“Really great babysitter, had my dog stay with her on two night while on vacation in NJ. She was very reliable and responsive. Best sitter that we found in the area. Gave lots of updates too!”
“Lori was amazing. I've never left Duke with a sitter outside the family before and she made everything so easy. She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent beautiful photos of him. I had another sitter here who canceled juts days before, and Lori not only stepped in close to the date but was especially accommodating for what I needed. Definitely will use her again, and strongly recommend her to others.”
“This is our dogs second stay with Michael and he always has a great time. Michael makes sure he is welcomed and well cared for and gives him extra attention as he gets nervous. Always lots of others pups to keep him active while he is there.”
“Katie was wonderful sending us updates and was very flexible with drop off and pickup time. Would definitely recommend and rebook next time I’m back to Jersey”
“I can't say enough good things about Colleen. Leaving my dog Ollie behind is always a little stressful, but she made the whole experience completely worry-free. From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear how much they genuinely love animals — Ollie warmed up to them instantly.”
“Kelley took great care of our pup while we were away. She reached out frequently with updates and was quick to respond to our interactions as well. It was nice to know he was safe and well cared for.”
“This is the first time we leave our little dog Lila with a dog sitter. We left her for a day and it was a fun day for her. Jada was amazing. She spoiled her and kept us updated with pictures and texts all day long. We will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you so much Jada.”
“Absolutely wonderful!! First time leaving our Sunny and Katie and John took care of her as if she were their own. Great communication, constant pictures!! Will definitely use again!!”
“Our experience as well as our dogs experience was great! Jared was in communication with us the entire 4 day stay. We received photos and info about the dog every day which made us feel good about leaving Jameson. We would highly recommend Jared with caring for your dog!”
“Blanca took wonderful care of our 2 pups. She sent us pics and updates was flexible with pick-up and drop-off hours. They were at ease right away and seemed to have plenty of time to go out and secure space to runa nd spend some energy. Would not hesitate to board our pups with her in the future.”
About: I’ve had dogs before, so I’m comfortable managing and caring for them daily. I also grew up around about 16 dogs, which helped me develop patience, confidence, and the ability to handle different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand routines like feeding, walks, supervision, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During the school year, I’m available before and after school. I leave for school in the morning and return around 2:40 PM, so I’m dependable for afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm environment for every pet in my care. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and pay close attention to their behavior and comfort.
About: Loving and attentive family with a big fenced in yard and even bigger hearts. We have two rescues that we love and adore and can't wait to welcome your pet to our pack for a mini vacation while you play. Located in a wooded area and convenient to the AC expressway for easy drop off and pick up. Lots of trails behind our home for long shady walks. We are available for your dogs on Friday, after 5pm drop offs and can watch through the weekend with a pick up on Sunday, anytime before 5pm. Our pets are treated like family. We have lots of space, a large fenced in yard and plenty of room for the dogs to remain together or separated if need be.
“Barb is the perfect sitter. She makes both owner and pet feel completely comfortable with the separation. She takes everything into consideration including separation anxiety, health and age needs, and comfort. Her pups are amazing friends for your pet to spend time with. Highly recommend!!!”

I care for pets very well I am well aware of their needs and wants for walks food water and personal care! There is no task too difficult that I cannot handle just let us know!
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped my family care for them. Over the years, I’ve had 7 dogs and 2 cats, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m available for evening check-ins and walks during the week, and I can also board pets on weekends. My schedule allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, as well as one friendly dog and a cat who is used to being around dogs and gets along well with them. I can also crate your dog if needed and will always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide.
“Our dog Sadie spent almost 3 weeks with Dee and she appeared to really enjoy her time. Dee was great with sending pictures and providing updates. Overall, we were very happy with our experience with Dee. We would recommend her to our friends and family.”
About: Over 20 years of taking care of pets. I love cats, dogs, birds, etc. I’ve had some clients for decades. I am a pet photographer by trade but have always babysat pets on the side for fun. I am a freelance photographer, so I set my own schedule. The more notice I have for a booking the more I can reserve as much time as possible for your pet. I can easily integrate your pets schedule into mine when you hire me. I live in a condo with no back yard, but taming your pets out for many potty breaks or walks is not problem. There is also a great area with hiking trails about 10 minutes away.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Longport is CA$60

Kathleen watched my dog over the weekend while I was away at an event. I was nervous, but she kept me updated with photos & msg the entire time. Her msgs help me realize that my dog was in good hands. I will definitely book again with Kathleen. She was sooo good to my dog
Shannon was such a help for us at the last minute, on a road trip to the shore when we needed pet care on really short notice. She was incredibly accommodating with us, and did a great job watching our dog for a night. Shannon is responsive, communicative, and friendly, and it was clear that our dog was having a great time when we picked her up. I'd highly recommend Shannon for watching your pets while down the shore!

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.
96% of sitters in Longport 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 Longport 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 Longport.
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 Longport. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 Longport 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.
