Lineth was absolutely wonderful with Bruno! She was so sweet and incredibly responsive, sending frequent updates and photos that really put us at ease. You can immediately tell she’s attentive, follows instructions carefully, and truly loves animals. We’re already booking her again in April and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!

We left our 2 year old Belgian with Jaimie for 5 days, and she took terrific care of our puppy. She sent us daily updates and pictures, sometimes more often. She catered to his fussy diet without a problem. He slept in bed with her, followed her around the house, and frolicked indoors and outdoors with her own dog. When we came to pick him up, he was beyond excited to see us, but kept on going back to her as well. For someone who can’t actually verbalize, that’s a pretty strong statement. We will certainly use Jaimie for “babysitting” again.

Knowing your pup is happy while you are away, is a great feeling. I would definitely choose her again and recommend her to other pet parents.

Jenny is such a great dog sitter! She watches our Italian greyhound puppy on a weekly basis and is so great at updating us on how he is doing, being patient when he gets anxious or nervous, and is very flexible and communicative. She is also very conscious of dog interactions and made time to have our puppy meet hers beforehand. Would definitely recommend.

Charlene was absolutely amazing! As parents of our 9-year-old Havanese, we are very careful about who we trust to care for him, especially because he has anxiety and takes time to feel comfortable in a new environment. Charlene went above and beyond to make him feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Her patience, kindness, and genuine love for dogs were evident from the start. She took the time to understand his needs and gave him the attention and reassurance he needed to relax. We also appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that he had been treated like a member of Charlene's family. We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care Charlene provided. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter. We will absolutely book with her again!

I can't say enough good things about Anoti! She and her family welcomed Dante with open arms and really made him feel at home. Dante is very high-energy, and Anoti accommodated nicely with plenty of long walks. I could see from the photos how much fun Dante was having and how much love he was getting. I would definitely seek out Anoti for our future boarding needs!

This was the first time I ever left my dog with someone else, and I was honestly really nervous and worried about how everything would go, for him and for Ginnette. The initial settling-in was a bit difficult, and I truly thought it might not work out. But she handled it so incredibly well. She stayed calm, patient, and reassuring, and within about half an hour he was already feeling comfortable. She sent me regular photos and videos, took him out, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. I never once had a bad feeling. We are from Germany and came here for a special occasion, so finding someone trustworthy meant a lot, especially in a different country. She completely took that stress away from me. My dog felt safe, I felt at ease, and I’m truly grateful. I can highly recommend her. Thank u once again ❤️🥰🐶

Esther is an absolute gem! My puppy, Alfie, had a wonderful time staying with her. From the moment we dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. ​Eather sent me frequent updates and adorable photos, which always made me smile and reassured me that my pup was happy, safe, and being spoiled with attention. She made sure Alfie got plenty of playtime and snuggles. Next day pup came home happy, and clearly well-cared for. ​I can't recommend Esther enough. She's not just a dog sitter; she's a true dog whisperer. We will definitely be using her again for all our future boarding needs! Thanks a lot Esther!!!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Somerset

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Somerset on Rover is $53.54 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 6,389 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Somerset. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

95% of Somerset sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Somerset landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Somerset 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 Somerset.

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.

You and your Somerset 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.
