“Jenny and her husband are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! One of our pups got a little sick, and he they took every precaution to make sure he was okay. From calling the vet, sending us updates, and sleeping with him at night to make sure he was okay, they treated our dogs just like they were their own. They really put us at ease and we always know that our dogs are in good hands when they go to visit!”
“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.”
“5 stars all the way. This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and we couldn’t not be happier with the service and care we received. Our little Gunner has terrible anxiety and does not like to be alone ever since his sister passed away last year. Aivy took such good care of our Gunner. She was patient and kind and made sure she communicated with us on how Gunner was doing. We can’t thank her enough and look forward to using her again. Thank you for your patience with our old man.”
“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!”
“This is the first time my dogs stayed with Annette and Martin. We had a family wedding out of state, and Annette made me feel so comfortable the entire time! Drop off and pick up were both very easy. They have a beautiful backyard for the dogs to play in. Annette sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the weekend, which I loved. When I came to pick them up, my one dog hid under the table because he didn’t want to leave! Thank you Annette and Martin for being so good to Maverick and Lockett. :)”
“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.”

“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.”
“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!”
“Zoey had a wondefurful 5 night stay with David and Phyllis. Our very anxious pup made herself at home quickly and enjoyed all of the attention she got during her stay.

“Stephanie was absolutely amazing with Brody! We had a trip planned to Florida and ended up having to extend due to a snow, and she was so accommodating and flexible with the extra time we needed. It gave us such peace of mind during a stressful change of plans. She consistently provided updates and the sweetest photos and videos, which meant so much to us. Being able to see how happy and comfortable Brody was made it so much easier to be away. When we picked him up, he was as happy as if he had just spent the day at the dog park with all his friends, smiling, tail wagging, and clearly so well cared for. That says everything. 🐶 We’re so grateful for how attentive and loving she was with him. I would absolutely trust Stephanie with Brody again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 we’ve always been a dog family. Even now at the age I am we still have dogs we walk them, take them outside every couple hours and feed them twice a day I have a passion for animals. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I make time every day to feed pets, provide fresh water, take them on walks, play with them, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. Throughout the week, I keep a consistent schedule and can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra walks, medication, or sticking to their normal feeding schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my home or a client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. I provide updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for during their time away.

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!

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.
