“Jinghong is a very caring sitter. My dog Bacon fell in love with her starting from meet and greet. Bacon was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. It was obvious he was happy and comfortable during his stay. Thank you for treating him with such care—I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to others!”
“Dan took good care of my dog. She’s normally nervous, but I can tell that she was at ease when I picked her up. He also went out of his way to do a meet and greet before dropping her off, so she is more familiar with him and at ease.”
“Teddy loves coming here. He can’t wait to get out of the car when we get close and never wants to get in the car when I pick him up lol. I know Rocío takes very good care of him when I’m working! He gets to play in the yard and rests inside.”
“My puppy Sonic and I are so lucky to have found someone as reliable and trustworthy as Evelyn. I got many videos of Sonic throughout the day and he was just having a blast. I will be booking again. Thank you Evelyn !”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, with three cats and dogs always being a big part of my family. Over the years, my family has owned dogs both big and small, including a German Shepherd and a Cavapoo, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also cared for pets at every stage of life, including playful puppies and kittens as well as seniors who need medication and extra patience. Through caring for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine and helping them feel safe and comfortable in a new environment while their family is away. I work from home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention throughout the day while keeping your pet’s schedule as consistent as possible. I live in a two-bedroom with a fenced-in yard and space to relax and play. I’m also active and happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention during their stay! 🐾 Working from home allows pet care to easily fit into my everyday routine. I have the flexibility for regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I have a quiet, comfortable two-bedroom with a fully fenced-in yard and plenty of space for your pet to relax and feel at home. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I am happy to adjust the care to what makes them feel most comfortable. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away.
“Excellent communication throughout the day. I was stuck in London and her photos provide throughout the day gave me 100.% confidence that Millie was being well cared for in my absence. She went above and beyond. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Chulmin, Hoyjin and Molly have been so great and trustworthy looking after my little gomi as if it’s their own. They are so accommodating and flexible to my crazy schedule and I am just so grateful to have found them especially as this was my first time using rover.”
“Ruth was awesome for Luna! I have a puppy that has a lot of energy and Ruth was so sweet with her. Such a caring a loving person. She sent me pictures and updates. Thank you so much Ruth!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and other pets growing up my whole life, and always watched out for my siblings dogs as much as if they were mine. I love dogs and it’s super natural caring for them for me. I'm nurturing and I love dogs! I’m currently working from home so I’ll always be home and available for their needs. I’m available for boarding on weekends anytime and weekdays also. I have a huge fully fenced private backyard, they can always release energy and play outside as well, comfortably. Dogs love my backyard to run around in and love playing catch.
“Bori had a great time with Maria! She looked comfortable immediately, played fetch, went potty, and took a nap all within a few hours. Maria was very communicative and flexible and took great care of Bori. I will definitely be entrusting Bori with her again!”
“Cinthia was amazing with Koda. She was very communicative and provided regular updates throughout the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching my dog and knowing he was in good hands. Would totally recommend leveraging cinthia if you have the opportunity.”
About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old, from Standard Poodle’s, to Shih tzu’s, to Boxer/Bulldogs! I have tons of experience with pups of all sizes. At the moment, I have to amazing dogsLouie and Lennon. Louie is a Retriever/Setter mix and Lennon and is Coonhound, both rescues. I have had Louie from 8 weeks old and am a pro with puppies and older dogs alike. Before my two loves, I had a Boxer/Bulldog mix Hudson. She was the epitome of a “gentle giant”. I know it sounds cliche, but large of small, I really do love every single one of them! I am currently working Freelance and am able to adjust my schedule as needed to provide the best care for your pups. I also love to run and love to friends come with me! I have a fenced in yard and two super friendly pups at home. If needed I can use a crate for your (or my!) pups if needed. Whatever matches the level of care they receive at home.
“Highly recommended! 🌟 I booked Yubelkis last minute, and she was thankfully available. She took care of my baby for 4 days, and we stayed in constant communication. She sent me lots of pictures and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. My pup also had plenty of friends to play with and looked so happy the entire time. I’ll definitely book with her again! 🐾💖”
“It’s been a while since Jax has socialized with other dogs, and Edelann was very patient with him. Appreciated all the photos and videos, and it looked like Jax had the best time meeting new friends and playing in the spacious yard. Will definitely book again soon!”
