“I am so grateful to have found Samantha! My recently adopted dog, Brownie, has some anxiety around new people and in new places. Samantha went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Her apartment is so clean and cozy and truly a dog's paradise. Her dog, Cocoa, was so friendly and welcoming to Brownie. We got frequent updates during his stay and Samantha is super quick to respond. She is also very flexible around pick up and drop off. I truly cannot thank her enough for watching our sweet boy and making not only him but also our whole family feel comfortable while we are away by knowing that he is safe and happy!! Brownie didn't want to come home with me when I went to pick up because he was too busy playing with all the fun toys! He will be back soon! Thank you again, Samantha.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my special-needs pup, Dottie, for 8 years. She’s on a strict diet and takes meds too, so I’m good with following precise instructions. I have a loving and serene home where Dottie and I can welcome your pup. I work from home on Fridays, so I am available for boarding for long weekends. We could coordinate a Thursday evening drop-off if need be. On the weekends, I go to a pilates class and run errands, but am otherwise around as company for the dogs. My yard is only partially fenced, so I will be taking the dogs on leashed walks. Dottie sleeps in bed with me, so it’s okay if your pup needs to as well. If your dog is crate-trained, that is okay too.
“Rachel took great care of our 15 year old terrier mix Cookie. She sent photos and messages to us everyday we were away. She followed all our directions and I felt relaxed and at ease knowing Cookie was happy. How do I know? Rachel reported that Cookie didn’t want her to stop rubbing her belly. Cookie does not let most people rub her belly!! That said it all!”
“Meena & her husband took very good care of our 8 month old pup. She was updating us with messages and pictures throughout the day and went out of her way to care for him. We were at peace of mind seeing the pictures & updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend her!”
“My hubby is working in the area. I flew in from GA to visit him, so that we could drive to Canada to celebrate our 10th anniversary. He travels with our dog and we needed a safe home away from home while we travel. Ivelisse was great with our fur baby! Love had just been diagnosed with a UTI and she was very attentive, even giving us helpful recommendations on how to prevent further ones. She sent regular updates and we could tell that Love enjoyed the stay as well. We are thankful that Ivelisse was able to accommodate us on such short notice. Thanks for treating our dog like family! We definitely recommend her and would use her again!”
“Angela took care of my two dogs, Kylo and Loki. It is my first time using this app and the services. She went above my expectations. She sends me pictures and updates about them. She is also very responsive and flexible. Thank you.”
“Camila and Omar were amazing. They were responsive and flexible for the last minute request. They were very communicative and loving to Elmer. With a big back yard Elmer left their home happy and tired. Thank you.”
“I highly recommend Anish and Aaheli for anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. From the time of booking and throughout the stay, Anish was prompt with his responses, provided timely updates and photos, keeping me fully informed and at ease while I was away. My pet instantly felt comfortable and welcomed in their. It was clear from the time we spoke, dropped of Brady and picked him up; they go above and beyond to create a safe, loving environment. I truly appreciated the attention to detail, open communication, and thoughtful approach to pet care. I will definitely trust Anish and Aaheli with my pet again!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Emaunal and Jennifer were amazing! Frost had a blast and came home tired and happy. Emaunal and Jennifer sent adorable updates and pics, and even gave Frost his dinner and 🐾👍. Would definitely recommend! 🐶💕 Looking forward to sending Frost there more in the future. Thank you”
“Sam is truly was an angel on earth when we left our mini golden doodle Veer with her for 4 days. She was so loving and took care of Veer like her own. She asked questions, which eased our tensions, and sent us daily pictures of Veer doing a new kind of activity. Her daughter is so adorable and lovely and played with veer so well as well. We couldn’t have found a better person to take care of Veer and we will DEFINITELY be rebooking sam in the future. If I could give her 100 stars, even that would not be enough! <3”
“We had never left Jake with a sitter so we were a little bit nervous. But at the moment we met Lauren and saw all her effort to make Jake feel welcome, we felt confident that he was in good hands. She kept me posted and sent pictures of him and he was very happy to be with Lauren. 100% recommended!!! I’m happy we found Lauren!”
