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.
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!
About: Greetings Pet Parents: I recently retired and am able to fulfill a lifelong dream of having a small doggy day care in my house 24/7 I have the time since I am fully retired now to dedicate to taking care of small pets for as long as you may need in my home. I have a fenced patio out back with a long strip of astro turf where your pet can enjoy sunshine, fresh air and potty breaks on demand in a safe secure enclosed space
“Our dog’s first “home away from home” was amazing thanks to Joanne. She took wonderful care of our 9 month old Goldendoodle. In the photos Joanne sent our pup looked so comfortable and happy in her home. He usually has separation anxiety when I take him to the groomer (they have to drag him into the back room). I was astounded at how easily he settled into her home. When I picked him up he was so calm, not jumping up on me and whining that I’d left him! Thank you, Joanne!”
“Mark gave my pup amazing care! He cared and loved my dog as if she was his own! He is truly the best with his updates and videos and I could not be more lucky to have him care for my sweet Kali! Its amazing people like Mark that leaves you as a animal lover care free when your away from your pet! I thank you from the bottom of my heart Mark for such great care for Kali!!!”
“We've had a great experience with Luz & Alessandro! They were very welcoming and took such great care of my dog. Their communication was awesome every step of the way. We always got updates and photos, which really gave us peace of mind. Most importantly, our dog was totally comfortable and happy with them. Highly recommend!”
“My 2 furbabies, Lacey and Bandit, loved staying with Scott and Amber for the week. Finding a replacement sitter on short notice was not easy, but once I met Scott, Amber, their 2 boys and 2 pups, I did not even hesitate in booking. I received plenty of pics to put my mind at ease and see my 2 pups were happy and settling in. They came home tired after all the playtime they had running after a toddler and 2 other pups. I would not think twice about booking with them again and would highly recommend them for anyone who needs a safe, friendly, active home to place their pups when they need a sitter.”
“Patty is the best! She took such good care of Dexter while we were gone for 9 days. Everyday we received many pictures of Dexter- walking, swimming, hanging with his friends and even doing some artwork! It was such a relief to me knowing that Dexter was in good hands. He had so much fun but most of all, he was loved and cared for with lots of tender loving care! Thank you, Patty, for going that extra step with Dexter.”
“Cindy, thank you so much for taking just the best care of our Lucy, who we understand is young, and still very my in the puppy phase! You kept her entertained, showered her with so much care, and are a Pro! Thanks again!”
“Anne was absolutely fantastic and was able to accommodate our last minute request without any issues. Our puppy had a great time and Anne took great care of her. I highly recommend Anne!”
“Arlene was a pleasure to leave my fur baby with for a few days. She stayed in constant contact with me and sent photos daily. Will definitely reach out again to her if we need a sitter again!”
“We love Paola! She takes care of our dog as if he was her own and that’s exactly what we are looking for in a sitter. We will definitely be using her again and every time if we can!”

There are 665 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.

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.