“Catherine is a great pet sitter! Sends out updates and the communication was great! Definitely recommend to anyone! She was the best and Thor loved spending time with her ☺️”
“I was so happy with the in-home daycare service provided by Claudia. This was my first time using the Rover app and I am very protective of my pup so I was apprehensive but also needed a place for him to go for the day since I just got off a long night shift and needed to sleep. Claudia was able to accommodate me last minute and also answered all my questions which immediately put me at ease. When I dropped him off, I had a feeling he would be in good hands. Claudia sent regular video and picture updates through the day which was much appreciated. When I picked him up, I could tell he had a fun day and that she treated my boy as if he was her own. Thank you Claudia!”
“Kiky was an excellent sitter. She communicated very well and provided frequent updates including very cute pictures of our dog Honey. She was also extremely accommodating and flexible with our schedule which worked out great. We truly appreciate the thoughtful attention she gave to Honey, and we would absolutely love to have her watch Honey again. I highly recommend Kiky!”

Christina has been taking care of Reggie for almost a year, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her. She treats Reggie like one of her own, with such genuine care and affection. She is always accommodating and works around my schedule, which has been such a huge help. Even her husband, John, kindly helps us with Reggie whenever Christina needs to step out for a short errand. Christina takes Reggie on walks, and she has helped us with both daycare and boarding. She is truly amazing, and we honestly don’t know what we would have done without her. We are so thankful to Christina and her family for all the love and support they’ve given Reggie and our family. Thank you, Christina, for everything!
Kinjal was the warmest spirit and took such great care of Saint! Her dog, Dollar, was absolutely adorable and the perfect playmate for my energetic puppy. Saint was so happy spending the day with them, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such loving hands. I would definitely book with Kinjal again!
Ashley was absolutely amazing with my puppy Chase! 🐾❤️ This was my second time having Ashley watch him, and I honestly couldn’t be happier to have found someone I trust so much with him. I don’t trust just anyone with Chase, so I was extremely nervous the first time I left him. But Ashley immediately made me feel so at ease and reassured me that he was in good hands. After that first experience, I knew I could trust her, which is why I felt completely comfortable going back to her again. She has such an amazing personality, and you can genuinely tell that she loves animals and truly cares about the dogs she watches. She was incredibly communicative, kept me updated during meal times, sent me lots of pictures, and always responded so quickly whenever I reached out. She was also extremely patient, caring, and careful with Chase, especially because he can sometimes have accidents. She handled everything with such understanding and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was being well taken care of. It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby, and Ashley is definitely that person for me. She gave me so much peace of mind, and I’m so grateful I found her. I highly recommend Ashley and will absolutely be going back to her again! 🐶💕
Xunzi was very flexible and accommodating, even accepting our last-minute booking and adjusting to our schedule without any issues. Bacon was a little nervous on his first day, but she was so patient and understanding. She paid close attention to his emotions and made sure he felt comfortable and settled in. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She is someone we can truly trust with Bacon, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
This was our dog's first time staying with Kathryn, and it was a great experience! Kathryn was super responsive, flexible with timing, and incredibly understanding when our travel was significantly delayed. We really appreciated her flexibility and care. Would definitely recommend!
Paloma was very responsive and always updated on how Ace was doing with the other little fur babies (he can be a handful at times). She even used her time with him to train him on basic commands. Overall very happy with how she babied my baby boy 🩷 will be going back!!
My dog sitter cancelled last minute before a friends wedding, Kat was able to take my dog in on an hours notice. Kat provided pictures/updates through out the stay, and was exceptionally accommodating to the last minute booking. I highly recommend Kat for your pet sitting needs.
Danny (and Rebecca) showed much patience when I called. He answered my questions, even if I repeated (I'm older and sometimes forget). He reassured me when I asked what his daily dog schedule is When I made inquiry with concern about Meshy's foibles, he was direct, informative. He did not personalize as a question of his ability, but understood questions as a concern about dog behavior. When we setup MEET & GREET, he introduced dogs, 1 at a time, giving Meshy and his dogs, a chance to meet without being overwhelmed. He remained approachable, but let Meshy approach him in his own time. I found Danny to be alert and perceptive to dogs, patient with my concerns as 'dog parent'. I would definitely return for care for Meshy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Wallington is $44 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $56 per day. 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 11,284 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Wallington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Wallington commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 11,284 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
