“Bianka and her family opened up their house to our little Max for 2 nights and we were updated the whole time. She followed our routine and Max was a happy boy when we got him. Thank you!”
“The best with my girl Persephone. She was able to take her in very last minute and was very very flexible. I really appreciate all of her help and the way she was with Persephone during this tough transitional period. Loved all the pictures and videos she sent and I noticed that Persephone became less stressed overtime which I love. Highly recommend Madalys to everyone!”
“Ryan was great with our dog, Sprint! He was very responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day, which we really appreciated while we were away on vacation. Sprint got plenty of exercise and trips to the dog park every day. I also appreciated that Ryan was attentive and always followed up with questions if he needed clarification on anything related to Sprint’s care. We felt like Sprint was in great hands and would definitely use Ryan again!”
“We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!”

We picked him up and he was so happy and excited, giving Karen so much love on the way out, we will definitely use her again on future trips to the area. shadow had his own puppy palace and got walks and so much play time.

“It was our first time leaving our puppy Misha with a sitter for 2 nights, and we are so grateful to Catherina for her thoughtful care. She was very organized, responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos of Misha at home and during walks. She gave Misha his prescription medication on time, and he had fun playing with Catherina's puppies. We are so happy with Cat's great care, and highly recommend her.”
“I highly recommend Skarlett for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She took care of my dog Kingston for the third time and did a fantastic job.

I'm grateful for her services and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Diana was amazing. She sent us pictures of our dog throughout the stay, and it was clear that our dog was cared for with so much love. I never felt worried or wondered how our dog was doing because I knew he was in great hands.”
“My dog, Atticus, age 2, had his first full day with Margaret a few days ago. He was very well taken care of including a couple of walks. He was happy to play fetch and take naps after walking. It was easy to tell by his face and composure that he had a great day...there was no visible stress when he returned home. Another dependable companion 'star' in his young life when I am not around! Many thanks, M :)”
“Kristen was awesome, highly recommend! Very accommodating considering that it was a major holiday with a chaotic schedule, excellent communication leading up to and during our dog’s stay with her, and a down-to-earth person that truly loves animals and welcomes them into her home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Michelle is fantastic! She not only made my nervous pup feel at ease, her calm confident demeanor helped to calm my nerves as well. This was our first time using a sitter that we didn’t already know and it was super smooth thanks to Michelle. She provided lots of pics and updates and my somewhat anxious chihuahua warmed up to her quickly. I will definitely use her again. Thanks Michelle!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Watertown
This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She took wonderful care of my dog, kept me updated with messages, and gave me complete peace of mind. She was also incredibly accommodating when I realized I had forgotten to include an extra day on my original booking, and she made the process so easy. On top of that, she patiently helped me navigate the Rover app as a first-time user, which I really appreciated. Kind, reliable, and communicative—I would absolutely book with her again!

There are 1,051 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Watertown. About 90% of Watertown 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.
