“Darien was amazing with my dog Mia! She sent so many pictures and Mia seemed instantly comfortable with Darien and her husband. 10/10 would recommend Darien and will be using her again!”
“We just had our second stay with Tracy and Steven and we couldn’t be happier that we chose them as our dog’s trusted caregivers! They are so sweet, flexible and are so loving towards dogs! Looking forward to continue using them!”
“I was so nervous to drop off my newly rescued small Chiweenie and Geoff and Jenny did such a good job caring for him with so much love. Super friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait for him to go back to another doggy daycare day!”
“Digdem is amazing!! After another Rover sitter cancelled on us at the last minute, she agreed to take our 9 year old, anxious, Weimaraner last minute on Thanksgiving Day! She was so accommodating and sent frequent updates throughout the day. We are so grateful to have found her and can’t wait to use her again. Very highly recommend!!”
“Lily loves going to Amanda’s house. She goes weekly for daycare and when we go on vacation for longer stays. We trust Amanda like she’s Lily’s second mom :). Lily gets a lot of love and attention and we’re so grateful to her and her husband Max (Lily’s best friend).”
“I can’t say enough good things about Marcy’s Dog Daycare! From the moment I dropped my dog off for his first visit, I knew he was in great hands. Marcy is incredibly kind, professional, and has such a deep love for animals—it’s clear she’s not just doing this as a business, but because she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. Not only did Koda have a blast playing with other dogs, but he came home exhausted (in the best way possible!) and with a huge smile on his face. I could tell he had been well taken care of and treated like part of the family. I would highly recommend Marcy’s Dog Daycare to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and reliable place to leave their pet. It’s such a relief to know that my dog is not only cared for but actually enjoys his time there. I will definitely be bringing Koda back!”
“Outstanding service! I needed a last-minute backup sitter when our regular sitter wasn't available. Karen responded -and continued to respond throughout our interaction- immediately and thoughtfully. She asked excellent questions at our "meet-n-greet" and our pup immediately warmed to her and her well-kept home. I wasn't able to tell her exactly when I would be back to pick up due to lack of cell service but she took it in stride and replied "No problem" when I was finally able to communicate. Karen is new to this site and I'm confident she will be racking up 5-star reviews in no time. I will definitely use her again and tell my friends.”
“Yuberkis took such great care of my sweet Boy!! She provided pictures and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Manuel is awesome! He took great care of Harley and is a great communicator. He is super friendly and you can tell he loves dogs. I look forward to leaving Harley with him next time.”
“Jinghong is a very caring sitter. My dog Bacon fell in love with her starting from meet and greet. Bacon was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. It was obvious he was happy and comfortable during his stay. Thank you for treating him with such care—I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to others!”
About: Hi! I’m Marina, a dancewear designer and a proud mom to a lovable 6-year-old dog. My love for animals brings me so much happiness, and I truly enjoy their company! I am mainly working in dance industry but do have part time to spend with dogs since I have my own and i have a lot of friends that have pets I just love to cuddle with them, walk them and play. I will prioritize the unique needs of each animal, recognising that every pet is special and deserves tailored care. I strive to create a comforting and personalized experience, ensuring that every pet feels valued and well- cared for.
“I had such a good feeling about Desi and Mimi, and I was not disappointed at all! They took amazing care of my little boy and made sure he had the best time playing and socializing with the other pups. They sent me photos while he was there, which made me so happy and gave me so much peace of mind. Their communication was great, and I really appreciated how they listened to all of my concerns. When I picked him up, he actually went back to say goodbye, which was so funny because he has never done that with anyone before! That alone told me he had an amazing time. I’ll definitely be bringing him back, not just when I need a sitter, but just so he can have a fun day. I highly recommend them! Desi and Mimi, thank you so much for treating my pup like your own!”
“Cinthia was amazing with Koda. She was very communicative and provided regular updates throughout the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog and knowing he was in good hands. Would totally recommend leveraging cinthia if you have the opportunity.”

“Alicia was so amazing with GG she went out of her way to make sure All the care instructions were done it was a pleasure talking with her she’s super sweet I feel very comfortable having GG stay with her and I would definitely highly recommend her.”
