“Carolina took such good care of our two dogs. They had so much fun playing with her dog as well. She sent daily updates about how they were doing which was perfect since we were so far away from home for over a week. We really appreciated her taking care of them. We highly recommend her loving care.”
“Our dog Max's second stay with Rhea and Max went as wonderfully as his first! Rhea and Michael take extraordinary care of Max and provide consistent updates with his daily activities. Their large fenced-in yard is great for our active pup -- he loves it! Thanks again!”
“Teresa was absolutely wonderful, we are so grateful that we found her! We actually found her very last minute and she was wonderful, kind, super accommodating, and so wonderful to our dog! Her correspondence was great and we knew our dog was in the best care the whole time we were away! Highly recommend her, she is lovely!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Amanda watched my dog and was amazing!! She sent lots of photos and updates which kept my mind at ease while on vacation. My dog seemed to have just as much of a vacation with Amanda as I did!”
“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.”
“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”
“Britney was fantastic with our girl, Sydney (14 month old F Cavapoo.) I was able to book her stay with short notice and Britney was very quick to respond, both during the booking & the stay. Sydney is a velcro dog & received all the snuggles she is used to getting at home while staying with Britney & her family.”
“I wish I could give an extra star to show how wonderful my experience with Marisol and John was. It’s always scary leaving your beloved pet with someone you don’t know, but they did everything possible to make sure I felt comfortable with Rudy in their care. Communication was great, fast responses to anything I sent, and lots of updates with pictures. They very clearly treated him like he is part of their family, and it’s obvious that this isn’t just a job, that they truly care about your babies. Rudy loses weight very easily, and his feeding schedule is a bit complicated to prevent that. They did an amazing job with it though, and he came home with no weight loss and cleaner than he was when he left my house. They even gave me a little framed picture from his time with them. Rudy was very sad to leave all of his new friends behind, but he will be seeing them again for sure. I cannot recommend Marisol and John enough. Your baby will be safe and happy with them.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“We would give 10 stars if we could! Tricia had our Labrador Retriever/Catahoula Leopard mix Lenny for a little over a week and it was the first time we had ever left him anywhere. At our first meeting, it was clear that Tricia has a tremendous amount of experience and know-how when it comes to dogs, and I knew immediately that we were in great hands. She calmed our nerves and assured us that she would keep us updated while we were away. She helped our guy settle into a routine quickly and she did an extraordinary job handling his food issues (we sent pre-made table food for her to give him). While we were away, she was an excellent communicator and sent us various pictures of him during different times of the day. He looked so happy that we were afraid he wouldn't want to come home! When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, clean, and showed obvious affection towards Tricia. We are so incredibly relieved that we found her to watch Lenny if and when we need to travel without our boy. With gratitude, from Laura (Lenny's Mom).”
“Marcy was absolutely amazing with our pup Chewie! He was so so so loved by her entire family and she sent us amazing pictures and videos the entire time we were away! Thank you so much for taking care of our pup, we have definitely found our new sitter and hope you’ll have Chewie back in your home!”
“Peggy had a great time at Jonathan’s! He always sent us videos and pictures of Peggy during her stay which was so nice to see. He even helped with leash training. The whole process was easy going and I would highly recommend Jonathan to anyone.”
“I had my 1 ½ old morkie with Suely this week for 3 days and the experience was quite good. It was my first time using Rover.com and Suely made me feel quite comfortable and at ease during our interview meet. She sent me pictures and updates during my trip. I will certainly book Suely again in the future.”
“Hao and his lovely family were amazing with our Ripley. He sent pictures and videos throughout her stay so that we can receive updates on how our baby girl was doing. We could tell that she was very well taken care of and he treated her like she was his own. We would highly recommend Hao if you need someone who you can trust with your fur baby. We were very appreciative of his care and how open and communicative he was with us. Hao was also very accommodating! 5 stars all the way!!”
“There is no better feeling than knowing that your dog is safe and being cared for with the same amount of love you have for them. I do not have enough great things to say, Geoff and Jenny are amazing!!!!”
“Amy was wonderful with our dog Jack. He’s an anxious dog who takes a little time to get to know new people and Amy was extremely patient and accommodating. We really appreciate a home where Jack feels comfortable and it took very little time for Jack to feel comfortable with Amy and her family. We will be booking again for our summer vacation boarding needs.”
“Draco had the best day!!!!!!! He was exhausted when he came home and he was clean and extremely well taken care of. His size is overwhelming but Jason is the dog whisperer - Draco came home calm and happy. I HIGHLY recommend Jason & Ashley - they will love your dog like it’s their own. I will absolutely be sending Draco again SOON!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
Leaving your fur baby in good hand is always the most important thing you worry about and with Jason I knew he was the perfect person to trust! Not only did she get one on one care but always had playmates and a huge back yard to run around. Lots of pictures were sent, feeding instructions were followed and on point, as well as a piece of mind that she was well cared for. Thank you again!!!
Nataliya took an excellent care of my dog Iris. From the first day I knew my dog was very comfortable and relaxed in Nataliya’s home. Iris had a lot of fun running in the back yard playing with Nataliya’s very friendly dog Archie . Nataliya sent a lot of pictures and videos of Iris every day . I saw my puppy absolutely happy, playing, walking or napping , relaxing. Iris slept anywhere she wanted including Nataliya’s bed! The house is very clean , quiet and the back yard is huge . I did not have to worry a minute about my puppy’s wellbeing while in Nataliya’s care. My dog was 100% happy there . Thank you so much Nataliya for taking care of my baby ! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 13,773 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wayne. 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.
96% of Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne 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 Wayne.
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 Wayne 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.
