“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”
“Susie came back well cared for and seemed to think it was her house that she stayed at for the weekend Catherine is welcoming and pleasant and my dog’s reaction to her says it all.”
“I couldn’t even possibly describe all my happiness in one post. They are the most phenomenal sitters! This was my first time using rover and they were so kind and described the process. From the meet and greet to the drop off and pick up all with ease. They sent so many pics!! And it truly put me to ease. They made me feel like I was leaving my dogs with family instead. I will definitely be working with them in the future without a doubt! And we love their dog Neo and their wonderful family!! The thought you put into taking care of them was just amazing!!!”
“Everything went beautifully, leaving my dog, MacKenzie, with Brandon! The reason why I know that is because he came back home with me with no show of anxiety. MacKenzie is a high-maintenance dog with all of the medications he needs to take. Thank you, Brandon, for taking my big concerns away from me during his stay with you!”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“We received daily pictures and updates, any specific instructions/guidance we had for our dog's care was heeded. Kiana is super friendly, responsive and responsible and our dog loves her Aunty Kiana. We would not hesitate to rely on her to watch and care foe our dog again!”
“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.”
About: I grew up with dogs and love spending time with them! I’ve helped watch families and friends pets and love being able to spend quality time with them! I’ve helped with dogs as small as malteses and as big as goldendoodles! Ive also helped dogs with specific needs such as blind and older dogs! I work remote one day a week so I’m happy to watch dogs or take them out, I just need a heads up to pick the day I work from home. I also typically work 8-4:30 so I’m happy to take dogs out in the mornings before work or as soon as I get home! I’m also happy to do weekends. I have a fenced yard for any pet to wander around in and am happy to walk them around my neighborhood park! No other pets in the home!
“Chelsea has watched my dog Willow twice now and each time is better than the next! She is very attentive, super easy to contact, and even sends pictures of my dog with Chelsea’s other furry friends or overnight guests! I feel secure knowing Willow is so entertained and well cared for. I highly recommend her and look forward to my own future bookings with her!”
“Katherine is an exceptional dog sitter. She is kind, attentive, and loved our pet like her own. She has full cooperation from her family and answers requests quickly. We now have rebooked her and do so without hesitation.”
“I’ve tried many Rovers for the past 5 years, but Thana and Subangi have been the best I’ve found. Their care, kindness and energy with the dogs is unmatched. I’d give them more than 5 stars if I could.”
“Nams has a calmed demeanor that instantly connects with pets. Snowy immediately knew she was in a safe and friendly environment. Very professional. I would definitely recommend her.”
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.
About: I’ve taken care of neighborhood dogs and cats for many years. Services include boarding, walking, feeding, playing etc. I can clean litter boxes and administer medications, as needed. I currently work full time but can fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I’m available before work (before 7:30am) and after work (after 4pm). I have a fenced in back yard for your dogs to run around in. I’m also available to come to your house for walks, feedings, or a simple check in.
“Can’t say enough about how great Debbi was with Buddy. Debbi’s warmth and love for animals was apparent from our first meeting. While we were away Debbi sent updates and pictures which was awesome! Do not have any hesitation in asking her to look after your pets. She is great!”
“Kate did an amazing job taking care of my baby kitten, Bella! She provided frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear my kitten was in great hands. Her care and attention to detail were exceptional, and I truly appreciated her reassurance throughout. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Dear Soumya and Gaurav - Thank you both for taking care of snowy. you guys did an amazing job in your pet care for snowy. appreciate your kind attention to him especially while feeding his daily medicine and making customized food preparation for him and your regular updates about him. You guys completely took away our worries about him, while we were gone to India. God bless and thank you so much once again. We will meet again next time, hopefully you can accommodate him.”

We just left Rocket at Gerry’s for 8 days while we went on our family vacation to St. Maarten. Rocket was so comfortable with Gerry while we were gone. It’s like his home away from home, and Gerry treats him as if he’s her own dog. Can’t thank her enough. Highly highly recommended!
We are so blessed to have found Brandon to watch our fur baby Whiskey. Brandon suggested to bring Whiskey over the night before so they can both get acquainted with each other. It was off to a shaky start because Whiskey was stressed about being in a new environment but Brandon was super patient during this time which made a Hugh difference in Whiskey feeling comfortable. Brandon was in touch with me daily either with pictures or messages which ease my worries. I highly recommend Brandon.
We left our Husky Bella with Anne for 12 days and we don’t have any complaints or problems! We love the way she care for our dog! Bella had a great time with her lovely Husky, I recommend 100% her care service! She was always sending me pictures and keeping me updated about Bella! Bella had so much fun, she played a lot! I would definitely rebook with her next time !
Andrea was amazing for our first boarding experience for a pup. She was honest and welcoming and I felt at complete ease with the care of our puppy. He was well cared for and happy the entire time. She was easy to access for any questions and was a pleasure to work with. Her home was well set up and safe for little chewers and explorers and her 2 dogs were gentle and friendly. Great experience

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hightstown on Rover is $34 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 2,003 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hightstown. 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 Hightstown 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 Hightstown 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 Hightstown 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 Hightstown.
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 Hightstown 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.
