“Dawn does a fantastic job with the dogs. Zoe is a rescue dog and she had some troubles in the past getting along with other dogs. Dawn spent some time with Zoe, introducing her to her dogs individually until Zoe felt comfortable. Zoe ended up having a wonderful time and enjoys playing with other dogs. Such a relief! Dawn also takes time to take pictures and sends them to me with a note giving an update to how Zoe's doing. I will continue to bring Zoe to Dawn's.”

“If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would! My dogs are very anxious pups and they are Velcro dogs, but I was able to leave them and walk away without them following or whining. They felt so safe and loved as I could tell with all the videos, pictures and messages. If you want your babies to be safe and cared for, please book with this family!”

“Tina is by far one of the best dog sitters. She had my two fur babies for almost a week and was quick to respond and send updates as well as pictures of the dogs throughout their stay. I am extremely happy as Tina and her 2 beautiful daughters all exceeded my expectations. I will definitely use her going forward and recommend anyone who is looking for a sitter for your pet and want to feel comfortable with the person caring for them, Tina is that person. I promise you will not be disappointed ?. Thank you Tina & girls for everything. I hope to see you all soon ???”

About: I’m pretty much a full-time stay-at-home dog mom to my two large dogs, so caring for dogs is already a huge part of my everyday life! I’ve spent months working on training with my own dogs and have lots of hands-on experience with different behaviors, routines, and personalities. I’m especially comfortable with large breeds, but I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. Your pup will be treated like part of the family while staying with me, with plenty of attention, playtime, love, and access to my fully fenced-in yard. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with someone new, so I’ll make sure you feel comfortable and keep you updated with plenty of pictures throughout their stay! Pet care is already a huge part of my everyday routine! I’m home most of the day with my own pets and have a very flexible work schedule, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, attention, meals on their normal schedule, and lots of time outside throughout the day. I have a fully fenced-in yard with plenty of room for dogs to play and two dogs of my own for company. I always prioritize safe introductions and will make sure your dog is comfortable with mine before their stay. Pets are welcome to make themselves at home, and I can easily separate or crate dogs when needed. I’ll follow your pet’s normal feeding, sleeping, medication, and care routine as closely as possible and provide plenty of updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.

“Nina was very accommodating to my dog and I. My dog stayed with her this past weekend and Nina treated him like a part of her family. I loved that he had a great time at her home and wasn’t just placed in a cage over night like at most places. I’m booking with her again for any future trips! If you want your fur baby to be comfortable, loved on, and well cared for, book with Nina. She’ll keep you updated and you won’t have to worry while you’re away.”

About: Patient, caring, and experienced with puppies, seniors, large breeds, and multiple pets. Reliable care with lots of playtime, cuddles, and love, plus daily photo updates to give you peace of mind. I work full time during the day but have plenty of availability most evenings, weekends, and for overnight stays during the week for quality pet care. Pets in my care enjoy a fenced-in yard and a peaceful neighborhood perfect for walks. I have two friendly, socialized large dogs, but if your dog prefers their own space, I can easily keep them separated for everyone's comfort and safety.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Taftville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Taftville is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $52 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 521 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Taftville. 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.

93% of sitters in Taftville 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 Taftville 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 Taftville.

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 Taftville 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.
