“We recently used Manuel’s dog sitting services for our Frenchie, Vinny, and we couldn’t be happier. Knowing Vinny was in Manuel’s capable care gave us such peace of mind to focus on our day. When we returned, Vinny was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so thankful for Manuel’s help and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Yuberkis took such great care of my sweet Boy!! She provided pictures and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel. Andrew gave me tons of peace of mind. Definitely recommend!”
“Tammy was great with our Pup Macy!! She accepted her on short notice (thank you) & kept me updated on how Macy was doing throughout the day! Will definitely be using Tammy again ☺️”
“Tracy came through in a pinch for us and watched our two dogs Maisie and Louie last minute on Christmas Day. From the moment we got to their place, we were put at ease - they’re clearly dog professionals and made us feel totally comfortable leaving our pups. Even our nervous dog Louie immediately took to them. They sent lots of updates and pictures and made our holiday stress free. Highly recommend!”
“Doug was great with Molly! She had such a fun time and was totally tired out from her day. He was very friendly and provided updates throughout. He was very flexible with timing as well. We would definitely use him again in the future.”

“Thank you! Redd is good and tired. Kate and Kale were easy to work with and took Redd to the dog park to burn off energy. Redd came home very relaxed and loving as usual. We appreciate the extra effort taking him to the dog park because Redd can be very energetic and loves to run.”
“Te is amazing!! Our dog runs inside as soon as we drop him off and we have to carry him into the car in order for him to leave. Te is very communicative throughout the day and sends multiple updates. I know our dog is in great hands and would highly recommend. I swear it’s our dog’s favorite place on earth.”
“Raya was a great! She put me at easy by sending me pictures of my 2 babies and always answering my messages to assure me they were perfectly fine and happy. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies. I will definitely use her services again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Glen Ridge
We had such a great experience! Tracy was so kind and welcoming to my pup Jake! He came home happy and tired after lots of playtime. I really appreciated how flexible they were with a later pickup, which made things so much easier for me. I would absolutely book again! Thank you!!!!
Amanda was very nice and sweet. Kashy was so happy when we first arrived and he was excited to spend his day with her. Got some photos and a video of him enjoying her place and he seemed very comfortable there. Thank you for taking great care of our fur baby! We hope to have you watch him again in the future!
Doug is excellent with my anxious senior dog. He is very communicative and makes sure my dog is well cared for. My dog has separation anxiety and it’s been great having a place for my dog to go and socialize/spend time outdoors in the back yard. My dog even spent the night once and did great. I highly recommend Doug!
Megan is the best! My dog is definitely not the simplest dog to take care of, but she made sure my dog felt super comfortable and happy. She sent me plenty of photos to keep me updated and made sure to ask all the right questions to make sure my dog was well taken care of. Genuinely the best dog sitting experience I’ve had!
Andrew was very accommodating and flexible with accepting Gabbie with short notice and timing. He was very transparent and helpful in conversations. He gave a tour of where Gabbie will be staying, which made us feel very comfortable. And he shared photos and messaged us throughout the day. Definitely recommend and would reach out again!
Cinthia was amazing with Koda. She was very communicative and provided regular updates throughout the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog and knowing he was in good hands. Would totally recommend leveraging cinthia if you have the opportunity.
Nala gets so excited every time I drop her off, which says everything about how amazing Darrin, Debra, and Emily are. They take wonderful care of her on an ongoing basis, always treating her like part of their family. I’m so grateful for the love and consistency they give her. Highly recommend! 🐾💛
Darien is incredible! Right off the bat when we first met her we got an excellent first impression. She will care for your pet like her own. Kind, compassionate and loving toward our dog. Darien is very flexible and reliable, which made our Thanksgiving gathering less stressful for the day. Thank you Darien for making life a bit easier during the Holidays!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Glen Ridge on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Glen Ridge commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,432 sitters in Glen Ridge, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
