“Geoff and Jenny did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Morgan. They took him out to walk for up to 5 miles, and had plenty of interaction between him and there 3 or dogs. Morgan is a Labrador retriever and weighs about 95 lbs. He fell in love with a small female dog and played well with him. He stayed for about a month while my wife and I stayed in Japan and then the Philippines. Geoff and Jenny sent many photos and videos through Whats.app. We sent a video of myself and two grandaughters (11 and 13 years) telling Morgan than we miss him and will be back in a couple of weeks. The sitters then showed a video of Morgan while they listened to the video. It was priceless. I recommend to use Geoff and Jenny as sitters with no reservations.”
“I was a bit skeptical using Rover, and a bit nervous to leave Dilon. Paloma explained the process and was very helpful. I loved that Dilon stayed in good hands and I was able to have peace of mind. Paloma kept me informed of Dilon’s day to day, she would answer promptly to the messages and would also send pictures regularly. Thank you again for taking good care of Dilon.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Maisha was an amazing sitter for my pup! She restored my trust in the Rover platform after a couple of not so pleasant experiences…and he smelled amazing at pickup! I received morning and nightly updates with pics. Will definitely book again!!”
“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”

“We were so happy to have found Jess. We were apprehensive in leaving our fur baby but she set was able to ease our minds. She followed our care instructions to a tee and sent us updates and pictures throughout the visit. This really helped us to see and know she was taking just as good of care as we would. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.”
“We were so delighted with the care our pup Coach received during his stay with Enis. It is always a bit nerve wracking trying a new pet sitter, but I could tell from the photos that Coach was relaxed and happy and well exercised too! When it was time to go home he was happy to see me, but he was happy to be around Enis as well, which I take as a great sign. We will definitely book with Enis again.”

Her home is very inviting and warm , and she insured he would be just fine. I was relaxed and not stressed at all about leaving him there. Would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Darien was an amazing help with AJ. She took great care of him and provided me with pictures and videos everyday. You can tell she enjoys what she does. She is professional and makes sure she understands how to care for your dog. I liked the fact that she had a call with me to get to know who AJ was. This meant a lot as I knew she wanted to make sure he had a great time. I will definitely use her again. I trust her with my pet. She groomed AJ and he smelt soooooo good.”

Angela provided regular updates with photos and videos, ensuring my peace of mind. My shy dog quickly warmed up to them, and all his dietary and exercise needs were perfectly met. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. Highly recommend Angela for reliable and loving pet care.”
“Kathy and Ben were such hospitable hosts to our doggo! She is not the easiest puppy to handle, and they were sweet, patient and went above and beyond for her.

Marcy and her family were so sweet to my boys! I was so nervous leaving my two dachshunds with a Rover for the first time but Marcy was very reassuring, confident, knowledgeable and communicative! I received multiple pictures and updates throughout their stay and I will absolutely be booking again. Thank you for being so good to Otis and Rufus! ❤️
We had a wonderful experience! From the beginning, he made us feel comfortable leaving our dog in his care. He kept us updated, let us know he was settling in well, and it was so reassuring to hear he was hanging out with the other dogs and doing great. You can tell Enis genuinely care about the dogs he look after. We really appreciated the updates, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly recommend!
Oscar was SO EXCITED to go over to Pete's house - I swear, he figured out what was happening 10 minutes beforehand, and waited by the back door for us to let him out. He flew into the house without so much of a backwards glance. Oscar spent several hours with Pete and when he came back home, he was happy and exhausted!! Little snuggle bug went right to sleep. Thank you for keeping him busy and happy, Pete!!!

This was my first Rover experience and it could not have been better. Ashley sent photos of my dog throughout my trip away, so I was never worried. Ashley was incredible, attentive, and so communicative. I would definitely reccomend this service, as well as Ashley, to anyone!
Kora was beyond well cared for with Valerie, I could not have been happier she was available. Valerie asked all the right questions to understand Kora and her needs and made her very comfortable. From the 1st pic 2 hours after drop off I could see how comfortable and happy she was. Valerie's communication was great before and during the stay, it's clear she loves animals. If Valerie is available do not hesitate to book her, made me feel comfortable quickly that Kora would be cared for well

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clifton on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,883 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clifton. 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.
95% of Clifton 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 Clifton 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 Clifton 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 Clifton.
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 Clifton 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.
