Michele watched my dog in her home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I loved all the updates and pictures she sent—it really made me feel calm knowing my dog was well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Michele!

Tom was great! He’s very friendly and worked well with our dog Lyla! He gave great feedback on her stay so we weren’t worried about our dog at all! I’d highly recommend Tom!

Leslie did a wonderful job watching our two small dogs (a mini-poodle and a bichon) for a nine-day vacation. She followed all our detailed requests (about food, etc), kept in frequent contact, and sent us lots of pictures. It was pretty clear that our dogs were well-pampered during their stay, and possibly did not want to leave! We will use Leslie again unhesitatingly in the future.

We had Cookie with Melanie for a week during our winter break and she was amazing! She sent me frequent updates and pictures which I really appreciated seeing while being away! Also when our picky eater refused to eat her kibbles (we usually mix her food with meat but didn’t send it in for logistical reasons), Melanie shared her concerns and asked if there’s something she likes and made chicken, just for her! Thank you for taking care of our four legged child!

Our pup Lola stayed with Asia & Jon while we were on vacation for over 2 weeks and she had the best time! We got updates with pictures or videos daily and Lola was having a blast with her “friends”. When Lola’s allergies were acting up Asia reached out to let us know right away and we were able to get the medicine to them quickly. We will definitely use them in the future and will be recommending them to our friends for their pups.

My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!

Gurdeep, is a true gem. Her and her family has been the first and so far the only other family outside of mine who has watched my dog Rocky. She communicates effectively and is super accommodating. I truly do trust and appreciate her; and I would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.

As always stellar service and Ruby has become an extended part of the hosts family! Daily texts with video and photo updates put my mind at ease that Ruby is being well taken care of. She even has a little “boyfriend” Sebastian that they follow each other around and take naps together. In terms of flexibility, communication and professionalism, Isbath, her family and fur babies deserve more than 5 stars! She comes highly recommended!

I truly appreciate Alex and the wonderful care she provided for my pups while I was away. She has watched my younger dog, Mila, before, and Mila is always happy and excited to see her. This time, Alex cared for both Mila and my 14-year-old Yorkie, and I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her hands. Knowing they were well cared for allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without any worries. I would gladly trust Alex with my dogs again.

Melodie was AWESOME!!! She treated our Trinity like family. Melodie communicated with us daily with updates and photos. We’ve used pet hotels in the past, and it usually takes days for Trinity to get back into the swing of things and be her normal self, upon picking her up she was her usual ball of energy! :) I know my pup well, and she was truly happy with her stay, and so were we. We will definitely be checking Melodie’s upcoming availability for the remainder of the year, and I would highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a safe and secure, but also caring/loving space for their fur kid. I can be a nervous and most times overprotective pet parent….So I’m glad we met Melodie, as I said at the top of this review…..She’s AWESOME??????

I feel bad for myself when my dogs have a good time without me. - but THEY LOVE GOING TO DEB’S! An overnight and no problems, no starving themselves, no crying all night. Just a regular day only without me. How lucky am I to have access to this help for my furr babies (and for my soul)!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Basking Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 12,906 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Basking Ridge. About 88% of Basking Ridge 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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. 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.
