“Stan and Barbara were wonderful! Our dog felt comfortable right away and we could see how happy he was in all the pictures they sent us. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Cooper with them again. We are very grateful we found them.”
“Gail took great care of sully while we were away. She is very caring and our dog seemed to feel very comfortable and relaxed in her home. She is very responsive and provides good updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying if sully was doing ok.”
“Bydette and her family are the best dog sitters. She sends daily videos which brings so much peace of mind. She is great with timely communication. Ginger loves spending time with her kids and we always know she is in good hands with them. Highly recommend!”
“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”
“Dalton & Leia were great! Our dog was anxious staying somewhere new and they did a great job making him feel comfortable. Provided updates and videos. Definitely recommend!!”
“I found her... a GENUINE. CARING. LOVING DOG SITTER! Diana is literally a one in a million gem. Not only did she very kindly accommodate my last minute request - She took such good care of my baby Koko and sent me so many pictures and videos. She was so good with Koko that koko wasn't "anxious" to see me or desperate to leave. Honestly... koko could have stayed with Diana and her family for much longer had the choice been hers lol. It alleviates so much stress when you KNOW your dog is truly so well taken care of and loved on when you're away. I had that feeling with Diana. You'll be SO LUCKY to have her as your sitter. All her dogs are so kind and sweet and well behaved. You wont regret having your dog stay with her.”
“Jillian and her family were great. It started with a welcoming meet and greet, followed by over a week long visit of kindness and care for our Marley. Pictures and videos were sent which gave us joy seeing him. Our Marley seamed very happy. It was like home away from home. Thank you to Jillian and her family! I will definitely use them again to care for our Marley.”
“Eunice took excellent care of Cappy during the three days we were away! She kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell she read my notes about Cappy’s care. Cappy also had a wonderful time with Eunice’s family and her dog, Pincky! I will definitely reach out to her again when I need someone to take care of Cappy in the future!”
“We left our pup with Joe, Joanne, and family for a week. They provided us with frequent updates/pictures and gave Violet lots of love and snuggles. We would 100% use them again in the future.”
“John was very tentative to our dog . We loved his positive energy . We can tell he's a true animal lover . He was so easy going and flexible when we had to change our drop off off time last minute . Love how him and his son made our dog feel loved :) Photos were adorable of her he sent ! Thanks so much :)”

I definitely RECOMMEND booking Caroline she was amazing she sends plenty of updates and photos. My Hart had an awesome time. Thank you Caroline you are the best.❤️❤️👏🏽👏🏽”
“Todd was awesome watching out dog! He took her on plenty of walks and spent a lot of time playing with her. He was great about staying in contact and sending updates, and was always very responsive. It was clear that our dog was well taken care of while we were away. I would definitely book with Todd again and highly recommend him!”
“Jen was super flexible on drop-off & pick up times & extended schedule. She was proactive in sending photos of my dog from walks & generous in using extra dog booties on my dogs paws to keep him cleaner. Last minute I had some probiotics & med to give my dog & she was ok with that too! I would definitely be confortable leaving my fur baby with Jen & highly recommend her.”

Amy sent daily updates and photos which we were so grateful for, and we love that she and her family treated Stanley like he was their own. We will absolutely be rebooking Amy again :)”
“Trista and Bill were wonderful. Not only did they care for 1 year old pup Maggie (who suffers from epilepsy) while I was away, they also took the time to help train and socialize her with other dogs which was above and beyond my expectations. Maggie had a wonderful week running around playing with other dogs and even made a surprising friend with a dog that is usually timid. Maggie seems to bring out the puppy in him as he brought out the fun playful side of her. I received pictures and updates all week long. Very appreciative to them for taking such good care of her and looking forward to playdates with our new doggy friend”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Morris Plains
Todd was absolutely wonderful with our golden retriever and took such great care of him during the five days we were away. It was clear that he treated our pup with genuine love, kindness, and attention, which meant so much to us. Leaving your dog in someone else’s care is never easy, but Todd made the entire experience feel comfortable and stress-free. Our dog requires medication, so finding someone responsible and trustworthy is especially important to us. Todd handled everything without any issues and gave us complete confidence and peace of mind while we were away. We are incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family. Thank you, Todd, for taking such great care of our boy!
Diane was absolutely amazing with our two dogs Debra and Dexter. She treated them like they were her own. She went out of her way to make sure the dogs were comfy and well taken care of. She is a true animal lover and gave me great advice on what to feed the pups. I highly recommend Diane for dog sitting.
Michele was wonderful with our hound mix, Wendy. We were apprehensive as we had never used a pet sitter before, especially since we were going to be away for two weeks. Wendy could be a handful, but we were kept informed about her days with numerous reports and pictures. It really seemed like our Wendy had her own little vacation! We would definitely use Michele again and would recommend her to others!
Audrey was the best sitter we could’ve asked for. I got stuck on vacation due to cancelled flights for 3 extra days, and Audrey allowed me to extend my dog’s stay with her with no issue at all. When I finally picked my dog up he was very happy/comfortable and I could tell he was taken care of. I would highly recommend her service to anyone!
Riti was absolutely wonderful! She watched our girl, Lady, for a few days and it was a great experience from start to finish. Riti was super communicative leading up to and during the stay, sending tons of photos, which I really appreciated. Riti took care to follow the long list of care instructions I left with her as well. I would highly recommend Riti, and I will definitely be using her again in the near future! 💖🐶
Alka is my pup’s and my new favorite person! I am so thankful I found someone I trust to take care of my Yorkie, Clover. As the owner of a recently adopted 8 year old Yorkie with a few health issues , leaving him with someone new was stressful. Alka immediately put my mind at ease. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. He looked so happy, relaxed, and genuinely loved❤️. I couldn’t recommend Alka more highly.
Mike did an outstanding job caring for our two Goldendoodles while we were away. From the start, he was communicative, professional, and clearly cared about making sure our dogs were comfortable and happy. He followed their routine closely, paid attention to all of their needs, and kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and plenty of pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Most importantly, our dogs had an amazing time with him. It was obvious from the updates and from how happy and relaxed they were when we got home that they were well cared for and genuinely enjoyed their stay. We are incredibly grateful for the excellent care Mike provided and would not hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitter.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Morris Plains is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $72 per night.

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 Morris Plains 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 Morris Plains home-away-from-home, 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 Morris Plains.
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 Morris Plains 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 , 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 .
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.
