“Treated my boy like her own and even tried to help solve a life long problem with the help of his new fur friends. Amazing communication, with frequent updates and super flexible. Thank you and will book again in a heart beat.”
“Teresa was fantastic. Gave us updates with photos, has a great environment for the dogs, and most importantly, our dog came back without any behavioral changes. Just the same happy dog we dropped off.”
“Yuberkis was great. She responded very quickly and sent periodic updates with photos of our dog Brody. If you need someone to board your dog with, I definitely recommend her.”
“John was very tentative to our dog . We loved his positive energy . We can tell he's a true animal lover . He was so easy going and flexible when we had to change our drop off off time last minute . Love how him and his son made our dog feel loved :) Photos were adorable of her he sent ! Thanks so much :)”
“Laura and Daniel went above and beyond in making sure my kitten had a great stay. I’m a new cat mom and was nervous to leave him behind but I felt at ease and they made sure to send updates throughout his stay. Very accommodating of schedule too. I would highly recommend them!”
“Jia took amazing care of Milo. I'm so glad she was able to take care of him and have availability with such short notice. I got daily updates + videos and photos which we really appreciated. Would definitely have Milo stay with her again!”
“Jennifer is so great with Brioche. She is kind and patient and takes the best pictures, letting me know Brioche loves being in her care. Brioche is a tough dog, due to his special needs but Jennifer is someone id trust him with 10x over. Thank you!”
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”

“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“Here's a shorter version: --- I recently booked Angela for two nights, and I'm thrilled with the care my dog received. Angela provided regular updates with photos and videos, ensuring my peace of mind. My shy dog quickly warmed up to them, and all his dietary and exercise needs were perfectly met. I came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. Highly recommend Angela for reliable and loving pet care.”
“Cheyenne was very patient with Jeremiah. He was hiding most of the time he was with her. Yet she still would find him and send us pictures daily. I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“We left our cavalier king charles with Amanda for the first time and we had a wonderful experience. She and her family did a great job taking care of him, and we received photos of him having fun and going on walks. She lives in a beautiful, calm neighborhood and her house is prepared to host pets. We’ll surely book with her again in the near future.”
“Sissi provided excellent care for Mochi during her stay. We received daily photos and regular communication on her daily activites. Mochi was very comfortable at Sissi's place which had a fenced in yard on a quiet street. We would use Sissi again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“It was my first time leaving my puppy for several days and Tamika was great! She sent me photos and kept me updated daily which was really important to me. I could really sense that she enjoyed taking care of her. I will definitely rebook in the future 😊”

Caitlin is a gem! She has cared for our boxer twice now, and we will definitely book her again and again. Her communication is amazing and we could tell how much fun our dog has with her and Georgia. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the weekend! She treated our dog like her own and got him a pup cup for his birthday. Will definitely book again!!
Doug, Luiz & the Ink & Tails crew Did an amazing job caring for our one year old Bernadoodle and our 13 year old chihuahua. They were attentive, provided frequent updates, and most importantly treated our pets with the love and care they have for their own. We are lucky we found them and will definitely be using their services again in the future. 🐶
What a relief. Our 10yr old Guinny has not had overnight boarding/sitting in years. Now that he is visually impaired and diabetic we were extremely nervous to leave him multiple days. Berenice was so attentive and made us feel comfortable from the very start. She maintained his twice-a-day insulin injection schedule and kept him active. At pick up I could immediately tell he felt safe with her as there was no pulling away, no whining, no fuss. We did not enter fully inside the home but still felt it was welcoming and suitable for dog-siiting. We are happy and will definitely book Berenice again.
I can't recommend Darrin and Debra enough! From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, so I always knew my pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. They went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine stayed consistent, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable and loved. When I returned, my dog was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a wonderful time. It's such a relief to find someone who is not only reliable but also truly passionate about animals. I will absolutely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
Andrew took great care of our senior Pitty Sommy, he immediately struck us as very friendly and felt like extended family throughout the whole process. His home is beautiful with a gated yard for plenty of space and grass for our Sommy. Andrew made sure to update us with photos throughout the stay, and made sure Sommy was well taken cared for. We will definitely book with Andrew again, without hesitation.
Karen and her family were absolutely wonderful with Koa! From the moment we met them, I could tell Koa would be in caring, capable hands. They treated her well and it was clear she felt comfortable, happy, and loved during her stay. Karen kept me updated with photos and messages, just the right amount too, consistent and not too much or too little, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Koa came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciated the love, attention, and patience they showed her. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Karen again and in fact already plan too for the next time i am away, I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of my little girl!
I can’t thank Sissi enough for taking such wonderful care of our Sammy! She made him feel welcome and at home while we were away. Sammy is usually anxious without us and we could tell he felt comfortable and happy. We appreciated the daily updates and photos which made us feel at ease. Thanks so much! Until next time.
Darien took such great care of our Kudi! She sent me so many pictures and videos throughout the week, which made me feel like I was still there with him and gave me so much peace of mind. Her space is gorgeous with a huge lawn for him to play and sunbathe. She also gave him a bath and a haircut for his return home, and he looks absolutely adorable! I highly recommend Darien and will definitely be booking with her again.
Leaving Rosie with Vanessa and her family while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment she arrived, Rosie was beyond excited to be there and was treated like part of the family. Vanessa kept us updated with so many photos and videos of Rosie playing, relaxing, and clearly having the best time. It made being away from our girl so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was so loved and well cared for. We could truly enjoy our wedding and honeymoon without worrying for a second. We’re incredibly grateful for the kindness, communication, and genuine care Vanessa and her family showed Rosie. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
Maryn and Steven took such good care of Bo! They went above and beyond caring for him since he was have some digestive issues that popped up. Maryn has lots of patience and her care reassured me he was in good hands. Lots of photos and updates. Highly recommend Maryn!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Glen Ridge on Rover is $59.56 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 13,990 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Glen Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Glen Ridge 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 Glen Ridge 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 Glen Ridge 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 Glen Ridge.
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 Glen Ridge 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.
