“Jaclynn is great with dogs! She has a stellar temperament and a lovely fenced-in yard. She was able to accommodate me last minute for my two large dogs, and was super caring when one of them got frightened by a thunderstorm during their stay. I will re-book with her in the future!”
“Katie is absolutely amazing! She is communicative, thoughtful, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took such great care of Hatchi and made sure that he was comfortable and happy the entire time. We really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little notes about how he was doing. It’s clear that Katie genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and Hatchi came back relaxed and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive sitter. Thank you Katie!”
“We found Jessica P. when we were in town visiting family and needed to board our pup for the day. Jessica was great — very communicative and easy to work with! She sent plenty of pics to show us that our dog was relaxed and engaged and having a good visit. We would not hesitate to leave our pup with Jessica again for daycare.”
“Lisa kindly dogsat for me at her home on a weekend day. My 4-month old pup had a great time with her and her pug (who is really cute). She had another client stay longer than expected, so ended up unexpectedly with three puppies on the same day! But she kept great communication and kept our appointment, which I really appreciated. You can feel Lisa's compassion for dogs. She keeps a very neat and clean home and property and has a fenced in backyard. Really glad to have her in the neighborhood!”
About: I have been a dog lover my whole life. I got my first dog at 5 and never looked back. Ive been a veterinary assistant for the past 21 years with experience in both general practice and rehabilitation. During this time I learned a lot about many different breeds, sizes and ages of dogs, especially in rehab. I also have experience pet sitting in people's homes, for family and for friends. Im currently not working. I spend most of my days at home enjoying life so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I have a newly fenced secure yard. Bathroom breaks are always available. My property is private with little to no traffic. On nice days we walk around the property. On and off leash walks are an option. The whole house is dog friendly Im able to easily separate dogs when and if needed for eating, sleeping and bathroom breaks. I have an old cat that is dog friendly but will swat if bothered too much. Ideally I would love to care for little dogs that can join in our daily life.

I have hands-on experience supervising dogs of all sizes and energy levels, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and well cared for. With my experience, I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. Your baby will be treated like my own — spoiled with attention, responsibly cared for, and given lots of love! 🐾 My availability is the following: • Weekdays — 12 PM-2 PM and all day after 5 PM • Tues/Weds — ONLY 12 PM-2 PM • Fri/ Sat — After 2 PM • Sun — After 7 PM • House-sitting and boarding is available at all times (contact me for requested hours/ needs) My work schedules may fluctuate, so please consider booking and contacting me ahead of time! Thank you for understanding :) Walks, playtime, you name it! You and your pups’ well-being is my top priority. I have a friendly pomeranian, Kiwi, at home who has resided with 14+ foster dogs in the past. He, and his pals, are taken on walks throughout the day when needed and are constantly attended to and played with at home. My home has an open yard, so it is essential I keep your pup leashed up for mini potty breaks to prevent any incidents :) I own a crate if needed, extra bedding, and plenty of toys and snacks to keep your puppy happy! 🐶
“Briaan took good care of our little girl. The meet and greet was smooth. Our dog was comfortable with Briaan. She kept us informed during the sitting. She responded fast to the message. Will come back.”
About: Thank you for visiting my page! I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud Rover Star Sitter. As a dog parent myself, I understand how important safety and trust are — they are always my top priority. Your dog will receive lots of attention, affection, and care while staying with me. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going for walks, playing, and simply making them feel comfortable and relaxed. I always try to follow each dog’s personality and routine so they feel safe and happy while their family is away. I also love sharing photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing. Sometimes, just for fun, I practice little games or simple commands with dogs and take cute photos of them during their stay — you can see some examples on my profile. I’m currently a full-time mom, which gives me the flexibility to give dogs plenty of attention during the day. Our home is calm, safe, and full of love for animals. Your dog will be treated like family here. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! My kids bring endless energy and love for ball games, ensuring the dogs are always entertained, active, happy, playful, and never bored during their stay! I’m always home to carefully watch your dog, providing cozy beds, toys and balls for their comfort and fun. For safety, I can crate your dog if needed. I offer personalized care, follow routines and prioritize their happiness.

“Brady had his first full session with Jessica today and he seemed to have loved it! Jessica constantly kept us updated on Brady’s activities and gave us pointers on training. I was afraid he didn’t want to come back home to me! He is currently passed out in the car ride back, so I call todays session a major success! Thanks, Jessica! We’ll be back!”

“Vanessa was super helpful. Cooper is a very energetic puppy.He always gets excited when meeting new people or being in a new environment, and apparently he was excited and didn't nap the entire morning, but Vanessa was very patient in taking care of him and kept me informed throughout the day by sending me the updates and photos. Cooper looked happy when he was with Vanessa and when I picked him up. I'll definitely go back to Vanessa for help in the future.”

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 Vernon 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 10,770 sitters in New Vernon, 87% 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.
