Caroline took absolutely amazing care of my puppy. She kept sending us photos and videos of him while in her care. He came back super happy with his time off ?. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be taking her up on future opportunities for care!

Milena was amazing I felt so comfortable leaving my sick girl with her. She was careful to write down all medication instructions (4 different medications taken 2 or 3 times a day) She was also kind to me - I had never left my dog with a stranger let alone when she was sick. I am sooo grateful Milena helped me. She sent pictures and told me how everything was going. I have already asked her to be my go to when I must leave my dog for a few days. She is awesome … so loving and caring I felt soooo lucky to have happened upon a kind soul to care for my helpless sick dog while I had to be away. I highly recommend her and am soo grateful to have met her on this app - Milena thank you for your help.

Ekaterina took the best care of our dog, Charlie. She communicated with us daily, keeping us in touch with our Charlie’s day. Charlie looked so happy and comfortable which made us even happier and more comfortable. We’re grateful that we found someone who can give us peace of mind when we go away and have to leave Charlie behind. We will definitely look for Ekaterina again for any future stays.

Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.

I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

We are incredibly thankful to Rajan for boarding our dog, Loki, for a little over two weeks. Loki was so well cared for and looked genuinely happy throughout her stay. She loved getting to play with other pups, which made the experience even better for her. Rajan is clearly an animal lover and treated Loki as if she were his own. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We’re very grateful for the care and attention Rajan provided and would highly recommend him.

About: I’ve been providing pet care for years and have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I also have over 100 five-star testimonials from past clients on another platform that I’m happy to share upon request. I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral medications and injections such as insulin, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions to keep pets happy and healthy. I work from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and one-on-one care throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is being cared for as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love. I’m very active and enjoy long walks, outdoor time, and keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged. I can easily adapt to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and at home while you’re away. I’m up early and very active throughout my day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. After years of providing pet boarding, I’ve intentionally adapted my home to create a safe environment for visiting pets. I have secure locking pet gates to safely block access to stairways when needed, non-slip stair grips to help prevent slips and falls, and indoor security cameras that allow me to monitor pets and review any unexpected situations if necessary. Because I work from home, pets receive constant supervision, individualized attention, and very little time alone. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions, to help them feel comfortable and at ease. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive, personalized care.

My workday follows a consistent routine, allowing me to provide dependable pet care before and after school, as well as on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals by taking them on walks, engaging them in playtime, and making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship. During the summer and other school vacations, I have even greater flexibility to provide extended care, overnight stays, or multiple daily visits. Being a teacher has also strengthened my ability to stay calm, follow detailed instructions, and recognize individual needs, which helps me provide personalized care for every pet. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, you can count on me to provide reliable and compassionate care every time. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I make sure they have access to fresh water, a safe space to rest, and opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your home as if it were my own. I keep the space clean, secure, and follow any household rules or instructions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for, while giving pet parents confidence that their furry family member is in trustworthy and dependable hands.

Tiara was amazing with Bucket while we were traveling! She sent daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated and looked forward to every day. Bucket needed a little time to settle in, but Tiara made a few thoughtful accommodations for him and he became so comfortable there. When I picked him up, he seemed happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. The sweetest touch was the goodie bag Tiara sent Bucket home with, full of fun toys, treats, and even custom accessories. Such a thoughtful surprise! Thank you, Tiara, for taking such good care of my big baby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter.

Jordy T. took excellent care of my dog, Beanz! From the moment I booked, Jordy was responsive, communicative, and kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Beanz looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I was so impressed with the experience that I’m already rebooking with Jordy again this weekend! I highly recommend Jordy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter.

Our pups had a great time with Conner! We received frequent photos and videos throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see the girls getting plenty of playtime with the other dogs staying there—they looked like they were having a blast! Conner was excellent with communication and kept us updated the entire time. It was obvious from the videos that YoYo and Zoe were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He even made sure Zoe got her medication, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Conner again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!

Veronica is absolutely incredible! She took such wonderful care of Tasha and truly went above and beyond. When Tasha was feeling a bit down and lost her appetite, Veronica didn't just ignore it—she actually went out and bought special food to encourage her to eat and spent extra time cheering her up. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the happiness and health of the pups she watches. Tasha came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Veronica to anyone!

Diana was wonderful. She accepted the littles last minute when my vet tech referred her for senior care after a medical boarding when my work trip was unexpectedly extended. She provided a calm stable environment for my senior blind/deaf Yorkie and administered his medication effectively. Her photos showed both dogs happy and cared for and my Maltipoo probably would have preferred to stay with Diana when I picked them up! I highly recommend her, especially if your dog has special needs as she is caring and compassionate.

This was Milo’s second stay with Jullien, and he once again provided excellent care for him. Jullien kept us updated every day and sent us pics of Milo’s adventures, and he was once again very accommodating when our flight was delayed. We are so happy that we found Jullien. It’s so reassuring to know that your pet will be comfortable and happy while you’re away. +++++++++

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!!!

FAQs for Boarding - Maplewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Maplewood on Rover is $40.24 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,842 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Maplewood. 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 Maplewood 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 Maplewood 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 Maplewood 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 Maplewood.

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 Maplewood 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.
