“Daisy had such an amazing time! They kept us updated with pictures throughout, which made my first time leaving her so much easier and completely stress-free. Highly recommend they were wonderful!”
“Bonnie watched our dog on our wedding day, and she was amazing! She gave us updates throughout the day and made the whole experience completely stress free so we could fully enjoy our big day. She was also incredibly flexible with our unpredictable drop off times and even let us come early for pickup. Thank you so much, Bonnie!”
“We had left our 5 year old fur baby under Lakshmi’s care for the weekend , he was very well take care of , Lakshmi took all the required information , she was very meticulous in providing updates during Bentleys stay and took great care of him. Would highly recommend Lakshmi for anyone looking for a great home away from Home for their fur baby while you are out , know that your baby wil be well taken care of.”
“Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Natalia and her husband! They were truly exceptional sitters for our dog, Sai. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. Natalia sent us daily updates, complete with photos, showing us all the fun activities Sai was enjoying—from walks to outings at the dog park. It was clear Sai was having the time of his life! When Sai experienced a minor GI upset, they handled it with such care and professionalism, following our instructions perfectly. They showed genuine compassion and concern, which meant the world to us. It's rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Natalia and her husband did just that. When we picked Sai up, it was obvious he had bonded with Natalia and saw her as part of his family. He was looking at her like he was going to miss his new friend, which truly warmed our hearts. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and highly recommend Natalia to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and attentive environment for their pets. Thank you both for going above and beyond for Sai!”
“This was the first time I was apart from my dog for more than two days and the first day that I left the dog with a non relative. It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”
“Kate and her family were amazing with our fluffy boy. They treated him like a member of the family while we were on vacation. We were away for 10 days and Kate kept us posted with daily photos of Kofi. Our flight back was delayed due to a blizzard. Kate and her family were so accommodating in extending his stay on such short notice. We felt at ease knowing that our Kofi was in good hands and loved!”
“My dogs had another wonderful stay with Lucas & Katherine, this time for two weeks. In fact my senior gal liked it there so much that she almost didn’t want to come back with me. I think for a pet parent that best and most positive sign that their furbabies were well cared for!!! They sent me lots of photos of my dogs snuggled under blankets or enjoying outdoor times! L & K are the best people and I feel like I can travel with so much less worry and guilt when my dogs are with them.”
“Stacia was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Cody! From the very moment we did the meet and greet, we felt confident he was in caring and capable hands. She kept us updated throughout the weekend, sent pictures, and made sure Cody maintain his routine, stayed happy, comfortable, and well-loved. It’s clear she treats pets like family. From the pictures she shared Cody seemed comfortable as he was home with his own family. Cody came home content, and full of joy—which says everything! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will definitely be booking with Stacia again. We highly recommend Stacia to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive sitter! She is top-tier🐶💛”
“It was our first time using Rover and Jessica F.'s stay for our Bori (15lbs, Cavapoo). She not only sent photos and videos several times a day throughout the stay but also took very good care of our dog. We were worried that Bori wouldn't want to come home after the wonderful experience with her and her family. The fenced backyard she has is very good (Bori played a lot in the sun and the yard) and she has a separate stay area for the dogs. I will definitely ask her again for her help in the future! Thank you!”
“I highly recommend Saty for pet care! My precious dog stayed with them while my job took me out of state for a few days. My dog is older and having an option for him to stay in a loving home environment vs a kennel is ideal. I received periodic updates with pictures and videos. Additionally, Saty was very accommodating when my flight coming back was delayed. I will be reaching out to them again when my travels take me out of town and I require loving pet care for my dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover for our dog. Marlene was patient with myself and our dog! She was so easy to communicate with. Very responsive! She would update us regarding our dog’s stay daily and our dog seemed to have enjoyed his stay with her. So glad we found her and we would certainly use her again.”
“Jacqueline was great with our dog. She communicated regularly with us and sent video updates. When our dog had a problem with her cats, she called us immediately and we took care of the issue. I would recommend her if your dog has no issues with cats.”
“A+ Kind, attentive, communicative, flexible. The photo of our dog Charlie sprawled out in front of the fireplace within an hour of us dropping him off says it all. He feels safe, secure, relaxed, and loved. Tynesha has become Charlie’s resort vacation destination anytime we go away.”

I had a wonderful experience with Sudhesh for my dog. He took such great care of my dog and made him feel completely at home. Sudhesh ensured he got regular walks, gave him plenty of attention, and shared photos diligently, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was in caring hands. I highly recommend Sudhesh to anyone looking for a responsible and trustworthy and loving person to care of their dog.
I couldn’t be happier with our dog sitter! From the moment I met her and her husband, I knew I could trust them. I’m extremely picky about who I leave Princess with—she’s my baby! But they went above and beyond. I got daily photos, videos, and even thoughtful little gifts when I picked her up. Princess was so loved and cared for—it was clear from their experience (she was a vet in Colombia!) and their passion. I’m beyond satisfied and relieved to have found someone I trust in New York. If you’re looking for a dog sitter, look no further. I’m so grateful for them, and Princess had the best time!
Yanina, and her family treated her like she was already part of their family. They were especially understanding when we had to drop our dog off later than our initial time. She sent us pics during our vacation and updated us. I was relieved that they had a fenced in yard because dalmations love to run. We picked up our fur baby in great shape. Thanks to Yanina and her family we will definitely rebook in future.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Shandy! My puppy stayed for 3 nights, and I was so impressed with the care, love, and attention given. From the start, communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease leaving my pup in such capable hands. She went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable, safe, and happy. I received updates, videos and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When she dropped off my puppy, I could tell she had been well cared for and loved—happy, relaxed, and even better with her routines. It’s clear that Shandy truly has a passion and talent for caring for dogs. I’m so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and reliable boarder, and I will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member!
Overall, had a good experience with Peter! Aside from a minor communication issue, Peter was a good doggie sitter for Yumi. He appeared to follow instructions regarding feeding/walking and kept me updated throughout Yumi’s stay. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times and Yumi seemed to enjoy her stay. Would book with Peter again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Colonia on Rover is $80.25 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 13,391 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Colonia. 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 Colonia 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 Colonia 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 Colonia 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 Colonia.
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 Colonia 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.
