“Hands down the best Rover experience I’ve ever had! The meet and greet was incredibly thorough. I felt completely at ease leaving my two dogs in Brinyedi’s care. Throughout their stay, I received tons of updates and adorable photos that showed just how happy and well-cared-for they were. I’m officially a forever client. My dogs will always be staying with Brinyedi while my husband and I are away.”

We truly appreciated their kindness, flexibility, and the loving care they gave Cassie.”

“I would not hesitate to recommend Tony and his excellent care the next time you need to board your smallest family member. Our Molly, who is in her 14th year, had just started to display some cognitive dysfunction as well as what we perceived as sadness in the loss of her best buddy, her brother from the same litter. Tony was very attentive and observant of Molly's behavior as she tried to adjust to her new surroundings. At times she did need some extra care due to her confusion or anxiety of her situation which Tony lovingly provided, all the while making sure that we were receiving videos and feedback as to her experience.”
“Kelly loved her stay with George! His dogs were great with her, and she enjoyed his fenced yard and walks in the woods. I know this, because when I picked her up, she wanted to go back in his house. 😂 The updates with pictures were great while we were away.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Richwood is $53
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richwood
Brooklyn was amazing as always! My dog Toby, who has separation anxiety, had a wonderful time even when he had a few whining episodes at night. She was so patient and sweet with him. When he came home, you can tell he felt loved the entire vacation. He ate, drank and slept like normal. He had a nice doggy vacation with Brooklyn and of course, we will definitely be booking again if needed. Thank you Brooklyn!
We love to book Bridget for our dog sitting needs. She loves our dog and he gets to stay with her at her house carefree. He is allowed on furniture and he is given lots of attention and walks. He enjoys her yard and gazing out her windows. She sends lots of pictures of our dog during his stay we are traveling. I love having the peace of mind of knowing that he’s well cared for and safe when we are away.
They continued to provide great care, to make sure our dog feels comfortable and loved. Communication is always clear, and we have complete peace of mind knowing everything is handled so professionally. We truly appreciate the dedication, and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for quality pet care.

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 Richwood 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 Richwood 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 Richwood.
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 Richwood. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Richwood 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.
