My puppers came back happy, tired, and safe.”

“Kristen was amazing! I was staying at a hotel nearby for a wedding and found her. Her great reviews sold me on choosing her and it was the right choice. Very communicative and sent lots of photos! Asked detailed questions about his routine/schedule to make sure he’d be ok. She was nice and flexible with me for pickup/drop off knowing it was a drive for me and I had family events that didn’t have an actual end time set (just approximate) If I’m in the area again and needed a sitter I’d 1000% rebook!”

She treated Simba as if he was her own dog and sent us pics of their wonderful time together multiple times a day. Simba loved it and felt at home. We are so glad we found Jean as she will be our go-to person moving forward.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Emiko! This was our first time having her watch our dog, Doodle, while we were away, and she was an absolute delight—cheerful, professional, and so easy to work with. Doodle had unfortunately twisted her front leg just a few days before our trip. Emiko went above and beyond to give her extra gentle care, ensuring she didn't strain her leg and making sure she finished her remaining medication. Doodle usually gets anxious and refuses to eat in unfamiliar places, but thanks to Emiko’s thoughtful attention, tender care, and adjusted walk routine, Doodle felt right at home immediately. Her property is beautiful, spacious, and completely safe for dogs to explore. Plus, Emiko kept us updated every single day with thoughtful check-ins, which completely removed any worries we had about leaving Doodle in a new environment. She truly treated Doodle like a member of her own family—and Doodle clearly felt the same way, nuzzling up to Emiko and her daughter to express her gratitude! We whole-heartedly recommend Emiko to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy home away from home for their pet. We will definitely be back!

James is FANTASTIC. Incredibly communicative, cared about our girl and went above and beyond to take care of her when our travel plans shifted. We are so so thankful for James and will continue to utilize him on future trips. Our dog Violet was hesitant to leave his place when I went to get her! Thank you, James!

I couldn’t be happier with Stefanie! She is incredibly responsible and took such wonderful care of my dog. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs, took my dog running every day, and spent plenty of time with my dog so my dog always had exercise and companionship. I also really appreciated the frequent photos and videos she sent, which kept me updated on how my dog was doing and gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’m extremely satisfied with Stefanie’s care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy Rover!

From the moment Bear and Grizzy arrived at Corey’s, they were welcomed in like family. We could see that our pups were comfortable and well cared for while we were away through photos shared during our trip. Grateful to have found Corey and his family who feel like an extension of home for our pups. Will 100% be returning for future stays!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Hillsborough

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Hillsborough is $62 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $61 and $75 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.

There are 2,277 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hillsborough. About 90% of Hillsborough sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
