“Carolina was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She is so caring and attentive, and it really shows how much she loves what she does. She was responsive from the very beginning, keeping me updated. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was with someone so reliable and thoughtful. I could tell Brady was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Carolina to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and truly caring sitter!”
“Thank you so much! Really appreciate your help with Garçon! We know he can be a bit of a handful sometimes with a lot of energy, but really appreciate you taking him last minute and providing such great care ! You guys are the best!”
“We had such a great experience Ankita! She truly made my dog feel right at home from the moment he arrived. It was clear he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. I especially loved that he was never alone. She and her family were always around, giving him plenty of attention and making him feel like part of the household. He also had a blast spending time with their dog, Panther. They got along great, and it made the whole experience even more fun like a vacation for my dog. I could tell from the updates and how he was when I picked him up that he had an amazing time. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter!”
“Ksenia gave our loved and spoiled precious Benny amazing care, attention, and customized approach. We received great communication for all four days consistently and he was well taken care of. Recommend without hesitation.”
“Kira had such a great time at Maureen’s for her 2 night stay! Maureen gave Kira lots of attention which we appreciated since Kira can be a bit anxious. Maureen also watches Kira on a regular basis for doggy day care and is always great with her! We would not hesitate to have Kira over for a future stay!”
“Christina and Nick provided a calm, loving environment for Ziggy. Christina sent daily updates and pictures, and there was no doubt in my mind that Ziggy was being well taken care of. That peace of mind was so appreciated during our time away.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Kun, his wife and their pup Som were incredible hosts to Thor! They were amazing communicators, consistently kept you updated, and were extremely mindful to ask about any health concerns, allergies or tendencies. Thor was very sad to leave them but he will definitely see them again! They also provided us with the cutest Polaroid photo of him and Som! Thank you both so much for allowing Thor to stay with you!!”
“The absolute Best. Best Option, Best Choice, Best People. This is the first time we’ve left our dog with someone outside family, and we couldn’t have found a better option. Rhea and Michael really care.. they have a sincere hospitable and loving way about them that makes them the best choice. They care not only for the pup, but also for the families. A constant flow of photos and texts makes us feel so at ease, while being away. Truly the best !!!”
“Yesenia and her family took great care of my old man Chase. I was really nervous leaving him because he previously injured himself. However Yesenia followed his food and medication schedule to a T and helped speed up his recovery. They always kept in touch with me while I was away by sending pictures and videos. They also answered promptly whenever I was checking in. I will be using Yesenia and her family for my next trip! Thank you so much for a positive experience.”
“Lola enjoyed another stay with Aeli while we had to be out of town. The drop off and pick up is always smooth. Aeli provides us with daily photos of Lola enjoying her walks, play and relax time at her house. We have been so very happy with the experience and know that Lola has an amazing place to stay when we need to be out of town. We will definitely book again when we need. Thank you Aeli!!!!”
“We were so happy to have found Jess. We were apprehensive in leaving our fur baby but she set was able to ease our minds. She followed our care instructions to a tee and sent us updates and pictures throughout the visit. This really helped us to see and know she was taking just as good of care as we would. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.”
“Raymond was wonderful to work with! He was extremely responsive, flexible and sent daily pictures. Would 100% recommend and would love to use him again in the future!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“Laura and Kevin did an awesome job watching Carmine. I was a little nervous leaving him with a new family for the first time but I recieved multiple picture and video updates daily and quickly knew he was in a good hands. Definitely would recommend them to anyone else in need, and hope Carmine will have a chance to stay with them again in the future. Thanks again so much!”
“I have great experience with Pam for the first time, she is amazing! She was fantastic about communications and always takes the time to send you an update and photos on how your cat is doing. She made me feel less anxious about leaving my cat with someone new while i was away. I would definitely use her again.”
“Karla was wonderful. Great communication, super fast replies, oodles of pictures sent, and just a really great vibe. Ramona clearly had a wonderful time during her stay and she came home clean and happy. We will not hesitate to book again with Karla!”

We had such a great experience with Juan. This was our first time leaving Teddy with them and Juan made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Teddy and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated while we were away. It was so reassuring to see that Teddy was doing well and being well cared for. We’re very thankful to Juan and would absolutely feel comfortable leaving Teddy with them again.
Laura and Kevin were a great fit for my dog. They spent lots of time outdoors which is her favorite place to be. She's an older dog and not use to staying with people she doesn't know. On top of that, she was having intestinal issues and they still happily took her. They kept us updated with lots of check ins and pictures. We will definitely choose them again!
We couldn't have asked for a better boarding experience for Cody with Ankita. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was being welcomed into a warm and caring home. Cody had an incredible time playing with their dog and absolutely loved spending time with their 5-year-old son. What truly set this experience apart was the way Ankita and her entire family embraced Cody as one of their own. He wasn't just being watched—he was genuinely cared for, included, and loved as a member of the family. Throughout his stay, Ankita kept us updated with thoughtful messages, photos, and wonderful videos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Seeing how happy, comfortable, and engaged Cody was made it clear that he was receiving exceptional care and attention. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a fantastic time. We are incredibly grateful to Ankita and her family for the love and care they showed Cody. We would wholeheartedly recommend Ankita to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and truly exceptional pet sitter!!
Yeisa is the best and so sweet! Unfortunately while I was away on my birthday trip in Dominican Republic, my other sitter had mentioned she couldn’t take care of Moki. Yeisa being my life saver went and picked up Moki in less than a two hour notice and has treated my dog with the upmost respect. God bless you Yeisa! No issues whatsoever, and she will cater to your dog and its needs!
Kathy is one of the best dog sitters we've had. So lucky to have her nearby. She is very reliable and communicates well with frequent updates and photos of our corgi Nike. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a trusted sitter who will love your pup just as much as you do.
Raymond took very good care of our elderly dog and sent us pictures every day. We were happy with Raymond's communication with us. Unfortunately, the old dog got sick and had to be picked up but none of this was Raymond's fault, just an old dog who doesn't like change in his routine.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hawthorne on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,679 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hawthorne. 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 Hawthorne 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 Hawthorne 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 Hawthorne 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 Hawthorne.
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 Hawthorne 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.
