About: I genuinely love for animals of all sizes and personalities. My experience goes beyond dogs and cats—I’ve also cared for smaller pets, including bunnies and guinea pigs, so I understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves gentle, attentive care. Growing up in Ukraine, I had a cat who was a special part of my life and helped me develop a lifelong appreciation for the companionship animals bring. After moving to New York, I also had a dog with my partner, which gave me firsthand experience with the daily responsibilities of dog ownership and the importance of keeping a pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Since my schedule is flexible, I can offer plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or happiest relaxing in a cozy spot. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to their routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Some days I work from the office and some days I work from home, and sometimes I have flexible schedule where I have to leave the house for a few hours and then come back (I work in real estate and have flexible schedule). Also my mom works from home and she will be helping me with pet care. We live together so this way we have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day - and someone is always around. I can easily accommodate their usual schedules, from regular walks and mealtimes to play sessions and cozy breaks. I want every pet in my care to feel relaxed, secure, and loved, just as they would at home. Every pet has a unique personality, and I believe the best care starts with understanding what makes them happy and comfortable. Before a stay, I like to learn about your pet’s age, breed, temperament, daily routine, feeding schedule, and favorite activities. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, medications, fears, or triggers so I can provide attentive, individualized care. My goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible and ensure your pet feels safe, understood, and at ease.
“Shalhevet was very kind enough to watch my dog on New Year’s Eve in such a short notice. Not only that, she was very loving and attentive to my dog. I could tell that my dog was very comfortable immediately when we arrived at her house! I also appreciate that she was so easy to communicate (quick response to my text messages) and very flexible in drop off/pick up times. I will definitely ask her to watch my dog next time we are in the area. Thank you so much Shalhevet!!!”
“Eduardo took great care of my big personality dachshund! I needed last minute care and they were so quick and responsive. They sent photos during the stay and my pup had a great time! Will definitely use them in the future!”
“Rachel took great care of Val as always! I got lots of updates and pictures throughout my trip. Val has really grown to love Rachel and her family. Rachel’s place really is her second home.”
“Shannon provided us updates along the way and cared for our dog like it was her own. Our dog was very happy in every picture! We will definitely use Shannon again. Shannon, a big THANK YOU for giving us a peace of mind and taking care of Jingle.”
“Nan sent frequent photos and videos and took great care of our dog. She integrated our dog into her family while we were out of town. I would be happy to leave my girl with Nan anytime.”
“Angelica took amazing care of our puppa. It was the first time going away since we got him. She was wonderful with communication with us which helped ease our worry. She treated our puppa like one of her own. She is wonderful!”
“Wonderful experience from start to finish. Excellent care was taken of my high anxiety smaller dog! All Accommodations were provided without issues. The communication was on going and thorough and my dog was clearly comfortable in the environment provided. I will be a repeat customer! Your dog will be safe and very loved here!”
“Meg and her family took very great care of our precious Belle!!! Meg sent us pictures and updates throughout Belle's stay with them!!! Thank you and hopefully some time in the near future you can watch her again for us!!!”
“Jaimie was great! She was very solicitous of Angel and celebrated her 10th birthday with her. She kept in touch with pictures of Angel and her pets. I felt very comfortable that Angel was in excellent hands.”
“Gavriel was absolutely amazing with my dog, Blue! She accepted my last-minute booking without hesitation and was so accommodating when I needed to extend the stay due to an unexpected emergency. She kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommend Gavriel to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate!”
“Great experience! My dog was well cared for over the weekend, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. Communication was great, and I would definitely recommend this sitter and book again!”
“Brian was so great to work with! He and his family were were amazing and gave us peace of mind to leave our boy Diego over the holiday. Brian wasn’t the closest sitter available but choosing him was the easiest decision we’ve made. We’ve used Rover for several years and for several different pets and I can assure you, your pets are in EXCELLENT hands here!! We are grateful to have found Brian and will absolutely use him again!”
“Ravon was absolutely amazing with my kitten, Cashmere! As a first-time cat owner, I was naturally nervous about leaving my 15-week-old kitten for an entire week, but Ravon immediately put my mind at ease. She provided daily updates, along with photos and videos, so I always knew how Cashmere was doing. Within just a couple of days, Cashmere had completely settled in. She was comfortable enough to explore, play, and show her curious personality, which told me she felt safe and well cared for. It was clear that Ravon was patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys caring for animals. When I picked Cashmere up, she was healthy, happy, and relaxed. Knowing that my kitten was in such capable hands allowed me to fully enjoy my trip without worrying about her. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I would wholeheartedly trust Ravon to care for Cashmere again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!”
“She was amazing ! She took care of my dog yaya , walked her , bathed her , was very sweet to her and made her feel at home , she went out of her way above and beyond of what I was expecting , she even went out and spent her own money on pads my dog needed , I couldn’t make it on the day I was suppose to pick her up and she pushed her schedule to take care of her another extra day , she is decently someone I will continue to use , she was great and I felt really comstarable knowing yaya was with her and that’s a rare thing”
“Danielle did a remarkable job sitting Basil over the holiday weekend. Basil was very well taken care of and was sad to leave when I came to pick him up. Danielle was also incredibly flexible; she allowed us to pick up Basil at a different date / time than we previously agreed upon. I couldn’t recommend Danielle enough :)!!”
About: Since birth, I have lived with absolutely different animals and I believe that a house without an animal has no soul. I had an experience with a newborn puppy who was thrown out at birth, I fed him from a bottle when his eyes were not yet open, nursed him until three months and found him a loving and permanent family. Once I tamed a cat who was abandoned, offended by street cats and in the end he found salvation for himself in the form of my family and currently still lives with my family. For me, animals are not just a thing in the house, but an equal member of the family, created for respect and love. Now I don't work and have the opportunity to spend day and night with your pet. At certain times I can be away, this is discussed on the fact Our building has a fenced yard, and in our apartment lives a little man of 3 years old, who loves animals and will be the best company for them. Also in our house there is love, mutual understanding and respect for each other and the guests of our house.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Belford is $60

Rick and his property was perfect for our 6 month old Corgi. He has a massive property for your dog to run around safely, which is very hard to find in Monmouth County. He sent us multiple videos throughout the stay to keep us updated and at ease. You can 100% trust Rick to take great care of your dog, Highly recommend!!
Sean & Dakota were amazing with my dog, Kiki! They treated her like a queen during her stay and were super patient with her as she normally takes time to warm up in new environments. I received daily photos/videos and updates. Highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again in the future! Thank you, Sean & Dakota! You’re both the best!
Steven and Meredith took wonderful care of our kitten, Oreo, while we were away. They were responsive, thoughtful, and kept us updated with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear Oreo was in caring hands. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!
The best dog sitter that anybody could ever have. He’s very loving to my animals. He does all extra things that I don’t ask him to do like baths. I do believe he plays with them and has a good time with them and makes them feel at home. I know if she’s watching them that they’re safe.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
