“Anjaliben was an excellent host for my fur babies Bear and Chubbs. From our first meeting I knew that I made the right decision with how welcoming she was. Bear and Chubbs were calm themselves for being with someone besides our family. This was a first time boarding experience for them and I. Medication was also given without any problems. I would highly recommend Anjaliben for her services that she provides. Bear and Chubbs have found their second home for vacations away from home.”
“I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitter and would highly recommend them. They took excellent care of my dog, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure all of my pet’s needs were met. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and responsible hands. My dog came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!”
“I highly recommend David and Phyllis! They’re great people and really love dogs. We are so grateful to have them watch our dog, Toby!! Toby love’s going to their house which gives us a lot of piece of mind.”
“This was Milo's first time away from home so I was worried. Brineydi gave me daily updates, photos, and even a video of how Milo was doing and it was clear he was having fun. I'll definitely book with her again!”
“5 stars all the way. This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and we couldn’t not be happier with the service and care we received. Our little Gunner has terrible anxiety and does not like to be alone ever since his sister passed away last year. Aivy took such good care of our Gunner. She was patient and kind and made sure she communicated with us on how Gunner was doing. We can’t thank her enough and look forward to using her again. Thank you for your patience with our old man.”
“I highly recommend Yajaira!! She was warm and welcoming and treated my dog like he was part of her family! She communicated with me often and sent pictures!! I will definitely be using her again😊”
About: Attention to detail. Lots of love to give with kids grown and departed. We believe your animals are just as important as our friends and family. We work from home and have a small havanese dog as well as a small cat. Caring for another pup or two would be no problem at all! We have a fully fenced in back yard. A spacious home that is already dog friendly. And a very safe and beautiful neighborhood. Must be cat friendly. Lots of love and attention to give.
“Sarah was fabulous! She took great care of my girl, Millie. We had an unfortunate situation arise on our trip away and had to extend our trip and Sarah had no issues at all watching Millie for longer than originally planned. Will definitely use her again to take care of our pup in the future and would recommend her to our friends!”
“Monica & Conrad were wonderful caregivers to our pups while our family went on vacation. They sent daily updates & lots of adorable pics! By the communication, we can tell our dogs were given lots of loving care, treats, fun activities like walks/parks as well as lots of affection. Easy to book and reasonable. Our pups also enjoyed playing with their pup Pongo! We will definitely be booking them again in the future!”
“Our two dogs always love staying with Aubrey and her family. She provides a safe home environment and fenced-in yard. We love getting daily updates with photos about their day while we’re away. Aubrey is great with communication, pricing, and most importantly pet care! Our pups always come home happy and exhausted 😁 thanks again, till next time! 🧡🤎🤍”
“I loved using Haley as my pet sitter and will continue to do so ! It was my first time using Rover and she made the experience perfect as can be, she sent pictures all throughout the day of my three cats, very communicative, and was absolutely the sweetest. I am very pleased with her pet services !”
“Jenny and her husband are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! One of our pups got a little sick, and he they took every precaution to make sure he was okay. From calling the vet, sending us updates, and sleeping with him at night to make sure he was okay, they treated our dogs just like they were their own. They really put us at ease and we always know that our dogs are in good hands when they go to visit!”
“Hilary and Sam (and kids) were absolutely wonderful with Jaxon. I love their energy and their home is beautiful & perfect for pups! They’re loving, communicative and friendly. 10/10 recommend! Jaxon will most definitely be back to visit ☺️???”
“I love going to Sheree to care for my dog. She is patient and very loving with my pup. She was even kind enough to drop my girl off to me when we were unable to pick her up on time. I can't recommend Sheree enough”
“Alison was great with our dog Maggie! She took great care of her, kept her on her normal schedule, and showered her with attention and walks! Alison kept us updated during Maggie’s stay with texts and pictures. We felt very at ease knowing Maggie was so lovingly cared for while we were away!”
“Kristina was incredible! It was my first time booking a boarding session with Rover and she was so easy to work with sent me plenty of detailed updates about her fun weekend with Watson. She helped to make everything go smoothly! Thank you!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Barrington
Kelsey & Conor were amazing with George!! He settled in immediately with their two dogs, Brody and Beans, and had the best week ever. Daily walks, constant play, and by the end he was lounging on their furniture like he owned the place. They sent photos and updates without us having to ask, and were very flexible with drop-off and pickup over a busy holiday week. He came home happy and completely worn out. Could not recommend them more!!
5 stars all the way. Our Gunner is old and has terrible anxiety when left alone. Danielle truly went out of her way to make him feel comfortable. She sent us daily pictures and updates which was so appreciated. He looked so comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend Danielle 100%.
Stephen and his family took wonderful care of our two pups while we were away on a two week vacation. I really appreciated the frequent photos and updates, which made it clear that our dogs were having a great time and felt at home. They returned from their stay happy and tired from all the time they spent playing in Stephen’s backyard. I know they will be excited to stay with Stephen and his family the next time we go away. 😊
I can’t stress enough how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your fur baby with someone when you’re on vacation. That being said Jenny and her family took such good care of my puppy Teddy. When I saw the pics each day I could see the love she gives to her fur clients. I had a nice vacation knowing he was living his best life with Jenny. I highly recommend if you need a like home environment Jenny will not let you down. I definitely will only use Jenny in the future. Thanks Jenny Teddy will miss you💙
Melissa is amazing!! She was able to fit us in on short notice, and right from the meet and greet, Rusty was immediately comfortable with her. She has such a nice yard for dogs to play and relax too! Rusty also seemed really happy and well cared for at pickup. I would definitely book with her again!!
Lindsey is truly the best when it comes to taking care of my Guinness! I can’t thank her enough for being able to accommodate my last minute schedule updates and additional time requests. I know he is getting the attention and exercise he deserves. I would highly recommend for any of your short or long term services.
Nikki is the best! She was immediately so understanding, open to learning, and accommodating to all of my dog’s quirks and needs, which made me feel much more comfortable boarding him for a few days. Alfie was definitely in great hands and we will be reaching out for future boarding needs! Thank you so much Nikki! 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Barrington on Rover is $61.05 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 3,206 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Barrington. 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.
94% of Barrington 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 Barrington 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 Barrington 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 Barrington.
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 Barrington 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 NJ 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.
