“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.”
“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!”
“Amanda and her family took excellent care of my dog, Coco, while we were gone on a cruise. She did her best to update us on how Coco is doing with the wifi connection issue on the cruise. We’re nervous about long-time boarding as Coco developed separation anxiety after the boarding experience with another sitter. Coco came back happy and not overly attached to us which tells us she had a good time while we’re gone. I appreciate Amanda and her family for the great care and I will definitely work with Amanda again.”
“Amy was wonderful. She took such good care of our boy. This was our first experience with Rover and Amy made it so easy! She kept us updated our entire trip, sent photos and administered all of his medications with no problem. We were so thankful for her!”
“We were happy to have found Tracy and Steven on Rover. They were good communicators and shared fun updates while they took care of our dog. If your dog is playful and enjoys time with other dogs, this is good choice for your dog.”
“Jonathan and his girlfriend exceeded our expectations Our dog Callie unexpectedly experienced seizures almost everyday of the trip. Jonathan gave detailed reports about the seizures and was extremely knowledgeable of all her seizure medications. I wanted more updates and after communication, Jonathan was very flexible. Just state your expectations and he will be super accommodating. Our dogs came back so happy and we’d love to bring them back.”
“Darien deserves the award for the world’s best dog sitter! Our two dogs Matcha and Zuma had the time of their lives with Darien and her family! Before we found Darien we would have to leave them with someone who kept them in a pen all day and night, due to Matcha always trying to escape. However, Darien was the first dog sitter we could trust to allow Matcha to roam free, and that’s saying a lot!! Darien was extremely professional, reliable, responsive and overall extremely kind with both Matcha and Zuma. She treated them as her own with endless love and care. The constant pictures and videos she would send, put a smile on our faces and gave us a sense of ease! The amount of time and attention she put towards them touched me! We never had to worry! The only thing we were worried about was if they would ever want to come home! 10000000% would recommend Darien to anyone and everyone!!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Eunice. She took such great care of our dog and made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the stay. It was clear from the updates and photos that our dog was happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the kindness, attention, and genuine affection she showed. It was such a relief to know our dog was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Eunice again and highly recommend them her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“Caliber had the best caregivers in the world. I have so much respect for Siram and Rekha. Caliber is a fussy pet, they took the care to make sure he ate, take him for walks etc., They are Caliber forever caregiver as long as they are available.”
“I highly recommend Jaina as a dog boarder. She truly understands dogs and spent plenty of time playing with them. Jaina is conscientious, tidy, and very responsive. Very grateful she was able to take care of my dogs.”
“Susan was great with our senior dog! We loved getting the daily updates and could tell our pup received excellent care and his routine was very similar to the one he keeps at our home. Would recommend Susan in a heartbeat!”
About: My loving pet sitting services comes with long walks, access to my fenced in back yard, and endless cuddles and play time with my family (including 3 kids ages 10, 10, 13). I can set up gates to restrict access if needed but I generally give dogs full run of my first floor, including sofas, so I generally limit day care and overnights to fully potty-trained dogs with zero aggression. I don't accept dogs from multiples homes in 1 stay but am open to more than 1 dog from the same home coming together. I work from home and my kids walk themselves to school and sports, so I'm very flexible to take your dog out to the backyard as often as needed, and we can also do several short walks and/or a longer walk, depending on what they like. With play time and cuddles thrown in throughout the day, of course! I have a 6' high fenced in back yard, however we do have the occasional rabbit or ground hog digging under the fence, so we can do a perimeter check before letting small dogs run free, or I can keep them leashed for potty breaks. It's totally up to you if you want them to run around freely or not, but we are always out there supervising.
“Milena took amazing care of our dog while I was in the hospital to have our daughter. She was flexible given the circumstances and treated my pup like one of the family. I can’t thank or recommend her enough!”
“We used David and his family all summer! Milo has an amazing time there and very well taken care of- and my dog is very high energy and still a puppy and they are always so kind! Definitely our go to family now on Rover!”
“I can’t express how amazing my dog’s stay was with Maisha. I literally won’t book with anyone else! She sent photos and video and was incredibly responsive. My dog had a blast during his stay. I will book again and you should too if you’re reading this!”
“Charles was excellent taking care of Bailey. Bailey was anxious because she’s not used to being around other dogs. Charles made her comfortable and she warmed up to the other dogs and had a great stay! He kept me appraised of how she was doing. Excellent service, highly recommend Charles!!!”
“Sue was amazing! She took extra special care of Annie when she became sick and sent frequent updates so I did not have to worry. She also included plenty of photos and videos so I could see for myself how she was doing. Thank again Sue for taking such good care of her! Hope she can stay with you again in the future.”
“Carolina took amazing care of our 1 year old cavapoo! She has a beautiful dog Daisy who was so friendly and playful and other dogs for her to play with too. We got daily updates while our dog was in her care - with pictures too!!! Her whole family was so wonderful - we would definitely book Carolina again when we travel!”

John was a delight, my fur baby PJ stayed a week with him and had a great time during playtime and the daily walks. It was so reassuring to know PJ was in good hands. He sent pictures throughout to show me how much fun they wsre having. I've already booked him for another stay.
Thank you so much to Elizabeth for taking wonderful care of Coco. We loved getting daily updates with pictures and videos. It gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. Elizabeth went above and beyond by giving Coco a bath and washing his blanket and toys before pickup. Coco came home happy and clean. Thank you again for the excellent care!
Our dog, Coach, had a dream stay with Kristen over Christmas. He was treated like royalty. She handled his food and meds like the pro she is, but also carved out a path for him so he wouldn’t have to walk on the snow. She sent several videos a day, he looked SO happy. Can’t wait for the next opportunity to board him at Kristen’s house. He looked like he didn’t want to leave!!

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.
95% of West Caldwell 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 West Caldwell 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 West Caldwell 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 West Caldwell.
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 West Caldwell 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.
