Very happy with Savi! This was my first time leaving my dog Zola anywhere. She started with day care and then spent almost a week with Savi. I was updated daily with photos and videos. I knew Zola was in great hands. Leaving your dog at a new place can be anxiety-provoking for both owner and dog, but I actually felt calm and reassured with Savi. Highly recommend!

Kristen did a fabulous job, she is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog had a great vacation in her place. She took a fantastic care of him. She regularly updated me with pictures and videos. She kept me posted frequently and that helped a lot. Thank you so much Kristen and I would love to be a repeat customer for my pet and greatly recommend her. Thanks again.

Highly recommend Jolanta to anyone looking for a loving and caring home away from home for their dogs!

Dhara and her family were friendly and caring hosts for our little man Mr. Darcy. That includes their pooch “Coco” who was playful and not territorial with a visiting doggie scampering around the house. Dhara sent plenty of updates and photos during Mr. Darcy’s visit as of an upcoming longer stay. The stay could not have gone better, and we’re very confident and comfortable leaving Mr. Darcy in the caring hands Dhara and her family going forward. Its clear that they’re “dog people” who care.

I couldn’t even possibly describe all my happiness in one post. They are the most phenomenal sitters! This was my first time using rover and they were so kind and described the process. From the meet and greet to the drop off and pick up all with ease. They sent so many pics!! And it truly put me to ease. They made me feel like I was leaving my dogs with family instead. I will definitely be working with them in the future without a doubt! And we love their dog Neo and their wonderful family!! The thought you put into taking care of them was just amazing!!!

Ryan did a great job with Spenser. Daily outings, regular updates, and plenty of photos, we always knew our dog was in good hands. When our trip ran four days longer than planned, Ryan didn't skip a beat. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would recommend him to any dog owner without hesitation.

Pam was great taking care of my two dogs! Pam regularly sent pictures and gave us updates. They even ran out of food during their stay and Pam was nice enough to share her dog’s food with my dogs. Overall, I would recommend Pam to any dog owners. I’m positive our dogs enjoyed their “vacation” with Pam!

About: I am a father of 2 & 4-legged kids and the go-to dogsitter for friends and family. I am reliable and my schedule is flexible. I am the primary caregiver of my son when he's not in school. The rest of my schedule is often flexible, especially with advance notice. Having been a dog owner for more than 10 years, I am skilled in head scritches and belly rubs, and am not scared of slobbery kisses or getting dog hair on my clothes.

About: We're a family of six—myself, my husband, our three kids, and our Great Dane, Indigo. We take only one booking at a time so your dog gets our undivided attention and care. Our home is never empty. My husband works from home daily, and our kids are lifelong dog lovers. Indigo is well-loved and spoiled, but she's truly longing for a playmate to chase around our fenced backyard. Mornings and evenings are for short, leisurely walks, while lunchtime calls for a longer jog. Being a mom of four—Indigo included—I bring patience, calm, and attentiveness to every pet I watch. I love sticking to their routine, learning their favorite toy, their favorite spot, and all the little quirks that make them who they are. My husband and I have shared our home with both big and small dogs over the years, so we're comfortable with any size, energy level, or personality. For stays longer than five days, we kindly ask that you bring their bed and an old shirt to help them feel right at home. Until we meet your four-legged family member, know that they'll be treated like one of our own. Morning walks, evening walks, and plenty of play in between. We follow your dog's routine so they feel right at home. Let us know what makes them happy. They'll have free run of our home and a warm spot to sleep at night. We've got a fenced yard and a park down the street. We do everything with them just like you would on a normal day.

Kim sent us updates and pictures throughout the entire stay so we felt comfortable knowing that Stella was in great care. Kim took Stella for long walks and made her feel right at home with lots of cuddles. We will definitely be using Kim’s services again. She is professional, caring, and kind. Thank you Kim!!!

We had such a great experience leaving Bruno in Raj’s care for the night! From the start, him and his wife were incredibly communicative in sending us regular updates, pictures, and even videos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pup was having a blast and being very well taken care of. Their dog Kaju was great company for our dog Bruno. They were also extremely knowledgeable about dogs and handled everything with confidence and care.. Bruno got plenty of playtime, attention, and love, and we could tell he felt comfortable and happy the entire time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Raj again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter!

About: I love the company of dogs. I'm incredibly comfortable around them. I don't have my own, but I have 2 cats who I cherish and I imagine I would cherish your furbabe(s) just as much for the time I would have them. I have 2 cats! Feeding everyday, scooping litter every other day, replacing water fountain every 2-3 days, and loving them every minute I can between work and on the weekends. I like to offer them as much attention as possible in the form of playing and petting. I am also keen on them eating and drinking properly and making sure their pooping/peeing is regular.

Thank you Dipak & Sunny.My dog takes time to warm up to other dogs, and I was a bit worried since they have their own — but they were so patient and let him settle in at his own pace. Regular updates put my mind at ease, and he came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend them for anxious pups.

Macauley was absolutely the best! Our pet was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for with her. It was clear from the moment we met that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-loved pet, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their furry family member!

Kassidy was very caring and our pet Buddy loved his stay with her. She kept sharing Buddy's activities info and his photos with us periodically which was very calming for us. We will definitely use her services in future and recommend her to those who are looking for a safe home for their pets while going on vacation.

FAQs for Boarding - Plainsboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Plainsboro on Rover is $39.41 per night (as of September 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 2,032 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Plainsboro. About 90% of Plainsboro 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.
