“Kevin offered to do a meet & greet in a short notice. He was very nice & shared pics with an update! Loved his location which was very close to my home. This is my 2nd time using rover.com. It was a great experience.”
“Koda had a great time!!! I felt confident that he was in good hands and he had a great time playing with Aleja and her family (both human and furry). He was one tired puppey when he came home. (This is a very good this since he is sooooo energetic it is hard to make sure he gets enough excited to wear him out). I totally recommend Aleja and would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“Gabriela did an amazing job taking care of our Diesel for 4 days while we were on vacation. She was caring, responsible, and made sure Diesel was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Diesel and treated him like her own. We came back to a happy and well-cared-for dog! I highly recommend Gabriela to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dependable dog sitter. We would definitely have her take care of Diesel again! ❤️🐾”
“Yanni took very good care of my girl! She was very communicative and always sent me photos which put me at ease, especially because my dog appeared to be happy or relaxed in every photo. I would certainly rebook again, Yanni was very trustworthy!”
“Ryan and the rest of his family took incredible care of our 5 month old puppy while we were out of town. From the first message, we could instantly tell Ryan was going to be a fantastic sitter. Communication and care were top notch, and we were surprised every night with a highlight reel from their activities of the day so we never felt out of the loop with the adventures they had gotten into. Before the visit was over, we had already rebooked him for another upcoming stay. Would highly recommend trusting Ryan with your fur babies, thank you so much!”
“June and her family are amazing! They took such good care of my pup. Initially, I was a little cautious because my pup is a lil nervous around other dogs. After my pup’s stay - he was able to warm up to other dogs. June sent me frequent pics and updates throughout Ritz’s stay. I definitely felt comfortable and I’m super grateful to her and her family. Thank you!!!”
“Sriram and Rekha took great care of our Ruthie. They sent lots of pictures and gave updates through our her stay. Ruthie has stayed other places before but I've never seen her settle in or be more comfortable anywhere else. We will definitely work with Sriram and Rekha again!”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”

First time leaving our boy Baxter with Trista. We were going away for a week and needed to know he was taken care of. Trista sent us a daily picture of Bax while he was outside in her large fenced in yard. Could have used a little more communication, but, for first time stay, we were pleased. Baxter, who doesn’t stay behind too often, was content when we picked him up and we could tell he enjoyed his stay. Would have Trista watch Bax again. Thank you
Justin was an absolute great sitter. My pups were so happy with him. My Yorkie totally loved him as he would often nap on his lap (photos where taken). Justin fed them well, took them in happy walks, and had one on one time with them. As mentioned before he would send pictures of them, whether it was with a silly hat or napping, it helped us be less worried for our pups. He is really sweet and I would definitely recommend his services.

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 Mount Arlington 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 Mount Arlington 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 Mount Arlington.
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 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.

You and your Mount Arlington 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.
