“Rhinesca took great care of our guy while we were away. We received updates on his daily walks and he was so happy. We were worried he would not want to come home. In the future we will certainly book another stay.”
“Jocelyn took good care of my dog. She put on a coat to keep him warm, took him out to play, even on snowy cold days. She sent many pics and videos. Very happy with her care. Will use her again.”
“Katherine was a godsend when I needed an emergency cat sitter for my little man. She’s accommodating, friendly, and communicative. Also, I appreciated the gentleness she used with my cat, which put my mind at ease while he was boarding. I highly recommend Katherine as a sitter. She’ll definitely be repeat resource for us.”
“This was our second time having our pet stay with them, and once again, we could tell how happy and excited our pet was the whole time! 🐶❤️ Even though we were away traveling and couldn’t be together, they sent us lots of pictures and updates, which made us feel like we were right there with our pet. We’re always so grateful for the loving care and attention they give. Thank you so much, as always! 🥰”
“Sandra and San were absolutely incredible with Leo! We left him with them for 5 nights and felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. They were so warm, kind, and caring, and I really appreciated how much effort they made to get to know Leo beforehand and understand his personality and routine. It really showed how responsible and thoughtful they are as sitters. Leo got tons of walks, playtime with Penny, and plenty of room to run around in their big fenced-in yard. We loved all the photos and videos and could tell he was having such a great time. They were also so easy to communicate with, which made everything completely stress-free. We’d absolutely have Leo stay with them again and HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“Couldn't have been more happier with my first Rover experience! Ann had sent me photos of my dog while I was away. Will definitely use the service again in the future!”
“Rob was great with Bagel! Super friendly and responsive, sent lots of pics which I loved. Bagel seemed really comfortable with him and adjusted quickly. I felt at ease the whole time. Would definitely book again, 5 stars!”
“Cindy and her family were so great with our dog while we were away - it gave us so much comfort to know Hank was in a loving home while we were away. We will definitely book again with Cindy!”
“I booked with Carol for boarding my dog. She was fantastic! She took very good care of my dog and adhered to feedings, walks, play time, and all the fun things my dog loves to do. She communicated well with me and provided pictures and updates each day. I can tell my dog enjoyed his time with her. If I need to board my dog again, I will definitely be booking with Carol again.”
“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care. I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”
“Noelle was a fantastic caretaker for our dog, Dodger. She helped out last minute, watching him for the weekend. He usually gets a little stressed after car rides and being left with strangers but he warmed up easily. Noelle sent great pictures and updates during the weekend and we will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Camila was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with photos and videos and took such great care of Winnie. Her dog Milo was also amazing—he and Winnie got along so well and played together perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again—couldn’t be happier with the experience!”
“Omg what an amazing first time experience. I am a new dog mom an I was so nervous to leave Kobe. Stephanie and Corey are simply amazing. So welcoming and inviting. Kobe had an amazing g time with his new friend Luna. Again thank you both for taking care my baby Kobe. We definitely need a play date soon ???”
“Paola and her children were amazing with my senior doggie. I could tell my dog had a wonderful time with her. She even made an effort to go out and grab other food to try and get my dog to eat (she tends to get home sick without me). I booked her again on my way home for our next planned vacation! Thank you again!”
“Elizabeth & Oleg took wonderful care of May over Memorial Day weekend! They were fantastic with her and kept us updated throughout the weekend with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear May was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We came home to a very happy pup! We would absolutely trust Elizabeth & Oleg to watch May again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable dog sitters.”
“Charmaine is great!! Friendly, professional, great communication. Our 10-yr old chihuahua mix was in good hands and we received daily updates and photos, which were much appreciated!!! Thanks Charmaine!!!”
“Our dog loves going to stay with Cynthia! He even recognized her house and ran to the door when he arrived for drop off, which is a glowing endorsement from him. He is very attached to his dad! He was happy and very well cared for!”
“My normal sitter was already booked and happened to find Andrew who had availability and local . My golden is a high energy pup who is a lot to keep up with at times. Andrew took him out for runs and even rollerblading in order for Coby to burn out his energy. He kept me up to date while I was traveling and answered any questions I had. Overall great experience for my pup and I will book again the next time I’m out of town.”
“Janise was amazing! She took such great care of our dog, Chiara. She was very attentive, kind, and made sure Chiara felt comfortable the entire time. We really appreciated that she sent photos and videos every single day — it gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked her up, Chiara looked happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We would definitely book with Janise again and highly recommend her!”

Rhinesca is truly amazing! She has watched our two dogs multiple times and always takes such great care of them. Most recently, she cared for them for 10 days while we were away on our honeymoon, and we could not have felt more at ease knowing they were in her hands. She communicated with us consistently, kept us updated, and made being across the world away from our dogs feel so much less stressful. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about them, and we always come home to two happy and well-cared-for pups. We trust Rhinesca completely and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring sitter.
We were very nervous about leaving our 3 year old mini-Golden, Cane, for the first time ever for such an extended period of time, however, Matt and Christianna made us feel very comfortable when we met them. While on vacation we received numerous photos and for a while we wondered if Cane would want to come home. It was obvious that he was having a great time and was being treated like he was a member of their family. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their dog to be loved and cared for while you are away.
100/10 You know you’ve chosen the right sitter for your dog when they refuse to leave with you. Soni was consistent in sending over photos and videos to keep me updated that Milo was doing great in their backyard and having a blast without me </3 All jokes aside, I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter
Lee was absolutely wonderful with Abby! She was so attentive, caring, and responsive throughout her stay. I really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent me every day—it gave me so much peace of mind knowing Abby was happy and well cared for. Lee made sure Abby ate well, got plenty of walks, and received lots of love and attention. It was also such a great plus that Abby got along so well with her two Goldendoodles. Seeing how happy and comfortable Abby was with them made me feel so reassured. I’m truly so happy with the care Abby received. Lee is kind, trustworthy, and clearly loves dogs. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you so much, Lee, for taking such great care of my girl! ❤️🐾
"She was amazing. It was Charlie's first time staying with someone else for more than a week, but the daily photos and videos she sent kept me totally reassured. I really appreciate how warmly she looked after him. Because of her, I could focus on my work on the other side of the world with peace of mind. I'm so glad Charlie had a blast with her dog and another puppy there. I felt so lucky to leave him with her."
Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!
Sooeun and her family are very kind and true dog lovers. Rest assured your dogs will be in very good hands and she sends lots of pictures and videos to you so you can see first hand how happy your dogs are in her care. I was a nervous wreck leaving. my dogs for vacation, but she put me at ease. My dogs seemed so happy I was nervous they wouldn't want to leave to come back home :-)
My dog spent 21 days in Yuchen’s house, and he was very happy with Yuchen’s family and her dog. Yuchen sent me pictures and videos everyday: my dog running in her large backyard, sleeping on the comfortable couch…. Yuchen is kind and responsible, highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Demarest is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $48 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,806 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Demarest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Demarest can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Demarest home-away-from-home, 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 Demarest.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Demarest 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 , 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 .
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.
