“I highly recommend Ms. Jaclyn! She bonded quickly with Lula and upon my return home, Lula's usual anxiety wasn’t present. Ms. Jaclyn was kind enough to bring in a package I forgot was coming in. Ms. Jaclyn is now on my speed dial when I have to go on my trips! James S.”
“My little girl is anxious but Savannah did amazing! She was so patient and even came to meet Stella (my dog) beforehand so everyone was safe and comfortable. Couldn’t be happier! Savannah went above and beyond. Thank you so much for taking care of Stella!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets for over seven years, including Jonah (Golden Retriever), Jessie (Golden Pyrenees), and Mittens (tuxedo cat). My background includes hands-on experience caring for family animals and taking in rescues reflecting a lifelong dedication to animal care. My current schedule allows for consistent availability throughout the entire week, with mornings/afternoons before 4pm preferred. My availability after 4pm varies daily, so feel free to message to prior to booking! My home is a pet-friendly (and pet filled) environment with a large fenced yard for outdoor play, though most of our time with Mittens is spent indoors surrounded by toys and cozy spots to relax. I have three resident pets — Jonah, a Golden Retriever, Jessie, a Golden Pyrenees, and Mittens, a tuxedo cat — all of whom love playtime and are great company.
“Marcela did a fabulous job taking care of Chesty while I was out of town. She always kept me informed, asked questions when needed, and showed genuine attention and care for him. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Will definitely seek her services again!”

“Lindsey was absolutely amazing with our Cobalt. She took such great care of him and kept us in the loop during every visit. She is very kind and caring and we will be booking with her again!”
“Amy was an absolute lifesaver when she extended for a week when I was delayed coming home due to a family illness - thanks so much, Amy!! She was so patient with our skittish kitty, finally winning her over, ending with pets and lap naps! I highly recommend this wonderful lady!”
“Mary is great!! She is the epitome of an animal lover and an overall amazing human being! Being new to the area we don’t have many options when it comes to leaving our dog Maxx with someone and since he’s not the friendliest with other dogs, it makes it rather difficult to board him. After reading several of Mary’s reviews, we knew she was the one for Maxx but didn’t know if she would be available with such late notice, especially since she also boards and was fully booked for the days we would be away. She not only made herself available but she also came by the day before just to meet him so that he was comfortable with her. He took to her instantly! The update pics that she would send also proved that Maxx was happy and being well taken care of. We are absolutely going to look to use Mary for all our future needs! Thanks for everything Mary!!”

“Courtney was the best with my girls! She took such great care of them and gave them lots of love while I was away. It definitely made my older dog that has major anxiety feel so much better she was here to care for them. If you need someone I recommend Courtney 1000%! Thanks Courtney!”
“Ariana is fantastic! She helped us out on short notice and is a wonderful professional. Her daily updates were consistently done like clockwork. We felt so good knowing our pup was in good hands. Thank you, Ariana ! We will definitely call you again! Kelli & Sierra (woof!)”
About: I have cared for fur babies since I was a baby myself. I have grown up with all different kinds of animals but our dogs have had the most special place in our hearts. I admire their obedience and loyalty and it’s something I feel we almost don’t deserve. I will take good care of anyone’s dog and treat them as my own. I would love to help you out and I have trusted services! I currently am a full time teacher so can care for dogs based on a 8-5 work schedule. I can also break away for 30 minutes for lunch.

“Tracey is so accommodating and great with the pups! She is very punctual and detailed while caring greatly for her furry clients. Definitely would recommend and will keep booking her in the future!”
About: I have always had pets in my life since I was at a very young age. I recently moved to Princeton with my family and we are animal lovers all the way! I currently work from home, I and my wife also have a dog Luka who is 3 y/o and would love some company to play and exercise. We live on a nice apartment property, located super close to Carrollton Blue and Orange trails and outdoor. We always clean up and respect our four-legged friends. I have a very flexible job, that allows me to take many breaks during the day, allowing me to look after the doggies. I usually have smooth music for Luka while I'm on a call, but 80% of the time we just hang out until the next break to go out and walk around. On weekends we like going to the outdoors to get that extra excersice when needed. I take care with the basics needs first, always filtered water and safe to use toys, I like keeping them entertained with toys or a comfy sofa to lay down. I like taking them on walks nearby, as our apartment isn't fenced I like to keep him on a leash until we go to a park where they can run a little and stretch those legs.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Princeton is $20

Jaclyn is an amazing pet sitter. She is responsible, communicative, punctual, and truly professional. This was the first time we trusted our furry babies to a pet sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She exceeded our expectations in every way. Our pets felt comfortable with her, trusted her, and it was clear they were in great hands. We will definitely be working with Jaclyn again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Sydney has been a fantastic pet sitter for our cat, Chester, while we were away for a week. She followed all of our instructions carefully, took great care of him, and kept us updated throughout our trip. We also returned to find our home in excellent condition. We truly appreciate her reliability and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
Kimberly was great with our cats! She was always on time, sent us photos, and kept us updated with any changes. She was very attentive with giving medication to our one cat and adjusted her approach until she accepted the medicine. Would 1000% recommend Kimberly!!!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Princeton on Rover is $18.95 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.

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.
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 sitter.
