“This was my first time having anyone other than family watching Abby, so I was a bit nervous. But Jonathan took such great care of her; he sent updates every day on how she was adjusting and settling in, which really put my mind at ease. I would absolutely book with him again to watch Abby!”

“Amanda has been really caring and took care of my dog luna very well. She constantly updated me with the status of luna and her pics as well. There were instances where I received photo of luna playing with her and her husband. Overall during my dog boarding with Amanda, my dog luna felt as if she was with another family where she vacationed and had a blast. Thank you.”

“Eunice took excellent care of Cappy during the three days we were away! She kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell she read my notes about Cappy’s care. Cappy also had a wonderful time with Eunice’s family and her dog, Pincky! I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”

“Our pepper had a great time with Charles and his family! We had a meet and greet beforehand, and he had a plan for our dog who is high energy but not great with other dogs. She was comfortable immediately at the meet/greet, no reservations at drop off, and came home happy. And Charles sent us photos!”

About: I’m a caring, patient, and reliable pet sitter who treats every pet like they’re my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I’m happy to provide plenty of playtime, walks, cuddles, and attention. I’m also responsible and communicative, so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away! 🐾 I’m in college Monday–Thursday during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings before 7am, afternoons after 1pm, and on weekends for pet care. I have a flexible schedule outside of classes and can work with your pet’s routine and needs! I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I follow their normal routine for feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, walks, and anything else they need. I also give them plenty of attention and keep their space clean and comfortable while their owners are away!

“It was our dog's first night away from us and we feel so fortunate to have found Shaun S. Shaun and his family treated Betty with such love and took so much time to understand our dog, Betty's, routine and personality prior to her visit. It was so nice to receive so many pictures and even videos during her stay... he kept us posted the whole time. When I arrived to pick her up, Betty's tail was wagging as she "introduced" me to Shaun - along with his son and wife. What a lovely family and the perfect home to leave Betty. We already booked 2 more stays!”

About: I may not have a professional certification in animal behavior, but what I do have is a deep love for dogs, years of experience caring for my own dog, and a commitment to keeping your pet safe, happy, and loved. I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and dependable. I can implement strict feeding schedules and medications, navigate long walks/hikes, or simply recognize when a dog just needs some quiet companionship. I will treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. You can count on me for regular photo/video updates and the peace of mind that your pet is being treated like family. I am an early riser and have the ability to be very flexible. I had dedicated the past 14 years of my life to caring for my late rescue, and am capable to continue doing so for many more. I live in a two-story, single bedroom condo within an HOA community. I do not have a fenced yard, but I will be able to keep your dog active with many walks and interactions with other dogs. My home is spacious and orderly. I am clean and respectful of other's spaces; I treat it as my own. I am well educated and willing to lend a hand when others are in need of help.

Isabella was amazing from the moment we met until I picked up my pup 🐶 ❤️. She was very sweet and asked all the right questions to ensure Sky was comfortable and happy during his stay. She also sent lots of pictures! I felt so at ease knowing that he was in great hands. The yard is beautiful 😍 so many places to run and discover. Will definitely be booking with Isabella in the future, thank you!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Gabriel took such amazing care of our Moon, while we were away. From the very first message, he was friendly, communicative, and clearly experienced. We got regular updates, photos, and little notes that showed how much attention and affection our baby was getting. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Moon was in such good hands. When we came home, Moon was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. We’ll absolutely be booking with Gabriel again — highly recommend to anyone looking for a truly reliable and caring sitter!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - East Hanover

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in East Hanover on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 13,588 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across East Hanover. 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 East Hanover 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 East Hanover 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 East Hanover 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 East Hanover.

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 East Hanover 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.
