“Rose was wonderful. She took care of Teddy so well. Her backyard is a fantastic playground for dogs. She kept in touch frequently, sent pictures and everything. When I arrived to pick Tedddy up he raced for her backdoor and not my car. I think that says it all”

“Ricky’s second time with Alba and she is amazing. Always feel so relaxed while he is there knowing he is in good hands. So many cute photos sent of him while we were away. She is VERY accommodating as well. ♥️”

“Vanessa took great care of my dog and he had so much fun with her. He enjoyed his walks with her and cuddling. She updated me frequently during his stay and sent plenty of pictures. She even gave him a little goodie bag of treats to go home with. I will definitely go to Vanessa again when I need a pet sitter. She went above and beyond.”

“What a wonderful, caring person Karen is! We so appreciate her loving care of our elderly pug. Updates and pictures were provided often, and I know that he felt right at home with her and her two sweet doggos.”

“Deb is a fabulous sitter for my two senior dogs! She paid attention to their cues and ways. She let us know how they did each day. She gave us a full report when we returned, too. They were happy to see us when we picked them up. Thank you for taking such good care of our family members, Deb!”


“Paola did a phenomenal job caring for our Kody. He has minor issues with separation anxiety and Paola made sure he had his medication each day at the appropriate time. She incorporated him right into her household and he fit right in and relaxed immediately. Her and her husband loved him as their own. The pictures and videos she sent made it apparent that Kody was relaxed and having a great time. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience with Paola and her husband Sebastián. Thanks for loving on him!”

“Vicki and Heath had our dog for 3 nights, and she had a great time! We were nervous because we haven’t left her with anyone else before this. Our nerves were quickly settled by lots of photos and videos. She got lots of exercise with their dogs and another dog that was staying with them that weekend. She made herself right at home by sleeping on their couch and watching their horses from the window. Vicki even made her eggs to add to her food! I’m so grateful we found Vicki & Heath!”

“Arlene was a pleasure to leave my fur baby with for a few days. She stayed in constant contact with me and sent photos daily. Will definitely reach out again to her if we need a sitter again!”

“Hedra did a wonderful job watching our dog, Cocoa, while we were away. He was reliable, communicated consistently, and clearly took great care of her. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend him and would use him again without hesitation.”


“Meghan was perfect for watching our cat for an extended stay! She gave us updates with pictures and videos. We felt she was safe and happy with Meghan. We will absolutely reach out again when we need a babysitter!”

“Sweet, caring, and trustworthy people. They took amazing care of my cat while I was away. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and will be booking with them again in the future.”

“Tina was unbelievable! You can tell how much she loves dogs and cared for our dog so well! Our dog went on so many great walks and outings! Highly recommend! Couldn’t be happier with Tina’s care and updates everyday!”


“We left our dog Wicket for a week, and we’re so glad we found Anne. Leaving her was not easy, but knowing that she was going to be well taken care of was so comforting. We got daily pics and updates from Anne and could tell when we picked her up that she had a great time there. Still the same happy puppy she was when she left her. It was so easy to book and th convenience of having Anne so close to home was great. She’s super friendly and loved our dog like she was her own.”

“Kristen is an amazing dog sitter! I got a lot of pictures and updates which put me at ease on how much fun my dog was having! It’s great to know that your dog is in wonderful hands!”

“Elina has been great so far with all of our visits. She has been very accommodating with timing and even helped out for an extra night when I was unable to come pick up my pets. Elina cares well for the animals and is very reliable and quick to respond!”

We love Debbie! She is so caring and loving toward our Labrador. She takes her on walks daily, gives her treats and plenty of snuggles and attention. She gives us updates and communicates often with texts and pictures. We could not have found a better sitter for our dog:)

Our dog Ellie received excellent care from Celeste! She truly went above and beyond to make sure Ellie was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It was clear from the moment we picked her up that she had been in great hands. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and peace of mind Celeste provided. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!

Nicole and her family were amazing with my Husky. I was worried since it was the first time leaving him with someone he didn’t already know. Her yard is a doggie oasis, they were so loving and attentive and made me feel at ease leaving him while we were on vacation. I will definitely be using her again, 5 star doggie treatment!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Christine and her family were so wonderful with our Axel while we were away for 1 week! Like home away from home. I found her last minute and the moment I met her I knew Axel would be happy there. She took such great care of him and kept me updated the whole time! Thank you!! Axel will be back!

Avigail( Abby) was absolutely awesome ! She always kept me informed about Roscoe and sent pictures everyday , walking him and hanging out with her and her golden retriever ! They were buddies ! She made us feel so content on our vacation! We knew he was in the best of hands !! Will definitely use her again if we go back to the shores for vacation! Thank you Abby so much ! Roscoe is a very happy camper on our ride home thanks to you :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Toms River on Rover is $34.75 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 863 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Toms River. About 90% of Toms River sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
