About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and started pet sitting when I was 14. I have looked after many different animals including dogs, cats, lizards, and a spider! I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior animals and animals with disabilities as well. I am currently working a part time job so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets! If I am needed on an hourly basis, let me know two weeks beforehand so I can schedule time off work. I can stay overnight at your house if needed I will not bring your pets over to my home because my own dog is unsure about other animals. I like to stay with the animals for two hours each time I check in on them to keep them company and to play with them. I can also stay overnight and all day if needed.

I am recently retired from full time work, so my schedule is flexible to help care for your pets when you can’t. Pets come first for me. Pets do much better in their own home. Dogs and cats are comforted when they are with someone who is focused on giving attention and love that they need, on a schedule they are accustomed to.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. At the moment, we have two rescues and a golden doodle. Since our golden doodle will be 13 this year, I am especially good with senior pets. I definitely still love puppies and all their craziness as we have had a few growing up!! Since I am currently home from college, my schedule is very open! I am pretty much available most days and times. I will be able to take majority of the day before bookings as I know emergencies happen and your fur baby might need a visit before you are able to get home. My dogs are my whole world and yours will be too. I treat every dog with kindness, understanding, and respect no matter what. I am very good at following directions when caring for your pet in your home and am not afraid to ask questions if I am unsure of something.
About: I have many years of experience with dogs. I have owned dogs the majority of my life and have also done dog sitting on and off. I have attended dog training classes for my own dogs where I have learned training skills. I have also been involved in virtual training lessons. We currently do not have a dog but the whole family loves them more than anything. There are kids in the household from 7- 14 yrs old. They are very gentle and loving towards animals, in fact there is nothing they love more than dogs. Your pet will be showered with love in our home. When dogs are here they are family! I don't work outside the home so I am usually home and available to pamper and play with pets and with my husband working from home someone is here 90% of the time. We have a large house with plenty of room to run around. We have a good sized yard and great neighborhood for going on walks. We typically only take one booking at a time so your dog(s) would likely get the whole place to themselves. Your dogs will be happy staying here and you can be assured they will get a lot of play time. I am home all day so the pets are the center of attention and completely pampered while they are here! My husband also works from home. We have a fenced in yard. We have a swimming pool that is uncovered from April - September so if that is a safety concern with your dog this is not a good fit. We do have a pool alarm that notifies us if anything enters the pool.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Princeton
Mary has been walking our dogs now for almost 2 years. I don’t trust my dogs with a lot of people but watching how excited they get when she comes in. Even my anti-social dog loves her. She always lets us know if something out of the ordinary happens, or even when all 4 dogs behave beautifully. I wouldn’t trade her for the world!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Princeton on Rover is $19.26 per walk (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Princeton.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Princeton. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
