About: I have been caring for animals most of my life! I've cared for dogs, cats, goats, chickens and even falcons! My favorite is caring for dogs. I grew up with my dog, Porky, our family Terrier. As I raised my own family, our dog, Lady, became a significant part of my children's lives. Now I often care for my children's pets, and that is where the cats, chickens, goats and falcons come in. I love them all! Occasionally I care for my children's pets; however, I don't have pets of my own. I am typically home most of the day, and if I do go out, it's only for a few hours. Please check my schedule for openings. I have a fenced in side-yard for dogs to run and play. I prefer to not walk large dogs but am happy to take them for a ride in my van. Pets are welcome on the furniture. I am open to feeding and care as suggested by my clients. I have a dog bed ready and waiting.
“Lana is awesome! My dogs and I love her and they enjoyed their stay. They were worn out and happy when they came home. It was a great experience and I will continue to use Lana for all my doggie daycare needs. Thank you Lana”
“Jana is awesome. My dog Cessy felt right at home. I didn't worry about her at all! Jana sent me pics throughout the day too, so cute. Cessy came home both times very content. I will definitely be taking Cessy back to Jana.”
“Aneice was so helpful and sweet! She was really understanding and flexible with our changing plans. We got regular pictures of our girls and we always were comfortable knowing they were in great hands.”
“Steve gets so excited to go to Jessica’s. He loves playing with the other dogs and he’s able to run out his high energy. Jessica is very sweet and caring. We’re so happy we found her!”
“Top notch care! Lauren was so kind and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies with her. They came back happy and I could tell they had a fun day. I have used rover for awhile now- I highly recommend Lauren! We will be using her again!”
“Connie is such a sweetheart who took such great care of my sweet little boy. He’s lived a life and can be nervous in new places, but her sweet self and her fun little pup Patty helped Toby settle right in and enjoy a fun filled day! I’m excited to rebook with Connie to help my little guy get more comfortable in our new town!!”
About: We both have grown up with dogs our whole life and have done a lot of dog watching and walking. We have one dog of our own. We can take care of all ages and dogs are part of the family around here. We have a lot of availability between the two of us and our schedules. I am home almost of the time as well as my husband, Drew. We have a large, fully fenced in yard. They have water available all of the time. They will be fed to your specifications and loved like one of our own.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and more. I currently have two dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine so I tailor their care to match. I offer more than just boarding. Your pet can enjoy structured walks, trail hikes, enrichment play, drop-ins, bathing, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m also experienced with administering medications, so you can feel confident your pet is fully cared for. Your pet will be part of a calm, loving home with my two animal-savvy kids (15 & 11), getting real family attention, not just supervision. Whether your pet needs adventure, playtime or snuggles, I’ve got them covered. You’ll get regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved. I’m home full time and ready to spend the day doing what your pet loves the most. Whether that means fetch at the park, an adventurous hike, or Petflix and chill, we’ll make the most of our time together. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. Your pets will have plenty of options when it comes to getting cozy and comfortable. If your pets feel more secure in a crate of their own, I’m happy to provide space for that too.
About: I am first aid and CPR certified in animals. I have experience in a vet office, daycare, boarding, and grooming. I know how to administer vaccinations and also diabetic insulin shots. Your pet(s) will always come first. I have many references as well. Feel free to ask any and all questions. I believe animals are a part of our family and I will do anything it takes to make sure the animals are healthy and happy. I don't discriminate against any breeds whatsoever. I was a supervisor at a daycare, grooming and boarding facility. I am medically obsessed with dogs and love cats as well. I don't mind taking care of other exotic pets as well. You will never have to worry about the safety of your animals when they are in my hands. Caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life—it doesn’t feel like a task, it feels like joy! I build my schedule around pet care to ensure every pet gets the attention, playtime, and care they deserve. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I can provide consistent, timely visits and adapt easily to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s morning feedings, midday walks, evening meds, or just extra snuggles, I’m happy to make their comfort and happiness my priority. In my home or yours, pets are treated like family. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel secure and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that means specific feeding times, administering medications, play sessions, or quiet time. I’m patient with shy or anxious pets and attentive to details like changes in behavior or appetite. In a client’s home, I respect your space and routines, keeping everything clean and tidy while giving your pets the consistent care they’re used to. I love sending updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away.