“Valerie was great with Ophelia. She got her outside a lot so she could sniff to her heart's content. Saw her first deer! Great communication. Thanks for taking such good care of our pup!”
“My fiancé and I have never taken our dog to a dog sitter before. It was our first time leaving our Sasha girl with someone other than a family member, and we were so nervous to use this app, but Rocío has definitely changed our minds. Rocío was so sweet, gentle and patient with Sasha upon meeting her for the first time. She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures of Sasha playing in the yard, which put our minds at ease. The constant communication and updates gave us the reassurance that Sasha was in good hands. When I picked her up, I can tell that Sasha wasn’t anxious to see me or leave, like she normally is when we leave her alone for a few hours. Rocío said Sasha did really well for her it being her first time with a dog sitter and it filled my heart. Rocío and her family are so nice and welcoming. You can tell they have a genuine love for animals. We will definitely be using this service again! Thank you so much for everything!”
About: I spent the past 4 years running a successful dog-watching business in NYC with my partner. We have since relocated to Northern NJ and intend to provide the same high quality services for pets here. I grew up with animals - dogs, rabbits, birds, mice, turtles and fish. I would’ve had cats too if members of my family weren’t so allergic. As a teen I volunteered with friends at our local animal shelter and chose to work with the cat population because most of the volunteers wanted to walk the dogs. Most recently I trained my own dog - starting from when she was 6 weeks old. I used a combination of training techniques (including crate training) to successfully potty-train her, teach her to walk on a leash and eventually teach her to hike and run together off-leash. My dog is now 3 years old and I bring her to my grandmother’s assisted living facility. She interacts with and plays appropriately with other dogs, pets, adults and children of all ages. She is a secure dog and adaptable to any environment. I believe my dog’s calm and friendly demeanor is a direct reflection of my skills. I’m prepared to handle dogs across the spectrum of sizes and energy levels. I live close to many beautiful parks and trails, some with dedicated areas for dog-play. I will closely follow any instructions you have for feeding, exercising, sleeping and socializing your precious pet. I work part-time from home and set my own schedule so I am able to dedicate the appropriate time and attention to your pet easily. I will treat your pet like part of my family if they stay with me. I have a very calming presence that animals seem to react really well too. I am happy to watch your pet at your place if that works best. I provide an engaging, safe environment no matter the location.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Grove
I couldn't have asked for a better first Rover experience! We just moved to the area, and my dog, Jinx, began to bark when left alone. I was nervous about leaving her with someone new for the first time (she is 13 and has never been left in a new environment). This was a last-minute booking, and it couldn't have gone better. Jinx was so comfortable from the start, and it was clear she received so much love and attention. The sitter and her son spent time cuddling with her, and she looked genuinely happy and relaxed. Knowing she was so well cared for gave me complete peace of mind. I would absolutely book with them again!
Megan is the best! My dog is definitely not the simplest dog to take care of, but she made sure my dog felt super comfortable and happy. She sent me plenty of photos to keep me updated and made sure to ask all the right questions to make sure my dog was well taken care of. Genuinely the best dog sitting experience I’ve had!
Geetesh was great with my dog, Leo. He took really good care of Leo, and sent pictures and videos throughout the day - which I appreciated so much! He is a dog lover and thoughtfully asks about your pup’s routine and habits so that he can provide the care that the pet needs. His pup and his kid are super friendly and adorable too (:
We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She took such great care of our Frenchie, Mazie, and kept us updated with regular photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mazie was in good hands. When we picked her up, she looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
Darien is incredible! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She will care for your pet like her own. Kind, compassionate and loving toward our dog. Darien is very flexible and reliable, which made our Thanksgiving gathering less stressful for the day. Thank you Darien for making life a bit easier during the Holidays!
Pooja was amazing with my Harlem. We did doggy daycare for two days and she kept me updated via message with all of his activity in any questions that she had. It’s hard to trust anyone to watch your dog, but her proactive communication & effort that she took to take care of him reassured me that he was in good hands and was having the time of his life! I’m so happy with the exceptional care that Pooja provided for Harlem and would rebook her again! Harlem says thank you!!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Cedar Grove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Cedar Grove on Rover is $55.5 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 11,305 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Cedar Grove. 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 Cedar Grove 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,305 sitters in Cedar Grove, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
