“I absolutely ADORE Cathy! She was the a savior when I needed a sitter for my 2 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were in her very capable hands. I will not hesitate to have her take care of my "boys" in the future, and I highly recommend her!”
“Alarie and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. From the moment we met them, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. They created such a warm, loving environment for him, and it was clear throughout his stay that he was well cared for. Alarie was highly responsive and shared frequent updates and beautiful photos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to Alarie and her family for treating our pup like one of their own. We would absolutely recommend them and would be very happy to have our pup stay with them again!”
“We are thrilled to recommend Monica & Kelvin, who enthusiastically welcomed our 14 year old cocker spaniel Baci to their home! With texts and photos during our vacation, Monica gave us the confidence that we made a great decision in leaving Baci in their care. She made the arrangements for her services easy for us, and she was accommodating in every way. We consider them the perfect dog sitters!”
“Another amazing experience for Watson with Melissa! She provides so many updates and photos/videos of him. Watson is clearly so comfortable and taken care of while staying with Melissa and her family. He goes on so many walks and is truly with a family who loves animals. So grateful for the help!”
“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!”
“We had such a great experience with Michaelangelo! We had a last-minute need for someone to watch our almost 2-year-old Boxer, Walter, who is VERY energetic and has some separation anxiety. Michaelangelo said yes without hesitation, which we really appreciated. He has two Pomeranians of his own and a great fenced-in yard where Walter could run around and get all of his energy out. Michaelangelo sent us pictures and updates every day, which really helped us feel comfortable knowing Walter was doing well. He was also very quick to respond anytime I had a question. Walter had a great time and came home happy! We’re so happy we found Michaelangelo and would definitely recommend him to our family and friends. We will absolutely use him 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.”
“Rhinesca is simply the best! She made me feel so comfortable leaving my two fur babies Drew and Lola with her. They felt right at home and adjusted so well with the change. They got a lot of cuddles, outdoor time, and treats. Please don’t hesitate any further an book and future dog boarding with her.”
“Kun was so great to have during this trip! He sent us constant updates throughout the day in order to keep us posted about how our dog was doing and always was super understanding. Would definitely re-book.”
“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!”
“Aeli has looked after our boy Charlie several times now and he always has the best time at her house. We get updates several times per day which we appreciate and he always looks so happy, whether he’s playing or relaxing with belly rubs!”
“We are so happy we found Peiyi to board our dog Jackson. We were going away and we needed someone we could trust for an extended stay of 17 days. Peiyi and her husband is amazing. From the start she was very responsive to our request and to all of our questions which ensured us that Jackson will be in great hands. She is flexible with our requests of our specific pick up and drop off times. She gave updates and sent us pictures. Jackson after coming home seems happy and the same and not sad at all since we were concerned that we were away for quite some time. You can tell she’s very knowledgeable about dogs and loves dogs. We also loved the fact that she was 30 min away and her rates were affordable. This was our first time with Peiyi but definitely won’t be our last. We would definitely use her services again in the near future and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Third time leaving our Coco with Elizabeth. She was wonderful. Coco came home calm and exhausted. Would definitely recommend this family. We felt so at ease leaving her.”
“This was our third time using this sitter, and we’ve always felt very comfortable leaving Buddy with them—but this time truly showed how exceptional they are. We had an unexpected emergency with Buddy involving a neurological issue, and they handled it calmly and professionally. They called me immediately, followed my instructions exactly, and kept me updated throughout, which really helped put me at ease during a very stressful situation. They are incredibly responsible, attentive, and reliable. I’m so grateful for the care they gave Buddy and the support they gave me. I highly recommend them and look forward to bringing Buddy back once he’s feeling better.”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
“Paola took excellent care of our little dog for a week while we were on vacation . She communicated daily with us and provided photos. Our dog was treated like part of her family. Jazzie came home happy and healthy! Will definitely book with Paola again!”
“Bandit had a great time with Tammy and her family for his 2 night stay. I was nervous to leave him but she reassured me through texts and pictures that he was doing great. I will definitely book Tammy the next time we decide to go away.”
“Thanks Ankita...They were attentive, reliable, and clearly cared for my dog like their own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well taken care of.”

We've used Ann's in-home dog sitting several times now for our Mini Goldendoodle, Penny, and every experience has been great. Ann is incredibly responsive — she always answers questions quickly and puts us at ease when we're away. She sends regular updates and photos while Penny's in her care, so we never have to wonder how things are going. Most importantly, she's completely reliable; we know we can count on her every time we book. Highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative dog sitter!
Jessica did an amazing job watching Betsy. I have an elderly dog who is very skittish but she relaxed and seemed very happy with Jessica. She took her for walks and sat with her. She gave her medication and even tried to clean her ear. Our family felt very happy and secure knowing that Betsy was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Jessica. She has such positive energy and really loves dogs.

Brittany and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper. From the updates she shared to the care and attention they gave him, we could tell he was genuinely loved and treated like part of their family. Honestly, I think Cooper was a little sad to leave them! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for and loved just as he would be at home with us. Brittany truly became an extension of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Cooper again. Thank you, Brittany and family!
Oakley has been going to Cathy’s house for many years and definitely loves his time away from home there. He is always made comfortable by Cathy and her family and has a good time while he is at her house. Cathy went above and beyond this visit as Oakley was taking a slew of medications for a tummy issue and Cathy made sure he didn’t miss any of them! As always, a great experience and much love at Cathy’s house.
Eleanor is awesome!!! I reached out to her for an emergency to keep my 5month old GSD pupp for a day. She was kind enough to keep him and took every good care of my pupp.. I highly recommend her. My pupp loved her place and secured backyard is a blessing in disguise
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!
Jamen was great! He had our Doxie for a week during the holidays, and, I had no doubt that she was in great hands. Jamen had set up the house so that Doxie would be comfortable the whole time. Jamen sent pictures and updates, and, responded within minutes when I reached out to him. On top of that, he was flexible when my dates changed. I would work with Jamen again in a heartbeat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 13,540 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Woodcliff Lake. 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 Woodcliff Lake 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 Woodcliff Lake 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 Woodcliff Lake 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 Woodcliff Lake.
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 Woodcliff Lake 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.
