“This was our first experience with ROVER & MEG who had our boy this weekend. We cannot say enough! As this was the first time we were nervous however MEG calmed that down immediately by sending photos throughout the day all weekend. As the time went by we could see from the photos our boy made himself comfortable and felt safe. 🙌🙌🙌!!! MEG was also great and immediate with communication which also was a big plus for us. We absolutely would request MEG again for our guy.”
“Thank you to Max and family for easing our minds, since this was the first time boarding Rocky. We were very concerned of how Rock would react. Max and his family was very warm and caring and Rocky was very comfortable (as were we!). Whenever we need to board Rocky in the future, we will definitely reach out to Max's family.”
“Anmol and Trupti are very loving sitters and my bichon Pye thrived quite happily under their care during my whole week away. I highly recommend them!!!”
“Excellent experience with boarding our senior dog. Because of our dog's age, we usually travel with him, but in this case that wasn't possible. We met with Brian and his wife before our trip, which gave us an opportunity to see how our dog would fare while we were away, and we felt very comfortable with dropping him off with them. They did a great job taking some special instructions into consideration, given his age. You can tell right away that they are caring "dog people". They sent pictures while we were away, and were available for messaging during the entire trip. We would definitely recommend them as sitters.”
“Meaghan was wonderful with my 10 year old Shitzu. She was friendly, loving, and easy to work with. My dog loved her and felt part of her family instantly. I felt like I was leaving him with family. She has a nice house and large fenced in backyard. I was very impressed with Meaghan.”
About: I have had dogs all my life and am super comfortable with taking care of your furry family member whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch, or if they just want some cuddles! I also love practicing commands with dogs (and of course giving them a reward after) and can distribute medication to dogs if necessary. I have been dog sitting on Rover since 2023 and absolutely love that I have this opportunity to create a special bond with so many different dogs and cats. I am happy to treat your pet like my own and go above and beyond so that you feel comfortable leaving your pets at home! I am in school full time in Bethlehem, PA but will be in Freehold NJ and available from Nov 26-30 and Dec 14-Jan 3! I’m currently am in grad school at Moravian University, and am available for drop ins and walks with your furry ones! Please do not hesitate to reach out about specific needs :) At your home I guarantee you that your dog is in the best hands and I will treat your pup just like my own! I am super flexible with what the owner wants and can adjust my services to whatever is best for you and your dog/dogs! I also will send pictures to reassure you that your pup is happy and doing great, because I first-hand know that being away from your furry pets is hard!!
About: I have 25 years bird, cat, guinea pig & dog experience. It would be my pleasure to take care of your pets. I am an active animal rescue volunteer that is passionate about caring for animals. I currently have a 14-year old diabetic cockapoo (I'm comfortable administering insulin and other meds) and a 11-year old shih tzu puppy mill mother. My family and I have participated in the Pets with Wings program and brought homeless puppies back from St. Thomas. I also volunteer with Happy Homes and clean and socialize the cats at Petco Marlboro every Wednesday morning. I work a flexible job and set my own schedule I can be available when needed mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends when your pet needs care. I will arrive at your home on time and follow your detailed instructions for caring for your pets. I can clean cages, litter boxes, walk pets, feed/water, administer medications and brush if needed.
“Xavier and his family took great care of my dog Emma while we were away. You could tell she was treated well and enjoyed her time there and having a fenced in yard is perfect for any dog that likes to be outside and roam. He’s a great communicator and would definitely use him again.”
“Paul & Kathryn took great care of Tyson and sent me many pictures, he really enjoyed being with them and their children. I had no concerns leaving him in their care and will continue to reach out them as needed...”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. From large breeds to small breeds. I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family for years. Home all the time to spend playing in yard, going on long walks and caring for your pup. Looking forward to becoming your dog’s new best friend. I also have years of experience caring for reptiles. I have a fenced in yard with pool. I also have a very friendly 13 year old wheaten terrier. Plenty of space outside and frequent walks and playtime.
“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.”
“I never worry at all when we leave our young dog with Bob. He truly treats him like he was his own. Very attentive and accommodating. He has a wonderful fenced in yard where our pup can run around to his heart content without fear of getting out. Our Teddy is very social and Bob arranges some play dates with neighboring dogs which is great. Bob always sends pics and updates us throughout the stay. I highly recommend Bob for a stress free time away knowing your pet will be in very good hands.”
“At first I was a little nervous to leave my guy Tedy but Monika calmed my fears. She took wonderful care of Tedy and he was happy. I will definitely use Monika’s services in the future!”
“Margaret is so nice and made us feel comfortable right away. She kept us updated on our pup throughout the stay. She’s very good with communication, confirmed the stay and answered us right away. We would definitely have our dog stay with her again.”
“Samantha was great! We communicated every day that we were away. She would give us a daily morning text to let us know how our pups spent the night. Felt very comfortable leaving our dogs and plan on using her again when we take another trip later this month.”
“Lenny was very warm and welcoming. She took good care of Oreo and kept me posted with daily activities with messages, pictures and videos. Oreo was very happy. Will definitely keep Oreo with Lenny again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Freehold on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,557 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Freehold. 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.
94% of Freehold 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 Freehold 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 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.
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.
