Very attentive to Mojo. Mojo was very scared and wouldn’t come out of his kennel/carrier, but Thomas tried to get him out with food and toys, lots of patience! He has a very calm demeanor to help calm your pet.

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!

Caitlin was so incredible to our girls. We got lots of great pictures and updates! She was great for both my super senior and my rocket dog who never wants to quit playing. They were picked up and dropped off which was such a blessing when our flights were at crazy times. Sue gave us the sweetest parting gift as well. Love Caitlin!!!

Becky was amazing!! Our corgi is very timid and shy. She was so gentle and caring with her, making sure to give her time to warm up and allowing her space to roam. She sent me daily pictures and update and made me feel at ease. If we weren’t moving out of state, I would use her again and again!!!!

Talishia was amazing. Not only was she super accommodating and flexible as this was a less than 24 hour need/ask to need to, she was extremely kind, warm and wonderful with our dog. It was evident she cared very much about our dog and was be determined she would have a good experience and she did! We will definitely use Talishia again!

Sara was great with communication with us. She set up a meet 'n' greet with my dog and myself before we officially booked. Everything at her place was well set up and I liked the fact that she had an area fenced in for dogs to run freely. She gave updates and sent videos and pictures to us while we were away which my kids loved. Would definitely book again with Sara.

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!

FAQs for Boarding - Princeton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Princeton on Rover is $40.43 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 434 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Princeton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.
