“Kali was a great choice, she took great care of our dog( who can be challenging at times) She was a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.”
“My pup Django loved his time with Carol Ann! She is the sweetest and spent lots of time with him - he even got sick to his stomach halfway through the trip and she made sure to nurse him back to health. Had no worries at all while away on our one week vacay!”
About: I’ve basically taken care of dogs my entire life. I always ensure there’s fresh food and water available, plenty of play time, administer medication, and take them out on long walks! I’m working part time and I get to choose the hours so whatever time you need me to be there, I’ll be there. I don’t do much other than that besides volleyball and workout weekly. For the younger pups, I love their energy so I make sure to play with them if there are any toys. If not, I still can hype them and get them running around. For the older pups, who are not as active, I tend to chill with them and give plenty of pets like I did with my last older dog. If you have a fenced in area, I can take them outside, but I would much rather prefer to take long walks around the neighborhood letting them smell wherever they want and go to the bathroom. I also used to love teaching my dog new tricks if you would like that! Overall, I would just love any time I get to spend with dogs because their energy is just amazing!
“Michelle was wonderful with Koda and a great relief for me leaving my dog while I was out of the country for a week. I would recommend her to any dog parent. She sent daily pictures and my dog was healthy and happy. She will be my first choice the next time I cannot take my dog with me.”
“ollie had another lovely stay with nicole and her roommate marina! so thankful they took such great care of him—he was clearly well cared for and had a great time at nicole’s all week. plus nicole was so accommodating and flexible when my flight got delayed and pushed out pickup time back!”
“Roxanne (& Leo) took great care of our puppies. They sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us up to date. And, a bonus that they live right by the beach and our dogs absolutely love the beach.”
“Kathleen was awesome! I could tell the dogs had fun because I didn't hear a peep out of them all the way home. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely give her a call!”
“Sydney was very sweet and very professional. I could tell she took her dogsitting very seriously and could also tell my dog enjoyed being around her. I highly recommend Sydney.”
“Amazing. We could not have found anyone better to take care of our dog while away. Megan and her husband were fantastic to work with, so easy with our schedule and gave our dog even more attention than we ever could! They sent me pictures everyday which was so comforting and when it came time to pick up my dog she wasnt even overly excited to see me- I think she would have preferred to stay with them longer :)”
About: I am a work from home dog mom and love my German Shorthaired Pointer, Remi. We go to the beach, park and go on neighborhood walks every day. I have the availability and capacity to have another dog to tag along. I have fostered dogs in the past and love helping a dog have a safe and comfortable place to stay! I work from home and take my dog for a walk every few hours or bring her to the beach or the park on my lunch break. Dogs have plenty of toys and comfortable places to relax and play while I work. Remi would love to keep your pup company! I have the room to have your dog set up however they need. If your pup is crate trained, I have a spare one to set up for them with all the comfy things needed to put in it. I have lots of treats and toys for pups to play with and a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood to walk them in.
“Patricia is fantastic. The girls loved her and she sent us pictures while they were with her. The pictures made our day. Thanks so much Patricia for allowing us to have a guilt free vacation.”
“Last night was my first night away from my 4 month old puppy. Even though my pup did great on our meet and great I was very anxious about leaving her. Bob knew my husband and I were celebrating our 25 year wedding anniversary and made sure we relaxed and enjoyed ourselves but sending periodic updates with pics. When we picked up our puppy today she just woke up from a nap on Bob's lap. She was happy to see us but in no rush to leave. Bob will now be watching her for 10 nights in the summer and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident that I found the perfect sitter for my little girl. Thank you again Bob!!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Looking for some pets to take care of in the Monmouth County area. I am a college student at Monmouth University but I am looking to help out any fur babies in my free time. I finished up my 4th season of soccer with Monmouth University and now with my added free time I would like to help out anyone in need. I live in a welcoming home with a lot of girls who love all types of animals. I am willing to make any accommodations to make your pets feel safe!
“Echo has never had a better time! He came home exhausted. Angelina took great care of him and sent pictures regularly. We will definitely bring Echo to hang out with Angelina and her dog, Jasmine, in the future.”
“Thomas was a wonderful sitter and treated Zoey like she was her owner. We felt very comfortable leaving her there over the weekend. So sad he can’t watch her for our next trip.”
“I can't recommend Victoria highly enough! From the very beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, and I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine was maintained and that all of their needs were met. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Victoria. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hi! I am a holistic minded health care worker (integrative pharmacist & functional health coach) and I love dogs. My senior dog recently passed from cancer so I have experience in caring for senior dogs with special needs (frequent feedings, giving medicine, frequent symptom monitoring, glucose fluctuations, liver supportive care, etc). I have a Shih Tzu puppy (1yo) and it’s been the greatest joy watching her grow, I’m teaching her lots of tricks, she knows 15 already! I’m happy to try and teach your dog tricks too :) she is very friendly and submissive if you are looking for a companion to or to socialize your dog. I work part time and remotely from home, so my schedule is flexible for playtime and walkies! I have a Shih Tzu puppy that can come along & we love long walks on the beach or around town :) I have a Shih Tzu puppy who is treated like the royalty that she is 😂. I love all animals and treat them with love, care, and respect. My girl is playful and submissive and gets along beautifully with all animals, in case your pet is looking for a companion or socialization!

Lucky enjoyed his weekend with Cheryl, Gus, family & friends:) And we are grateful to have connected with Cheryl to know Lucky was in loving, experienced hands and had a great backyard & home to feel at home in. We also appreciated the thoughtful communication and fun pictures of Lucky & friends when we were away. Thank you!
Carol Ann and John happily accepted Juno in a pinch when I had a circumstance that required last-minute hosting. During my time away, they sent me photos and notes to let me know that she was having fun and that all was going well at their home. Their care for Juno and understanding of her energetic needs made me so comfortable. I am glad they had her for this weekend away!!! Thank you.

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.
94% of sitters in Spring Lake Heights 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 Spring Lake Heights 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 Spring Lake Heights.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spring Lake Heights. On Rover:

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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Spring Lake Heights 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.
