“We left our two pups with Bob and they couldn’t have been in better hands. We were anxious to board them since they’ve never been away from us, but Bob put as at ease with text and picture updates on how they were getting along. We absolutely plan to use Bob again and would gladly recommend him to anyone that wants worry free pet boarding!”
“Anmol and Tripti took such great care of our Luna. This was Luna's first experience being left overnight and she was so happy to meet them and stay with them. She came back happy and relaxed. She clearly was well cared for and shown a great deal of attention. They are truly loving and caring people who are very responsible and professional. I give them my highest recommendation.”
“Brian was excellent with our 2 dogs. His yard is large for dogs who need to run. He sent us multiple pictures so we knew they were happy and well cared for while we were away. Would absolutely recommend him.”
“Geremy was a wonderful and attentive dog sitter. I knew Hachi was in great hands the moment I left him. While he was in Geremy’s care, he was taken on several walks a day, played with and monitored frequently. Geremy responded quickly and provided daily updates so I knew how Hachi was doing. I would recommend Geremy to anybody who is looking for a responsible and trustworthy sitter.”
“My anxious pup with a complicated medication routine was well cared for. He settled in quickly and his routine was followed as requested. Jaimie kept in good communication throughout his stay. Will happily book again!”
“Rosemery was excellent with my King Charles cavalier!. It was my first time using the app and leaving my three year old dog with someone who wasn’t family. She was amazing with keeping in touch and sending pictures. My dog looked so happy and comfortable to be cared for by her. I would highly recommend her and will def use her again in the future!!”
“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
“Absolutely fabulous is all I can say!!! She is very dog knowledgeable and has a fantastic set up. Fenced yard and pet friendly home. She wanted to know what Stanley’s usual sleeping arrangements were so he could be accommodated and kept as comfortable as possible. I got many daily pics and communication. I felt so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her and her family.I definitely don’t think he missed me at all and that was a great feeling knowing he was having so much fun!!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone 100% without any hesitation!! Thanks Rebecca for all your knowledge and kindness!!!!”
“What a wonderful, caring person Karen is! We so appreciate her loving care of our elderly pug. Updates and pictures were provided often, and I know that he felt right at home with her and her two sweet doggos.”
“Yvette is the BEST. She truly cares about your pup just like her own. This is my second time having her watch my dog and she will be the only person I send my dog to. She goes above and beyond and loves your pet like her own. She even sewed up his toy that he chewed up!! Thank you so so much for everything!!”
“Our pup is happy while at Meaghan's and even does a few things that she doesn't do with anyone else (like get up the couch and cuddle). Meaghan is accommodating of our weird diet for Asha, and always sharing status updates. Can't ask for more!”
“Thank you and your entire family once again for taking such great care of my gangsters; all the love, walks and attention they are getting while staying with you is absolutely impressive. A separate thank you for the regular updates and the peace of mind thay bring.”
“JoEllen was the absolute best with my dog Daisy! The love and care that she received during her stay was above and beyond what I had ever expected. JoEllen made me feel at ease with leaving Daisy for the first time with someone other than a family member. She treated Daisy as if she was her own dog. I can not thank her enough for all that she had done. I will definitely us her again without a doubt!”
“Grace is amazing, professional, and took very good care of my 14 year old lab. She went above and beyond our expectations to ensure my dog felt comfortable! The only downside was or dog didn’t want to leave her! 🩷”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Colts Neck can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Colts Neck 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 Colts Neck.
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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Colts Neck 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
