“We just adopted our dog and had only had her for a few weeks. We couldn’t take her on a trip we had planned and Laura was amazing!! Our dog was really nervous and she worked with her and she did so good. We will be using Laura again for sure!”
“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.”
“Jason & Bridget were amazing for my dog, Millie. They were consistent with the pictures they sent and definitely treated my dog as their own for the 2 weeks. They are extremely flexible and I cannot recommend them enough. We will be using them again in the future! Thanks guys!”
“Jana, along with her husband and son did an awesome job with our lil Gracie. At first we were hesitant because we had never done anything like this, but after our Meet n greet we felt alot better about it. She sent pictures to us that showed Gracie playing and hanging out with her 3 lil dogs!! Gracie is a Lil 4 yearold Yorkie, and Jana has 3 dogs of her own, two of the Yorkies as well so that was a bonus !! We feel like we now have a second family, and whenever we leave town for a few days, Gracie is for sure going to return to her "New Friends" house for a sleepover !! Thanks Jana !!”
“Aubrey was such a pleasure to work with. She took such good care of our kitten, she sent pictures, videos and daily updates. I will absolutely use her in the future. Nina”

“Emily took great care of my Lola! Lola looked comfortable and happy when I picked her up and I think she was sad to leave. Emily was great to communicate with and easy to schedule with. Would happily work with her again!”
“Becca was super great with our dog and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I loved that our dog was in a loving home, not a big facility where she'd be stuck in a cage most of the day. Becca sent me daily updates and photos of our dog and I knew she was well cared for and was happy while there. Communication was easy and I'm happy I chose Becca to watch her while we were away.”
“Kristen was amazing!! She sent updates everyday, took our dog to the dog park/on walks for hours each day. So sweet and you can tell she really loves animals! We will absolutely be using her going forward!”

“Cindy is an awesome dog sitter. She's knowledgeable and provides a wonderful experience for our fur babies to feel happy and safe. Our two dogs really enjoyed their stay with her, and we enjoyed the peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for. She gave us daily reports complete with pictures. We would definitely like to have her watch our dogs in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Haven
I've been training and working with dogs since I was 13 years old and I can say with bold confidence that Jessica is amazing! She truly cares about each and every dog and gets to know their personalities individually. I do not trust a lot of people with my puppies they're family Jessica joins the rankes of that small trusted few. We will be back.
Becca was absolutely wonderful! We had 2 meet and greets for dogs to acclimate to each other. She is very good reading dog’s body language. She was able to keep things in control and let the dogs get adjusted. Becca is also very accommodating. We had to cancel due to an urgent matter and she worked with us until we could move forward and set a date for our trip. She was wonderful with our dog. She loves animals and she loved Cash and his sweet personality traits. Cash needs a little extra care and work and she was very willing and happy to accommodate everything I asked. I will definitely use Becca again. She is a great find!
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 July 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 July 2026, there are 789 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.
