“I am so grateful Vanessa was able to watch our dog, Charlie. Charlie is my baby and I was very anxious to leave her with a sitter over the 4th of July as Charlie hates fireworks. Vanessa was a gem and stayed home and comforted Charlie, which made me feel so much better about having to be gone over the holiday for work. Vanessa also stayed on top of Charlie’s med regime (2x/day) and handled Charlie’s issues with ease! Thank you Vanessa!”

“Waylyn enjoyed her time with Sulyema and Luna this weekend! She got to go to the dog park and got sooo many steps in! I received lots of photos, which are my favorite while away from my baby. Would definitely let her stay again on my next weekend away!”
“Randi is amazing! We feel lucky to have found someone who loves Cosmo as much as we do. She is so great with him and we can tell he loves spending time with her. She has great communication which helps us feel at ease whenever we’re away from our fur baby.”

About: I have always been so passionate about dogs and taking care of dogs. Growing up I volunteered at a local shelter (shout out to Best Friends Animal Shelter! Also where I adopted my dog!) and absolutely loved it. I have always found such fulfillment and joy taking care of dogs and I feel truly confident I am a great dog sitter. I am also the main caretaker for my dog Bode (pictured in the profile pic!) and have taken care of friends and family’s doggies whenever was needed. From training and playing, to grooming and bathing, I am your girl! I am currently a student from home and a yoga instructor so I am flexible! I would be open to discussing any scheduling requests with you :) My goal as a dog sitter is to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for the pets in my client’s home. I will be sure to follow any instructions as to feeding routines as well as ensure there is always fresh water accessible for them. I love any playtime/physical activity as well such as playing fetch and going on walks. I am totally equipped to handle any bathroom situation your pet has as well as being able to monitor their bathroom break needs. Any health care needs as well will be taken very seriously, whether it’s giving medication, changing bandages, or providing any treatments I ensure the pet’s health needs are met! I will keep a close eye for any signs of distress or disconcerting behavior and be sure to notify the owner promptly. Lastly, I offer companionship and comfort to these pets in the absence of their owners.
“Andrea was communicative and conscientious. Her detailed questions before the stay were reassuring in that I could see she was serious about providing the best care possible. She was understanding when my dog had some health issues during the stay. Thank you Andrea!”

“Absolutely amazing sitters! Extremely professional and considerate. I was nervous to leave my dog with new people but they offered a meet and greet days in advanced, had me complete a questionnaire on his feeding, preferences, quirks etc. And provided me with daily updates including pictures. I was able to travel at ease knowing he was in safe hands. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Snickers.”


About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs, whether it’s my sister’s or my cousin’s dog. As a nurse, I already have the compassion and caretaking qualities. If you’ll entrust your best friend to me, I’ll give them plenty of love and care. I’m a night shift nurse working three shifts a week. I’m always trying to take advantage of the daytime to catch some sun- hopefully your dog will join me in those times on a sweet stroll. A firm believer in touching grass, I’d dedicate my stretches of days off when I’m not working to take your furfriend out for some much deserved playtime! I live in an apartment that is dog friendly. My home has plenty of space albeit a one-bedroom unit. There is a security system built into place as well.
“Because of Susan, a wonderful human being, a loving dog sitter - we were able to enjoy our long trip. I never imagined leaving my baby with a sitter because he is a picky eater and a spoiled dog. This was his first time in 6 years without us. But I was not worried because Pluto was in good hands. All the pictures, videos and updates Susan sent - gave me satisfaction and I was relaxed knowing that my baby was enjoying as well. Her dog, Franky is also very nice. Frankly gave Pluto a brotherly company during the stay. I’m happy that I found someone who can love my furry baby as much as I do -when I’m away. Thank you Susan!”

“Sarah and Danny treated Charlie Wonderfully. She is a shy girl and they were really good with her. They even got her to eat all her food. I will definitely use them again.”


“I’ve been using Iliana for the past several trips for my baby Malcolm, she is phenomenal and I can tell how much she cares for him like he’s her own baby! I feel so confident leaving him with her”


“Mercedes is an exceptional dog sitter who provided our dog with a delightful stay on short notice. Her genuine affection for dogs and the beautiful surroundings make her an excellent choice for dog boarding. I highly recommend her services.”


“Doug was amazing. My frenchie can be a handful and Doug took exceptional care of him-sent pics and videos without me having to ask. We will definitely use Doug again! Highly recommend!”

“Jessy did an amazing job and was so attentive to my cat and proactively shared daily messages, photos, videos to show how she was doing. My cat bonded with her quickly, which was such a relief, especially given can be reticent around new people. I’ve had such peace of mind and I’m so glad that my cat was so well taken care of. I will definitely use her again to watch my cat!”

