“Trista was a huge help in watching our two pointers for the day. One of them is very anxious, and Trista was able to get him to relax and to enjoy his time at her house. Trista is very professional and communication throughout the day was very easy. I would definitely rebook in the future.”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I grew up with all kinds of animals in my homes and have had additional experience with birds, fish, chickens, hamsters, mice, snakes, geckos, bunnies, and others over my last 30 years. Though it hasn’t been my full time profession in years, I spent many years managing a boarding facility alongside an animal hospital, which remains to this day my absolute favorite job. I find no greater joy than helping ease the anxiety that the animal babies feel when they are away from the comfort of their own homes. I have successfully trained a number of puppies including large “bully breeds” and I especially enjoy helping rescues find comfort in new homes after questionable upbringings. Above all, my heart pours love and gratitude into animal babies because I believe they deserve the same unconditional love that they give to us humans. I work part time and make my own schedule. I am incredibly flexible and am used to a swing schedule where I can get up early or stay up late in order to accommodate the needs of my clients. I have a multiple acre wooded property. Though it is not entirely fenced in I am skilled at leash walking/training and my property backs up to miles of trails that are part of a wildlife refuge. I currently have a one year old female Beagle/Belgian Malinois mix who is crate trained but also does stay at home alone freely at this age with no incidents. She is incredible with other dogs and people, overall very sweet and friendly. I am willing to crate your pup if that is what you prefer, but am also ok with a free roaming pup. I work only on a free-lance basis and do all of my work based around my pet sitting, drop in, and walking schedule. So your animals are my number one priority! I have added a fence on my wooded property to accommodate pups that need some freedom from a leash to do their ‘business’ 😆 and of course my sweet, friendly, playful pup Rainy is always ready to wrestle, chase, or cuddle her new friends!
About: I have been taking care of pets since my first own pet, at around age five. Since then, my love for animals just grew and I can’t see my life without being around furry friends. I’ve been always helping family and friends to watch their pets when they are away for vacation so, I will love to host your pet in their new home away from home. I am a stay at home mom, so between the daily routine , I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet attention, love and playtime. I care for pets with love and respect. I always follow owners instructions and do my best to understand pet’s needs. I love to play with the pets and give them some love.
“We were in town while traveling and needed someone to watch our dog while we visited New York City. Ruby loved visiting with Marisol and her family! She took excellent care of her! We knew Ruby had fun because she was so excited to go back the second day! If we are ever in the area again, I would definitely call Marisol!”
About: We are a loving and lively household where we will snuggle and play fetch with your pup, take them to the dog park, and keep them happy and occupied. My husband and I have a very active goldendoodle, Bell, who is 9 years old. Neither of us remember a time when there wasn't a dog in the house growing up! We know that we are taking on no small task when we agree to be responsible for your furry friend. We will follow your instructions to a T and we realize that every doggo is their own unique individual with their own unique needs. We are pros when it comes to high-energy dogs with a mind of their own! I am a full-time parent of three and we have a dog of our own whom we are home with all day. Staying active with our doodle is an integral part of our daily routine and we would love to have even more walks, games of fetch, and tricks + treats to look forward to! We LOVE to love on your pet! In our home you can expect a minimum of two 20-minute walks a day, plus more upon request and some leash time in our back yard if they like to hang out and observe the world. We are big proponents of fetch and chase.
“David was amazing. We had a last minute outing planned that wasn't pup friendly. The night before David responded within minutes and offered to help out for a full 12 hours. It was the first time we were leaving our pup with anyone and he graciously agreed to meeting him the same night. The day of David sent updates without any request and was understand with pick up time (we we're a little late due to some traffic). Our pup was happy and well taken care of.”
“Jonathan was terrific to work with. He made Gus feel welcome and at ease right away. He communicated well and made us feel at ease leaving Gus. I would easily recommend him to anyone!”
“Kamini was absolutely wonderful with my dog. She kept me updated every few hours with photos and videos of Biscuit having the best time with her dog, Pia. He came home happy and tired! I 100% recommend her services and will absolutely be rebooking soon!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 10 years for family/friends. My experience continues to expand as I care for different breeds and sizes of dogs. High energy level dogs or a potato couch who loves to sleep. I will care for your pet as if my own. I’d like to stick to dogs 60 pounds or less at the moment. I’m a stay at home mom. Spend most of my time outdoors with my daughter. Having your pet around will help our time be more enjoyable. I have a big fenced in yard for your pet to run and play. Your pet will be in a clean and safe environment. We have plenty of room for your furry friend in our home. We currently do not have any pets, so yours would have all our attention.
“June was great while taking care of our pup. Kept us posted on all of the activities and shared pictures and videos. Molly looked like she had a blast with other Boston terrier June was caring for that day. Good experience. Recommended.”
About: We offer loving and compassionate dog boarding or drop-ins and cat drop-ins. Dog boarding is at our home with a large, fenced-in yard and plenty of room to play and roam around. We never take more than one dog guest at a time and take extra special care of your pet while you are gone, including walks and cuddles. My husband and I have been taking care of dogs and cats a combined 30 years and have both had dogs since childhood. I lived with dogs (2 Jack Russel Terriers and a black Lab) for over 20 years and have had my own cats for the past 10 years. I know how to walk, bathe and feed. BONUS THAT REALLY SETS ME APART FROM OTHERS 😅: I am a pet intuitive and add Reiki for pets into my services if it's wanted. I am a stay-at-home mom and can care for your pets in the morning and at night 7 days a week. I am also able to do small drop-in visisg throughout the day as needed. Currently, I can only care for your pets in your home. We have play and snuggle time depending on what your pet needs, feed and clean litter boxes.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats. Love walking and sitting dogs. I get to dogsit for my family and friends often when they go on a trip which I love! I am an active person and love the outdoors which would be perfect to get your pup as my walking buddy. 🙂 I WFH with flexible schedule. I go for a walk a few times a day which would be perfect to walk your pup with me! 😃 most nights and weekends I am free also which would be perfect for date nights and weekend care. I do have a dog crate at my apartment if needed.🙂 I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, where plenty of space to walk. Nearby trails if preferred. My own place is clean and safe for pet care. ❤️ 🐕

Was in the area for a nephews birthday travelling from Massachusetts with our terror terrier needing daycare during the party and Justin was great with the task keeping the furball calm, comfortable and happy. Sent lots of pics during the stay, was super responsive and was flexible with timing when needed. Would highly recommend to anyone needing pet care down in northern NJ.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Mount Arlington
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,201 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Mount Arlington. 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 Mount Arlington 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 2,201 sitters in Mount Arlington, 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.
