“Would highly recommend Yvette as a dog sitter! I left my 11 year old dog Ziggy with her for a week while I was on vacation and I could tell from the daily pictures and videos that she sent me how much Ziggy felt like he was at home. Normally when I get back from a trip Ziggy is overly excited to see me but he was calm and happy when I picked him up which I think speaks to how much he was cared for and how at ease he felt all week. We will definitely be returning clients, thank you Yvette!!!”

“There aren’t enough stars to rate our dog, Riggins’ stay with Monica and her family! As we travelled throughout Europe for over two weeks, Monica sent daily photos and updates of our pup. It gave us such peace of mind to know Riggins was having the best time...so much so that we started referring to his stay as, “Camp Monica” ?. We’re pretty sure all of his bowls, and even Riggins himself, came back cleaner and more well kept than when we left them! There is no doubt that Monica is the best of the best and we can’t thank her enough!”

She made sure to send pictures and videos throughout the stay and kept me updated on how he was doing. My dog sometimes gets anxious around new faces but she made sure to give him treats, take him outside, and play with him to make sure he felt comfortable with her and her daughter. He looked like he was having a great time. I will definitely book with her in the future!”

“I have a 12 yr cockapoo who requires daily medication. Noria has been our overnight sitter since April 2024. She only takes one dog in addition to her own sweet Milo. Noria is incredibly kind, smart, professional, loves dogs and has a gentle/loving way in interacting with my Kobe. She has been truly a blessing to find! My family and I are assured that when we leave Kobe for an overnight with Noria that he is being cared for as if he is part of her family. Kobe can be an anxious dog and slow to warm up to people. She has a patient and playful disposition. From the first time he met her he was happy, calm and it was evident that he felt secure in her care. The medication and feeding instructions have always been followed and understood. We appreciate the photos she sends and the updates as to how he is doing. Noria is a genuine individual who has been a complete joy for our family to work with. We are so happy that she has been caring for Kobe. When we go away we know he looks forward to his time with Noria and Milo!”

We were away for 10 days and Kate kept us posted with daily photos of Kofi. Our flight back was delayed due to a blizzard. Kate and her family were so accommodating in extending his stay on such short notice. We felt at ease knowing that our Kofi was in good hands and loved!”

Zuko can be quite picky with his food, but Kajal handled his needs with great care and made sure he was well-fed and comfortable. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated with regular photos and videos, which gave me peace of mind and showed how well he was doing. I highly recommend Kajal to anyone looking for a responsible and thoughtful sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Isbath kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the week, and was always quick to respond. Brunson had so much fun with playing with her dogs, and he came home with so much energy we could tell he enjoyed his visit! Thank you again Isbath, we will definitely book with you again in the future!”

Shannon was AMAZING with our pup! She sent us pics and funny updates throughout his stay, which made me feel so comfortable knowing that he was being taken cared of. She took him on tons of walks and to the fenced in dog park. She also let him make himself comfy on her couch and bed so he was cozy. I would definitely recommend Shannon and will definitely book with her again if she is available.

Marsha was phenomenal. The first night my epileptic dog was there he had a seizure through no fault of hers. She was calm, communicative and compassionate. She handled it so well and with such responsibility and concern. Luckily for all, .the rest of my dogs’ stay was much less eventful! Despite it all, she fell in love with my dogs—it was obvious—and they seemed to adore her. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her if you want a responsible and loving sitter who is battle tested.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Highland Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Highland Park is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $78 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.

As of October 2026, there are 9,629 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Highland Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

94% of sitters in Highland Park can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Highland Park home-away-from-home, 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 Park.

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 Park 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 , 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 .

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.
