“Ashley & Mauricio - a wonderful kick save, after another boarder's dog got very sick and had to go to the hospital - day before boarding our dog. A great experience. Our dog came home all smiles - having had a great time playing with Ashley and her gentleman fur baby, Bingo. Highly recommend!”
“Daniela was great with my pup! She asked great questions that made me feel confident that he would be safe and comfortable with her. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Judy was so kind, detail oriented, and trustworthy with my senior chihuahua. I left Milly with Judy for the day while I attended a conference. Judy provided routine photos and updates. I could tell Milly was clearly well taken care of when I picked her up - no anxiety”
“When one of our dog's health declined, we had to make a last minute booking for someone to watch her for a couple hours during an appointment. Jolysa was fantastic, quickly agreeing to help. She made our girl comfortable and happy as could be. We returned to pick up a relaxed, happy girl.”
“Lindsay gave my dog a great time. My dog has a ton of energy and Lindsay's backyard allowed my dog to run around and burn some of that energy off. Communication was very smooth and I enjoyed the pictures and videos! Thanks Lindsay!”
About: Dogs have always been much more than pets to me they’re genuinely one of my biggest interests. Along with caring for my own dog, I have professional experience working at a dog boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, routines, and energy levels. I’m especially interested in canine wellness, enrichment, and nutrition. With my own dog, I enjoy making homemade treats, preparing enrichment activities, and finding creative ways to keep him happy, active, and engaged. I bring that same level of attention to the dogs I care for. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or staying with them, I want their time with me to actually add something positive to their day not just meet the bare minimum. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to make plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine for walks, feeding, playtime, and check ins. I can also discuss specific times and availability depending on what you and your pet need. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, especially in your own home. I’ll always follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, boundaries, or routines. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Liza made sure Beau was so cared for! She kept him entertained throughout the day and active. He felt so comfortable with her and she was wonderful to communicate with! I felt truly at ease leaving our pup with her.”
“When I told our little dog that we were going to visiti Tina & Jon, she couldn't stop jumping for joy! We once took our dog to doggie daycare. They said, she just stayed with the "human" in the room. Playing with Tina & Jon's 2 little dogs has helped ours enjoy playing with other 4 legged animals with glee : )”
“Josie had such a lovely day with Clinton, his dog, and his son! She got lots of cuddles, time to roam around the fenced backyard, and plenty of window watching, three of her favorite things. Clinton communicated well and sent lots of great photos. I’ll definitely be bringing her back!”
“Lina is amazing! She took such good care of George, understood his needs, shared updates throughout the day! George came home happy, calm and stress-free. We’re so glad to have found Lina and can’t wait for George to have his next daycare with her soon. Would highly recommend Lina’s services.”
“Barb provided fantastic care for my 2 needy pups. In addition, she was extremely communicative and flexible as I had to switch things up on her last minute. We'll definitely be repeat customers!”
“Leidy and her husband Johanni are amazing!! Their home is so friendly and welcoming, and it’s clear that they treat the doggos they care for as family. So thrilled to have found them.”
About: Ive been a professional dog walker for 7 years in my neighborhood. Everywhere I go they ask where are the dogs?? Ive had many satisfied clients. I have slots for more dogs daily. Small dogs are my preference since I have in a small area for them to play in. Overnights are fine too. I have a main play room in my space for smaller dogs. Large dogs may need an overnight pen to rest in overnight for dogs over 30 pounds.
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.
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stamford
Clinton is fantastic!! I have a crazy schedule with EARLY morning drop offs and last minute requests for doggie daycare, and he is so accommodating. He has a great fenced in back yard where my dog can play with all of her new friends. I also get so many pics and videos throughout the day and it makes my day because I can see her having so much fun. Totally recommend!
Ashley & Mauricio - a wonderful kick save, after another boarder's dog got very sick and had to go to the hospital - day before boarding our dog. A great experience. Our dog came home all smiles - having had a great time playing with Ashley and her gentleman fur baby, Bingo. Highly recommend!
Goose had a nice visit with Allyson and her roommate. His stay gave us great peace of mind so we could visit with our friends until our hotel room was ready. We’re appreciated Allyson’s flexibility with our schedule. We will look her up again when we visit Stamford area!
Lindsay is a true animal lover and it shows through the impeccable care she provides on a daily basis. She has a sweet and calm demeanor and is very responsible and trustworthy. My pup is excited to see her and runs to her door on every occasion. I would highly recommend Lindsay for daycare, boarding or any pet-related needs.
We had a great daycare experience with Judy as a first step toward overnight stays. She was very responsive and communicative, provided updates throughout the day, and really took the time to get to know Penny’s quirky personality and help her feel safe and comfortable. We appreciated how attentive she was to Penny’s individual needs and look forward to having her stay with Judy again soon! :)
Daniela is so great. She got along with Bammie on the first day. She sent frequent updates of our pup enjoying his stay. She is also very flexible with our schedule. We had a church event that finished a little late and she was still able to accomodate. 100% recommend and will schedule her with Bammie again.
Stephanie is a fantastic pet sitter. She took the time to meet Coffee beforehand, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure she understood her routine. During our time away she kept us updated, and we came home to a happy, calm dog. Excellent service—would definitely book again.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Stamford commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 .
