“Lori was amazing with our 6 year old basset hound. Our dog felt right at home when she stayed with her. Usually our dog gets nervous and can’t wait to leave when boarded. I will definitely use her again.”

“Ceecee was AMAZING. I needed a sitter at the last minute and she responded asap and was able to accommodate me. She was so great with koda and so sweet. Koda is a big boy and she took him in with no questions asked and updated me through out the stay. She made sure he felts safe and loved. I would 100% recommend booking with her.”
“Our Bichon, Jeffrey loves his Aunt Patti! When we dropped him off, he made himself right at home without a look in our direction! He celebrated Thanksgiving with Pat and her family, again making himself at home sitting on the couch with her soon to be son-in-law watching the game! We didn't worry at all about Jeffrey. Pat kept us updated with pictures and adorable videos of his days there! We were able to enjoy a few days with my husband's family for Thanksgiving without a single worry. I know Jeffrey can't wait to see his new family again!”
“Kathleen was great. She kept us updated each day of our trip how Charlie was doing and sent pics of him. Highly recommend her for watching your pet! It was so nice knowing he was being taken care of properly while we were away! Will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks Kathleen!”
“Dogs came back in excellent condition. Extra food and treats were returned. Fenced yard and friendly dogs in the home. Andrew kept us posted while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“On meeting Jim and his wife we instantly knew our 12 year old dog would be well cared for. On return from our trip, our dog barely said hello to us, then ran back to Jim. We feel very fortunate to have found Jim and highly recommended him.”
“Lisa was wonderful with my Peppy! Snuggles, car ride, art work, and plenty of love by the family! Lisa really is awesome and very easy going to deal with. Your pet would be privileged and spoiled to be in her care :) Thanks again!!!”
“Jan was soooo amazing with our dog! She went above and beyond to give him an awesome time. We got pictures, videos and updates multiple times a day. Tommy came back so tired which means he had a great time too! Can’t thank Jan enough for the stay!”
“Marci took great care of our Heidi girl while we were away! She sent lots of pictures and was sure to keep us up to date. We were at ease knowing she was in good hands!”
“Denise was absolutely wonderful and we had such peace on our vacation as she took such great care of our senior dog and gave her the one on one special attention and love she requires. What a great experience and hope that in the future if our little girl is still with us for our next trip we will bring her to Denise. She was truly a godsend for us and our little girl.”
About: I’ve had dogs before, so I’m comfortable managing and caring for them daily. I also grew up around about 16 dogs, which helped me develop patience, confidence, and the ability to handle different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand routines like feeding, walks, supervision, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During the school year, I’m available before and after school. I leave for school in the morning and return around 2:40 PM, so I’m dependable for afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm environment for every pet in my care. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Absecon
Michael was amazing with our little Skye. We were nervous to drop her off and he immediately displayed a sense of calm which put our mind at ease. He sent regular updates and very understanding when we were running late to pick her up. Will definitely be calling again when we need boarding. Thank you for everything.
Patty and her husband watched Pepper on short notice (we suddenly adopted her 3 weeks before a scheduled cruise) and provided excellent care. They welcomed us into their home, showed us around, and we could see she’d be in great hands. She also loved playing with their dog, Ginger, as a bonus! We will book again next year!
When my dog,Millie, first met Karrie I could have sworn she recognized Karrie as a long lost friend! Karrie welcomed my Millie into her home and sent me pictures of Millie looking extremely relaxed and tired from all her exercise. Karrie is a confident and capable dog sitter and very kind. This helped us relax and enjoy our Christmas ! We look forward to scheduling with her again! Thank you.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Absecon on Rover is $49.95 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 .

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.
94% of Absecon 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 Absecon 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 Absecon 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 Absecon.
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 Absecon 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.
