About: I provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I excel at creating calm, joyful routines, ensuring exercise, companionship, and safety. House training? Patiently handled when needed. Every pup gets personalized love, attention, and care as if they were my own. Unless your dog has a special diet, kibble and treats will be provided 🐶 (if needed). Pet care is central to my daily and weekly routine. I structure my time around animal care, including my own pets, making availability and consistency a priority. Pets in my care are treated like family. I provide in-home care in a peaceful space with consistent routines, attentive supervision, affection, and respect for each pet’s unique needs.
“When you book with Susan, the whole family spoils your baby! Pugsley loves them all. Susan kept me reasonably updated with pictures and comments. They even read him a bedtime story! He's on a diet and they did a great job of loving him without excessive treats. He will stay again. Almost forgot. I was given hand-drawn pictures to post by his crate and a lovely keepsake. I'm quite happy!”
“I’ve heard of Rover app but not really familiar with it. Erika is AMAZING! She has given our dog great care while we were gone. I felt like it was last minute but she was definitely able to accommodate us d/t family emergency. She updated us everyday thru the app and even sent pictures! Her own dog is great with our dog as well. We will definitely book again with her to watch our dog.”

This was Cleo’s second stay with Shirley, and she had such a wonderful time! She loved spending time with Shirley, her family, and sweet Mia. Shirley sent me several photos and updates throughout her stay, which I absolutely loved. I felt completely at ease knowing Cleo was happy and in great hands. We’ll definitely book with Shirley again!
Shirley was absolutely wonderful! She was able to watch our Goldendoodle, Cleo, on very short notice, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we dropped Cleo off, Shirley provided updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Cleo was well cared for, happy, and in great hands the entire time. We truly appreciated the love and attention Shirley gave our sweet pup. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. Thank you again, Shirley!
Excellent experience. She took great care of Milah and was very kind from the very beginning. She kept me updated on how Milah was doing, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Milah seemed very calm, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell she gave her lots of love and attention. I would definitely leave Milah with her again and highly recommend her. 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newark on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,030 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newark. 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.
97% of Newark 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 Newark 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 Newark 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 Newark.
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 Newark 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 TX 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.
