“Our pup had a wonderful time with Laraine! It was our first time leaving her with someone and she did amazing! Laraine was extremely professional and organized. She shared videos and pics daily and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. I will definitely use Laraine again anytime we need someone!”
“We went on our vacation. Our dog Toby went on his vacation with Karina and her family. We can tell from the pictures she had sent us that we was having a great time. We will definitely be booking Toby's next stay with her.”
“Mariia is AMAZING! She sent us updates and pictures every day of our cat she was watching. She is very thorough with our cat's needs. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worry because we knew Oreo was well taken care of. Mariia is very nice and we will definitely be using her again! Oreo misses her!”
“I could not have selected a better person to care for Molly. Both Roseanna and her lovely boys gave my fur baby the best love and attention I could ask for. I felt 100% comfortable from the time I dropped her off until I picked her up. She already misses her new doggie friends she made and she will be returning in June for several days. I highly recommend Roseanna (and her boys who love the doggies too) to anyone who wants their animals in a loving and caring environment. Thank you !!!!”
“We were on vacation for a few days. We felt secure about our dog. I felt that our dog was left in good hands with Yvette. She was really wonderful and caring towards our dog. We really appreciate her handling of our dog during our vacation.”
“Snickers had a GREAT time with Katie and Rooney! This was the first time we’ve left a dog with anyone other than family and Katie made it so easy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the stay which allowed us to be relaxed. It was also very nice to not have to bring a crate, as Katie has plenty available. Drop off and pick up were a breeze and Katie had a lot of flexibility, and was quick to respond. We are looking forward to Snickers next stay with Katie!”
“Jiyao and Yiting were amazing with Daisy! They sent us adorable photos and videos throughout her stay, which made us feel so connected. Daisy came home with a huge smile, still in her playful, happy mode. We could tell she had a blast—highly recommend these wonderful hosts! We’ll definitely book again!”
“Harleny was an awesome dog sitter. She took care of Ruby as if she was her own fur baby. Ruby also loved her a lot. She also shared lots of pictures and videos, which made me feel so happy and felt she was in safe hands even if we were miles away from her. Will definitely reach out to her on our next vacation.”
“First time using Sonia and she was great ! Will be using again she sent photo updates and has a great space for my two dogs to play. So happy my dogs were taken care of so well! Thanks Sonia !”
“We left our 11 month old lab/border collie with Monika for the first time. It was an emergency and an over night stay. She was very accommodating and left us feeling at ease after we dropped off our pup. Monika sent us multiple texts and pictures too to keep us posted on how our pup was doing. We will definitely us her services again soon.”
“Megan was amazing! She took care of our dog like she was her own. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her, and was given constant updates. I’m so happy to have found a dog sitter I can trust. I will absolutely be booking again!”

“first time boarding with Kiana and it was great! She communicated well and sent lots of photos, and Joy seemed like such a happy girl when I picked her up! Looking forward to her watching Joy longer during the summer especially knowing how great of care she gives dogs!”

“We couldn't be happier with Amanda. From the initial meet-and-greet to the daily check-ins, communication was clear and reassuring. Loved getting plenty of photo and video updates which gave us total peace of mind. Amanda handled him very well there was a lot of play time for Teddy and he was very happy at her place . We will absolutely book with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Skillman
Chandar is such a kind person, and his love for dogs really shows. My Lagotto can be a little nervous around others, especially after all the changes that came with our move from Colorado. He put her at ease and treated her like one of his own. He spoils the dogs with massages and lovely walks, and sends the most wonderful photos. I honestly couldn’t have found anyone better to look after her. She absolutely loves him and his family.
We had a wonderful experience with Chandar. He took such great care of our furry family member and made sure our dog felt comfortable, happy, and loved. He was reliable, caring, and attentive, and kept us updated throughout, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear he genuinely loves animals and treats them like his own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets. We will definitely book with him again!
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!
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.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Skillman is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $53 and $67 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 1,978 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 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.
