“Kerri and Harry were great with our 12 year old lab, Lacey. They arranged a meet and great prior to booking to make sure that our pup would be ok with their cats. They were responsive and sent updates while we were away. Lacey came home very tired and happy! We will absolutely book with them again in the future!”
“Wendy and Dan took wonderful care of my Ivy! They kept me updated with messages and pictures while I was on my trip. They were so loving and patient with her. I will definitely have Ivy stay with them when I travel!”
“Ryan was our 1st experience using Rover, or any boarding service. We have a very large very anxious 3yr old dog, and Ryan made the experience smooth and worry free for myself & my dog. He sent great photos showing how relaxed & happy my dog was while we were away, which my whole family loved to see. Highly recommended using Ryan for any services he offers.”
“Katie and Rooney were really great with my nervous dog, Otis. It was great to see all the pictures she sent and we will definitely book a stay with her again soon!”
“Samantha was great. Very attentive to our dog and his needs and provided regular updates. Her dog cocoa was also very sweet. Would recommend to anyone in the area”
“Jeffrey was extremely responsive to my questions and wrote every day with updates and photos. He was patient with Papaya's anxiety, and madensure she ate, even if it meant offering her handfuls of food at a time. It's the first time we left our sweet goofy girl with someone, but it felt good to know she was in such good hands. Thank you, Jeffrey!”
“Our experience with Kathleen was fantastic; from setting up our meet & greet and throughout Coopers stay. Kathleen sent daily updates & was easy to communicate with, always responding quickly. We will continue to rebook!”
“Tao has a calm confidence that puts both people and pets at ease. During our dog’s 9-night stay, Tao provided us with daily photo and video updates. And lucky dog, she got to swim in the pool! Thank you, Tao!”
“Camila and Omar were fantastic with my Blue. They sent so many pictures it made us feel at ease. Blue seemed to have a good time and made some new friends. Will definitely use them in the future.”
“Theresa and her family watched our two senior dogs for 4 days while my family took a much needed trip to visit family over a holiday weekend. They provided a loving home and treated our dogs like part of their family and even got them in on their evening treat routine with their own dogs :) We received updates and pictures each day and we could tell they felt right at home and were more at ease than being in a kennel. Theresa will be the first one we check with next time we need someone to look after our pups!”
“Kim took in our older girl, Fu, for an extended stay during a very difficult time for us. She was flexible, so amazingly caring and always gave us updates and pics. She won over Fu’s heart, which was no small feat, and gave her a loving and happy home away from home. Kim is amazing even with a finicky old girl like ours and has my most heartfelt praise and highest recommendation. ❤️”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Michael & Loraine! It was our first time leaving Bomi with someone outside of family, and they were so patient, kind, and reassuring from the start — answering all our questions and even inviting us to see their clean, spacious home before booking. While we were away, they kept in touch with thoughtful updates and photos, and it was clear Bomi was happy, comfortable, and loved like family. We’re so grateful for their care, attention, and kindness, and would absolutely trust them with Bomi again. Highly recommend!”
“Finley and Luna love staying at Marla’s. We love getting pictures when we are away so we can rest easy knowing our dogs are in good hands. This is the 3rd or 4th time they have stayed here and they always come back tired from playing in the yard with their great dog! Thank you so much we feel great knowing we have you as back up when we are not around.”
“Ana was an absolute pleasure to work with! From the very first message she was warm, friendly, and super responsive. Communication was excellent the entire time — she kept us updated with photos and check-ins so we never had to wonder how the pups were doing. Our dogs clearly had a fantastic time with her. They came home happy, relaxed, and tired in the best way. It’s obvious Ana genuinely loves dogs and knows how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time boarding my 11 month old puppy. They were wonderful with her, she enjoyed herself and they frequently sent pictures of her so I wouldn’t be worried.”
“Lauren and family took great care of my little girl. She is a rambunctious German shepherd and they took to her well. Sent me updates/pics, and were very responsive when I sent a message. Would absolutely repeat.”
“Zoey was wonderful with our two dogs. She updated me with pics throughout the stay and gave adorable report cards when I picked up. I highly recommend her for watching your four legged kiddos!”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Byram can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Byram 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 Byram.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Byram. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Byram 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
