“Aeli is an amazing sitter. I try to choose sitters who have their own dogs so my own can socialize. I think (since I can’t read her mind) my pup had a great time. Aeli sent numerous pictures which were greatly appreciated. We will definitely book again!”
“Liz and her family were great! They took excellent care of my pup during the day. I felt at ease knowing that Louie was safe and having fun. I would definitely use Liz again for doggy daycare!”

“Eric was awesome! I needed someone to watch Murph for the day and none of my regulars were available. Eric was my last chance and lucky for us he was available. But the real story here is that it was a great experience. Eric was extremely nice, easygoing and both him and his wife were very personable. I felt like I had known him all along and he that had watched Murphy before. Their dog, Bacon, is as gentle as can be and got along well with Murphy. I definitely will look to use Eric's services in the future.”
About: Hi! 😊 My name is Eleanor. We accept only one client at a time! We are home full time. I have always loved dogs! I love discovering the unique personalities of every dog I meet whether it's on a walk, in my care, or at a dog adoption event. I have provided dog care for my friends and neighbors for 40+ years. I have also fostered many dogs and puppies for a local rescue group. I have experience with senior dogs and young puppies. Hi! I am home full time which means your dog will get a lot of attention and TLC. Playtime and potty: Numerous backyard time throughout the day Meal time: I typically separate the dogs during meals so they do not 'share' :) I require a meet and greet with your dog before a scheduled stay to make sure your dog gets along with my pets and feels comfortable in our home. You may want to book daycare before a longer stay so your dog gets used to our home. It is important that your dog is well behaved and is not aggressive or reactive to other dogs. Our cat keeps to himself most of the day. We live in a single family home with a fenced-in yard (6' high PVC) and 1 friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We also have a XL crate that can be used if your dogs prefers. The cat litter is kept in a room blocked off by pet gates where only the cat will have access.
“Honestly I am super satisfied and very happy with the care my pups received from Rocio. She kept me updated throughout the day with my pups, played with them, walked them, fed them, and loved them as if they were her own. The pups definitely enjoyed the care Rocio gave them and they even smelled good when I got them! Rocio was very understanding and flexible with what I needed in terms of schedule. I also love the fact that she has other dogs for my dogs to be exposed and got along so well with my pups. Would definitely recommend her and would use her again!”

“Victoria watched our 11 month old Cavapoo twice and we are very happy with the whole experience! She was quick to respond and easy to plan with. She sent pictures and updates all throughout the stay. Our pup looked so happy playing with her pups! The second time we dropped our pup off she ran and pulled towards the house and was so excited to be back. Great overall experience!”
“Fantastic sitter. Very responsive and shares many updates throughout the day. Their dog was also very well trained and got along so well with our puppy. Can definitely recommend”

I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I prioritize patience, safety, exercise, affection, and keeping each dog comfortable in a familiar home environment. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications when needed, and each pet’s individual personality. My goal is simple: give your dog a safe, happy, and stress-free stay while giving you complete peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-ins, with especially good availability on weekdays after 2 PM and throughout weekends. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including walks, meals, playtime, rest, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I’ll work with you to make their stay as comfortable and consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced yard where dogs can safely get exercise and enjoy supervised outdoor play, along with a comfortable home environment for relaxing and sleeping. I also have two friendly dogs who can provide companionship when appropriate, while always respecting each guest’s temperament and boundaries. Dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I’m happy to follow your specific feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and at home.

Whether it’s a high‑energy puppy who needs structure or a senior dog who needs gentle support, I adapt my care to match exactly what your pet needs.

“Allison did a great job caring for my puppy Nacho! She sent me videos and pictures of his day and let Nacho play outside in a fenced area with her friendly two dogs. He had a great time and was so sleepy when he came home 🤗”
“Evelyn and her husband took such great care of our pup, Weller. They were responsive, sent us photos, and were flexible with our schedules. Weller really seemed to get along with their dogs and I know she is looking forward to her next play date at their house. We will absolutely book Evelyn again! Thank you both so much!”
“Ryder had such a great time at Monica and Kelvin’s! She is usually quite anxious in new environments, but they were very patient with her. She can’t wait to go back.”
“We were so very pleased that we found Andrea on Rover. We went for a meet and greet first and liked everything about Andrea and her clean cozy doggie care environment! We used her for Doggy day care today for 6 hours while we attended a family party. It went perfectly. She sent photos during that time which puts your mind at ease. We were particularly nervous because we had never hired a sitter for our 12 year old Brandi. She’s only 12 minutes from our home which is another big plus for us. Her home is so well taken care of and she has a ground level well groomed back yard that is fenced and well lit. Andrea checked ALL the boxes for us!! Thank you so much! We’ll be back for sure!”
“Tammy was an excellent choice to watch our puppy. She took great care to make sure our baby was kept cool indoors during a very hot day. Occasional outdoor breaks in the fenced-in yard were perfect. We’ll be a repeat client for sure.”

Tyler has cared for my dog twice, and both experiences were excellent. He was always waiting outside for pickup and drop-off, which made the transition easy and stress-free. My dog went right to him both times and seemed genuinely happy to see him, which gave me a lot of confidence in his care. On our second visit, I accidentally clipped her leash to her name tag ring instead of her collar. She slipped free and ran after another dog across the street. Thankfully, Tyler reacted immediately, ran after her, and safely secured her. It was a scary moment, and I was incredibly grateful for how quickly and calmly he handled it. The fact that my dog was excited to return for a second stay spoke volumes. I'm thankful she was in such caring and capable hands and would happily recommend Tyler to other pet parents.
Great experience! They took really good care of Quinn and made sure she was happy and comfortable the whole time. I appreciated all the updates and photos - it made me feel at ease while I was at work. Quinn got nice walks and plenty of attention, and it was clear she was in good hands. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you for taking such good care of her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Ho-Ho-Kus on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 11,127 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Ho-Ho-Kus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Ho-Ho-Kus commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,127 sitters in Ho-Ho-Kus, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
