“Lindsay was so great with my anxious pup. She was very responsive and sent me lots of updates. She made my dog feel at home right away, I wasn’t worried about him for one second! And her dogs are so cute and friendly - my dog had so much fun playing with them! Will definitely use her again.”
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. I’m patient with puppies, respectful of older dogs’ needs, and always happy to follow your instructions. I also love sharing photo and video updates, so you can feel connected to your pet while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I can plan my day around visits, walks, and quality time with your pet. I believe pets deserve attention, consistency, and not just a quick check-in. I always make sure to give them the time and care they need. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I provide a clean, welcoming, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention and supervision. Since I have a dog of my own, I’m mindful of introducing pets carefully and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, and routines. I’ll also share regular photos and updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while your pet is with me.
“Kevin and Ana took wonderful care of our dog over the holidays! This was the longest we have left our pup, and we knew he was in great hands. They sent daily updates and were flexible with our changing plans. Will definitely board with them again!”
“Isabella was a delight. I know Molly was well cared for. I received regular updates with photos and prompt responses. She is extremely accommodating and I felt at ease leaving my sweet dog under her care.”
“Emma took great care of my dog Buddy! She kept us updating by sending pictures and messages to check in! She was great at responding and looks like Buddy had a great time. Would definitely book again!”
“We are so grateful that Tracy was able to take care of Hank with a last minute boarding request. Ahead of Hank’s stay with her, we had a meet and greet, and Tracy welcomed us and Hank into her home and made sure Hank felt comfortable, letting him explore freely. We immediately knew he was going to have a great time with her. When we dropped Hank off, he got along right away with Tracy and her husband. They have a very nice and welcoming home, and Hank seemed comfortable from the start. He ate all of his food, was very active, and seemed completely at ease. Tracy was also very communicative throughout his stay and sent us pictures and updates on how Hank’s day was going, which we really appreciated. She was also very flexible with our pickup time. We had a great experience and would love to have her watch Hank again! I’m sure Hank would love that as well!”
“First time ever using a pet sitter, Was very pleased w/the care our 7 month old “big” high energy pup received. Lots of photos/videos were shared and response was quick. Friendly environment!”

“Moose and Alaska got long well while we were out of town and Moose came home happy and tired. That spent lots of time playing in the yard. Thank you, Natalia, for being available over thanksgiving and taking care of Moose!”
“Rusa and her family were so wonderful to our doggy. Our dog has had anxiety with previous boarders but she became so comfortable with Rusa and her family very quickly. Rusa also gave daily updates with photos, even cleaned our doggy’s eyes, and put booties on her paws when it snowed to protect her from the salt in streets. She was very communicative and trustworthy. Highly recommend.”
“Diane is an exceptionally caring and thoughtful sitter. She took such great care of Stella during the time we were away. From the moment we dropped her off Diane made sure Stella was settled into her place nicely, and was in constant communication sending us photos and updates. I could not recommended her enough! 10/10”
“There aren’t enough words to state my gratitude to Valeria for watching my Luna Bear. She is the perfect sitter. I had a last min work trip and she came through for me. She was so attentive to Luna and sent pics, videos, did FaceTime and my Luna looked like she didn’t want to come home lol. She is my go to if I ever have to travel or need Luna to be watched. I will be booking with her again very soon. So grateful to have found her ☺️”
“Angie was great. She understands cat well. We left our kitten to her place, she took care of her and we didn’t have to worry about her. She was also flexible with the timings which I really appreciate as we were running late from our trip. She shared with us pictures of our cat and we felt relieved.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have taken care of many pets throughout my life. I love taking dogs out for long walks, I am patient and reliable, with older pets and can care for energetic puppies. I am currently a graduate student at Villanova working part-time. I only have classes once a week right now and my part-time has not started yet. I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pet(s)! When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, respect, and consistency. I always follow the pet’s routine exactly as instructed — from feeding and walk times to special medications. I treat every home with care and cleanliness, making sure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I give frequent updates with photos so owners feel reassured, and I’m happy to communicate through text or calls depending on your preference. Whether it’s locking up securely, cleaning up messes, or ensuring a fun experience for your pet, I make sure your pet — and your home — is in great hands while you're away.
“Kiara has a lovely home with a backyard which is a huge plus in my eyes. My dog gets nervous/shy when going to new places and she was really great with him. I definitely plan to return and highly recommend her!”
About: I have been dedicated to caring for animals since childhood! I pursued my passion through the agriscience program in high school, taking UConn classes in Animal Behavior & Training, Companion Animals, and more to further my knowledge. With expertise in animal first aid, grooming, care, and training, I honed my skills. Throughout those years I also worked at Further Lands Farm, and consistently assisted on my family farms in Poland during visits. I am currently pursuing my Associates Degree at NCC to become a certified Veterinary Technician. My genuine love for all creatures is reflected in my extensive experience, which ranges from caring for mice to deaf dogs to sick horses! As of summer 2024 I offer: walks, drop-ins, sitting, runs, hikes & training. I am currently in class Monday afternoons, Tuesdays and Thursdays. I do not have any other jobs, I’m a very active person and I manage my time very well. My mom is always available to help as well. I will always be taking necessary precautions for your pets and taking into account their individual personalities and needs every time! Their safety is my upmost priority.
“Diana is friendly, caring, responsible and she is a great dog sitter. She sent photos and videos everyday and went above and beyond to take care of my shiba inu. In addition, her dog Wendy was a wonderdul playmate for my shiba. She provided a safe, clean and fun environment for the care of my dog.”
“Isael was so awesome! He was extremely calm with our rambunctious aussiedoodle, took her on runs daily, and sent so many pictures. She came home happy and exhausted. He was also super flexible with timing, which was very appreciated.”

Thank you so much for taking care of Loki while I was away. I know he was in good hands and will definitely be coming back! I highly recommend Atilio and Silvio. They take care of your pets like they are their own. Plenty of walks and photos and Loki seemed very comfortable in their home.
Frederic and Daniela were fantastic! We got multiple pictures a day letting us know how the pups were doing, and they were happy every time! They were so caring, catching onto their personalities with their likes/dislikes and telling us stories through their day of what they were up to. Will definitely be knocking on Frederic's door again!
As usual, 5 stars for Judy! She takes such great care of our little Penny Blossom and we have complete peace of mind when we leave Penny in her care. She even went above and beyond and administered topical eye medication daily. We're so happy to have found Judy and highly recommend her!
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.

There are 6,114 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stamford. About 89% 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 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.
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.
