âThis was my first time using Rover and I was so happy with Maisha. She was so great with Charlie and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the time Charlie was with her. She was very attentive and Charlie had a great time staying with her.â

âChristina put an immense amount of attention into my dog Maia. She gave me an update with pics every night and gave me a sense of assurance that my dog was in great hands and being given a wonderful amount of attention. I will definitely ask Christina and her husband Nick to watch my dog in the future whenever I need to. 20/10 service!â

âMy sitter Andre took great care of our dogs. I received daily videos of them. We were very satisfied, above and beyond our expectations. I would book with Rover again!â

âChristian was great. He provided us with an update as to how our dog Foxy was doing in his care and when we did picker up from him, she looked very happy! We would use him again without hesitation!â

âIvette was amazing with Linnie! I got lots of pictures, and am happy Linnie had a cozy home with new friends while I was away. Definitely booking with them again!â

âAmazing experience with Mimiâs dog sitter! They were caring, reliable, and kept us updated the whole time. Mimi was happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend!â

âAngela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.â


âAmanda and her family took great care of Roy at their home. Amanda provided lots of updates and clearly gave Roy a lot of attention. He returned home very happy!â

âGrace was great with Bentley. I had a last minute request and I was so thankful she could help watch my pup. I got updates the entire time and felt so good with having a busy dayâ

âOur family will book with Ms. Refine & Beautiful over and over again!! This was our 2nd time booking and when we arrived and Leo heard her voice, he ran to her. It was beautiful to see as a dog mom because that means she cares for him so well that he missed her! I highly recommend this mother/daughter duo. Leo gets a lot of love in Ms. Refine's care, so I can only imagine how much more love he will get when Beautiful is home as well. đ There's nothing like the feeling of knowing your pet is safe and cared for.â

âHeidy was great! She took care of my pup Lady when I had to travel for a last-minute trip and it was incredibly easy. Sheâs easy to communicate with and I think Lady had a good time.â

âWe had a great experience and couldnât be happier with the care our 8 month old puppy received from Kinjal! We left him for one night and felt reassured knowing he was in such good hands. Kinjal took wonderful care of him, made sure he was comfortable, and gave him lots of attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being well cared for while we were away. We truly appreciate the love and attention Kinjal gave our fur baby and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their puppy. We would definitely book with her again! đžâ¤ď¸â

âJingyi and Kewei took care of Nala over the weekend. They are an excellent sitters. They kept me updated and sent me lots of videos and pictures. Nala looks so happy and comfortable with Jingyi, Kewei and Soju. I will definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!â

âKarla was amazing! I will absolutely recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to watch their dog. I have an 80 pound Bernedoodle who is 1 year old- which can be quite a handful lol. Karla sent me photos of him all throughout the stay. She has a backyard so he was running and playing all day. I picked him up an hour ago and heâs already sleeping like a baby. Karla is incredibly kind and trustworthy. She even gave us a card with pictures of our Apollo along with some gifts𼚠thank you Karla! I will definitely be using her services again whenever I go away.â

âAnna was absolutely amazing with our husky during the two weeks we were out of the country. We have traveled quite a bit over the years, so Whale has stayed with a number of different Rover sitters and families, and I can genuinely say that Anna was probably the best person we have ever boarded her with. From the very beginning, it was obvious how much Anna truly loves dogs and how much she cared about making Whale happy and comfortable. She went above and beyond in so many ways â she bought Whale toys, took her on trips to Petco, and made sure she was getting plenty of attention, activity, and love. What I appreciated most was the communication. Every single day, Anna sent us pictures, videos, and thoughtful, detailed messages telling us what they had been doing and how Whale was doing. Being out of the country for two weeks, that kind of communication gave us so much peace of mind. We never once had to wonder whether Whale was okay or whether she was being well cared for. Whale very clearly became part of Annaâs family while she was there, rather than simply being a dog she was boarding. You can tell that Anna genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs in her care, and that makes such a huge difference. We could not have asked for a better experience. Anna is incredibly caring, attentive, communicative, and trustworthy, and we would leave Whale with her again without hesitation. If you are looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for your dog while you are away, I cannot recommend Anna highly enough. Truly an exceptional Rover sitter!â

