“We recently used Rover while we were away on vacation and couldn’t have been more pleased with the care our puppy, Bentley, received. Alejandra kept us updated every single day with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bentley seemed to have an amazing time playing with Cora and Lexi! At first, he wasn’t eating very well, and Alejandra reached out to ask if it would be okay to give him some shredded cheese to encourage him to eat. After that, he started eating again, and it truly made us feel at ease knowing how attentive and caring she was. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Bentley and went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. We are so grateful to have found Alejandra and absolutely look forward to leaving Bentley in her care again in the future!”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”
“Kamini, her family, and Pia are fantastic. Our dog stayed overnight and I received frequent updates (the right amount), lots of pictures, and great communication!! Even with this being the first time he stayed with them, I was comfortable and confident he was being treated as their own. He got along great with Pia, and we would definitely use Kamini again in the future. Highly recommend. 5 stars!”
“We were nervous about leaving our anxious, 2yr. old Bernadoodle, Rosie, with strangers, but Yanni's responsiveness and friendly nature put us at ease. Her home looked clean and well maintained. Throughout our weekend away, Yanni sent us updates with adorable photos, and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing she was in good hands. We appreciated that she was taken on several walks. While Rosie is not playful with other dogs and prefers humans, I'm glad that she had some time with Yanni's dogs. We would not hesitate to send Rosie there again, and we're grateful she has a place to go!”
“Max arrived an earthquake in an eclipse while in her care. Everything went wonderfully. He's such a sweet dog and had such a good time with all the other dogs. Everything really well. We're so happy to have our little dog back in such good condition.”
“Trista and Bill were excellent. My dog usually gets separation anxiety when away from me. But they managed to calm her down and settle down. This was only a short stay - 2 nights. But I expect to use their service again, for longer durations while I plan to do some traveling.”
“Our dogs were very well while staying at Vivian and Katia’s house. They followed all the instructions related to food, walks, etc and we received plenty of pictures during the days we were gone. Katia was very kind and sweet with the dogs and they look happy and resting calmly all the time.”
“Christina was awesome! She took care of Meeko like one of her own and I’m so appreciative of that. She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent us pictures. He will definitely be back to hangout with Bentley and Dixen!”
“Molly was very nervous about her first stay with a new sitter and was well taken care of! Vanessa is very responsive, kind, understanding, and sends lots of updates. She clearly has a lot of love for pups and even has her own toys and snacks for them. We have already booked her for our next trip!”
“I have a five-month-old puppy that Kevin kept overnight for me this past weekend. He sent me updates and pictures. Winchester came home very happy. I would definitely recommend Kevin for your pet sitting needs”
About: Hi there! I have 10+ years of experience as a dog and cat mom, along with 5+ years as a professional dog walker and caregiver. I absolutely love animals and take so much joy in giving them a safe, loving, and enriching experience while you’re away. Your dog won’t just be “watched” here - they’ll be on their own little adventure! I live on 900 acres of beautiful land and spend my days walking, hiking, and exploring with my dogs. It’s the perfect environment for pups who love fresh air, movement, and nature. I offer care in my home and am also happy to travel to pick up your dog for your convenience. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make their time here feel like a second home 🤍 I have a very flexible schedule and work remotely from home. The combination of my flexible schedule and working from home allows me the ability to come pick up your pup if needed, and host in my home! It is important for me to spend quality time with my pets and I would provide the same love and quality time with your fur-babies! We have a fenced in yard as well as 900 acres for leashed walks as well. Safety and security are very important to me when it comes to my pets, so it would be important for your babies as well. I like to keep an active lifestyle and spend a lot of time outdoors with my dogs. Your pup(s) would absolutely be included on these outdoor adventures! My goal is for your pet to have fun, and for you to have peace of mind while you're working or away.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! It is clear how much Joanne truly cares for animals. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and treated my dogs like her own. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups—and that peace of mind is priceless! She kept me updated, was easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely loving toward animals.”
“Mylene was wonderful with our puppy! She sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our little guy was in great hands. We felt completely comfortable and reassured throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Karina was an absolute gem! She gave me prompt and thorough updates about my puppy, and was so thoughtful and attentive throughout. She’s truly the perfect pet sitter! Thank you, Karina, we’ll definitely be back!”
“This was our first time using Chris and we were so thrilled that he took great care of our almost 14 yo dog Charlie. He sent a daily picture and comments as to how Charlie’s was doing. Charlie’s required daily eye drop and Chris readily complied without hesitation. We will surely use him again!”
“Carol and her family took exceptional care of our little guy Max. They loved him as if he was part of their own family. We were able to enjoy our vacation and not worry about Max knowing he was in their loving hands. Carol will be our first call anytime we need someone to watch him!”
“Tracey did such a great job taking care of my maltipoo.I was very nervous, having someone outside of a family member watch him.She was patient, kept me updated with photos. She put me at ease that he would be fine. I would recommend her!”
“Stan and Barbara took such great care of our dog for the week. They shared daily updates and pictures which we really enjoyed. We will definitely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Happy to have found them using Rover!”

Cant say Enough good things About Kim & Dean and their Family in taking care of our Dog Maizy!we like that they only take one dog at a time and are super accommodating and always communicate with you and update you about your dog! I would highly recommend to anyone! we will be using them again anytime we are out of town!
Jaylene is a wonderful and kind petsitter! She comes over to check on our two cats and has created a bond with both of them, despite them being shy sometimes. We have a Great Pyrenees mix that she boards in her home and we can tell he has a great time! Jaylene is always flexible, communicative, and super helpful. Thanks again, Jaylene!
My little 14 month old Shih-Poo, Buddy, is my family! With me, he pretty much has free reign and lots of love and attention. Through a chain of events, I was panicking about finding someone who would be able to watch him while I needed to be away. On Rover, it was a relief to read about Christina and Gregory who have 3 kids, pets are allowed on furniture and 18 years experience with dogs! They welcomed him with open arms, sent me pictures, and kept me updated on how things were going. I feel like I found a second home for Buddy. It was a wonderful experience for everyone. I highly recommend them!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Budd Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Budd Lake on Rover is $45.79 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 2,192 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Budd Lake. 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 Budd Lake 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 Budd Lake 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 Budd Lake 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 Budd Lake.
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 Budd Lake 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.
