“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.”
“Can’t say enough about how great Debbi was with Buddy. Debbi’s warmth and love for animals was apparent from our first meeting. While we were away Debbi sent updates and pictures which was awesome! Do not have any hesitation in asking her to look after your pets. She is great!”
“We couldn’t have been more pleased with Yvette! Our Kirbie loves being with her and the environment she provides. Yvette sent us videos and photos with updates throughout the day. We have already booked our next session with her.”
“Eduardo took great care of my big personality dachshund! I needed last minute care and they were so quick and responsive. They sent photos during the stay and my pup had a great time! Will definitely use them in the future!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Harleny! She took amazing care of my dog, Saga, and treated her like one of her own. Saga received so many cuddles and had an absolutely great time while in her care. Harleny kept us updated throughout, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was incredibly accommodating when we needed to make some last minute changes. We’re so grateful for her kindness and flexibility she showed Saga. Highly recommend her!”
“Lenny was very warm and welcoming. She took good care of Oreo and kept me posted with daily activities with messages, pictures and videos. Oreo was very happy. Will definitely keep Oreo with Lenny again!”
About: I’ve volunteered and worked for the Blumig Kennel in East Brunswick for many years. Been around many animals! I also interned for a pet grooming business in Washington, and had the pleasure of attending dog shows. I’ve adopted many animals. Right now I only have a 9year old Havanese (male). Neutered. I know times get tough and would love to help care for pets. Plus my dog could use and always make new friends. I have a work from home job that is flexible with my hours. There is always time for pet care! I would accommodate any routine you need me to follow. I take my dog on walks everyday, we play and he is fed through out the day. Any instructions you have I would gladly follow for your fur baby.
“Pam is the best - elvis is happy every single time he’ goes to her house to board ….she’s very very good at communication and looking after his needs. We always go back to her.”
“Mohita was fabulous right from the meet and greet. She made sure My dog was totally comfortable at her place and that included the lovely dog coco. It was so great to see pictures and videos of my dog having fun on his own little vacation at her place. She took great care and was very supportive throughout my dogs stay. So glad to have found Mohita. 💕”
“Dhara and her family were friendly and caring hosts for our little man Mr. Darcy. That includes their pooch “Coco” who was playful and not territorial with a visiting doggie scampering around the house. Dhara sent plenty of updates and photos during Mr. Darcy’s visit as of an upcoming longer stay. The stay could not have gone better, and we’re very confident and comfortable leaving Mr. Darcy in the caring hands Dhara and her family going forward. Its clear that they’re “dog people” who care.”
About: I am a father of 2 & 4-legged kids and the go-to dogsitter for friends and family. I am reliable and my schedule is flexible. I am the primary caregiver of my son when he's not in school. The rest of my schedule is often flexible, especially with advance notice. Having been a dog owner for more than 10 years, I am skilled in head scritches and belly rubs, and am not scared of slobbery kisses or getting dog hair on my clothes.
“Oreo enjoyed his stay and made friends with their dog Bentley, this was his first time being away from home and it was such a good experience, I think he will want to go back 😂😉.”
“Excellent experience boarding with Whitney and Michael. Great communication making it very comfortable. Flight was delayed multiple times coming back to NJ and was over an hour after the pick up time frame before I made it to their house to pick up Ivy, but very understanding and accommodating. Will definitely be my first choice whenever I have to travel.”
“Elliot had a wonderful stay with Thana and Subangi who were very good hosts. We really appreciated the frequent photos being sent and it is clear that they are very much dog lovers. Would definitely recommend them.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Radwa O. and her wonderful family! She boarded my pup Stormi for 6 days, and from the moment I dropped her off, I had zero worries. Radwa went above and beyond to make sure Stormi felt loved, included, and completely at home. The updates she sent were thoughtful and showed just how much Stormi was being cared for like one of their own. A huge thank you to her sweet pups Diesel and Lyla for putting up with my little fireball. Stormi can be a lot, but they welcomed her with such patience and playfulness. And to her boys, thank you for letting Stormi crash your sleepover! It meant the world to know she was surrounded by such kindness and fun. Radwa and her family are truly lovely people and amazing sitters. Stormi came home happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with love. I would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat! — Chanell G.”
“By far this has been Jalisa has been my best sitter so far. She kept me up to date with my fur baby’s activities and took great care of my dog. So much so, that I nearly had to drag my baby out of there. I will definitely be back.”

Sindy is a wonderful sitter! This was my second time booking with her, and once again she took such great care of Frankie. I loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout the week, it really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Frankie always comes home clean, happy, and clearly well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
SIMPLY THE BEST. I was very apprehensive about leaving my dog while traveling for business. Since I work from home, we spend almost all of our time together, and I rarely have to leave her for extended periods. After moving back to New Jersey, my work travel increased significantly, which meant I had to find someone I could truly trust to care for her while I was away. I visited several boarding facilities and explored numerous options, but I just could not bring myself to leave her locked in a cage overnight. As a dog owner, I wanted more than basic care—I wanted her to be safe, comfortable, loved, and treated like part of a family. From the moment I met Lenny and her daughter, I knew they were different. They immediately put both me and my dog at ease. During my trip, they took exceptional care of her and treated her as if she were their own. One of the things I appreciated most was the constant communication. Lenny sent plenty of pictures and updates of her relaxing at home, enjoying walks, and having fun throughout the day. Seeing how happy and comfortable she was gave me tremendous peace of mind and allowed me to focus on my work without worrying about her well-being. When I picked her up, it was obvious she had been well cared for. She was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful experience. It is not easy to find someone who provides this level of personal attention, kindness, and genuine love for animals. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind sitter or doggy daycare, I would not hesitate to recommend Lenny and her daughter. Their professionalism, communication, and dedication are unmatched. They have completely changed the way I feel about leaving my dog while traveling, and I am incredibly grateful to have found them. They are, without question, the very best I have found, and I will continue to trust them with my dog whenever I need care in the future.
We left our 9 year old dog with Anu for an extended stay and are very pleased with the care she took of him. She provided him love and play and he soon settled in, becoming comfortable with her and her family. She kept us informed of his daly moods and routine, providing regular updates with pictures. She was also very quick and responsive to our queries. We highly recommend Anu and will definitely be using her services again.

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.
94% of Spotswood 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 Spotswood 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 Spotswood 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 Spotswood.
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 Spotswood 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.
