“Excellent. Desi & Marilyn care about what they do. They sent us pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know how our pup was doing and how he was having fun with the other dogs. They were thoughtful about introducing my pup, Benji, to the pack. They asked me questions to about Benji's needs and were great communicators through and through. Benji seemed very happy with his stay. We will be booking again.”
“Sue took great care of our dog Bea while she was there for daycare! Sue sent us lots of photos throughout the day, which we really appreciated, and Bea got to make some friends and enjoyed a walk in the afternoon. Highly recommended!”
“Great job. Attentive, friendly and flexible and kept us updated throughout with pics for a stress free morning and afternoon. Looks like the dogs also really enjoyed the outing. Highly recommended.”
“We were in a pinch and needed to figure out what to do with our dog when an out of town wake and a funeral came up suddenly. We found Jonathan on the Rover map in the area we were staying. He responded promptly and we set up the times we needed daycare. He was flexible as our drop-off and pickup times had to be adjusted. Took care of our dog and - very telling, I think - she seemed fine with going back for the second day. She also seemed fine, looked pretty relaxed when we picked her up,”
“Tracy and Steve have been absolutely wonderful with Coco. He always loves staying at their place, and this time was extra special—they took him to the South Mountain Dog Park for his very first dog park adventure! They also kept us updated with plenty of videos, showing Coco having an amazing time. We couldn’t be happier with the care they provide!”
“My senior dog stayed a full day at Tricia’s. Her yard is full of fun things for the dogs to explore and both Tricia and her daughter are very experienced and knowledgeable about dogs which I really appreciated. Her own dog is such a sweetheart and he quickly adapted to my dog’s boundaries. Great communication overall! Tricia sent me lots of photo updates and checked in throughout the day. My dog was in a great mood when I picked her up which was such a relief for me since my dog has anxiety. So happy to have found Tricia and will book again!”
“Sriram & Rekha S. was super sweet and attentive to Ace. He communicated with me during the whole day. And contacted me as well once my sister picked up Ace. Will be booking with him again!”
“Lily loves going to Amanda’s house. She goes weekly for daycare and when we go on vacation for longer stays. We trust Amanda like she’s Lily’s second mom :). Lily gets a lot of love and attention and we’re so grateful to her and her husband Max (Lily’s best friend).”
“I am beyond happy that I found Katherine this is the second time she watches my 3 pups. She sends me updates throughout the day. She sends me videos as well. I’m at peace knowing that my pups are in good hands. I’m moving to a different area in El Paso but I will definitely be driving to Katherine’s when I need her services. I wouldn’t leave my girls with anyone but her. Thank you Katherine Jade, Rosie and Bella love you 🩷🩷🩷”
“I was so nervous to drop off my newly rescued small Chiweenie and Geoff and Jenny did such a good job caring for him with so much love. Super friendly and accommodating. I can’t wait for him to go back to another doggy daycare day!”
“Eunice was so great with Mocha. He’s a senior so he needs a little more care and attention and Eunice had a great handle on it. He looked like he had such a great time!”

Erika was really great. She fed and walked Rocky and sent me pictures. But she went above and beyond when Rocky was feeling a little sad and didn't want to eat. She gave him some treats and got him in a good mood so he ate his food. I will certainly use Erika again and i highly recommend her.
Nataliya came to our rescue for a last minute Christmas doggy day care job. She and her family were lovely and made us feel secure that Scruffy was in good hands. Their own dog Archie became fast friends with Scruffy as noted by the photo was the two dogs lying down together on the sofa. We hope to use Nataliya again soon!

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 Wayne 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 .
