“I will definitely book with Margaret again. She took very good care of our Juno and kept in contact and sent pictures of Juno during our trip. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. :)”
“Rebecca was awesome to work with. She kept me in the loop the entire time she had my boys and when I showed up they were still having fun. I would highly recommend her to her and will certainly be using her for boarding in the future!”
“Aneice was very friendly, professional, and willing to work with whatever we needed for our doggo. It was our first time leaving him at someone's home, so we were nervous, and so was our anxious pup. She was very reassuring & did her best to make us all comfortable with several photos & updates for us humans, and many snuggles for our dog. She did a fantastic job & I highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Aneice! ❤️”
“The care that Danii provided to our dog was top notch. She provided photos as well as update on her day. She was quick to respond to our emails. Our dog has a few medical needs that she was able to accommodate. I will be using her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs a safe and loving place for their animal family.”
“These guys were fantastic! They kept me updated on how my dog was doing and she seemed perfectly happy there playing with their dogs and sleeping with their kids and stuff. I would totally use them again!”
“Laura was amazing! She provided pictures and updates on my girl Bella. She treated her so very well and she was a happy pup, I wasnt sure if she would be coming home with me at pickup. I will definitely be a return customer.”
“Sandy and Chris made our last minute weekend getaway possible and were wonderful sitters for our girls! They welcomed them with open arms and were friendly and prompt in their communication. We would not hesitate to use them again in the future or to recommend them to others! Thank you for giving our girls a home away from home and loving on them while we were gone!”
“Ashlee was INCREDIBLE. She went above and beyond in every way. I’ve never had a rover be so thoughtful or intentional or thorough. She sent me a lengthy questionaire about my dog and then sent me daily updates with photos and videos. I could tell my dog was being taken care of and loved. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Jessica was great with our new puppy and sent us updates every day. I knew she was in great hands and she enjoyed playing with the other dogs there. Jessica was very accommodating with our schedule for drop off/pick up times.”
“Kristen was wonderful to work with. She took care of our older dog who has some anxieties and was great to check-in and give updates while we were gone. Will definitely use again!”
“Emily was wonderful! She made it very comfortable to leave our dog with her. We knew Stella would be well taken care of with her. If we are ever that way again we would definitely use Emily.”
“We've booked with Crowe & Taylor twice (in close succession) and Levee had a wonderful time! We got tons of pictures and we could tell she was happy. Levee is typically low energy but will play with dogs when she's comfortable, and we got videos of Levee playing with their dog and it was very heartwarming! We could also tell she'd been playing well because she was turning grey (she's normally white) and had made plans to bathe her after pick up but Crowe & Taylor beat us too it and had bathed her the morning we picked her up! Overall, they're amazing and we're incredibly grateful for the care and comfort they gave our princess (and my nervous self). We'll definitely be reaching out next time we need! ❤️”
“I can not say enough good about Becca!! Our dog loves staying at her house and was so excited to go back for his second stay. I booked last minute because we had an out-of-town emergency, and she was so accommodating. Thank you so much!”
“Kimberly was so great with my dog. Her daughter loved playing with him too. They were attentive and sent update photos daily. I felt very confident that my dog was being cared for and was having a wonderful time!”
“Alicia, Mike, and their family are great with Jed. I enjoyed the pictures they sent. I'm grateful that they accepted a last minute booking, and I will happily book a third stay when the time comes.”
“Lauren took great care of our dog! She sent us lots of pictures and I could tell he was having so much fun. I don’t think he even missed us at all because he had a great new family for the week. She was super flexible with our plans and very good with communication. I will definitely rebook when I need another sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Haven
Peggy was amazing with my Rusty! She let me drop off his stuff the night before going on vacation so that I didn’t have to worry about rushing to set things up the next morning. She also wonderfully handled him having a seizure during his stay, and timely notified me of it happening. She had no problems giving him his oral medications. She sent pictures and little updates throughout the week. I will absolutely use her services again in the future!
Becca and her family are amazing! They took our dog last minute and loved her like their own, she was so accommodating and our dog was comfortable the second she walked in!! So grateful to have found Becca- we now have a consistent sitter that our dog loves to go to!!
I can’t say enough good things about Ryan. We lucked out when we found him several years ago. He has been our consistent pet sitter for going on four years now and it’s so upsetting that we’re moving because I fully trust my pets in his care. He truly cares about the animals he watches and I know my animals are in the best hands
Morgan was amazing! She was easy to communicate with and took the best care of my golden doodle! She sent pictures regularly and made me feel comfortable at please while our family was away! We were all able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was being well cared for and entertained while we were away! Highly recommend!
Chaylee was wonderful. This was our first time ever boarding or having someone watch our dog that wasn’t a family member. She was extremely kind, very responsive, sent many photos that honestly helped with the anxious feeling of our Ghost being in a new place. It was very much a new happy place. Truly she deeply cares for pets and is just a kind and sweet soul. Thank you very much

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Haven on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 781 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Haven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
99% of West Haven sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which West Haven landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Haven 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 West Haven.
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 West Haven 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 UT 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.
