“My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!”
“Isbath was great with my dog. Precious is highly skittish and tends to have a hard time adapting to new environments, but she was fantastic with Isbath. She ate, played, walked and had no problem sleeping through the night while in her care. I got numerous updates, pictures, and videos, of my dog being her relaxed and playful self. She always looked so happy and content. Would highly recommend Isbath and will most definitely be using her again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my little one!”
“Julissa and her sister took great care of sparky. He came up tired and had a great time playing with them. They also sent pictures of him. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Excellent care! Jacquelyn and Bryan were super attentive and loving to my Ollie girl. They sent pictures and updates throughout and I felt comfortable for the entirety of the stay that she was in good hands. Highly recommend :)”
“Alice and her family were awesome with our beagle, Buster! He had a great time and clearly enjoyed spending the long weekend. We will definitely reach out again in the future when we need a rover for Buster!”
“I can't say enough good things about Anoti! She and her family welcomed Dante with open arms and really made him feel at home. Dante is very high-energy, and Anoti accommodated nicely with plenty of long walks. I could see from the photos how much fun Dante was having and how much love he was getting. I would definitely seek out Anoti for our future boarding needs!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Jaime provided for our dog, Maggie! This was Maggie’s first time away from home, and since she is very fearful outside of her usual surroundings, we were nervous about how she would adjust. Jaime was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make sure Maggie felt safe and comfortable. She truly cared about Maggie’s well-being, helping her acclimate to a new environment with both people and pets. It was amazing to see Maggie grow to trust Jaime enough to sit and even sleep near her! We are so grateful for Jaime’s kindness and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and attentive pet sitter.”
“Alex and her husband were wonderful and truly cared about Peanut, it was his first time away for a week (not sure who was more nervous - me or peanut) but they kept me posted with his daily activities and even sent pictures. I highly recommend Alex and look forward to booking with them again...”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood. To me, they’re not just pets, but beloved family members and lifelong friends. I’ve always had a special love for small, fluffy dogs and enjoy keeping them looking their best. This passion led me to become a professionally trained dog groomer. My training and hands-on experience have helped me understand the unique needs of dogs of different breeds and ages. I share my home with my sweet, friendly 11-year-old Maltese, who loves companionship. We’d love to welcome a gentle, friendly little guest into our home! I only board one small guest dog at a time, so each dog receives plenty of individual attention, affection, and personalized care. From daily routines and playtime to grooming and special care needs, I’ll treat your dog like my own family, providing a safe, peaceful, and loving home while you’re away. Basic bathing is available for an additional $35 during boarding. Full grooming services, including haircuts and styling, are available upon request at a separate rate. I work part-time as a professional dog groomer, and my workplace is very close to home. This gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pup. I enjoy spending time at home with my Maltese, and I only board one small dog at a time to ensure each guest receives personalized attention, companionship, playtime, and loving care. My home is located in a beautiful, quiet residential community with an open yard and plenty of green spaces for daily walks. There’s also a dog park and scenic walking trails nearby, perfect for enjoying the outdoors when the weather is nice. Dogs are always kept safely leashed during outdoor walks. I only welcome one small dog at a time, allowing me to provide personalized attention in a peaceful, clean, and comfortable home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and make sure every guest feels safe, relaxed, and loved throughout their stay. I only accept fully house-trained dogs.
“As always, Whitney and Michael took the best care of our two doggies! The dogs are comfortable with them, and they keep us updated along the way. Their kids also do great with the dogs, and their own doggies get along well with ours. We will continue to use Whitney and Michael for future stays. Don’t hesitate to try them out!”
“Couldn’t be happier with the care Bean received while we were away! Bean is a senior dog who requires daily medications and a little extra attention, and Lisa took care of her with so much compassion and professionalism. She kept me updated every day, which gave me total peace of mind while we were on vacation. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!”
“Kajal has been amazing as a dog sitter for Honey. It's almost become his second home. She is excellent with her communication and updates. Kajal is very accommodative and reliable. I highly recommend her services. Honey loves his stay here.”
“Jiyao and Yiting were amazing with Daisy! They sent us adorable photos and videos throughout her stay, which made us feel so connected. Daisy came home with a huge smile, still in her playful, happy mode. We could tell she had a blast—highly recommend these wonderful hosts! We’ll definitely book again!”
“It was Duke’s first stay with Claudia. He was excited at drop off, no stress, no anxiety. Claudia sent pictures of Duke being his normal self throughout the evening. Extra appreciation and thanks to Claudia for accommodating the request for late pickup.”
“Thana and Subangi took great care of my dog when we went away for a long weekend. He had the time of his life playing with their dog and the other dogs boarding with them. I got lots of photo updates, and he looked very happy in every photo! I will definitely book again.”
“Shannon was great at communicating and keeping us updated. We were running behind on drop off and did an early pick up and she was very flexible with our change in schedules. Thank you for all your help!”

Anny was amazing with Jack! Great communication, lots of pictures and videos, and very accommodating. She gave him his medication and even cooked him rice when he had an upset stomach. She truly went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. We would definitely book with her again!
Isbath and her family are so so so incredible. She's warm, welcoming, professional, and inquisitive. She checked in with multiple times a day and provided photos, which helped me feel even more at ease. I only wish I lived closer so I could use her as my go to sitter. I could tell my girl Sailor loved her visit, before putting her in the car she stopped and had the urge to run to their front steps and back inside to play. Couldn't recommend more.
As always, Karina and Terry have taken wonderful care of my dog, Dewey, for me. Dewey absolutely adores Karina and I never worry about how he's doing because Karina provides regular updates. I highly recommend Karina and Terry and I plan on using them whenver I'm going to be away ffrom home.
Highly recommend Nikki & Ricardo! Toby had the best time staying with her and loved having so much space to play in the big backyard. Getting daily photos and video updates meant the world to me while I was away. Toby came home happy and well-cared for—we’ll definitely be back! Thank you:)
Pearl loved her stay with Louie. She enjoyed having a large backyard to roam around, sniff and burn off energy in. I received pictures/videos every day and my pup looked extremely happy each and every time. Pearl will certainly be returning in the future for any extended periods of time away! Highly recommend.
Dilan was the best dog sitter I have ever hired. My dog was well taken care of. She exercised her twice a day and sent me videos and pictures while I was away. My dog appeared to be very happy…which made me very happy. I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care Dilan provided for my baby! Thank you!
Raheem was great! He is very friendly and laid-back, which is a great match for our dog, Coco, who gets overexcited very easily. From the start, he was prompt with communication and information. He scheduled a meet-and-greet and shared more about his experience taking care of dogs, While we were away, he kept us posted on how Coco was doing throughout the week. We had some travel delays on our return trip and he was able to accommodate some small changes in the pick-up time at the last minute. Coco was a happy girl when we picked her up and it was clear she had a good time. We'd definitely use Raheem again!
I truly appreciate Alex and the wonderful care she provided for my pups while I was away. She has watched my younger dog, Mila, before, and Mila is always happy and excited to see her. This time, Alex cared for both Mila and my 14-year-old Yorkie, and I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her hands. Knowing they were well cared for allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without any worries. I would gladly trust Alex with my dogs again.
. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soham took excellent care of Phoebe and treated her like his own. He sent regular updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Even in snowy and very cold weather, he made sure Phoebe got her walks and plenty of playtime, including her favorite game of fetch. Phoebe absolutely enjoyed Rizo’s company and she received so much love and attention throughout her stay. It truly felt like Phoebe had a vacation of her own! We are incredibly grateful to Soham and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Middlesex can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Middlesex 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 Middlesex.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Middlesex. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Middlesex 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
