“Andrew was super communicative during our stay and went above and beyond for both our doggies! They are large and can definitely be a handful and he had no problem at all catering to their needs! Will definitely be using again!”

“Patricia took very good care of our doggie that boarded with her. We were lucky to find her on a short notice and lucky that we felt immediately reassured that he would be in good hands. An added bonus was her own sweet and happy dog who became a buddy to ours quickly. I recommend Patricia to anyone looking for a home away from home for their canine family members.”

“Marci and her family were the perfect match for watching our iggies. They have a beautiful big yard and know how to care for quirky breeds! Marci updated us with photos of the dogs and updates every morning and night. We would absolutely book with them in the future!”

“Our Bichon, Jeffrey loves his Aunt Patti! When we dropped him off, he made himself right at home without a look in our direction! He celebrated Thanksgiving with Pat and her family, again making himself at home sitting on the couch with her soon to be son-in-law watching the game! We didn't worry at all about Jeffrey. Pat kept us updated with pictures and adorable videos of his days there! We were able to enjoy a few days with my husband's family for Thanksgiving without a single worry. I know Jeffrey can't wait to see his new family again!”

“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”

“Sherlin was great and she was happy with my Buffy. She gave Buffy a great report card. Sherlin sent pictures & updates on Buffys stay which quieted my fears. Would definitely use Sherlin again and Sherlin would welcome Buffy back anytime.”

“Katie was wonderful sending us updates and was very flexible with drop off and pickup time. Would definitely recommend and rebook next time I’m back to Jersey”

“Victoria was fantastic! Our dog had a wonderful time, as evidenced by the thoughtful photos she provided throughout his stay! Thank you for the great care that you provided, Victoria!”


“We have had ongoing great experiences with Denise. We are completely at ease when our 11 year old King Charles (Presley) is in her care. A five star service for sure! Rudy & Beverly Meyers”
“Amazing experience. My dog, Lucy, was so loved and cared for. She had a blast. The only downside is she didn’t want to come home and wanted to stay with her new friends. LOL. Highly recommend!”

“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.”
“Nantikan were very prompt in communications and took excellent care of our two dogs while we were out of town for a long weekend. She sent us photos and kept us up to date. Much appreciated!”

“Rebecca communicated with us the entire time and made us feel like Bella was well taken care of, she made sure she ate when she didn’t want to eat and shared pictures with us.”

“This was the 1st time we had our dog stay with Lori and it was a great experience. She was easy to work with and our dog was well taken care of. We will certainly use Lori in the future to take care of our sweet puppy.”


“Our two dogs boarded with Ashlee for a week. They were well cared for and loved! Ashlee is a great communicator, friendly and great with our dogs. I would use her again and have recommended her to friends!”

“James took such good care of my weim boy! My boy isn’t always the easiest dog to handle, and he can be high maintenance, and James made it seem like he was a breeze! Quickly Responsive, followed any/all care instructions. So happy to have peace of mind knowing my dog is well taken care of when he is there.”

“Kim is the best!! She sent us so many updates & pictures, and took extra care of Winston during the thunderstorms! You can tell she truly cares about your pups and we will definitely be booking her again. Winston didn’t want to leave and I think he’s still sad he had to leave his vacation home 🤣 Our whole family is so excited that we found such a trustworthy sitter on the island! Thanks again, Kim!”

“Jan watched our dog Cash over Memorial Day weekend, Jan kept us up to date and sent pictures and videos of Cash. My husband and I both felt very comfortable leaving Cash with her. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands! She was so sweet and we could tell she really loved dogs. We will be booking again throughout the summer!”

“At the most opportune moment I had the good fortune to find Katherine and John to take care of Beeto, from his expression I can say that he received a lot of love and care. He certainly had a great time.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 254 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Republic. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Port Republic sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Port Republic landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Port Republic home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Port Republic.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Port Republic sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
