“Rosemeri is amazing! She went above and beyond with our chihuahua Molly. She is definitely an animal lover, our dog warmed up to her immediately. Always quick to respond and sent us lots of pictures, videos and updates. Our dog is a bit needy but I saw from all of the updates that she received so many cuddles and attention. It was such a good feeling to know our dog was so well taken care of while we were away.”
“I’m anxious without my dog and Michael made sure both my dog and I felt reassured my dog was living his best life. Michael updated me with photos everyday and I really appreciated that. Also, he was super cooperative with schedules and dog routines. Lastly, I was very impressed by the feedback/report on overall performance of my dog over the two week stay that he gave when I went to pick up my puppy. I knew a 9 month old portipoo could be a ball of problem but Michael handled it like a pro.👍👍👍 I would definitely come back”
“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.”
About: I am an animal-loving, high school science teacher, located in Harrison, NJ (previously in Secaucus, Jersey City and Union City). I welcomed my own puppy home in May 2021 and have plenty of experience taking care of my sisters’ three dogs. I live in a spacious townhouse at a pet-friendly complex that has its own dog park. I’m very good with strict schedules & routines and love taking pictures & videos of my furry friends, so their humans won’t have to worry! I am at work from 7:30am to 4pm every Monday to Friday. I can do check-ins outside of these times. I can board and do doggy daycare only on weekends (starting Friday evening) and my days off, as I do not feel comfortable leaving any animal alone while I’m at work. I am a school teacher, so during the summer, I’ll be home for a majority of the day throughout the week! If I have to leave a pet alone, I will use a pet gate, playpen, or crate as needed so no pet gets into any dangerous situation. For check-ins, I will keep your space as clean as possible, so your pet doesn’t get in any icky situations! I will respect your home and always communicate what I’m doing.
“I was anxious to leave my black cat with someone even just for the weekend but he’s such a social cat I didn’t have the heart to leave him alone. Rochelle was so sweet and indulged me when I asked how he was doing. She sent me pics and updates a few times a day. It made me rest easier during my work conference. Highly recommend.”
“Janise was amazing! She took such great care of our dog, Chiara. She was very attentive, kind, and made sure Chiara felt comfortable the entire time. We really appreciated that she sent photos and videos every single day — it gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked her up, Chiara looked happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We would definitely book with Janise again and highly recommend her!”
“Diamond took excellent care of Taz. She communicated the entire time, sent me pictures. Taz looked like he enjoyed hisself and he didn’t show any signs of severe anxiety when I picked him up. Thank you so much Diamond!!”
“Devin was very professional and easy to deal with. My dog was in safe hands and had no issues which is a big thing because he suffers from anxiety. I appreciate his flexibility when I was running late. Definitely will book with him in the near future.”
“Kaitlyn and Josh have been absolutely fantastic! ✨ As a bonded pair (as Kaitlyn has in their profile :)), they bring double the care and love to your furry companions. We contacted them on short notice, and they were incredibly accommodating and attentive throughout the entire process. Their kindness and communication made all the difference. Loha was so comfy and happy with them! We couldn't be happier with our experience and are thrilled to have found such reliable sitters. We highly recommend Kaitlyn and Josh for anyone seeking a loving home for their furry friends. We will definitely be reaching out to them again in the future! 🐾❤️”
“This was our first time using rover in many many years and I could not have asked for a better experience. I joked that my dog was having a better vacation than we were! We were kept very informed, they were super communicative, and sent lots of photos which was so nice. They took such great care of him, and spoiled him with lots of extras in his food like beef, sweet potato, rice and fish! We will absolutely be leaving our pup with him again whenever we need to go out of town. And as an extra bonus he smelled great when we picked him up!”
“Jestine was absolutely amazing! She was sooo sweet and took great care of my dog, sent me frequent updates and pictures (she even made a collage)! When I got Milton back, he didn’t even want to leave! I will absolutely be using Jestine again for boarding! Your dog will be in amazing hands!”
“Shirley looked after my 60 pounds Shepard mix and was great, kept in contact with me the whole time, was flexible as my plane arrived late. Would book again.”
“Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.”
“After 3 weeks with Jacqueline, we picked up Mabel better than we left her! She was very happy and healthy. Jacqueline takes the best care of dogs, and makes sure to keep parents updated the whole time. So lucky we have Jacqueline!”
“Lindsey did an amazing job taking care of our girls while we were away! She kept us updated as needed & we got a lot of cute pictures. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our girls were in such a loving home. We would love to book her again!”
“My first time leaving my dog with someone and he fell in love with Tammy and her family from the beginning(dogs know good people)! Updates and pictures of the dog made it all much easier. Coming home and seeing how calm and happy he was, was enough to know he had a great time! Definitely will be our “go to” person!”
“Bridget is an excellent dog sitter. Our pyredoodle is a bundle of separation anxiety, for us and him. Bridget sent frequent updates and pictures showing how well he was doing and allaying our concerns. Highly recommended.”

Jamin is always a fantastic sitter. He follows instructions, communicates well, and is flexible with our schedule. For this trip, our flight had a few delays and was expected to land late. Jamin was kind enough to drive and drop off Diamond back at our home, which was hugely helpful. As always, couldn’t recommend Jamin enough.
Maisha is an AMAZING pet sitter! My fur baby absolutely loves her and gets so excited every time she sees her and her two fur babies! It’s such a relief knowing she’s in caring, trustworthy, and loving hands. Maisha goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend as she is truly one of the best! ❤️🐾
Kayla is absolutely fantastic. She has the sweetest daughter who hung out with our pup a ton, I could tell our dog had an amazing time with Kayla and her fam. Kayla was also wonderful with sending photo updates, our dog was being cuddled in most of the photos! Would 1000% rebook with her and we probably will very soon!! Kayla is amazing.
I am extremely satisfied with the service I received during the period my dog was being sat by Yan. Yan was very organized, thorough, friendly and communicative throughout the dog sitting. My dog Luna was definitely in great hands! Thank you Yan! Luna really enjoyed her stay and she will definitely be seeing you soon!
Kenny took great care of our two standard golden doodles during their 10-day stay. He was responsive throughout the booking and periodically sent us updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both of our dogs seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we picked them up. We truly appreciated knowing they were in capable hands and would gladly recommend Kenny to anyone looking for a dependable and attentive sitter.
Yunyi is an excellent dog sitter. She followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to keep me updated with pictures and videos. Also, her pets (Donut and Bagel) are so lovely and I am sure they were a great company for my baby. Thank you for everything. Definitely will book again!
It was a pleasure meeting Enrique and having my boy Lucky with him for a last minute overnight stay. Enrique was very communicative from the meet and greet to when he was actually with my pup. Lucky came home happy and smiling. Would not hesitate to book with Enrique again!
Hsin and Phil were very responsive and caring during Brooklyn’s stay. They kept sharing pictures and regular updates with us, which gave us great peace of mind while we were in Turkey. We could tell that Brooklyn really enjoyed his time with them and felt comfortable in their home. We’d definitely book with them again in the future. Highly recommend!
From booking his stay to picking up my dog after my trip, Christabel was communicative and trustworthy. In the initial visit to her apartment, it was evident it was very clean, safe, and stylish. She proactively asked for documentation needed in case of emergency which is thoughtful. Throughout my dogs stay I received numerous photos and videos of him being walked or lounging, and he didn’t seem anxious like he usually is in new situations. He stopped eating like I mentioned to her, and she went out to get a different wet food for him which he loved! She also got him a small ball at the same time to try a new toy. I have used more expensive pet boarding services in the past, and decided to try rover to save money. Im glad to say the service provided by Christabel was so personable and comforting I was able to relax on my trip knowing my dog was in good hands.
Sonya was amazing with our doggie Kylo. This is Kylo’s first time away from home and familiar faces so he was anxious. Sonya made sure to treat him like her own and kept me up to date on his stay. Would highly recommend her to anyone needing sitting services and her doggie also made Kylo feel welcomed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Harrison on Rover is $54.55 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 14,455 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Harrison. About 88% of Harrison 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
