“Today was Tucker’s first visit to Jacqueline. He said he had a great time and can’t wait to go back!! Very easy to see Jacqueline really cares about the dogs and takes good care of them.”

About: Book with me. To ensure you have the best sitter for your pup, I provide a safe, warming, calm, fun environment when booked for an overnight stay at my place. Constant walks throughout the day. Always keep about two bowls of water around the house and provide daily morning exercise routines (my morning walks/jogs). I do recommend clients/parents to provide food and treats for dogs and keep me aware of any allergies or habits the pup has. I have no problem buying treats or toys as long as it’s okay with the client/parent. This also goes for traveling to clients/parents homes.
“Courtney and Sherwood are so nice and took good care of Dodger! We had a previous meet/greet with their dog and all went well, so we booked for the next day. They sent us pictures and texts throughout the day and I could tell Dodger was doing well there. We feel good knowing he’s cared for in a clean and happy household!”

“Katie did a great job with our senior dog and really helped us out in a pinch. Out of all of the sitters that I contacted who advertise themselves as accepting same day, last minute appointments, she was the only one who responded in a timely manner and had availability to keep our old lady for a few hours. She spoiled our big baby, was very communicative during the brief time that they spent together, was very friendly and welcoming and her rates are fair. I’d definitely utilize her services again if we’re ever back in the area and in need of a pet sitter.”

“This was not only my first time with Julissa but my first time using Rover. Wow did she make an amazing impression! My puppy Luna loves her! She was very response and immediately replied to any questions I had, or If I was just checking in. She was timely having everything ready for drop off and pick up. She followed my instructions for a puppy that has stomach problems. Not to mention she sent pictures of my puppy throughout the day which was so thoughtful. I picked up a tired happy pup! Will definitely be using Julissa in the near future!”
“Bonnie was the absolute best! Very last minute accommodating and provided plenty of updates with pictures and text. She kept really good care of my dog! Would highly recommend.”

“It’s our first time with this application and Bhavani was kind enough to guide me through the process … Romeo first time with his sitter was awesome 🫶🥰 he was happy and exited from the moment he went inside her house and made a new friend and happy to leave when the care was over. Bhavani was very informative, detailed , and was almost in communication with me through the day with videos and pictures updates … very nice and spacious backyard for Romeo to run around 😊 followed instructions with food and potty accordingly.. I will definitely choose her over and over again trusting her with our family dog … thank you Bhavani 🫶 for making Romeo stay an awesome and trusted stay.”

“Lorrie was SUCH a help to watch our pup in short notice and was so understanding to adjust her schedule to help us. Reina always has a blast with Lorrie and we cannot wait to bring her back to Lorrie’s real soon!”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs, Coco and Teddy, received! From the very beginning, Shannon was reliable, kind, and very attentive. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Coco and Teddy absolutely loved her, and it was clear they were well cared for and happy. We highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter! 🐾”

“Sara takes really good care of Winnie. I know this from the way Winnie runs up the driveway to meet her every morning. He is usually nervous around other dogs but Sara dealt with that like a pro. Now he has dog friends at Sara’s that he enjoys being with.”


“At first I was nervous leaving my puppy with a sitter. Pam and her family is soo amazing. My dog loves going there and always has fun. Pam sends pictures,videos, and always answers questions I ask her throughout the day about my dog which I appreciate. I can trust to leave my dog with her and have peace of mind knowing that he is taken care of. Thank you soo much for all your kindness and love you give to my fur baby!”

“Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.”

“As usual Levi had a great time with Jessica. He was tired and ready for bed when we came home which was perfect since it was late. Jessica was very accommodating to us running behind schedule due to traffic.”

“Nervana was quick to respond and very accommodating. Apollo was tired when he got home (exactly what I wanted) - she took him on a nice walk! Thank you Nervana. I highly recommend her and I would absolutely drop Apollo off again”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time work-from-home dog lover who provides a safe, loving, and active environment for your pup while you’re away. Because I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day — not be left alone for long hours. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor playtime, and my family loves spending time outside on walks, playing, and enjoying fresh air with our furry guests. We also have children who are gentle, caring, and experienced around dogs. Caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives, and I regularly dog sit for family and friends. Recently, we had to say goodbye to our longtime family dog due to age and health issues, which only deepened our appreciation for the love and companionship pets bring into a home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I’ll treat your pet like part of the family — with lots of love, patience, attention, and belly rubs. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for during their stay. I currently work from home full time so your pet will not be left alone. I have the flexibility for walks during the day and a fully fenced yard for play time outside. I have a large fenced yard that pets always will be able to go in as well as a walking friendly neighborhood. We will follow your lead we do allow pets in bed and on furniture but will also crate if that is how your dog is comfortable.
“I am very happy I found Jose. He took my babies in at the last minute and was great at keeping in contact with me and sending pics and videos. If I ever travel back here with my pups again he will be my go to.”


“Erica is fantastic with Boston. She’s incredibly attentive and warm, and it puts me totally at ease seeing how calm and happy he is around her. I love the way she just takes care of the dogs. Thank you!”

“Sitter was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I also appreciated the photo and chat updates to see what my dog was up to! Dog was happy when I picked him up.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Perth Amboy
William is a very nice, caring, friendly man. He watched my 11 week old bullmastiff pup and I couldn't have asked for a better person to watch him for the day. William provided photos of him playing in the yard with the other dogs and socializing with the neighbors. He is an all around good guy and I would definitely recommend and use him again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Perth Amboy on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 10,731 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Perth Amboy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Perth Amboy commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 10,731 sitters in Perth Amboy, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
