“I can’t recommend Yesenia enough! She is incredibly professional and her communication is top-notch. From the moment she started taking care of my dog, it was clear that she genuinely cared. With our first meet and greet, she took the time to understand my rescue dog’s fears and anxieties around new people, and her approach was simply amazing. Not only did she flawlessly do her job, but she also built a bond with my dog which is not common being that he’s very scared of everyone. I was impressed by how great she was with him. Thank you for providing such exceptional care!!”
About: I have many years of experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments. Friends, neighbors, and family rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I am also experienced in administering basic medications and always handle every pet with patience, care, and love, as if they were my own family. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to dedicate ample attention to pets throughout the day. I thoughtfully organize my routine to cater to each pet’s needs, covering feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I focus on safety and diligently follow each pet’s routine. I keep a clean, peaceful environment, supervise pets constantly, and stick to house rules. I stay in regular contact and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after.
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.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Princeton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
