“Alison was wonderful! I feel confident that my pup was treated like family and was comfortable and loved the entire time we were away. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“This was Bubba’a second time with Beth and she is AMAZING. I drove an extra hour before my trip just so bubba could stay with her. She is always sending updates and if she has any concerns or questions is sure to ask before preceding. I can also contact her and she’s quick to respond during the day. So thankful to have found her to watch my boy! Will be returning next time too!”
“Kristin always provides updates on our elderly girl, Mya. She gives Mya meds when needed. And she tries hard to find ways to get our picky girl to eat her food. We can relax while Mya is in Kristin’s care know she is a great caretaker!”
“Anjaliben was an excellent host for my fur babies Bear and Chubbs. From our first meeting I knew that I made the right decision with how welcoming she was. Bear and Chubbs were calm themselves for being with someone besides our family. This was a first time boarding experience for them and I. Medication was also given without any problems. I would highly recommend Anjaliben for her services that she provides. Bear and Chubbs have found their second home for vacations away from home.”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“Aubrey was a wonderful boarder for our dog, Pato! She sent fun updates and pictures regularly and communicated pick up and drop off clearly. We were nervous about how he would interact with her daycare dogs but she was patient and introduced him slowly and Pato seemed to have a great time. We will definitely be using Aubrey in the future!”
“Brutus had so much fun at the Furry Farm! After we met Kirk and his dogs at the meet and greet, we knew Brutus would be very comfortable there. We received many pictures and updates while we were away. Brutus also got a bath before we picked him up! We are very happy with our choice, and we will book again the next time we go away!”
“Shelanne was great! Bagel enjoyed her stay and I appreciated the updates and Shelanne picking up and dropping off Bagel which made it much easier for me to handle my work travel on schedule. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“She was amazing. Going into this we had problems finding a sitter because our puppy has special eating,Eileen found them to be not a problem at all. She constantly sent updates, videos and pictures of our pup so we knew how she was doing. She takes her job to a whole different level and loves the animals as if they were her own. Would definitely leave our puppy with her again.”
“Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰”
“Rose was great with my two dogs over this past weekend! They were happy and loved the whole time and the communication was great! She sent multiple pictures to update me. We will definitely board with Rose again!”
“As always, Adrienne was amazing with our dog George! This is the third time that we have had him stay with her, and each time we are so happy with the service that she provides. George was well care for and loved while we were away on a nine day trip. When our flight got canceled and we were stuck in another country for an extra day, Adrienne was more than accommodating. We will definitely be using her for our next trip.”
“John and his family were absolutely wonderful with Jaxon. They included him in all their daily activities and adventures. He sent plenty of photos and video updates throughout my vacation. Jaxon even dropped a little winter weight with his daily walks! I couldn’t recommend better care for your furbaby!”
“Sarah and her family are AWESOME. I knew during my trip that Finley was in good hands and was having a blast. Sarah sent so many pictures throughout the stay and the yard is awesome for the pups to all play in. So happy I dropped Finley with Sarah, her care was great!”
“Rebecca and Ozzie were great with my dog Bear who was a first-time boarder. He was anxious and withdrawn at first (that’s his personality when he’s not used to new places), but he eventually settled in and did fine! They were very reassuring, helpful, and kind. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring Bear back to them in the future!”
“Juliana was truly a godsend, I can’t imagine leaving Milton with anyone else, she took amazing care of him, sent us photos and updates everyday and truly made it feel like he was staying with extended family ❤️ she treated him like one of her own dogs and we will absolutely be using her for all of our future trips!”
“I’ve boarded Murphy with April and her family 2x and it’s been a great experience. She always keeps me up to date with how he’s doing and he takes very long naps when he gets home - that tells me he had a lot of fun. Murphy is looking forward to his next stay!!!”

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 .

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 Elmer 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 Elmer 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 Elmer 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 Elmer.
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 Elmer 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.
