“It is my first time using Rover and I had a very positive experience working with Catrina. I was traveling abroad to a different time zone and she was able to work around the time difference the first few visits to ensure I was awake during her visits. My cats are not used to having many visitors and one especially gets scared very easily, but they both seemed to quickly warm up to Catrina within a few days. She was consistent with her visits, sending me updates and pictures daily. I was quickly at ease during my travels because I knew the cats were well taken care of. All of my notes and instructions were followed and Catrina communicated well if anything popped up. I was very happy coming home to happy kittens and definitely want to book with her again for any future trips.”
“Hannah was awesome with my cat!! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I came home and my cat seemed quite happy and well taken care of. I feel I can trust her with my baby when I am away.”
“Ami was incredible to work with. She’s thorough and communicative and I felt so at ease knowing my cat was being so well taken care of. Can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“Kassidy was the perfect caretaker for our precious kitties. She was prompt, communicative, caring, enthusiastic, and was truly interested in the well being of our pets, and us as pet owners.”
“Sha was a wonderful drop-in cat sitter for our shy/sometimes spicy cat. She was very easy to communicate with and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Would absolutely recommend her and would book again.”
About: I've been caring for pets for a little over 5 years now. I used to work at a pet store handling fish, birds and small animals as well. I have a 5 year old golden retriever as well as 2 cats. I can help administer medications for dogs and cats that need it. I can also care for elderly dogs and puppies. I don't mind bathing them or doing nail trims either. I'm currently a college student doing online classes so I have plenty of time to drop by a clients house or to have them come to mine. Right now Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays work the mest with my schedule. I would be more than willing to negotiate other timings as well. I have a fenced in backyard and a dog to keep yours company. My entire house is pet friendly and welcoming. I can also crate your dog if needed and make the environment more comfortable for them
About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!
“Bhali was so helpful and caring with our two dogs. They were well taken care of and very happy to go on walks with her. She catered to their needs and we appreciated the punctual check-ins with detailed updates and photos. Thank you so much Bhali!”
About: ACCEPTING SAME DAY/ SHORT NOTICE BOOKINGS Hello!! I’ve had dogs and cats and pets of all kinds since I was a kid! So it’s over 20 years now 🥲 I have 5 years of experience as a volunteer for my local shelter, fostering kittens and dogs. I’ve cared for sick and skittish animals. I’ve personally had mostly small and medium shelter recuses, but I’ve cared for all types, big or small! I’ve had 3 cats for the last 10 years and I’m a certified cat lover 😻😻 I’ve also looked after guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and even frogs, so basically if it has fur, fins, or a tank, I’ve probably fed it at some point. I’m excited to look after your fur babies as well! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I keep a flexible, full-time schedule so I can be available whenever care is needed! I’m available for overnights, regular check-ins, and walks whenever your pet needs them, including weekdays and weekends. Whatever routine your pet is used to, I can work around it!! Since I care for pets in their own home, I can keep their routine exactly as it is if you were there. The same food times, same walk schedule, same rules. I’m careful about doors and gates, keep the home secure while you’re away, and treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own :))
About: Extensive animal care experience. Animal science college major, veterinary technician experience for 3 years. Knowledgeable and capable of handling any kind of dog or cat, experience with small pets as well and birds. Compassionate with all animals, patient and understanding of animal behavior. Loves all breeds of dog or cat. I work full time but am free afternoons and evenings and most weekends. I work from home Wednesdays and Fridays so I have more flexibility those days. I am a 35 year old responsible home owner and animal lover looking to provide the right care where needed. I am easy going with a calm personality which is well received by pets. My schedule is fairly flexible and I am always responsive and accessible via my phone. I have a m-f full time job but can care for pets before and/ or after work. The time I go to work and return home has some flexibility. I work from home Wednesday and Friday and have a little more flexibility on those days. I’m available most weekends too. I can accommodate your needs to the best of my ability. I am open to house sitting and overnights as well as walks. I’m comfortable providing care for all types of pets. I have a very large crate at my house if a house stay requires the pet be crated. I’m happy to stay at a house if need be to provide care. I have two cats at my house that I would keep separate if I were pet sitting at my own house.
About: Your animals are important to me! I have experience with all size dogs and cats (even bunnies, chickens, and guinea pigs). I can sit anytime from one night to an entire week. Taking care of your creatures and your home is a responsibility that I take seriously. My schedule is best suited for dogs that need 4-6 hours between going out. Other dog families, I am happy to talk to you about a schedule that works for us! Cats are welcome for any day of the week. Your animals and home are my priority. I take the time to learn your pet's unique style of communication, energy levels, and sociability. I want to know your animal's quirks, preferences, and routines to serve them best! I want to know if they have a favorite toy, hiding spot, or treat so they can feel the most secure while their parents are gone.
“Jahari helped us out last minute when we needed someone with an extra skillset to check in on our girl. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter and in particular anyone needing the extra layer of assurance a vet tech can provide. He is super kind and accommodating and we are glad to have found him!”
“We feel so fortunate that Bethany cared for our cat and our plants! She immediately earned our trust and kept in touch with just the right amount of communication, making us feel reassured and connected while we were away. We came home to a happy cat and plants that looked even better than when we left. We hope to have Bethany visit again in the future!”
About: I have owned a couple of dogs, along with caring for families and neighbors animals. I have experienced caring for animals with medical issues as well. I am a new mom looking for some extra work where I can bring my little one with me. I have a very flexible schedule. I will treat you home as I would want mine to be treated!! Any rules given will be followed and if your pet could talk they would ask where I am to play when I am not there ◡̈
“Hannah was great taking care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She texted, and every day we received pictures of our two shy cats, accepting her from the first visit. Hannah is trustworthy and reliable, deserved honest recommendation.”

This is the second time I have booked Jill and I will definitely be reaching out to her for my future pet sitting needs. Jill is extremely professional, friendly, helpful, and all around a great person to work with. She was patient and won the trust of my very shy adult cat and kept me well informed with updates and pictures while I was out of town.
I’m glad I was able to book Nicholas again! He was very observant and gave detailed reports about my cat, and made sure to go find him when he didn’t come downstairs to say hi. My cat can be a little shy at first but he warmed up to Nicholas right away! Will definitely rebook next time I’m traveling.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Princeton Junction is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $36 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 638 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Princeton Junction. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
