“We recently used Manuel’s dog sitting services for our Frenchie, Vinny, and we couldn’t be happier. Knowing Vinny was in Manuel’s capable care gave us such peace of mind to focus on our day. When we returned, Vinny was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so thankful for Manuel’s help and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Aishan & Bhumi accomodated my same day request to watch my dog while I had to run a few errands. I really appreciate their timely communication and taking such good care of Fidel. I would trust them to watch him again.”
“Jeanette was a great sitter for Mr Pickles! Great communication throughout while she cared for our pet, and very friendly and easy going. Her golden doodle was also great with our furry baby, she kept us up to date throughout the day with pictures and video, totally recommended :)”
“Doug was great with Molly! She had such a fun time and was totally tired out from her day. He was very friendly and provided updates throughout. He was very flexible with timing as well. We would definitely use him again in the future.”
“I wish I could gatekeep but it would t be right to other dog parents! Both were amazing with my two big dogs. Even my anxious younger one was treated with patience and kindness until he warmed up. Definitely will be booking again. Thanks Myah and Breanna, you both were great. 😊”
“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”
“My dogs have been to Sonya's twice and they go with her happily and come home happy and well taken care of. Sonya is super responsive, keeps me updated throughout the day, and gives me a detailed report afterwards, which I appreciate. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Jonny! I’ve had a special connection with animals for as long as I can remember. When I was in elementary school, my mother unexpectedly gave away our family dog without telling me, and that experience stayed with me. It gave me an early understanding of just how deep the bond between people and their pets can be. Over the years, I’ve continued learning about dog behavior, training, and responsible pet care, including being inspired by shows like The Dog Whisperer. My goal has always been to better understand animals and provide the kind of patient, attentive, and loving care I would want for my own pets. That passion eventually led me to create our modern Doggy Daycare Suites, where dogs can feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re away from home. I am an entrepreneur working in the health technology and personal development space, along with my wife. I spend plenty of time caring for pets while working toward our business goals. My hours are flexible, including nights and weekends. We now offer Doggy Day Care - Modern Suites for 4-6 hours and even overnight stays! I am very active; I go on walks twice per day, rain or shine, and I am happy to keep your pets active and safe. I am available to watch your pets with drop-in visits or take them out for walks, whatever your pets require to be healthy, happy, and active. We now offer Doggy Day Care - Modern Suites, a beautiful, safe, and spacious home away from home for your dog!
About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals and understand the trust that comes with looking after someone’s pet. I’m committed to providing dependable care by following your pets routine, giving them plenty of attention and exercise, and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout every visit. I work from home full-time so being able to provide busy pet parents with daycare will align with my schedule. I’m awake by 6am which will allow for you to drop off your pup before work, and I’ll be able to coordinate a curbside pick up with myself or my wife. I provide a service that reassures pet parents who are at work or in need of help on a busy day in my home. Your pet will be in a very calm and cozy environment and we will go on frequent walks throughout the day (as needed).
“Val was absolutely amazing. Very communicative and so sweet to Odie. I got pictures of him throughout the day, and she took phenomenal care of him even under the unfortunate circumstances of him having and injured and bandaged foot (which she was very tentative to) and him needing extra rest.”
“Jamin was great and accommodating at the last minute. He was definitely attentive to Yanni's needs and was helpful in getting him acclimated to a new environment. Hands down would book again”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to my Shiba Inu, Roxy, I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can completely trust. I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’m happy to tailor my care to their needs. I understand the importance of sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you have peace of mind. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and your furry family member will receive lots of affection, supervision, and personalized care. I know every pet is unique, and my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Hi! I’m Gisselle, a devoted dog lover and proud dog mom to my friendly Shiba Inu, Roxy. I know that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where your dog feels like part of the family. Every pup in my care receives plenty of affection, exercise, playtime, and individualized attention based on their unique personality and routine. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter pace, I’ll provide the care and attention they need to feel happy and comfortable. I also believe communication is just as important as exceptional care. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and videos throughout your pet’s stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re safe, loved, and having a great time. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member. I look forward to welcoming them into our home and giving them a fun, safe, and loving home away from home. Our home features a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, sunbathe, and play under close supervision. Whether your pup enjoys playing fetch, going for walks, lounging in the sun, or simply curling up for a cozy nap, they’ll have a comfortable and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Orange
Amanda was very nice and sweet. Kashy was so happy when we first arrived and he was excited to spend his day with her. Got some photos and a video of him enjoying her place and he seemed very comfortable there. Thank you for taking great care of our fur baby! We hope to have you watch him again in the future!
It was my first time dropping my fur baby off to Aishan & Bhumi and they did so amazing with my Sage. They constantly checked in with me , sent me pictures of Sage and treated my baby like she was thier own. I highly recommend Aishan & Bhumi to watch your fur baby. They will treat your baby with care. I even booked with them the next day 😊
Jeanette was an amazing dog sitter for my 8 month old puppy. She is very responsive, caring, and will make sure your pet has everything they need. She sends lots of great updates and is very flexible and accommodating to your pet's needs. My puppy had a very fun and relaxing time with Jeanette and Hunter!
Andrew was very accommodating and flexible with accepting Gabbie with short notice and timing. He was very transparent and helpful in conversations. He gave a tour of where Gabbie will be staying, which made us feel very comfortable. And he shared photos and messaged us throughout the day. Definitely recommend and would reach out again!
This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.
Absolutely AMAZING experience! Our dog was so well cared for and clearly loved every minute. We got great updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It’s such a relief finding someone we trust completely with our pup. Highly recommend, we will definitely be booking again and again!
Nala gets so excited every time I drop her off, which says everything about how amazing Darrin, Debra, and Emily are. They take wonderful care of her on an ongoing basis, always treating her like part of their family. I’m so grateful for the love and consistency they give her. Highly recommend! 🐾💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in East Orange on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 East Orange 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 11,379 sitters in East Orange, 87% 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.
