“Corrine took great care of our two dogs. We really appreciated her sending us pictures of them twice a day. Our dogs enjoyed being with Corrinne's Doggie Day Care regulars for a week. They ran around so much that when they got home, they spent the rest of the day napping. Thank you Corrine!”

“Absolutely fabulous is all I can say!!! She is very dog knowledgeable and has a fantastic set up. Fenced yard and pet friendly home. She wanted to know what Stanley’s usual sleeping arrangements were so he could be accommodated and kept as comfortable as possible. I got many daily pics and communication. I felt so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her and her family.I definitely don’t think he missed me at all and that was a great feeling knowing he was having so much fun!!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone 100% without any hesitation!! Thanks Rebecca for all your knowledge and kindness!!!!”

“Jenn provided the best care for our recently adopted french bulldog, Dr. Pepper. She kept intouch with me all weekend and sent lots of pictures. He seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jenn and her family. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Bailey was very happy to stay and play with Georgia. Danielle was so friendly and welcoming, it was easy to know she would take good care of my pup. She also has an awesome big fenced in backyard for the doggies to run around and get their energy out. Thank you!”

“Very appreciative to have taken my pup last minute when I flew home for a wedding. Was great with my pup and he loved playing with her kiddos. Thankful that she was able to give him his medications when asked. Thank you so much, definitely would recommend and use again when back in the area!!”

“Rudy loved his Rover vacation!!!! Up from GA going with family to the beach in NJ a co-worker recommended Rover. Kristin was the best ever! We visited about a 2 wks before and she let Rudy run around her house and backyard. Rudy fell in love with Kristin. All I worried about was that Rudy wouldn’t want to come home. He was happy to see us but already misses Kristin. I am hoping Kristin will be able to care for Rudy next summer. Thank you Kristin for caring for Rudy and giving my family a stress free week. Loved all the pictures you were kind enough to update us with! Rudy, Ellen and Sean”

“Our first time leaving our Charli girl with someone other than family. Alba put my mind to ease right from the start. Charli was not only well taken care of she went to a puppy birthday party and played with other pups her size. Alba sent me updates, pictures and videos daily which also made me feel confident Charli was is great care!! Thank you Alba Charli would love to visit again Leslie”


“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika. They got along well with her dog Piper and I could tell by the pictures they were comfortable and enjoyed their time playing, snuggling and sleeping in their normal comfortable spots. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”

“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!”

“Thomas was a great host for my big boy Koba! Thomas sent us updates and pictures durning his stay. We knew Koba was enjoying himself testing out the different beds, bones, toys and exploring his fenced in yard. He had a great staycation and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him Thomas again.”


“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”


“Patricia was excellent. She responded to my request very quickly, and was able to watch Teeko that very weekend. Went for a meet and greet to meet her and Jagger after our request, and had no trouble scheduling that even within a small timeframe. Patricia was very patient with Teeko as he got to know Jagger, and as he was his usual hyper husky self pacing around the house and sniffing every thing during the meet and greet. She is a confident dog sitter, easy to work with, and very kind hearted. She sent us a really cute picture of Teeko enjoying his stay, which we really enjoyed seeing during our little weekend trip. Her adult daughter was helpful as well, and took Teeko for a nice walk which of course makes Teeko a very happy camper. I highly recommend Patty and definitely plan to use her again in the future!”
“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.”

“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 :)”

“Christine was so great with our puppy, Callie. Callie was there for a full day / night. Christine made sure to keep Callie entertained the entire time. She brought her out with her and kept up with her energy! She provided lots of exercise including walks and a large fenced in backyard. Callie is a puppy and still is not used to sleeping alone, but Christine made sure to stay with Callie until she was calm and comfortable enough for bed time. We will definitely be reaching out to her again to sit!”

“Deb is a fabulous sitter for my two senior dogs! She paid attention to their cues and ways. She let us know how they did each day. She gave us a full report when we returned, too. They were happy to see us when we picked them up. Thank you for taking such good care of our family members, Deb!”

This was the first time leaving my dog in Cara’s care, and I could not be happier with the experience from the very beginning she was professional, caring, and attentive to my dogs needs. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable and compassionate pet sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again thank you Cara for taking such wonderful care of Moose

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ocean Gate on Rover is $73.26 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 635 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ocean Gate. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of Ocean Gate sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ocean Gate landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ocean Gate 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 Ocean Gate.
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.
You and your Ocean Gate 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.
