“Sara did a great job taking care of our large puppies. She sent about 3 pictures a day which we really enjoyed and looked forward to. She also played outside with our dogs which they loveddd. I would definitely rebook with Sara.”
“She listened to the needs of our dog. Followed instructions we gave her for a dog. Our dog was happy and well cared for. Will definitely use her again. Definitely recommend to my friends or family”
“Pam is an extraordinary dog sitter! Your dogs will be loved and admired and well taken care of by Pam the entire time. Her home is beautiful and full of toys and all amenities you need for your dog. She also has a lovely fenced in yard that our dogs loved running around in. She sends pictures and updates and is easy to communicate with. I will definitely reach out to her again the next time I’m out of town! Thanks Pam!!!”
“Hannah & PJ, we’re great with Fletcher! He seemed to have a good time and that put me at ease 🩵 Their dog was a perfect playmate for him. I’m highly recommend their puppy care!”
“Kimberley was excellent! Tika had an amazing time and played with Kimberley’s fur babies during her stay. Kimberley kept me consistently updates on Tika’s stay and provided many pictures (one of which will become an 8x10 on the wall at home) I am very much appreciative of Kimberley’s service and would definitely recommend her for anyone’s pet. Thank you again Kimberley!!!”
“Mrs. Jennifer and her husband were great with my CoCo. They made us feel very comfortable with the decision to leave CoCo in their care. I was impressed with the opportunity to have a meet and greet before the stay. My first experience with Rover didn't have this opportunity and I was hesitant to use Rover again but an emergency situation came up. I'm thankful that I was able to come across Mrs. Jennifer's profile. CoCo was in a safe, clean environment and it showed when they sent pictures and videos and when I picked her up she was very happy. This was not our experience with Rover before. I will definitely recommend them for your boarding needs and I'll definitely be booking again.”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. The kids and I were apprehensive, but after meeting Mitzi, seeing her home, the kids and the other doggies,,,we felt at ease. Mitzi kept communicating with us about our beloved Ro’ & she sent us pics and vids of Ro’s adventures at her home. So glad that Ro had a great experience at Mitzi’s home😊.”
“Megan took care of my goldendoodle Pinki , You can really see her love for animals. She is so charismatic and attentive. You would be silly not to hire her to care for your animals. She is a package deal!! 10/10 Would reccomend!”
“My dog seemed like she had a great time after she calmed down after I left (separation anxiety)!! I was even given picture updates! I will definitely be coming back, you can tell Naomi really cares about each dog she watches and wants you to be worry free about your animals while you are away!”
“First time using rover or anything similar! We were so nervous but had to leave town for a funeral. Fransisco put all of our worries to bed! He agreed to a meet and greet with us and the dogs before we even booked. His location couldn't be any better for your pups vacation. With a dog park across the street and a fenced in backyard our dogs came home happy and chipper. I can't tell you how much happier our dogs were with Fransisco compared to boarding them. Last time we boarded our dogs they came home exhausted, smelly, paranoid. With Fransisco you can leave your pups with full spirits knowing they'll will be perfectly safe and healthy. Fransisco also has great animal expertise, when it comes to dogs with health complications, he is the pup sitter you NEED!”
“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”
“Kimberly was great with Brandy. Brandy has separation anxiety but it didn't seem like it while she was with Kimberly. I received pictures and videos of Brandy. I am very well pleased and will be using her services again.”
“Leonardo was amazing with my large breed dog, Jill, on a last-minute booking! He was super responsive, kind, and clearly great with big dogs. Jill loved him right away and came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“We love Joanne! She is wonderful with dogs. Her home is warm and inviting and the yard is a doggie oasis. Jasper loved his stay. Joanne provided daily updates and pictures. We will certainly utilize her services again.”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of my dog! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such kind and attentive hands. I really appreciate the time, patience, and love you showed!!! I will be rebooking! Thanks again😊😊😊💕”
“Kelli and Jake took such wonderful care of Herschel! I was able to relax on my trip knowing he was in such great hands. Our flight got delayed 9 hours & they were so kind in being flexible and caring for him!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Princeton on Rover is $44.63 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 386 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.
100% 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 NC 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.
