“I have never had better place to leave my sweet Apollo, he had an excellent time! Kelsey & Conor were sending updates and images constantly. I would highly recommend them!”
“John and Michelle did a great job watching our little pups. They were responsive and friendly, and they walked our dogs frequently. Would definitely use 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.”
“My golden doodle, Anabelle spent a glorious week with Brijana recently! Brijana was terrific about handling the drop offs and pick ups with my husband, who was on pup duty in my absence. Anabelle is always thrilled to see Brijana, clearly is well taken care of, and adores being there. I can not say enough about the amazing care and consideration Brijana gives my little Fur Baby! I'm sure Anabelle is looking forward to her next playdate with Brijana with great anticipation!!”
“April was awesome with Harley! She sent many updates and photos. Harley looked, and was, relaxed and comfortable. Harley has Myasthenia Gravis and has a specific medication and food schedule, and April kept to the schedule perfectly. I highly recommend April to care for your furbaby!”
“Megan and David and the whole gang really took such good care of Tunes today! All of my interactions with Megan and family have been extremely positive - I really appreciate the responsiveness and the offer for a meet and greet last week! Thank you guys so much for hosting her and special shout out to Bonnie for being such a calm and kind big golden retriever sis :)”
“Zyiana was so great with my Miacchiato. Macchiato had lots of fun playing with her the whole day. I was running behind picking him up and Zyiana was so accomodating. I would definitely recommend her for other folks who need their pups watched!”
“I can't say enough nice things about Renee! This was my first time leaving Billie with a sitter and she made it such an awesome experience. She asked great questions to get to know Billie's needs and preferences and sent cute updates, even! What a huge difference from a kennel. Billie would be stressed and upset and wanted to be held when I would take her there, but when I picked up Billie from Renee's she seemed really happy!! Renee is a lovely person and a great sitter!”
“This was our second time having Monica and Conrad watch Heron, our 6 month old puppy. This couple is so wonderful, they send pics every evening and take great care of our puppy. Heron LOVES playing with Pongo. Thank you as we know our furry baby is well taken care of.”
“My girls had the best time they looked at home I was so worried about leaving them because I had never left them before but my heart was at peace with all the videos and pictures I received they were loved on and truly cared for and they will be returning. Ps THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING GOOD CARE OF MY GIRLS 💕”

I highly recommend him.Kovu apeared happy and active when we pick him up and that's one sign he had a great time.Thank you so much Hendry! Looking forward to leaving Kovu with you in our future trips!”
“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”
“Virginia was so sweet and took great care of Bogey! He can be nervous, and she went out of her way from the start to put him at ease. She took him for runs, played fetch in the backyard, and even let him sleep on the bed. I’m surprised he even wanted to come home after his stay. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
About: I have had dogs all of my 40 plus years on this planet. They are a blessing! I have been relied upon to watch dogs for about 25 years and have walked, bathed, fed them, etc... I currently own a chihuahua named Peanut. She is my world! I work from 9-5pm so I can do nights and weekends. I look forward to meeting your furry friends! They will be safe with me. I will keep your pet safe and sound while you are away. I will send lots of pictures too! I appreciate your business, and I look forward to meeting you.

Eliana was so easy to work with and made our dog Charlie feel comfortable. He gets really nervous in new places and she helped him eat by giving him chicken. She was flexible with pickup and drop-off times and was fast at responding to messages. We will definitely book with her again!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Dog Sitter! We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Christina! We had unexpectedly rescued our sweet girl, Gigi, just two weeks before a vacation we had already planned. We found ourselves in a stressful situation, scrambling to find someone we could trust to care for our new rescue, and she turned out to be an absolute blessing! From the moment we entrusted Gigi to her care, we felt reassured. Her home was so cozy, warm, and welcoming, with such a beautiful family atmosphere. Her husband, her two children, and she herself were all so involved, loving and wonderful with Gigi. It was clear that she was not just being watched, but truly welcomed into their home and treated like part of the family. One of our favorite things was receiving all the updates and pictures throughout the week. It gave us so much peace of mind to see Gigi happy, comfortable, and being loved while we were away. Knowing that our newly rescued girl was safe, well cared for, and surrounded by such a loving family meant the world to us. We are beyond grateful that she opened her home and her heart to Gigi, especially knowing that we had only had her for two weeks. Finding someone who genuinely cares about your pet and makes you feel completely comfortable leaving them in their care is priceless. We would absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and loving dog sitter. She went above and beyond. Gigi was happy, we were happy, and our hearts were at ease the entire week. Thank you for treating our girl like one of your own! ❤️🐾
As always, Brineydi did a great job of keeping our little fur babies well taken care of & us at ease while we were away. 5 stars isn’t enough! After letting us know that he was having a hard time keeping his food down, she made Alejandro a special home cooked meal to help with his stomach. He was back to his usual playful self in no time. So grateful we found her on Rover!
Denise kept our Duke for just over a week while we were away on vacation. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but Denise walked me through the whole process. She told me all about the process as she’s a pro and made time to meet Duke before our trip. While we were on our trip we got CONSTANT updates and immediate responses when reaching out to check on Duke. She paid close attention to his needs and made sure she immediately expressed any concerns she had with him which I very much appreciated. I wholeheartedly feel like my dog was cared for exactly how she cares for her own dog and I will say that is truly invaluable! I know she loved our Duke very much and we will absolutely be booking with Denise in the future. Thank you Denise for taking such good care of my baby!
We were very happy with the care Luna received! David was very thorough and incredibly professional during our meet & greet. He kept us updated with daily photos and updates. A bonus was he also picked up and dropped off! We recommend using David and absolutely will be booking again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Vernon is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $92 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,180 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Vernon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Vernon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Vernon home-away-from-home, 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 Vernon.
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 Vernon 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 , 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 .
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.
