“Deepa took wonderful care of our dog, Bruzo, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, she was kind, attentive, and communicative, keeping us updated with messages and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She also made sure Bruzo was comfortable with the other dogs and the home. Bruzo was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Deepa treated him like one of her own, paying attention to his routine and making sure he felt loved and safe. We truly appreciate her reliability and care for Bruzo. We would absolutely trust Deepa with Bruzo again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
“What can I say!!!!! What an INCREDIBLE experience!!! This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to have found Tracey! An incredible woman with a loving family and an amazing way with our furbabies! This was our biggest concern, our dogs are like family to us, they live, sleep, eat, inside the house. They are used to apartment life although we recently moved into a large house with a yard and after only being here for a few months we leave for a planned vacation, I know they were probably thinking... WTH!!! Tracey quickly remedied any concerns we may have had, our two large dogs seemed to fit right in with her crew. Ranger is pretty easy going for an old man, but we often refer to Roxie as "Anxious Agnes" her anxiety levels are through the roof sometimes. They both seemed to adjust to Tracey and her home like they had lived there forever! While onboard the ship we received updates and pictures when possible and when we arrived back home, I'm not sure they wanted to leave! LOL Thank you so much Tracey for inviting us into your home and including our family as part of yours! I'm sure this is only the first of many vacations these two troublemakers will get to look forward to spending with you and yours!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”
“Absolutely the Best Dog Sitter! We are so grateful to have found someone as incredible as Jennifer to care for our dog, Raven. She truly feels like family and treats our pup with the same love, attention, and care as if they were her own. We trust her completely, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing our dog is in the best hands when we’re away. She is reliable, thoughtful, and goes above and beyond…..from sending updates and photos to making sure our dog feels comfortable, happy, and loved at all times. Finding someone this trustworthy is rare, and we feel incredibly lucky to have her in our lives. Highly recommend her to anyone…..your pet couldn’t be in better hands!”
“Nicole and John were incredible with my dog Mae. This was my first time using Rover, and I was hesitant given Mae is 10 years old and is usually watched by family or a family friend when we are out of town. Mae took to them immediately, and Nicole and John provided lots of love and care, checked in, and sent pictures. I had such a peace of mind while I was away. I’m grateful to have found sitters I can rely on for future trips!”
“Shalini and her family were Prepared and organized during our meet and greet. Asked me a lot of questions about my fur baby. Her kids love dogs as well and this made me feel very comfortable leaving my fur son. He definitely went straight to sleep in the car he played a lot. Lol Shalini is flexible and accepted my request on short notice due to work. We will be back soon regularly!”
“I can’t say enough nice things about Jingyi. I found out I was getting a new roof at 7:00 am the next day. I started searching for someone on Rover because my last sitter wasn’t doing it anymore. So at 9;00 pm I started corresponding with her. She lives five minutes away. I dropped my two boys off and she was very cordial. I received the cutest pics and videos from her. Her precious little boy especially loved my Pomeranian. They were there for the day and I plan on using her when I go out of state at end of the month. Highly recommend.”
“Katie is AMAZING! She showed so much love to our pup and attention to detail. She sent photos and a update each date. She went above and beyond to make our senior pup comfortable in her home. Thanks again Katie! Please use her your animals will love this family. ?”
“Jonai is amazing! I cannot express enough how thankful we are we found her. She treated our baby with so much love. She sent daily pictures and kept us informed of everything. Her house is super dog friendly. I will definitely have her sit for us again.”
“We were away for two weeks and Melissa took amazing care of our dog, Buster. She sent photos almost every day. She arranged special trips, including camping in Shenandoah Valley! She even made him homemade dog biscuits. He was very happy and we enjoyed our vacation that much more because she was taking such good care of our old guy.”
“Elaine and Steve were absolutely wonderful to my pooch. They are very kind and welcoming. I had no worries at all leaving my pooch in their care. Elaine kept in touch with plenty of pics and prompt replies. I definitely recommend and will rebook in the future.”
