“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!!!”

“Whitney and Michael took amazing care of Esther. Esther seems to have really enjoyed the stay and was kept entertained and loved by their young daughters. They did a great job of keeping us updated with cute photos. :) 10/10 would recommend Whitney and Michael’s home as a great place to board your dog!”

“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.”

“Subangi was EXCEPTIONAL with our little Simba. Anyone with a pet knows the stress of finding someone you can truly trust, and we felt so lucky to have found them on Rover. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and messages about Simba’s eating, sleeping, and how he was doing. She was patient, caring, and made sure Simba ate his meals and got all the attention he needed. Her kids were amazing with him too — giving him so much attention and treating him like their own pet. They are everything we could ask for in a sitter, and we are so thankful for the love and care they gave Simba.”

This is the 1st time someone has updated me each time he took his medication, which helped a lot to alleviate my concerns that someone will forget this. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“This is the third time our rescue Rosie has stayed with Mary and John. It is the first time we left her since COVID started though. We were a little nervous on how she would react to being without us since she’s been around us all the time since. It was another great experience, so glad we can go away and feel confident that she will be well looked after. Thank you John and Mary.❤️”

About: Hello thank you for your interest. I am an animal lover with many years of experience. I have cared for a variety of animals of all sizes. I have experience with administering medication. I work full time from home which allows me to have pets stay with me and they are not left alone. I am a responsible person who takes anything I commit to very serious. Your pet will be cared for and be given lots of love. My references are reputable and all my clients love me! **Full transparency I have a 3 year old rescue dog who gets along with all types of dogs and loves the company. If you would rather my dog not be present when I'm caring for your pup I can make arrangements for him to go to Grandma's** I work from home full time and I only take one family at a time up to 3 dogs. So I will only be caring for your pets. Your pets will be taken outside every hour they will have as many walks you prefer, but it's usually 3 walks a day depending on age, health, etc

About: I’ve been taking care of my special-needs pup, Dottie, for 8 years. She’s on a strict diet and takes meds too, so I’m good with following precise instructions. I have a loving and serene home where Dottie and I can welcome your pup. I work from home on Fridays, so I am available for boarding for long weekends. We could coordinate a Thursday evening drop-off if need be. On the weekends, I go to a pilates class and run errands, but am otherwise around as company for the dogs. My yard is only partially fenced, so I will be taking the dogs on leashed walks. Dottie sleeps in bed with me, so it’s okay if your pup needs to as well. If your dog is crate-trained, that is okay too.

Brandon is the best! He sent a lot of updates of Zuko and is always flexible and responsive. Zuko loves staying with Brandon and Milo. As soon as we drop him off, he’s comfortable as if he’s in his own home. We reach out to Brandon every time we go out of town and we’re at ease that Zuko is well cared for while we’re away.

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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Hightstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hightstown is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $67 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 2,017 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 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.

95% of sitters in Hightstown 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 Hightstown 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 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 , 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.
