“These folks are awesome. Great property that is convenient in location. They treated my pup with a ton of care and worked with her particular needs. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Liz is amazing. She has a great property that Luna seemed to really enjoy. Liz has extensive knowledge about dogs and animals in general. I look forward to booking with her again.”
“Amber was wonderful! She sent us several updates, including videos and pictures, was very friendly, took great care of our two girls and had great communication! We look forward to booking with her again :)”
“She was great! Kept me updated daily, sometimes several times a day with lots of photos and videos. Also sent them home with toys, treats and a fresh bath. Would definitely use again!”
“Walt kept our boy, Teddi, for four days. Teddi is a 3 yo intact English Shepherd who has never spent a night away from us. Teddi is a very well behaved and friendly boy but we were a bit anxious how this would go. Walt kept us well informed on how Teddi was doing. Walt gave Teddi great care and a lot of attention. When we returned to pick up Teddi, it was obvious that he and Teddy had bonded very well. We are very pleased with the care that Walt provided and will certainly use him again.”
“We couldn’t be more grateful to Kailyn for taking care of our dog, Cooper. Our pup felt right at home since they also had a Goldendoodle. They were like 2 peas in a pod! They got along very well and we had peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and treated him like family! Cooper was well cared for! She kept us updated with messages and photos. Highly recommend Kailyn!”
“I was very impressed with Jason's punctuality and follow updates on my Bella. I was sent pictures to show me how she was doing. Bella seemed to be a very happy camper. I would recommend Jason to anyone for a future doggie date.”
About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs in structured, calm environments. I am comfortable managing multiple dogs at once, maintaining routines, and ensuring each dog receives individualized attention. My approach focuses on safety, consistency, and low-stress care. I have experience handling dogs with different temperaments and energy levels and prioritize clear boundaries, supervision, and predictable routines. Dogs in my care are monitored closely, housed individually when appropriate, and provided structured outdoor time based on compatibility. I take a calm, professional approach to animal care and believe structure and consistency are key to a positive experience. Pet care is a structured part of my daily routine. I work remotely, which allows me to be present throughout the day for supervision, care, and scheduled outdoor time. Dogs in my care follow a consistent routine that includes monitored activity, rest periods, and individual attention. This setup allows me to provide reliable, attentive care without overbooking or distractions. Dogs in my care are supervised closely and provided individual space as needed to ensure safety and low stress. I maintain a calm, structured environment with controlled interactions based on each dog’s temperament and comfort level. My focus is always on safety, routine, and providing a clean, secure, and relaxed home environment. Drop-off and pickup times are scheduled in advance within set windows to support a calm and consistent environment.
“An awesome-active sitter. Her and her husband took really good care of my dog and provided plenty of updates. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with this sitter and I will be back. A hospitable home in a nice area.”
About: I am the proud owner of Siberian Huskies. We spend lots of time outdoors hiking and playing in creeks/rivers. My furkids love play dates and we schedule as many as possible. I love to be outdoors enjoying the beauty of the area in which I reside. I have a fully enclosed chain-link fenced in yard at my home, but we still walk 3-6 miles every day. I will enjoy walking with your pets as well and will strive to make sure that the time you are away will be as enjoyable as possible.
“We had a terrific experience with Heather caring for our 2 dogs. She was quick responding to texts and sent pictures of our dogs looking very comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Heather for pet care.”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life — from training my two family dogs to growing up with cats. I’ve also provided pet sitting for multiple family friends, giving each pet the same love and attention I give my own. I work until 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, so I’m available for afternoon, evening, and weekend care. My schedule allows me plenty of time for walks, playtime, and snuggles after work! Ihave a big backyard that’s perfect for playtime and plenty of walkable areas in a safe, friendly neighborhood. I love playing fetch with my dog and don’t mind pups relaxing on the furniture — I want them to feel right at home!
Over 85 pet parents in Princeton have booked dog boarding
Princeton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kirsten was a lifesaver! We had another Rover sitter cancel on us at midnight the day of drop off. Due to being a novice Rover user I didn’t even realize that the other sitter had cancelled until 10 minutes before the drop off time (when I was trying to message we were on our way). I was panicked. I messaged Kirsten because she was along our route to our vacation destination and she responded extremely quickly saying she could watch our dog and puppy. Within 3 hours we dropped off both dogs and she cared for them like they were her own. We were greeted cheerfully immediately upon arrival and received regular updates. We even had to adjust pick up times and she was very accommodating. Can’t say enough about how great she was for our puppies. Thanks for saving us this week!
Kirsten was amazing!! She absolutely saved my life by agreeing to a last minute booking and she was super knowledgeable and confident in understanding dog behavior. I felt so comfortable leaving my two boys with her, and I am admittedly a bit of a helicopter parent sometimes, but she put me entirely at ease! Would recommend her to anyone!!
