“Ann was really great with our pup. It was his first boarding experience and it went very smoothly, I can tell my dog was happy and would have no problems staying with Ann again in the future. Ann kept us updated throughout the stay and overall was very professional.”
“Our dog Max spend almost 10 days with Cathy. She kept us updated with daily pictures of Max; He seemed very happy in company of other dogs - made few new friends.. Definitely we'll use Cathy's service again- she is very nice, friendly person. Max was well kept while we were away from home!”
“Melissa and her family are the absolute BEST!!!! My dog absolutely loves going to their home and being entertained, loved and treated like a princess. I can't say enough good things!”
“Priscilla was an exceptional dog sitter for our pup, Cairo. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was in capable and caring hands. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, ensuring he was comfortable and well taken care of. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with regular communication, sending photos and updates, which really helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was doing well. Her home was clean, safe, and welcoming, providing Cairo with a comfortable environment to settle into. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be trusting Priscilla with Cairo again in the future!”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“First time using Rover and this family was very accommodating. From their communication and assistance with app questions, the experience was hands down exceptional. We were away for 4 nights and they made us feel like Pickles was safe with our family. Could not recommend them any more.”
“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.”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
“Aeli was very responsive and caring with our dog. We were really appreciative that she sent photos on a regular basis and asked questions to ensure he sticks to his usual routine.”
“Hope took such good care of my dog Bruno last week when I was on vacation. I always feel at ease leaving Bruno with Hope when I travel. I wouldn’t want him to stay with anyone else. She takes great care of him every time and always keeps me updated with pictures and messages on how he’s doing. Bruno also loves staying there and running around in her big yard- it’s like he’s on vacation too! Thank you so much for everything Hope!”
“Sridevi is a great host for my kitten, Mochi! He stayed with them over the holidays. She made him feel at home with lots of care and toys and activities. She provided frequent videos and photos and kept me updated. She also provided video call. Highly recommended!”
“Evelien was genuinely the best! I felt comforted the whole time due to her constant updates and adorable photos! She was responsive and extremely friendly! My Ducky came back happy and in the best mood!!! I will definitely be sending my little boy back to Evelien for future stays and would recommend to anyone else looking for a sitter!”
“Maureen is wonderful!! Caring, great communication, very personable. We received photos and updates every day, and Wallace came back to us happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of! Will definitely board with Maureen again!”
“This was our 1st time using Rover. My husband & I were nervous. Then when we dropped off our dog Rocky who is a 10 year old beagle to Ken & Irene's I knew he was going in good hands. Irene is very sweet & caring. Everyday we got plenty of pictures with updates. Which put our mind at ease. We will definitely use them again!!”
“Elizabeth and Oleg were great! They provided updates of our dog Zion and were flexible when our pickup plans changed due to travel. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Evelyn and her family took such great care of Blanca. They were very flexible and understanding when our travel plans were altered and she needed to stay a few extra days. Blanca felt right at home!”
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.

Ann was amazing with my dog, Mocha, during an overnight stay! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. Her communication was outstanding — I received updates and knew Mocha was in great hands the whole time. It’s clear Ann truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
As a Veteran, my service dog means the world to me. I rarely leave him with anyone, so I am extremely cautious about who I trust to care for him. First impressions matter a lot to me, and from the very beginning, Ken and Irene answered countless questions and immediately made me feel comfortable. When we met in person, I knew right away they were the perfect people to watch my best friend. Throughout his stay, they kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. It was obvious that Kawhi was safe, comfortable, and being genuinely cared for. After five years together, spending virtually every day by his side, I know my dog better than anyone. When I picked him up, I could tell he had been calm, relaxed, loved, and exceptionally well cared for during his time with them. I highly recommend Ken and Irene to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate pet care. I would not hesitate to leave Kawhi with them again, and that is one of the highest compliments I can give.
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

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.
95% of Park Ridge 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 Park Ridge 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 Park Ridge 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 Park Ridge.
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 Park Ridge 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.
