About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Spending time with animals is my happy place and nothing brings me more joy than caring for and playing with them. I have a great deal of experience taking care of many dogs of various breeds and sizes. I currently have the flexibility to fully dedicate myself to what I would call my dream job which is working with animals. I can go on long or short walks and have an enclosed dog park around my area. I have taken care of dogs with medical problems and have experience giving dogs medicine such as eye drops and pills. I am a quick learner when it comes to the specific conditions the owner has for their dog .
“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.”
“We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!”
“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.”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. Your sweet pet will be loved just like they would be at home. I have experience with all dog sizes and temperaments. Your pet will be the focus of my day under my care. I love to be active and outside but happy to adjust to whatever your pet prefers. Your pets will be cuddled, walked, played with, and have a fun stay in safe hands with me. They will be treated with love and care.
“Ivon was absolutely amazing. She sent me so many pictures while Ellie was with her and kept me updated on how she was doing the entire time. Ellie will definitely be coming back!”
“We are already looking forward to our next board with Ashley! She was so communicative, gracious and patient throughout the process and attentive and kind to the individual needs of our pup. He is pooped from his fur party and we are at peace knowing he was safe and positively engaged while we were away. Thank you Ashley, we will be back!”
About: Playing with them, taking them for walks and giving them lots of love is part of my experience. I love working with them and making them feel safe with me. Working with animals is my passion. I feel that they are part of my life, that they are essential, they are part of our families and they deserve to be loved and respected. I am responsible for their care and feeding. I like to take them for walks. It is very essential for them to give them love and affection. Playing with them is part of their environment.
“Andrea was WONDERFUL! Skye had such a lovely time at her home. It was our first time using her dog sitting in home service, I had an emergency and was unable to come pick her up, and Andrea accomodated a second day without hesitation. She truly gave me such peace of mind in an incredibly stressful situation— something that is very hard to find these days! 10/10 recommend using Andrea, her beautiful home and yard and stellar service!”
“Katherine was great! Start to finish. Very accommodating, She really put these first time boarders at ease, this continued throughout our trip with her sending daily updates & pics! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Frank is the best! Always willing to help. I own a yellow lab with food allergies and he takes medication every day. Frank took good care of my dog with lots of attention and love!”
“Irene was so sweet with our Oliver! She was very communicative and accommodating with our 4 month old pup! Thank you again for your help this week and we look forward to booking with you in the future!!”
“Stephanie was a great sitter for my nervous dog. By the end the boarding my dog was sitting on her lap. She gave many updates and was very happy to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend and plan to use her again”
“Kevin and Ana are wonderful! We had our dog, Buddy, stay with them for in home boarding and he had a fantastic time playing with their dogs. Kevin provided frequent updates with photos and videos. Our dog had a minor injury right before our trip and required daily medication and a little extra TLC. We were so grateful for the great care he received during his stay.”
About: I've had a dog in my home since I can remember. Friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs while conducting in home visits. I have attended dog training classes in the past, and I have worked with and seen the growth of a German Shepherd puppy become a trained adult. I am a teacher in the nearby area, and I am currently off in the summer. I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pups. I am available weekdays and some weekends. I love dogs and being outside! I live in apartment complex that is very pet friendly with an outside courtyard that many use for dog walks. I can easily walk, hydrate, feed your dogs, and anything else you may need.
“Arly was a wonderful sitter for our anxious small dog. She kept us posted throughout her stay which really eased our minds while we were away. It was clear our dog was having a great time with lots of toys. She even clipped our dog’s nails for us. Would definitely recommend Arly as a sitter for your pet!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs. I enjoy playing with them and taking care of them, I’ve had a couple of dogs growing up and have been dog sitting for the past two years for friends and friends of friends. I currently work from home. My schedule allows me to go on walks often with dogs and to spend as much time as I want with them giving them the attention they need. ‼️‼️For housesitting requests I do bring my dog, she’s very calm and friendly, so please let me know if that’s okay and we can have the dogs meet. I live in an apartment building close by many parks that I take my own dog for walks. My puppy is very friendly towards other dogs and will be happy to keep them company.
“Lindsay was such an amazing sitter! We were so happy we found her. Our dog had the best night. Lindsay kept us up to date by sending us multiple pictures and videos. Our dog had so much fun bonding with Lindsay’s adorable puppies. I highly recommend Lindsay - can’t say enough great things about her!”

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.
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!
Clinton was such a lovely host to Beau. I don’t think Beau will be happy back with us.🤦🏻♀️ From plating his food - to getting his allergy medicine that we forgot to pack. jumping in when flights got cancelled, keeping him another night and providing his favourite fruits and veg for toppers and snacks throughout the day. A big gracias, merci and than you Clinton we will be back 🩵🤍🩷🙏🏼
Kevin was enthusiastic & held the reins well, in acting as a surrogate for me, in the care of my lil Pup, who I adore! When I picked him up from his overnight stay… he returned happy, healthy & safe & sound! I also loved the pics he sent me. If needed again in the future, Kevin would be my “go to” caretaker for my Pup!
Está muy bien, solo haría unos pequeños cambios para que suene más natural en inglés: She was amazing! My dog loved her so much that when I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which showed me that she felt safe and comfortable. Yury was also super sweet and always sent me videos and pictures. I will DEFINITELY book with her again! Thank you, Yury — we are so grateful! También podrías hacerlo un poco más cálido: She was amazing! My dog absolutely loved her. When I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which told me she felt safe, happy, and comfortable. Yury was incredibly sweet and kept me updated with videos and pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you Yury, we are so grateful for the wonderful care you gave our dog! ❤️
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!

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 for Pet Boarding in Stamford on Rover is $55.5 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 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 6,104 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stamford. About 90% of Stamford 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.
