“We needed a dog boarded for the Thanksgiving week. Debi was shown as available, we messaged her and replied so quickly. We cannot say enough about her. Lily stayed with Debi and her family during our vacation week. It was difficult for us, but Debi made it a wonderful experience. We got frequent pics, videos and texts which we could see how wonderful she took care of Lily. We appreciate all you did for Lily. It was a fantastic experience. We highly recommend Debi and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
About: I am a father of 2 & 4-legged kids and the go-to dogsitter for friends and family. I am reliable and my schedule is flexible. I am the primary caregiver of my son when he's not in school. The rest of my schedule is flexible around my honey do lists. Having been a dog owner for more than 10 years, I am skilled in head scritches and belly rubs, and am not scared of slobbery kisses or getting dog hair on my clothes.
“Dhara and her family were friendly and caring hosts for our little man Mr. Darcy. That includes their pooch “Coco” who was playful and not territorial with a visiting doggie scampering around the house. Dhara sent plenty of updates and photos during Mr. Darcy’s visit as of an upcoming longer stay. The stay could not have gone better, and we’re very confident and comfortable leaving Mr. Darcy in the caring hands Dhara and her family going forward. Its clear that they’re “dog people” who care.”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Harleny! She took amazing care of my dog, Saga, and treated her like one of her own. Saga received so many cuddles and had an absolutely great time while in her care. Harleny kept us updated throughout, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was incredibly accommodating when we needed to make some last minute changes. We’re so grateful for her kindness and flexibility she showed Saga. Highly recommend her!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Yvette while she cared for our mini Bernedoodle, Dylan, over the weekend of our daughter’s wedding. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease leaving Dylan in her care. She’s incredibly reliable, communicates clearly and promptly, and most importantly, treated our puppy with so much affection and love. She sent us updates with the cutest pictures too! It was clear that Dylan felt safe and special in her warm, welcoming home. Knowing he was so well cared for gave us real peace of mind during a very important family weekend. We’re so grateful to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Dylan with her again in the future!”
“Absolutely the best, Pam made us feel comfortable from the moment we reached out. So grateful for her services and constant communication/videos. Will def be going back again!”
“Neveen was ABSOLUTELY perfect! Rocket had a great time and was well taken care of... she sent photos and updated me and he didn’t want to leave. I would use her again, Again and again.. she’s a keeper?”
“Here’s a polished version of your Rover feedback: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lineth was amazing with my pet! She’s very caring and made sure my pet felt comfortable and happy throughout the stay. I really appreciate how accommodating she was with my early drop-off and pickup times. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and caring.”
“Leo had a great time with the wonderful family. He loved the company of the kids so much I think he was slightly resisting to come with me when I went to pick him up. Got very regular updates along with pics and we would keenly look forward to them. Thank you again for being wonderful hosts for Leo and taking care of him so nicely.”
“Thana & Subangi were wonderful! They treated my pets like one of their own. All pictures and videos sent throughout the 9 days showed happy, well taken care of doggies. Plenty of outdoor fun and extra care taken during meals. Dogs were given alot of attention. I am so pleased and will definitely leave my dogs in their care again!”
“Letitua was amazing. She and her family took great care of Levi and kept me updated all throughout Levi's stay. I could tell that Levi had a great time playing as well. Would definitely recommend”
“Kavya was so kind and took such good care of Leo. Her entire family welcomed him and allowed him to be a part of theirs for his stay. Oscar is such. Friendly pup and Leo loved him so much. I can’t wait for him to stay with the family again!”
“Our Brooke stayed by Radwa while we were off on a family vacation for 7 days. Brooke was very well taken care of and a very happy girl when we got home. She loves Radwa, her family and her pups. It’s nice to be away and not have to worry about your beloved pup. We highly recommend Radwa.”
“Jalisa was the sweetest since before we met in person! This was only the third time Angel has been away from me in 14 years, and I knew she was in good hands. Her and her family were so kind and welcoming! She sent pics and video and I could tell Ang was having a ball! I’m so glad that I found her and I will be booking more stays for sure.”
“Very trustworthy and communicative! I loved the videos she shared, it appears she never grew tired of playing fetch with our golden. Will go straight to her profile on Rover for future dogsitting needs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Helmetta
Our boys loved their time at Lenny's! Lenny was very welcoming to both our senior dog and our young puppy, and made us feel at ease leaving them for the first time. Lenny sent us pictures when out on walks and they genuinely seemed to be having a great time. They seemed to feel right at home! We would definitely consider boarding with Lenny in the future.
This was our first time leaving Leo. We were very anxious of how Leo would cope with the separation. Dhara and family took extremely good care of him and provided us with constant updates. They gave him timely meals and walked him. They treated Leo as they would treat their own. I would without any hesitation leave Leo with the family and not have second thoughts about it.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Helmetta on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,770 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Helmetta. 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.
94% of Helmetta 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 Helmetta 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 Helmetta 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 Helmetta.
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 Helmetta 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.
