“Kathleen was great. She kept us updated each day of our trip how Charlie was doing and sent pics of him. Highly recommend her for watching your pet! It was so nice knowing he was being taken care of properly while we were away! Will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks Kathleen!”
“The timing of our rescue arriving & out pre-purchased/non-refundable/pet-free vacation couldn’t have been worse: we only had one week with our sweet London before we had to leave her. As such, we spent a LOT of time reading reviews for a sitter who would provide a lot of attention, affection, and consistency. We truly couldn’t have picked a better person than Denise. We explained the pickle we found ourselves in and Denise immediately understood & put our minds at ease. From the first meeting, we could tell Denise loved dogs. She has a great backyard full of toys that our pup adored, and above all, Denise’s kind and gentle demeanor made London right at home. The frequent updates and photos made us certain we made the right choice. They certainly bonded over their week together & we will be sure to use Denise in the future! We recommend Denise 100%.”
“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey loves his Aunt Patti! When we dropped him off, he made himself right at home without a look in our direction! He celebrated Thanksgiving with Pat and her family, again making himself at home sitting on the couch with her soon to be son-in-law watching the game! We didn't worry at all about Jeffrey. Pat kept us updated with pictures and adorable videos of his days there! We were able to enjoy a few days with my husband's family for Thanksgiving without a single worry. I know Jeffrey can't wait to see his new family again!”

“Outstanding!!, Patricia and her husband were very kind and welcoming to our fur baby, she sent updates with pictures and that was much appreciated. We will definitely use them again”
“This is the first time we leave our little dog Lila with a dog sitter. We left her for a day and it was a fun day for her. Jada was amazing. She spoiled her and kept us updated with pictures and texts all day long. We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you so much Jada.”
“Karrie was absolutely amazing. Luna stayed there for 10 days. She always responds to messages quickly and sent picture updates of my dog all the time. She knew exactly how to take care of Luna and I would absolutely go back to her!”
“Kelley was a great sitter and allowed us to book the last minute, only a couple days prior. She was very attentive and quickly responded to messages. Our German Shepherd loved her stay at Kelley's place. The yard is more than spacious, and our dog loved playing and running around there. She had her own room with a dog bed and a water fountain, and was provided with play time and all the care she needed. Highly recommended, and will definitely use Kelley's services anytime in the future.”
“Blanca was very attentive to my little girl's needs. I was informed on a daily basis while I was away and had poor reception throughout my trip. So messages from her would pour in at weird times, but all in all a excellent boarder and will definitely recommend/return again.”

“I found Domenique last minute because I made last minute plans to go to Atlantic City for New Year’s but everyone on Rover seemed to be busy and the last sitter I used was asking for $350! I’m so glad I found Domenique because I needed someone kind and caring for my precious Teddy . Once Teddy met Domenique he was comfortable and was happy in her home. She sent me photos of Teddy sleeping and it was comforting. I would recommend her to anyone and plus she didn’t try to overcharge which was a plus . Anyone coming to Atlantic City should call her because she is very close to the strip and it’s very convenient to go there in case you want to check up on your precious baby. Thank you Domenique”

“We attended a wedding over a weekend and Katherine and John were so welcoming to Zoey! We contacted them for a meet and greet and they were very agreeable.

“Sandra was absolutely wonderful. We had a last minute request and it was our first time leaving our dog with anyone else besides grandma. She sent us photo updates, putting us at ease. Teddy had a blast and was full of excitement and a wagging tail when we picked him up. We would definitely love to have her care for him again.”
“Kristen was one of the best sitters my pup has had. Her and her family took such good care of Mochi. Mochi had so much fun and felt at home. Kristen sent me many pictures and updates throughout the long weekend which I loved. She was flexible with changing the pickup time too. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was wonderful! She sent me photos of my babies and gave me updates throughout the weekend. My Coco has some stomach issues and required medication and Amanda took care of her and updated me thoroughly. Amanda and her family let my puppies enter their home and their hearts. Amanda and her family treated them like their own. I would take my puppies back to Amanda in a heartbeat and highly recommend her as a petsitter.”

Kathleen took phenomenal care of Atreus while I was away on a 15-day work trip. Leaving a pet for over two weeks can be stressful, but Kathleen made the entire experience worry-free. She consistently sent detailed updates, great photos, and fun videos that showed just how happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for Atreus was the entire time. Her communication was top-notch, reliable, and thoughtful from start to finish. I returned home to a happy, healthy pup, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I would recommend Kathleen in a heartbeat to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive, and I’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips!
Victoria was great with Bella! She was so sweet, patient, and caring, even though I have a feeling Bella may have decided to show her “extra” personality while I was gone 😂. Victoria handled her like a pro and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. I came home to a happy Bella, so I’d say it was a success! I’d definitely trust Victoria with her again. ❤️
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!
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!
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 of Dog Boarding in Northfield is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $71 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 180 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 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.
96% of sitters in Northfield 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 Northfield home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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.
