About: Ive cared for my own pets and many friends pets mainly dogs throughout my life. From puppies to senior dogs. Never met one I didnt love. I run my own small planning firm so my schedule is very flexible. I am available during the week day or night for walks and pet care. I am happy to come to your home and play with your fur baby and also attend to any of his or her needs, feeding walking petting medication.
“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!”
“We are very comfortable leaving our little guy with Crystal because we know that he will receive a lot of love and attention and he will be very happy staying with them. This was our 2nd time using Crystal and we will definitely use her again.”
“Joanna was a top notch sitter. She was beyond accommodating and helpful. She sent tons of pictures and videos. Our pet was so happy and we will for sure be using Joanna as a sitter again.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Max had a wonderful time with Mark and will be looking forward to the next time he stays with him. Mark kept me posted on their time together with regular photos and videos, and I had absolute trust in the care he was giving my boy. I would not hesitate in calling on Mark in the future.”
“Luz & Alessandro took wonderful care of my senior boy, Gunner. We got consistent updates and photos, which was very much appreciated. Any time I needed to contact them, they were always available. This is a very sweet couple who clearly care about the animals they bring into their home.”
About: There’s nothing quite like the love of a dog. That’s why I’m here to provide a safe, reliable, and relaxing home away from home for your pup! I've been around dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for my own. I grew up with two Havanese, a Bulldog, and two Shichons! I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and showering every dog with plenty of love and attention. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've pet sat for friends and family, making sure their pups stayed comfortable, active, and well cared for while they were away. I know every dog has their own personality and routine. I'm happy to follow your preferences to help them feel as comfortable as possible. As a grad student, I spend much of my time studying, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to provide attentive care, regular walks, and playtime. My goal is simple - to make every dog feel safe and loved, so you can have complete peace of mind. I’m available for boarding from Friday after 2pm through Sunday. Weekends give me more flexibility for walks, playtime, outdoor adventures, and quality time with your pup. Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I want every dog to feel like they’re in a safe, calm, and loving environment while they’re in my care. I live in a house in a calm, beach neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks and fresh air. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, I love staying active and providing pups with plenty of outdoor time and exercise throughout their stay. Before each stay, I will make sure to learn your dog’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, and any special instructions so I can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. I understand every dog is different. I’m happy to follow your preferences to help your pup feel safe and at home!
“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”
“We had a wonderful experience with Scott and his family. He was incredibly flexible with drop off/pick up times, sent great photos, and made us feel like our pup was truly cared for. We will be back if we are in the area again!!”
“Fantastic experience ! My dog had such a great time with Kali. She really cares about making sure your dog is happy. My dog was sooo happy. I would highly recommend Kali.”
About: I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable and happy with personalized routines, play time and plenty of love while you’re away. 15+ years of experience of pet sitting/pet owner. I have assisted in whelping puppies and care for my own dog with multiple health issues. I work a typical 8:30-4:30 job in the Ocean and Monmouth county area. But I am flexible with work from home, or traveling for drop in visits. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for running, frolicking and playing. I understand the importance of maintaining their routines and schedules all while providing endless love! I am comfortable with administering medication if necessary.
“This was our first time boarding our 1 year old puppy and Kristen was so great with her! Luna typically has very bad anxiety and she got acclimated quickly. Kristen was able to administer her daily anxiety medication and help with potty training. I felt so relieved knowing she was in such great hands while we were out of state!”
About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!
“This was the first time Jedi was brought to another home. He was very hyper and active when we first got there. But Jonathan did very well with him. He sent me pictures during the day and I believe that Jedi had a great time. When we brought him home I expected him to run through our house as if to say yay I’m home. But he didn’t…walked in and said I’m home, I had a great day! good night. I would definitely use Jonathan again in the future.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Ocean Gate is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean Gate
This was our first time in over 5 years leaving our dog anywhere + for such an extended amount of time. Danielle did a fantastic job of keeping us updated and sending photos of our girl. We felt overall very comfortable leaving her in the hands of Danielle and her family. Also, loved that her home had many gates to allow separation time for each of her guests. Luna seemed to have a great experience too and would highly recommend to anyone searching for a sitter in the area! Thank you!
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

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 647 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ocean Gate. About 90% 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 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.
