“Amanda was incredibly kind, flexible and communicative. This was the very first time I have ever left my elderly dog with anyone outside of close family and I highly recommend Amanda and her family. I was able to take my trip without any stress whatsoever. Thank you Amanda!”
“Paloma was great! We had our fur baby on her hand for eight nights. Paloma updated everyday how he was doing during our travel with bunch of photos. Our puppy seem to be very happy on her hand. When we picked him up, he seemed to be so sad to be parted with her and refused to leave. He was healthy and happy when he came back home. I will definitely find her again when we have another occasion that we have to leave him behind.”
“John is a great Rover while he watched Pisco for a couple of days. He responds quickly, and we enjoyed his daily pics on how Pisco is doing. Thank you!”
“Very good dog sitter, my dog suffers from seasonal allergies. She was able to manage and treat my dog without having to take him to the vet which I myself could not do. Amazing Care I highly highly recommend”
“Catherine is the absolute best! She is super communicative, easy to reach, and I’ve had seamless booking experiences with her. She is also super understanding! I had flight delays that resulted in me needing a later pick up time at the last minute and she was super accommodating. My dog Jax loves her and Cashew. 10/10 recommend Catherine and I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!”

“Michael and his girlfriend took really good care of my dog, patiently attending to his needs. They kept me updated with many pictures. I would use them for boarding again without hesitation.”
“Frances took great care of our dog. She works from home so he got a week of full attention. She communicated frequently with pictures and updates. Very nice person and animal lover.”
“We left Reggie in Ankita’s care for two weeks while we were abroad. Since then, she’s also been helping us with doggy daycare. She kept us updated throughout the trip, sending regular snaps and videos that really helped ease our nerves. Ankita is an excellent communicator—she’s very careful with the puppies and respectful toward their parents. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for doggy daycare or boarding. Thank you so much, Ankita!”
“Ryan and Jefra took wonderful care of Pika! They were very responsive and accommodating, and they sent me regular updates and beautiful photos of my pup during the week I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Another successful stay for our Lola with Aeli. She has been our go to this year when we have been out of town. Communication is excellent and truly a great sitter for our dog. This time was a 7 day stay and we are so fortunate to have found Aeli. Lola always has a wonderful stay. No doubt we will book again.”

Our pup, Allora, had the best time with Desi and Mimi! We needed sitters last minute for almost 10 days and feel so lucky that we were able to find them. They made sure she fit in with all the dogs in their pack and remembered all of the little details related to her diet and preferences. Will definitely bring Allora back soon!
I absolutely loved the service! They took such great care of Bella, and I always felt completely comfortable and confident leaving her with them. I really appreciated the constant updates and the photos they sent me, which gave me so much peace of mind. The space they have for the dogs is also perfect—comfortable, spacious, and designed for them to feel happy and at ease. I’m very grateful for how well they treated Bella and would definitely recommend them! 🐾❤️
Funda and her family took wonderful care of my 1 year old rescue pup! He had only been with us for 4 weeks and had just started to relax…but I was nervous to leave him overnight so soon. She sent pictures and updates- and I saw he was doing great- and I immediately relaxed. I saw Max was in good hands. I would absolutely leave him with her again 😎
Marcy did a wonderful job pet sitting my dog! She was caring and attentive. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. Marcy was also reliable, kind, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving to care for their pets. Thank you so much, Marcy!
Fran was wonderful with our dog! She was incredibly kind and caring, and Nova took to her right away. Fran made sure Nova was eating well and kept us updated each day with pictures and messages about how she was doing. We felt completely at ease knowing Nova was in such great hands. We would definitely recommend Fran!
Valerie was great with my senior dog, Gerry, who she watched for about a week while I was on vacation. Between his age and his separation anxiety, Gerry isn’t always the easiest pup, but Valerie knew how to let him settle in — when to love him up, when to distract him, and when to give him space. She always updated me on how he was doing, and worked with me to find solutions if he seemed particularly grumpy. Gerry also has a bit of a complicated medication regimen, which Valerie handled perfectly. She clearly has experience will all types of dogs and their needs, and I felt confident leaving Gerry in her capable hands. I’d absolutely call Valerie again!
Katherine took fantastic care of our two pups! This was our first time boarding with her, so naturally a bit nervous, but almost immediately after dropping off we started getting updates about the dogs. Photos and videos, showing happy and well-cared for dogs with wagging tails! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur babies and putting us at ease!
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!!!

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 .
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.

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.
