Caroline took absolutely amazing care of my puppy. She kept sending us photos and videos of him while in her care. He came back super happy with his time off ?. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be taking her up on future opportunities for care!

About: I’m a stay at home mom with too many years experience caring for dogs and puppies to count! Our home is a dog’s dream vacation. We have a friendly dog who loves company, two small kids who adore playing with pups, and a spacious fenced in yard perfect for romping around. Your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be part of our family while you’re away. I am a stay at home mom of two elementary school kids , so my schedule is pretty flexible and gives me time to show your sweet pups all the attention and love they need. I have a spacious fenced in yard where your pups can run around and play in. It’s my goal to make your dog feel as loved and safe as they do at home.

About: I love animals and have experience working with and sitting for a wide range of them, including dogs, cats, and small or exotic animals. I myself have owned over twenty parrots (currently have two in the aviary!) and have extensive experience with fishkeeping — I have four cycled, walstad fish and shrimp tanks! I can walk your dog, clean your cat’s litter box, and even do water changes for your fish if needed! Anything to make sure your little guys are well cared for! I’m a graduate student who will be free over the summer, so my schedule is flexible until late August. I can make myself and my home available as needed. I live in a townhome that features a large, lush, and open neighborhood to walk your dogs in. My home has two floors; the first floor is where your pet will stay. When your pet is in my home, they are treated like members of my family. They will be fed, walked, and enriched on your schedule, and will be allowed to sit on the couch and even sleep in my bed at nights if comfortable. I take great care to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and fun-filled. In my home, I currently have two budgies in a large cage and two betta fish, each in 5-10 gallon tanks. The parrots are allowed to free fly for most of the day, but they will be put away or kept caged when your pets are being boarded. When I am in your home, I cultivate the utmost respect. I try not to disturb or move anything that’s not necessary. I’ll make use of only what’s given to me with regards to caring for your pet, and leave everything else exactly how I found it.

My 4 dogs had the best time with Dhruvit and his family over the long weekend. Our dogs have never been away from us so finding a great dog lover/sitter was not easy. When I saw all the reviews for Dhruvit I knew I found a match for Spencer, Nathan, Winston and Cooper. Dhruvit sent pictures everyday and that just made our time away more enjoyable as we didn’t have to worry. We will definitely use Dhruvit in the future. It’s all about fur babies and if they are happy then we are happy. Thank You again.

About: I work from home 5 days a week which will allow your dog to get constant attention and love. Having cared for my own dog I understand how difficult it is to leave with someone else. I currently work from home 5 days a week and will be able to attend to your dogs needs. I can take them out for plenty of potty breaks. Since I work from home your dog will get plenty of attention. I live in a very dog friendly community that is great for walks. I will always keep your dog on a secure leash whenever outdoors.

I was so happy to find Yanina. I have two older dogs (an 11 year old ~50 lb retriever mix and a 12 year old ~80 lb bully mix). Normally folks are intimidated by the size with no inclination to get to know my dogs. Yanina and her hubby were so kind to my babies and treated them so well. I got some fantastic photos and videos and my dogs were smiling and so happy!

About: Hi, I’m AnnMarie! I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, but really started understanding the love and care they need when I got my first cat and first dog at 7 years old. I grew up with Labrador retrievers, a blue front Amazon parrot, cats, frogs, fish, hermit crabs, and some others I’m definitely forgetting as I write this. I currently have a dog named Maple, a spunky, confident, and affectionate 1.5 year old corgi who would love a few more friends like your dog or cat! She grew up in a home with a ton of other dogs and cats and is always up for playdates and sleepovers. I’m capable of providing whatever your animal needs - a long (or short) walk, playtime, snuggles on the couch, meals, and commands/trick reinforcement. I also have experience administering medications to dogs and cats, including eye drops, and can manage other normally challenging health conditions or issues. I currently work full time but have availability in the evenings (usually after 6pm) on weekdays for drop in visits or walks, and most weekends are completely free for boarding, day care, drop ins, or walks! I frequently update my calendar to give clients the best idea of my availability. If you don’t see something/the dates you’re looking for, please reach out and we can discuss. I have an extremely friendly dog to keep yours company, but if the preference would be separation between yours and mine, that works perfectly fine too! I have a spacious apartment with multiple bedrooms, and while I don’t have a yard, I do have access to a rooftop dog run! I’m also a short drive from a huge park, where I frequently walk my dog, otherwise I keep walks local.

Oh my God, what should I say about this wonderful person, ISBATH, who looked after our Ace. Our dog is a single master dog and really a protector type. I was little hesitant to take him to meet Ms. Isbath. I don’t know, she may be some kind of magical approach. I never heard a single growl from Ace, which was really surprising. The day I dropped him to Isbath’s house, gradually Ace become a family member. The day I dropped Ace, Ms. Isbath send me plenty of photos and videos to update the boarding. My family and I are very much happy to Isbath and her family to look after our Ace and once we picked him up from Ace, he joined back to our family. I am sure that Ace also got a very excited and awesome vacation. We will definitely recommend Isbath and family. Once again thank you Isbath and Thank you Rover. May God Bless us all.

As first-time users of dogsitting (we just adopted our 8-year old Beau 2 years ago), we couldn't have been better served by Monica and her family. They have a wonderful set-up for dog care - big, multilevel home, huge fenced backyard, and very pet-friendly throughout, along with a dear, patient older dog who is very happy sharing her "den" with her visiting buddies. Monica shared regular photos and reports, and was so clearly loving and enthusiastic about caring for our guy - giving him his daily medication and welcoming all of my (um, very detailed) instructions about his routine. We will definitely be repeat customers.

My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!

Holly and DK have been great so far with our (sometimes needy) corgi Moose! Moose has been to daycare a few times and stayed overnight for a long weekend and he seems to enjoy and come home happy. Holly & DK are a lovely young couple who communicate quickly and thoroughly, are flexible about pick up/drop off times, and always send us a handful of cute pictures. We've also noticed they go above and beyond to return food bowls, kongs, and blankets back cleanly. We're happy we found them and look forward to having Moose stay with them in the future!

Wan Yi is amazing. This was our first time being apart from our cat Loki. We were very worried that she would think we had abandoned her and be depressed. The first half hour with Wan Yi and Loki was so comfortable that she was playing and going in for cuddles. We got pictures and videos to still feel connected. Best decision I have made this year.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Fanwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Fanwood on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 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 13,569 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fanwood. About 88% of Fanwood 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.
