“Elizette provided the best care for Winston! He had an amazing time with her 2 dogs running around in the enclosed yard. She did a great job with his feeding and going out schedule. Thank you!!”
“Kristin and her family took great care of Grady! Her pictures and videos gave us peace of mind that he was doing well. We sure did miss him, but he received much love and play! He was tired!!! Thank you again for all you did!”
“Ricky takes care of our boys like his own. He lives a little far away, but I don’t mind driving there because I can go do my things with peace of mind when my kids are with him.”
“Great person!!! She took pictures while my dog was there. I was able to communicate with her without a problem. She let me know how my dog was doing. My dog seemed tk have had a blast. Thank you soo much for taking care of my tip.”
“Andrea was wonderful with our senior dog! I was so nervous about leaving him for more than a few days but it was obvious from her correspondence with us as well as pics and videos that he settled in and was happy and comfortable. I think he would have very happily stayed longer with Andrea and her sweet dog🐾.”
“Our dog can be a little skittish with new people, but she warmed right up to Alan and Luis! On her first day, they sent us great pictures of her running and playing. It was clear that she was already settled in and having so much fun. We have to plan another trip soon, so our pup can have another vacation with Alan and Luis!”
“Amazing job!! She took care of my Luna with love and care. Luna came back so tired and sleepy. She has been sleeping for 2 days now, so she must of really worked her and played with her. You can tell she had a really good time over there”
About: Hello. My name is Elaineh and I am young, enthusiastic dog lover. I have a flexible schedule, love to go on walks, and my own transportation. I promise to love your pet as my own when they are with me! I currently work part-time but my schedule is very flexible and adaptable to your needs. When I am not at work, I spent most of time at home where I spend my time studying. I have a big yard. It is unfenced but provides a large space for the dogs to run, walk around, and/or use the potty. I also have a car, so I can drive to different parks/walking trials. At home, I have lots of toys and can make homemade food if requested. If the pup simply needs love and attention, I am happy to provide that too!
“Eddie was great with my dog, Odie. I'll definitely rebook in the future. Odie has leash aggression and some anxiety since he's a rescue, so he needs extra care and attention. Eddie went above and behind my expectations: he walked Odie in a more isolated place, away from other dogs, and texted with regular updates and questions. He took great care of Odie. Thank you!”
“Brian is amazing with our pup. Our pup feels at home in Brian’s home which is immaculately clean and has the opportunity to socialize with other well-behaved pups during her stay. Our pup is used to 5mis worth of daily walks and Brian gives her tons of exercise, attention and affection when she’s with him! Ohh and I get great pics too.”
“Mayra was fantastic! Very communicative and easy to work with - she took great care of Horatio… he came home happy and tired from his stay with Mayra - I would definitely use Mayra again in the future for dog sitting.”
“Nancy did a great job taking care of Ollie! He was undergoing heartworm treatment and needed pills twice a day, and Nancy handled it all. She also gave us lots of updates. Thank you!!”
“Elizabeth watched my two dogs for the first time for two nights. My two seven year old boys are higher energy requiring more attention than many other dogs. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and deeply responsible. Both my dog felt right at home from early on and absolutely enjoyed the walks and playtime. She sent me regular updates with pictures allowing total peace of mind. Perhaps more importantly, my two knuckleheads found a new best friend and I found a sitter that will definitely be used again for future needs.”
“Breyla was a great sitter and communicated very well throughout the entire process. Trey liked her right away and she has a great space for dog sitting. I plan on booking with her again soon.”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Kristina. She took great care of our dog who had never before been boarded or away from home without us. She was very communicative and quick to respond to any messages. We highly recommend her to other families!”
“Madison is fantastic. Her communication is second to none, and the constant, timely communication put me at ease while traveling for an extended period of time. I highly recommend Madison for any type of service when it comes to your pets!”
“Amazing!!! Kept me informed the entire time I was away. Sent me pics of Naz and updated me on how he was doing. How he was sleeping and eating. Even down to when he would go outside. I’d recommend 1,000%”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Patty is great! We left our 4 month old puppy with her for 5 nights. It was our first time leaving our puppy and we enjoyed our trip knowing she was in great hands. Patty was very understanding and patient with our puppy and has a great fenced yard and welcoming home. We will definitely book with Patty again!
Renata is the best! If you are reluctant to leave your pet to travel, she is the care taker for you. I boarded my dog at her house for 7 nights and was able to travel in complete peace. She has a very sweet dog that will keep your dog company. She treated my dog as her own. She walked him several times a day on her amazing property and sent lots of pics and videos. She’s just a genuinely nice person that really enjoys animals. You are essentially booking a vacation for your pet, if you board with her!

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.

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Vernon 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 Vernon home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Vernon.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vernon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Vernon 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
