Top rated Rumson pet boarders

“Yvette is hands down the most loving dog boarder by a mile. Elvis is always happy there - be at long stay or short one. We are always satisfied. She always sends us loads of updates and photos and videos and he comes home healthy and well looked after. Perfectly happy he’s very attached to her and you’re very thankful to Robert that we found her. She is a lifesaver. Cannot imagine how we would’ve done without her.”


“Great communication replied quickly and made me feel comfortable with leaving my dog with her and her family took many photos and videos 10/10 totally will have her watch vanitas again in the future”


“Karen took exceptionally good care of my little girl Mali. She kept sending us pictures and updates about how Mali was doing. Highly recommended! We know where to drop our little dog from now on!”


“We have rebooked a few times and will continue to! Erica is great with our very energetic golden! She has tons of room to run and play. She sends tons of photos making us feel better about being away from her! Maggie loves going to her home because she knows is going to have a ton of fun.”

“What a wonderful woman to leave your pets with. I have tow big dogs and she has her own big dog. She was attentive, active, and so communicative on their daily stools, play, and cuddle sessions. Would highly recommend Bridget, she was very thoughtful and trustworthy with my two fur babies !”


“As a first-time Rover user, I was nervous about leaving our rescue dog with someone new. She's very shy and easily scared around people outside our immediate family, so I wasn’t sure how she would adjust to a sitter’s home—especially with kids. We tried a few short drop-in visits at other homes, but she just wasn’t comfortable. With an international trip coming up, we had to keep trying—and that’s when we met Stephanie and her wonderful family. Right away, my dog warmed up to Stephanie and her two kids. I could tell she felt safe and more at ease than she ever had with others. It was a huge relief, and we decided to move forward. Stephanie updated us every day with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. After just two days, our dog was sleeping on the nanny's bed! By the end of the 7-day stay, she looked so happy and relaxed. When we came to pick her up, she actually barked at us at first—she didn’t recognize us right away! That’s how well cared for and loved she felt during her time with Stephanie. I can't recommend Stephanie enough. She treated our dog like family and helped turn a stressful situation into a beautiful one. We’ll absolutely be back!”


“Tabitha was great! So accommodating and flexible. I boarded my pup with her, & when my flight got canceled on my home she happily held onto her for an extra day. Received multiple pics and updates while I was away¨̮”


“Julie was amazing with my precious little baby for 5 days. I received multiple pictures and videos of my pup every day. I would absolutely use Julie again and will recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


“Michael and Danielle were wonderful with Wally. Drop off and pick up was really easy. Their home is beautiful and they have a fenced in yard where Wally could run around with their dog Jet. We received daily updates with lots of photos of Wally enjoying herself. We would definitely trust them with Wally again! Thank you!”


“Skye took in my pup for an overnight boarding and I could not be happier with how dedicated he was to our puppy the entire time! He sent us photos and videos of their adventures and playtime, he made sure my puppy was well fed, watered, and gave him so much playtime he was exhausted when we picked him up! We can tell our puppy has the time of his life and can’t wait to request Skye again our next time in town!!!!”


“I can not say enough about how great Lori was with my little girl, Remi! This was the first time Remi has been out of her surroundings for multiple nights and Lori made sure she was her #1 priority. To be able to go away with piece of mind is exactly what Lori provided to me. Each picture I got, put a smile on my face and I could tell Remi was happy and comfortable. Thank you again Lori !”


“I have review Rachel a few times now and every time, she is amazing. She watched our almost 1 year old golden doodle for 6 days and nights. Babka is so happy when she is there. And so happy when she comes home. No issues whatsoever and Rachel sent pictures and videos too. Also her dog loves Babka and that makes us so happy for them both to have a friend to play with for the week. We will continue to use Rachel whenever we can.”


“Daniel and Markeya went above and beyond while taking care of my dogs for five days. That was my first time separating from my dogs, and they made me feel very comfortable and sure that my dogs were going to be in great hands. They kept my updated with pictures and details about their daily routine. I truly recommend Daniel and Markeya. They are very sweet, and found the way to accommodate my dogs the best way possible and made them feel at home.”


“Toni was absolutely fantastic with our little Yorkie, Nano. She sent lots of updates to assure us he was having a great time. He came back so tired from all the activities, play time, and beach walks they went on together. I'll definitely be booking Toni again in the future!”


“Jamie took very good care of my senior dog Teddy in her lovely home. Teddy being older cries and whines looking for his meals or just being unhappy away from his familiar home. Jamie made extra effort to keep him comfortable and kept in touch with me through texts and photos. Than you!!”
