Luz and Alessandro are kind and loving and responsible dog lovers. They have a fenced and gated yard. A wooded trail almost in their back yard that they would walk my Daisy girl through. My dog loves to run and catch frisbees. I received videos of her getting that activity she loves so much. While we appreciate this, what stands out is their response to keeping my dog safe. Luz and Alessandro had a repeat 2nd dog reserved to stay a few days later. However, and unfortunately that dog showed some aggression towards Our dog. They would not accept the dog keeping. My husband and I appreciated their strong stance on this. So important to feel that your dog is in great hands. Thank you two so much. You made our personal situation better. I will recommend these two.

We had such a wonderful experience! Our Goldendoodle was so well cared for and she absolutely loved playing with their son. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was treated like part of the family. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. We’re so grateful for the loving care and great communication! We will definitely book again!

Gabby took such good care of our puppy! It was our first time leaving her anywhere for a family vacation. The whole time she kept us updated with pictures and videos. She was so well taken care of and had so much fun. We will definitely be using again! So very caring of our fur baby all week!

Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!

About: I have had dogs for over 30 years. From border collies, Rottweilers, pit bulls, Australian cattle/Sheppard and various other breeds. While I am new to rover, I am not new to caring for dogs. I have had many friends entrust me with their dogs for days to weeks at a time. My wife and I currently have a 30 lbs mix breed named Riley. She loves walks on the beach and playing with other dogs. I have a large fenced in back yard that is perfect for dogs to run and play in. I also live in a quiet neighborhood with wooded trails near by perfect for long walks. Currently I am between finishing helicopter flight school and starting my new job as a helicopter tour pilot. My schedule open daily for pet care Safety and trust are my top priorities. I have a large fenced in yard that is perfect for your dog to play and run with my dog Riley. Since every dog has their own unique personality, I will be sure to learn their individual needs and wants. Whether it’s playing in the yard, walks around the neighborhood or walks on the beach, I will always make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable.

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.

Gina was great! We booked last minute and she was so nice about it. She sent updates and photos throughout the visit. When we came to pick up Riley, our pup was happy as a clam and immediately fell asleep in the car. We definitely plan to reach out to Gina again when we are in the area.

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 :)!!

Linda was wonderful and watched our 1 year old dog while we vacationed for the week. She took the time to send plenty of photos and took our dog on many fun walks around the neighborhood each day! Our dog was a rescue and tends to be very nervous and cautious in new situations. Linda took extra care to make sure he was happy and comfortable each day. I highly recommend booking with Linda!

My large 2 yr old doodle pup Rooney was a repeat client of Jonathan's this summer. He's very nice, dependable, flexible & has reasonable rates. He had great communication on logistics as well as providing updates on Roo. He was very accommodating with early morn./late night pick-ups/drop-offs which was much appreciated. I trusted that Roo was well cared for & having fun with walks & playtime in the big fenced yard.

From our initial conversation I felt so comfortable with Jessica. She's very warm, kind and personable and my pup Xerxes enjoyed his time with her so much, he didnt want to leave! I would definitely hire Jessica again and highly recommend her.

Jessica was great! She took great care of my big guy (95 LB Mastiff/Hound mix) Frankie, taking him on several walks a day as well as making sure he got his daily medication. I received updates everyday that included pictures and videos. Frankie did have some separation anxiety but Jess made sure to spend lots of time with him to make him feel comfortable. Couldn't recommend her more!

Jess is the best and takes care of my dog the way I would. I know he is in great hands when staying with her and I feel completely at ease. This last time she even administered his eye drops without any issues and I’m beyond grateful for her 💗 Chexy can’t wait to see you again!! Thank you 😊

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lakewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

There are 1,470 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lakewood. About 90% of Lakewood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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 pet, 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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