“We had such a great experience with Julie! She took amazing care of my dog and was wonderful with giving my dog her medication. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending us lots of videos and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was very kind, attentive, and caring, and it was clear my dog was very comftorable and happy with her. We definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”

“Thank you, Beautifull, for taking such incredible care of my dogs! I am forever grateful for everything you did while I was away. She cared for my two senior dogs for an entire week and kept me updated every step of the way. She sent me photos during their walks and regularly checked in with updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Whenever anything came up, she let me know right away. Since my dogs are seniors, they experienced some anxiety being away from home and even had a little stomach upset, which can happen when they’re stressed. She handled everything with so much patience, care, and compassion, and made sure I was informed throughout the entire stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their well-being and treated them like they were her own. Knowing they were in such loving hands allowed me to truly enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about them. I trust her completely and will absolutely book with her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, communicative, compassionate, and truly loves animals, I cannot recommend her enough. Your pets will be in amazing hands!”

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with Georgia and all of her quirks. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cared about Georgia’s happiness and well-being. She took Georgia on lots of adventures, kept her active and engaged, and even spoiled her with treats and bones purchased out of her own pocket. Jessica truly went above and beyond throughout the stay. She was attentive, communicative, and always happy to provide updates whenever I asked. Knowing Georgia was in such caring hands gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jessica again, and I’m confident Georgia would be thrilled to stay with her in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up caring for many different types of dogs, from puppies to rescues. Most recently, I had the privilege of caring for a my favorite fella, a collie, until his final days as a senior at 16 years old. Since his passing I have not yet rescued another baby, but I spend time volunteering as a Level 2 Dog Companion at ACC. I have completed Fear Free Trainings with the Shelter as well as various other trainings that involve caring for, navigating, and managing more complicated dog behaviors that include leash reactivity, dog reactivity, fear and anxiety, shyness, among others. Notes about my specific availability: Wednesday and Thursday: from 3-6pm only and intermittently Friday, Saturday, and Sunday: 11am -3pm only I just finished my doctoral degree and teach part-time. My teaching schedule typically resides Mon - Thursday at varying times. I spend much of the rest of my free time working at home or taking walks in the city. When caring for a visiting dog, I devote the majority of my time engaging with them. I do not have a yard and live in an apartment. I have taken the extra effort to provide toys, and a bed for visiting friends. I am attentive to potential hazards and take the extra effort to dog proof before a visitor. The few small plants that I have are pet safe, and I only use pet safe products in my home.

The median cost per night for dog boarding in Cliffside Park is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cliffside Park
Jessica and her boyfriend were so friendly and very responsive throughout the whole boarding for my dog and my brother's dog. She sent daily photos and thoughtful updates, which was much appreciated. Communicating with them was such a breeze and I'm thankful they were both flexible and accommodating when I had a delay on my flight back home!

Bridget was just the best with my little guy. He has health issues and some anxiety and she was so accommodating. Additionally it was a nice treat for him to have the company of her dog, who was wonderful with him. It’s everything to know that when you have to leave your dog he’s in such good hands.

Euitae was great and next time we're in NYC I hope he's available to take care of our golden retriever. He was kind, caring, very responsive, sent occasional updates, followed feeding instructions, and provided excellent care overall. Five stars for Euitae (pronounced You-Tay, like Utah but with an 'ay').

Alicia was absolutely wonderful with Loki and Atlas! She was patient, caring, and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout their stay, which meant so much to me. Loki can take a little time to warm up to new people, so seeing how comfortable he became with her made me incredibly happy. She was also very understanding and accommodating when my pickup plans changed unexpectedly. I felt like my babies were safe and well cared for, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! ❤️

Racquel's great! She was super responsive, and quick about setting up a meet and greet despite our last minute request. I really appreciate the time she took to talk with us, and the photos/updates she gave while we were away. I would book again and so should you! :)

Vera was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Apollo! This was my first time leaving him with her, and from the beginning I felt completely comfortable and at ease. I gave her instructions about his routine, medications, and care, and she followed everything exactly as I asked. She kept in touch with me every day while I was away and sent pictures of Apollo on his walks, which really gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and being well taken care of. It was clear that Vera genuinely cared about him and treated him like he was her own. I would 100% recommend Vera to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring to take care of their pet. I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much, Vera, for taking such great care of Apollo! ❤️🐾

Eileen took such good care of Denver. It was like his home away from home, she communicated and sent pictures while he was with her and even sent home print outs which were so cute . She was also flexible with the pick up and drop off times which we really appreciated since it was a last minute book. Denver was happy, we were happy and we will definitely book again!!

We had such a great experience with Julie! She took amazing care of my dog and was wonderful with giving my dog her medication. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending us lots of videos and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

Laura is a GEM. Our pup is highly anxious and requires loads of TLC (and some medications). Laura and her sweet pup, Vella, went above and beyond to make sure our fur baby was comfortable, calm, and happy! Laura is responsive and respectful, and we received daily updates with photos of the dogs walking, playing, cuddling, etc. We will absolutely be booking with Laura in the future- and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cliffside Park on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 14,138 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cliffside Park. 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.
96% of Cliffside Park 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 Cliffside Park 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 Cliffside Park 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 Cliffside Park.
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 Cliffside Park 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.
