“Ken and Irene are great! This is the first time we left our golden doodle Kobe with them. We were a bit worried about Kobe feeling anxious, but he was perfectly fine and happy. They took great care of him, sent daily pics and updates. Kobe had a great time staying with Ken and Irene. He will definitely be back!”
“Lisa was so loving and caring to Jupi during his stay. She made sure he was never alone and took the extra step to make sure he ate his food given he recently has started requiring add-ons to his regular dry food. She regularly sent me pictures and was always very responsive. Thank you for taking care of Jupi, we will definitely bring him back.”
“Pam took great care of my Rosiejune. She walked her, played with her and did her belly rubs. I recommend highly. I will use her again. Thanks for making us comfortable being away from Rosiejune.”
About: Hello! Thank you so much for checking out my profile! I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I provide one-on-one, personalized care for small dogs and puppies in a calm, loving home. I only accept one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention—perfect for dogs who do best in a quiet, stress-free environment. Due to my work schedule the following are my available drop off and pick up times: Drop Off: 7:00 am - 9:00 am Pick Up: 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm **Latest Pickup Time 7:00 pm** I’ve raised my own dogs from puppyhood and fostered puppies, focusing on routines, potty training, and positive habits. I’m happy to reinforce training while your dog is with me. **Please be sure to provide your pups favorite treats so I can reward and encourage positive habits and training they are working on.** Dogs enjoy their own personal space in my living room, enjoying a cozy, home-like setting with plenty of affection, playtime, and rest. each dog deserves their own comfortable space to rest and decompress. There are two cozy couches in the living room to snuggle on with their favorite toy. I also have a roomy dog pen set up in my living room used as a safe management tool when dogs are unsupervised or need downtime, so it’s important that anyone staying in my home is able to settle comfortably in a crate. Your dog also has the option to snuggle in on the couch I also offer supervised outdoor time and walks on my property (unfenced large yard, always closely monitored). You’ll receive regular photo updates so you can stay connected while you’re away. As a special needs teacher, I bring patience, consistency, and attentiveness to every dog I care for. I also offer flexible scheduling, including holidays and summer afternoons. If you’re looking for a dedicated sitter for your small dog or puppy, I’d love to connect—feel free to reach out! I provide dedicated, one-on-one care for small dogs and puppies on weekends, school breaks, and holidays. As a teacher, my schedule allows me to fully focus on your pup during these times. I’m available when school is out, and I can provide consistent, calm care that fits into your dog’s routine. Your pup will enjoy a calm, safe, and thoughtfully personalized experience designed around their unique needs. Each day begins with a gentle, unhurried arrival to help your dog feel comfortable and at ease in my home. Throughout the day, I provide dedicated one-on-one attention, including enrichment, play, and plenty of affection in a peaceful environment tailored especially for small dogs and puppies. Dogs enjoy supervised leashed outdoor walks on my private property for fresh air and exercise (unfenced and always closely monitored), balanced with ample time to relax and rest comfortably indoors. I’m also happy to reinforce potty training, routines, and positive behaviors to support consistency from home. You’ll receive curated photo updates so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away. At the end of the day, your pup will return home relaxed, content, and exceptionally well cared for.
“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”
About: When you leave your dog with me, you’re trusting me with a beloved member of your family—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to provide a calm, loving home where your dog feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. In addition to my own friendly toy poodle, I limit the number of guest dogs in my home to one at a time so each one receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Exception may be made for two dogs from the same family. As a therapy dog handler, I’ve developed a patient, gentle approach and understand the importance of reading a dog’s body language. I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel right at home while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and loved. I look forward to welcoming your dog into my home and treating them like one of the family. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home for the majority of the day. While I occasionally step out for personal errands or appointments, it’s typically only for short periods (generally no more than a few hours). My schedule allows me to provide plenty of companionship, attention, and care throughout your dog’s stay. I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fenced yard, an enclosed deck, and a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Since I specialize in small dogs, they’re never left unattended outdoors and are always closely supervised.

“Thanks Ankita...They were attentive, reliable, and clearly cared for my dog like their own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well taken care of.”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“Paola is a great caregiver. She and her family took very good care of our very elderly dog who needs constant special care and attention due to his age and kidney disease. At this age and with frequent need to pee, it takes a lot of work to keep him clean and from having accidents and mixing his prescription food twice a day. Paola did an excellent job caring for him, washing his bedding and clothes, giving him lots of petting and love to keep him comfortable and happy while we were away for a very long 12 days. I highly recommend Paola as an excellent, experienced dog sitter and are super grateful to her and her family for the daily updates and pictures, and for giving us a peace of mind knowing that our Desi was happy and well cared for. She and her son also were so generous in giving him a bath too, so he could come home clean. Thank you, Paola.”
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Christina and her husband Nick were amazing! She had questions ready prior to the booking to insure the best care for my dog Marley, she sent me constant update and pictures, and made me feel super comfortable. I will definitely be booking with Christina again! Marley loved both of them and I’m sure he looks forward to seeing them again.”
“This is the 2nd time Kun and his wife watched over Thor, and Thor never wants to leave. He had so much fun with them and their puppy Som. Thank you for always taking such great care of Thor and for always being incredible communicators!”
“We are so lucky to have found Morgan! When our long time dog sitter moved away, we needed to find a new sitter for our two energetic German Shorthairs. From the beginning, Morgan was wonderful. She was responsive to all of our questions. She has a large, fenced-in backyard which was a must. During our time away, Morgan kept us updated with messages and pictures which helped us appreciate that the dogs were in great hands. We also appreciated her willingness to let us bring their big dog beds to help them feel more “at home”. When we picked up our pups, I could tell right away how happy and well-cared for they were. We will definitely be using Morgan again!”
“Our family was traveling overseas for a week and for the first time ever, could not bring our beloved Emi (a Pekingese) with us. (We usually bring her on our vacations and stay in pet-friendly hotels.) This was my first time using Rover and I chose Hope based on her incredible reviews, (despite being farther away from where I live), and I am so glad to have found her! As many have mentioned, Hope stayed in contact and regularly shared pictures of our Emi getting lots of love from her whole family :) We were worried that Emi would just be in some corner of the home, like a kennel, but were so relieved and encouraged to see that she quickly became part of the family. I seriously think Emi was sad to leave them- which is a great thing! It means she had a blast and felt comfortable and loved. Thank you Hope for taking such great care of Emi and for alleviating our anxieties. We look forward to using you again and again! So thrilled to have found you.”

Sloane took excellent care of our cat Sammy. She took her time to find out about his routine and cared about his well being. She sent us regular updates with pictures/videos of him which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her.
Brittny is great! Digby felt right at home and he loved playing with her kids and their dog Benji for hours and hours in their huge yard! She sent great happy photos over the weekend, and is easy to work with around pick up and drop off. We are so happy we found this loving family.
We had a very positive experience from start to finish, beginning with scheduling and completing the meet and greet, as well as the smooth drop-off and pick-up process. Lucy truly enjoyed her stay with Kimberly and Tom, and she came back happy and clearly well cared for. We will definitely return for our future boarding needs. Thank you for making the entire process so pleasant!
Celeste is AMAZING!! Do not hesitate for a moment to leave your pet with her and her family. She was wonderful with our puppy and sent us pictures and videos! He was treaded like part of the family in her home. He came home happy and well cared for. I will 100% be using Celeste again to care for Hank!!

There are 13,490 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Mahwah. About 88% of Mahwah sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
