“Brineydi took perfect care of our dog! She was very thorough in our initial meet and greet to make sure she knew everything needed to take care of him over the extended weekend. She was very responsive through the stay and sent us tons of pictures and updates. Our dog was very happy to stay with her. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be asking her to take care of our dog again in the future!”
“Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰”
“Kelsey and Conor took great care of Rosie! Kelsey was so nice to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Her dogs were so friendly and greeted Rosie so kindly right away! I would definitely book with Kelsey and Conor again. They made me feel like my dog was one of their own!”
“Cindy was very flexible with scheduling and allowing Duke to have a meet and greet prior to our scheduled boarding. Cindy also shared photos and videos during the stay.”
“Hands down, Christina was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She was friendly during our meet and greet and was prepared for all of my questions, especially regarding Toby’s sensitivity with small kids and some men. I never had any doubt that Toby was receiving expert and loving care with her, and I definitely hope to book with her again!!”
“Kristina was incredible! It was my first time booking a boarding session with Rover and she was so easy to work with sent me plenty of detailed updates about her fun weekend with Watson. She helped to make everything go smoothly! Thank you!!”
“Bean loved Kerry and so did I! She sent me the sweetest updates and was flexible with me when I had unforeseen circumstances and needed to adjust pickup timing. She was also patient with bean when she became fussy, ‘spicy bean’ can be a handful so I really appreciated that!”
“Hali & her family are the best sitters we have ever booked with Rover. We will continue to use them for any and all future trips, if you are looking for someone to take amazing care of your fur babies she is who you want to book with. My boys get so excited to go there and even know the route to her house 😂 as soon as we get close they are ready to jump out to have fun with her and her family. We appreciate you and cannot thank you enough for the exceptional care you give to my boys. ❤️”
“My pups were well taken care of. They warmed up very nicely to another home. Artesha took my worries away of them staying in another home without us. I would gladly use her services again!”
“Natalie was a great host — super communicative and sent several pics and updates for our pup’s overnight stay. Her dog, Luna, is also super friendly and great with guests. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“We were so glad that we booked with Rhea! She sent updates, photos or short videos each day, and she didn't hesitate to write to us with questions. She has a clean apartment, too, and she clearly enjoyed taking care of our dog! In addition, her dog is also a sweet guy. We appreciate that she doesn't take too many dogs at one time. We definitely recommend her!!”
“Anjaliben was an excellent host for my fur babies Bear and Chubbs. From our first meeting I knew that I made the right decision with how welcoming she was. Bear and Chubbs were calm themselves for being with someone besides our family. This was a first time boarding experience for them and I. Medication was also given without any problems. I would highly recommend Anjaliben for her services that she provides. Bear and Chubbs have found their second home for vacations away from home.”
“This is the first time I have left Bella for this long of a time. Nick did a very good job with watching Bella. She returned home happy and content. Nick also sent daily updates and photos of Bella. Great job!, I will definitely be requesting you again.”
“I love going to Sheree to care for my dog. She is patient and very loving with my pup. She was even kind enough to drop my girl off to me when we were unable to pick her up on time. I can't recommend Sheree enough”
“Zyiana is an excellent sitter. Sent daily updates and pictures of my dog. He seemed very happy during his stay. I highly recommend and will book again!”
“Eric took such great care of Kobe. He was so responsive, accommodating to Kobe’s needs, and was so gracious when traffic delayed our pick up. We will definitely be booking Eric again”
“Zoey had another great vacation with David and Phyllis! We are very grateful for the love and great care they gave her, and they will be our first choice for the future. To be honest, I think Zoey is a little sad to be home and misses them!!”
“Hilary and her husband were awesome and my dog couldn’t have had a better time. I got plenty of updates and he was so happy when I picked him up, would have them watch him again anytime”
“Derek was absolutely amazing! He watched our Frenchie for a long weekend. We wish he lived closer because we would hire him all of the time. His communication was the best before during and afterwards. We felt comfortable and knew Homer was getting such great love! I don’t think Homer wanted to leave he had the best time. I wish we could give more than 5 stars!”

Tania is the Gold standard for doggy sitters! My dog Enrique absolutely loves her! We were having a hard time finding the right dog sitter for him on this app - no one has been as attentive, caring and loving towards Enrique as Tania! I first let him stay over for 2 nights while I was out of town. I received lots of pictures, has the option to video call, and when I came back he was happy! The next time I brought him over to stay with Tania, this time for a week, he was excited to spend time with her. As soon as he saw her he started running to her and was pulling me on the leash 😆. I received lots of updates and pictures, and she kept him safe during the heat wave and the rainy weather. She gave him baths, carried him up and down the stairs and even gave him a toy to take home! She is the Best Ever!!!! I am so glad I found her for my doggy 🤩
Christina was such a wonderful, trusted person to leave my dog, Izzy, with after I had not taken a trip in quite a while. She offered clear communication and provided plenty of updates with photos on how Izzy was doing. It was also nice to have met with her prior to the dates I would be away. In that time, Christina really asked a ton of questions that made me feel at ease. I would gladly recommend her and go to her again if needed for future dogsitting or walking :)
Our dogs had an amazing time with Hendry! He was very patient with our more nervous pup, even when the super hot weather made it all the more challenging to get some of his energy out — Hendry was patient, kind, and sent updates every step of the way. Both dogs settled in well, and that’s a testament to Hendry’s patience and care for them. We would absolutely rebook in the future!
Cosmo had a wonderful stay! It was clear he was well cared for and had so much fun during his three nights there. He loved playing with the other dogs, and the large, spacious yard gave him plenty of room to run around every day. Brineydi sent daily updates with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. By the time I picked him up, he almost seemed sad to leave all his new friends! couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
So happy I found this website and Jayanna! She did an amazing job and made my dog feel comfortable, even though she was very nervous around the other dogs at first. Jayanna was patient and caring. She sent us photos and videos throughout the stay without us even having to ask, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating, especially since our booking request was made only two hours in advance. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We couldn’t be happier with the care Jonathan gave our dog while we were away for five days! From the start, he was reliable and communicative. During our trip, our dog had some unexpected tummy troubles, and Jonathan went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. He kept us updated, handled everything with such kindness and patience, and truly treated our dog like his own. He even sent us home with helpful items and advice to keep our pup feeling better—such a thoughtful touch that really shows how much he cares. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely trust Jonathan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and dependable dog sitter!
We couldn't be happier with the care Rob and his partner provided. They were so sweet with our new puppy, and both our dogs came home happy and well-rested. They are very communicative and clearly enjoy every minute they spend with the dogs. It is not simply a job for them. Highly recommended!
This was my second time booking with Sierra, during drop off Dior was so excited to see her which tells me she enjoys going to Sierra’s for boarding. Sierra takes very good care of Dior, she is very caring,thoughtful and loving to Dior. She sends daily updates and has great communication! Thank you Sierra for loving Dior like your own baby!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Merchantville on Rover is $44.4 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 3,363 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Merchantville. 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.
94% of Merchantville 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 Merchantville 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 Merchantville 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 Merchantville.
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 Merchantville 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.
