“We found Jessica P. when we were in town visiting family and needed to board our pup for the day. Jessica was great — very communicative and easy to work with! She sent plenty of pics to show us that our dog was relaxed and engaged and having a good visit. We would not hesitate to leave our pup with Jessica again for daycare.”
“Julissa has been amazing with our little lucy. My wife and I work in the City so finding someone trusting to look after our Cav while we're away was very important to us. Our job can sometimes be demanding as well with odd hours but Julissa has been very accomodating to us. What I love about Julissa is she keeps us posted with photos and updates throughout the day. It always brings a smile to our face knowing that our lucy is having fun and being well taken care of. Would high recommend Julissa for day care needs! Our pup thrives more around humans than other dogs, and Julissa and her family always give Lucy the affection she loves.”
“Ekaterina and her family did such an amazing job with my very shy, reserved labradoodle. He spent the entire day at their home and upon pickup, he was calm, content and happy. I highly recommend Ekaterina and we look forward to using her again!”
“Isbath and her family welcomed my puppy Koltrane with open arms. I was grateful that they were able to accommodate me at the very last minute and provide daycare services for 4 days straight. They provided a safe backyard for play and potty breaks, and enrichment time. My puppy tried to run back into the yard the 1st day when I picked him, and was always excited to return and play. They were understanding of all Koltranes excitable energy which made me comfortable with bringing him back. Highly recommended.”
About: Growing up with a pets myself, I’ve always taken care of them. Whether it’s going out for long walks or running around the house, I have first hand experience with it. My schedule is very flexible as I can work from home and offer a very accommodating schedule to anyone that chooses to book their loving pet with me. I live in a townhouse with 3 floors, which means your dog or cat will have no problem running around the house freely as they want to. (It truly is a workout) I also live nearby a reservation with hiking trails and lots of outdoor space.
“Champ had the greatest day with Eunice and her family! He ran around the yard, played with her dog and got so many cuddles! I can always tell what kind of day he’s had when I pick him up and he was happy as can be! Plus lots of amazing pics throughout the day. Highly recommend Eunice!”
“Erika was very responsive and flexible. She took good care of Peppercorn and kept us updated by the app with detailed updates and tracking of his drinking/eating/toileting schedule. She was very flexible with allowing us to change hours / dates when our schedule changed. Would recommend Erika!”
“Wonderful experience. He is super attentive and really wants to know your pet's needs. His place is beautiful and with so much space any pet would be happy and comfortable. Would def recommend.”
“Abbe was wonderful! She was so communicative leading up to the visit and during Autumn’s stay with her. My pup can get anxious being in a new space and she made her feel comfortable. It was such a peace of mind knowing she was being cared for. I highly recommend Abbe!”
“Kosby had another awesome stay and we think that Skye and Sicily are becoming his best friends! He enjoys the whole family so much, rode back home perfectly and was super tired, which means he really had a great time! Kosby was cared for amazingly and will 100% be back the next time we need doggy daycare for him!”
“Megan & Nick were absolutely stellar dog sitters. They answered all my questions and accommodated a rushed request for both the booking and a meet and greet. They were extremely communicative throughout the whole process and put a new dog dad at ease. I would remiss to leave out the lovable Bubba, who was a most gracious host, sharing his toys and his space. He and Rigby were fast friends. The whole family was lovely, clearly dog lovers. Looking forward to booking with them again soon!”
“Five Stars! They watched our new rescue puppy during his first few work days with us and were a pleasure to deal with in all respects. They also have a lovely dog, Walnut—we're hoping our new pup picked up some good manners from him! Thank you.”
“Veeru had a great time at Melanie’s. When he came home, he was tired from the fun day he had. Melanie was great to work with, she was very comfortable with large size dog and handled Veeru well. Would highly recommend her.”
About: Thank you for visiting my page! I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud Rover Star Sitter. As a dog parent myself, I understand how important safety and trust are — they are always my top priority. Your dog will receive lots of attention, affection, and care while staying with me. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going for walks, playing, and simply making them feel comfortable and relaxed. I always try to follow each dog’s personality and routine so they feel safe and happy while their family is away. I also love sharing photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing. Sometimes, just for fun, I practice little games or simple commands with dogs and take cute photos of them during their stay — you can see some examples on my profile. I’m currently a full-time mom, which gives me the flexibility to give dogs plenty of attention during the day. Our home is calm, safe, and full of love for animals. Your dog will be treated like family here. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup!

“Doug was great with Molly! She had such a fun time and was totally tired out from her day. He was very friendly and provided updates throughout. He was very flexible with timing as well. We would definitely use him again in the future.”

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Berkeley Heights is $42 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $53 per day. 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 of October 2026, there are 10,766 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Berkeley Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Berkeley Heights 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.
As of October 2026, there are 10,766 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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 , 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 .