“Becca and family were awesome!! Beaux came home a happy dog. They sent several pics of him during his overnight stay. He looked comfortable and happy in their home. Thank you, we will definitely be using Becca as doggy daycare in the future. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs since day one. As I got older I joined a local rescue as a pet foster parent and eventually rescued a few of my own outside of the rescue. I have had many types breeds of dogs in my care and have also watched ferrets, guinea pigs, goats, and cats. I have experience from newborn puppies/kittens/ chicks to senior care. I went through multiple puppy training classes with both my Dane and Shorthair. I am a stay at home human/pet mom so I have a very open schedule. I am able to watch pets in my home or drop in. I am typically always home. My backdoor opens into a 6 foot fenced, fully gated, dog run. They have 24/7 access to this, unless it's raining. We then have the "big back yard" or 1/4 acers, which has no shade and a chicken coop. So, I have to be a with them and it can'tbe blistering hot, that we work our some energy. We love outdoor time, so as long as the weather cooperates we are outside! When inside they are able to roam as they please, sit on the couch, sleep on the bed and get all the pets. I only use a crate if that is what they are used to.

About: Hi there! I’m Alexis — a lifelong animal lover, full-time college student at Weber State University studying Criminal Justice, and proud mom to a sweet baby boy (born May 2025). I share my home with two healthy cats and two big, lovable dogs — a Doberman and a Leonberger — so I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities! Animals have always trusted me, and I take pride in earning that trust. My Doberman once went through a major surgery after swallowing a corn cob, and I personally nursed her back to health — giving medication, managing her diet, and keeping her comfortable for weeks. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of proactive care. I love spending my days walking, training, or playing fetch with my dogs. I’m also experienced with basic training, reading body language, and keeping pets calm in new environments. Whether your dog needs a walk, cuddle time, or structured play, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for — just like my own. I’m a full time college student at Weber state studying criminal justice. I have no employment right now just picking up side gigs here and there. I’m really focusing on my college career and being a new mom and living life as best I can in my 20s. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and safe. I have a separate room for my cats if needed, and I crate dogs when unsupervised to prevent injuries or accidents (and to protect your pup — vet bills are no joke!). I feed on a consistent schedule, ensure pets always have fresh water, and make sure collars, tags, and microchips are up to date. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities — I treat every animal as if they’re part of my family. ❤️
“This was our first time leaving our puppy and we were really nervous about it. But Ashley made us feel comfortable and at ease from the get go. Our little guy seemed completely calm and worn out from a fun day when we picked him up. Would definitely use Ashley again.”
About: I grow up my whole life with dogs. My babysitter was 2 beautiful Doberman growing up. I know dogs can be different same as all of us people, but with the right care and treatment they can let you lead and show their love, respect, and be your best friend. I had many different dogs since they were puppies until it was time for them to go to heaven. And all of them I remember with so much love and gratitude. They’re the best creatures in this planet. And I will be more than pleased if you let me watch your pets because I know how important they are and they need the attention and love even in those situations that we won’t be home so if you’re going on vacation, small trip, etc. I will make sure your dog is being taking care, feed, had enough walks, and be comfortable being here at home ready for bed, and if they have any special care as medicine or something like that I’m more than happy to have them on track until you can come back from vacation. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns in case this small summary didn’t respond any of your questions. I’m working with a very flexible schedule. I can make anything to work around your dog needs or special care. Any drop of around 4-5PM any day of the week. Thank you. I do have currently 1 friendly golden doodle. She’s a girl and love to play and make friends. She love kids and other dogs as well. She will keep your fur babies happy and busy playing and taking naps together.

Connie is such a sweetheart who took such great care of my sweet little boy. He’s lived a life and can be nervous in new places, but her sweet self and her fun little pup Patty helped Toby settle right in and enjoy a fun filled day! I’m excited to rebook with Connie to help my little guy get more comfortable in our new town!!
Jana's love of animals really shines through! She was so patient & kind in getting to know my Frenchie named Ava, and astutely observed Ava's nervousness meeting a new sitter. She sent some great pictures of her dog Olive playing with Ava, and one cute pic of Ava chilling out. Jana provided Ava with her probiotic on time, and put all her treats back in her treat bag after they spilled out. Jana is a great sitter who I trust will give Ava everything she needs. I look forward to bringing Ava in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in West Haven on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your West Haven commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 624 sitters in West Haven, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
