“Sandy had an amazing stay. She loved the roaming around and was so comfortable,. First time I left her anywhere that she didn’t want to leave. A real family home.”
“Loved Kateri and her awesome back yard! My one dog is anxious and doesn’t like a lot of people so her fenced in yard was appealing to me. Easy to just let her in and out and not have to deal with her grumpiness (my dog.. not Kateri) She kept me updated though the day and let me know the anxious one warmed up to her towards the end of the stay. I can’t wait to take my 2 dogs to her again and have a nice little beach day to myself! If was exactly what I needed. And on kind of a short notice too.. she was very flexible. Thank you again , Kateri! Bamma and Archee say hello! And Thank you too!”
“Top tier service! This was my first time using this service and I am so elated I ran into Sterlin. She provided constant communication about the activities she was doing with Bear which made me extremely comfortable and relieved. I also think Bear fell in love as well. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet as if they are there own there’s no need to look any further…YOU FOUND HER!”
“Snoop had a great time at Kelley's house. It was his first time but he loved sharing his doggy kisses with Kelley's 2 boys. We will definitely call on them again. Thank you!”
“Kirk was incredible to work with. I had asked him many questions and he got back to me quickly with answers. I have been struggling finding the perfect place to take my fur babies when I work long hours or am away for a night occasionally. He was flexible with the hours I needed for drop off and pick up. As soon as my dogs got there they were venturing around the enclosed fence area and seemed very happy. My maltipoo has separation anxiety and you wouldn’t have known it when I dropped her off to Kirk. My boxer is a puppy and Kirk was willing to take on having a high energy puppy for a long duration of time. I can’t say enough good things about Kirk for this being only my first time taking my dogs to him and his wife. I will be booking again immediately and have every intention of using Kirk and Anita for any needs I have in the future regarding doggy day care and/or overnight stays.”
“Victoria is a terrific host, very good communicator, got several photos and videos throughout my dogs stay. I was very comfortable leaving my pup with her. Thank you again for your hospitality and hosting Bree.”
“Alex took great care of my puppy! He was there all day while I was at work, I got to enjoy pictures and videos she took of him throughout the day. He went on multiple walks which he loves! She was very accommodating to my schedule and quick to reply to any messages! I couldn’t recommend her more! My puppy can’t wait to go spend another day with Alex”
“Allison took amazing care of Duffy during his doggy daycare! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates so I knew he was in good hands. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Great Care! Marci was fantastic and she even made my dog a personalized Bandana. My dog was well cared for and got enough exercise in her yard she slept the whole way home. Highly Recommend!”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey walked into Denise's home and didn't even say goodbye! He felt completely at home! The backyard is completely fenced in and just so charming! We got pictures of Jeffrey relaxing and napping while we were out. We didn't worry about him at all!”
“Absolutely love Michael! I trust him 1000000% with my fur baby. Bella is my first dog I've had since living on my own and she is my world. I was so nervous at first and Micheal completely understood, and even let us meet him b4 I left Bella for the day with him. I work very early in the morning, and Michael always greets us with a smile.He is always sending me pictures of her happily playing. Bella was nervous the first day or two but now she wags and runs to him! I would definitely recommend Micheal to anyone!”
About: Hello! My name is Amanda, and I am 36 years old. On top of being an animal lover of all kinds my entire life, I have worked in pet stores, and Dog Kennels where I would distribute meds (oral and injection) as necessary and was a Dog Groomer for a family-owned shop for 15 years. We are lucky enough to have a very spacious fenced in yard where your babies can play and stay safe. Unfortunately, I am currently not taking any bigger breeds at the moment. This will not be a forever thing, it's just what works for our family right now. Thank you for understanding! Sadly, we lost our family dog not too long ago, but we have a hairless cat who is the most patient, lover girl you’d ever meet. Drop offs and pick-ups can be anywhere between 8am to 8pm. I have two small children, and I try to keep a nighttime routine. We can always make other arrangements; I am very easy to work with. If you would like your dog to be bathed right before picking up, we can arrange that as well! Dogs *MUST* be good with children and cats. I promise to love your animals and give them a happy & safe environment until you return! I cannot wait to meet you! I am currently a stay-at-home Mom! It will be easy to fit into your dog's schedule and cater to them as often as they need! I have huge 6ft privacy fenced in yard for play time and walks. We also have a beach and lake right across the street if that is something they would like!

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 Dorothy 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 308 sitters in Dorothy, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
