“I can’t say enough good things about Nicole & Alexis! This was my first time leaving Kingston, my Cavapoo, with a new sitter, while I traveled internationally for 10 days; Nicole made everything so easy and stress-free. She was extremely communicative, sent me daily pictures, and always let me know if he had eaten his breakfast & dinner. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and didn’t have to worry once while I was away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with Nicole & Alexis, again! 🙂”
“Hilary and her husband were awesome and my dog couldn’t have had a better time. I got plenty of updates and he was so happy when I picked him up, would have them watch him again anytime”
“Kelsey and Conor took great care of Rosie! Kelsey was so nice to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Her dogs were so friendly and greeted Rosie so kindly right away! I would definitely book with Kelsey and Conor again. They made me feel like my dog was one of their own!”
“Sofie had such a great time! Sarah kept me posted on how Sofie did over the week with pictures and stories. I could tell from the photos that she was settling right in - I was almost worried Sofie wouldn't want to leave! Will definitely be back!”
“Aubrey provided great care and is dog lover for sure. We highly recommend and will be using her again for sure. Thank you Aubrey for taking care of our little friends!”
“Phyllis was fantastic!!! She kept in touch with us frequently for an update on how Domino was doing, which put our minds at ease. We really appreciated the report card when we returned. It was very obvious that Domino enjoyed her! We will definitely request her again."”
“Hands down the most amazing sitter! The pictures and videos sent showed how loved my baby was. So much so when I came to pick her up. She greeted me and went right back into their home. Will 100% book with her again and highly recommend”
“Cindy was very flexible with scheduling and allowing Duke to have a meet and greet prior to our scheduled boarding. Cindy also shared photos and videos during the stay.”
“Chazz was so great! He instantly put my mind at ease about leaving my dog Zelda overnight for the first time and when I picked her up, she was calm and happy. I’d book again for sure.”
About: I’ve loved animals from a very young age and have experience with all kinds of pets. I have about 15 years experience working in a very busy specialty veterinary hospital as a vet nurse for their emergency service. So you can trust your pets are getting the best care and I can spot a potential health issue/emergency if something were to arise. Along with my medical background I have a great deal of experience and interest in animal behavior and training. Having worked with my own dogs and worked directly with trainers for my own knowledge. The hospital I worked for was fear free certified, I absolutely carry those gentle and patient techniques over when working with your pets. Taking the time to gain trust is super important! I recently moved back to this area, I went to school in haddon heights. Since moving back my schedule is pretty open so I can focus on taking care of your pets! I have my own car and can come to your house so your pet(s) don’t have to stress in an unfamiliar environment. Alternatively I do offer day boarding in my home which has a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to run. Whatever the circumstances, I am available by phone/text always and will happily send updates and pics as often as you’d like so you can enjoy your time away from your pets.
“Jeslyn was so sweet! She arrived at the car with treats to pick up my pup, and kept her comfortable and was well taken care of. Great communicator, I received plenty of pictures throughout her stay. Will definitely book again!”
“Roxann and her family were so kind and loving to our dogs. They had a blast at their house! We were updated with lots of photos and videos daily. They played with lots of toys, went for walks, and had snuggle time. It was a huge relief to not have to worry about our fur babies while we were away. Thank you so much!!”
“Kristina was awesome! She sent daily updates and pictures which I really appreciated, took Mika on daily walks, and really made me feel like she gave her special attention and care! We look forward to using Kristina in the future!”
“Bryce was fantastic! Teddy loved being there and will still try to go into the house any time we walk past, which I take as a great sign! Will 100% be booking again when needed.”
“Carismeldi was awesome! This was my first time leaving my Mason with someone new and she made me feel very comfortable. I loved getting the pictures and updates reassuring me that my baby was in good hands. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Mygan was amazing! She took such great care of my Charlie! She was so kind and thoughtful. She sent pics daily like I asked and she even did well with his medication. Thank you so much I will definitely rebook!”
“John and Michelle did a great job watching our little pups. They were responsive and friendly, and they walked our dogs frequently. Would definitely use again!”
About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life! My grandmother was an animal cruelty investigator and my family works in rescue. I care for each pet as if they were my own. I truly love what I do and want to give families the care I would hope to receive when I need someone to look after my pets This is my full time job! I care for pets around the clock. Walks, drop ins, overnights. Whatever you need I can provide with love and care I love when families leave detailed lists of the pets schedule and routine so I can keep their days going as they usually would to help alleviate some stress from their families being gone.

We were a little concerned about leaving our big, 12-year old, sweet boy, who had never been boarded overnight with a sitter. We needn't have worried!! Stephen and his family made Rowan feel so at home! Stephen sent multiple pictures every day of Rowan doing what he does best: just lying around the house, stretched out on the floor, or snuggled up on the couch - totally chill. The fenced yard was a real plus for Rowan! We couldn't have picked a better place and a better sitter for him. ❤️ We won't be nervous about taking trips without Rowan anymore! Thank you, Stephen!!
Paige was absolutely wonderful with our Sadie. She updated us with good news and great photos of our baby. Sadie was treated as if she were home with love, attention and care. Paige was available on extremely short notice and willing to take only Sadie as she is not very dog friendly. I already told Paige we will be needing her for our next trip which she gladly replied “ no problem “ You can trust her completely with your precious pets and never worry. She is also medical veterinary student which should say it all. We just met her but love what she did for us. Thank you again for a carefree vacation!
Our pups had a wonderful experience with Rob! He was incredibly attentive to our dogs’ needs and kept us updated every day with photos and messages. He was also extremely flexible and was able to watch them for an extra night at the last minute, which we really appreciated. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and happy. We would absolutely book with Rob again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter!
Lily was fantastic, this was my first time having a sitter watch my dog (and for over a week!) but I never worried. She took note of everything we went over in the meet and greet and sent daily pictures and updates while I was away. I think Benji thought she was on vacation too.
Sarah took great care of my dogs. I particularly appreciated her being able to accommodate their very different needs. The pictures and updates I got on how they were doing each day eased my stress at leaving them with someone new. Even my shy boy felt comfortable staying with Sarah and her family which really meant a lot to me. They both had a great time and I would feel comfortable having them stay with Sarah anytime.
I had such a great experience leaving my dog, Alfie, with John & Michelle for multiple weekends this summer! Alfie has some separation anxiety and behavioral quirks, so finding the right sitter can sometimes be challenging, but John & Michelle were incredibly understanding, accommodating, and welcoming. They provided excellent communication throughout the entire process and were quick to respond, even accepting my last-minute boarding requests. It’s clear that they’re experienced, attentive to specific needs, and genuinely care about the dogs they look after. They provided Alfie with a safe and comfortable environment and kept me updated with photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, Alfie was clearly well cared for, felt safe and relaxed, and had a great time! I would absolutely recommend John & Michelle to other pet owners and hope to book with them again in the future. Thank you both for taking such great care of Alfie!

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 Gloucester City 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 Gloucester City 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 Gloucester City.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Gloucester City 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.
