“Karina was an absolute gem! She gave me prompt and thorough updates about my puppy, and was so thoughtful and attentive throughout. She’s truly the perfect pet sitter! Thank you, Karina, we’ll definitely be back!”
“I simply couldn’t ask for a better home to leave our dog. Lisa is an absolute professional, and the entire family gives Odin so much love, it is incredible. We always look forward to the photos and videos of Odin playing with his buddy Bear, snuggling with the kids, or enjoying a walk. It’s great to know that when we go on vacation, our dog also gets to go on vacation! I am so grateful I found Lisa.”
“Kiko had a wonderful time with Tanvi. This was her first experience staying with Tanvi and in a couple of days, it looked like she felt at home there. Tanvi was very caring and tried different ways to get Kiko to eat her meals. We will definitely leave Kiko with Tanvi going forward. I'm glad we have such a worry-free option for Kiko.”
“Isbath/Anika was such an awesome sitter. We were in a real pickle because we had booked a different sitter for when we were on vacation, and she was very wishy-washy about accepting the request. That other sitter left us out to dry, rejecting our booking the day before we left for our 10 day vacation. We put out the request and Anika was so quick and so helpful. She asked all the right questions that sitters should want to know about your dog. She was very accommodating to our situation and my dog had so much fun there! I got photos/videos every day and knew she was in good hands.”
“Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!”
“Whitney and Michael took amazing care of Esther. Esther seems to have really enjoyed the stay and was kept entertained and loved by their young daughters. They did a great job of keeping us updated with cute photos. :) 10/10 would recommend Whitney and Michael’s home as a great place to board your dog!”
“Charlene was absolutely amazing! Her home and backyard is a perfect set up to host pets. Charlene loved and cared for my girls as though they were her own. Will definitely be using her again soon!”
“Our dog Monster had a fantastic stay with Michelle. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her family for 9 days while we were away. She provided multiple updates throughout our trip, and it was easy to tell Monster was having a great time. Highly recommend!”
“Natalie is incredible. She took in our dog and treated her as if it were her own. Her whole family is so caring and amazing. We have a hard time trusting people with our fur baby but we are so grateful and thankful to have found Natalie’s family. If you’re looking for an outstanding dog sitter who goes above and beyond- you will not be disappointed. We are so happy to know that our pup was well taken care of. She even cried when they dropped her back off at our house. We will be using Natalie and fam again and again and again without hesitation 🙏”
“Raj is an excellent dog sitter. Raj easy going, paying attention to detail and accommodating. Raj kept sending pictures and updates throughout the stay. Will book again, no doubt.”
“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”
“Sayak has been great with our furbaby, Milo! He's already had Milo 2x and the second time, Milo was thrilled to see him again- what better review than a happy dog? I get lots of feedback, photos and communication.”
“Angela did such a wonderful job with my dog Jessie. I was so nervous leaving my dog ith someone other than family. I asked for references and she didnt hesitate. Her set up for the dogs was beutiful. Her other dogs were so welcoming and did really well. She took my dog on a hike daily to meet with sheep from a neighboring farm. How cool. Plus she sent pictures to show how my dog was doing. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks again Angela. ”
“Jose was excellent and really helped watch my dog for me during my travels. Great communication and even sent pics to update me. Thanks so much for taking care of my fur baby!”
“We can’t thank Jessica enough for taking such good care of Charley! Jessica was so easy to communicate both before and during Charley’s stay with her. She sent pictures so we knew Charley was having the best time. We would definitely recommend Jessica!”
“Buddy had a great time. And we are glad to have found Vishnumansa to leave my pet (Buddy) with. Would definitely recommend Vishnumanasa to other per owners...great experience!”

kumud is a great dog sitter ! she took amazing care of our dog & treated him like family ! she knew we were nervous to leave our dog (first time with a rover sitter in a new state) & she sent us updates every single day; allowing us to enjoy our trip without worrying ! thanks kumud !
Lydia was overall fine. However, I felt that she was a little bit annoyed at times that she needed to take the puppy out for walks to pee and poop. We did a meet and greet ahead of time and gave a detailed schedule for her feeds and walks (which it seemed like she didn’t get a chance to review). I found myself wondering if she was actually affectionate with the dog.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Pluckemin can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Pluckemin 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 Pluckemin.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pluckemin. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Pluckemin 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
