“This was Milo's first time away from home so I was worried. Brineydi gave me daily updates, photos, and even a video of how Milo was doing and it was clear he was having fun. I'll definitely book with her again!”
“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!”
“I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitter and would highly recommend them. They took excellent care of my dog, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure all of my pet’s needs were met. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring and responsible hands. My dog came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. I will definitely be using their services again in the future!”
“Christina is absolutely wonderful with our 2 year old pup. She is very accommodating of our instructions for his meals and gives frequent walks which is great for our boy! Christina is also an excellent communicator and responds quickly. Highly recommend, and planning on Roonie getting another vacation with Christina the next time we are in need of a sitter!”
“Zyiana was a GREAT caretaker for my beagle. This was my first time leaving spot with a sitter and she made it such an easy and comforting experience. She kept spot for 3 nights and gave consistent updates and photos about my dog, she was very attentive and caring, didn’t even leave out the cuddles/snuggles. She was also very detail oriented and followed instructions given. I highly recommend and would absolutely book 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!!”

“I loved using Haley as my pet sitter and will continue to do so ! It was my first time using Rover and she made the experience perfect as can be, she sent pictures all throughout the day of my three cats, very communicative, and was absolutely the sweetest. I am very pleased with her pet services !”

“Eric and Raz are our favorite dog sitters. They clearly love and care about our dog and we always feel 100% confident that she is well cared for with them. They give her lots of cuddles and have a good sense of her needs. It’s always a pleasure.”
“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.”
“Amazing sitter. She took such good care of my older dog over the holidays and kept me updated on how he was doing. If I wasn't moving across the country I would definitely book Cindy 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!!”
“Derek was fantastic. Super communicative and it was clear that he truly loved spending time with our pup. That means the world to us. We will definitely book him again!!”

“I highly recommend David and Phyllis! They’re great people and really love dogs. We are so grateful to have them watch our dog, Toby!! Toby love’s going to their house which gives us a lot of piece of mind.”
“We can’t express how amazing Ginger is! Our pups are both rescues and have their own little quirks and needs. Our Margo is very anxious and attentive, and both pups aren’t the best walkers. Though, Ginger was so incredibly amazing with making sure they were comfortable and worked with them on their tendencies while taking them on wonderful long walks. She was so communicative, sharing pictures and updates throughout the stay, which meant the world to us so we knew how things were going. We can’t thank Ginger enough for how caring, friendly, and active she was with our pups!”
“My dog had a lovely time with Mitchell, who was super communicative and sent update photo every day. Marsha (Mitchell's dog) is sweet and was friendly to my dog when they met!”

Chelsea allowed my very anxious dog to lay with her and on her, which provided so much comfort knowing we rarely leave our dog. Chelsea allowed us to walk her back yard and space so we could see where Abby would be spending her time. She was flexible with drop off and pick up and provided pictures when we checked in on Abby.
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!
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.
