“Adrianna was great. She kept in touch with a handful of photos over the two weeks she was sitting for me and she feel in love with my Chloe. If we need a sitter in the future I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

“We had an amazing experience booking with Juliana! Juliana opened her home and welcomed our Simon for one week. Automatically, there was a sense of kindness and warmth upon leaving Simon with her as we left for vacation. Juliana messaged us daily sharing with us Simon's day, along with pictures of him as well. This act of kindness and thoughtfulness touched our hearts for we missed him immensely! Knowing that Simon was safe , cared for with warmth and attention , allowed us to enjoy our time away from him without worry. We highly recommend Juliana for anyone that needs care for their beloved pets. 10/10 stars!!”

“Cindy was very flexible with scheduling and allowing Duke to have a meet and greet prior to our scheduled boarding. Cindy also shared photos and videos during the stay.”

About: I love taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood and the park there's nothing like getting fresh air and sunshine with your four legged friends I am a sahm so I am very flexible My kids are all in school during the day so I'm free on short notice for walks and feedings I am careful to not cause any messes I'll feed and take your dog out with a sense of ease and peace of mind knowing they are in good hands

“Angela was so great! She was very flexible in scheduling and drop off/pick up. She had a great set up that was clean & access to a dog park in a safe neighborhood. Raff had some buddies to play with no issues and got good socialization in which I really appreciated. She kept me updated via message and included the cutest pictures of Raff and his new friends! I definitely hope to book with Angela in the future and highly recommend her!”


About: I’m looking for extra income and I figured what better way than to do something I love and enjoy, caring for and playing with fur babies! I have always had a dog from the time I was little and even now I have a 3 fur babies of my own. I see animals as our family, not just a pet. Our fur babies and fur ever friends are very important and deserve the best care which I’m willing to provide! I will follow all of the owners instructions, be patient and kind with your pet, and make them as happy and comfortable as possible! I look forward to helping with the care of your special fur baby! For now I am only offering drop ins and walks but plan to offer boarding at a later time. I’m open to meet and greets if that is something that would make the process more comfortable for both the owner and pet.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my entire life. I can’t help but love on dogs. They have so much to offer and live so deeply. I work full time during the week. Once I’m home and on weekends I am all about loving on my own Willow! We love to play and go for walks as much as possible. Usually by bedtime we are both exhausted. I do not have a fenced yard but we live in a quiet development. Since we are in the back it is safe. Dogs can have free roam of the house if they are potty trained. We do have small area sectioned off for our own pup that we can use if not potty trained. Our own pup is crated trained and in her crate when we aren’t there as well as at night. We prefer the same.
About: Hi, I'm Shania! If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, you've come to the right place. — I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with a dog and a cat of my own, and my family has frequently cared for friends' pets while they were away. Those experiences taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. — I currently have a dog; his name is Sport, and he is 15 years old, so I understand how important patience, gentle care, and consistency are–especially with senior pets. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles and naps, I'm happy to match their pace and make them feel comfortable. — When your pet is with me, they won't just be "watched." They'll receive lots of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and making them feel safe and happy is always my top priority. — I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I'll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your trip knowing they're in good hands. — I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! ❤️ 📆 I'm currently a full-time college student, but I carefully schedule my availability to ensure every pet receives the time and attention they deserve. • Fridays and weekends are completely open for bookings. • During the summer, I'm available throughout the week as well. From 8 am to 10:30 pm. • I never overbook because I want every pet to receive personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention. If you have questions about scheduling or special requests, feel free to message me! My neighborhood is quiet, safe, and very walkable, with plenty of grassy areas perfect for walks, sniffing adventures, and exercise. Your pet's comfort and safety always come first. I'll make sure they have a calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks or your cat prefers lounging in a sunny spot, I'll make sure they have a comfortable stay.

“Tony is my standard pet sitter for Nova! He sends pictures and videos throughout her stay and she loves to play with the small pups he owns. She will be back! Thanks Tony!”


“Madeline is awesome! Our first stay with her was seamless! It was my first time leaving my dog for so long with an unfamiliar person but Madeline made us both feel so comfortable and at ease! She sent plenty of pics each day and lots of updates. Will book again!”


“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”

“Bryce was available on short notice and remained responsive over DMs throughout our interactions. I got lots of photos and updates on Wallace during his stay. I would recommend anyone to place their pet in Bryce's cade.”

“Hali did a great job taking care of Bonnie. I’m always nervous leaving my dog with another caregiver. Hali did everything she could put me at ease including sending me multiple pictures a day showing me the Bonnie was doing well. She had a nice big backyard for Bonnie to play in. Her children played very sweetly with Bonnie. I would be happy to let Bonnie stay there again.”

“Donte did an excellent job looking after our two dogs and cat during the holiday weekend. The drop-off process was seamless, and he maintained good communication before, during, and for the pickup. Will definitely book again.”

About: I have cared for animals all my life. We've had cats, dogs, guinea pigs and hamsters. I have also volunteered at 2 animal shelters. I am newly retired. I play with my 4 cats every night with a laser toy and I also have a rod with a toy on the end of it that they love to play with. They all like to sit on my bed and watch TV with me. My cats help give me purpose. I treat them like my children. They all have different personalities that make me laugh! They are very affectionate.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clayton
Brooklyn was amazing as always! My dog Toby, who has separation anxiety, had a wonderful time even when he had a few whining episodes at night. She was so patient and sweet with him. When he came home, you can tell he felt loved the entire vacation. He ate, drank and slept like normal. He had a nice doggy vacation with Brooklyn and of course, we will definitely be booking again if needed. Thank you Brooklyn!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Clayton is $30 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $40 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 2,827 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Clayton. About 90% of Clayton 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.
