“Mia is an answer to our prayers. She loves and spoils our golden as much as we do. After years of having someone stay at our home and take care if our dog while we were away, we were forced to find an alternative. We dreaded the thought of leaving our dog with a stranger. After a lot of careful research, we found Mia. She listened to our concerns and wants and to dogs needs for his well-being. She welcomed us to her home so we could see where our dog would be staying while we were away. Her fenced in back yard is literally a dogs playground. While we were away,”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a big part of who I am! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, and making sure dogs get their potty breaks and daily care on time. I also love keeping them active with playtime, giving them lots of affection, and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. As a dog owner myself, I understand that dogs are family, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I’m a very happy, patient, and loving person who enjoys making sure every pup gets plenty of attention and a little extra spoiling! My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in caring hands while you're away. 🐾❤️ I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to your furry family members! I’m available every day of the week, including weekends, and can give pets lots of attention and affection throughout the day. Bilingual (English and Spanish) I am also available for Holiday bookings! 🎄✈️🎃🦃 🍾 My home is a welcoming, pet-friendly environment with a spacious, fully fenced front and backyard where pups can enjoy supervised outdoor playtime and plenty of room to stretch their legs! ☀️ Inside, I have a spacious, single-story home where dogs can relax and feel comfortable. I want every pup to feel at home, whether that means playing outside or lounging indoors!
“Carolina was great with our energetic Labrador, Ranger. She regularly sent pictures and updates and he was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend trusting Carolina with your pets.”
“This is the second time leaving my 14 year old yorky with Jennifer and I can not rave about her enough. I have unpleasant experiences in the past with other people and have had trips where i’m worried because my baby is very old and fragile but I have left him twice with jennifer and she constantly sends me pictures and lucky looks very happy and honestly when i picked him up i think he did not mind staying. I am grateful that i can go at trips and be worry free that my baby is well taken care of.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own dogs for 12+ years each, giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ dogs while they were away, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I have experience caring for senior dogs who needed extra attention, including administering medications and IV fluids. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable following special care instructions to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I work full-time during the week, but I’m home by around 2:00 PM on weekdays, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pup. Your dog will only be home alone for a limited amount of time, and I’ll be able to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care when I’m home. I’m also available for boarding on weekends and can provide a comfortable, loving environment while you’re away. I have a fenced-in yard that provides a safe and comfortable space for dogs to play and get some fresh air. My home is very pet-friendly, and I’m able to provide a calm, caring environment where your dog can feel comfortable and at home. I’ll follow your dog’s routine and any special instructions to make sure they receive the care and attention they need.
“Great service. First time ever using a doggy sitting service and I must say it won’t be my last time. I was very pleased with Kiara’s attention to my old man. She gave him his meds when needed and would keep me updated on his stay with her with pictures and videos. I will most definitely be rebooking with her again. Thank you for taking care of my Benji, Kiara.”

My Honey is very scared of new people but from the first meeting with Maria she took to her immediately. Maria sent me lots of pictures and some videos of my Honey and she looked happy and comfortable at Maria's home. I will definitely use her help again whenever I go on another vacation. And I really appreciate her pricing for my low income.
Maria was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my dog over the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She was loving, attentive, responsible, and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for at all times. It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. You can truly tell she loves animals and treats them with genuine affection. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after their furry family members. We will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾
Paula, she is very Professional & Detail Oriented. She took care of my dog for 9 days and he was well cared for in her hands. She even noticed my dog had an issue in his paw and pointed it out on Receiving day, She kept me Up-To-Date photos and texts about how his doing and behaving, cute lol 😆 🐾 🐕, Ten out of TEN, Would Book Again & RECOMMEND!!!
This is our 2nd time leaving our dog with Yanet. This time he stayed 4 days while we went to a wedding. As always my pup was well cared for, she sent videos and pictures of his walks and playtime. She kept me updated every day and had Sunny ready for me to pick him up when we got home. 10/10!!
Jonathan was fantastic with my Aussiedoodle, Yenn! He was super communicative throughout the whole stay and sent photos and updates regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind. Yenn came home happy and worn out, which is exactly what you want. Will 100% be rebooking. Highly recommend!
Thomas was excellent with our dog, he would constantly send us updates and pictures about what she was up to. We have a high energy husky and he was able to exceed her needs and take her for walks, let her play, etc. Truly one of the best dog sitters we’ve left our dog with, we had a lot of peace of mind that she was being cared for.
Giovanny was very accommodating to several modifications to our reservation for our pup Ace associated with my husbands recent heart surgery and subsequent complications. He communicated wonderfully and honored our requests as well as he possibly could. We plan on using him again real soon.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Princeton is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $51 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 2,547 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Princeton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Princeton 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 Princeton 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 Princeton.
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 Princeton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 Princeton 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 FL 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.
