“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”
“Vickie & Heath watched my dog Ares for a few days this past week. The loving care both of them showed him made him feel extremely comfortable and safe while feeling like he was at home. This was extremely important to me as Ares is a rescue dog and has trouble trusting new people. He had no trouble warming up to Vickie & Heath and their gentle and caring nature for him. I would highly recommend Vickie & Heath to watch your precious fur babies for any period of time. I will be using them on a continuous basis moving forward. Thank you both again for taking such great care of Ares!!!”
“Great communication and loved all the pictures I received. My dog and I are pretty attached but I could tell he enjoyed his time, was sufficiently entertained and spoiled. I would absolutely book with Teresa again. Thank you!”
“Kathleen was great. We were nervous leaving our dog for 4 days but Kathleen and her family were great with her. She sent us alot of updates and pictures which was very reassuring!”
“Kenai had a terrific stay! Everything was super-easy: communication, dropoff, instructions, pickup. We got a photo and updates while we were away. Definitely recommended!”
“Camila and Omar were fantastic with my Blue. They sent so many pictures it made us feel at ease. Blue seemed to have a good time and made some new friends. Will definitely use them in the future.”
“Desi has stayed with them in the past, and they are wonderful! We had to add on a day last minute, and they were accommodating & sweet! They sent pics of our happy pup! We highly recommend, and (obviously) will use them again in the future! ♥️”
“Dawn took great care of our dog and sent daily pictures of him. We felt at ease on our trip knowing our dog was being looked after by Dawn. She loves animals and it shows. Will definitely contact Dawn again for future dog care. Excellent service!”
“Chazz is easily the best dog sitter I’ve found in the city! I have two dogs who can be a handful, one is very big and strong, and the other is highly leash reactive. Within seconds of meeting Chazz, they both loved him. He has such a natural way with dogs and immediately made them feel comfortable and at ease. I used to board my dogs at a facility, but I never really knew what kind of care and attention they were getting. Finding Chazz through Rover has been a game changer. He sent multiple photos each day, along with thoughtful updates that made it clear my dogs were happy and well cared for. They stayed with him for four days, and I genuinely didn’t worry once. Having that kind of peace of mind means so much. Chazz is kind, attentive, and clearly great with dogs. I’m so glad we found him and will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Colleen was wonderful with our Aussiedoodle, Rex. He is very high-energy, and she did an excellent job caring for him. She kept us updated throughout his stay by sharing photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very accommodating and easy to work with. I would not hesitate to use Colleen again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.”
“Kristen was wonderful! You can tell right off the bat how much she loves and knows dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She’s extremely responsive and sends pics and videos. My dog had a lot of fun playing with her dog Cashew and her adorable son. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Kristen in the future!”
“Kelsey and Conor were incredible. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to leave my 6-month Cav who just got spayed. They kept me up to date with pictures and loved Chloe like their own. Will be booking with them again!”
“This was our second time having Monica and Conrad watch Heron, our 6 month old puppy. This couple is so wonderful, they send pics every evening and take great care of our puppy. Heron LOVES playing with Pongo. Thank you as we know our furry baby is well taken care of.”
“Jia was great with my dogs! She sent daily updates and took good care of Terry and Ella. Jia was kind enough to work with me on early drop off and the dogs felt right at at home at her place. I would definitely come back again.”
“Cynthia took great care of my dog at her place. She followed instructions, kept me updated, and even made my dog rice to encourage her to eat. Her dog was very friendly with my nervous greyhound. They even played together in Cynthia’s back patio.”

Vickie took excellent care of my dog, Kona! We did a brief meet and greet prior to the booking to help my anxious girl get familiar with Vickie and her space and discuss the details of Kona’s care. I received regular photo and video updates throughout the stay which helped me feel at ease. Kona loved playing with the other pups there and seemed to have a really great time. Highly recommend Vickie & Heath’s services and will happily book again!

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Jobstown 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 Jobstown 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 Jobstown.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jobstown. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Jobstown 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
