“Kate did an amazing job taking care of my baby kitten, Bella! She provided frequent updates, which gave me peace of mind, and it was clear my kitten was in great hands. Her care and attention to detail were exceptional, and I truly appreciated her reassurance throughout. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Ollie had the best little vacation with Thana & Subangi. Thana & Subangi’s multiple daily updates were such a comfort to us while we were in another country. They made the distance feel smaller. Everything was organized, simple, and thoughtful. We trust Thana & Subangi fully and will highly recommend them to anyone who wants their pup cared for with genuine love!”

About: Need a trusted sitter for your furry friends? I bring a lifetime of experience to your doorstep! Growing up in a household with five Shih Tzu-Poodles, I learned early on what it takes to keep pets happy and healthy. I’ve also successfully cared for French Bulldogs and understand their unique breed requirements.I proudly offer loving, attentive care for dogs, cats, and bunnies. From energetic walks, calm stays and specialized feeding routines, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Reach out today to schedule a meet-and-greet! I am available to look after your pup at any time of the day or night. Because I am always around on my pet sitting days, your pet will receive constant attention, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship.To ensure your pup feels right at home, I just ask that you provide a clear description of their daily routine and care needs (feeding schedules, bathroom habits, or special quirks) when booking! I live in an incredibly welcoming, pet-friendly apartment complex surrounded by a safe, quiet neighborhood. My apartment itself is spacious, clean, and has plenty of room for your pup to stretch out, play, or curl up for a nap.Outside, we are blessed with beautiful green spaces and walking paths right at our doorstep, making it easy to go for long, leisurely walks. Because I work from home, your dog will never be left unsupervised. I treat every guest like member of my own family, ensuring a safe, low-stress, and loving environment from drop-off to pick-up.
“Once again, we could not be happier with our boarding experience with Mr. Tao. Being away on vacation, it is such a relief to get regular updates on our dogs along with pictures of them having a great time. Mr. Tao and his family take excellent care of our dogs and are excellent at communicating regularly. The dogs seemed so relaxed when we picked them up which tells us that they had a vacation of their own and were very well take care of. Thank you Mr. Tao!!”
“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”
“Rory was very happy with Kim. She was very communicative during his stay. This was our first time using Rover and we are happy with how it went with Kim! Thanks!!”
“Easy 6 out of 5. Jaimie is an excellent sitter, she made sure my pup was happy, active, and comfortable... what more can you ask for with your best fuzzy buddy. I would easily recommend Jaimie to anyone looking for the "right choice" of sitter. She is someone who clearly knows what she's doing, and is very accommodating with people's schedules. She's awesome.”
“Kate is very responsive and accepted our last minute request .Wally was happy with Kate. Kate sent multiple updates and photos of Wally during stay and took good care of him.Will definitely book back in future.”
“I cannot say enough about Debi. Leaving our puppy for the first time was difficult but Debi made it a wonderful experience. We got frequent pics videos and texts that warmed our hearts and ensured us that Abby was safe and happy. It was like we left her with family.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my special-needs pup, Dottie, for 8 years. She’s on a strict diet and takes meds too, so I’m good with following precise instructions. I have a loving and serene home where Dottie and I can welcome your pup. I work from home on Fridays, so I am available for boarding for long weekends. We could coordinate a Thursday evening drop-off if need be. On the weekends, I go to a pilates class and run errands, but am otherwise around as company for the dogs. My yard is only partially fenced, so I will be taking the dogs on leashed walks. Dottie sleeps in bed with me, so it’s okay if your pup needs to as well. If your dog is crate-trained, that is okay too.
“Thank you Kathleen for taking such great care of Eddie! I know the booking was last minute and I appreciate your flexibility. I look forward to having you care for him again in the future.”
“Lenny was very warm and welcoming. She took good care of Oreo and kept me posted with daily activities with messages, pictures and videos. Oreo was very happy. Will definitely keep Oreo with Lenny again!”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish, and even tarantulas. I come from a family of animal lovers and I understand that every pet has their own personality. I have helped house sit and take care of my friends cats, dogs, and rats since I have been in Princeton, NJ also. I am a graduate student at Princeton University currently and since I set my own schedule on most days, I can be available frequently to give your pet some love and care. I have experience with crating dogs since I was a child. I am very comfortable with following all the rules you have set for your home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Princeton Junction
Macauley was absolutely the best! Our pet was so happy, comfortable, and well cared for with her. It was clear from the moment we met that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. We came back to a happy, relaxed, and well-loved pet, and that means everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their furry family member!
Kassidy was very caring and our pet Buddy loved his stay with her. She kept sharing Buddy's activities info and his photos with us periodically which was very calming for us. We will definitely use her services in future and recommend her to those who are looking for a safe home for their pets while going on vacation.

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.
