“Was a great person to have checking on my cat while I was gone. She gave daily updates along with photos. Always played for a bit and made sure her litter box and food was replenished. Will definitely recruit Gabrielle again when I leave town.”
“Lindsey was INCREDIBLE. She looked after our two (very finicky) cats for two weeks and was absolutely perfect. Not only did she send consistent updates and photos, she played with the kitties, changed their water and litter, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and healthy. I truly felt at ease with Lindsey caring for our pets. I would recommend her one thousand percent!!”
About: I can train puppies to sit, stay, potty train also. I have always been an animal lover and get along great with any type of dog. Your dogs will have access to my backyard at all times. I am available from 8am-10pm at my house with drop offs. If you need an overnight watch I need at 48 hr notice ahead of time. I provide walks and can help train them with harnesses or just a leash. I am close to a nature trail for great walks and nice dog accepted parks. I can do dogs nails, bathing and brushing as far as grooming goes. If you have any special request not listed I am flexible. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members. Thanks!
About: *Accepting New Clients for Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits. Message me to schedule 😊 Mondays & Tuesdays; most availability! 🐕🐾🏃🏼♀️ Hi, my name is Audrey. I love animals and taking care of dogs of all breeds. Also, experience caring for horses/stable cleaning. 🐴 I was previously fostering/training a PAWS With a Cause Puppy for a year, to be a future service dog. Now I have my own puppy; a sweet & active Goldendoodle. I have over 10 years experience in Pet/House Sitting; caring for various animals from horses, dogs, cats, fish. I am also happy to assist with taking in mail, water plants, etc. to maintain house services while out of town. I have always loved taking care of animals. I grew up helping taking care of our family pets and in adulthood I got my own dog, Golden Retriever named Lola. My Golden was a certified therapy dog, visited people in the nursing home. I am grateful for all the animals I've had the opportunity to take care of over the years and accepting new clients. Also, I like to get to know your dog; their routine and any health concerns they may have. I look forward to hearing from you! -Audrey I am currently working part-time, so I can give your pet lots of attention. Message me for more details, as my schedule is flexible. Thanks! I have a fenced in yard. I offer your pet to stay at my house, if they get along with my puppy. Feel free to message me for more details.
About: Ive been houses sitting and caring for cats and dogs since I was sixteen. Ive done up to a week in home stays. These visits often include walks, outside trips, playing, and all basic care with your animal. I never push an animals boundaries and take my time to understand them. Currently, I have my own two special needs cats that require daily medication and shots. I am well versed in that type of care. Hello! I work a set schedule of 9 to 5 but often have 4 days at a time off in a row. Im a college student working to pay off my debt as soon as possible, so I work hard in my off hours. When working with your animal, I will keep an eye on them at all times while they go out. Often going with them if it doesn't distract them. I habe no problem following set rules that will help your animal feel more comfortable. I can help to cage your animals when needed and stretch their legs if they need.
“Absolutely the best sitter Smokey has ever had. Reguarly brushed him, provided fun notes on most days about how he was doing, and performed little bits of going the extra mile each day. I couldn't recommend Saramae enough! I'm very thankful.”
About: I grew up many breeds and sizes of dogs around all ages taking care of all of them. Animals always love me and I always love them! I’m currently in draft school so I am available to take dogs out every 4 hrs between 7:30-2 and after that I’m available for walk and anything else! I will always be there for your fur babies. I will show them love and care while also completely their needs like walking feeding and anything else needed :)
About: I've had dogs all my life. We just just put our dog down after 12 years from being raised as a puppy. We recently just got a beagle Basset Puppy who loves to play and has gotten along great with all of the dogs we've watched so far! I am looking forward to a summer filled with backyard play and plenty of attention for our guest pups. Since we’ll be home the vast majority of the time, your dog will have constant companionship. I’m happy to send you pictures, daily updates, whatever you need! While we might head out for the occasional short day trip or camp drop-off, our schedule is primarily centered around being home, making us very flexible for drop-offs, pick-ups, and mid-day belly rubs! Your pup’s safety is our top priority! We have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under constant supervision. Our home is a family environment with three kids who are taught to be gentle and respectful with animals, so we do require that any guest dogs be kid-friendly. Inside, we have stairs, so please let us know if your pup has any mobility issues or needs assistance. We are also happy to crate your dog for meals or naps if that is what they are used to at home. Since we currently have no other pets, your dog will receive 100% of our attention and love during their stay
About: Open home with no children or other animals. All sizes of cats and dogs welcome! I hope your baby likes fun and affection because this is the place for it! I've had pets most of my life, and enjoy having happy wagging tails and purrs of contentment nearby. Pet families welcome too! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, providing a meaningful way to blend responsibility with care. Each visit is thoughtfully scheduled to ensure consistency, creating a sense of comfort and safety for the pets. I prioritize secure environments, always double-checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions to protect their wellbeing. My growing knowledge of animal behavior helps me recognize what each pet needs, whether it’s a calming walk, playtime, or quiet companionship. This attentiveness brings peace of mind to pet owners and happiness to the animals, making pet sitting not just a task, but a fulfilling and trusted part of my week. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I prioritize trust and respect in every action I take. I understand that I’m being welcomed into a personal space, and I treat it with the same care and consideration I would expect in return. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to house rules, to ensure the pet remains comfortable and routines are maintained. I respect the home by keeping it clean and secure, and I always communicate openly with the owners, providing updates for peace of mind. Above all, I build trust by being reliable, thoughtful, and fully focused on the wellbeing of both the pet and the home.
