“My pup Django loved his time with Carol Ann! She is the sweetest and spent lots of time with him - he even got sick to his stomach halfway through the trip and she made sure to nurse him back to health. Had no worries at all while away on our one week vacay!”
“Another awesome sit with Mark and his family! Pearl loves them all so much. Mark is super nice and reliable, his kids give Pearl lots of attention, and their enclosed back yard is a plus. Thanks again, Mark!”
“Fiona is great! Our little Sherlock boy loved her! He is an old man, set in his ways but he was very comfortable with her. She sent pics and updates throughout his stay and even got him new treats. He has a nervous habit of drinking a lot of water when in a new environment. She immediately picked up on it and messaged me and watched him as he settled down into normal drinking levels. Rover and Fiona in particular were a great solution for us while camping at a no-dogs campground.”
“Keith and his wife Jennifer are amazing with my greyhounds and my greys truly love them. They are a special breed and former racers, so they have some personalities. They always come back so content and happy. They are previous dog owners of large breeds, so I feel very comfortable to leave my sticks with them. Highly recommend.”
“Roxanne did an excellent job taking care of my dog. I was worried about her being anxious since I’ve never left her with a stranger for a whole week before, but Roxanne made her feel right at home. My dog is almost 10 years old and needs medication and an ointment and Roxanne was able to administer them with no issue. She also maintained consistent communication with me and sent me lots of pics. I knew my dog was in good hands and I will definitely be using Roxanne in the future!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Carly took such great care of our dog and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which really helped us relax knowing our pup was in good hands. Our dog looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Looking for some pets to take care of in the Monmouth County area. I am a college student at Monmouth University but I am looking to help out any fur babies in my free time. I finished up my 4th season of soccer with Monmouth University and now with my added free time I would like to help out anyone in need. I live in a welcoming home with a lot of girls who love all types of animals. I am willing to make any accommodations to make your pets feel safe!
“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 :)!!”
“Jennifer did a great job caring for our 8 year-old dog Marty. I received many pictures and it looked like they had some great adventures together. I would highly recommend Jennifer to other dog families!”
About: Experienced pet sitter available for on call drop-ins, daily walks and overnight care on request. All sized dogs are welcome! I can provide feedings, walks, baths and medicine application. For cats, I can provide feedings, litter box cleaning, light grooming and medicine application. I also provide house sitting e.g. collecting mail and packages, light cleaning, plant care, etc if you are away. If your dog needs interaction with other pups, I am more than happy to take them to the local dog park or plan a play date with other dogs I walk for socialization. Let me know exactly what service you are looking for and I'd be more than happy to speak with you about it! Looking forward to hearing from you. Pet care is a top priority and I base my schedule around it. Morning, afternoon and evening walks are a priority along with a feeding schedule. If the client has fenced in yard, lots of playtime will happen back there. If they like to stay inside we can also play in there as well. The dogs can sleep wherever they feel most comfortable besides my bed. I do not crate unless requested to.
“This was our 2nd booking with Tom, and it went as well as the first time! Tom sent daily updates with photos, and Rex did well in his home. We look forward to booking Tom in the future.”
“Bridgette was a great host for my pup-son! When i dropped him off, the first thing she said was, “I’ve been excited all day waiting for him!” How comforting that was to hear?! She sent ample pictures and even videos! She took him to the dog park, on long walks, and challenged him with puzzles. My little fella usually takes a while before he feels comfortable eating with a new sitter but he had no issues with her! She even fed him his motion sickness medication before I picked him up. I would recommend Bridgette to any and all of my friends/family. Your pup will be in good hands. Added bonus that she was able to squeeze him in on short notice!”
“Jessica did great job in taking care of Rocky and made sure Rocky had a comfortable stay. She was extremely helpful & was flexible to accommodate our schedule. Really appreciated.”
“Laurie, her three kids and two dogs were very good with our dog. She send nearly daily photos and was very flexible with her approach. 5+ stars. We will absolutely use her and family again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Como
Brian was so nice. We received updates and pictures regularly and can tell Kingston and Irie were getting so much love and affection while we were away! Kingston even ate his food right away, which means he felt comfortable. We will absolutely ask Brian to dog sit for us in the future. We highly recommend him!
Alexis was awesome with our doggie Kala. I would recommend her highly! She is very kind, VERY communicative in a way that made me feel relaxed that my dog was in good hands and having a good time. My dog and her dog enjoyed playing which is a big plus for us. Overall great experience.
Carol Ann and John happily accepted Juno in a pinch when I had a circumstance that required last-minute hosting. During my time away, they sent me photos and notes to let me know that she was having fun and that all was going well at their home. Their care for Juno and understanding of her energetic needs made me so comfortable. I am glad they had her for this weekend away!!! Thank you.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lake Como is $82 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $45 and $91 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 6,150 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lake Como. 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.
94% of sitters in Lake Como 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 Lake Como 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 Lake Como.
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 Lake Como. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 Lake Como 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.
