“Our dog was well cared and attended well feed and grooms property,,,,under the care of Ashlee C.,,,,, if ever I will be out of town again,,, o won’t hesitate to to send my dog to her under her watch,,,,”
“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!”
“Michael has been amazing, this is the first time we have left Tucker anywhere and we were nervous. Michael has sent us videos to put us at ease I highly recommend him!”
“Colleen made the whole process so easy from booking through pick up. This was our first time leaving Kobe with anyone outside of family, and Colleen was very understanding and reassuring. She updated us regularly with texts, pictures, and videos. Kobe was happy to see us when we picked him up, but also seemed quite content to be in Colleen’s home. It was a great experience for our first time using Rover.”
“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!”
“Beth Ann was a lifesaver. She was able to watch our new dog last minute. She was professional, kind, and attentive. She gave us regular updates. She bonded with Enzo right away and made him feel comfortable and at home. She was also great at administering his medication. We highly recommend her and will certainly book again in the future!”
“Pam and Jay did such an awesome job with our 17 yr. old dog. They were loving and patience with her. I will use them again if needed and would highly recommend them.”
“Karrie sent me so many pictures, I loved it. She was open and honest to any incidents that happened good or bad, Gray tends to get herself into a few messes and I was notified of them which made me feel at ease and able to trust Karrie. Gray was living the life at her stay. Thank you again!!”
“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!”
“Angela responded to my questions promptly, and made me feel at ease leaving my dog for the first time with a Rover caregiver. She texted with updates and photos. Boomer was in great hands, and I’ll definitely use her again!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kirk and Joy! Leaving your dogs behind is never easy, especially with new sitters, but they immediately put our minds at ease. They were incredibly communicative throughout our trip, sending regular updates, photos, and messages that reassured us our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They were patient, attentive, and genuinely treated them like one of their own. We also ran into an unexpected issue with forgetting one of our dog’s medication before our trip, and they were so understanding and helpful. Their kindness and willingness to help during a stressful situation meant more to us than we can say. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter. Thank you again for taking such amazing care of our boys!”

Our pets are up to date with vaccines and I keep clean water bowls daily. Feel free to reach out to me with your questions, I'll be happy to help. I am a stay home dad and I take pride in running my house accordingly. I'm an active runner and walk ours dogs often so they don't get anxious and i play fetch with them daily x3 at least. I have a schedule for feeding times to maintain appropriate weight goals for our pets. I have a fence backyard with space to play fetch so we don't have to find random parks on days that are too hot or too cold. However walks are a must for the dogs social development. Walk time vary depending on age, size and capability of the dog. I keep the AC or heat on according to the season.

Kathleen watched my dog over the weekend while I was away at an event. I was nervous, but she kept me updated with photos & msg the entire time. Her msgs help me realize that my dog was in good hands. I will definitely book again with Kathleen. She was sooo good to my dog
Denise was amazing with our senior dog. She communicated promptly to any of our pre-visit questions and followed our pup's schedule as suggested. She is kind and caring and we loved the photo updates while we were away since this was the first time we ever left her with someone other than a family member. JLo loved her stay with Denise!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Somers Point can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Somers Point 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 Somers Point.
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 can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

You and your Somers Point 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
