their specialness, which is so nice and comforting when I'm missing them. Her photos and updates are wonderful. She's just excellent. I feel so so good leaving them with her. Thank you so much, Tierna!
TLDR: Definitely book Tierna to watch your dog(s). She is EXCELLENT. I have two old, yappy, other dog-hating maltese mixes. I've never left them before. Tierna made sure they were her only client for my 11 day trip. Also, she doesn't have her own dog which is KEY and hard to find. She was loving, funny, communicative, and made me feel like my dogs were valued and loved and taken care of. Her updates were hilarious and touching. My dogs felt safe and WE felt safe on their behalf. She's wonderful. I can't say enough good things and I would use her again in a heartbeat.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Southbury on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,087 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Southbury. About 90% of Southbury 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
