“Betsy took great care of our dog! She sent great daily pictures of what our Max was doing and kept a great schedule with him. At the end of the stay, he even sat by her side. Highly recommend!”
“We left our little girl Violet, a very loved 5 yo Lhasa Apso, in the care of Sandra and San this past weekend. From the moment Sandra and I met, I could see how loving and caring she was for her own adorable pup, Penny. We did a meet and greet and Violet and Penny got along beautifully! We knew Violet would be in good hands. Throughout the weekend, we received pictures and we could see just how comfortable and happy Violet was! When it was pickup time, all her belongings were together and packed for home. We felt comfortable, confident and excited to find a place we can trust for Violet when she can’t be with us! We highly recommend Sandra and San! Your pups will thank you for it too!”
“I can’t recommend them enough! We were nervous to leave Elsa with anyone, but they were wonderful and treated her like family. The frequent updates kept our minds completely at ease. They were absolutely wonderful and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“Randi was amazing in how she cared for my puppy, Jupiter, while I had to go out of town for a few days. She kept in touch with me throughout the duration of his stay at her place. She kept him engaged, took him for long walks and bathed him. She even went the extra mile and got him new toys and a bed! That took me by surprise, since I believe it’s really hard to find someone who can have that level of attachment to a puppy unless it’s their own puppy! Thank you so much, Randi, for looking after Jupiter like he’s part of your home and family!”
“Waylyn enjoyed her time with Sulyema and Luna this weekend! She got to go to the dog park and got sooo many steps in! I received lots of photos, which are my favorite while away from my baby. Would definitely let her stay again on my next weekend away!”
“Heather is a fantastic doggy sitter. She was very proactive with providing updates and sending pics and videos. Asher was well taken care of and entertained. Whether it was playing fetch around the house or taking fun, long walks at the park right next door, Asher was super happy, comfortable and loved. I HIGHLY recommend Heather!”
“Vanessa was a great host for Stella on very short notice. She was very communicative and sent multiple updates throughout the day. I will most definitely be using Vanessa again.”
“Susan is amazing! She was so attentive and considerate with my dog, Riley. Susan was communicating with me and sent me many adorable pictures. It was comforting to know that Riley is well taken care of and I was able to focus on my event. I’m so grateful for Susan! Thank you for taking great care of Riley! You’re the best!!”
“WOOF-WOOF! That's Dexter, my puppy, saying THANK YOU, to Marcus & Antonio C for making his stay so enjoyable. These two guys are terrific, kind and thoughtful. The "two degrees of separation" proved to be "magical" too. Dex loves Marcus & Antonio, and you will too! David & Tammy”
About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs, whether it’s my sister’s or my cousin’s dog. As a nurse, I already have the compassion and caretaking qualities. If you’ll entrust your best friend to me, I’ll give them plenty of love and care. I’m a night shift nurse working three shifts a week. I’m always trying to take advantage of the daytime to catch some sun- hopefully your dog will join me in those times on a sweet stroll. A firm believer in touching grass, I’d dedicate my stretches of days off when I’m not working to take your furfriend out for some much deserved playtime! I live in an apartment that is dog friendly. My home has plenty of space albeit a one-bedroom unit. There is a security system built into place as well.
“We had an amazing experience with this dog sitter! They took such great care of our three dogs, showed genuine love and attention, and kept us updated the whole time. It gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely use them again—highly recommended!”
About: I have two siblings with a rescue dog each and I have been the go-to auntie to dogsit for them for years. Anytime anyone’s need to go on a trip, Auntie’s got them 💪. I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can give them the attention, the cuddles, the walks, and the treats they need to be absolutely cared for. I work a remote job from 9-5. It’s not demanding so I have lots of flexibility. I will do walks in the mornings and evenings and can fit in a fun one in the afternoon for a little nature enrichment. Meal times are how the dog parents want. They can have access to my furniture and bed. I see myself as their auntie and they will be treated with the best love and care. My apartment is right next to a train so there will be loud train noises every few hours. I’m hoping this doesn’t spook the babies but please keep that mind.
“Christine was such a fantastic caretaker for our miniature schnauzer! Her two dogs were friendly and kept him busy all week and they looked like they had a lot of fun. I was sent plenty of fun pics and videos throughout my time away. Would definitely book again!”
