“Christina is just a blessing to our family, she loves our Mindi and really takes care of her like her own. Mindi is not longer a younger pup and needs patience and love. Once again her services and love to our puppy are so much appreciated. Thank you so much 😊”
“I am very happy with the care Sujata took with my dog. They sent daily updates and photos which put my mind at ease while I was away. They were also responsive and were upfront about everything. My dog was happy and relaxed when I picked him up, I will definitely be a returning customer.”
“Ann paid very special attention to our dogs and made sure to keep us updated multiple times every day! The dogs were brought on multiple walks/play sessions a day, and I felt comfortable on my trip knowing that someone capable and caring was watching my pups :)”
“My big guy had the best time! The property is amazing! He had friends to play with and they have plenty of space for them to run and play! Sierra and Liam sent me picture and videos keeping me updated! Tobias was almost sad to leave! So glad I found them!”
“Keeley was absolutely amazing! I was really nervous leaving my dog, Alaska, for the first time since moving here, but she made the whole experience so easy. She sent frequent updates and tons of pictures, which helped ease all my anxiety. Her dog Kobe was such a great companion too—Alaska clearly had the best time playing and came home completely worn out, which says everything 😂 Keeley is so kind, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Amazing experience, they took great care of our pet. Their dogs are wonderful as well. I would definitely recommend and be rebooking with them in the future.”
“I would definitely recommend Michele as a sitter for anyone. She kept me updated all day with photos and kept my dog busy the entire time. I will definitely be booking again with her.”
“Arellys was fantastic, she was so accommodating and very kind. It was my first time using rover and leaving my puppy Nikko but I felt safe leaving him with her. We will definitely be going back to Arellys !”
“Happy Dogs! Constant and regular contact from Jin and Weiliang. Multiple photos of my dogs playing, eating….well, just being dogs. I was a repeat customer and hope to keep “repeating”!”
“Ludo had an awesome stay at Aimee's place. Aimee and family were wonderful, they took great care of him. Ludo made a new friend with Remi, their sweet little cockapoo. Aimee kept in touch via Rover app and WhatsApp and sent us photos and updates regularly. We will definitely board Ludo with Aimee again in the future.”
“Gina was great! She took amazing care of our dog Bailey while we were out of town and loved on her just the same that we would. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos and made us feel at ease that our girl was in good hands while we were gone! Would absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“May and Bob were wonderful with our Charlie! They provided updates and pictures throughout her stay, and I know they spoiled her like she was family. They're the best dog sitters we've ever had, I will be recommending them to everyone.”
“Ronald is wonderful and made my dog Walter feel like part of the family. His dogs are very friendly and got along great with Walter. Ronald kept me updated with pictures and comments during his stay. We will definitely use Ronald again and Walter is looking forward to his next stay.”
“Becky was absolutely amazing! She did a wonderful job of sending pictures and giving me updates on my dog, Sampson, while he stayed there for 3 night/4 days. Samps and I will be returning when I have my next trip. :) Thank you, Becky!”
“Mary Kathryn was great to our Bo, she sent tons of pictures and updates and was genuinely interested in learning about Bo! We will absolutely be using her in the future!”
“Excellent family to leave your dog. They not only took excellent care for Luna but they loved her all the time she was there. Luna was born deaf and at times can be a very nervous dog. Not only she relaxed the same day there but became friends with the other dogs in the house. I highly recommend Darren!”
“Lindsey and her family took care of my pup like their own. I could tell from the photos that he really enjoyed his stay. I would definitely use her service again in future and recommend others to reach out to her for pup care. Thank you!”

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. 🐾

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Newark on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 2,112 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Newark. About 91% of Newark sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
