“Eileen was great! She was able to take my reservation for a last minute vacation. She made sure to send me constant updates of my baby. She was attentive and extremely kind. I would definitely recommend!”
“John was such a great boarder for our Simon! We received regular updates along with photos during the 10 days we were gone. We could tell Simon had a great time and was sad to be leaving John when we picked him up. We'll definitely be using him again!”
“Adam was great! It was the first time we were away from our puppy over night and we were very nervous. He took great care of her and sent us videos everyday! Will definitely use him again:)”
“We had such a great experience with Suzie. She took amazing care of our dog, Buzzy, while we were away. From the start, communication was clear and reassuring. She sent updates and photos about how he was doing, which really put us at ease. We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter.”
“Alyssa was fabulous. Was flexible on meeting us before Teddys’s 3 night overstay. Kept us updated throughout and we could relax and enjoy our trip worry free.”
“Cedric was amazing! He already had a full dog setup at his place and was clearly very experienced in caring for dogs. He provided regular updates and was extremely responsive throughout the stay. My younger pup is a bit of a handful, but Cedric did a wonderful job ensuring he got plenty of walks and playtime. I 100% recommend him and would love to book him again!"”
“Gladys took care of our girl Luci very last minute and Luci had a great time with Gladys and Louis! She took them to the dog park and took them on plenty of walks together. Luci was well taken care of and we hope she can stay with Gladys again soon!”
“Stephan and his family are such great caretakers! Super communicative and easy to work with, shared tons of cute photos and Molly came home tired and happy. Will def be booking again. 😊✨”
“Tae is an excellent dog sitter! Our pup Loki has separation anxiety, but took to Tae quickly and seemed to settle in very nicely. Tae was great with communications, and sent frequent updates and pictures, so we were completely at ease while we were away. Thank you so much! We and Loki appreciate your care!”
“Aleksandr was a fantastic sitter for my two pups. He was easy to work with, communicative, and took great care of my dogs. Also - he is a fantastic photographer and took some amazing shots of the pups!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Michael! He was incredibly accommodating when we had to travel at the last minute and even kindly offered to pick up our dog and drop her back off, which made everything so much easier. He was super friendly, attentive, and kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout her stay. Our dog also had a fantastic time playing with his dog! In fact, when Michael dropped her off, she was actually trying to run after him as he was leaving, which says everything about how much she enjoyed her stay! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Michael with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Paloma was an excellent dog sitter for our Mia! She was reliable, thoughtful, and caring when it came to responding to us and sending pictures, videos and general updates daily. She went above and beyond when we were in a pinch to find a sitter and we would use her over and over again moving forward- highly recommend!”
“Brianna was great with our dog! She watched him for a week and sent daily photos/updates. Our dog doesn’t get along great with other dogs but Brianna was very accommodating to his needs. Will definitely book again with her in the future.”
“Ysabel was the most wonderful pet sitter our little Tommy has ever had the pleasure of staying with! It was truly a five-star vacation for him. Ysabel has such a natural way with animals, and it was clear from the very beginning that Tommy felt completely at home with her and was thoroughly spoiled! We received daily updates with plenty of photos and videos of Tommy being pampered, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious how much care, attention, and affection Ysabel gave him throughout his stay. I could not recommend Ysabel more highly and would absolutely trust her with Tommy again. Thank you so much, Ysabel, for taking such wonderful care of our little guy!”
“I am incredibly impressed and grateful for the amazing care Naomi gave my two dogs over the 9 days she watched them. This was my first time using a sitter, and I was especially nervous because one of my dogs has separation anxiety. Naomi handled everything so beautifully and made them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She has an amazing space for dogs, and you can genuinely tell how much she loves animals. She was so kind, patient, and answered all my questions without ever making me worry. I’m so grateful to Naomi and couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. I would 100%”
“Highly recommend! Murphy had the best time with Christian! I was super nervous leaving Murphy with someone he didn’t know for a few days, but as soon as I met Christian and his family, I felt instantly comfortable. They were so friendly and welcoming! Christian was awesome with communication — even before I dropped Murphy off, he answered all my questions and made the whole process easy. While I was away, he sent just the right amount of pics and videos of Murphy living his best life, which made me feel so much better. Picking him up was super easy too. Honestly, I can’t recommend Christian enough — will definitely be booking with him again!”

It is so grateful to meet Chulmin. My fur baby, Raon is very shy and spoiled; however, Chulmin takes care of him very very well. My boy looks so happy and comfort to stay. You do not need to worry about it at all. Chulmin keeps updating and sending pics and videos, so you could know how Raon is doing well. Thanks you so much. I will ask again!!!!!
Andrew continues to be my #1 choice for boarding for my dog. Andrew does a great job keeping the dogs active, fostering safe and appropriate socializing between the jobs and reinforcing (and improving) their training. My dog always enjoys his stay at Andrew’s and we really appreciate his attentiveness and care for the dogs.
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my little Zara! Sandra went above and beyond in every possible way, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. From daily photos and updates to thoughtful messages throughout the day, Sandra made sure I always knew how Zara was doing. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. What really stood out to me was how genuinely involved Sandra is with the dogs. She doesn’t just watch them—she interacts with them, pays attention to their individual needs, and treats them like her own. She even made sure Zara stayed warm when I completely forgot to pack her a jacket! It’s those little thoughtful gestures that make all the difference. And then there’s sweet Penelope! Zara is my little sassy girl who typically has absolutely no interest in socializing with other dogs, so imagine my surprise when she and Penelope got along so beautifully! I was genuinely amazed, and seeing their little friendship develop was such a treat. What touched me even more was that Sandra reached out after I picked Zara up just to tell me how much she missed her. That alone speaks volumes about the genuine love and connection she builds with the dogs in her care. Sandra is truly a gem, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. She made being away from Zara so much easier, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave my little girl with her again. Thank you, Sandra and Penelope, for loving and taking such wonderful care of my sassy little Zara! ❤️🐾
Catherine is the absolute best! She is super communicative, easy to reach, and I’ve had seamless booking experiences with her. She is also super understanding! I had flight delays that resulted in me needing a later pick up time at the last minute and she was super accommodating. My dog Jax loves her and Cashew. 10/10 recommend Catherine and I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!
Sherrie was wonderful! She’s excellent with routine. She asked all the right questions, followed all instructions, and is a true animal lover. We wanted a mature and responsible caregiver and after our meet & greet we were positive we found The One. After seeing Sherrie with her own sweet dog, we could tell how committed and wonderful she is as a pet owner. Thank you so much to Sherrie and her finance. ❤️ They made our trip worry free and we will book again.
We had a great experience all around with our booking with Lisa. Her accommodation to provide a safe and welcoming home for our dog was more than satisfactory! She is a professional. I am hyper vigilant when it comes to my dog, and Lisa addressed and reassured me of my every concern. There was an immediate connection between our dog, Lisa, and her family. I highly recommend Lisa for the excellent service that she provides!
Christine is great and very caring for my fur baby. She paid attention to Furball’s food and exercises. She also sent tons of great pictures and updates during the stay. Furball had a great time and made new friends. Very happy and I trust her to sit Furball in the future. Thank you Christine

The average cost of Pet Boarding in South Hackensack is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $78 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 14,555 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in South Hackensack. About 88% of South Hackensack 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.
