Lydia did such an AMAZING job at caring for our 2 cats! She provided excellent communication and was so attentive to our fur babies. Our cats tend not to like strangers but they warmed up to her quickly. She really helped us feel safer leaving our cats in her care while we were away, and she was so great through every step of the process. We will definitely look to hiring her again the next time we need a sitter!

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for over 15 years and truly love every personality, different breeds , and sizes- from playful puppies to shy senior cats and dogs. As a self‑employed sitter with a flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week for walks, drop‑ins, and overnight care.My calm, pet‑free home is ideal for cat boarding, offering cozy resting spots and a clean, quiet environment. I follow feeding schedules, litter preferences, and medication instructions closely. For dogs, I provide reliable walks, check‑ins, and overnight stays in your home, keeping their routine consistent and stress‑free. I’m gentle with anxious pets, patient with seniors, and always send photo updates so you can relax knowing your furry family is safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently self‑employed and make my own schedule, which means I’m extremely flexible and available seven days a week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home often, able to adjust my day around visits, walks, and overnight stays, and I prioritize keeping pets on their normal schedule. Whether you need early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last‑minute support, I’m able to accommodate a wide range of timing needs. I care for pets with a calm, gentle, and detail‑oriented approach. In your home, I follow your routines exactly! Feeding schedules, potty breaks, litter care, walks, medication instructions, and any special notes you provide. I keep your home tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I offer a quiet, pet‑free environment that is especially ideal for cats. I have cozy resting spots, safe areas for exploration, and a clean setup ready for boarding. Most owners bring their cat’s preferred litter box, litter, food, and carrier, but I also keep a clean backup litter box and extra litter available if needed. I move slowly with shy or anxious pets, give them space to warm up, and always prioritize their comfort. I send consistent photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re in good hands.

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.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I currently help care for a multi-pet household and am comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, potty breaks, litter box maintenance, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines while their owners are away. My background in hospitality taught me how important communication, reliability, and attention to detail are. You can expect regular updates, photos, and the peace of mind that your pet is being treated like family. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Whether your cat needs a quick drop-in visit, feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand how important consistency is for cats and will do my best to maintain their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. During every visit, I follow all care instructions carefully, double-check doors and gates, keep food and medications organized, and make sure your cat’s environment stays clean and safe. I’m experienced with multi-cat households and understand that each cat has a unique personality and comfort level. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Sydney was outstanding! This was my first time using Rover & I was honestly a bit worried overall. She clearly communicated, sent daily updates for my dog, & my fur baby was a happy camper along the way. I unexpectedly came back later, & needed Sydney to feed my dog at the last minute. She was able to come through for me with little notice. Very happy & will be booking her again for sure

About: I've taken care of every kind of dog i can think of from a teeny chihuahua to my late english bull terriers and pitbulls. (childhood dogs that grew up with me). I love helping to tire a dog out with outdoor activities or lounging around based on your pets vibe or your care instructions! Me and my family have also housed a large number of fosters. While i have never housed a cat myself ive watched my friends cats consistently growing up when theyve been on vacation or i was over at their houses. PLEASE NOTE while i love all animals i cannot work with reactive or aggressive animals for both mine and your pets saftey as i dont have enough experience handling more reactive and aggressive animals. I can also help in training younger pups most basic commands and some more advanced skills. i work 6am-6pm in a corporate desk setting monday through friday, and dont have much time during the weeks but on weekends im mainky free as a bird and like to fill my days with the gym, crocheting, reading and finding new music and tv shows to explore! I can't house your pet myself but i can surely come to you! As long as you arent too far away, i'll come

About: I’ve had pets of all kinds my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m confident, attentive, and genuinely love what I do. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them plenty of love, playtime, and comfort so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. 🐾💗 I am a high school senior heavily involved in band.

I can come in the afternoon after 4. On weekends when I’m in town I am flexible! During each visit, I can take your pet on walks, let them outside for bathroom breaks, feed them according to their routine, and spend time playing so they stay happy, active, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Princeton on Rover is $22.2 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,599 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Princeton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Princeton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Princeton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Princeton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Princeton. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
