“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”
“Meena and her family were so warm and eager to care for our yellow lab while we were out of town for the weekend. They sent us pictures throughout our time away of Matty enjoying her time playing with their dogs and snuggling with their family. They gave our dog lots of walks and play time. We absolutely recommend this dog sitter and would absolutely use them again in the future.”
“Anish was absolutely amazing with our dog Max. Having being a long term dog owner, he knew all about how to handle our dog Max . I felt at ease from the time Max was dropped off till the time we picked Max up. Anish took the extra effort to make sure Max was taken for walks even in the pouring rain, and give him plenty of exercise and company. Max returned home happy, rested & well exercised. I highly recommend Anish to take care of your pet, its their home away from home.”
“After meeting Catherine for a meet and greet, my husband and I were very comfortable leaving our Coco Chanel for an overnight stay. The time Coco spent with Catherine went very well. Cathrine also sent me a picture and an update on Coco and I saw how comfortable she was with Catherine. I will definitely use Catherine again because I know she was in good hands.”
“We left our Husky, Leo, with Chastidy for nearly 10 days and had an excellent experience from start to finish. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. Leo was well cared for, and we felt confident he was in good hands throughout. I would highly recommend Chastidy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional pet sitter.”
“I was nervous at 1st to leave Kensi with anyone because we have never left her over night with anyone. But Christine took extremely great care of our pup. Would recommend her also to someone who needs a pet sitter..”
“Jaimie was WONDERFUL!! She gave regular updates and sent amazing pictures daily of Noodle. I was able to really enjoy my vacation knowing Noodle was being so well cared for! I highly recommend!!!”
“Stephanie is everything you would want in someone looking after your dog. I frequently take my senior dog over there for doggy day care or just a few hours when I need it. He just spent 10 days with Stephanie. Whenever he’s there I relax, knowing that he’s in a compassionate place with other friendly dogs to play with, and that he’s been exceptionally well taken care of, and all his needs —including special diet and meds — are being attended to.”
“Sara was wonderful with my Ash. I was initially worried about Ash health but her experience with administering medication, put me at ease with her care, communication. Ash was happy and well cared for, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. I would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“We had such a great experience leaving Bruno in Raj’s care for the night! From the start, him and his wife were incredibly communicative in sending us regular updates, pictures, and even videos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pup was having a blast and being very well taken care of. Their dog Kaju was great company for our dog Bruno. They were also extremely knowledgeable about dogs and handled everything with confidence and care.. Bruno got plenty of playtime, attention, and love, and we could tell he felt comfortable and happy the entire time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Raj again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter!”
“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”
“Maddie enjoyed playing with the dogs at Vickie’s house and they’ve got a good yard for her to run and play. Vickie kept me updated with photos and videos from the weekend.”
“Jolanta was the perfect sitter for our nervous puppy. She has a beautiful home with a fenced backyard, and our puppy loved getting to play with another dog during the stay. Jolanta sent great photos and videos and has such a warm, knowing way with dogs. It was clear our puppy had a wonderful time, and I recommend her with utmost confidence.”
“We had never left Jake with a sitter so we were a little bit nervous. But at the moment we met Lauren and saw all her effort to make Jake feel welcome, we felt confident that he was in good hands. She kept me posted and sent pictures of him and he was very happy to be with Lauren. 100% recommended!!! I’m happy we found Lauren!”
“Nantikan was absolutely fantastic and our dogs Anna and Cooper had a great time during their stay. They were treated like they were part of the family right from the get go. We also really appreciated the daily photos and updates on how they were doing. I would absolutely recommend Nantikan if you need someone to love your dogs and treat them like family members.”
“Chelsea has watched my dog Willow twice now and each time is better than the next! She is very attentive, super easy to contact, and even sends pictures of my dog with Chelsea’s other furry friends or overnight guests! I feel secure knowing Willow is so entertained and well cared for. I highly recommend her and look forward to my own future bookings with her!”

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Upper Freehold 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 Upper Freehold 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 Upper Freehold.
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 Upper Freehold. 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 Upper Freehold 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.
