About: I've had pets for as long as I can remember: Hamster, Chinchillas, Ferrets, a cat & dogs and of course fish of all kinds. I've had my 2 rescues for almost 11 years. They are my children & are well taken care of! I am a full time teacher & work Monday-Friday from 8-3 so dog walking, ,my 2nd love will have to be on the weekends or after work. I'm really easy, kind of go with the flow & will do anything to help you with your pet! I currently work Monday-Friday from 8-3! Weekends, summer and after work are best & of course if i have a day off, I'd be happy to help you! I have a fenced in big backyard! My pets can sleep with me and are allowed on the furniture! I will love them like they are my own!
“Yesenia took excellent care of my five-year-old French Bulldog, Lewis. I’d give 6 stars if I could. I’m thoroughly satisfied with her service and highly recommend her for any pet care needs you may have.”


“Sandra and San were absolutely exceptional with our dog, Luna. From the moment we met them, it was clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. They went above and beyond in every aspect of Luna’s care. Their attention to safety and protection gave us complete peace of mind, and they took the time to learn every detail of her routine—from her meal schedule to her individual needs and preferences. They even asked for our veterinarian’s name and contact information in advance, which showed how prepared and responsible they are in case of an emergency. Throughout Luna’s stay, we knew she was in loving, capable hands. The level of care, professionalism, and genuine affection they showed her exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn’t recommend Sandra and San more highly. If you’re looking for people who will care for your dog as if they were their own, look no further. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Luna—we will absolutely be booking with you again!!”

“Lee K was great with my dog Bodi. Knowing that she was familiar with looking after senior dogs and giving medication made me feel comfortable using her pet sitting services. She took great care of Bodi, helping him as needed & provided me with many photos & videos so that I could see how he was doing while he was staying at her home. Upon picking him up I could tell he had a relaxing stay and was comfortable within her home and around her other dogs. We are looking forward to using Lee K again in the future!”

“Camila was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with photos and videos and took such great care of Winnie. Her dog Milo was also amazing—he and Winnie got along so well and played together perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again—couldn’t be happier with the experience!”

“Kun is such an amazing and caring dog sitter! He keeps us updated with texts, photos and videos. Our dog LoLa is always so happy to visit Kun, his lovely wife and Som their doggy! Highly recommend and can’t wait until next time !”

“Thank you so much for your wonderful care of my dog!! Moonyoung and her husband Sunhyung are so fantastic. Crystal really loved staying and playing with them. They took excellent care of my dog, ensuring she could rest in complete comfort after a tiring long distance journey. I am grateful for the unforgettable photos they have captured with truly exquisite skill. Best sitter ever!! Would definitely recommend!”

“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”

“Moody is a difficult dog sometimes and Monica and Kelvin seemed to have done a great job with him. It was our first time boarding him and he seems just the same as when we left him, no issues at all and Monica and Kelvin were very responsive and attentive.”


“Kate & Juan were absolutely wonderful. They loved our dog and gave her more attention then I think she's ever received. She's an extremely energetic 8 month old puppy. I know how much work it is to tire her out and they succeeded. They kept in constant contact with us as we were on our honeymoon in Mexico. We will definitely be bringing Crystal over again (even for a visit) if they will have us. This was such a weight off our shoulders being able to leave our most vulnerable family member with people who we knew would love and cherish her. I am forever grateful.”

“I had the pleasure of booking Kevin for a life-saving last minute booking and not only did he make it work with zero complaints but he was absolutely phenomenal with my little bud. Amazing with his communication as well as updates and pictures/videos ! I was so glad to hear that he was able to manage with such little time how to maneuver with my sometimes odd and overly energetic pup. Highly recommend to others and will be booking again 🥰”

“Mia took such great care of our dog. She was responsive leading up to it, and sent updates throughout his stay so we knew he was having a great time with her! We were very happy and will be sure to use Mia again, and highly recommend her!”

“Stephanie was an amazing Dogsitter. She kept in close contact and sent lots of pics which helped us feel comfortable and confident that Rosie was being loved and well cared for. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Carolina will be the only sitter for my dog from now on. She and her family truly cared for my dog during my family's vacation and i can't thank her enough! They are true dog lover! Thank you, Carolina for your care and service for my dog!!!”

“Jadea was amazing. I could tell Oreo loved her and she was so great about sending pictures and even continuing training her. She is also flexible and showed grace went I was delayed by traffic. Will be using her again for sure!”

“Karla is amazing!! This is the second time we left our dog under her supervision. She sent us updates every morning and evening which is so great. My dog is paralyzed and needs special attention, but she was so amazing with him. You could easily tell that he loves her. Thank you so much Karla for your patience with Fido!!!! You are THE BEST!!!!”

“Katherine has been so amazing with my girl Melly the last couple of stays. I had to change Melly’s stay from daycare to boarding due to weather and Katherine was so accommodating. My pup usually isn’t fond of new people but she truly loves Katherine. Strongly recommend!”

“Henry and Kyungwon did an excellent job watching Coco. They made sure her medicine was given on time and sent regular updates. Coco was calm and content when we returned. We plan to use Henry and Kyungwon again.”

“Shamel is my dogs new friend. He was very pleasant and keeps a very clean home. His wife is also very nice. I would 100 percent use him again. My dog came home happy and healthy”

“Christine was such a fantastic caretaker for our miniature schnauzer! Her two dogs were friendly and kept him busy all week and they looked like they had a lot of fun. I was sent plenty of fun pics and videos throughout my time away. Would definitely book again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Emerson
"Patience, empathy, and exceptional care!" This was our dog Juliette’s first time away from our family for six days, and she was extremely anxious at the start—hiding under the table, refusing to eat, and even growling out of fear during the first evening and morning. Carol and her family were unbelievably patient and understanding. Instead of forcing anything, they gave Juliette the time, space, and gentle presence she needed to feel safe. By the afternoon of the second day, Carol’s gentle approach paid off, and Juliette started coming out and settling in. Throughout the stay, Carol was cautious, attentive to all of Juliette's habits, and cared for her. Seeing how thoughtfully she handled Juliette who was really anxious and scared gave us total peace of mind. We couldn't be more grateful for Carol’s care and loving heart. Highly, highly recommended!

Hope was an amazing dog sitter for my Shiba Inu. Her space is clean, dog friendly both inside the house and outside with a fenced backyard, plus she is very friendly and loving towards the animals. She checked in multiple times per day with pictures and progress reports on eating/activity/and using the bathroom when hosting my pet. Rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with Hope. Thank you.

Ann was amazing with my dog, Mocha, during an overnight stay! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. Her communication was outstanding — I received updates and knew Mocha was in great hands the whole time. It’s clear Ann truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

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!

Lorena was such an amazing sitter for our two month old puppy. We were anxious to leave her for a week but when we met Lorena we knew Riley would be in good hands. Lorena sent us constant updates with pictures and videos throughout the week. We will 100% be back and I am sure Riley is already looking forward to it ☺️ can’t recommend Lorena enough 💗

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Emerson on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 14,134 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
