“Gerry is so sweet and takes great care of my pup! My dog comes home very happy after her time with Gerry. I am so thankful for the love and care she gives to my girl!”
“Darya provided daycare for Watson for a week. Watson, who can sometimes have separation anxiety, was excited to see Darya every morning. Their dog Coco is a very nice dog and I was happy Watson would have a friend.”
“Carly and her husband know exactly how to help my nervous dog, Nomi feel safe and comfortable while away from home. Thank you so much for taking care of my special girl today! 💗”
“We had a great experience with Somya! We were coming for an event from out of state, so we were nervous about not knowing the lay of the land and how everything would work out, but Somya made it easy with great communication! Our dog was also in a strange place and had just been on on 3 hour car journey, and when we received him back at the end of the drop-in, he was well balanced and happy. Thanks so much Sonmya!”
“Dropped Milo off for a say and couldn’t have been more happier about it. Debi kept updating me with pictures and videos of him throughout the day. The best part was seeing him so happy and enjoying himself in the huge backyard. Overall a very good experience and would definitely go back to her again.”
“Oscar had a great time at their house. My dog loves to be out and their huge backyard was something that my dog loved the most and played with other dogs. They share a lot of pictures and videos and keep me updated throughout the day. They take care of my dog like their own and I would definitely rebook with them”
“I can’t express enough how wonderful Sara was with our little Peanut. I had come to grips with the fact that I probably won’t be able to go anywhere this summer because I didn’t want to take my dog somewhere where they would crate her or where she would be with a bunch of other dogs until I found Sara. She was absolutely wonderful and she treated her like one of the family. She only takes one dog or one household of pets at a time which makes me feel even more comfortable. My puppy absolutely adored her and her family and so did I! Thank you Sara for all your did. I know you will see Peanut every time we are away or even just out for the day like we did today.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my own pup for over 6 years! I’ve got familiarity with crate-training and teaching them new tricks. For chill dogs, I’m more than happy just hanging out on a couch watching tv together. And for more active pups, I love to long distance run and am very comfortable jogging with dogs up to 70 lbs. I currently work remotely 3-4 days a week, and with a pretty flexible schedule. Barring the occasional mandatory meeting, I work my own hours so there’s plenty of time to spend with your pup. Hi, I'm Karan! When I lived in Jersey City, my brother, his wife, and I shared a dog named Luna. We raised her together for a little under 7 years, and got her when she was 9 months old. She was part of my everyday life: morning walks, couch time, and teaching her new tricks! When I moved out, we decided she'd stay with my brother. She bonded with him, and he was moving into a new home with his wife and soon-to-be son. It was the right call, but I really miss having a furry friend around. My schedule doesn't allow for a dog of my own right now, and that's a big part of why I'm on Rover! Rover lets me give our furry friends the love and care they deserve while you're away, and it keeps animals in my life. I'll treat your dog the way I'd want someone to treat Luna! With patience, affection, and lots of head scratches. For boarding: Your pup will have plenty of room to stretch out at my place. I live in a spacious four-bedroom apartment with a balcony, and there's a dog park and lots of grass right outside, so potty breaks and playtime are only steps away. For longer walks, there's a much bigger park a few miles away that's great for exploring. For house-sitting: I work remotely most days, and I'm happy to work from your home if you'd like. I'll follow their usual feeding and walk schedule, and give you regular updates on their mood, how walks went, and all other info you’d like!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends and family.

I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and great areas for walks. My backyard is not fenced, so dogs will always be supervised and kept safely on a leash while outside.

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for dogs, caring for others and many years of hands-on experience caring for my own. My beloved Yorkshire Terrier was part of my family for 17 wonderful years. She was truly my baby, and caring for her throughout every stage of life—from playful puppy days to her senior years—taught me patience, attentiveness, and how deeply our pets rely on us. While I’m not quite ready to welcome another dog of my own just yet, I would love the opportunity to share my time and affection with your pup. I understand that dogs are family, and I will treat yours with the same love, care, and attention I gave my own. I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who will make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while just for a day or if you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day to give dogs the attention, care, and companionship they need. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. Your dog’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I provide a loving, and secure environment where your pet will be treated like family. I’m happy to take dogs on walks and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I can also crate your dog while not home if that is part of their normal routine and something that makes them feel comfortable. I will always follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay on their usual schedule and feel as relaxed as possible while in my care.
“Sonia did a great job taking care of Bella for the day. And she sent several videos and pictures of Bella throughout the day. I will be scheduling day care again with Sonia”
About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Etra
Chelsea was wonderful with Abby! Before her stay, we met with Chelsea and her dogs to make sure everyone got along. Chelsea was very responsive and kept us updated with photos, so we knew she was happy and doing well. We felt comfortable leaving Abby with Chelsea and would book her again!
Sowmya and Gaurav were wonderful! They graciously accommodated our last-minute request and were extremely flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. They were communicative, reliable, and so kind throughout. Mello was clearly well cared for, and we couldn't be more grateful for their help. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and accommodating sitters!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Etra is $37 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $40 per day. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,569 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Etra. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Etra 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,569 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
