“Jaimie provided wonderful care to our two dogs, Penny and Hugo. She helped them to feel safe and comfortable (and got them through all the scary noises of a loud thunderstorm!) We all appreciated the regular photos and updates that Jaimie sent to us.”
“Whitney and Mike were so wonderful with my dog, Zhenzhen. They took great care of Zhenzhen, and I think Zhenzhen really enjoyed his time. I received daily updates and photos, which made the whole process very easy. Thank you!!!”
“Finley found his home away from home with Laraine and her family. They welcomed him as their own and he was comfortable immediately. Laraine kept in touch daily and sent pictures. We could see that they loved having him as much as he loved being there. Finn loved playing with his new dog friends too. We are thrilled to have a family our dog loves and we trust.”
“Tanvi is super star host. We left Sailor with her for three days. He was very happy and relaxed during his stay and we received daily pic and video update everyday. Knowing your pup is happy while you are away, is a great feeling. I would definitely choose her again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
About: I have been in this field for 10 years and I am also a certified dog groomer and worked in the veterinary field! I can help in anyway! I am full time for wag walker, care giver! I love spending time with animals. I’ve been doing it for 10 years. Love every minute! I can offer either or whatever works for the client! I always like to do what the client wants. The best for their fur baby!
“Kind, extremely reliable, accommodating and true log lover. They treat my fur baby with care and love and she loves to go there. We are so thankful to Chandupa and Avi.”
“Luciana was amazing with Bourbon! She took such great care of him, especially considering I needed a sitter at the last minute. She was incredibly accommodating and kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Bourbon is a puppy with a ton of energy, and she handled him so well. I could tell he was happy, well cared for, and getting all the attention he needed. I would 100% recommend Luciana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. She is truly amazing!”
“I can't say enough good things about Anoti! She and her family welcomed Dante with open arms and really made him feel at home. Dante is very high-energy, and Anoti accommodated nicely with plenty of long walks. I could see from the photos how much fun Dante was having and how much love he was getting. I would definitely seek out Anoti for our future boarding needs!”
About: I am a caring, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I am attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and can provide reliable feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and basic daily care. I am also comfortable being patient with shy or anxious pets and understand the importance of maintaining their routines. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I can plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and other needs to ensure pets receive consistent care and attention. I am organized, dependable, and committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are in a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and any special needs. I always supervise pets, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure they have access to fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also believe in keeping owners updated with messages and pictures so they can feel confident and at ease knowing their pets are in good hands.
“Stefani is the BEST! We left our sweet Daffy with her and she took care of her as if she were her own :) I was a mess dropping Daffy off for the first time for a 5 night stay and got into the car knowing I made the best choice of a sitter. She checked in every day and really put my mind at ease. BEST! Thank you Stefani :)”
“They take such good care of Pearl! It's so nice knowing she's in good hands, and getting pics and updates of her having a good time - both playing and snoozing in the sun.”
“I appreciated the meet and greet, which made both Isbath and me comfortable with boarding my dog (bigger and older than hers). My dog obviously had fun and had good exercise. I'm very comfortable leaving my dog with Isbath”
“Noria was fantastic with my dog Nala. She boarded her in her home and made sure Nala had lots of fun and was well cared for. Norias love for animals shows through in all she does while caring for my puppy. Noria is very enthusiastic, warm and caring. I would highly recommend her services.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Radwa O. and her wonderful family! She boarded my pup Stormi for 6 days, and from the moment I dropped her off, I had zero worries. Radwa went above and beyond to make sure Stormi felt loved, included, and completely at home. The updates she sent were thoughtful and showed just how much Stormi was being cared for like one of their own. A huge thank you to her sweet pups Diesel and Lyla for putting up with my little fireball. Stormi can be a lot, but they welcomed her with such patience and playfulness. And to her boys, thank you for letting Stormi crash your sleepover! It meant the world to know she was surrounded by such kindness and fun. Radwa and her family are truly lovely people and amazing sitters. Stormi came home happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with love. I would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat! — Chanell G.”
“Very happy with Foxy first visit. Just as anyone, I was concerned leaving my dog in a new home, specially mine that is a bit scared of things and people. Charlene was very helpful explaining how things were going, how the adaptation was evolving, sending pictures and notes. Overall, extremely happy and I will leave my dog with her for another 2 weeks, which should speak by itself.”
“This was our first experience leaving Benny with a pet sitter and leaving him with someone new was not easy for me but Bhawani made it easier. The whole process from meet and greet to boarding was seamless. She did a thorough job vetting him to make sure he’d be a good fit and made sure she has all the details about our dog. The best part was getting updates with pictures and videos of his daily activities and responding to all our messages. She’s also been helping him in socialising with other dogs. Highly recommended Bhawani for anyone looking for a great home away from home for their fur baby!!”
“Chandar was absolutely fantastic. This was our first experience leaving our dog, and Chandar did everything we asked plus more. He gave us updates twice a day and photos of our dog throughout the day. From the photos and the feedback from Chandar, you know that your dog feels at home, calm and cared for. Our dog ate, slept well and got walked twice a day. Chandar went above and beyond in every element possible. Thanks Chandar we look forward to traveling again in the future with a stay again with you.”
“Catherine was extremely attentive and caring for our Mabel! She came back super excited and very well-cared for. Catherine is a great choice, especially if your dog tends to be more comfortable in a setting without other dogs!”

My dog boarding schedule is unique: I only book dogs on my days off from work. This means your pup gets my undivided attention around the clock—they will never be left alone. If you want a safe, loving environment where your dog is the absolute center of attention, let's schedule a meet-and-greet! Since I work full-time during the week, I dedicate my days off entirely to dog boarding. On these days, I am home 24/7, meaning your dog will have my full, undivided attention for walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because it becomes my primary focus on my days off! live in a cozy, dog-friendly apartment where your pup will be treated like family. Since I don't have a yard, I ensure they get plenty of exercise with frequent neighborhood walks and potty breaks every 2 to 4 hours. They will also have the friendly company of my Siberian Husky, who loves having a playmate around!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Brunswick
Our Great Pyrenees, Guinness, boarded with Raj and his family for nearly a full week while my wife and I were traveling. It was a great experience for Guinness and for us. Guinness was very well cared for. Raj sent lots of photos and videos of Guinness' activities during that week -- an effort we really appreciated. When we picked him up it was obvious that Guinness felt very comfortable in Raj's home.
We had another great stay with Pam! Reggie was so well cared for, and it’s such a relief knowing he’s in good hands, especially with the extra care he needs. Pam kept us updated with videos, and made sure he got his insulin shots, and treated him like one of her own. We truly appreciate the care and attention she gives him. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Pam again. Highly recommend!
Nico was terrific. Highly recommend! He watched our two dogs over the weekend and did an amazing job transitioning them to his home. Our little guy George suffers from anxiety, but he settled right into the new environment without any issues. Kept us informed throughout the weekend with updates and pics. Thanks!
Shannon was AMAZING with our pup! She sent us pics and funny updates throughout his stay, which made me feel so comfortable knowing that he was being taken cared of. She took him on tons of walks and to the fenced in dog park. She also let him make himself comfy on her couch and bed so he was cozy. I would definitely recommend Shannon and will definitely book with her again if she is available.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in North Brunswick can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their North Brunswick 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 North Brunswick.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Brunswick. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your North Brunswick 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
