“10/10 every time. Carol and her family take the absolute best care of Max we could ever ask for. Their home has become our dog's vacation home while we are away! Thank you so much for all you do and for making us feel comfortable and worry-free while he's with you.”
“Michele is a wonderful sitter! I’ve used her several times to watch my dog, and each experience has been smooth and completely hassle-free. She’s very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always willing to work with my schedule. She carefully follows all of my instructions and consistently sends pictures and updates throughout the day without me even having to ask, which gives me great peace of mind. I always feel reassured leaving my dog in her care, and I’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future.”
“Erinn was great! She was very quick to respond to all my messages and updated me every day with how things were going with Mochi. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“I was nervous leaving my puppy for the first time, but he sure wasn’t! He had an amazing time at Jonathan’s. He went on walks, hikes, and kept busy with other dogs there. He experienced no anxiety at all. Jonathan was great with updates and communication. Oliver will definitely be back in the future!”

“Dawn was great! It was our first time having our pup boarded and she couldn’t have been in better hands than with Dawn. Her yard and toy collection is every dog’s dream. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures which was so nice to have. Totally recommend!”

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! 💖🐶
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't recommend Michele highly enough! From our very first meet and greet, I knew Rosie would be in wonderful hands. Michele was warm, professional and took the time to learn everything about Rosie's routine, including her medication and all of the little details that help her feel comfortable. While I was away, Michele sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Every photo showed Rosie looking happy, relaxed, cozy, and completely at home. The best part came when I picked Rosie up. She was excited to see me of course, but as soon as Michele walked away to grab Rosie's belongings, Rosie actually ran after her! As a dog owner, I don't think there's a better compliment than that. It showed me just how comfortable, loved, and secure Rosie felt during her stay. Michele exceeded every expectation. She is kind, attentive and dependable I would trust her with Rosie again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
Carol & her family were wonderful with Oscar! Since we were new to Carol, we started with a meet-n-greet, where Oscar could explore the house. When we dropped off Oscar for his stay, he ran up the porch stairs and couldn't wait to get in the house. Before we even left, he was off exploring again. Carol provided daily updates and photos. Like me, Carol works from home and Oscar found his "replacement lap" to sleep on during the day, something he was clearly happy with. Oscar was very well taken care of and we highly recommend Carol!
Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊
Charles took great care of our 6-months old Goldendoodle, Maxie, during 5 days boarding. He was very responsive and made us feel comfortable leaving our puppy for the 1st time. When we picked him up, Maxie was happy, it was clear he had been very well taken care for. In fact, Maxie seemed so comfortable that he did not want to leave. We would absolutely use Charles again. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mountain Lakes on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 12,831 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mountain Lakes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Mountain Lakes sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Mountain Lakes landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Mountain Lakes 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 Mountain Lakes.
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 Mountain Lakes 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.
