“Couldn’t be happier with the care Bean received while we were away! Bean is a senior dog who requires daily medications and a little extra attention, and Lisa took care of her with so much compassion and professionalism. She kept me updated every day, which gave me total peace of mind while we were on vacation. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!”

“Nadine & Tom were fantastic caretakers for our dog, Ellie. This was our first time using someone outside of family to watch her, so we were a bit nervous, but we couldn’t have been more thrilled with the experience. We were looking for someone warm and attentive who would give Ellie personalized care, and that’s exactly what we found with Nadine and Tom. Ellie can be anxious around other dogs, so it meant so much to us that she was able to stay with Nadine and Tom one-on-one. They truly made her feel comfortable and at home. We especially appreciated the daily photos and thoughtful updates, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend Nadine & Tom and would absolutely book with them again.”

“Bonnie took amazing care of our yorkie Spike for 4nights. She and her husband scheduled a meet and greet where they had an initial interaction with Spike and talked to us about his needs/routine. Due to pancreas’s issues he is on a strict diet and likes to drink a lot of water. Bonnie accommodated this without issue, adjusted to Spikes routine, and gave him frequent potty breaks. She sent us pictures and videos multiple times a day, which I loved 🥰. We could tell he was comfortable by the images and when we returned to pick him up, could see that he was well taken care of and happy. Will definitely rebook again- Thank you Bonnie and family for taking such great care of Spike!!”

“The best rover ever! My boyfriend and I were going on vacation for the first time since getting our shiba inu so we were very hesitant at who we’d get to watch our pup, but once we met Nicole all our worries went away. She would send daily updates via photo/ video along with nightly “report cards” that detailed Sadie’s day and was the cutest thing ever. We never worried about Sadie during our week long trip and Nicole did her absolute best to make sure Sadie was comfortable. 5/5 and will return to her!”

“This is the 2nd time we left our furry baby with Carmela (for two weeks this time) It is like dropping Buddy off at a friend’s house. She is wonderful. She sent us photos and kept us updated on how he is doing. If he was not eating properly, she checked on what she could do to make him eat. Her dog also easily gets along with other dogs.”

About: Welcome! Dogs have been a central and cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having owned and cared for a wide variety of pets throughout my life—including dogs, cats, and birds, I have a deep, practical understanding of animal behavior, comfort, and routine. Our family treats every guest dog in our home like one of our own. We currently share our space with our sweet, easygoing 10-year-old beagle who loves having quiet companionship around the house and enjoys welcoming new furry friends. As a stay-at-home mom, my daily routine centers around our home, making pet care a natural and dedicated part of my day. Your pup will receive attentive care, frequent interaction, indoor playtime, and cozy rest spots in a warm family environment. My schedule allows me to easily accommodate feeding routines, regular potty breaks, and detailed medication schedules—including oral or topical treatments for seniors or dogs needing extra care. Services & Daily Activities Offered: Boarding & Daycare: Complete, attentive care in a safe, quiet home environment. Leashed Walks & Outdoor Time: While we have an unfenced yard, safety is my absolute top priority. I provide frequent, leashed outdoor potty breaks and regular walks around the neighborhood to keep your dog active and engaged. Specialized Care: Full comfort with senior dogs, gentle routines, and precise medication administration. Regular Updates: Daily photo and text check-ins so you always have total peace of mind while you are away. To ensure a safe, comfortable fit for all parties involved, I require a quick Meet & Greet prior to confirming any booking and that all guest dogs be crate-trained and comfortable resting in a crate. Whether your dog needs an energetic neighborhood walk, gentle senior care, or simply a warm, loving space to relax, I look forward to providing a true home away from home! I am home full-time, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. My days are centered around the home, allowing me to give guest dogs constant supervision, timely medication, frequent potty breaks, and regular neighborhood walks. Your dog will be integrated into our calm, loving daily flow with ease. Outdoor Safety: Because our yard is unfenced, safety is my highest priority. Guest dogs are always kept on a secure leash during potty breaks and neighborhood walks. I never leave dogs unattended outdoors. Home & Supervision: I am home full-time, so guest dogs enjoy constant supervision, gentle indoor playtime, and cozy spots to rest. Our 10-year-old beagle is very calm and easygoing, providing a relaxed atmosphere for visitors. Personalized & Attentive Care: I closely follow every owner’s instructions for feeding, daily schedules, and medication administration. I keep our home calm, clean, and dog-proofed at all times. Clear Communication: I send daily photo updates and quick check-ins so you always know how your pup is doing and can have complete peace of mind while you're away.

“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”

“Heather and her family were so sweet with my Buzz! I’ve had the same dog sitter for years, so I was nervous when I suddenly needed to find someone new. From the start, they were incredibly kind, caring, and attentive with him, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to truly enjoy my trip. They also have an amazing backyard where Buzz could run around, play, and make himself at home. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Heather and will absolutely be using her again!”

Isabella was amazing from the moment we met until I picked up my pup 🐶 ❤️. She was very sweet and asked all the right questions to ensure Sky was comfortable and happy during his stay. She also sent lots of pictures! I felt so at ease knowing that he was in great hands. The yard is beautiful 😍 so many places to run and discover. Will definitely be booking with Isabella in the future, thank you!

Kayla and Vanessa were wonderful hosts for our dog Cusco! They are super sweet and welcoming, and have lots of experience. They sent us cute photos the entire stay and Cusco looked very happy. Communication was topnotch--thorough and transparent. They really took the time to get to know Cusco's needs/schedule/personality. Peace of mind is priceless when it comes to care for our furry ones, and we definitely had that. 100% would rebook with them. Thank you ladies!!

Could not recommend nor say enough nice things about Caren. Our dog Bailey stayed with her — she went above and beyond to make us and Bailey comfortable prior to the stay, and during sent updates daily with photos and assured Baileys comfort. We also had a family emergency during the stay and Caren was so sweet and accommodating. Would certainly recommend to anyone, and will be staying again in the future. Thanks Caren!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Summit

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Summit on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of September 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 14,056 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Summit. About 88% of Summit 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.
