“Brittany was excellent! She cared for our dogs like they were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind. We loved receiving daily pictures and updates — it really showed how attentive and caring she is. Her fenced yard made us feel especially comfortable about our dogs’ safety, and she made sure they got outside multiple times each day for exercise, fresh air, and playtime. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would definitely recommend her. Truly kind and caring!”
“Our dog Max spend almost 10 days with Cathy. She kept us updated with daily pictures of Max; He seemed very happy in company of other dogs - made few new friends.. Definitely we'll use Cathy's service again- she is very nice, friendly person. Max was well kept while we were away from home!”
“This was our 3rd time booking Bingo with Ann & her family. Ann sends pictures of Bingo from time to time. We enjoyed our vacation knowing that our pet is in a good place while we are away.”
“Aeli and her husband are incredible! They took care of my dog really well, made sure he feels at home, and sent me pictures and videos everyday! It’s clear that they know dogs really well and are incredibly caring!”
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Evelien took such excellent care of our dog! He came home so happy, and you could tell he was so well cared for. Evelien was communicative and sent wonderful daily updates on how he was doing, what he was up to, and photos of his stay. We would definitely use her again!”
“Lauryn took excellent care of our Gemma. She was very communicative and gave our puppy girl plenty of exercise and plenty of love. We look forward to boarding Gemma was Lauryn again.”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“Pricilla was wonderful with my dog. I was very nervous since this was my first experience but turned out to be better than expected. Pricilla updated me with photos each day which was great assurance. I will definitely reach out to Pricilla in the future!”
“Camila was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with photos and videos and took such great care of Winnie. Her dog Milo was also amazing—he and Winnie got along so well and played together perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again—couldn’t be happier with the experience!”
“Christina and Nick were great with Ollie. They updated us with photos regularly and felt very comfortable with Ollie being there. They also graciously did a meet and greet beforehand as Ollie can be selective with new people. Definitely will be booking again!”
“Melissa did a great job taking care of my precious dog. She sends up pictures and videos updates more than I expected. I highly recommend her and will book again.”
“Liz and Oleg and their kids were great with my pooch. She felt right at home at their house. Liz sent me photos throughout the day so I did not worry about her at all.”
“Benny had a wonderful time staying with Hope. After some negative experiences staying in a kennel, the difference with Hope was night and day. As a city dog, Benny loved running around in her fenced-in backyard, and he quickly felt at home interacting with the family. Hope gave us routine text updates (and photos!), so we didn't worry about him while we on vacation. As a beagle, Benny is loving but stubborn and Hope was patient and caring with him. Highly recommended, especially if you're nervous about leaving your dog.”
About: I've had pets all my life. Now I'm looking to have another furry friend in the house so my dog has some companionship. It's a really cozy place that any dog would be happy to spend time at. I'm working full time from home. My schedule is flexible. I have a dog that I take for walks everyday so I would take your pet as well. I also enjoy taking my dog on longer walks on the weekends if the weather permits. I have a fenced in backyard and I have a gate in the house that I can separate the dogs while I'm out so they never are alone together.
“I can't thank Chialing enough for accepting my last-minute boarding request. She was incredibly attentive, kept me updated with lots of videos and photos, and even made sure my pet's tablet was taken care of. It was clear she cared for my pet like her own and provided detailed updates throughout. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! Thanks again.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Westwood is $60

Hope was an amazing dog sitter for my Shiba Inu. Her space is clean, dog friendly both inside the house and outside with a fenced backyard, plus she is very friendly and loving towards the animals. She checked in multiple times per day with pictures and progress reports on eating/activity/and using the bathroom when hosting my pet. Rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with Hope. Thank you.
Ann was amazing with my dog, Mocha, during an overnight stay! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. Her communication was outstanding — I received updates and knew Mocha was in great hands the whole time. It’s clear Ann truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!
Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Westwood on Rover is $53.5 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 13,667 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Westwood. 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 Westwood 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 Westwood 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 Westwood 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 Westwood.
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 Westwood 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.
