Leslie did a wonderful job watching our two small dogs (a mini-poodle and a bichon) for a nine-day vacation. She followed all our detailed requests (about food, etc), kept in frequent contact, and sent us lots of pictures. It was pretty clear that our dogs were well-pampered during their stay, and possibly did not want to leave! We will use Leslie again unhesitatingly in the future.

I had a really great experience boarding Leo at Bhavani’s home! From the moment I sent her a request for boarding, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani has a calm, nurturing energy and a true love for animals that shows in everything she does. Her home is set up perfectly for dogs—safe, clean, and full of cozy spots and open space for play. It’s such a comforting alternative to a traditional kennel. My dog settled in quickly and was treated like a part of her family the entire time. What really stood out was the personal attention Bhavani gave. She took the time to understand my dog’s routines and personality, and she kept me updated with sweet messages and photos during the stay. It meant the world to know he was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so grateful we found Bhavani and wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a home-based, heart-centered boarding experience!

Yvette is the BEST. She truly cares about your pup just like her own. This is my second time having her watch my dog and she will be the only person I send my dog to. She goes above and beyond and loves your pet like her own. She even sewed up his toy that he chewed up!! Thank you so so much for everything!!

They provided updates and pictures often which lessened our anxiety. I would definitely recommend them to any one looking for loving pet care takers.

Bonnie and her wonderful family took great care of our Leo while we were on vacation. They followed his usual routine to ensure he was comfortable in a new setting. It took Leo a few days to adjust but after that he was his usual playful and relaxed self with them. Bonnie also provided timely updates and pictures of Leo so we had no worries while we were away. We would happily have them take care of Leo again!

We had a wonderful experience with KAJAL D. From the start, communication was clear and prompt, which gave us peace of mind while leaving our dog in their care. They were reliable, attentive, and made sure to follow all of our instructions perfectly. Our dog was happy, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed the extra attention. We also appreciated the regular video call, updates and photos—they made us feel connected even while we were away. I would highly recommend KALAL D. to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!

Luciana was amazing with Bourbon! She took such great care of him, especially considering I needed a sitter at the last minute. She was incredibly accommodating and kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Bourbon is a puppy with a ton of energy, and she handled him so well. I could tell he was happy, well cared for, and getting all the attention he needed. I would 100% recommend Luciana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. She is truly amazing!

About: Dear Future Client, Thank you for considering me to care for your cherished dog! I know how important it is to find someone who will truly love your pet while you're away. For me, dog sitting isn't a job, it's a passion. I've been a lifelong family animal lover, and when your dog stays with us, they become a member of my family. While I love all dogs, I offer special focus and patience for pets with unique needs: Senior Care: I have specific experience administering oral medications and providing gentle, low-impact care for our wise senior dogs. I ensure they have a calm, quiet, and comfortable environment for their achy joints. Puppy: If you have a puppy, I will reinforcing your rules, maintain consistent crate training and stick your potty schedule to ensure they feel confortable and secure. Be sure that my home is completely dog-proofed, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. I will complete your dog's exact feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule. You'll receive every morning and evening a detailed update with multiple photos and videos (if you request) so you never have to wonder how your baby is doing. I look forward to meeting you and earning your trust. Let's schedule a Meet & Greet soon so you can see where your dog will enjoy their happy stay! Warmly, Rodger (Your Dog's Second Best friend) Caring for your dog is the central focus of my day, guaranteed!. Your pet's needs are never missed because my schedule ensures continuous supervision. First potty break, feeding (per schedule), and gentle morning play. Long exercise walk (30-45 mins), dedicated playtime, and midday potty breaks. This is when I focus on reinforcing puppy training or providing calm senior monitoring Dinner (per schedule), extended backyard/safe area access, and focused attention during family time. "Rodger Report" sent with photos/updates. Last potty break, secured sleeping area, and medication administration (if needed). I believe trust is built through transparency. You will receive the "Rodger Report" (a detailed summary with photos/videos) multiple times daily, confirming their safety, happiness, and adherence to their specific schedule.

Lineth was a great sitter! Our dog, Loki, is great but can definitely be challenging, so we’re always a little nervous leaving him, especially with someone new and for a longer stay. He was with Lineth for two weeks and seemed very happy and comfortable with her. She had great communication throughout his stay and sent us lots of updates, which we really appreciated and helped put us at ease. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Lineth watch Loki 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.

FAQs for Boarding - Somerset

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Somerset on Rover is $54.77 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 6,526 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Somerset. About 89% of Somerset 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.
