“Jessica is the best! We left our Harper with her while we were on vacation for 1 week. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Harper was in such good hands. We received updates and pictures every couple of hours. Jessica helped harper with her puppy nipping, leash training, and eating from the bowl. So overwhelmingly happy with the care Harper received.”
“This is my 4th time using Ekaterina and her family and they are all so wonderful! They are the only people I trust to leave my Loretta with. She constantly sends pictures and updates. My Loretta gets endless love, kisses, and snuggles with her children! If you want the best possible care and love for your pet, please go with Ekaterina!”
“Bonnie and her family are amazing! Sesame is an anxious baby, but everyone in her family gave him so much love and hugs that he immediately settled in. Bonnie shared many photos with me throughout his stay so I could see how he was doing. She was also very communicative, especially about his meals, since he’s a picky eater who’s not very good about finishing his food. She and her family really went above and beyond to care for him! I would totally stay with her again!!!”
“Our 8year old doggy had her first visit here and jumped out and ran to the door excitedly as if she came everyday. Seuron and DK took Lulu out for walks and showered her with love. They are the nicest couple! We got lots of updates and we were at ease immediately. Lulu settled in right away. We highly recommend Seuron and DK! We plan to be repeat clients.”
“This was the first time we have used Rover for overnight boarding our 5 year old rescue (puppy mill momma) - Lina. Lisa and Albert and their family were so wonderful with her. Sending pictures and updating us on her eating and sleeping. Lisa even made special meal to entice Lina to eat. Our little pupper can be anxious, and Lisa was very supportive. We have a much longer family vacation upcoming, and know that our Lina will be in the best hands. Thank you Lisa and family!!!!”
“Our dog Monster had a fantastic stay with Michelle. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her family for 9 days while we were away. She provided multiple updates throughout our trip, and it was easy to tell Monster was having a great time. Highly recommend!”
“Once again Bhavani was a perfect host for our Bernedoodle. She followed all our instructions and special requests and sent us video/pictures updates several times a day, so we were always informed and at ease during our vacation. We could not be happier with Bhavani’s services and will definitely use her again for our next trip out of town.”
“Margarita did an outstanding job taking care of our dog for a week. She’s extremely caring and treated our dog like part of her family. She communicated with me while we were traveling so I had regular updates and photos/videos. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely use her services again.”
“Our pup had a great stay at Lucas and Kathrine’s! We were constantly updated throughout the stay with pictures and videos. It looked like he had a blast! Our pup will definitely be staying there again!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Cocoa was so well cared for, and it was clear he felt happy, comfortable, and loved. Their whole family, including the kids, was involved in caring for him, which made for such a warm and welcoming environment. We really appreciated the updates and the attention they gave him. We’d absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“Julissa was awesome! She truly treated my dog like he was her own. She kept in contact with me daily with updates and pictures and videos, which I very much appreciated. She spent time with my dog, taking him for a walks, to play at the dog park, and out on adventures, which was very good for him and helped with socializing him. I recommend if you’re looking for a dog sitter or walker! I look forward to using her in the near future.”
“I am very happy with Caroline, she was very welcoming and we did a visit before actual booking. This was my fist time using this service. I definitely RECOMMEND booking Caroline she was amazing she sends plenty of updates and photos. My Hart had an awesome time. Thank you Caroline you are the best.❤️❤️👏🏽👏🏽”
“Megan and Nick created the most comfortable home away from home for Brady. He came home so happy and energetic. We got regular updates and pictures which was comforting to know he was doing well throughout our trip. We would for sure recommend them and book them to watch Brady again.”
“Nan is a warm and caring person, and one of the best pet sitter I’ve ever met. She not only takes excellent care of the dogs but also provides them with companionship, making them feel completely at home. The nearby park is convenient for playtime, and unlike some dog sitter ，she gives dogs plenty of space to roam freely. Her family also loves dogs and treats them as friends. You can trust Nan wholeheartedly with your dog’s care.”
“Our Winston had a great day with Marlene! She was very attentive to him and had excellent communication before and during his stay. We are looking forward to having Winston stay with her again in the future!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Josh took amazing care of our Bichon Frise, Quartz, for two weeks and even accommodated an extra day when our plans changed. It was clear that Quartz was well cared for, loved, and treated like family. Josh was dependable, communicative, and made the entire process convenient and stress-free. We truly appreciate his flexibility and the excellent care he provided. We will definitely use Josh again for future dog care needs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Josh! 🐾”
“An absolutely wonderful experience! Leo was treated like family and came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. The communication was excellent, with updates and pictures that made us at ease. We truly appreciate the love and attention given to Leo. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Laxmi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person and a place 😊”
“We knew immediately when Sedona walked into Zuzel's home again and ran up and gave her several kisses that she would have another amazing stay. Our Sedona is such an important member of our family, it is so reassuring to know that when we are away from her she is getting the best care possible. Zuzel and Zia, we can't thank you enough for all the love, care and attention you showered on Sedona!”

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! Amarilis was kind, responsible, and attentive, and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. Tyson was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave Tyson. I would definitely recommend Amarilis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Jessica is the most wonderful rover dog sitter ever!! Responsive and always updating with cute pictures. My Lola is in the best hands ever when I go away. Truly appreciate her and her husband for taking care of my baby. We moved 40mins away and we could not find a new rover sitter that even compares to her. Highly recommend ♥️
My dog loves boarding here! He’s stayed twice and both times came home happy and well loved. I received plenty of photo updates throughout his stay and always knew he was being well taken care of. He needs pills with his meals and that was never a problem. My dog can’t wait to go back!
Our dog Monster had a fantastic stay with Michelle. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her family for 9 days while we were away. She provided multiple updates throughout our trip, and it was easy to tell Monster was having a great time. Highly recommend!
Lakshmi took care of my Ruby for a couple of weeks and she did such an amazing job caring for her. She sent me photos and videos everyday and made sure Ruby was getting all the attention she needed to feel comfortable with her and her family. I would 100% book with Lakshimi again. Thanks you Lakshimi for treating Ruby like she was part of your family.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Melodie! She watched our dog, Hunter, for two weeks, and we couldn't have asked for better care. From the very beginning—even before we officially booked—she opened her home to us and completely set our minds at ease about how he would do. Hunter was incredibly happy, well cared for, and treated like family the entire time. Most importantly, he got to make some new friends during his stay, which he absolutely loved and enjoyed so much! While we were away, she kept us constantly updated with photos and videos of his adventures, which we deeply appreciated. It was so comforting to see him happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Melodie truly goes above and beyond, and we will absolutely be counting on her for future stays. Highly, highly recommend!
Rosary was so great with our 5 year old dog, Allen. He’s a rescue and is hesitant with new people, but Rosary was extra gentle and loving with him. She even cooked him meals daily without me asking! I think our dog was actually sad to come home! We will definitely book again and highly recommend.
Richard and Kate are amazing dog parents and dog sitters, I left my pup with them for a week , they took very good care of him and treated him as their own.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fanwood on Rover is $57.72 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Fanwood 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 Fanwood 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 Fanwood 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 Fanwood.
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 Fanwood 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.