“TaKaria is such a blessing! I’m new to the app and was nervous to have someone watch my baby especially cause I’m new to Texas and didn’t know anyone but, She watched my doggy while I went away to work and she was in great hands with her, Nomie loved her, she sent me pictures and kept me updated about my Nomie. Definitely recommend!”
“This is my first time using Rover. I was reluctant to try it sooner because I’ve heard mixed reviews about it but after researching profiles, repeat clients and review ratings I thought I’d give it a try. Lisa and David were my first experience. We had to travel out of town for the holidays and couldn’t take our dog Ruby. The initial meet and greet went well. Ruby seemed comfortable and Lisa and David were very friendly and answered any questions I had so we moved forward and booked. Ruby was with them for 5 days and I was sent several pics each day with updates and overall how Ruby was adjusting. She looked happy and calm which took my stress away! I can tell how much Lisa and David love animals and treated her like their own. I will definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Taylor and David were amazing! They made me feel comfortable boarding my golden retriever for the first time. They scheduled a meet and greet and were willing to answer my questions. They sent pictures and kept me updated during his stay. And he had so much fun running and playing that he slept all day his first day home. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Luka loved staying at Mary’s house, it’s very big and he loves the outdoors. She kept us updated about Luka and sent many pictures!! Hoping for more future stays!”
“Amazing family! You guys are in safe hands if you plan to leave your baby with Sinduja’s family. They’ll keep updating you with pictures. I gave them the schedule and she followed it to the . Thank you Sinduja and family for taking care of Moz.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Princeton
We had a great experience with Deepa! She sent pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know how our dog was doing as well as communicating and asking questions about our girl as needed. It was nice to know our dog was being well cared for while we were away!
My puppy, Koda, had the best time boarding with Halee. He stayed with her for 10 nights/11 days and we got photos of him every day that we were gone! He met and played with soooo many different dogs. This was his first time being boarded so it was very important we chose a good person to have him stay with and we feel like we made the best decision choosing Halee.
Our 2 dogs stayed 5 days with Jacqueliene and she was amazing to work with! She’s very responsive, attentive, and sent many updates on our two pups with pictures (which we loved!!). She was extremely accommodating to both of the dogs’ individual needs as far as feeding, sleeping arrangements, time outdoors, and more! We are excited to have a reliable pet sitter and will definitely be working with her again in the future!
Ishita took perfect care of my pup. My pup had a lot of special care needs, surgery stitches to protect, medication, abs finicky eating. Ishita kept him safe and happy and well-cared for. She even fed him by hand to help him eat enough to take his medicine. I’m so grateful for her care!
100% recommended. Marcela is very caring and looked after my little Mylo like her own child. She's very responsible and dedicated. I was always kept informed during the four days I left him in her care, and I felt comfortable and safe. I truly found a second home for my baby.
WOW - our cocker spaniel, had so much fun here! He was taken on daily walks and given so much love. He returned home a very happy boy. He’s eight years old and had never stayed with anyone other than family, but he felt right at home with them. We loved the daily updates and pictures that we were sent. We were able to go on vacation and know that our precious boy was being well taken care of and was safe and happy. We will definitely use Silviu and Stanca again in the future!
We had a truly wonderful experience with Kimberley. Her communication was always timely, and we really appreciated the regular updates along with pictures of our pet — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond by hand‑feeding our dog when he wasn’t eating, which meant a lot to us. We are extremely grateful for Kimberley’s care and dedication, and we would happily board our dog with her again.
Amber & Ronnie well excited to meet Milo. Milo has a separation anxiety and possessive nature. Amber said no problem. We can take care of him. I’m very happy with their care. They were even flexible to pick up and drop Milo. They give me constant updates on how he was doing. I highly recommend them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Princeton is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $50 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,838 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Princeton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Princeton home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 TX 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.
