“Carolina took such good care of our two dogs. They had so much fun playing with her dog as well. She sent daily updates about how they were doing which was perfect since we were so far away from home for over a week. We really appreciated her taking care of them. We highly recommend her loving care.”

“Cristina is an excellent petsitter. From the moment we met her she was very sweet and affectionate with Daphne. I was worried because Daphne is a very energetic dog but Cristina knew how to handle her and Daphne had a lot of fun with her. She went for walks 3 times a day, she received a lot of love. Without hesitation I will leave Daphne with Cristina again.”

“Lauren was awesome and patient with our lovable giant GSD. She was so patient and listen to all of the details concerning his care. She was also very observant, and gave us good advice on further care. We highly recommend her to anyone.”


“Cathy is very personable and made all us feel welcomed when we were looking for a sitter for the first time. She’s flexible and accommodating and Now We are a repeater like so many others. We highly recommend Cathy!”

“At first I was very skeptical dropping off my dog with special accommodations with a sitter, but Zuleyka made sure my baby was fed and treated right the whole time, and updated us periodically with videos and updates. I will definitely bring my dog back once I need a sitter again.”

“My dog Parker had a wonderful time. It was so nice to know he was treated as family and loved while away. From the updates to pictures was wonderful. Stephanie and her family were amazing. Can not say enough how wonderful she is. Thank you for treating my baby like your own!!!! Best care ever”

About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Shamel is my dogs new friend. He was very pleasant and keeps a very clean home. His wife is also very nice. I would 100 percent use him again. My dog came home happy and healthy”


“Mohini was great with Lola. I reached out to her on the last scheduled day saying I needed her to keep Lola an extra day and she said that would not be a problem. She also shared multiple photos of how Lola was doing. Thanks again Mohini”


“Kate and Juan are wonderful!!! We have two rescue pups who both have their own “issues.” We were so impressed with the care and attention Kate and Juan gave to Luna and Lola. Especially Luna who was likely abused in her past and is very timid around strangers. Kate and Juan sent us lots of pics and updates and we could see Luna really warming up to them amazingly quickly. They both really have a wonderful talent and natural affinity for dogs. We will absolutely use them again. I knew when I picked the girls up that they would be happy to return. Why? They both looked at me when I walked into Kate and Juan’s house and their expressions and body language clearly said “Really? Do we have to go home now?” Two more words about Kate and Juan: FIVE STARS!”


“Tae is an excellent dog sitter! Our pup Loki has separation anxiety, but took to Tae quickly and seemed to settle in very nicely. Tae was great with communications, and sent frequent updates and pictures, so we were completely at ease while we were away. Thank you so much! We and Loki appreciate your care!”

“recently had the pleasure of having Chulmin & Hyojin take care of my dog Woody, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! • Knowledgeable: Chulmin & Hyojin has an impressive understanding of dog behavior and care. It was clear that they genuinely love animals and know how to handle them well. • Communication: Throughout the sitting period, Chulmin & Hyojin was very responsive to my messages. I appreciated how quickly they replied, which made me feel at ease while I was away. • Updates: I received plenty of adorable photos of my dogs, which made my day! It was wonderful to see them happy and well taken care of. Overall, I highly recommend Chulmin & Hyojin for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my furry friend”

“Christine was such a fantastic caretaker for our miniature schnauzer! Her two dogs were friendly and kept him busy all week and they looked like they had a lot of fun. I was sent plenty of fun pics and videos throughout my time away. Would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, ensuring they feel loved, happy, and safe while under my care. My focus is on providing refreshing outdoor walks that give your dog the exercise and fresh air they need to stay healthy and happy. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and pace, ensuring every walk is enjoyable and stress-free. I have a flexible schedule and am home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, doggy day care, and regular walks during both weekdays and weekends. Dogs can enjoy regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest throughout the day, while cats can enjoy a calm routine with plenty of attention and comfortable downtime. I do my best to follow each pet’s normal schedule so their stay feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and household rules. Dogs are kept secure with appropriate leashes and harnesses during walks and outdoor activities, while cats are cared for in a calm and secure indoor environment. I closely monitor each pet’s behavior, eating habits, bathroom routine, energy level, and overall comfort throughout their stay. I also believe communication is an important part of great pet care, so I provide regular photos and updates to help you feel connected and confident while your pet is with me.
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Our experience with Mary was EXCELLENT. We had to leave Royal with her for the first time while on vacation because our regular dog sitter was unavailable. Of course we were anxious. Well, she made us feel very safe leaving Royal. She sent us regular updates. She kept him on his feeding and walking schedules. Most of all, Royal was HAPPY. She was caring and you can tell she genuinely loves dogs, not just sits for the money. I will be using Mary in the future and if anyone needs an EXCEPTIONAL dog sitter do not hesitate to use Mary. Your dog will be on vacation while you are too!. I highly recommend her without reservation.”

“I will give Kate 10/10 I can feel when I picked up my dog ,my furry daughter had been taken care of. And she keep me updated everyday which is amazing. And my dog is old and not many Dogsitter really know how to take care of old dog due to my previous experience of dog sitter. I just rebook Kate again for my upcoming gateway family and I feel assured that my dog will feels like home with her.”

“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“She's super great and attentive with my dog. My dog is still a young pup and she really paid attention and was willing to do all the small things in order for the training to keep going. Will definitely be a regular!”

Suzie is an awesome pet sitter. She treated Luna as her own kitty. She provided daily pictures and updates on how Luna was adjusting and said that Luna took over the house and had freedom to roam everywhere. She even said that Luna slept with her and her husband at night. I wholeheartedly recommend Suzie and I plan on using her again for my next trip.

I booked with Carol for boarding my dog. She was fantastic! She took very good care of my dog and adhered to feedings, walks, play time, and all the fun things my dog loves to do. She communicated well with me and provided pictures and updates each day. I can tell my dog enjoyed his time with her. If I need to board my dog again, I will definitely be booking with Carol again.

Christina was so communicative and Neptune seemed very well looked after while I was away for a week. When I described Neptunes potential reactivity she took it all in stride and he did very well while he was there, which I’m so grateful for. I will definitely use her services again!

Allison took great care of my dog, Quinn. Quinn is a senior dog who can be a little anxious, and Allison kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. She also has a fenced in backyard, which Quinn really enjoyed. Thank you for taking such good care of her!

Jamen was great! He had our Doxie for a week during the holidays, and, I had no doubt that she was in great hands. Jamen had set up the house so that Doxie would be comfortable the whole time. Jamen sent pictures and updates, and, responded within minutes when I reached out to him. On top of that, he was flexible when my dates changed. I would work with Jamen again in a heartbeat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Paramus on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 14,253 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Paramus. About 88% of Paramus 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 NJ 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.
