Dog Boarding in Petersburg, NJ

“As always, my baby was safe and secure. I’m afraid to say she’s the best because she may never have openings! She really takes your dog and make them hers for the time they are there. My baby ‘Bear’ was a shelter dog so I was extremely worried. Not a problem! She took care of our old man (old Rottie) and after that, I have no hesitations leaving my dog with her. Thanks for caring for my baby like he was your baby!”

“Kathleen was great. She kept us updated each day of our trip how Charlie was doing and sent pics of him. Highly recommend her for watching your pet! It was so nice knowing he was being taken care of properly while we were away! Will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks Kathleen!”

“Mariah is the number one choice as caretaker for my pup! This was my first time using Rover, and I was astonished by how well that my pup did. Mariah is authentic, caring, and sincerely knows how to relate to animals in a way that makes them feel like the most valuable little being in the world. After searching boarding options for weeks, I almost gave up because I did not want to leave my puppy in a kennel or dog hotel. I am so grateful that someone referred me to Rover, and that Mariah was in the area! I hope that more caretakers can be like her, because every dog would feel better after staying with someone like Mariah! She communicated wonderfully, her other dogs got along great with my own, and her family unit was nurturing to my puppy. I will definitely book with Mariah again, and highly recommend her to anyone needing a caretaker for their animal!! :)”

“Dara is an absolute star!! She went above and beyond to make sure our furbaby Rambo was fully ready and suited for our wedding day ceremony. Dara and her doggos kept him company and very comfortable in her home throughout the weekend. We received regular photos and updates on Rambo's status and could see he was very happy in her care. He was exhausted after all the playtime fun. We will definitely contact Dara again for our future sitting needs. If you need pet care, call Dara and you will be very happy you did!”

“On meeting Jim and his wife we instantly knew our 12 year old dog would be well cared for. On return from our trip, our dog barely said hello to us, then ran back to Jim. We feel very fortunate to have found Jim and highly recommended him.”

“As always, Tim and Lisa are amazing with your furry child. Bailey always enjoys her stays and we highly recommend bring your furry child to them. Their family will treat them as their own.”

About: I've spent my whole life around animals and it shows. Whether I'm boarding your pup, caring for your cat, or out on a walk, I bring patience, attention, and genuine care to every situation. I've picked up a lot along the way (including some time as a vet tech assistant), but mostly I just love animals and treat every one like they're my own💛 My weekday routine includes a midday home visit during lunch, with full availability in the evenings and on weekends. I believe in being transparent with pet parents. Your dog will be comfortable, cared for, and never left without a break for too long. 🐶Dogs who board with me are in a real home with a fenced backyard, not a kennel. They get space, routine, and plenty of love. I keep things structured so they feel secure, and I'm always attentive to how a new dog is settling in. 🐱For cats, I believe the best care happens on their turf.I come to you, keep their routine intact, clean their litter, handle feeding, and make sure they get some company before heading meowt.

“Lori was amazing with our Bernedoodle, Ruby! So many wonderful photo updates and made our first trip away from home leaving our pup easy. Would 100% book again.”

“Angela was amazing , and took really good care of my xtra large dog . I’m grateful to have found her last minute and she really helped me out where others wouldn’t. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family . I would definitely use her again if she was willing. Angela is definitely an asset to the rover community!!!”

“Rebecca was an awesome sitter! She would constantly send updates and pictures everyday and I feel at peace knowing that my dog is in good hands. She went above and beyond my expectations and even gave him a bath and washed his bed before I picked him up. She is a wonderful person and I can truly tell she has a passion and love for dogs. I would 100% book with her again.”

“I can’t possibly say enough good things about Marci and her family and how they took such good care of our two wonderful dogs for 10 days. This was the longest we have ever left the dogs and Marci made us feel so reassured while we were away with unbelievable updates pictures and videos. They showed incredible love to our dogs and we are forever grateful I cannot recommend Marci enough! Thank you Marci and family! ❤️”

“Kristen and family were amazing. This was the first time Bear stayed with a sitter and he was comfortable and loved the entire time. I actually think he didn’t want to come home! Will definitely be using Kristen for any future sitting ❤️”

Ashley R.

“Lisa took such good care of my dog! I didn't know what to expect - I have never boarded her except at friends' houses. She texted me photos and updates throughout the weekend, and asked questions about her habits. She had a movie night with her! And the best part was a surprise gift when I picked her up! (I won't spoil it!) Thank you, Lisa!”

Robin M.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for Penny’s stay! From start to finish, she was communicative and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, so we always knew Penny was in good hands. Penny came back happy, relaxed, and clearly entertained—she even seemed to have had her own little vacation! We’re so grateful for the care and attention Penny received and highly recommend Janet’s services to any pet parent. We will definitely be booking again!”

“How can I find the right words to describe a literal angel on earth?? As someone with no family or anyone trusted nearby to watch my newly rescued Chihuahua with separation anxiety (along with some anxiety myself 😅), Pat not only took the time to understand my baby’s needs, but also to make ME feel comfortable. After my dog’s 3-day stay with Pat, I consider her to be a part of our little family. The first day was a rocky with my dog’s anxiety and sadness over me leaving her for the first time, but Pat was incredibly kind and patient, and gave her exactly what she needed to be comfortable. The next day, my girl was loving on Pat like she’s known her her entire life— and vice versa! Pat took her on walks, spoiled her with turkey and pup cups (I told her beforehand this was okay!), and kept me updated every chance she could with pictures and the CUTEST videos. I felt like my baby was completely safe and in the BEST hands… for someone like me, safety hasn’t always come easily; so this meant the world to me. Would I recommend Pat to anyone who is obsessed with their dog? A million times YES. However, I selfishly don’t want to because my dog and I want her all to ourselves! LOL. Seriously though, your dog will be safe, love, and spoiled beyond belief with Pat. Thank you for being an absolute GODSEND to us. 🤎🐾”
