“Kristen was one of the best sitters my pup has had. Her and her family took such good care of Mochi. Mochi had so much fun and felt at home. Kristen sent me many pictures and updates throughout the long weekend which I loved. She was flexible with changing the pickup time too. Highly recommend!”
“I can't say enough positive things about Paola! Our dog has separation anxiety and is always very anxious when we're not with him, but somehow Paola made him feel right at home and completely comfortable during his stay. She sent us multiple pictures every day and was very at ease knowing our dog was being very well taken care of!”
“This was our first time leaving Lincoln with Jouseline, and she made it such a great experience. She was an excellent communicator, sending updates and photos of Lincoln eating, walking, and enjoying his day. She was also flexible with our schedule when we needed to pick him up a little earlier. Lincoln came home happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely book with Jouseline again!”
“Very appreciative to have taken my pup last minute when I flew home for a wedding. Was great with my pup and he loved playing with her kiddos. Thankful that she was able to give him his medications when asked. Thank you so much, definitely would recommend and use again when back in the area!!”
“Jenn provided the best care for our recently adopted french bulldog, Dr. Pepper. She kept intouch with me all weekend and sent lots of pictures. He seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jenn and her family. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Danielle is absolutely amazing! This was our second time using her services, and we feel truly blessed to have found such a gem. She communicates consistently and clearly, shows exceptional care and attention to detail with our dogs, and is incredibly flexible when we’re in a crunch. We truly appreciate her dedicated service and everything she does for us.”
“Kim was wonderful with our Scouty! She sent lotsnof pictures, was able to tend to his medical needs, and kept him calm and happy while we were away. It was hard to leave him, as we know he gets anxious when we're away, but we had no worries once he was there. Wonderful experience! Thanks, Kim!”
“Rebecca is a wonderful caring sitter and took great care of my lively puppy while I was away. She is very responsible and dependable and I highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from young puppies to senior dogs. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from 5 pounds to 150 pounds, so I’m comfortable handling both small and large breeds. My experience also includes caring for dogs with anxiety, special routines, and medication needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their individual personality, comfort level, and routine so they feel safe and cared for while they’re with me. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs plenty of exercise, a senior dog who needs a slower paced walk, or a nervous dog who needs extra patience and reassurance, I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and dependable care. I have a flexible schedule and can meet any needs your dog(s) have. I’m available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I will care for your dog in their own home, allowing them to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’ll follow all care instructions closely, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your dog receives plenty of attention and exercise.
“Joanna was fantastic with our Bruce! She went above and beyond when he wasn’t eating by providing chicken and eggs. Joanna made sure he took his daily medication. She played and walked him daily and sent us photos often. I know he was happy with her!”
“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika. They got along well with her dog Piper and I could tell by the pictures they were comfortable and enjoyed their time playing, snuggling and sleeping in their normal comfortable spots. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”
“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”
“From our first communication, Kristin was responsive and thoughtful. She offered a meet-and-greet and we took her up on it. Scout was at home immediately and I felt comfortable booking right away. We were gone for 8 days, which is a long time to leave your your little furry one. Kristin shared regular updates, often enough so that every time I thought about how she was doing, there was a picture of her face - safe and happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kristin and would definitely ask for her help again if the whole family is traveling.”
“Alba was the absolute best! She took such good care of Rusty who can be very independent and particular. She provided funny and frequent updates and gave him a great vacation home. And I got some peace of mind!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Amy boarding Ornn! His stay was a long one—9 days—and I honestly never had to worry about him while we were away. Amy sent us daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it so nice to see that Ornn was happy and enjoying himself. When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands for the entire trip. We’re so grateful to Amy and her family for taking such great care of him and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog!”
“Kristin & Rafael were awesome!! Pogi is very shy getting to know people, but when we picked him up, it was clear that he had already bonded with them and their dogs. This was our first experience with Rover.com and Kristin & Rafael and we will be sure to have Pogi stay with them if needed in the future. Thanks! :)”
“Carol watched our Hansel for 3 days/2 nights. We were impressed from our initial meet & greet at Carol's neat, organized home. Her demeanor and experience indicated that she would provide excellent care for our pet. We received daily updates including photos that all was well, and Hansel was being his usual sweet self. At pick-up we found our boy happy, and ready to go home - we are confident he had an excellent experience with Carol. We are happy to have Carol as a resource for our future pet sitting needs.”
“This was our 2nd booking with Tom, and it went as well as the first time! Tom sent daily updates with photos, and Rex did well in his home. We look forward to booking Tom in the future.”

Hattie’s stay with Paola was fantastic. Communication, pics and videos sent throughout each day. Lovely pet friendly home with fenced back yard for lots of zoomie time. Hattie was so at home here. I could not have asked for a better or more welcoming experience. Paola is a gem! Highly recommend!
We were so happy to have Paola and her husband Sebastian watch our dog Jasper. They were both so super sweet and kind. There home was very clean and our dog was taken very good care of. Paola send pictures with updates which made me feel very at ease. I highly recommend you book a stay for your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Barnegat on Rover is $64.2 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Barnegat. 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.
98% of Barnegat 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 Barnegat 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 Barnegat 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 Barnegat.
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 Barnegat 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.
