“I can’t recommend Chulmin & Hoyjin enough! They took such amazing care of Cocoa while I was away. Cocoa were happy and clearly well-loved when I returned. Chulmin & Hoyjin kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear they genuinely care about animals and go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. I will definitely be booking again in the future!. Please do not hesitate to contact them everytime you have to go away and you have to left your little lovely ones. Thank you again Chulmin & Hoyjin.”

“Vanessa is a really wonderful pet sitter. She was very thorough making sure that she understood my dog’s schedule, sleeping habits, how he tolerated the heat, etc. My dog loves attention and people and she was great about giving him tons of affection. My Maltipoo was well cared for and happy. I received regular photos and update - I highly recommend her!”

“Kate and Juan are fantastic petsitters. They treat my dog, Hodoo better than me, and they walk my dog more than me. I felt really at ease as I received photos every day, every time. I was even worried that my dog wouldn't want to come back home. Thank you very much, Kate & Juan. Now, because of Kate and Juan, I think I can go on a business trip or a vacation with confidence.”

About: I’ve been a proud dog dad to my lovely Lola for the past four years! Caring for her has taught me the importance of patience, love, and providing a safe, comfortable environment for dogs. Lola is incredibly friendly, calm, and loves meeting new people and furry friends. I genuinely love dogs and would treat every pup in my care like family, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care. My goal is to provide a loving home away from home where your dog feels happy, safe, and welcome. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands! 🐾❤️ I’m home most of the day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine! I already spend plenty of time with my dog, Lola, taking her outside around 6–8 times a day for backyard playtime, fresh air, and walks. Since I’m home so often, I can provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pup loves playing outdoors, going on walks, or simply relaxing indoors, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Your dog’s safety and happiness will always be my top priorities! I have a private, enclosed backyard where dogs can enjoy fresh air, exercise, and supervised playtime in a secure environment. I regularly check and maintain my backyard to keep it clean, safe, and free of anything that could potentially harm a dog. I’m also mindful of wildlife and take precautions to keep unwanted animals away from the play area. Inside my home, I provide a calm, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs can relax and feel like part of the family. My dog, Lola, is very gentle and friendly, and I always make sure introductions with new furry friends are gradual and supervised. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and care that I give Lola. I’ll also respect each pet’s individual needs, feeding schedules, and routines while keeping their owners updated with photos and messages. 🐶❤️

“Kinjal was amazing with Timmy. This is our first time leaving him with someone other than family so we were a bit worried. After the inital meetup, talking with Kinjal, and seeing where he would be staying, my worries started to fade. During the boarding, Kinjal communicated daily with photo and video updates and frequently asked questions about Timmy in order to provide the best care of him. We will definitely go with Kinjal again. Highly recommended!”

“We are so happy we found Kathy and Ben on Rover. They took such good care of Teddy, and he was very comfortable with them. He can be a little anxious because he is home with us most of the time, but took to them right away. They took him for many walks which he loved. They are such nice people and were so calm and sweet with Teddy! We would definitely love to have them take care of Teddy again. Thanks so much Kathy and Ben!”

When we picked him up, he seemed to be so sad to be parted with her and refused to leave. He was healthy and happy when he came back home. I will definitely find her again when we have another occasion that we have to leave him behind.”

About: We are a family that absolutely loves animals! We have a sweet, friendly 6 year old Goldendoodle named Emmett who loves to play, make friends, and be around people. We also have a kitten named River who brings so much fun and personality to our home. Our pets are a big part of our family, so we understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your pets as their own. We love spending time outdoors, going on long walks and hikes, playing, and, of course, giving plenty of cuddles! We also have a large, fully fenced in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. We provide a loving, safe, and comfortable environment with lots of attention and affection. We are happy to follow your pet's routine and send regular pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My boyfriend works from home, so there is usually someone home throughout the day to give pets attention, care, and companionship. I work three days a week and am home the other four days, which gives us plenty of flexibility to provide consistent care. We enjoy starting our days with walks, spending time out in the yard, and making sure our pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles. Having pets of our own, we understand the importance of maintaining their routines and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. We provide a loving, safe, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like part of our family. In our home, pets have plenty of room to relax and play, including access to our large, fenced in backyard for supervised outdoor fun. We are also happy to send pictures and updates throughout the day!

I am so thrilled with the care that Ankita and her family gave to our dog! She really cares about her clients and gives them personalized care. She sent us photos updates a few times a day, even video updates showing our dog having a great time. Before our boarding session, we had a meet-and-greet so she could get to know us and our dog, and discuss how things would go; this was fantastic and made me feel very confident leaving my dog in her care. I will book again with Ankita without hesitation and I recommend her very highly! 5 stars!

We had a great experience with Evelyn! My girlfriend and I met Evelyn and her husband for a meet and greet a few days before the booking, and we were immediately impressed by their beautiful, dog-friendly home and backyard. We also got to meet their sweet dog, Mango, who is a friendly boy and they played all day. The booking itself went smoothly, and Evelyn was fantastic about providing constant updates and photos throughout Gigi’s stay. It was clear that Gigi was being well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Evelyn to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter. We would happily book with her 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!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Hawthorne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Hawthorne is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $68 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 14,173 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hawthorne. About 88% of Hawthorne 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
