“We’re so lucky to have found Kimberly to watch our sweet but anxious dog, Stella. 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!!!”
“Very responsible and attentive, I got the feeling that my dog liked them, and they sent me updates with photos throughout the time that really put me at ease and helped me feel like he was with me. This is the 1st time someone has updated me each time he took his medication, which helped a lot to alleviate my concerns that someone will forget this. Highly recommend!”
“My dog was in good hands with Ahmad. He made sure to play with my dog and ensure that he felt at home during his stay. Would definitely book again and my dog would agree.”
“Catherine was extremely attentive and caring for our Mabel! She came back super excited and very well-cared for. Catherine is a great choice, especially if your dog tends to be more comfortable in a setting without other dogs!”
“Ronit was amazing!! She provided consistent feedback and photos from our dog’s stay with her. Such a warm and welcoming home. She’s so friendly and took great care of our baby!!”
“Carly and her family were attentive foster parents for our two higher-maintenance rescue pups. Easy initial meeting, great home with expansive backyard for the dogs to play, friendly family dog. Responsive to messages and shared great photos while we were away. Will use them again!”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“Thank you Kathleen for taking such great care of Eddie! I know the booking was last minute and I appreciate your flexibility. I look forward to having you care for him again in the future.”
“Jessica cared for my nearly 13 year old Yorkie, Mattie, for 3 days. She is amazing! I was so worried about leaving my pup, I almost didn’t attend a family wedding. I’ve refused many invitations that would keep me away from him. Once we met this sweet, loving person and saw her beautiful, incredible home that’s totally equipped to manage dogs, I was confident Mattie would be fine and he definitely was! My dog hadn’t been away from home or me in over 5 years. He isn’t easy to watch. He’s like a little old man—set in his ways. Jessica sent daily pics and immediately responded to my texts checking on him. She got him to eat! And most importantly, she kept him safe. My baby came home well cared for and happy. I’m grateful to Jessica and her family for having him. I can’t give enough praise. As long as Jessica can watch Mattie, I’ll never turn down another invitation! Thank you very much from Matt and me.”
“Kate did an amazing job taking care of my baby kitten, Bella! She provided frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear my kitten was in great hands. Her care and attention to detail were exceptional, and I truly appreciated her reassurance throughout. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“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”

“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Skillman
Chandar was absolutely fantastic. This was our first experience leaving our dog, and Chandar did everything we asked plus more. He gave us updates twice a day and photos of our dog throughout the day. From the photos and the feedback from Chandar, you know that your dog feels at home, calm and cared for. Our dog ate, slept well and got walked twice a day. Chandar went above and beyond in every element possible. Thanks Chandar we look forward to traveling again in the future with a stay again with you.
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!
I had a wonderful experience with this pet boarding service by Chandrasekar. The boarding process was very smooth from start to finish, and the caregiver took the time to understand all the instructions regarding my pet’s food, routine, and special care needs. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. What impressed me the most was how relaxed and comfortable my pet seemed. Usually, my pet takes some time to adjust to new environments, but this time it was clear that they felt safe, cared for, and well looked after. I received updates and could tell my pet was getting plenty of attention and affection. I would absolutely recommend this boarding service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their pet, and I will definitely use them again in the future
Tao's home is beautiful and accommodating to pets. We met his wife and instantly realized this family truly loves to care for dogs. Her questions were catered to my dog's needs. She instantly connected with "Halo" and I just knew Halo would be very well cared for. After his stay, Halo returned happy and content. We will absolutely return again.

There are 1,953 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Skillman. About 90% of Skillman 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.
