“Kristen was amazing with our Pup! First time ever leaving him in anyone else’s hands and she gave us such a peace of mind! Very communicative and we appreciated all her daily updates :)”
“I hesitate to brag on Kristen so much because I want to keep her all to ourselves!!!!! She is AMAZING!!!! Kristen will treat your pet like they were her own. She’s extremely communicative, so kind, and really gave us such incredible peace of mind while we were away. Kristen, we thank you immensely for being so fantastic to Nellie!”
“My Leah is a wonderful dog but can become sad when we leave her. Joanna was amazing!!! She was very interactive with Leah the whole time she cared for her. Took her out on walks and played with her in her back yard. She also kept me updated the whole time. Sent pictures and updates. She really cared for Leah. I would give her more stars if I could. My best experience with a Rover sitter.”
“We are very happy with the care Bowser received. From the minute Bowser arrived, it was obvious he felt very comfortable. During his stay he even learned how to use a doggie door following Kim's dog all around and playing with him. Kim did a great job and we definitely plan on using her again!”
“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”
“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”
“Great experience! Ashley has a lovely family and they did a wonderful job to take care of my dog! communication was good as well, I was receiving a daily update from Ashley and all my questions were answered almost immediately.”
“Pat is wonderful. Her love for dogs comes through from the first few minutes of talking to her. I appreciated how thorough and prepared she was for our visit and my last minute request to sit for us as we came through Atlantic City on a road trip down the East Coast. Everything was perfect! We’ll be back next time I’m in the area!”
About: I have 2 years of pet care experience and truly love spending time with animals. I enjoy caring for dogs with different personalities, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have a flexible schedule and can work with pet parents to find times that fit their pets’ needs. I am happy to help with walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I will do my best to keep your pets on their regular routine and provide them with plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if needed, and daily routines. I will make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets supervised, and provide a calm and loving environment. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands.
“Benny just had a wonderful overnight stay with Gwen and her family And that’s exactly how he was treated like one of the family I can’t thank them enough for being so kind understanding and patient with him. He is still a puppy and still learning how to be a perfect houseguest. I highly recommend this wonderful Family to anyone who wants the best care for their dog”
“Kat is the best! We are grateful for her care of Ella during the weekend, and Ella received a lot of love from her ❤️ we will for sure come back and recommend Kat in the future!”
“We will definitely rebook. The communication was great and the environment was perfect for our dogs. They were very accommodating and our dogs didn't even want to come home. I definitely recommend booking with this family.”
“Joe was an awesome sitter for our dog Sherman. He took amazing care of him , spoiled him rotten and treated him like his own pet. Communication was spectacular with numerous updates. Will recommend him to anyone who needs the best dog sitter. Thank you Joe!!”
“Andrew is, without a doubt, the best we've ever used on Rover. We have a sometimes high-energy rescue dog, and Andrew was amazing with him. He was incredibly patient and kind, and he made us feel completely at ease start to pick up. He sent us frequent photo and video updates, showing our dog happy and relaxed, and we could tell he was being treated like family. We highly recommend Andrew and will definitely be rebooking with him for all our future needs!”
“Angelina was very prompt with communication, very nice and demonstrably caring. Bodhi came with a cold/cough and she took care of his getting his pills, sent photos. In those photos he clearly looked like he was enjoying his time there with Angelina and her son. Thank you, Angelina.”
“Scott and his family were the best. Our puppy loved her stay! We would highly recommend Scott. He's very personable and has everything you need to feel comfortable and everything your dog needs to be well taken care of. He went the extra mile for our puppy and let her sleep with him because at the time she wasn't sleeping in a crate. We'll be using Scott again.”
“Rose was wonderful. She took care of Teddy so well. Her backyard is a fantastic playground for dogs. She kept in touch frequently, sent pictures and everything. When I arrived to pick Tedddy up he raced for her backdoor and not my car. I think that says it all”
“My dog Tucker stayed with Holly for 3 days the end of October. She was great, I could tell Tucker was right at home with her. He was very relaxed and calm the whole time . I would certainly use Hollies’ Services again.”

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.
97% of sitters in Long Beach 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 Long Beach 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 Long Beach.
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 Long Beach. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Long Beach 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.
