“Having Susan care for my two cats while we were gone was a stress reliever. I knew from her professionalism (her incisive questions and the fact that she took notes during a meet and greet interview) that she was experienced as both a pet owner and a pet sitter. She sent us notes each day and provided photos that were both enlightening and enjoyable. I am impressed with Rover for having such professionals and Will certainly recommend the service AND Susan and will use her again.”

About: Hello, I'm Abigail! I've been caring for dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds for most of my life. As a animal lover, my experience is not only just dogs and cats. I have cared for a variety of pets, including farm animals, small animals and reptiles. I worked at a dog care facility for several years, where I gained experience as a Dog Daycare Attendant, Lodging (Overnight Boarding) Attendant, and Enrichment Attendant. Through these roles, I worked with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities. I've learned how to recognize and respond to different behaviors. Provide safe and structured care, and help pets feel comfortable and happy while their parents and or family are away from home! Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, enrichment activities, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm committed to providing compassionate, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐶🐱🐰🦎 I offer pet sitting services every day of the week, including weekends & holidays, giving you flexible and reliable care whenever you need it!! I also take advance booking:) I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you owners are informed. As well as feel confident & stress free before, during, and after bookings. I follow instructions exactly from feeding, training cues, crate rules, or medication schedules. I always keep emergency contacts and vet information easily accessible. I respect the client’s privacy and property at all times!! Watch closely for changes in behavior such as appetite, or energy. I can administer medications if needed (oral, topical, etc.). Always a priority to maintain a calm, stress free environment with plenty of affection and attention for your pets!!

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life dogs, cats, and other animals. They’ve always had a huge place in my heart, and I feel like I really connect with animals easily. I’ve pet sat for friends before and it’s always gone well. I’m confident I’ll get along well with your pets also. I’m flexible with schedules and comfortable handling different kinds of pet needs, whether that’s feeding routines, medication, or just extra cuddle time. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and will treat your pet like family, I’d love to help! Hi there, my name's Nick! I've got a ton of flexibility in my schedule right now, so I'm happy to work around whatever your pets need — whether that's a full weekend stay, an extended visit over several days, or just popping in during the week and then sticking around overnight on weekends. Basically, if your furry friend needs company, I can make it work. I've always grown up with animals, and I currently have a cat and a dog of my own, so I know what it takes to care for cats and dogs of all ages from playful young pups and kittens to more quiet older animals. Just let me know what your pet needs and what the visit will look like, and I should be able to make most things work!

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.

About: Hi! I'm Susanna, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets. While my full-time career has always been in customer service, animals have always been my true passion. I worked part-time at Monster Pets, where I learned about animal care and the importance of meeting each pet's individual needs. I also volunteered with the PSPCA, helping care for animals and giving them the attention, patience, and compassion they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or plenty of cuddles, I'll treat your furry family member like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands. I work full-time from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, but I'm available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. I have reliable transportation and am happy to travel. I'm committed to providing dependable, loving care and keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and routines. I take the time to build trust with every pet, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own.I also have two cats and cared for a rescued parakeet for over 10 years, so I understand the responsibility and love that goes into caring for animals.

About: I’ve take care of dogs since I was 10 years old. Feeding, bathing, walking, and loving! Friends and neighbors always reach out when they need to. I’m working full-time, but getting outside for walks or potty breaks is always important. My schedule is pretty flexible when I need it to be. I walk my dog about 3 times a day. We have structured walks and free time walks to ensure he is getting the most out of our walks.

About: What truly sets me apart is my professional background. As a special education teacher with seven years of experience in the classroom, patience, structure, and the ability to adapt to individual needs are woven into everything I do. I bring that exact same mindset to pet care. I understand that every animal learns and communicates differently, and I excel at reading body language and adjusting my approach to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and comfortable. ​Alongside having pets my entire life, I have spent the last 8 years providing dedicated pet care for family members and neighbors. Because of my teaching background, I am highly reliable when it comes to maintaining strict daily routines. This makes me particularly well-equipped to handle the unique needs of different life stages: ​Senior Care: I am incredibly patient and comfortable maintaining the slow, gentle pacing and strict medication or dietary schedules that senior pets often require to thrive in their golden years. ​Puppy Care & Training: I thrive on consistency and positive reinforcement. I am highly capable of maintaining the firm but gentle boundaries, frequent potty breaks, and structured play that young pets need while they are still learning their manners. ​Whether your pet needs quiet, gentle companionship or structured, engaging play, I have the experience, reliability, and heart to provide care that is perfectly tailored to them. I believe in complete transparency regarding my schedule so you know exactly when your pet is receiving my undivided attention: Summer Hours (Now – August): I am currently working a shorter schedule and am fully available for walks, drop-ins, and playtime every day after 1:30 PM. Fall Hours (Starting in September): I will be working my regular full-time schedule until 4:00 PM. However, my evenings will be completely open and dedicated to after-work walks, dinner routines, and evening companionship! I look forward to meeting your best friend and providing them with the highest level of care! I know firsthand that leaving your furry family members can be stressful. My goal is to provide a safe, engaging, and loving environment so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away. I treat every animal in my care with the exact same affection and attentiveness I give my own. My Experience I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, intuitive understanding of the daily care, patience, and affection animals require. For the past 8 years, I have been the trusted, go-to pet sitter for my neighbors and extended family. This hands-on experience has taught me how to adapt to different temperaments, respect established household rules, and quickly recognize when a pet might be feeling anxious. As a special education teacher, patience, compassion, and structure are at the core of who I am—and I bring those same qualities into how I care for your pets.

Ailiya was absolutely wonderful with my two kitties. She was communicative, fast at responding, caring, and gave great attention to detail.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Trenton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Trenton is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 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 3,852 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Trenton. 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 Trenton. On Rover:

  • 87% 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.

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.
