About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs for about 5 years now, whether it be my own, neighbors, or friends. I also worked in a doggy day care for about a year before I had to leave since I moved. I have experience with dogs as large as great dane's and as small as teacup pups. I have walked, fed, and even given a bath from time to time. I also have experience with giving dog’s medication if they need it. I am currently a student and am not working a job, I only have about 3 hours worth of classes a day. I also only have my club activities for about an hour three nights a week. When it comes to others dogs when letting them out I watch them if they have a gated yard if not I make sure to follow the directions exactly. I make sure they can’t get anything they can choke on. I almost always have an eye on the dog I am watching. I treat the pup as if they were my own and give them so much love!
About: I’ve watched all sizes puppies and all sizes are puppies. I’ve watched a senior babies and foster pups and middle age babies. I love the fur babies and want them to be happy while parents are away. I work full time but come home on my lunch break and let my dogs out and give them a treat. My bonus mom also gets home before me and lets my dogs out so it’s every couple of hours they are let out. I have a fenced in yard and y dogs don’t go out without me being there with them each time. I keep a water bowl outside and I have a ball for fetch and a few toys too

I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment while their owners are away. I am currently unemployed and looking to love on your pups! I have all week free and available for your families needs and help ease your mind with your fur babies are home alone! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I have extensive experience of dog sitting, housesitting and babysitting. I was a full-time nanny for about seven years and began dog sitting from time to time when I could. Now that those kids are older and I have graduated and gotten a full-time job in my field, I still try to dog sit, housesit and babysit during my free time. I have always loved working with children and pets and I am so grateful for each experience I’ve had so far. I like to try to do something active with the pets and children I care for instead of sitting inside for too long and I always leave homes tidy, and clean to provide an stress-free arrival for all parents. I work 8:30-4:30 Monday through Thursday and 8:30-12:30 on Fridays but I am always free on the weekends and I can always provide overnight care. I live and work in Shreveport so I accept jobs in both Shreveport and Bossier but no further than that as I feel I would not be able to provide adequate care at greater distances. I prefer to stay at the client’s home as the pets will not have to adjust to a new environment but I am not opposed to caring for one pet at a time in my home. As far as care, I like to meet the client and pet and get instructions on what routine they are used to so that I can follow that as closely as possible and keep them happy while their parents are away! I also like to stay in contact with parents to let them know what we have been up to and send them pictures of their pets with updates!

I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard.

I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 156 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Princeton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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 sitter.
