“Gabriela did an amazing job taking care of our Diesel for 4 days while we were on vacation. She was caring, responsible, and made sure Diesel was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Diesel and treated him like her own. We came back to a happy and well-cared-for dog! I highly recommend Gabriela to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dependable dog sitter. We would definitely have her take care of Diesel again! ❤️🐾”
“Sujanna was great to Sidney and great to work with!! She sent multiple updates and pictures every day. I could tell that Sidney was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Sujanna as a dog sitter and look forward to using her again.”
“I can’t thank Carol enough for taking such great care of my fur baby while I was away!! He was very comfortable staying with her and was definitely pampered. I only hope she’s available to watch him any time I need to leave town.”
“Jillian and her husband were fantastic with our 5 month old puppy! I would highly recommend them to all that may be in need of a sitter for their dog. We will definitely be calling on them in the future.”
“Joe and his family took exceptional care of our two dogs! Communication was excellent from when we first reached out, through Apache and Loki's stay at their wonderful home. Joe's family was attentive to our dogs' needs, and made them feel right at home. They were great with sending pictures at various points throughout the day as well! 100% would book with this wonderful family again!”
“I highly recommend Kelly! My dog was visibly happier to stay with Kelly compared to other previous boarding facilities we have used in the area where he was left isolated for long periods of time. If you have a doodle, they won't be alone.”
“Lynn did an excellent job with my dog Riggs. She provided me with daily updates and pictures during his stay. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will definitely reach out to her again when I need a sitter again.”
“Our dogs were very well while staying at Vivian and Katia’s house. They followed all the instructions related to food, walks, etc and we received plenty of pictures during the days we were gone. Katia was very kind and sweet with the dogs and they look happy and resting calmly all the time.”
“Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!”
“Jonathan is awesome. I highly recommend him! I had to have surgery and needed time to recover. I was so lucky to find him. I didn’t worry about my doggie once!! ?”
“Jaylene is a wonderful and kind petsitter! She comes over to check on our two cats and has created a bond with both of them, despite them being shy sometimes. We have a Great Pyrenees mix that she boards in her home and we can tell he has a great time! Jaylene is always flexible, communicative, and super helpful. Thanks again, Jaylene!”
About: I am a true animal lover and I would treat your animals as my own. I have lots of pet care experience from having my own of 2 cats and 1 dog and taking care of some friends. I have done 2 years of pet therapy with my own dog and completed basic to advanced dog training. I have volunteered for father john animal house and eleventh hour rescue to get some shelter experience and more dog exposure. I would prefer to work with small to medium dog size. My second hobby is animal training which is a rewarding experience to me from dog socialization to learning basic commands. I just love working with dogs and is rewarding in seeing the dog learned the command. As i like to walk daily, pets fit into my daily schedule perfectly. Our daily morning schedule usually 7 days a week is potty upon awakening, breakfast and playtime upon first hour. Then a morning walk and another one around dinner time. I have a unfenced yard but believe exercise is a high requirement for the dog. What i do in place is 2 daily neighborhood walks and take her occasionally to local parks to walk around for different smells and meet other friendly dogs. Also believe in going to any local dog events for shelters to give dog interactions/ socialization.
“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“Great sitter. My dog, who is usually nervous about being with strangers, just love being with Trista. I've used her at least once a month for the last 5 months, since I moved to the area and am glad I found her through Rover.”
About: Hello! I’m a huuuuuge “Dog Person”. :) You can rest assured that your pup will receive tons of attention/care/love from me while you’re away! Long-time dog lover/parent here!! We have used Rover’s services in the past, and it’s time to return the favor. (We are pup-less right now.) The human-dog connection fascinates me. I work from home, but I am not chained to my desk, so I will be able to care for your pup throughout the day. He/she will be safe and secure here in our home. Your pup will be leashed any time we leave the house. We will make any adjustments or accommodations to support your dog’s personality, comfort, or needs. Experienced with all life stages, from puppy to senior.
“We had a wonderful experience with Eunice. She took such great care of our dog and made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the stay. It was clear from the updates and photos that our dog was happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the kindness, attention, and genuine affection she showed. It was such a relief to know our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Eunice again and highly recommend them her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“This was the best dog sitting experience we have ever had, by far!! Jake and Mischa went above and beyond anything we could have expected, and took great care of our pup. We have a Saint Bernard who can be a bit much for some, but Jake and Mischa were amazing with him! They also put our minds at ease with how well they handled his food allergies and medicine. Finally, they were great with sending pictures/videos and keeping us updated. Archie can’t wait to go back and play with his buddy Chopper!”
“Ryan and the rest of his family took incredible care of our 5 month old puppy while we were out of town. From the first message, we could instantly tell Ryan was going to be a fantastic sitter. Communication and care were top notch, and we were surprised every night with a highlight reel from their activities of the day so we never felt out of the loop with the adventures they had gotten into. Before the visit was over, we had already rebooked him for another upcoming stay. Would highly recommend trusting Ryan with your fur babies, thank you so much!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Franklin
Daisy’s first stay with Lin was a success! I will definitely be bringing her back. Lin was wonderful and sent a couple of video updates during Daisy’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind and let me see that Daisy was doing great. I also had the chance to meet Lin’s mother, who was equally kind and welcoming. You can tell they both genuinely love animals. Daisy felt comfortable and relaxed, and she was happy when I picked her up. One thing that really stood out to me… she even ate all of her dinner! Knowing Daisy, I honestly wouldn’t have been surprised if she skipped a meal in a new environment, so that was a really good sign that she felt at ease. I’m so happy we found Lin and would absolutely recommend her!
Lin was amazing with Peri. He was very happy in all the photos and videos I received! They spent a lot of time together walking and playing. I ran into a bit of an issue with my painter needing more days and Lin immediately stepped up and offered to keep Peri another two days. What a lifesaver ! She’s wonderful and sweet. Do not hesitate to leave your babies with her. They’ll be loved 🥰

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.

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Franklin. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Franklin 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
