“Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.”
“Eunice took excellent care of Cappy during the three days we were away! She kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell she read my notes about Cappy’s care. Cappy also had a wonderful time with Eunice’s family and her dog, Pincky! I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”
“Our dog Monster had a fantastic stay with Michelle. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her family for 9 days while we were away. She provided multiple updates throughout our trip, and it was easy to tell Monster was having a great time. Highly recommend!”
“I heard about Melanie from a friend. I’m so glad that my pup’s stay worked out while i was on vacation. This is my first time using Rover and i was a little bit nervous. Melanie was fantastic. She’s so calm and provided a perfect structure for my anxious dog. She is a very responsive communicator. I would definitely use her again.”
“Vanessa watched my Frenchie while I was on a long vacation and she couldn’t have been more accommodating and attentive. She sent lots of pictures each day, checked in before she gave him a new treat which I really appreciated, and kept us in the loop on how he was eating and how his walks were. It was wildly hot when she watched him and she was mindful of keeping his walks short and limiting his exposure to the blacktop. She has experience with Brachycephalic dogs which made me even more comfortable leaving my Frenchie with her. I recommend her and already have plans to book her in the future!”
“Amanda was very communicative and took great care of my dog for a long weekend! I got regular updates, and he seemed to get along well with Amanda’s dog too. I would happily leave my dog with her again.”
“I was so happy i fpund Bonnie and her husbad , they really took care of my 2 dogs. They treat them as their own. They give them extra care and attention. I highly recommend Bonnie. Nothing to worry if you leave them at their care. Will surely leave my babies again .”
“Winston had another wonderful stay with Marlene for 5 overnights. Marlene's communication is excellent and we are so thankful to how attentive she is to our Winston while he is in her care. Marlene provides daily updates and pictures of Winston and it means the world to us!”
“First time leaving my fur babies with a stranger. Jordy and girlfriend made this experience so easy for me. He is very easy to work with, his communication skills is top-notch and every photo he sent of my fur babies, they looked happy and thriving. He also sends pictures as well. 10/10 WILL RECOMMEND!!! Jordy you got a customer for life 💯😊 Will be booking again when need be!”
“Tiara was wonderful with our cat. Her cats welcomed ours to their family and appeared to have a good time together. Constantly provided with uodates as well so I knew everything was going well.”
“If we could give Na ten stars we would , and she'd have earned every one. If you are at all nervous about boarding your dog, Na is the person you should use. She will literally make your dog a member of her family while you're away, and the family all participate in his or her stay. She only takes one dog at a time. She'll focus on your dogs routine and make sure all your directions are followed. Our dog is on a very specific diet and medication and Na followed our instructions perfectly. She adds her own creativity to make your dogs stay a real vacation. Including picnics , book reading before bed, long walks and plenty of supervised yard play. Every few hours you'll get updates on your dog's activities in pictures. As much as we were happy to bring Lola home , It was hard knowing how much fun she was having. We actually made a slide show of Lola's stay and watched before we looked at our vacation pictures!”
“Jillian and Andrew did a great job watching my dog while I was away for 8 days! They sent pictures almost every day so that I knew he was doing well and getting lots of attention. I would definitely recommend using them.”
“Jennifer is so great with Brioche. She is kind and patient and takes the best pictures, letting me know Brioche loves being in her care. Brioche is a tough dog, due to his special needs but Jennifer is someone id trust him with 10x over. Thank you!”
“Veronica looked after our 2 cats very well. She kept me updated on their day-to-day activities and eating habits. Our cats got along very well with her cats as well. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chatham
It was such a pleasure meeting Natalie! She was so sweet and capable, Shayla took to her and her son Ben almost immediately. I felt confident with her right off the bat. She sent daily updates and pics, I couldn’t ask for more, really. But it was the quality of care that I noticed and my pup was returned to me a happy dog.
We always pick up a happy pup after a stay at Shaun’s. He and his family love on our dog just like we do and we always look forward to the pics and updates each day of the adventures they’re having. 5 star stay every time and we already have our next night booked. Thank you Shaun and family!
Vanessa and Kayla were amazing! They took such great care of our dog Biscotti and sent us so many updates and photos while we were away, which we really appreciated. It made us feel so much better knowing she was in such good hands. We would definitely use them again!

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 Chatham 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 Chatham home-away-from-home, 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 Chatham.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Chatham 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 , 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 .
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.
