“Auggie and I had an amazing experience with Heather and her family. This was the first time my pup had stayed with anyone new outside of my own family, so I was a little nervous about him being anxious. We did a meet-and-greet the week before, and Heather (and her very sweet family) made me feel completely comfortable and confident. During the stay, I received many fantastic, detailed updates and photos of Auggie’s long weekend of fun. Heather has great, well fenced yard that Auggie enjoyed many zoomies in - even on the day it rained. Auggie can be challenging to walk in public due to some dog reactivity, but Heather took great care to follow the tips I passed along when I dropped him off and I felt totally at ease. 100/10 would (and absolutely will) be returning again!”
“Very good dog sitter, my dog suffers from seasonal allergies. She was able to manage and treat my dog without having to take him to the vet which I myself could not do. Amazing Care I highly highly recommend”
“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!”
“Sarah was amazing! We had a last minute visit with family in the area (family is allergic to cats) and Sarah swooped in to save the day. We dropped our kitty off at her place, which was so clean, and we immediately felt comfortable. She understood that our kitty needed some time to warm up and gave her space, sent lots of pics, and ultimately was able to give her some cuddles! Will def be reaching out to Sarah again when we are in the area!”
“First time using Kia. Harley had lots of playmates and came home a happy camper. During his stay with Kia she sent daily pictures and comments. We recommend her and would use her again.”
“This was our second time having our pet stay with them, and once again, we could tell how happy and excited our pet was the whole time! 🐶❤️ Even though we were away traveling and couldn’t be together, they sent us lots of pictures and updates, which made us feel like we were right there with our pet. We’re always so grateful for the loving care and attention they give. Thank you so much, as always! 🥰”
“Jocelyn was great! Winston had a wonderful time in her care, she was attentive and sent plenty of updates on how he was doing. I will absolutely use her again if I need someone to take care of Winston.”
“Lee K was great with my dog Bodi. Knowing that she was familiar with looking after senior dogs and giving medication made me feel comfortable using her pet sitting services. She took great care of Bodi, helping him as needed & provided me with many photos & videos so that I could see how he was doing while he was staying at her home. Upon picking him up I could tell he had a relaxing stay and was comfortable within her home and around her other dogs. We are looking forward to using Lee K again in the future!”
“Euitae provided a great home away from home for our dog who can be very nervous in new surroundings. He accommodated to her special needs and surprised her with special homemade treats. He was also a good communicator during her stay, providing us with daily updates and photos.”
“Nicole did an excellent job watching our dear Abbie. Very accommodating and made us welcome in their home. We highly recommend Nicole and will definitely leave our baby in her care again!”

“Chloe was an absolute lifesaver and responded to my super last minute request in record time. My super shy pup could tell she was a sweetheart and warmed up to her quickly. Communication was quick and clear. I felt fully assured that my puppy was in safe, kind hands. I'll definitely be booking her again soon. Thank you again, Chloe!”
“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!”
“Samantha was really great! Honeypie seemed to love her and she sent many text and photo updates throughout the stay. Very conscientious and kind - I can't recommend her enough!!!!”
“I couldn’t have picked a better sitter for Obi! From the very first meet and greet, I could tell Stephanie and Corey were amazing. They’re both so kind and truly love dogs. Since it was my first time leaving Obi, I was pretty nervous, but they took the time to learn about Obi’s routine and what makes him feel at home, which really meant a lot. They sent so many photos and videos throughout his stay, from the funny moments to the everyday things, and it made me so happy to see how relaxed and loved he looked. He instantly clicked with Izzy and Luna, and seeing them all together was the cutest thing ever. He even ended up liking their toys more hahaha! Stephanie and Corey went above and beyond to make Obi feel right at home. I’m so thankful for how much love and care they gave him. We’ll definitely be rebooking soon!”
“Sasha was extremely well taken care of and spoiled rotten. Will definitely book with Charlie again in the future. He went above and beyond, and was completely understanding and able to hold onto Sasha bit longer when unprecedented events kept me from picking her up on time. Thanks Charlie!”
“Bryndon was terrific with Rome. We needed a new sitter for a 5 day, 4 night stay and Bryndon took the time to get to know Rome beforehand, asked excellent questions in preparation (as well as answering all of my questions), and handled Rome’s separation anxiety with being away from us flexibly and creatively so this was relieved quickly. Bryndon also communicated clearly and was entirely receptive to feedback. By the end of the stay when we picked Rome up, I could tell they had formed a bond and Rome has a new buddy in the nearby neighborhood. I’m so glad we met Bryndon. His jokes and updates on Rome were amazing , especially since I love humor and silly puns. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Bryndon for drop-ins, walks and future stays.”
“Where should I start? Evelyn did such an amazing job! My puppy definitely loves her. She provided details throughout the day with pictures and videos. She also did a bit of training. I'm so happy I found her and I'm glad she is able to bond with Hershey as well. I recommend her service.”

Kun was amazing with my pup and their dog Som is so sweet. My dog Willow was clearly well taken care of! I loved all of the videos and pictures that were sent to me throughout her stay. I would definitely book Kun and Jinny again knowing my dog was in such good hands
Aeli is simply amazing!! She was so caring and kind with our Tilly. She was constantly communicating and sending pictures which helped put our mind at ease since it was her first time away from us. We plan on having her stay woth Aeil again in the future, Tilly loved staykng with her and the family and made many new friends!
We had a great experience with her! She was very responsive and sent us photos of my dog every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her, and we really appreciated that she took care of his medications as well. We’re very happy with the care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
We had such a wonderful experience! They sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. The whole family is so loving and caring, and it’s clear how much they genuinely love dogs. They even prepared extra blankets for Pepper because they were worried he might get cold. They were so thoughtful and attentive to every little detail. We’re so grateful for the love and care they gave Pepper and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
Kevin was great!! I was definitely nervous about leaving Willow with someone new, but we met up at the dog park beforehand so (we) and our dogs could meet, and make sure they got along. They did, thankfully!! He was great with communication which made me feel better leaving her. She was happy when I picked her up and everything seemed to go well. I’d definitely book with Kevin and Bubbles 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!
Chen was great with Chowchow! She sent lots of photos and videos throughout his stay which I really appreciated. It was nice being able to see what he was up to and know he was doing well. She was very communicative, attentive, and clearly took good care of him. I’d definitely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Paramus is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $57 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.
There are 14,314 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
