“Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”

“Rachel and her family are great people and they took very good care of our senior lab. Rachel took the time to meet with us to get to know our pup ahead of our boarding period in order to ensure they can provide a welcoming home. Rachel was so responsive throughout and was so easy to communicate with. I would recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a kind and caring dog sitter.”

About: I have been raised around dogs my entire life and have over 11 years of hands-on dog care experience. To me, dogs aren’t just animals but can be family, loyal friends…the closest companions in our lives. I treat every guest pup with the exact same love, respect, and careful attention I give my own I work a flexible 9-5 job where there can be a day or two for me to work remotely. I’m open to boarding those days and the weekends too! I have two dogs in my loft currently. One senior 14-year old morkie and a 3-year old English pointer. Both are trained and don’t bother others. If crates are needed, I have one.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and provide lots of love and attention to their pets. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and administering basic care routines. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m also very responsible, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos for peace of mind! I work a full-time 9–5 job just 10 minutes from my apartment, which gives me great flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to stop by during my lunch break for walks, potty breaks, and check-ins to make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for. Before and after work, I’m fully available for longer walks, playtime, feeding, and quality time. On weekends, I have even more flexibility to dedicate extra attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel at ease. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs, routines, and any special instructions you provide. I take precautions during walks, keep a close eye on behavior, and ensure a safe space at all times. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, responsible hands.

“I was beyond apprehensive leaving my dog with anyone. I am a very protective mom. I truly feel lucky finding Christian on rover.com. He is amazing with my pit bull, Nico. Unfortunately, pit bull get a bad rap and I had some difficulty trying to find a sitter. We use his service twice and the second time around, my dog Nico went into his house wagging his tail like he lived there. This gave me a sense of relief because it confirmed that Nico was comfortable. Christian made sure to update us on a daily basis with text messages, pictures and videos. He even went the extra step and bathe my dog.”

About: I've been caring for dogs since 2013, when I welcomed my first dog, a Jack Russell Terrier. My experience comes from years of caring for my own dogs and sharing everyday life with them. I now have Cooper, a mixed breed dog who joined our family in August 2025. My experience also includes volunteering for dog walking field trips with St. Hubert's. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I look forward to learning your pet's routine, preferences, and personality so they feel comfortable in my care. I'm usually home Monday through Sunday, so I can offer care on weekdays and weekends. Boarding and day care fit into my home routine, and I can arrange drop-in visits around each pet's needs and my existing bookings. I'll confirm the schedule with you before booking and keep my calendar updated for travel or other changes. I welcome dogs of all ages up to 80 pounds. My current home is a small house on a spacious, unfenced property, so guest dogs will be supervised and kept on leash outdoors, away from our eight free ranging chickens. Cooper, our 53 pound mixed breed dog, is friendly with other dogs and has his own crate. I'll arrange a meet and greet, supervise introductions, and discuss compatibility and any separation needs before accepting a stay. Two children, ages 8 and 11, are with us every other weekend. When they are present during a booking, I will personally supervise them and their interactions with guest dogs. Children and guest dogs will never be left alone together. Please share how your dog behaves around children, other dogs, and birds. For drop-in visits in your home, I'll follow your care instructions and your dog's usual routine, and agree on updates and emergency contacts before the booking.

“I recently entrusted my furry friend to Mahita and couldn't be more pleased with the care provided. She demonstrated a genuine love for animals and went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and loved during my absence. Communication was seamless, with regular updates, photos and videos that eased any concerns I had. Mahita not only followed feeding and walking instructions diligently but also took the initiative to engage in playtime and enrichment activities, tailoring the experience to my dog's preferences. Mahita is not just a caregiver but a true animal enthusiast who understands the unique needs of each pet. I highly recommend Mahita for anyone seeking a reliable and caring companion for their furry family members. I'm grateful to have found such a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter, and I will undoubtedly entrust my pet to her in the future.”

Ryan was wonderful. Not merely kind and responsible, but he treated Frankie as part of his family. I especially appreciated the fact that Ryan not only sent us daily updates but sent photos that were so reassuring. Frankie is a shelter dog with a problematic background (which we had disclosed) and we were concerned about how he might react to being boarded. He came home happy, relaxed, and as sweet and loving as when we dropped him off. Thank you so much for, Ryan and Mom, for taking care of our little boy!

Esther was amazing with Mia! Esther sent me daily updates and pictures. Mia is in a single dog home and she got along well with Esther's dog. Mia was rescued on August 24, 2026 and Esther and her care of Mia was a HUGE relief when I went away for the weekend! I am looking forward to Mia's next stay with Esther!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Raritan

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Raritan is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $97 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,151 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Raritan. About 89% of Raritan 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
