“Cynthia took great care of my dog at her place. She followed instructions, kept me updated, and even made my dog rice to encourage her to eat. Her dog was very friendly with my nervous greyhound. They even played together in Cynthia’s back patio.”
“Eric and Raz were wonderful!! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with them. Highly recommend and hope to use them again the next time we’re in Philly!”
“Zyiana was great! She was so flexible to accommodate my travel times. She sent great pics and videos during updates giving me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“Kristen was excellent!! Highly recommend!! We left our dog Kloie (a very shy cockapoo) for a week while we were away. Kristen regularly sent us lots of photos and updates! No need to have any concerns about her dog Shakes...he is such a sweet, gentle, patient, older dog... Kloie clearly loved him! She and her family really loved on our little Kloie and we appreciated that so much! Kloie seemed to be living her best life while we were away LOLL”
“Liz was absolutely fabulous! So friendly, professional, and easy-going. My dog is older - he’s a picky eater, enjoys attention, and prefers to cuddle in a human bed - and Liz was quick to accommodate his needs. Needless to say, he came home a very happy pup. Her dog, Duffey, is also the sweetest. She has a nice fenced-in yard and takes daily walks, which my dog loves. She sent me photos and is great with communication/correspondence. A++++”

About: More than just a sitter, I’m your pups new playdate buddy! My name’s is Katlyn! This is my first time on Rover but I’m ready to meet and help out some of awesome pup parents! When it comes to experience with pets, I have had 2 small dogs that I grew up with, which now I have to go a visit since I no longer live with them:( I’ve always felt very passionate about animals and I’m ready to make caring for them and helping other apart of my everyday life! Having that said, I have been a medical assistant for the past 5 years, although I am currently not working at the moment so needless to say I’m very flexible! My main option here is dog walking and house drop ins but I am also open to having your dogs come and hang out at my place if needed! Communication is my best friend. Tell me what you need, after all, these are your babies and while they’re with me I will treat them like my own! Expect lots of picture updates while you’re away from your fur baby as well! Send me any questions and I’ll be happy to answer 🥰 I am currently not working so my schedule is very flexible at the moment while I am looking for a new job! Let me know what you need and we will work it out! I live in an apartment but that doesn’t stop us! I have a ton of places near me to get out all your pups energy! I only handle one client at time so my focus is solely on your furry babies!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 10 years. I am also a firefighter for over 12 years and have worked with K9 s at work. My dog Tucker loves other dogs and is always looking to run and play. I work from home so I am always available to take care of your pets. My wife is also available most days to help as well! My dog sleeps in bed with us and is allowed on all furniture. We also allow our friends’ dogs on all the furniture and bed when we watch them. We have plenty of space for dogs to play in our yard and will be getting a fence very soon.
“Tim was great! Friendly demeanor and lives in a wonderful location with quick access to the SRT; our pup was very happy. He came home clean, loved, and well taken care of. We will absolutely reach out to Tim in the future!”
“Anna was a great sitter for my pup! She took great care of her, gave regular updates, and was easy to coordinate pickup/dropoff with. Highly recommend.”
“John and Parker are excellent host. Cooper definitely enjoys when he can stay with these great guys. John's service and communication is fantastic. I will use his service again .”
“Above and beyond! Kanade took such excellent care of my dog, and she looked truly happy in the copious amount of pictures that were provided. Kanade asked questions for clarification of care, send a daily recap of how my dog was, and completely put me at ease during my trip. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a dogsitter.”
“Stephen and his family have fully adopted Finn into their home. Finn gets so excited to go visit them and enjoys every minute of being there (I can tell with all the photos I receive while he stays). I am so thankful to have found them!”
“Ginger was amazing with Penny! Penny can be a bit anxious when staying with new people but she made her feel right at home from the start. She sent regular updates and made sure she had plenty of exercise. I felt really comfortable leaving penny with her and would highly recommend her to others!”

Hi, Stacey and Anthony, both took well care of Nando, Nando is a French Shepard 80lbs, and not neutered, gets along with females, not so much with males or cats... they have both. No issues or problems and pictures to see him discovering the fenced in yard. I look forward to using them again in the near future... Thank you!
I am very happy that my husband and I decided to leave our baby Thor with Danielle. We could tell by the numerous pictures she sent us, that Thor was well taken care of, and Really enjoyed being there. Especially since he found a new best bud in Danielle's dog. I would recommend Danielle to anyone who's looking to board their dog.
I couldn't be happier with the care Yajaira provided for my dog, Baxter. He stayed with her for two weeks while we were away, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Communication was excellent, and she was always responsive and helpful. When we picked Baxter up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. It's such a relief to know you can travel without worrying about your pet. I highly recommend Yajaira and would gladly trust her with Baxter again.
So happy Karleigh was available to watch Dingo again (: He had such a great time as always and had fun with their pup Noodle and was calm and relaxed when we picked him. He really loved staying with them at their new house with a wonderful fenced in big backyard. Perfect setup for him to feel safe and comfortable. She sent us pictures, videos, and updates which was really sweet and we were not worried about him at all. Outstanding sitter! Will definitely book her again. They are the best. Highly recommend (:
Kaila was such a wonderful sitter for my girl GG. She made sure GG was the only dog she was watching because GG can be picky about other dogs. She sent me daily updates, even shared concerns about GG licking herself sore at her elbow, and had it treated and healed before I even got back. I could tell from the photos that GG was happy and felt comfortable and well cared for. She provided pick up and delivery service as well which was super helpful in the middle of travel planning. I hope any time I plan a trip, Kaila is available and able to take care of her while I am away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Blackwood is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $56 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 3,110 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Blackwood. About 90% of Blackwood 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 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.
