“I am a first time dog owner and left our 1 year old Puppy with Manuel for four nights. We were anxious at first but Manuel quickly put us at ease with his responsiveness and his experience with dog care. He is truly one of a kind. I highly recommend his services and we will absolutely use him in the future!”
“Amanda and her family were fantastic with my dog, Molly! Molly was so comfortable and happy during her stay, and I really appreciated the daily updates and adorable pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands. Molly can’t wait to visit again. Highly recommend!”
“Amy was EXCELLENT with our golden doodle Abby while we were away. Super responsive before and during her stay and easy to communicate with. Also very flexible with scheduling and pickup/drop off times. We fully trusted Amy and her family while we were on vacation and knew she was in good care. Amy sent tons of photos and has a fully fenced in yard which Abby loved. Definitely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again soon!”
“Brain was very easy to work with. Meet and Greet was super easy and the actual boarding was super smooth. Max seems to have had a great time with Brian. I would highly recommend Brian.”
“Nathalie was very commutative throughout King’s entire stay. She sent pictures and made the process very seem less. I would recommend her to others and book her again for the future !”
“Eunice took excellent care of Cappy during the three days we were away! She kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell she read my notes about Cappy’s care. Cappy also had a wonderful time with Eunice’s family and her dog, Pincky! I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”
“Darien and her family took amazing care of my pup and we are so grateful. We will absolutely be back! She worked with me for a pre meet and greet for myself and my pup. She got my dog to be more comfortable with her food and her surroundings in a new place with ease.”
“Luis (and his wife Laura) were very welcoming to our small dog. He sent photo updates twice a day which was very reassuring. It’s great to have such a reliable and caring boarder in the same town!”
“Jonathan was flexible, responsive and easy to work with. He sent photos/video of our dog having lots of time outside, along with some reports on how he was doing. Our dog came home and seemed relaxed and not overly stressed.”
“Yuberkis always provides the best care for Elphaba. I never have to worry about her while I am away for work trips. This visit Elphaba made a few new pup friends! I loved seeing the photos and videos of her having a great time. It’s so comforting to have such trust in Yuberkis - she is truly wonderful.”
“Maisha was an amazing sitter for my pup! She restored my trust in the Rover platform after a couple of not so pleasant experiences…and he smelled amazing at pickup! I received morning and nightly updates with pics. Will definitely book again!!”
“I was so relieved that Beanie was in such good hands with Suely while we were away on a family trip for 10 days. I got pictures and an update every day, seeing Beanie play with other dogs, go for walks, and snuggle with Suely's family. Every day my whole family would stop to look at the pictures, delighting in the knowledge that Suely was taking such good care of our little Beanie. We'll definitely be back!”
“Patricia watched our dog Mojo for 2 weeks while we were out of the country She regularly updated us and sent pictures. She was so nice to work with. Pick up and drop off were easy. We could tell Mojo had the best time with her. I would highly recommend her.”
“Shaun and his family were an amazing host! He took very good care of our dog, taking her on daily walks, playing with her and sending frequent updates and pictures. We highly recommend Shaun and will look for him in the future.”
“Thank you Jillian and Andrew for taking care of our 8 month old puppy overnight! It was his first time sleeping out of our apartment, and we are happy that you were so flexible and caring. We loved receiving pictures of him while we were gone!”
“I would highly recommend Jamin to care for your pet. I have a senior dog with separation and general anxiety, however, she was comfortable with Jamin and his family. Jamin sent me videos and pictures the entire 3 days to let me see Ladybug in action. This calmed my fears of her being at a new home. Jamin was very flexible with drop off and pick up times as well. I will definitely use Jamin in the future. Thank you!”
“We are incredibly grateful to have discovered Jessica and I highly recommend her! As a nervous dog mom, entrusting our two doodles to someone other than a close friend was daunting. However, Jessica immediately put me at ease from our first meeting. She cares for them as if they were her own, and I knew they were in good hands, which was reaffirmed by the frequent pictures and videos she sent. After spending two full weeks with her, our dogs had such a blast that I was convinced they would be sad to leave her company… but they’ll be back again anytime we need a sitter.”
“Jessica is great with my dog Penelope. She takes lots of pictures and provides updates, and Penelope loves her dog. I always know Penelope is being spoiled and well taken care of when she’s with Jessica.”
“Digdem was absolutely fabulous. She was friendly and efficient. And she sent pictures of George snuggling with family members and having fun over the course of his stay. To top it off, she sent our happy pup home with a sweet little gift basket filled with treats and toys. Would recommend Digdem to anyone!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Livingston
Our dog, Coach, had a dream stay with Kristen over Christmas. He was treated like royalty. She handled his food and meds like the pro she is, but also carved out a path for him so he wouldn’t have to walk on the snow. She sent several videos a day, he looked SO happy. Can’t wait for the next opportunity to board him at Kristen’s house. He looked like he didn’t want to leave!!
Anna is such an amazing doggy host. Theo was so adorable and friendly. Her backyard is absolutely perfect. It's huge, wide open, totally fenced in, so much flat grass and even a patio for Reggie to cool off on. Reggie didn't want to leave when we picked him up and when we got home Reggie fell asleep so quick. It was such a relief to find such an amazing host who treated my dog like her own. 5 ⭐️'s all around!!!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Livingston on Rover is $72.15 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 13,767 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Livingston. 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.
95% of Livingston 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 Livingston 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 Livingston 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 Livingston.
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 Livingston 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.
