“Sterlin took care of my dog for a few days and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She kept in touch with pictures and text and that means a lot to me. He had company and loved being with other dogs. I will definitely be hiring Sterlin again”

“Lisa took such good care of my dog! I didn't know what to expect - I have never boarded her except at friends' houses. She texted me photos and updates throughout the weekend, and asked questions about her habits. She had a movie night with her! And the best part was a surprise gift when I picked her up! (I won't spoil it!) Thank you, Lisa!”
“Once again Diana has helped sooo much in our quest for dogsitting services as we complete our multi-move until our hone is ready. Harley cones back revived, rejuvenated and as of today actually now knows the “drop it” command thanks to Diana. I had never had a sitter with their own dog but i can say i will actuakly look for it in the future because i now see the benefit. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her hands as she is friendly, flexible and extremely pet knowledgeable! Who can ask for more. I also love her pet pics! I just hope we settle close enough to be able to have her sit more often.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Northfield
Jared was awesome! He was easy to communicate with, and responded very quickly! We were traveling and he was so accommodating to our schedule. He sent pictures of our guy which made us so happy because we missed him. Walter was very happy and comfortable, We would highly recommend Jared! Thanks again for taking care of our pup!
Jan was amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and she made us feel completely at ease. She took great care of our high-energy chocolate Lab puppy, Moose, who rarely stays overnight without us. She kept us updated without us having to ask, was very responsive, and made sure Moose stayed active and entertained. The extra crate was also a huge plus and helped him settle down when he needed to. We'd definitely recommend Jan and will absolutely book with her again!
I am pleased that Myles was well cared for by Jim. Myles received the same pampered attention with Jima as he receives at home. It was also comforting to receive periodic photos to see how well Myles adjusted to his new environment. I would use Jim again in the future.
Jason and Lauren are very nice! They didn't have any trouble with following Taka's routine and feeding schedule. Their space is great; clean and comfortable and a big backyard! They even took Taka on a hike on of the days. We didn't have to worry at all. We look forward to future sittings!
Ashlee is the BEST!!!! We have always only used family for pet care in the past as we were too nervous to trust anyone else with our two babies but now am SOOO grateful to have found Ashlee! She went above and beyond in her care for our dogs! In all the pictures and videos I could tell our dogs had the time of their lives with her and Minnie (their new best friend and the friendliest most welcoming pup I have ever met!). I know our dogs will be so excited to reunite with them ASAP! Thank you Ashlee and Minnie!!
When my dog,Millie, first met Karrie I could have sworn she recognized Karrie as a long lost friend! Karrie welcomed my Millie into her home and sent me pictures of Millie looking extremely relaxed and tired from all her exercise. Karrie is a confident and capable dog sitter and very kind. This helped us relax and enjoy our Christmas ! We look forward to scheduling with her again! Thank you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Northfield on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 178 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Northfield. 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.
93% of Northfield 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 Northfield 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 Northfield 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 Northfield.
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 Northfield 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.