“Amarys was amazing with my dog, Diamond! She took such great care of her, played with her, took her on lots of walks, and kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Diamond was. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Diamond absolutely loved her. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Amarys again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Symone was great with Charley, she stayed in contact with me the whole time and gave me updates about how he was doing. I would definitely board with her again!”
“Jessica was wonderful with Mousse and really attentive with her complicated medication schedule. She was also very accommodating after we were delayed in picking her up, and couldn't have been nicer or more understanding. Would recommend to anyone, and will definitely look to her for our next boarding opportunity.”
“Chulmin (Chris) did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Lulu! From the very beginning, he was communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. He sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Lulu was happy and well looked after. What made it even better was that his sweet dog, Molly, was such a wonderful companion for Lulu. Lulu was so excited to have a playmate!I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Andrew was very accommodating with our schedule changes and has incredible handling skills and knowledge of working my dog who has reactivity issues. Will definitely board with him again.”
“Christina was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Phire! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated with thoughtful messages with photos that showed how much love and care she provided. Christina took Phire on long walks, ensuring she got plenty of exercise and stimulation. She fed her right on schedule (including her supplement) and made sure she felt completely at home. Phire was so relaxed and happy at Christina’s house—it was clear she was in great hands. Christina’s professionalism, warmth, and dedication made us feel so comfortable leaving Phire with her. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”

Mohini was absolutely wonderful with my dog! 🐶❤️ She was very caring, reliable, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with her. She kept me updated and took such great care of everything. I really appreciate her kindness and would definitely recommend Mohini to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I would happily book with her again!
Our dog stayed with Mariah for two weeks and had a wonderful time! She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Mariah was incredibly attentive to his needs and always quick to respond. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Cosmo had a great week with Andrew. We loved seeing all of the the videos and pictures during his stay. Andrew was very flexible with our travel arrangements and we were able to pick up Cosmo at a time that was convenient for us. Cosmo came home, well behaved, tired, and excited to see us. We will definitely be reaching out to Andrew again for dog sitting.
Sandra is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. Thanks to her love and attentive care over the past two weeks, Cookie had what was probably the best time of her doggy life while we were away. The only catch is that because she showered her with so much love, Cookie misses Sandra and Penny terribly now.
My dog immediately liked Karla and didn't mind a bit when I left the house. Karla did an excellent job of sharing photos and updates during my dog's stay, so I was always at ease. I greatly appreciated how flexible Karla was with the advance notice changes to the pickup and drop off times. If I ever need overnight care again, I've got Karla on speed dial!
We had a great experience all around with our booking with Lisa. Her accommodation to provide a safe and welcoming home for our dog was more than satisfactory! She is a professional. I am hyper vigilant when it comes to my dog, and Lisa addressed and reassured me of my every concern. There was an immediate connection between our dog, Lisa, and her family. I highly recommend Lisa for the excellent service that she provides!
Amazing dog sitter! She was friendly, flexible, and clearly cared about my dog's comfort the whole time. She sent photo updates throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. My dog loved her instantly and was happy and relaxed the whole time. Highly recommend — will definitely book again!
Moonyoung and Sunhyung are AMAZING. This was our first time leaving our puppy with someone else and also our first time using Rover. They were so amazing with all of the updates and pictures throughout the day. They took our pup to the park and took him out of walks multiple times a day. They are also super responsive in case you have any questions or concerns. We’re so glad we found people who we can trust!
My dog Parker had a wonderful time. It was so nice to know he was treated as family and loved while away. From the updates to pictures was wonderful. Stephanie and her family were amazing. Can not say enough how wonderful she is. Thank you for treating my baby like your own!!!! Best care ever
Christine is great and very caring for my fur baby. She paid attention to Furball’s food and exercises. She also sent tons of great pictures and updates during the stay. Furball had a great time and made new friends. Very happy and I trust her to sit Furball in the future. Thank you Christine
We had a wonderful experience with Edelann and Lax and felt completely at ease leaving Buddy with them. They were communicative, warm, and clearly treated him like part of the family. Buddy had a great time - he loved playing with their dog Akira and enjoying their big backyard, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable throughout his stay. We also really appreciated the updates and the attentive care they provided. We’re so grateful for the love and care they showed Buddy and would absolutely trust them again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Little Ferry on Rover is $61.05 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 14,091 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Little Ferry. 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.
96% of Little Ferry 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 Little Ferry 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 Little Ferry 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 Little Ferry.
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 Little Ferry 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.
