“Fantastic experience ! My dog had such a great time with Kali. She really cares about making sure your dog is happy. My dog was sooo happy. I would highly recommend Kali.”
About: As a life long dog owner, I know how important it is to have someone else in your circle to care for your pets. I have raised my own lab from a puppy and trained her to be the best house dog she can be! I love to be active and on the go! Senior dogs who want to soak up every moment this life has to offer is also in my wheel house. I'm currently working part time as a substitute teacher and I am done for the day around 2:30 pm. I will have evenings free for walks and boarding. I don't have children of my own, so offering services for pets is a way I can contribute to this new community I have found myself in. I have a fenced in yard and access to an open walking path within walking distance of my home. As a PE teacher, I am very active and love to stay moving after school. I have always believed a tired dog, is a happy dog :) I also have experience in nannying and professional organizing, so staying in a client's home is also something I am privy to.
“Rebecca was amazing. She watched our 6 month old Shorkie for the weekend and he was a happy pup. She responded immediately if I checked in on him, she sent lots of pics of him having fun with his new friends, and he came home happy. He even got to watch Harry Potter on the couch with her family while getting petted! I would absolutely use her again!”
“Kat took amazing care of our Axel for the holiday weekend! She was super sweet, kind, accommodate us last minute, and actually cared to know his routine and what works for him. She kept me updated all throughout his stay! I felt safe knowing Axel was with her. 10/10, we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“This was our first time leaving our fur baby with someone we didn’t know. Super nervous. Rachel was amazing . She kept us up to date daily. She even gave our dog a bath. We felt at ease and got to enjoy our vacation to the fullest. Rachel has an amazing heart for animals. Your dog will be in great care with her. Will definitely book again in the future.”
About: I’ve had many dogs growing up. 3 Shih Tzus, 1 German Shepherd, and an Australian Shepherd. I used to walk and take care of a Golden Poodle for a year nearby Long Branch. I love dogs and I’m always from my own so I’d love to take care and be around them. I’ve taken care of puppies and also my own dog who was 16 years old before she passed recently. I play soccer at Monmouth, our practices are from 10-12. Other than that, I’m mostly free. Being a senior I don’t have much class and I’m a very active person so I’d love to walk/run with dogs. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, medications, or routines. I’m very responsible and will give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates while I’m with them.
“Moose loved staying at Carly's. She asked prior about having another dog there at the same time. Moose was thrilled to have a buddy to hang out with! He came back happy and tired. Highly recommend Carly”
“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!”
“This was the first time I’ve used a sitter from an online site. Believe me we were very, very satisfied with Michelle. She is the greatest! She treated our cat Phoebe like one of her own, and Phoebe loved her back. I highly recommend her to everyone and we will definitely use her again. Thank you so much Michelle for your kindness and your care for Phoebe.”
“Rosemery was excellent with my King Charles cavalier!. It was my first time using the app and leaving my three year old dog with someone who wasn’t family. She was amazing with keeping in touch and sending pictures. My dog looked so happy and comfortable to be cared for by her. I would highly recommend her and will def use her again in the future!!”
About: I’ve been around pets since I was little, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve helped with everything from walking and bathing to feeding, playing, and cleaning up after them. I’m active, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’m also very patient and understand that every pet has their own routine, comfort level, and needs. I currently do not have e a dog and only accept one dog at a time, so you’ll dog will have my sole attention. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a priority throughout my day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and extended care during both weekdays and weekends. I enjoy staying active, so getting outside for walks and spending time with pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a big fenced backyard, with plenty of room for your dog to run around and play and do whatever they like. I have plenty of room in my house and your pet will be safe, fed, and happy. MUST BE HOUSE TRAINED
“Jennifer did a great job caring for our 8 year-old dog Marty. I received many pictures and it looked like they had some great adventures together. I would highly recommend Jennifer to other dog families!”
“Bob was a great dog sitter for our dog. He was excited when we dropped her off and clearly adores dogs. He sent pictures every day of her with cute doggie quotes. Our dog clearly enjoyed her stay and was comfortable and happy while we were away. I would def recommend bob and we will surely have him dog sit again. 5 stars for sure.”
“This is the second time Megan and Bryan have taken in our two pups. They are just really, really nice people and very pleasant to be around. Our pups love going there to play with Boomer and Obie and were exhausted when they got home. Thanks again Megan and Bryan!”
“Luz, and her family, are exceptional. I will be requesting her every time we need a sitter for my dog. She was attentive and affectionate. My dog Maggie is rarely without us because the few times we have left her with others she gets very depressed. For the first time ever Maggie was actually missing her sitter. She laid by the door when we got home waiting for , what we now call, her other family. She was made to feel at home. I highly recommend Luz to anyone who has a furry family member that they want to ensure is safe, secure, and happy.”
“Bridgette was a great host for my pup-son! When i dropped him off, the first thing she said was, “I’ve been excited all day waiting for him!” How comforting that was to hear?! She sent ample pictures and even videos! She took him to the dog park, on long walks, and challenged him with puzzles. My little fella usually takes a while before he feels comfortable eating with a new sitter but he had no issues with her! She even fed him his motion sickness medication before I picked him up. I would recommend Bridgette to any and all of my friends/family. Your pup will be in good hands. Added bonus that she was able to squeeze him in on short notice!”
“Katie and Janet did an amazing job taking care of Emmie! they were very loving and caring towards her and treated her like family. they gave me lots of updates about her and I felt very confident that my dog was in great hands with them. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter and if i need one in the future i'm definitely reaching out to them.”
“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”

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.

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, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 , 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 .
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.
