“Jenny and family were amazing. They gave my very senior boy so much love, attention, and expert care. He got the royal treatment! Communication was great and got many wonderful updates and pictures throughout. Her space was perfect to host pups with gates and dog steps. Would 100% recommend and book again.”
“Anjaliben was a great host for our fur baby. We dropped off Our pup and her and her son took good care of Buddy. She fed him and played with him and sent pictures of her dogs playing with ours. We will definitely be calling on Anjaliben to watch our pup again.”
“Aivy was amazing! I can’t say enough positive things. She took the best care of Herbie to the point I didn’t think he was going to want to come home. She sent tons of pictures and loved on him like he was her own.”
“I would recommend John and Michelle to anyone looking to board their dog for any period of time. My dog can be anxious and they went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable. They were immediately responsive when I reached out and provided fun updates throughout her stay. I look forward to using them in the future.”
“Kelsey and Conor took great care of Rosie! Kelsey was so nice to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Her dogs were so friendly and greeted Rosie so kindly right away! I would definitely book with Kelsey and Conor again. They made me feel like my dog was one of their own!”
“Annette and Martin were perfect. Scrappy felt so comfortable in their house during the meet & greet that he just laid down and snoozed while we chatted. Scrappy instantly liked them both and even bared his tummy to Martin for lots of petting. The daily photos and videos in their Facebook page was the best antidote to ease my mind. It was nice to see the dogs playing around their huge backyard. It was also nice to see that the dogs were allowed free range to most of their house. I highly recommend them!”
“Did a great job to make my dogs feel comfortable and at home. One is kinda skiddish but he warmed up immediately. Would recommend to others and book again for sure.”
“David did a wonderful job watching my pup! He sent pictures of her everyday along with updates. She seemed very happy when we saw her afterwards. I’d trust him with her again!”
“Alison was wonderful! I feel confident that my pup was treated like family and was comfortable and loved the entire time we were away. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“Took care of my dog perfectly and wrote a letter pretending it was my dog telling me what he did when he was with her. Would recommend to anyone looking to have their pet watched.”
“Since this was a new location and person for Louie, I was a little apprehensive. After meeting Adrienne and her daughter, I knew he would be fine. They loved him and he even played with one of their dogs. I won't hesitate to use her again!”
“I can’t thank Stephanie enough for the amazing care she provided for my dog, Oreo. He’s a very picky and spoiled pup, but Stephanie was incredibly attentive to all of his needs. From the moment I dropped him off, I had a good feeling—especially knowing her daughter and Oreo would become instant besties (and they did!). Leaving your pet behind is never easy, but Stephanie made the process so much smoother with her warmth, responsibility, and genuine love for animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to watch their pet in the area. Thank you again, Stephanie—you truly gave me peace of mind and Oreo a second home! 🐶❤️”
“Dave and Phyllis are very attentive and caring. I know my baby is getting babied when he is with them, and they are flexible and accommodating. They alerted me that my dog’s allergies had begun to merit medical attention when I came to pick him up.”
“Danielle was great! She was very attentive to our dog Dylan, who stayed with her and her two pups for three nights, and Dylan got along with her dogs--Gunner and Ruby--swimmingly. She gave him his meds on schedule and took him for walks. She also greeted us outside when we arrived and invited us in, which was much appreciated. Oh, and she sent multiple pictures Dylan each day. We will use Danielle again.”
“Just wanted to say thank you so much for taking Sadie for the night she must of had a great time because she’s been passed out all day ! It truly is a wonderful you did so she didn’t get stressed out with so many people at our house and saved me from her eating things she’s not allowed to !! I will definitely contact you in the future for further companionship for her !!”
“Brineydi is wonderful, fabulous, caring with a safe and secure home location for your pet. In my case Brineydi cared for my older dog for one month while we vacationed. She took such loving care of my boy that I was able to enjoy myself without worries. I wholeheartedly recommend her for your pet.”
“I had to leave my dog Leroy with Aubrey for a few days in September, and was very pleased with the care she provided. She has a spacious home with a fenced-in back yard for dogs to run around. Her Border Collie Ollie seems to intuitively understand how to get along with other dogs, and was a very nice companion for Leroy's stay. I would definitely rebook with Aubrey.”
