Lineth is a great sitter. We left Pie with Lineth for the day and she took really good care of him. Usually Pie takes a lot of time to adjust to a new person but Lineth was able to bond with him quite quickly. That's a testament to her skills. Next time we need a sitter for Pie in NJ, we will definitely reach out to Lineth. Also Lineth was wonderful at keeping us updated. Even though Pie was with her for a few hours, we got regular pictures and texts. Fantastic experience overall.

Luciana was absolutely wonderful with Bheem and Bhairav! She was incredibly accommodating, especially since my request was last minute, and took such great care of them throughout the day. She even gave them a little pedicure, took them on walks, and regularly shared pictures and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Both dogs looked super comfortable, happy, and clearly enjoyed their day with her. Highly recommend Luciana ... reliable, caring, and genuinely great with dogs!

Laraine is fantastic! You can’t go wrong! We had a meet and greet where my dog meet some of the other dogs he would be staying with, and we thoroughly went over his routine and anything/everything else she needed to know about him. I would highly recommend Laraine to anyone to watch their beloved pets.

Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.

She assured me Zoey was being loved on and was having a great time. She comminuted with me the whole time and fast response. I will definitely use Pam’s services again when I need a sitter for Zoey!

About: I have a deep love for all animals and years of personal experience caring for pets. I am a proud owner of a friendly small dog, and I also have beautiful Lovebirds, Parakeets, and a peaceful fish aquarium at home, making my space full of life and care. I completely understand the daily routines, love, and attention that pets need. Since I work from home, my environment is safe, welcoming, and smoke-free, where your furry family member will receive non-stop attention, regular potty breaks, and a welcoming playmate! I love going for daily walks and ensuring pets stay happy and active. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, care, and respect as if they were my own! I manage my schedule beautifully, which means I am almost always at home to care for the pets. I can easily adjust my daily routine to match your pet's feeding, walking, and playtime needs. Whether it is a weekday or a weekend, your furry family member will receive constant attention, love, and timely potty breaks throughout their entire stay with me. Safety is my absolute top priority. My home is a clean, smoke-free, and welcoming environment. I have a friendly small dog to keep your pet company, and all guest pets are closely supervised during playtime. I strictly follow all owner instructions regarding crating, feeding, and medical needs. I also make sure my pet birds and aquarium are kept securely out of reach to ensure a stress-free and peaceful stay for everyone.

Barbara is great! I have an 8 week old Labrador retriever, full of puppy energy and I was very carefully vetting someone I felt could handle him with authentic love and care but who also understands dogs in all stages of their lives. After reading about Barbara and her experience and love for animals my gut told me she was the right choice. I was right! She was accommodating, punctual, friendly, kept me updated throughout the day & took pictures which made me feel at ease knowing he was thriving in her care. She has a beautiful yard which is a huge plus cause I know my boy got some good fun & exercise. Will definitely rebook :)!

Suna provided outstanding and loving care to Buddy while he was with her. Buddy enjoyed going to her home every day and playing with her sweet Maltese, Mimi. The two dogs became forever friends! Suna communicated with us daily, providing text and photo updates, clearly indicating that Buddy was well taken care of during his time with her. I highly recommend Suna if you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile to insure that your beloved pet is safe and happy, whether for overnight stays or daytime care.

About: I have my own dog (9 years old). I take excellent care of her. I walk with her more than 2 hours every day. I like playing and talking to her, bringing her to dog park. She is my sweetheart fur baby. I wash her food and water bowls every day and give her shower per month in summer and 2 months in winter. We go hiking together and I wish she keeps her nature. I had a problem to find someone to take care of my dog when I was traveling. That’s why I would like to help take care of your pets. Please let me know if there are any specific needs you’d like me to know about your pets beforehand. Example: did you pet take all shots? Your dog will bite or bark to other dogs or some people? Will she/he likes to chase animals? I’m currently semi-retired so I have ample time and flexibility to meet schedule needs. I can provide multiple visits during the day if needed and give you daily update. I’m reliable and offer company and care for your loved ones that cater to each family’s needs. I can also offer the daily update, to ensure your loved ones are always looked after. I have the fenced backyard where they can play with my dog together.

My 5 month old puppy Luna loves her and she was giving me updates throughout the day. I have now become a regular with Esther since then and will continue to book her again. Highly recommend her services, she’s very attentive and sooooo kind !

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - New Brunswick

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in New Brunswick on Rover is $32.1 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 6,398 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across New Brunswick. 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 New Brunswick 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 6,398 sitters in New Brunswick, 86% 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.
