“Fantastic pet sitting experience for our two dogs! While attending a wedding we left our dogs with the BRATs for a few days. They paid careful attention to the requests we made for our dogs’ care and followed through flawlessly. We also received regular updates by photo, video and text, which reassured us that the dogs were very happy and getting lots of love and attention. We heartily recommend Trevor and family for overnight stays!”
“Accommodated with short notice. Encouraged a meet and greet, even came to us due to our schedule. Immediately felt at ease leaving Fletcher for the day. He looked happy in the photos sent.”
“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!”
“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”
“Shaun and his family were an amazing host! He took very good care of our dog, taking her on daily walks, playing with her and sending frequent updates and pictures. We highly recommend Shaun and will look for him in the future.”
“Stan and Barbara took such great care of our dog for the week. They shared daily updates and pictures which we really enjoyed. We will definitely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Happy to have found them using Rover!”
“I can’t thank Carol enough for taking such great care of my fur baby while I was away!! He was very comfortable staying with her and was definitely pampered. I only hope she’s available to watch him any time I need to leave town.”
“Gail took great care of sully while we were away. She is very caring and our dog seemed to feel very comfortable and relaxed in her home. She is very responsive and provides good updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying if sully was doing ok.”
“Paul was great looking after Nellie over thanksgiving! Sent a bunch of photos throughout the week of her with his family and gave updates throughout her stay. Nellie can be a bit shy initially and Paul gave her the time and patience to come out of her shell and fell more comfortable with his family. Will definetly use Paul again!”
“We could not be more enthusiastic and thankful to Jillian and her family for caring for our puppy for one week. We were given regular updates with photos and videos. It’s like leaving your loved pet with family. Thank you a million times.”
“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”
“John was very tentative to our dog . We loved his positive energy . We can tell he's a true animal lover . He was so easy going and flexible when we had to change our drop off off time last minute . Love how him and his son made our dog feel loved :) Photos were adorable of her he sent ! Thanks so much :)”

“Amanda and her family treated our Cooper like one of their own! They provided so many great photos and updates! We will definitely be using Amanda’s services again☺️”
“I found her... a GENUINE. CARING. LOVING DOG SITTER! Diana is literally a one in a million gem. Not only did she very kindly accommodate my last minute request - She took such good care of my baby Koko and sent me so many pictures and videos. She was so good with Koko that koko wasn't "anxious" to see me or desperate to leave. Honestly... koko could have stayed with Diana and her family for much longer had the choice been hers lol. It alleviates so much stress when you KNOW your dog is truly so well taken care of and loved on when you're away. I had that feeling with Diana. You'll be SO LUCKY to have her as your sitter. All her dogs are so kind and sweet and well behaved. You wont regret having your dog stay with her.”
“Pia’s stay with Charles was great. He is an awesome person who truly loves the pets he cares for. He shared pictures time to time keeping us informed of Pia’s well being. I am grateful to have met Charles and highly recommend him. We are definitely returning next time Pia needs a break from us 😊”
“Sriram and Rekha were absolutely wonderful! From the moment we had our meet and greet, I knew my sweet lab Peanut would be in in exceptional hands. Their property is truly beautiful! It's so expansive, spacious and very safe, it's like a luxury dog hotel! They are such kind people and really made Peanut feel so welcome and right at home. Over the July 4th weekend, they went above and beyond by sending me adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Peanut was so happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and individual attention. This was without a doubt the best boarding experience I've ever had. I couldn't recommend Sriram and Rekha highly enough and I will absolutely be booking with them again, Peanut didn't want to leave! Thanks guys once again for taking such incredible care of my fur baby Peanut!”
“Cherie and her family were great hosts for our canine family member Gigi . Gigi received great care and had lots of fun with the family puppy and young son - whom Gigi now regards as one of her very best human friends (he knows how to really throw a ball).”
“Chelsea did a great job with our two dogs. we are fully confident for the next booking. Chelsea is kind and patient with people and animal. we recommand her !”
About: I am patient and will let your dog sniff around all they want. I am caring and will ensure the path your dog is walking on is safe for their paws. And I am energetic, leaving your dog tired when they come home. I will care for your dog by keeping them on a leash and bringing water for when they get thirsty. With your cat, I will first let them sniff me and warm up to me. They’ll soon cuddle up to me. I am available most days before 9am, at lunchtime (between 12pm and 2pm) and after 5pm. For house visits, I am able to stay either all day or all night and pop during the day for mealtimes/potty breaks. While in your home, I am mindful of your space and will follow your instructions. For boarding visits, I live near a park and can take your pet out 3-4 times a day. Unfortunately while I understand everyone’s needs/customs are different, I do no accept dogs that either use an indoor doggy potty or are not house trained.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Whippany is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whippany
Dhurti took wonderful care of Oreo! She had great communication throughout the entire stay and sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Oreo looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really appreciated her kindness and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Riti was absolutely wonderful! She watched our girl, Lady, for a few days and it was a great experience from start to finish. Riti was super communicative leading up to and during the stay, sending tons of photos, which I really appreciated. Riti took care to follow the long list of care instructions I left with her as well. I would highly recommend Riti, and I will definitely be using her again in the near future! 💖🐶
Alka is my pup’s and my new favorite person! I am so thankful I found someone I trust to take care of my Yorkie, Clover. As the owner of a recently adopted 8 year old Yorkie with a few health issues , leaving him with someone new was stressful. Alka immediately put my mind at ease. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. He looked so happy, relaxed, and genuinely loved❤️. I couldn’t recommend Alka more highly.
Mike did an outstanding job caring for our two Goldendoodles while we were away. From the start, he was communicative, professional, and clearly cared about making sure our dogs were comfortable and happy. He followed their routine closely, paid attention to all of their needs, and kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and plenty of pictures. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Most importantly, our dogs had an amazing time with him. It was obvious from the updates and from how happy and relaxed they were when we got home that they were well cared for and genuinely enjoyed their stay. We are incredibly grateful for the excellent care Mike provided and would not hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitter.
Rex always enjoys his time Trevor, Bydette, and their kids. He loves being in a family home, getting to meet and play with a few other dogs, and get outside in their grassy yard. We feel confident while we're away that he is not only cared as an individual pup, but he is enjoyed by the family as well!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Gabriel took such amazing care of our Moon, while we were away. From the very first message, he was friendly, communicative, and clearly experienced. We got regular updates, photos, and little notes that showed how much attention and affection our baby was getting. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Moon was in such good hands. When we came home, Moon was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. We’ll absolutely be booking with Gabriel again — highly recommend to anyone looking for a truly reliable and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Whippany on Rover is $69.55 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 13,441 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Whippany. 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 Whippany 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 Whippany 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 Whippany 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 Whippany.
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 Whippany 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.
