“Heidi and her family took care of our dog Bucky for a week while we were out of town. She went above and beyond to make sure Bucky was safe and had a good time while he was there. We felt comfortable and confident leaving him with them for 5 days!”
“Tammy and Jeffery were amazing to take care of Coco. She came home exhausted because she had such a great time and played a ton. I got tons of pictures and videos of Coco while we were away. I highly recommend them for anyone. I will definitely be using them again to take care of our precious dog. Thank you Tammy and Jeffery.”
“It was my first time using a dog sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Angelia took amazing care of Piper and kept me at ease the whole time. I’m so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend her!”
“Our first experience with Rover was excellent when we left our dog Bogie with Michael for a last minute trip. Michael's own dog Ricky is so sweet and well-loved, I was immediately put at ease with the decision. Michael's home is clean and comfortable with a large fully fenced yard for the dogs to play. He kept me updated on how Bogie was doing and sent pictures during the stay. I would highly recommend Michael and will be booking with him again soon!”
“Red and Maya enjoyed their time at Morgan's place. Morgan was very communicative and response pretty quickly to messages. We got status and pictures daily on how the dogs were doing.”
“Mitchell and Tara took the BEST care of our beloved Yorkie, and seemed to truly enjoy their time with him. It’s so hard to leave a member of the family behind, but I will say that Mitchell and Tara’s communication and warmth put our hearts at ease. Thank you!”
“Kelli was so sweet with our dogs! She made them feel at home & comfortable! She has great communication & I loved when she sent us photos! Thank you so much Kelli!”
“My pup was well cared for and seemed happy and healthy when I picked him up! Adrienne was also very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times and was patient with me when I was running behind. I will use her again!”
About: I have had pets my entire life and can’t imagine being without them. I would love to dote on your pets while you are away so they know they are always loved! I am currently available anytime. That might adjust with some upcoming life changes. Currently Harley Dog and I enjoy morning walks, and evening time brush sessions. I have a partially fenced yard so I would take them to potty and on walks with a leash. Harley and the boys (cats) are dog friendly. Or at least dog neutral since the boys tend to ignore them.
“Daniela was so awesome! You can tell she really cares about dogs and their owners! She took care of our sweet girl so well!! She updated us with pictures and she helped make the process so much easier! Would definitely use her again!!”
“Chandra is the PERFECT sitter for my Pomeranian. We have used her a couple times now and my pup runs up to the door when we drop her off. Chandra sends lots of photos and checks in with me often.”

“Christy and Luke did a great job of caring for our dog, Dax, while we were in the area for a wedding. They were very flexible, quick to communicate, took great care of Dax, and sent updates throughout his stay. Next time we're back in the area, we'll definitely reach out to have them watch Dax again.”
“Phoebe was incredible with our dog. He was a little traumatized from some bad experiences with boarding companies, and Phoebe was perfect for helping him with his anxiety. She was loving and attentive, took him for walks, and updated me daily. It was easy to tell she genuinely cared about him. I would highly recommend Phoebe to anyone!”
About: I have grown up around dogs and cats my whole life and now have one 16 year old cat (who has been around dogs his whole life), an 8 year old mini Aussie, and a 7 year old healer/aussie mix. All of my fur babies get along with other animals and we love to play. A tired pup is a happy pup! I typically work 8-4 but have flexibility. I have a fully fenced, large backyard so I prefer animals to come to my place but I’m also willing to go check in on or walk pets at other locations. My dogs have a gotten use to not having a schedule so they are very adaptable to other pets schedule needs. I live alone so I will be very involved and attentive.
“Veronica took a very last minute booking request after a sitter canceled and she was fantastic with my dog Reese. He has some behaviors and she handled them all well and with patience. He got a little sick while he was with her and she took great care of him. She was very responsive and sent pictures!”
About: My wife and I love our dog Smoky (Seen in the profile picture) from early on he has struggled with separation anxiety. With lots of patience and training we helped him grow into the strong boy he is today. We have engaged in 4 levels of training with him that have helped us learn the skills to meet pets needs. We have a fenced yard with a locked gate that includes an obstacle course for small dogs. We also have a doggy door for pets to go in and out to do their business. If you decide to choose us, we would have to have the dogs to meet at a neutral space to ensure a positive relationship between our dog and yours. I’m currently working a remote job so I am home at all times. Sundays, my wife and I will be at church from 9-11. We also like to make time to take our dog for a walk or play in the backyard daily. We have a fenced yard with a lock on the gate. We have a doggy door that goes out to the backyard. We have a ring camera in the backyard for peace of mind. In hour house we have a 360 degree Furbo camera that can launch treats from a phone app.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in West Haven is $40

Bridget and Jason were fantastic with our two dogs. Sometimes, my dogs have a hard time eating when they’re anxious (even when they’re at home), but they ate just fine, which tells me they were very comfortable. They sent updates frequently and it looked as though my dogs were very entertained and having fun. We highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again!
Ashley took such good care of Fritz, she wanted Fritz to feel at home, so she let him sleep in his own bed in her bedroom at night. ( just like home). She took him for walks and sent us pictures of him having fun in her backyard. We had to buy a new collar, but it was too big so she went a bought Fritz a new one that fit much better.She’s very detailed, even gave us a report on his behavior, she was amazing, we fully trusted her with Fritz!!
I am so appreciative of the level of care my dog received from Laura! He was so happy and comfortable with her that I had zero concerns about him while I was on my trip. I felt like she loved him like one of her own and that means a lot to me! I would definitely use your service again! 🤍
Jessica was amazing with our fur babies and we’re very grateful! This was our first experience using Rover and she helped us understand how everything worked and was very communicative throughout our trip. Would be happy to use her again in the future and would def recommend! Thank you Jessica!
Danii is awesome with our dogs! We have left them with her three times now and they are always excited to see her! She sends us pictures and updates and is very good at communicating with us about how they are doing. We no longer have to worry when we leave them because we know they are being well cared for.
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in West Haven is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $50 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 771 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in West Haven. About 94% of West Haven 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 UT 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.
