“Vanessa took the best care of our 20 week old puppy during his first stay away from us. She went above and beyond to reassure us and even help with some training along the way to improve his leash skills. We are so grateful to have had such a wonderful and knowledgeable person take care of our baby. We will be sure to reach out to Vanessa again to watch Leo for future overnight visits. Plenty of updates and pictures to help provide added ease of mind. Thank you Vanessa ?????”
“Stephanie is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had. She has been caring for our 9-year-old, 19-pound Schnoodle, Archie, for over five years now. We travel frequently—taking about six trips and spending six to eight weeks away each year—and Stephanie has been our trusted, go-to sitter for every single one of those stays. Her home provides a safe, joyful, and engaging environment. Archie loves socializing in the playful pack atmosphere she creates with the other small dogs (usually 4 to 6 guests). Throughout every stay, Stephanie keeps us completely connected with wonderful daily photo updates and brief reports on how he is doing, eating, and playing. Stephanie is exceptionally experienced, attentive, and reliable. While Archie is in great health, we have complete confidence that if an unexpected medical situation ever arose, she has the knowledge, calm judgment, and capability to handle it swiftly. Leaving for our cruise vacations is truly worry-free because we know Archie is receiving the highest standard of love and care. Every single visit deserves five stars—we cannot recommend Stephanie highly enough!”
“Kerri and Harry are incredibly attentive, patient and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Daisy will be going back, so long as they'll have her.”
About: Hi, I’m Angie! My husband and I share a calm, child-free home with no resident pets. I only care for pets from one household at a time, providing a peaceful, personalized experience with plenty of individual attention and no unfamiliar pets around. I work from home, allowing me to keep your pet’s normal routine consistent with companionship, walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and plenty of time to relax throughout the day. We also have a park just a two-minute walk away! I grew up around rescue dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens through my mom’s volunteer work and previously worked for a mobile veterinarian. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, needs, routines, and personalities. I have a special soft spot for herding breeds—especially Aussies! I’m familiar with their intelligence, energy, sensitivity, and wonderfully quirky personalities. Our home is especially well suited for senior pets, shy or anxious pets, and those accustomed to being the only pet at home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, send regular photo updates, and do my best to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their home away from home. ☺️ I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the day for companionship, walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and quiet time. There’s also a park just a two-minute walk from my home, making outdoor time easy to incorporate into your pet’s normal routine. My husband and I share a clean, calm, child-free home with no resident pets, allowing your pet to settle in peacefully and receive plenty of individual attention. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send regular pictures and updates. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll treat their space respectfully and carefully follow all household and safety instructions.
“Samantha was great. My dog is pretty anxious, but Samantha made her feel comfortable, and my dog seemed perfectly happy when I picked her up. I would be happy to book with Samantha again.”
“Jia watched my dog, Tara last Tuesday night. I was apprehensive of course , leaving her with someone new but my fears were definitely unfounded. She sent several pics showing me what Tara was up to all night, & in every photo, Tara looked thrilled. I was then able to enjoy my night out with no concerns for her welfare. Can’t wait to use her again! Highly recommend her! She’s wonderful.”
“Lauren and Derrick were the absolute best. I felt very comfortable with them when I went to meet them for the meet and greet before my dogs stay. Their house was clean their pets were well mannered and friendly and they sent me many pictures during my dogs stay. they are true pet lovers and I would recommend them over and over. They will be my first option anytime I am looking for pet boarding.”
“Meena and her husband are very responsible dog sitter. They sent photos of Sunny although it was just 1 day stay. They accommodated my request as well. I definitely like to my dog stay Meena's place in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience. I currently serve as an active board member for a non-profit rescue and have a passion for providing attentive, reliable care to every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with medication administration, basic veterinary care, and handling animals with different personalities and needs. At home, I have my Aussie, Harley, plus a fully fenced one-acre yard perfect for safe play and exercise. I’m active, dependable, and excited to provide loving care! I currently have a flexible work schedule with ability to WFH. Walks available weekdays and weekends and boarding available in my home ! ! ! My yard is about a half acre fully fenced in, trails behind which I am able to take dogs on walks and a quiet private cul de sac for walks. I have a 5yr old Australian Shepherd who is very playful and always looking for friends , but is respectful of the boundaries of another dog if they do not like to play.
“I couldn’t even possibly describe all my happiness in one post. They are the most phenomenal sitters! This was my first time using rover and they were so kind and described the process. From the meet and greet to the drop off and pick up all with ease. They sent so many pics!! And it truly put me to ease. They made me feel like I was leaving my dogs with family instead. I will definitely be working with them in the future without a doubt! And we love their dog Neo and their wonderful family!! The thought you put into taking care of them was just amazing!!!”
“Kristen took excellent care of Spencer for over a week. The worst part of going away is leaving Spencer behind but it was comforting to not have to worry about him knowing that he was safe and getting plenty of attention from Kristen and her daughter. It was evident from the daily pictures that he felt at home with them. I would not hesitate to have Spencer stay there again.”
“Jenny is an amazing dog sitter. I received communication and photos throughout each day. Our Shiba Inu was very well cared for by Jenny and her husband. I would highly recommend Jenny!”
“Ollie had the best little vacation with Thana & Subangi. Thana & Subangi’s multiple daily updates were such a comfort to us while we were in another country. They made the distance feel smaller. Everything was organized, simple, and thoughtful. We trust Thana & Subangi fully and will highly recommend them to anyone who wants their pup cared for with genuine love!”
“Anwar was great, we left him with 2 young high energy 60 lb dogs for over 2 weeks and they came back happy, healthy with no issues, he responded quickly whilst we were in a different time zone, recommend and will use again.”
“Anmol and Trupti are such lovely caring people. Their home is set up so the dogs are safe and well taken care of. Maddie is an older dog who doesn’t do sleepovers very often and she did great with them. We were always in touch with photos,videos and texts. Maddie came home happy and tired. We will Definately be using them again for Maddie’s and our peace of mind”
“Gabriela is one of Barkley’s favorite sitters. She loves the whole family and gets so excited when I drop her off. It’s a great comfort when someone loves your dog as much as you do. I never worry when Barkley is there. I’ve already scheduled more time with her because of that.”

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Fort Dix can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fort Dix home-away-from-home, 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 Fort Dix.
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 Fort Dix 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 , 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 .
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.
