“This was our first time using Rover for our rescue, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience! Max and his family were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we felt comfortable leaving him in their care from the start. They sent us pictures and updates regularly throughout his stay, which gave us such peace of mind while we were traveling knowing that he was happy, comfortable, and being well taken care of. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care they gave him and would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”

About: I love all animals, even reptiles! When I was a teenager I worked at a kennel for a summer job and fell in love with every breed of dog. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits and small critters my entire life and even backyard chickens! My current pup is a senior boxer/Shepard mix. I am comfortable giving medication and caring for senior and special needs pets. I have a full time job so am available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I work local so if pet sitting at my house, I can check in at lunch time. I have a fenced in backyard and crates if needed. My senior dog is chill and is great with dogs and cats if caring for you pet in my home. For short stays, pets usually do best in their own home with visits from me up to three times a day depending on their needs.

Travis went above and beyond anything I could possibly ask for watching my dog for the weekend. He clearly has a passion for animals and a knowledge and experience that go well beyond this brand new account. he will do everything in his power to make your pet feel like they’re in a home away from home when they are in his care.

Lorraine is a great pet sitter. She looked after my dog for a week and kept me informed daily as to how he was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and had an enjoyable stay. I felt assured that he was indeed in good hands. I highly recommend her.

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

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Ocean Gate

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Ocean Gate is $73 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $98 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.

There are 655 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ocean Gate. About 91% of Ocean Gate 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
