About: I feel what makes me different from other candidates is that I have treats for them. I make sure they are always comfortable. I give you updates on how they are doing. I know as dog parents sometimes we stress of knowing how they are. I also have been working taking care of dogs since I was 15. It was helped me learn a lot through the years Taking care of your fur baby fits in my daily routine because I have extra time and I enjoy going on walks and they bring so much joy. What makes my home safe is that I live a safe area. There is a park across the street across the street. They also get the backyard. There are no kids and they will monitored.
“I’m always happy when Sade is available to watch our pup. She truly treats Amethyst like her own and is very understanding and you can tell she really loves dogs. She also keeps us updated with lots of pics! With some other boarding or sitters, our dog will come back very sad but with Sade she always comes back happy 🩷”

“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”

“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine.

“Doug and Luiz took great care of our girls while we were away. We were first time Rover users but they clearly know what they are doing. They have their house set up really well and have seen it all. They gave us lots of updates and are very safety focused. I especially appreciate them putting airtags on the dogs upon check in and every entry/exit point is double gated. Really conscientious dog lovers who set up towel pathways for my dog who gets scared of tile/wood floors. Will for sure use again!”

Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Orange
I had such a wonderful experience with this amazing couple! They took incredible care of my dog, Teddy, and treated him like he was part of their own family. They kept me updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. What really stood out was how kind and accommodating they were. I was delayed because of a storm, and they stayed up late so I could pick Teddy up without making me feel rushed or inconvenienced. That level of care and understanding meant so much to me. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters, and I would trust them with Teddy again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable, and genuinely wonderful people to watch their pet!
Leaving Rosie with Vanessa and her family while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment she arrived, Rosie was beyond excited to be there and was treated like part of the family. Vanessa kept us updated with so many photos and videos of Rosie playing, relaxing, and clearly having the best time. It made being away from our girl so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was so loved and well cared for. We could truly enjoy our wedding and honeymoon without worrying for a second. We’re incredibly grateful for the kindness, communication, and genuine care Vanessa and her family showed Rosie. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
Danielle was absolutely excellent! She was very communicative from start to finish and made the entire experience stress-free. I really appreciated the regular updates—she kept me informed and sent messages that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was in great hands and being well cared for. If you’re considering booking with Danielle, don’t think twice—just book! Highly recommend her services.
Karin was a super sitter for our mini schnauzer, Colby. She kept us updated with photos and reports. Karin reassured us that Colby was eating well and had a good relationship with her dog, Roxie. She followed all our requests for Colby’s care and communicated any concerns she had. We would definitely use Karin again to watch Colby.
Karen was amazing with our dog! She sent us updates and pictures as much as we wanted! She was great at communicating, texting back fast, and was just very sweet overall! I could enjoy my tome away while knowing benny was having a great time as well. Benny was very well taken care of and he acted as if he just came back from vacation too when we picked him up! Definitely would recommend her! Would give her 10 starts if i could, and will be using her services again!
Breanna was an amazing sitter. I received so many picture updates and she was very inquisitive and caring in learning about my dog and his needs. One of the first times that I had no doubt that he was in amazing hands. I will definitely be rebooking and making her my go to sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Orange on Rover is $59.94 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 13,920 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Orange. 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.
95% of West Orange 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 Orange 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 Orange 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 Orange.
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 Orange 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.
