“Ekaterina was fantastic with out puppy. She kept us informed and sent frequent pictures. Our puppy had a fabulous time and enjoyed her stay. Ekaterina was quick to respond and is wonderful to work with. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their dog.”
“Tynesha and her family were fantastic, sending photos and quick updates throughout our pet’s stay with them! He came back to us happy and healthy (and probably missing his new temporary family a little bit, too). It gives me great peace of mind to know that, if/when we next have to go out of town, we have this great option for our 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.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jessica! While I was traveling, my dog required unexpected medical attention, and Jessica went above and beyond to ensure she was well cared for. She immediately recognized the issue, took her to the vet, and kept me updated throughout the process, which gave me such peace of mind. Jessica treated my dog as if she were her own, providing excellent care, administering medications as instructed, and showering her with love and attention during her recovery. It's clear that Jessica is not only reliable and professional but also incredibly compassionate and dedicated. I am so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Jessica, for everything!”
“I had the greatest experience using Stacia to take care of Mojo. She went above and beyond the call of duty to care for him and with me traveling, that was top notch service. Daily updates with photos of him enjoying his time away and I didn’t have to worry about him in her care. If I could rate 10 stars, I would. Mojo has found a new second home at Stacia’s place.”
“At the last minute we needed someone to watch our furbaby. I heard abt Rover and I came across Javier’s profile. I was impressed with the reviews and his overall profile.We had a meet and greet and Button showed immediate interest. Javier’s love and care for Button exceeded every expectation. He showered us with photos and videos, gave us recommendations and great observations of Button. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND JAVIER!! I live on Staten Island and have NO PROBLEMS paying the toll and potential traffic to have someone like Javier watch Button. Book him, you will not regret the experience!”
“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Lucas and Katherine were phenomenal! They sent videos and pictures the entire time my baby was with them. You could tell they really love dogs and she was so happy to be with them. It was great to know that she was being well cared for and loved.”
“Yanina was great! She kept us informed and updated throughout our puppy's stay with her, and was very flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Our puppy had a lot of fun and exercise while with Yanina and her dog, Stella. Would definitely be back for future boarding needs!”
“Hollie did an amazing job taking care of Scooby. He stayed with her for a week and looks like he had a lot of fun. I received many updates throughout the day which I appreciated. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“This is our second time coming to Jose and he was wonderful with ginger. Had to extender her stay last minute by one day and he was very accommodating. We look forward to any future stays”
“Bonnie and her family are amazing! Sesame is an anxious baby, but everyone in her family gave him so much love and hugs that he immediately settled in. Bonnie shared many photos with me throughout his stay so I could see how he was doing. She was also very communicative, especially about his meals, since he’s a picky eater who’s not very good about finishing his food. She and her family really went above and beyond to care for him! I would totally stay with her again!!!”
“Victor and Lesly were the perfect sitters. They followed our instructions perfectly and provided lots of updates and pictures. Will definitely rebook the next time we’re out of town.”
“Ms. Tanacka was very helpful, patiently watching my little Jordan for 5 days. She kept me updated and forwarded photos of Jordan's activities. I give her appreciation for her kindness, patience and caring for my fur baby, Jordan. Thanks again, Ms. Tanacka.”
“Riley’s week long stay at Lisa’s went well. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up.Lisa sent me little updates during the week so I wouldn’t worry! (I really appreciate that she made accommodations to take him at the last minute.) great experience for us both, being the first time I had to leave him😊”

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She kept me updated every single day with pictures and messages about how my dog was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and treated him like her own. I never had to worry because I always knew he was in great hands. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to watch their pet!
Our dogs had an amazing time on his stay with Ekaterina, her husband and their 3 wonderful children! This was our family’s first time using Rover and it went very well. If you are looking for your dog to be treated like one of the family these are the people to choose! If your dog wants to have ball play, sleepovers, walks and plenty of backyard activities, this is the place. The most important factor for us was caring for our older dog’s special needs. Ekaterina and her husband had experience to manage our dogs medication regime and we had peace of mind while on vacation. It was most comforting to see our dog throughout the day and night in photos! We highly recommend them.
Javier took exceptional care of my fur baby and went above and beyond to make both of us feel comfortable from the very beginning. It was clear that she was well cared for, loved, and happy while I was away. I truly appreciated the updates, kindness, and professionalism. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Griffey seemed so comfortable and happy in his first stay with Tynesha and family! This was his first stay with anybody outside of our family, and we immediately knew he was in great hands from the initial meeting. The regular updates and photos kept us reassured that he was having a great time. We will absolutely be coming back to Tynesha for any future dog sitting needs!
Victor and Lessly did a fantastic job taking care of our dog while we were away for a long weekend. It was clear that they treated him like family and he was well loved and entertained. We really appreciated the regular photos and updates about his day, and that they were extremely responsive. We highly recommend them and will definitely reach out to them whenever we are going out of town without our pup again!
Lauren was such a pleasure to have as a dog sitter. We could enjoy our 5 nights away knowing that our puppy was in a responsible and loving care. Lauren was a great communicator who provided us with videos, pictures and updates. She was flexible with drop off and pickup times which we appreciated. I highly recommend Lauren.
Could not recommend nor say enough nice things about Caren. Our dog Bailey stayed with her — she went above and beyond to make us and Bailey comfortable prior to the stay, and during sent updates daily with photos and assured Baileys comfort. We also had a family emergency during the stay and Caren was so sweet and accommodating. Would certainly recommend to anyone, and will be staying again in the future. Thanks Caren!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cranford on Rover is $59.94 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 13,723 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cranford. 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 Cranford 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 Cranford 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 Cranford 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 Cranford.
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 Cranford 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.
