“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“Susie came back well cared for and seemed to think it was her house that she stayed at for the weekend Catherine is welcoming and pleasant and my dog’s reaction to her says it all.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Thana & Subangi. We left our golden retriever, Mango, with them for almost 10 days, and from start to finish we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and responsible hands. They took excellent care of Mango and kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which truly meant a lot to us while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Mango was happy, comfortable, and being treated like part of their family. Toward the end of his stay, Mango’s food ran out, and they were kind enough to provide their own dog food without hesitation — a small gesture that really shows how thoughtful and caring they are. We couldn’t be happier with the level of care, communication, and kindness they showed our dog. We would 100% trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Mango!”
“Chandar and his family are like a second home and family to Ruth. They truly love dogs and care for Ruth as if she’s their own (she’s already had 3 stays with them). And Ruth loves them, too!! They are so good to her and spoil her with belly rubs and miles-long sunrise and sunset walks. Chandar sends professional grade photos of Ruth with beautiful, artistic, and often charming backdrops (e.g., a hot air balloon, Princeton campus, dog zodiac statute). Chandar’s family is so welcoming, warm, and kind and it’s always a pleasure to see them when we drop off or pick up Ruth. They have also been incredibly accommodating, welcoming Ruth on short notice or letting her stay late. So happy that we met them!”
“Jolanta was wonderful with my puppy! My pup loved her the very first time we met for a meet n greet. Jolanta is warm, friendly and welcoming. She is gentle with dogs and treats him like her own baby! Highly recommend Jolanta to anyone looking for a loving and caring home away from home for their dogs!”
“Ángela was an incredible person, lovely and really care about my dogs. My dogs stayed for 12 days with her and they were super happy at her house and with her, they played a lot in the secure fenced yard and she was updating me every day about their food and plays, I found the dogs when I returned very very happy and beautiful, she is a really trusting person, so I really appreciate and recommend her. I’m very happy and looking forward to booking soon for the next trip.”
“Our pup Puzzles had a great time with Savi! It was her first time being boarded anywhere overnight, so I was a little nervous, but Savi was so kind, very communicative and sure to provide updates during Puzzles’s stay, which was only two nights! I could tell my puppy liked her, and she loves people who love dogs. Pickup and drop off were flexible enough for my needs, and Savi was very helpful when I struggled getting the crate in and out of my car ? I’d definitely recommend her services, and will see if she’s available next time I’m out of town!”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my special-needs pup, Dottie, for 8 years. She’s on a strict diet and takes meds too, so I’m good with following precise instructions. I have a loving and serene home where Dottie and I can welcome your pup. I work from home on Fridays, so I am available for boarding for long weekends. We could coordinate a Thursday evening drop-off if need be. On the weekends, I go to a pilates class and run errands, but am otherwise around as company for the dogs. My yard is only partially fenced, so I will be taking the dogs on leashed walks. Dottie sleeps in bed with me, so it’s okay if your pup needs to as well. If your dog is crate-trained, that is okay too.
About: I’ve volunteered at Marty’s Place Senior Dog Sanctuary as well as SAVE Pet Shelter through my corporate volunteer opportunities. Additionally, my dog is incredibly stubborn and picky so I’m confident that your pet is much more well behaved. All of Yuki’s meals are prepped daily with an assortment of protein options and fresh vegetables to accommodate nutritional needs. I work a full time job, so my schedule will be a bit more limited. I am available most evenings 7pm and later and select weekends. The neighborhood I live in is very walkable and safe. Additionally, I have no concerns taking your dog to the park or other outdoor options to ensure they get the enrichment they need.
“Rosie had another great stay with Chandupa and Ipsita and Avi. Their prompt, reliable communication is very reassuring when we are away. They took good care of my Rosie!”
“I needed last minute boarding for my 3 month old puppy due to an unexpected emergency, and decided to reach out to Pam. I am so happy that we decided to go with Pam, as she provided exceptional care for our puppy. She messaged back nearly immediately, let us know when she is available for a call, and we discussed expectations and how she carries care for dogs throughout the boarding process. I felt immediately at ease, as Pam is very kind and easily diffused any anxiety that came with boarding our puppy. Pam gave us updates throughout the day and always responded quickly, reassuring me that I could give her a call when needed. I would 100% recommend Pam’s services to any dog owner who needs boarding in the area. Pam is an expert in this area, having cared for all kinds of dogs. Her knowledge is broad and she carries herself very well. Thank you so much! ❤️”
About: We're a family of six—myself, my husband, our three kids, and our Great Dane, Indigo. We take only one booking at a time so your dog gets our undivided attention and care. Our home is never empty. My husband works from home daily, and our kids are lifelong dog lovers. Indigo is well-loved and spoiled, but she's truly longing for a playmate to chase around our fenced backyard. Mornings and evenings are for short, leisurely walks, while lunchtime calls for a longer jog. Being a mom of four—Indigo included—I bring patience, calm, and attentiveness to every pet I watch. I love sticking to their routine, learning their favorite toy, their favorite spot, and all the little quirks that make them who they are. My husband and I have shared our home with both big and small dogs over the years, so we're comfortable with any size, energy level, or personality. For stays longer than five days, we kindly ask that you bring their bed and an old shirt to help them feel right at home. Until we meet your four-legged family member, know that they'll be treated like one of our own. Morning walks, evening walks, and plenty of play in between. We follow your dog's routine so they feel right at home. Let us know what makes them happy. They'll have free run of our home and a warm spot to sleep at night. We've got a fenced yard and a park down the street. We do everything with them just like you would on a normal day.
“Lenny was very warm and welcoming. She took good care of Oreo and kept me posted with daily activities with messages, pictures and videos. Oreo was very happy. Will definitely keep Oreo with Lenny again!”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish, and even tarantulas. I come from a family of animal lovers and I understand that every pet has their own personality. I have helped house sit and take care of my friends cats, dogs, and rats since I have been in Princeton, NJ also. I am a graduate student at Princeton University currently and since I set my own schedule on most days, I can be available frequently to give your pet some love and care. I have experience with crating dogs since I was a child. I am very comfortable with following all the rules you have set for your home.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in West Windsor is CA$60

We had such a great experience with Anish & Aaheli! Albus had a wonderful time staying with the family — you could tell he felt right at home. They clearly love animals and took such good care of him, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We'd absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup!
Macauley was absolutely the best! Our pet was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for with her. It was clear from the moment we met that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-loved pet, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their furry family member!
Kassidy was very caring and our pet Buddy loved his stay with her. She kept sharing Buddy's activities info and his photos with us periodically which was very calming for us. We will definitely use her services in future and recommend her to those who are looking for a safe home for their pets while going on vacation.
I adopted my dog Nomi at the end of 2025 and knew I had a lot of rehabilitation ahead of us since she is highly fearful and skittish. Nomi came from a hoarding house in Puerto Rico where 100 animals were removed from the property. I learned about Carly during a search on Rover and was pleasantly surprised when I discovered we both love mixed breed dogs from PR. Today was the first day since Nomi's adoption that she stayed with anyone other than myself. I decided on a half day of daycare and was thrilled with how well Nomi did with Carly, her family and dog Naia. I received photos and updates during the day which put my mind at ease. I felt a sense of trust almost immediately. I will definitely be asking Carly to watch Nomi again. Thank you so much Carly! 😊🐶

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Windsor home-away-from-home, 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 Windsor.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Windsor sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

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.

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.