About: I have loved taking care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I come from a household that taught me a lot of responsibility through taking care of our pets, so I understand the anxiety and trouble of trying to get an extra hand with your furry friends. I’m patient, understanding, and would love to extend the help. I’m currently working remote, which can leave me with a pretty open schedule some days. My availability varies but it is flexible and easy to work around with enough time in advance. I live with 2 dogs that don’t get along with other animals, so pet care at my home is not an option; however, walks and park trips are!
About: Hi! My name is Ava, and I’m so excited to be joining Rover! I am currently a college student studying early childhood education, and am so grateful to have this opportunity to further support my education! I have always had animals in the house growing up, and have personally helped to raise three dogs and two cats! I have experience taking care of senior animals, as well as administering oral medication! I genuinely enjoy taking care of and loving animals, and am looking forward to meeting yours. Thank you so much for considering me! I am currently a full-time student and have a part-time job, but I am fully available on the weekends, as well as nights on week days! I will take care of your pets as if they are my own! I feel that the most important part of pet-sitting is showing them that you care, and that they are not alone! To combat this, I will give them all lots of attention, and make sure to follow any schedules that the pet-parents set out for me!
About: I've owned animals ever since I could remember. When I was a baby we had a cat named Pookie Bear. Around the time I turned 5 my parents bought me a dog I named Pumpkin. Around 7 years ago Pookie Bear unfortunatly passed away, but knowing we needed a cat we bought 4 more! Void, Cuddles, Peeper and Ci-Ci. Then in 2019 Pumpkin had to be put down, but I couldnt live without a dog, so that summer I went and bought a German Shepherd puppy that I named Gizmo. Gizmo is now 3 years old and I couldnt imagine life without him. He is truly part of the family now. I travel for work on some weekends but am mostly always free. I will make sure to always have my calendar updated to show when I wont be availible. If I am checking up on your animal I will make sure to follow all directions given and also give the animal the best care that it needs!

I’d love to chat about your pets individual needs to adapt and care for them the best way possible. When I come to run, play, walk or lounge with you pet my time with be spent loving them and making sure they’re comfortable with you’re away. Im also comfortable with taking them to dog parks. I’m a pet parent myself so my day starts and ends with my pup! I’m typically free from 9am-2:30pm before heading to work to walk, run, play or lounge with your pet. Mondays and Tuesdays I have a completely free schedule to work around for your needs. Wed-Sunday I’m free from 9am-2:30pm before heading to work to walk, run, play or lounge with your pet. I am off work between 9-10 (depends on the day) and can come back to continue care. Respecting both your home and your pets boundaries is a huge priority for me. Whatever makes your pet feel comfortable in my care comes first. I’d love to chat about what your daily routine looks like with your pet to make sure they’re best cared for
“Minion warmed up to Brooke the first day. Just amazing! She's very knowledgeable. Very polite, exceptional on sending pics and keeping you updated day by day. I would highly recommend Brooke to anyone, I'm sending the cat on a vacation next time so Brooke can look in on me from day to day, lol! Thank you very much. Rover for having professional people and people you can trust in your home would highly recommend Rover also”
“Briana saved me last minute! She was able to help me with Georgia and she did it with the best attitude. She was so kind, nice, and kept me updated on Georgia. She sent me pics, which I truly appreciate it. It was just so easy to talk to Briana, she really cared about Georgia. Definitely recommend her!!!!”
About: I have always had a love for dogs. From a young age I was responsible for taking care of my family's dog Sasha. Sasha was a very hyper miniature schnauzer mixed with a jack russell terror. I am currently a undergraduate college student and cannot afford to have a dog at this time but I would love to have my own. I provide dog sitting services in your home. I can perform baths and facilitate playtime and exercise. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own. Throughout this job I can enjoy dogs that will bond with me as well as gain experience. I would love the opportunity to care for and connect with your furry friend when you're away!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Trenton
She did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away on vacation. She was reliable, communicated well, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.
Gabrielle did a wonderful job taking care of our cats! One of them does not warm up easily to people but within a few days, I got videos of her going right up to Gabrielle for pets which tells me everything I need to know. We will absolutely be using her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Trenton is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 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 3,297 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Trenton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Trenton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
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.
