“I can’t recommend JoEllen enough. From the moment of our meet/greet you could see her genuine care and love for animals. Enzo loved her from the minute she welcomed us into her home, which is immaculately clean by the way. She updated us with so many photos of their time together. She took him to explore and enjoy different beaches and parks as well as her beautiful backyard. My husband and I have never left one of our dogs with anyone but family before, let alone our 4month old Rottweiler puppy. She gave us complete peace of mind and made us all feel like family. She is extremely professional, caring and reliable. We were so excited to pick him up we missed him so much, but he was so happy and content and wanted to stay even longer lol He also smelt amazing from the bath she gave him. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her the next time we need to go out of town.”
“Michael is the best! My dogs have grown to know him very well and are actually happy when I take them over to his place. This is great because they have never liked me leaving then at boarding places. I am pretty sure they don’t miss me as much as I miss them when I travel!!”
“Lexi & Prashanth were fantastic! They sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend and took great care of my dog. He was happy and clearly loved his stay. I’d absolutely use them again and highly recommend them!”
“Lorrie did an amazing job with atlas and took great care of him while I was away. I would definitely use her again and trust that my dog will be looked after and cared for properly. She sent pictures and gave updates everyday which made me feel even more at ease.”
“Our sweet rescue beagle suffers from a tough past which undoubtedly led to his separation anxiety. My husband and I wanted to take a 12 hour trip to Bear Mountain via Seastreak. We were concerned leaving him with someone new for such a long duration. However, upon meeting Krystal my fears were allayed. She is everything one can ask for to entrust your beloved pet: patient, energetic, compassionate and considerate. Our boy came back content, relaxed snd tired. He also got along beautifully with her dog Kilo. And, our beagle even came home with a goodie bag of organic homemade treats—-star treatment. Thanks Krystal for a wonderful day for our pet and his owners.”
“Aileen and Bobby were amazing dog sitters! Very responsive and always sending pictures and updates. Tug was such a sweet boy too & a great playmate for my dog. I think my dog slept for 2 days straight after he came home he had such a good time, thanks again Aileen!”
“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 :)!!”
“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!”
About: Animals are my passion and I would love to be the one to care for yours when needed. I am extremely flexible Monday through Friday and willing to work with your animals. I also have experience within the veterinary field for over 1 year as well as working with animals for more then 5 years. I have grown up amongst animals my entire life and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends!
“Mariana was absolutely amazing. She made me feel so comfortable with leaving her my little loved one. She provided me photos, videos, and updates and made Jettson feel like family. He was very attached to her after we departed and that spoke volumes to me. She stuck to his feeding schedule, had him play outside, took him for walks, and kept him entertained. We are so lucky to have had such a wonderful person and family watch over our loved one. She went above and beyond for us and was very understanding and accommodating.”
“Colleen and Brent took excellent care of our pup for a week while we were out of the country. Their dog Mango became quick friends with our dog. Colleen was reliable and communicative throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dog was well cared for and comfortable. Highly recommended.”
“Michelle was fantastic! She was able to accommodate us on extremely short notice and saved our vacation. She kept us up to date with pictures and videos of our cats and really kept our minds at ease while we were away. Will gladly book with her again!”
“Rachel took care of my dog Daisy this past weekend. She sent me frequent updates including photos and videos. Daisy had the best time at Rachel’s home along with her dog and cat. Rachel took Daisy on long walks, to the dog park and the beach. I knew Daisy was in good hands with Rachel and would highly recommend her.”

Another great visit with Ken! Frankie (our one year old French bulldog) absolutely loves this Petsitter and runs to the car to go visit. Ken keeps in touch, sends pictures, has a very pet friendly home and is an amazing pet lover. We are very lucky to have found him
Richard and Barbara took excellent care of Chloe! I could tell from the early original meet and greet that it was going to be a welcoming, comfortable and loving home for Chloe while I was traveling. And , while I was away they sent photos with comments to prove it! I definitely plan to book with them again!!!
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!!
I was so fortunate to come across Julie‘s profile and she seemed like the type of person that really loves animals. This was my first time leaving my dog at someone’s house, but she made me feel so comfortable. Sending me pictures and sending me messages every day to let me know that he was doing great. She has such a beautiful home and a nice lovely backyard that he could play in so he was absolutely in heaven at her house. Julie was the best and I would recommend anybody if you’re ever apprehensive about leaving your dog with someone. No fear Julie and her home is absolutely perfect!!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Fair Haven 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 Fair Haven 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 Fair Haven.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fair Haven. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 Fair Haven 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.
