About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since I was a child. Each dog is the best dog and deserves the entire world. I will treat yours as if they are my own. They are precious and incredible creatures that we should cherish. I’ve fostered and cared for dogs from puppies to elderly dogs with significant health issues and loved them all. I work part time so I am flexible and happy to spend time with your creature friends whenever is convenient. Just let me know what times are best and we will work it out. I am happy to follow all house rules and care for your dog in whatever way you would like me to. Walks and playtime are always a joy.
“Claire was amazing. My cat was very happy well fed and taken care of. She always kept me updated with plenty of pictures. I was perfectly happy with her service. Great job. I tipped her in cash. Would use her again.”
About: I currently have 2 dogs that I’ve trained from puppies. I’ve pet sit for my brother for the last 5 years. A day hasn’t gone by in the last 10 years that I’m not out walking dogs. I’ve cared for senior dogs as well as puppies and love them all. I currently work 2-3 days a week with a rotating schedule but am available every morning and night as well as most weekends. My schedule is extremely flexible. I have a fenced in yard in a great neighborhood. Both my dogs are extremely friendly and always looking for another friend to play with.
“Phoebe was an amazing help for my puppy! She is dependable and sends lots of pictures. I love that she brought some new toys for our puppy to play with - just like my daughter used to do when babysitting! Phoebe was great at communicating and a really delightful person. She will be my first choice for future needs!”
“Randi did a great job watching our three cats - even our shy one came out to play with her! The kitties are all very happy after we've been gone, a testament to Randi's care. Would highly recommend working with her.”
About: I’ve had dogs for the majority of my life. Family and friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs. My husband and I have adopted 2 of our own little four-legged fur baby who rule the house! So clearly, we just pay the bills so they can continue living their best worry free life. I am a SAHM and my husband is home by 10am. While I am walking your fur baby my main focus would be your baby, making sure they got a really nice walk! We have a fenced in yard, live in front of a park with many fenced in areas, and have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company while your away. I maintain a clean household and welcome your fur baby any time!
About: I’ve had a pet my whole entire life from cats, dogs and more. My neighborhood is friendly and open for walks and fields for playing. I cherish animal love so much because they’re so innocent and cute. I love cuddling with them and running around in the backyard for fun. My siblings would love to have animals in my house everyday. Dogs are my absolute favorite and cats are just adorable !!♥️ I’m currently a stay at home mom with my 9 month old and my 2 siblings (7 & 10), who also LOVE animals (yes even the 9 month old..esp dogs). We can travel anywhere & they’ll be my little helpers throughout the week! I have a fenced in yard, leash’s, 2 amazing helpers who love animals just as much as i do! I’ve also taken care of animals all my life.
About: Hello. I’ve taken care of friends’ & family’s pets such as going on walks, watching over the weekend & drop-ins for potty breaks or walks. I am a nurse & feel comfortable administering medication as needed. I work from home & have the ability to be flexible with my schedule from day to day. I am also available on the weekends. I have 4 cats who all have plentiful cat trees, scratching posts, toys & hiding places. I do not own a dog but do help with drop-ins for potty breaks & walks as needed, for family & friends pets.
“Danielle always does a great job with our cats. She was able give them their medicine while we were away (one being an injection) & brings packages inside god us!! Thank you”
About: I use to work on Rover before the pandemic. I loved it, I love animals dogs especially.I have had pets my whole life. I have never met a dog that hasn’t liked me, i also am a reiki practitioner and am always willing to do some on a pet with obviously your consent. I love walking so why not walk some dogs in the process. I’m into fitness and getting into shape and what is the best way to do that then with a pet♥️ I love others pets like my own. I will hug them scratch them kiss them and cuddle them. My animals are spoiled and I plan on spoiling yours♥️
About: I’ve been providing dependable, loving pet care for 6+ years, and what sets me apart is the level of comfort, patience, and genuine attention I give every pet I watch. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away not just “watched.” I have experience caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels, including playful puppies, anxious pets, and senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and making sure every pet receives plenty of affection and companionship. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 I do work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, but pet care still fits very naturally into my routine and schedule. I make it a priority to return home directly after work to spend time with the pets in my care, and I typically only leave for necessities like work or grabbing food. I’m very routine oriented and make sure pets receive consistent attention, potty breaks, feeding, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day and evening. On weekends and outside of work hours, I’m home much more often and able to dedicate even more time to them. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. 🐾 I provide care exclusively in my client’s home because I believe pets are often the most comfortable in a familiar environment with their normal routine. Keeping pets in their own space helps reduce stress and allows them to feel safe, relaxed, and secure while their owners are away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions to ensure they receive the best care possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, so I treat every client’s home with respect and care while also making sure their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout my stay. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. 🐾
About: Hey there! I’m Hannah - animal lover, and your pet’s next best friend. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and truly believe life is better with fur and paws! I’ve raised puppies, cared for senior pets, and even looked after dogs who are blind or deaf — every animal is unique, and I love them all. Right now, I have two cats who keep me on my toes (and my lap), and I’ve had dogs of all sizes and personalities over the years. Whether your pet loves long walks, cozy naps, or belly rubs on repeat, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, loved, and totally spoiled while you’re away! Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I am a recent college graduate & I own my own business so I have a very flexible schedule! I am available for most holidays also, if not they will be blocked out! Creating a safe and fun environment while pet sitting is very important to me. I love being able to provide play time for cats or dogs while I am watching them. As well as cuddle time if they’re one that likes to curl up in your lap.
“Bre was wonderful with our two cats, Stella and Griffin! She graciously accepted a last-minute booking without hesitation and kept us at ease the entire time with prompt and thorough communication. The rover card cards were great with notes and photos to keep us updated for each day of or vacation!”
“Sherice is a very good sitter, I highly recommend!! She communicates very well with me about how my dogs are doing while she's there. Sherice let's me know if they used the bathroom, played, also if they are acting anxious,excited, or cuddley lol. Sherice is also very prompt, flexible with her & my schedule, & she does very well with my skiddish rescue pitbull. I will be having her drop in on my doggys again!!”
“Erin was so good with Faye! I felt very comfortable being away knowing she was coming by to take care of her. She was communicative and punctual. I would highly recommend hiring Erin to take care of your pets!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Trenton 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 Trenton 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 Trenton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
