“Bella had a great time at Jamie's, running in her nice grassy backyard. I really appreciate that Jamie was able to watch Bella while we went to the beach, and was very flexible about the drop off and pickup. And cute photos and videos are great!”
“Skye was awesome from start to finish caring for our girl with short notice! My dog has a tough time with separation anxiety and Skye was great with helping her feel comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Katie is wonderful! She’s so sweet and updates me with photos and pictures throughout the day! She’s always keeping great communication about drop off and pick up and times to feed.”
“Linda was amazing with Peanut. She made her feel so at ease and happy that she ate her food, plus her puppy's food. This is unusual for my nervous little girl. She took great care of them while they played and enjoyed their time together.”
“This is my first time leaving Stella for the day when I adopted her about 2 months ago. Rachel is the best as she keep me informed about how Stella was doing throughout the day and kept her very active. It really took the stress/anxiety away while I had to take care of my activities for that day. I know Rachel did a great job looking after Stella as Stella slept soundly that night :-) Cheers”
“Makayla & Eric are amazing. They took such good care of my dog, we were able to do a meet up before hand where they asked very thoughtful questions. My little yorkie loves going to them.”
About: For as long as I can remember I’ve been passionate about working with animal life and pets, especially dogs. I’ve trained multiple dogs prior to. I am looking for a part time position that will help me to turn my love and hobby for care taking for dogs into a fun, fulfilling job and task. I have a fenced and large backyard, where your fur baby will be safe! I also have a friendly rottie, that loves guests! And I am happy to offer my help and expertise as needed/ asked for. But I am also willing to go meet the dog at his home. If that’s the best safe and neutral environment.
“Sara takes really good care of Winnie. I know this from the way Winnie runs up the driveway to meet her every morning. He is usually nervous around other dogs but Sara dealt with that like a pro. Now he has dog friends at Sara’s that he enjoys being with.”
About: Hi! NYC local here with a HUGE passion for animals. My family and I have been lucky enough to care for two Yorkies, two Pugs, a German Shepherd, a cat, a chinchilla, a guinea pig, a cockatoo, two parakeets, a turtle, a ball python, and finally, saltwater and freshwater aquariums with beautiful fishies and crayfish combined. With years of pet-loving experience, I love meeting, interacting, and playing with animals of all shapes and sizes. Having lived with so many different animals, I truly believe that each pet is its own individual with specialized needs. In nurturing my since passed nearly 18-year-old blind and deaf Lolita independently from just six years old, my huge soft spot for dogs was inevitable. From being around so many different breeds through my uncle's veterinarian business, I am also familiar with specific breed habits and the right approach to each one. I can assure you that I will always be patient and aware of their behavioral communication cues. I understand how difficult it is for you and your pup to be away from each other, so I always strive to meet your pet's every need. Working from home full-time, I have lots of flexibility for long walks and outdoor play which I thoroughly enjoy anyway. Your pet will feel right at home and you will get loads of pupdates with insta-worthy candids while you're away! I ensure your pet is treated just at home and very comfortable with any last-minute plans. Before confirming any jobs, I am also happy to meet with you and your pet if needed; just reach out c:
“Erica is fantastic with Boston. She’s incredibly attentive and warm, and it puts me totally at ease seeing how calm and happy he is around her. I love the way she just takes care of the dogs. Thank you!”
“Lorrie was fantastic with my dog Stevie! I could tell from our meet and greet that she is very knowledgeable about dogs. My dog is very scared of people he doesn’t know and hates when people approach him. Lorrie took her time, letting Stevie get comfortable and reading his body language when he needed space. Then, at his first daycare, Lorrie was extremely communicative with me, sending lots of pictures and videos about how Stevie was acclimating. So excited to use her daycare services again!”
“Fiona is amazing. She was super kind to us and took great care of Odin during our day at the beach. Great communication and very flexible. Odin will definitely come back! Thank you for everything, Fiona!”
“My dog has been having such a great time and comes home nice and tired after a day of play. Julissa is so sweet and sends so many updates and pictures throughout the stay. We will likely be regulars for doggy daycare!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oceanport
Kristy was absolutely amazing! She is wonderful with animals, extremely knowledgeable, and clearly has a natural way with them. I felt completely comfortable leaving my baby in her care and never had to worry about whether she was being well taken care of. Kristy kept me updated and sent lots of pictures, which gave me even more peace of mind. It was obvious from the photos that my little Frenchie was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. I would highly recommend Kristy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and knowledgeable pet sitter. Honestly, I think my Frenchie loved her so much that she would happily go back to Kristy and leave us behind! 😂 Thank you, Kristy, for taking such wonderful care of my baby!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Oceanport commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
