Bob and his wife took very good care of our fur babies. When we picked them up post our trip both seemed content and happy. Desi was lounging on the sofa and Hunter seemed to be happy roaming around his vacation environment. We will definitely use Bob for future Dog Vacations.

We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Fatima was patient, caring and reliable. We received updates regularly, giving us peace of mind while we were away that our dog was well cared for. Would definitely use her again!

Krystal was a wonderful caregiver to my 12.5yr old frenchie, Honey, who requires oral medication as well as eye drops. Krystal was very responsive during booking and during Honeys stay. Her dog Kilo is chill and he welcomed Honey to his pack for 5 days. I will certainly check with Krystal when Hobsy needs a place to stay.

Deena provides a warm and friendly environment with a huge enclosed yard perfect for pups of all kinds. She sent us pics at least once a day and kept us well informed about how our pup was doing. This was our first time using Deena and we will do so again!

Jamie creates a very calm and comfortable space for our shy and sometimes timid small dog (who gets excellent care, naps, walks, and attention). We're really happy we found her and even more pleased that our dog loves her time with her.

I’m speechless! Shelleen is a godsend! I recently moved to the area and was nervous about trying a new sitter but she has exceeded all my expectations and my anxious dog was very comfortable and happy staying with her. I received lots of updates and advice and can’t wait to use her services again! Very professional, patient and accommodating to our needs.

We were referred to Lorrie through a friend and worked with her for a test run for our 8 month golden puppy. Recently, we’ve been dealing with a bit of separation anxiety with our Frankie but Lorrie made him feel right at home and he settled in nicely. This was such a relief for my wife and I as we have some trips planned soon. It’s so comforting knowing Frankie has a place to go that will treat him like family! Couldn’t recommend Lorrie enough!

The best dog sitter that anybody could ever have. He’s very loving to my animals. He does all extra things that I don’t ask him to do like baths. I do believe he plays with them and has a good time with them and makes them feel at home. I know if she’s watching them that they’re safe.

Jane was so lovely and her dog Fancy is so cute! Our puppers needed a one night boarding while we were at a wedding. Jane took great care of him and sent so many photos, videos, and updates throughout the night and the next morning. She asked great questions if she was unsure of things. I loved the communication and flexibility Jane provided. Our dog was so happy when we came back to pick him up which let us know he had a great time at Jane’s! Would definitely recommend as a sitter!

Jamie is hands down one of the best sitters I have ever had for my dog Walter. She treats him as if he were hers, providing plenty of delicious treats, lots of play and walk time, and of course cuddles. I could not be more grateful for her!

FAQs for Boarding - Highlands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Highlands on Rover is $69.37 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 13,120 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Highlands. 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 Highlands 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 Highlands 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 Highlands 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 Highlands.

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 Highlands 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.