“Sarah took wonderful care of our dog Duncan! I cant say enough about how well Sarah and her family cared for our dog when we were away! She was terrific with communication before and during our booking for pet sitting. She sent us great pictures of Duncan while we were on vacation, making sure we knew he was being well cared for. I would definitely book with Sarah again without hesitation. Everything went smoothly with the entire booking process!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Jolanta and her family are the best! Our pup Lulu felt very comfortable right away and she was in good spirits when we picked her up after ten days away. We could tell she got a lot of love and attention. Jolanta’s very friendly and great with providing photo and video updates. Also very safety minded. Would highly recommend!!”
“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”
“Carly and her family were attentive foster parents for our two higher-maintenance rescue pups. Easy initial meeting, great home with expansive backyard for the dogs to play, friendly family dog. Responsive to messages and shared great photos while we were away. Will use them again!”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter for Shibu (a Shih-Tsu) as we took our 3 week vacation. We couldn't be happier with how well Kimberly took care of her. Kim sent us regular pics and Shibu looked always active and happy, so we knew she was being well cared for. she has a fenced in backyard which is a major plus. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I've been a dog owner and animal lover my entire life, both as a child and as an adult. Over the years, I've cared for several dogs of different breeds, each with their own unique personalities and needs. Spending time with dogs brings me so much joy, whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship and care. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I truly can't imagine a world without them. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I also have fostered several litters of puppies, and administered medications with ease. I work out of the home but I am able to drop in to play and let dogs out everyday around lunch. Maximum 3 hours in crate at a time. I treat each dog like a family member. I will make sure to update you daily on how they are doing! Pictures are so important!
“I'm delighted to be Amber's first review, as this sit was magnificent!! Amber and her family came through for me for a last-minute, same-day holiday (4th of July) booking, and they were great from start to finish! Very friendly, helpful, responsive, and flexible and seemed to attend well to my Sienna -- following my various tips and even going lengths to ensure, with her being an older dog, that she wouldn't be out in the heat during walks for too long and was protected by the outside fireworks that first night! Amber also shared some text and picture updates throughout the stay, and her and her husband for were very reassuring both during drop-off and pickup regarding Sienna's care. They were so great that I ended up extending the sit to an extra day, originally scheduled for just one, and they were very accommodating in my doing so. Sienna seemed to like them well, and I think they liked her -- I definitely would book again whenever we're back in this area again!!”

We were so happy to meet Karly and her wonderful family! They took exceptional care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay by sending us regular photos and videos. It was obvious from every update that our dog was incredibly happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Karly and her family are kind, responsible, and truly love animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such great hands. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters!

We definitely recommend her and would use her again!
Sam is amazing! Our dog has the best time at her house, and we can always tell she is so well cared for and truly treated like part of the family. We get wonderful pictures every day showing our dog happy, exercised, and loved, which gives us so much confidence and peace of mind while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found Sam - I’m sure our dog Sophie is too!
Angela has been great in taking care of my Bichon. She has been kind and nice to make my dog very comfortable and my dog come home very happy been able to playing with other small dog. She gives my dog the extra diet requests that makes my dog feel comfortable as if at home. She has my trust in taking care of my Doodle.
On a last minute request, Jhonny took care of both my dog and my mom’s dog. He did not require a meet and greet which was extremely helpful as we were kind of in a bind. Ultimately, Jhonny came across as genuinely caring about the animals, and we couldn’t be happier with how our pups came home. It was like they never left. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing experience with Andrea! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog, and it was clear from the start that he felt comfortable and happy with her. She and her family treated him like he was truly part of the crew, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent pictures throughout the day, and in every single one he looked relaxed, loved, and having a great time. I couldn't have asked for better care. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in the area and can't wait to have my dog stay with her again! Thanks, Andrea!!! 🫶
We are SO happy that we found Abby to watch our sweet senior fur baby over a long weekend. Abby was very attentive to our instructions and sent lots of updates every day, which really put us at ease leaving our dog with a new person. Our dog can be a bit timid but she warmed right up to Abby right away — dogs really are an excellent judge of character! Abby was also very flexible when we were facing some unexpected flight delays coming back to town. I highly recommend her and we are looking forward to rebooking with her!
Lauren did a wonderful job with Kobe. He was a rescue as has some social problems. She took such great care of him. She was nice enough to watch him at our house which was a lot to ask of her especially since we needed her for 10 hours. I would recommend Lauren highly and I know if ever I need her again I would hire her. Thanks Lauren for your help.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mercerville on Rover is $61.05 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 2,329 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mercerville. 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.
93% of Mercerville 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 Mercerville 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 Mercerville 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 Mercerville.
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 Mercerville 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.
