Hopefully in the future if needs arrives Ji will be able to take care of Lulu again.”

As an outdoor cat, finding someone who could care for Juno, with safety as the first priority, but also allow her to retain her sense of freedom and independence was always going to be a tough ask. We found that with Veronica - would highly recommend! Very kind, sent us lots of photos and even got Juno some special treats and toys.”

“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”

“Primavera was absolutely amazing with Max! From the moment she started caring for him, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about making sure he felt comfortable, safe, and loved. She took the time to get to know Max, understand his personality, routines, and needs, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how communicative she was. She regularly sent photos and updates, letting me know how Max was doing and keeping me informed about his behavior and activities. As a dog mom, those updates meant the world to me and helped me feel connected to him even when I couldn’t be there. It’s clear that Primavera truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to provide personalized care. Knowing that Max was in such attentive and caring hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away. I would not hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you, Primavera, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! 🐾❤️”

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.

Lucas and Katherine were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Bentley. This was the second time they cared for him, and once again they exceeded our expectations. They kept us updated throughout our trip with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bentley experienced a minor tummy issue during his stay, and they were incredibly attentive, caring, and proactive in making sure he was comfortable and well cared for. They also showed great flexibility and understanding when our travel schedule shifted, which we truly appreciated. It’s clear that they genuinely love and care for the pets they watch. We felt completely confident that Bentley was in great hands. We highly recommend Lucas and Katherine to anyone looking for trustworthy, communicative, and compassionate pet sitters. We will absolutely be booking with them again in the future!

Lauren was such a pleasure to have as a dog sitter. We could enjoy our 5 nights away knowing that our puppy was in a responsible and loving care. Lauren was a great communicator who provided us with videos, pictures and updates. She was flexible with drop off and pickup times which we appreciated. I highly recommend Lauren.

Happy and relieved to have found our new go-to dog-sitter!! Ashley was so kind and loving toward our girl, Piper. She brought her into her home as if she was one of her own. She is very conscientious and has lots of little things in place to ensure your dog is comfortable and safe. I really appreciated all of the pictures and videos she sent so we could see that our girl was happy and loving life at Ashley’s house. We will definitely be using her for boarding going forward!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Garwood on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 14,038 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Garwood. About 88% of Garwood 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.

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.
