“Laura is wonderful! Her caring nature, along with her extensive knowledge and experience make her a standout. The updates she shared throughout the night confirmed Mila was in great hands and happily integrating into a new environment. I highly recommend Laura for any pup parent!”
“Caroline was a true blessing. I haven't left my 3 year old pup alone for more than 5 hours since we adopted her. My family and I had two full days of rehearsals and performances, and Caroline provided Rosie with wonderful care. I was later than I thought I'd be picking her up and Caroline was very accommodating. Rosie is very attached to me and nervous away from me, but Caroline did a wonderful job of making her feel comfortable, and I think she actually enjoyed herself. I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience. I am so happy we've found a loving, caring sitter for Rosie.”
About: I have a golden retriever and have spent a fair amount of time working on training and going to school with her, learning from other professionals on how to properly work with her and various dog breeds. I am currently a grad student at an online university so I have a lot of flexibility to assist others and can work with anyone’s schedule. I have a fenced in back yard and a golden retriever to keep your furbaby company. We have a crate if needed, doggy first aid kits, bath supplies and a ton of toys for your dog to play with.
About: I am very prepared for puppies and have a fenced yard for dogs! Have a cat? They’ll have their own room, if comfortable the Catio is open during warm months! I work remotely and I have a set schedule during the day /night I feed everyone in the morning/afternoon/night. Dogs go out every 3 hours! I have a separate room for animals that would come in! I also have a catio and a cat room but only if they are comfortable. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to play! My lab loves to have playmates! But if your dog is nervous around other dogs. They do not need to meet
“Highly recommend Jill and Scott's doggy daycare experience. My 7 year old Frenchie thoroughly enjoyed her stay on two different days while we were visiting Bucknell University for my daughter's graduation. Jill was flexible, warm, knowledgeable and reassuring. We had a brief meet and greet with her Doodle at drop off the first day, and Sawyer was relaxed and happy at pick up. On the second visit, Sawyer eagerly ran right inside! Thank you for making our college graduation stress-free and fun for our pup! 😊”
“We’ve used Beth and the past and already have days booked in the future! She’s great with the dogs and we love that she’s so careful introducing the days “group” to each other when a new dog comes into the house! Thank you, Beth!”
“I am very particular with my pup and her safety and I never feel nervous bringing her to Megan's place. She exercises her well and having other pups around helps to socialize my pup! Megan is top notch when it comes to help with training as well! She stays familiar with the rules I have for my dog and makes sure my dog is following the same rules in her home. Since my dog has been taken care of by Megan, she has learned how to walk better on a leash, learned new tricks and also reacts better with other dogs. Megan is extremely knowledgeable about dogs. This is the best doggy daycare I could ask for, perfect for any pup that doesn't want to be left at home, wants to learn new tricks, needs some or a lot of exercise, needs socialization with other dogs, needs some mind stimulation and much more. For all that Megan does, this doggy daycare is an absolute steal for the price!!”
“Melissa was absolutely wonderful caring for our pup. She watched our boy for the day and I never had any doubt that he would not be well taken care of. Melissa is a great communicator and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Would highly recommend if you are looking for someone who is reliable, kind, and a dog lover.”
About: I have taken care of over 150 dogs throughout the last 10 years walking them at my hometown in Princeton, New Jersey. I am mother to a small golden retriever named Milo. I have lots of free time as a second semester senior! I’ll walk the dog any day/time. I will treat your dog as amazing as my own! The clients home is the most important thing to me. Keeping to safe and clean is a priority. You won’t be disappointed with results.
“Our dog had a great time with Tina and her dogs! We received picture and video updates and know that our dog had lots of play time with Tina and her dogs as she took a very long nap after she was back home. 🙂”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet parent currently sharing my home with 3 cats, 2 dogs, a bunny, and a chinchilla. My family lovingly calls me the cat whisperer—but the truth is, animals of all kinds seem to feel at ease around me. With a lifetime of caring for pets, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to look after your furry (or fluffy!) family members. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or special care routines, I provide the same love and attention I give my own pets. I’m here to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch—I'd love to meet your pets! I work from home and have a pretty flexible work schedule so your dog will be able to go outside multiple times a day, or whenever it needs to! While I have a large, open yard, it is unfenced—so for everyone’s safety, all visiting dogs are supervised at all times and never left outside unattended. My own two dogs are crate trained, and I use crates or safe indoor spaces as needed to ensure a calm and secure environment for every pet in my care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Jersey Shore commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 PA 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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 22 sitters in Jersey Shore, 90% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
