Carla was a great dog sitter!!! Nugget stayed with her over the weekend. It was really short notice but she was very accommodating. I can tell my boy had fun because when it was time to go, he wanted to go back inside the house!!! Will definitely be using her services in the future 😊

This was my first time using rover and I could not have been happier. Fiona was so sweet and treated my Lucy like her own! I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands while we were out of town. I’ll definitely be using her again!!

Grateful to Morgan for taking Kody on such short notice when we unexpectedly needed to leave town. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, which gave us peace of mind. Kody clearly loved his stay, was well cared for, and even made some new friends. We truly appreciate the great care and would absolutely book with Morgan again.

We left our two dogs (pit/boxer mix and mini schnauzer) with Debra and Vic from Friday-Monday and they clearly had a great time. Debra sent pictures and texts every day which was much appreciated and even sent pictures of where they reinforced the fence so my 12.5 mini couldn't squeeze under! They came home exhausted and happy - Hersh is an excellent doggy host and we will def be booking there again!!

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!

Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!

Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.

Jennifer was great for Sophie’s first time staying over someone else’s home w/o us. She sent lots of pics & a video & kept us up on how things were going so we didn’t have to worry. She is definitely a dog lover & had a great fenced in yard for Sophie to run around.

10/10 every time. Carol and her family take the absolute best care of Max we could ever ask for. Their home has become our dog's vacation home while we are away! Thank you so much for all you do and for making us feel comfortable and worry-free while he's with you.

Siobhan was great, kept us informed and was welcoming and loving towards Desmond. We'll definitely be using her again. She really focuses on the dogs, including several of her own. The other dogs might be a problem for a dog who doesn't like other dogs, but for Desmond it was a great opportunity to engage in poochie socializing that he doesn't get to do when he's home with us.

I can't say enough good things about Fiona! Wallace had a fantastic time, and Fiona was an A+++ communicator with me, Wallace's slightly neurotic human. I received great updates, knew he was in excellent hands, and felt completely at ease while I was away. The next time I can't bring Wallace with me, he'll be staying with Fiona. I truly can't recommend her highly enough.

Angelina is awesome - the whole family is! I don’t even think Russty had a bit of anxiety while he was there….honestly, every photo he looked as comfy as he does at home. Oh, photos! At minimum, I got a photo a day (videos, too!!). It made me so happy. She eased all my dog-mom worries and I was able to fully relax. I can’t wait for Russty to stay with them again!!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Highland Lakes

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Highland Lakes on Rover is $49.95 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 1,575 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Highland Lakes. 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.

97% of Highland Lakes 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 Highland Lakes 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 Highland Lakes 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 Highland Lakes.

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 Highland Lakes 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.