“So happy I found this website and Jayanna! She did an amazing job and made my dog feel comfortable, even though she was very nervous around the other dogs at first. Jayanna was patient and caring. She sent us photos and videos throughout the stay without us even having to ask, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating, especially since our booking request was made only two hours in advance. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“It was our first time booking this sitter and she was absolutely amazing. She sent me lots of pictures of my dog 🐶 and updates on how she’s doing. She was very quick in responding to my messages and very kind. My girl 🐕 came home the happiest. She had her best time there. I have rebooked this sitter for next month and will 💯 book her again in the near future. Can’t wait for my girl 🐕 go on another staycation at this sitter’s place. Cannot recommend enough. ❤️”
“Many heartfelt thanks for taking care of our pup for the weekend! Gina was responsive and understanding and kept me updated to make me feel at ease even though my little guy is 4 years old. I knew he was in the care of someone who is genuine. Her family was super friendly also! Thanks so so much!!”

Melissa was amazing! She boarded my dogs for a few days, and the entire process was easy, straightforward, and stress-free from start to finish. She was kind, friendly, and clearly cared about making sure my dogs were comfortable and well taken care of. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
Giving a 5 star review. She was amazing. It was my Lola girl first time ever staying with anybody I glad I picked her to keep Lola. She was so sweet and kept me informed about Lola even sent pictures. Made me feel very good about leaving her for a few days. Thank you so much I really appreciate everything you guys did ❤️❤️
Our dogs had an amazing time at Danielle’s place! She sent frequent updates so I felt totally confident they were in great hands. Both pups felt so comfortable with her — a testament to her patience and kindness as a home away from home!!! I would absolutely LOVE to book with her again!!
Aivy was absolutely wonderful. We were so grateful to have found her when we needed care on short notice, and she graciously allowed us to extend a day when we needed it. She was kind, attentive, communicated well, and sent great pictures. Ollie came home happy and healthy. We would love to have Ollie stay with her again and highly recommend her!
Katie was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! She was kind, friendly, and took such great care of her. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Pepper was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciated Katie’s communication and attention to detail. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Would trust Amber with June again in a heartbeat! June is a recent shelter rescue, so I was nervous about leaving her with someone new, but I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She took wonderful care of June the whole time, sent updates and photos so I never had to worry, and clearly put in the effort to help June feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. You can tell she’s more of a dog person than a people person, but in the best way possible because June warmed up to her fairly quickly and seemed so relaxed and happy to stay with Amber. June got along great with her animals. Great communication from start to finish, and she gave so much love to my girl.
I can’t stress enough how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your fur baby with someone when you’re on vacation. That being said Jenny and her family took such good care of my puppy Teddy. When I saw the pics each day I could see the love she gives to her fur clients. I had a nice vacation knowing he was living his best life with Jenny. I highly recommend if you need a like home environment Jenny will not let you down. I definitely will only use Jenny in the future. Thanks Jenny Teddy will miss you💙
Probably our fourth stay with Annette and Martin. They are fantastic! Our very active, friendly spaniel loves them and we get pictures and reels that show us just how comfortable and happy he is. Pretty sure he gets so much attention he thinks he's on vacation. I can't see why would use anyone else.
Dana was Odin’s first time staying overnight somewhere that wasn’t home; and he LOVED it. He was obviously well cared for and tended to while we were gone. Dana sent an abundance of pictures and videos of him to keep us updated. Dana’s family, house and yard is well suited for dogs of all ages and sizes.
Marcus and Nicki are such a sweet couple and cared for Kyrie very well. I was particularly grateful because the request was a bit last minute, but they were so understanding. It was clear they had a lot of experience with dogs and knew how to care for our very anxious Kyrie 🥹 They had great communication and sent cute images of her over the weekend. I’m thankful our dog was in capable and caring hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stratford on Rover is $49.95 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 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 August 2026, there are 3,024 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stratford. 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 Stratford 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 Stratford 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 Stratford 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 Stratford.
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 Stratford 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.
