“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.”

About: I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a longtime pet owner myself, I’m attentive to routines, behavior changes, and safety, and I focus on keeping pets comfortable, calm, and well cared for in a stress-free environment. I currently work a hybrid schedule and return to the office a few days each week. I plan pet care around my work hours and am available for visits after work on office days, with more flexibility on remote days. I always make sure visits are reliable, calm, and never rushed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while caring for them in their own home. I follow instructions closely, respect routines and boundaries, and maintain a clean, calm environment. I’m careful with doors, food, and litter areas, and I always prioritize safety, close observation, and clear communication with owners.

“This was the first time using Rover and Yasmine made it so easy for us! She kept us updated sending cute pics of our cat Oreo. We had to pick him up earlier than scheduled and Yasmine didn’t have a problem with that. She’s super kind with animals, if we need someone to take care for our cat again we definitely gonna go back to her, thanks again Yasmine!”

“Sharyn was so great with our cats. It's my first time using this app and she was helpful from day one. We went on a 7 day vacation and she came to feed the kitties everyday. She spent an hour with us so that we could show her where everything for the kitties was. Everyday we received pictures from her and she was very sweet with our cats. Such a sweet lady, she's hired for our next trip. ❤️”

“Alexis was a phenomenal sitter! She watched our cat, Miso, for a week while we were on vacation. She spent substantial time playing with and caring for him, and she sent thoughtful updates each day. I could tell Miso grew incredibly comfortable in her presence. Also, she kindly swept and brought in packages for us, which was by no means expected but shows the extra care she puts into her clients. I highly recommend her and will certainly be booking her again in the future!”

“Yaqin was great with Fafa! It was too hot outside for a regular walk, so she adjusted the visit and found other ways to keep Fafa active and entertained. She even did some strength exercises with him and gave him plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated how attentive she was and how well she adapted to Fafa’s needs. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: As an outdoorsy animal lover with years of experience, I am able to keep up with high energy and dogs of all sizes! I love to spend my free time with my 6 yr old German Shepherd by going on walks, hikes, and all kinds of adventures. I am currently on summer break from college with little to no commitment, so I have a very open schedule. I am open for mornings, afternoons, and evenings during weekdays and most weekends. I have large fenced-in backyard and a separate fenced-in play area intended for running laps with my dog. My German Shepherd is very friendly and loves to play with others.

About: When you entrust your pet to me, you're choosing someone whose career has been built on compassion, responsibility, and exceptional care. As a registered nurse with over 12 years of experience, I understand that every living being deserves individualized attention, patience, and a safe, nurturing environment. Caring for others is second nature to me. Throughout my nursing career, I've specialized in caring for seniors and individuals with unique medical and emotional needs. Those same skills translate seamlessly to pet care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or kitten, a senior needing extra patience, requires medication, has special needs, or simply thrives with extra love and attention, I have the experience and confidence to provide attentive, reliable care. Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always been more than a job—it's a passion. In addition to nursing, I own and operate my own concierge nursing and pet care business, where trust, professionalism, and personalized service are the foundation of everything I do. I know leaving your pet behind can be stressful. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind by treating your dog or cat like a member of my own family. You'll receive dependable communication, regular updates, and the reassurance that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all pet care. Every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved from the moment they arrive. My commitment is to provide the same level of compassion, attention, and professionalism that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as a nurse three days a week, which allows me plenty of flexibility and dedicated time on my days off to focus on pet care. On my off days, I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for by making sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, playtime, and any needed special care or medication. Because I’m used to working in a caregiving profession, I’m very organized and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide dependable, unhurried care so each pet gets the attention they deserve, whether that’s extra walks, cuddle time, or sticking closely to their normal routine. I provide flexible, reliable, and attentive care both in my home and in my clients’ homes, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I offer drop-in visits, daily care, and overnight stays, as well as boarding in my own home where pets are welcomed into a safe, calm, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and any special routines are handled with consistency and care. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care throughout the day. In all settings, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine love. I also believe in clear communication, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is always to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve been around many types of animals all my life including exotic, farm animals, and house pets like cats and dogs. I love them all equally and would be happy to care for any pet! I currently work full time but typically have 3 days off a week. I will be going back to school in the fall but will still have availability. While I cannot currently look after pets in my own home, I am happy to accommodate most needs for any animal in their own home.

About: Hi everyone!! My name is Sherine! I love dogs and cats..well…pretty much all animals. I have taken care of a family members dog, by bringing it into my home when they were away, as well as stopping by their place to feed and walk their dog. I have sent pictures to update the family member in regards to when the dog was picked up, dropped off and photos of their walk. I understand the need to know because I would want to know ☺️ I am now going to be off for the rest of March except for like one or two days; unless something changes. Then I will update everything here! My schedule then by April will be open from 1:30 to 7:30. Please do not hesitate to reach out…you know how life is..one second ur floating and the next your saying what happened lol. I have an enclosed balcony for easy outdoor access and I have a room to host a dog or a cat. I have two male cats of my own who are very good with other animals.

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.

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.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Princeton Junction

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Princeton Junction is $26 per visit as of October 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 October 2026, there are 2,258 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 .

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.

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 .

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 , 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.
