“Enrique took great care of Coco. He kept us updated with pictures and she looked comfortable and happy. He was also very flexible with our drop off and pick up times when we were running a bit behind. It was a great first experience with Rover.com. We'll definitely look to book with Enrique again for any future care needs.”
“I have nothing but good things to say about Ms. Maisha. My dog loved her from the first drop off. She sent picture updates daily. I will definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Hsin and Phil were very responsive and caring during Brooklyn’s stay. They kept sharing pictures and regular updates with us, which gave us great peace of mind while we were in Turkey. We could tell that Brooklyn really enjoyed his time with them and felt comfortable in their home. We’d definitely book with them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Rosemarie watched my two dogs for about a week and she treated them like they were her own! She kept us updated with pictures and videos and when we picked them up they were clean and had cute bowties on them. We will definitely book her in the future.”
“Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our little boy!! He was so comfortable with you!! We will definitely have you care for him again when we are in the area! Also, we are very appreciative that you agreed to watch him on such short notice!!”
“Amanda was great! Really communicative and accommodated my changes to the drop off time and my ridiculously early pick up time. Would definitely recommend”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“I am so grateful for the amazing care my dog received! I had to leave out of state unexpectedly and realized at the last minute that I had made arrangements for everyone except our family dog. Thankfully, Klainer stepped in without hesitation and made the entire experience stress-free. Klainer kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was being cared for with love, patience, and attention. I truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and professionalism. I will most definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
“5/5 Stars — Absolutely Outstanding Care! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Caroline! She boarded my Miniature Schnauzer, Mikey, for a few days while I was away, and she truly exceeded every expectation. From day one, her friendly and welcoming nature put my mind completely at ease. She kept me updated throughout the stay with regular texts, pictures, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear right from the start how kind, loving, and attentive she is with animals. Honestly, I couldn't ask for anyone better. By the end of the experience, it felt like a family member had taken care of my dog. I will definitely be reaching out to Caroline again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pup!”
“Ivette and her family did an excellent job taking care of my rat terrier for over a week. I had constant updates with pictures/videos almost every day. My little baby is a handful sometimes but they seemed to manage him well. They are trustworthy people and we will definitely use them next time we go on vacation.”
About: A strong commitment to treating every pet “like you do,” with a satisfaction-focused approach centered on each animal’s happiness, comfort, and well-being. Having 20+ years of professional pet care experience, giving owners confidence that their pets are in knowledgeable hands Paws N Claws Pet Service is a full-time part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day is organized around scheduled pet visits, feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, and client updates. Throughout the week, I coordinate bookings, communicate with pet owners, and tailor care to each pet’s individual needs to ensure they receive reliable, personalized attention. I provide personalized, in-home care that keeps pets comfortable in their familiar environment and follows their normal routine as closely as possible. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection and attention. If needed, I can administer medications according to the owner’s instructions and monitor each pet for any changes in behavior or health. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. Every pet is treated with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”
“Nicolle and Ray were wonderful with our dog, Apple. They provided multiple updates daily, many with pictures and videos. They were very attentive to her fear of rain and made sure she was comfortable. Apple looked so happy with lots of visits to their nearby dog park and many cuddles on the couch. I would love to bring Apple to them again.”
“Our dog Happy had a great stay with Brianna. It was the first time we ever boarded our dog, so we were nervous at first, but Brianna was very welcoming and our dog warmed up to her quickly. This was our quick test to make sure our dog (and we) could handle the separation for a short period of time, as a bridge to boarding her for a longer stretch of time. Our dog passed due to Brianna's hospitality, so we are much more comfortable boarding her for a longer stay with Brianna very soon! Thanks so much, Brianna and family!”
“My furbaby was comfortable with Keirstin. He spent a day with her before his 3 nights of boarding. He was quite excited to see her again to start his boarding for which I was pleased to see. While we were away, Keirstin sent us photos and updates and she was very responsive when I asked questions about his settling in her home. Thank you Keirstin.”
“Sanaz was great with my dog Whitney! She was super flexible and communicative while I was away. I had no doubt that my pup was in great care the whole time. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“My dachshund Aleph had a great time with Ayush and I suspect he didn’t want to come back home, so well was he taken care of! Ayush went above and beyond to make him feel at home and I was at ease during my vacation that he was in such great hands!”

Jamin is always a fantastic sitter. He follows instructions, communicates well, and is flexible with our schedule. For this trip, our flight had a few delays and was expected to land late. Jamin was kind enough to drive and drop off Diamond back at our home, which was hugely helpful. As always, couldn’t recommend Jamin enough.
Maisha is an AMAZING pet sitter! My fur baby absolutely loves her and gets so excited every time she sees her and her two fur babies! It’s such a relief knowing she’s in caring, trustworthy, and loving hands. Maisha goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend as she is truly one of the best! ❤️🐾

Kayla is absolutely fantastic. She has the sweetest daughter who hung out with our pup a ton, I could tell our dog had an amazing time with Kayla and her fam. Kayla was also wonderful with sending photo updates, our dog was being cuddled in most of the photos! Would 1000% rebook with her and we probably will very soon!! Kayla is amazing.
I am extremely satisfied with the service I received during the period my dog was being sat by Yan. Yan was very organized, thorough, friendly and communicative throughout the dog sitting. My dog Luna was definitely in great hands! Thank you Yan! Luna really enjoyed her stay and she will definitely be seeing you soon!
Kenny took great care of our two standard golden doodles during their 10-day stay. He was responsive throughout the booking and periodically sent us updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both of our dogs seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we picked them up. We truly appreciated knowing they were in capable hands and would gladly recommend Kenny to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive sitter.
Yunyi is an excellent dog sitter. She followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to keep me updated with pictures and videos. Also, her pets (Donut and Bagel) are so lovely and I am sure they were a great company for my baby. Thank you for everything. Definitely will book again!
This was our second time leaving Nipsey & Rosie with Lindsey, and once again, she was absolutely amazing! Lindsey and her family take such wonderful care of our dogs and treat them with so much love and attention. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands while we’re away. We’re truly so thankful we found Lindsey and couldn’t recommend her enough! Nipsey & Rosie are always so happy and well cared for when they’re with her.
It was a pleasure meeting Enrique and having my boy Lucky with him for a last minute overnight stay. Enrique was very communicative from the meet and greet to when he was actually with my pup. Lucky came home happy and smiling. Would not hesitate to book with Enrique again!
Hsin and Phil were very responsive and caring during Brooklyn’s stay. They kept sharing pictures and regular updates with us, which gave us great peace of mind while we were in Turkey. We could tell that Brooklyn really enjoyed his time with them and felt comfortable in their home. We’d definitely book with them again in the future. Highly recommend!

95% of East Newark 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 Newark 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 Newark 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 Newark.
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 Newark 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.
