“We are so happy we found Keisy! She was calm and accommodating. She helped with navigating around rover as I was not familiar or any questions I had. She answered all questions I had.”
“Janise and her family took excellent care of my girl Moni. She sent regular updates and was quick to reply to my messages. Her home is in a nice neighborhood with a really nice sized yard with a fence that closes securely. Her dog Frankie is a sweet girl who got a long great with my pup. I was out of the country for a week and never once worried about my pup being safe and well cared for! I would happily leave my dog with her again and anyone reading this review can book her with confidence that your dog will be well cared for and safe.”
About: I am a caring, responsible, and dependable dog sitter who is passionate about providing pets with love, attention, and quality care. I understand the importance of keeping dogs safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I can assist with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care as instructed, and maintaining daily routines. My goal is to treat every dog with patience, kindness, and affection, just as I would my own, while giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their beloved companions are in good hands. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom of a 9 year old girl who’s in school and 4 year old cockapoo who spend her days sleep on the couch and sunbathing in the backyard. My schedule and weekly routine is wide open! All pets have total free range at my home. I have a fenced in backyard and doggy door so that they can come in and out as they pleased. I provide loving, attentive, and dependable care for every pet, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel at ease and build trust with them. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give their owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring and responsible hands.

“Chester, the big black Lab, had a great time at Anna's. He got along really well with Anna's dog. Anna has a nice fenced in yard for playtime and a perfect gated area for indoor time.

About: I’ve had 2 Labrador Retrievers since childhood so I understand their behavior, needs, and personalities. I’m attentive and patient, making sure each one feels safe and comfortable in a new environment. I keep their routine consistent, provide clean litter, fresh food and water, and give them the right balance of attention and space. I’m available most days, including weekends, and can accommodate same-day bookings. I’m home often, so your pet will get plenty of attention, regular walks, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day.

I always follow the owner’s instructions, keep routines consistent, and give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. Your pet will be treated like part of the family.
“I am so happy to have found Jenny and Geoff! They took wonderful care of my 75-lb dog, Sawyer. After checking to make sure that he’d enjoy it, they gave him lots of play time with their kids and other dogs and treated him to multiple trips to the dog park. He started to show signs of an ear infection the day before I had to drop him off, and they were so kind about cleaning his ears twice a day. And they sent me daily photos and videos of him playing and cuddling. I was pretty sure that he wouldn’t want to come home again! Highly recommend!!”
“Ruby had the time of her life at Brittny's. She was SMILING in photos Brittny sent us. Brittny has a great home with an amazing backyard for the dogs to play in. Her family dog was a great sibling for Ruby. I think Ruby misses Benji! Thank you Brittny and your whole family for taking such good care of our girl. Will definitely board Ruby with you again in the future if possible!”
“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care.

My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”
“I highly recommend this family! They took exceptional care of my dog and treated her as if she were part of their own family. While I was away, they consistently sent daily photo updates, which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to see how happy and comfortable she was in their care. They are a warm, friendly, and genuinely hospitable family who clearly love animals. It was evident that they paid close attention to her needs, routine, and comfort. Knowing she was in such a caring and attentive environment made being away much easier. I would absolutely trust them again and confidently recommend them to anyone looking for responsible and compassionate pet caregivers.”

Nala was very well taken care of, receiving so much love and attention during her stay. They provided detailed updates and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. They took her on plenty of walks, and their kids were so kind and sweet to Nala. I felt completely comfortable leaving her in their care and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and attentive sitter. We would happily book with them again.
We had a great experience with her! She was very responsive and sent us photos of my dog every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated that she took care of his medications as well. We’re very happy with the care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
We had such a wonderful experience! They sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. The whole family is so loving and caring, and it’s clear how much they genuinely love dogs. They even prepared extra blankets for Pepper because they were worried he might get cold. They were so thoughtful and attentive to every little detail. We’re so grateful for the love and care they gave Pepper and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
Brittany and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper. From the updates she shared to the care and attention they gave him, we could tell he was genuinely loved and treated like part of their family. Honestly, I think Cooper was a little sad to leave them! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for and loved just as he would be at home with us. Brittany truly became an extension of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Cooper again. Thank you, Brittany and family!
I booked Hope to board Walter at her home overnight when I had a wedding to attend! We did a meet and greet before the overnight visit and Hope showed me where Walter would sleep and spend the day! It was reassuring to know she had a gate to keep Walter and his puppy antics contained. During the actual stay she sent many cute pictures of Walter enjoying his stay. She also cleaned his eyes for me and gave me some grooming tips for him! He came home looking even better than when I dropped him off!! I would definitely book with her again! :)
Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Emerson is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $70 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 14,255 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Emerson. About 88% of Emerson sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
