“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Jenny was wonderful with my dog Coco. This is the second time she’s taken care of him, and every time I pick him up, he’s happy and relaxed. She always sends me pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It really feels like Coco is at home with her, and that means everything to me. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gives him.”
“I appreciate Samantha’s diligence in dealing with our last minute dilemmas. Spencer seemed to have had a lovely visit with her & Coco. He appeared happy & at ease in the pics she shared. I would certainly recommend her as a sitter of the highest quality…”
“Thank you Kathleen for taking such great care of Eddie! I know the booking was last minute and I appreciate your flexibility. I look forward to having you care for him again in the future.”
“Craig took exceptional care of our dog for an overnight stay. He was incredibly communicative and flexible, and instilled confidence that he was on top of everything and our pup was in good hands. There were also plenty of walks and playtime to keep him busy. Highly recommend using Craig if you’re down the shore.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Ivelisse! She took such amazing care of Omen while I was away. She was kind, patient, and genuinely loved animals. She was so attentive to his needs, gave him lots of love and playtime, and even went out of her way to feed him when he ran out of food, something I truly appreciated. I felt completely at peace knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and caring with pets!”
“Anwar was so great with my Pit mix and you could tell his love for animals the moment you meet him. My dog seems like he really enjoyed his stay and I am so grateful to have someone like Anwar to trust and take care of my pit while I was away.”
“Swapna was very good with Kayce. She showed us her home and we were to see when Kayce would play. She kept us informed during our time away with texts and pictures. We will be using her services again soon.”
“Melissa & Dan took great care of Bowser and were very understanding of his nervousness when a storm came through. They kept me updated on Bowser throughout his stay, and Bowser played well with their dogs. I highly recommend using them!”
“Angela and her family took excellent care of our little dog for 7 days. She was sending daily photo updates and she was always very responsive. I would book her services again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my special-needs pup, Dottie, for 8 years. She’s on a strict diet and takes meds too, so I’m good with following precise instructions. I have a loving and serene home where Dottie and I can welcome your pup. I work from home on Fridays, so I am available for boarding for long weekends. We could coordinate a Thursday evening drop-off if need be. On the weekends, I go to a pilates class and run errands, but am otherwise around as company for the dogs. My yard is only partially fenced, so I will be taking the dogs on leashed walks. Dottie sleeps in bed with me, so it’s okay if your pup needs to as well. If your dog is crate-trained, that is okay too.
“Karen and her husband embraced our Luna with so much love! She is an older dog and adjusted %100 to the new environment and other dogs. We are so grateful for the comfort it gave Luna and us as well! Thanks so much.”
“Our pooch had a wonderful time hanging out at Steven's house. There is a lot of indoor space and a fenced yard to play in, and other doggy friends. Steven sent us photos every day of all the fun. Steven was very easy to communicate with and perfectly accommodated our schedule. We are so happy to have found such a wonderful situation so close to our home in Hopewell.”
“Kathleen was absolutely exceptional. From our initial meeting to the pick of my pups she was communicative, attentive and treated my pups like gold! I’m so grateful so have found her and highly recommend her for your future services!”
“We’ve booked with Kyla before, and she continues to go above and beyond every time. Leo stayed with another dog during this visit, and she made sure everyone was comfortable and got along great. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and puts in the extra effort to make them feel safe and loved. Leo came home happy and tired from all the fun. We couldn’t recommend Kyla more and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We knew from the moment Maggie stepped foot inside Meghan’s home that she felt safe and loved. I was amazed at the number of photos and updates that greeted me everyday. Maggie looked super happy and comfortable. Meghan is not only the ultimate puppy sitter; she’s a compassionate soul. I couldn’t imagine leaving Maggie with anyone else.”
“Absolutely amazing! Sent updates about Skye and accommodated so much for her! Got her new toys and made sure she was so comfortable :) He was an incredible sitter and loves dogs truly!”
“Elias was wonderful! He was able to watch Bella on short notice, took great care of her and sent updates while I was away! Very flexible on drop off and pickup. Thank you Elias and family!”

Thank you so much for your love and support for Poppy. She has been pampered by you guys. Thanks for all the regular updates and also accommodating us to change the schedule as needed due to unforseen events. We really cherish this and feel at peace that she is in safe hands.
We were so happy to meet Karly and her wonderful family! They took exceptional care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay by sending us regular photos and videos. It was obvious from every update that our dog was incredibly happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Karly and her family are kind, responsible, and truly love animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such great hands. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters!
My hubby is working in the area. I flew in from GA to visit him, so that we could drive to Canada to celebrate our 10th anniversary. He travels with our dog and we needed a safe home away from home while we travel. Ivelisse was great with our fur baby! Love had just been diagnosed with a UTI and she was very attentive, even giving us helpful recommendations on how to prevent further ones. She sent regular updates and we could tell that Love enjoyed the stay as well. We are thankful that Ivelisse was able to accommodate us on such short notice. Thanks for treating our dog like family! We definitely recommend her and would use her again!
Lauren W. was absolutely amazing with our dog, Rocco, during his 7-night stay. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats every pet as if they were her own. Lauren was friendly, kind, attentive, and wonderful to work with throughout the entire experience. She gave us peace of mind knowing Rocco was in caring and capable hands. Her dedication to putting pets first truly shows in everything she does. When we picked Rocco up, it was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and comfortable during his stay. Finding someone you can trust with a beloved family member is priceless, and Lauren exceeded all of our expectations. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, I cannot recommend Lauren W. highly enough. Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of Rocco!
We had an amazing experience with Andrea! She was absolutely wonderful with our dog, and it was clear from the start that he felt comfortable and happy with her. She and her family treated him like he was truly part of the crew, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent pictures throughout the day, and in every single one he looked relaxed, loved, and having a great time. I couldn't have asked for better care. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in the area and can't wait to have my dog stay with her again! Thanks, Andrea!!! 🫶

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Trenton on Rover is $58.28 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 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 September 2026, there are 3,069 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Trenton. 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.
93% of Trenton 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 Trenton 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 Trenton 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 Trenton.
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 Trenton 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.
