“Trupti and her family were very friendly and provided an amazing stay for our high energy beagle. Trupti was very prompt on sending updates and was keen on knowing all the things about my dog to make sure my dog feels like home. They have a huge secured backyard which is a huge plus. Would love to come again for dog boarding.”

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!”

“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”

She was very flexible with our drop off time when we needed to leave a day early and also with pickup when our flight was delayed. She also sent us a video and picture after we dropped her off, which put us at ease. We would definitely use Elina again to watch Mya.”

About: I have loved and cared for animals since childhood. I grew up with my Doberman, Orlik, and later had two cats, Mia and Musya. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for pets and I’m always happy to help friends and others when they need someone they can trust with their pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while they are with me I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need. I can adjust my routine based on each pet’s individual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s usual routine and do my best to keep it consistent. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I have a fenced yard and will always provide a clean, comfortable, and caring environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that every pet is different, so I give them the time, attention, and personal care they need to feel safe and comfortable.

“Jess is just awesome! She made me feel at ease to leave my fur baby for nearly 2 weeks, and he was right at home with her and received the best care. Jess sent pics and video updates which warmed my heart and I was able to see Chex was having a great time- getting a lot of snuggles and love! I definitely reccomend Jess and plan to have her sit for us again if needed in the future. Thanks so much Jess 🥰”

“Excellent experience. Frankie has never been left overnight or gone to a daycare so we were so worried. Frankie had a blast and looked happy and playful in all the photos. He was happy and his same ole playful self when we picked him up. It was a seamless transition at drop off and pickup. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend.”

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.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Freehold

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Freehold is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $54 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,516 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Freehold. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Freehold 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 Freehold 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 Freehold.

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 Freehold. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 Freehold 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.
