“I used Sophia for an overnight stay for my golden retriever. She was great! What a perfect set up for dog boarding. The dogs have a huge area to play outside. Sophia sent updates with photos which was very nice. I will use her services again next time I need a sitter. ??”
About: My love for animals goes well back to when I was 4 or 5 and I was in charge of letting our neighbors dog out while they were on vk. (my mom was really there ;)) I always loved the 2 cats we had I'm sure but my love started growing for all animals when I took on that letting the neighbors pets out. Through highschool I volunteered when I could at the animal shelter a couple cities over and dreamed about owning my own training and boarding facility when I graduated. Well life pushed me into college and a career and 10 plus years later here I am with a degree I don't want a career in.... I'm going back to my dreams and would love for your dogs to be a part of the start of it! I have 3 fur babies of my own a cat and two dogs! All three rescues and loving life! Any questions feel free to reach out! Cant wait to meet everyone! I currently work Monday through Friday 8 to 5 as an intake coordinator for a hospital from home. My love is animals so all my spare time goes to fostering and volunteering for ruffstart along with taking care of others furbabies. All pets deserve lots of love but discipline when needed. I believe in positive reinforcement but some pups need a little more guidance and a shorter leash than others.. I plan on following owners directions and requests but offer guidance if wanted or needed. If all you want me to do is let your fur babies out and spoil them rotten I would absolutely love doing that! For boarding and doggy daycare I have an older resident dog so we can only take laid back submissive dogs for now. We do habe the capability to separate if she needs a break. We have a big Shepard mix that loves to play with everyone at only 3 years old!
“Kristi watched Oscar (our Cavapoo) for 12 days in her home. The experience was amazing for Oscar and for us. She was so attentive to our needs by checking in on a regular basis. She would ask questions about his behavior to see if it was unusual and asked how we would handle it so that she was responding to Oscar in the same way we would. She wanted things to be as normal as possible for him. As she described his bedtime ritual I knew that Oscar felt safe and loved because he doesn’t snuggle up like that with just anyone. Oscar even gave her a snuggle good bye when we left. I will use Kristi for all of our short and long term care needs. I can’t say how important it is to know Oscar is cared for in such a loving manner when we can’t be there. Thank you so much Kristi!”
“Outstanding. Totally recommend her, and I look forward to using her services more. Arlo, my mellow Husky, was so relaxed and content when I picked him up. She even sent several photos and updates during his stay.”
“We could not have asked for a better first experience finding care for our dog . Rebekah and her husband were so personable and seemed genuinely excited and happy to host our Nelly. Rebekah sent updates throughout the stay along with pictures . We will definitely hire her again ! Thank you for taking such good care of our furry family member!”
“She was a perfect match for the dogs. Needed someone to watch our dogs and she accepted. One of my dogs had a bad night with thunder storms, she was there to help my dog stay calm. Will definitely have her dog sit for me again! Thank you”
“Christina was wonderful. She took such good care of Rowdy. She took him on walks and seemed to treat him as if he was her own. I was very worried to leave him but she made us feel so comfortable and confident that he would be ok. She is also very knowledgeable and has a wonderful fenced in backyard. We will definitely use her again.”
“Andrea was great! She took many photos and sent them over which was great, we love seeing our little Douglas getting the love he deserves when we are gone! Would recommend Andrea greatly!”
“I’m very new to this pet sitting thing but I think overall it seemed to go okay. I needed to board her due to a move. Skye is busy checking out the new place. I would use her again for sure.”
“Leila received a ton of love and I could tell she was well cared for. I would not hesitate to book Meghann again. She and her family were wonderful and took great care of my elderly Leila. I received regular updates and Meghann's communication was excellent.”
“Alicia is great! My golden looked happy n relaxed when I picked him up. No ptsd or anxiety like his last sitter experience. She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. I think he even misses her ? That just makes me feel that much better when it comes time to board him again! Thank you Alicia!!”
“We were so happy to find a caring family to watch our 2 year old lab. They had just the right amount of communication and it was obvious he enjoyed his stay. We highly recommend Jeremy and Christina to watch your pup too.”
“Linnea was great! She was very patient with our two, sometimes crazy, dogs. I loved the communication and daily pictures. Both dogs were happy and tired when I picked them up:) Definitely recommend Linnea!”
“Candace took great care of Huckleberry and Annabelle. They had fun playing with the other dogs and she sent me updates and photos. I was nervous leaving my dogs for the first time ever, but she put my mind at ease. We have already booked with her again. Highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Princeton
We cannot recommend Olivia highly enough! We were so nervous about leaving our dog, Raylee, for a week while on vacation. Raylee is incredibly timid and shy—we actually tried boarding her at a kennel once, but she became so anxious and overwhelmed that the staff called us to pick her up after just an hour. Choosing Olivia was the best decision we could have made. Olivia was wonderfully patient, gentle, and understanding with Raylee, giving her the care and space she needed to feel safe. The updates and photos Olivia sent completely eased my mind and allowed me to actually relax and enjoy my vacation, knowing Raylee was in the best hands. If you have a sensitive or anxious pet, Olivia is an absolute lifesaver. We will definitely be booking her again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Princeton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Princeton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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 MN 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.
