My wife and I recently had a baby. With all the stress that goes along with that, it was reassuring to know i could rely on Nikki and Ricardo to care of my husky Zeus. They sent constant updates and even offered to give him more food than what was sent with him, since everything was done in such a rush. I highly recommend them for dog sitting, you will not regret.

I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! Communication was excellent throughout my trip, and I received daily updates and pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear from the photos and updates that my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Knowing my dog was in such good hands made it much easier to relax while I was away. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter

This is now the 4th time Ekaterina and her family have baby sat for my girl, Loretta. Loretta is very nervous and has really bad separation anxiety. But Ekaterina and her family are always so wonderful with her! With them, I never have to worry about Loretta when my family and I go away; she is in perfect hands! I get constant updates and pictures. She’s taken for walks constantly and I get updated on it all. Ekaterina, I say this all the time, but you and your family are such a blessing to us! You are our forever sitter! ♥️

Charlene took great care of my Zoey! After a successful daycare session and trial overnight, I was at ease leaving Zoey with her for an extended period. She loves playing in her yard with her dog, Jack! Charlene made sure Zoey was comforted during the fireworks on the 4th and continued monitoring her for any signs of distress. She also tolerated Zoey digging in her garden (sorry!). Zoey loves being there and looks forward to going back! I highly recommend Charlene!!

Mike was amazing! 5 stars! We were very unsure about using Rover, as we hadn't used a dog sitting service in a while for our Bella, but Mike was wonderful! Even though Bella can be a little wary of strangers, she warmed up to him and loved spending time with him! She very much appreciated the 3 walks a day Mike was able to give her, and he was even successfully introduced her to another of his friends for additional socialization, just like we talked through. He listened to all of our specific instructions on what to do with her, and he followed through beautifully. Thanks Mike! We'll definitely be bringing Bella back to you again; we trust you 100% with her!!

​We are so happy we chose Tom to look after Fluffy. He was very professional and kept us posted with pictures. Fluffy is an anxious dog, but Tom made her feel right at home—even letting her sleep on the bed and hang out on the couch. He also let us do a meet-and-greet the day before, which was very helpful. We will definitely be booking with Tom again.

This was our first time using Karina and her family to watch our little guy so I was a little apprehensive but I needn't have been. During our meet & greet they just gushed over him. Karina and especially her daughter took such great care of Teddy when we were away. Though he was happy to see us when we returned I don't think he wanted to leave them! I received lots of pictures and updates and I knew he was in good hands. They're great, truly love dogs and I highly recommend them!

Elizabeth was so awesome! She treated my pup as her own and cared for Bella so well. Bella had ample play time with her puppy pals outside in the large backyard and had plenty of nap spots inside. It was very hot during her stay and Elizabeth made sure all the pups stayed cool in the AC. I definitely recommend Elizabeth!!

I would 100% recommend booking Dhruvit as a sitter. One of our dogs has special needs including three different types of medication and a a special harness. The other is just very high energy and we were able to rest easy knowing our fur babies were in the hands of true animal lovers. Our dog Morty has back issues which made us hesitant to leave him with a sitter, but when we picked him up he was in better shape then when we left… 10/10 !!!

First time using this app and Cristian was the Best! Took great care of my puppy, walked her a few times a day, showed enthusiasm with her, and sent me photos and updates daily. Great caretaker, easy to communicate with and very understanding because I was a little late with my flight. Will be using Cristian again for sure next time!!!

Julissa was awesome! She truly treated my dog like he was her own. She kept in contact with me daily with updates and pictures and videos, which I very much appreciated. She spent time with my dog, taking him for a walks, to play at the dog park, and out on adventures, which was very good for him and helped with socializing him. I recommend if you’re looking for a dog sitter or walker! I look forward to using her in the near future.

She did a fantastic job! We received lots of photos and videos every day, and she made our timid kitten feel comfortable right away. She is a kind and caring cat mom who will give your cat all the love, attention, and play they need while you’re away. We loved the peace of mind seeing that she was playing and having fun, instead of worrying about the conditions of a kennel. She responds to messages quickly, and is receptive to all the small details about your cats personality and daily routine.

Raheem was great! He is very friendly and laid-back, which is a great match for our dog, Coco, who gets overexcited very easily. From the start, he was prompt with communication and information. He scheduled a meet-and-greet and shared more about his experience taking care of dogs, While we were away, he kept us posted on how Coco was doing throughout the week. We had some travel delays on our return trip and he was able to accommodate some small changes in the pick-up time at the last minute. Coco was a happy girl when we picked her up and it was clear she had a good time. We'd definitely use Raheem again!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Melodie! She watched our dog, Hunter, for two weeks, and we couldn't have asked for better care. From the very beginning—even before we officially booked—she opened her home to us and completely set our minds at ease about how he would do. Hunter was incredibly happy, well cared for, and treated like family the entire time. Most importantly, he got to make some new friends during his stay, which he absolutely loved and enjoyed so much! While we were away, she kept us constantly updated with photos and videos of his adventures, which we deeply appreciated. It was so comforting to see him happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Melodie truly goes above and beyond, and we will absolutely be counting on her for future stays. Highly, highly recommend!

FAQs for Boarding - Plainfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Plainfield on Rover is $55.5 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 13,383 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Plainfield. About 88% of Plainfield 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.