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover! Dogs and cats have always felt like family to me. Caring for animals brings me genuine joy, and I've put that into practice by volunteering with rescue organizations like See Spot Rescued. What sets me apart is reliability and real presence, I'm not just checking a box, I'm actually engaged: sticking close to your pet's normal routine, sending regular photo/video updates so you can relax while you're away, and paying attention to the little things (favorite spots, feeding quirks, anxiety triggers) that help a pet feel comfortable in a new situation. Your pet will get the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule that fits pet care in naturally, I'm not squeezing visits in around a commute or rigid office hours. I'm available for overnight sits and walks throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, so I can be consistent and reliable whether it's a one-off walk or a longer stay. Because I'm home most of the day, your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. I can check in, take breaks for walks or play, and keep an eye on things throughout the day rather than just morning and evening. My home is an apartment with easy access for walks, so getting your dog outside for a bathroom break or a stroll is quick and simple. I'm also close to a park, so I can take dogs there for longer walks, extra exercise, or just some time to sniff around and enjoy the outdoors. I don't currently have other pets in the home, so your dog or cat gets my full attention without having to navigate another animal's territory or temperament. I keep a close eye on pets at all times, no unsupervised outdoor time, secure doors and gates checked before any potty breaks, and a calm, clean space for them to settle into. If I'm sitting at your home instead, I follow the same principles: I stick closely to your routines and instructions, keep exits secure, and treat your space with the same care and respect I'd want for my own.

Kinjal was amazing with Timmy. This is our first time leaving him with someone other than family so we were a bit worried. After the inital meetup, talking with Kinjal, and seeing where he would be staying, my worries started to fade. During the boarding, Kinjal communicated daily with photo and video updates and frequently asked questions about Timmy in order to provide the best care of him. We will definitely go with Kinjal again. Highly recommended!

Maria took such good care of Zoe! Zoe is a bit of an anxious dog and she took to Maria immediately. I could tell from the pics that Maria sent, that Zoe was calm and happy and very well cared for. We will surely reach out to Maria again to watch Zoe the next time weâre out of town.

Jessica has been absolutely wonderful - she provided great care for our dog while we were away. Our dog is very slow to trust people but Jessica managed to gain his trust almost immediately. She took great care in providing him his medications plus his dietary food, and it was obvious that he had a great time staying with her! Thank you Jessica!
Fran was wonderful with our dog! She was incredibly kind and caring, and Nova took to her right away. Fran made sure Nova was eating well and kept us updated each day with pictures and messages about how she was doing. We felt completely at ease knowing Nova was in such great hands. We would definitely recommend Fran!

To say Caita was a life saver is putting it lightly. She stepped up and rescued Louie from a very stressful situation. Not only did she drive and pick him up , she treated him like it was her own dog. She went above and beyond what was expected of her and turned a nightmare into a dream . I am beyond grateful for Caita and highly recommend her to anyone !

Katherine took fantastic care of our two pups! This was our first time boarding with her, so naturally a bit nervous, but almost immediately after dropping off we started getting updates about the dogs. Photos and videos, showing happy and well-cared for dogs with wagging tails! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur babies and putting us at ease!
Christian and his family were amazing with our 15-year-old Chihuahua, Cocoa. She has some medical needs, and we were nervous to leave her with a stranger for a week. Christian's experience and friendly, calm demeanor put us at ease. He was patient, understanding and gave her time to adjust. He was in regular communication with me throughout the week, and took photos to show how she was doing. She came home happy. We will definitely be in touch with Christian again when we need a sitter. Thanks so much for giving Cocoa a good week, Christian!

Oscar was SO EXCITED to go over to Pete's house - I swear, he figured out what was happening 10 minutes beforehand, and waited by the back door for us to let him out. He flew into the house without so much of a backwards glance. Oscar spent several hours with Pete and when he came back home, he was happy and exhausted!! Little snuggle bug went right to sleep. Thank you for keeping him busy and happy, Pete!!!
Mariam was absolutely wonderful with my dog and you can tell she genuinely cares. My dog loved her, and her space was so clean and welcoming. She kept me updated with photos and was always quick to respond, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be booking with her again.

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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Lyndhurst can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Lyndhurst 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 Lyndhurst.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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 Lyndhurst sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
