About: If you are new to Rover use the discount code https://www.rover.com/sit/rhi31973 I’m a mom of two, and I have two Maltese of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just giving them lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll care for your dog like they’re part of my own family, and I’ll make sure you get plenty of updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away. I work from home full-time and have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I love spending time outside with them, whether we’re playing in the yard or taking a relaxing stroll around the neighborhood. Because I work from home, I also offer flexible drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, or after my workday. Whether your pup needs a potty break, some exercise, playtime, or a little extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and I can crate your dog if needed. Since I work from home full-time, your dog will never be left alone for long and will receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, and after work to fit your schedule.
About: I’ve had 2 Labrador Retrievers since childhood so I understand their behavior, needs, and personalities. I’m attentive and patient, making sure each one feels safe and comfortable in a new environment. I keep their routine consistent, provide clean litter, fresh food and water, and give them the right balance of attention and space. I’m available most days, including weekends, and can accommodate same-day bookings. I’m home often, so your pet will get plenty of attention, regular walks, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions, keep routines consistent, and give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. Your pet will be treated like part of the family.
“It was great experience with Jill so far. My puppy been with her 2 times and with couple other dogs she takes care of. She has got a positive and patient attitude. Her house is very clean, she doesn’t have a yard but she balances it with multiple walks for the dogs. She is very responsive and accommodating as well. I have decided to send my puppy couple times every week to her home so he can socialize. Since Jill doesn’t have too many pets at the same time, it’s good for my puppy and all pets get more personal attention. I highly recommend her for your pet needs!”
“Essence was a great host for our Fiona. She is very patient and thoughtful and put in the effort to make sure our pup was comfortable and adjusting. We would absolutely have our dog stay with her again.”
“Leo was so excited to go to Rocío’s today — he was literally jumping for joy! That says so much about the love and care she gives him. Thank you, Rocío, for making him so happy and always taking such good care of our Leo!”
“I have used them twice so far and can’t be any happier! When I was searching for a sitter for my 5 month old for the first time, I was super nervous and did not know what to expect because my puppy was not spayed and wasn’t fully house broken. Chulmin & Hyujin were extremely flexible and provided updates with pictures and short video clips throughout the day which gave me piece in mind. I was running late for pick up but they were extremely flexible and accommodating. It was a truly pleasant experience and I used them again this past weekend when I had to go on a trip. They seem to love pets and are very knowledgeable/experienced, and provide you consistent feedback throughout the duration. They took my puppy for a walk and socialized with their dog (and other dogs during the first time my puppy stayed with them). I asked them to gradually exposed my puppy to other dogs since that was her first time with other dogs which the totally respected and handled extremely well. I am very thankful for their care and service and strongly recommend to others!”
“We have been using Sandra and San for the last month. We are very happy with the service they provide. When we drive up there block, Shelby gets excited and is very happy to see them. They are warm, kind, and conscientious and we feel comfortable allowing them to take care of our furry baby.”
“Chloe was super communicative and kind, benji enjoyed his time under her care and she was patient with him and his puppy antics. She also accommodated our request to care for him last minute + same day adjustment to add an extra hour. I’m definitely booking w/ Chloe for future sitting!”
“Andrew is an amazing pet sitter and would highly recommend him! He is very committed, communicative, respectful, responsible, and very knowledgeable. He sent us videos and photos throughout the day which made us feel at ease. He also has an excellent setting in his home - play and sleeping areas that allow any dog to feel very comfortable. He is also very careful when introducing other dogs. He takes his time in getting to know each dog to make sure he is providing what the dog needs to make the stay or day care enjoyable and smooth. Highly recommend. Will be taking Bless again! Thank you!”
“While a few hours may not provide a comprehensive experience, Samantha was very attentive, demonstrated good communicating skills and puntual My dog seemed comfortable.”
About: I am a dedicated pet care provider that is comfortable with any animal shape or size. I am very passionate about my job and making sure the pet Im taking care of has all of its needs, and ofcourse some slight spoilage! I started out in dog daycares and moved on to do all kinds of animal care work. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies as young at 2 months old! I am educating myself to become a dog trainer and can help provide tips when it comes to building human-canine relationships. I can also do specials needs such as insulin shots. I am also in the process of becoming a certified Animal Handler in New York State, so I can further my education in animal care. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry baby! I currently work part time once a week at a Grooming academy. So i will have plenty of time during the week to spend time with your pet! I also live with animals so I am constantly spending my time walking feeding and caring for them. I walk the dogs at least 4 times a day. Morning, mid day, evening, and late night relief. Also depending on the weather a trip to the dog park. I live in a spacious apartment with 3 cats and two dogs. I have done my best to provide a sanctuary here for my animals and any visitsors who comes across us. I have one room dedicated to the animal with cat trees and soft spaces. Water fountains (for dogs and cats) and beds for lounging. I have gates for separation during feeding times and a nice big couch everyone is welcome to lounge on!
“Karla was amazing with our 11 month husky! Handled her high energy levels very well! Karla sent us videos and pictures during our dogs stay so that was nice, we will definitely be going back to her.”
“Hope is the best! She did an outstanding job caring for Frankie, our Boston Terrier puppy. She looked out for his every need and is just so impressive with everything she does! We can’t say enough about her, and her entire family! Highly, highly recommend!!”
“Fiona’s first time in doggy day care was a success thanks to Alyona! She was super communicative through the whole process and provided photos and updates throughout the day. I would be happy to book Alyona again!”
“Pablo had a great stay with Kehlani and was very happy when I picked him up. Additionally, Kehlani was very responsive before and during the time she cared for him. I was also appreciative of the fact she was available on somewhat late notice. I will definitely check to see if she is available the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Craig has been an amazing dogsitter for my Daphne. She loves playing around his family which shows how good he is with caring for dogs. He is definitely worth getting. Its also soooo convenient that if he is close enough to your house, he can pickup and dropoff your pup. He is definitely my go to person to watch over my pup! I'd give him 10 stars if I could!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Demarest is $50 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $56 per day. 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 11,200 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Demarest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Demarest commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 11,200 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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.
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 .
