“Thana and Subangi took wonderful care of my dog and sent lots of pictures, which made me feel completely at ease and showed how happy and comfortable my pup was. It was also clear that the other dogs in their care were friendly and well looked after. I have already happily booked again.”
“Kate was fantastic. She very quickly answered my request and fit me in with just two hours notice. She was so loving with my dog, and she took pictures many times. And her two young children were simply wonderful, also. I could tell at the time, in the pictures, how happy they were making Frances. I will definitely ask her to work with Frances next time I come up.”
“At first I was nervous leaving my puppy with a sitter. Pam and her family is soo amazing. My dog loves going there and always has fun. Pam sends pictures,videos, and always answers questions I ask her throughout the day about my dog which I appreciate. I can trust to leave my dog with her and have peace of mind knowing that he is taken care of. Thank you soo much for all your kindness and love you give to my fur baby!”
“Whitney & Michael were fantastic even with changes to the booking and unforeseen circumstances with my work day. They were extremely accommodating, communicated well and were thoughtful/understanding. They sent photos of Isla and she had a great stay. I will book with them in the near future!”
“This was a last minute booking for Layla and I was excited to see Layla refusing to go home at the end. Tanvi is an excellent host and I'll definitely be a repeat customer pretty soon!”
About: My family had many pets growing up so I have been around animals all my life. Over the past few years, I have cared for many animals with different personalities and different needs. I have experience administering pills and injecting insulin for cats. I also have experience crate training and potty training dogs. I am happy to come care for your pet at your home or have your pet stay with me (I have a cat but she is very friendly with other animals). I have a very flexible work schedule and typically work from home at least 3 days a week so I am certainly available during the week. I will make sure your pet is safe and happy while you’re away and give them all the love and attention they need. I am quite flexible with hours and can come care for your pet at the times that work best for you, your pet, and your schedule.
“Lenny was super communicative through out my pet stay. Also very accommodating extending the schedule. I would definitely recommend Lenny without a blink! Thanks again.”
“Jiyao and Yiting take great care of my pup! They are patient and knowledgeable about animals and how to best care for them. My girl came home happy and I had great peace of mind! They communicate well and are kind. I highly recommend them!”
“Darya provided daycare for Watson for a week. Watson, who can sometimes have separation anxiety, was excited to see Darya every morning. Their dog Coco is a very nice dog and I was happy Watson would have a friend.”
About: I'm a very caring animal lover and have been house and dog sitting for years. I've had my dog since she was a puppy so I have the experience to care for dogs of all ages. My dog is extremely active so I dont have any problem keeping up with pets of any activity level. I've been to training with my dog and am able to use the skills I've learned with my dog to any pet. I've dog sat for multiple dogs at once with different health issues and dietary restrictions. I'm very meticulous when it comes to your pet's health including medication regimens and special dietary needs. I treat all animals as if they were my own. My main goal while caring for your pet is to keep your pet safe, happy and healthy. I work Mon-Fri 9-5pm so I only pet sit on the weekends to ensure your furry baby gets all the walks, playtime and attention they deserve. My goal is to provide your pet with the same enviroment they would recieve at home. We are away from main roads and have access to a fenced dog park.
“Anna and Zilin took Mooncake in on last minute notice and we couldn’t be more thankful! Mooncake had a great time and we would love for them to dog sit her again :)”
“My pet had an awesome time at Karen’s . Super flexible with drop off time and Karen helped introducing my pet to dog park and that was real highlight of the stay! Thanks a ton for going out of your way. And lastly Karen was very accommodative with late pickup .”
“Joanna is great. She asked the right questions and was very responsive whenever I asked her one. She kept sending pictures and videos during the stay. Our dog, Luna, liked her and went back to her even after I was there to pick her up. It gives you such a peace of mind when you know someone as caring is watching your pet. We plan to use her again.”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life, especially dogs. My family has always loved and cared for them deeply, and being around dogs has always felt natural to me. I carry that same love in my heart, every dog deserves kindness, respect, and a life full of love. They give nothing but adoration, and I want to reflect that back to them. What I enjoy most is seeing each dog’s unique personality and getting to connect with them in their own special way. Spending time with dogs is always exciting, comforting, and genuinely one of my favorite things to do. I have online classes from 6–9 p.m., so I have plenty of time during the day and on weekends to care for your pets! Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to adjust to their routine. Your pets will always get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. My home is calm, safe, and full of love for animals. I always take time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so they feel relaxed and cared for. I’m experienced with senior pets and medications, and I make sure every animal, whether shy or social, feels secure, respected, and happy in my care.
About: Sorry due to rover taking a 20% fee now, I have to raise my prices. It was 10% before. I love animals, I’ve owned animals my whole life, I have two pet bunnies. (They live in my garage, not house, other animals don't have access) I also own a beagle, he’s 12 . He’s very friendly and loves other dogs, specially people, he's friendly with cats. I volunteer at animal shelters and I'm going for my vet technician degree. . I take my dog out in the morning for a walk, he gets many walks through out the day, I have a flexible job where I chose my own hours / schedule but during those hours I choose I'm on call and might have to leave, usually always have one other person home but if your dog cannot be left alone I can fix my work schedule to work with you. I will love your pet like my own until you come back home. If your pet is staying at my house, we have a big back yard that has a lead for your dog, also a nice quiet street I live on for walks. my dog will be around your pet so please also have a friendly pet. Besides that, daily feeding, daily pets&love, brushing, exercise, playtime. Your pets will get all of that.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Monmouth Junction
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,741 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Monmouth Junction. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Monmouth Junction commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,741 sitters in Monmouth Junction, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
