About: I go the extra mile for the dogs in my care. I have over 12 years experience fostering dogs with special medical needs so giving medications or IV fluids is not an issue. I only feed holistic food and treats and purchase toys made in the USA. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I love to exercise and run so if your dog is active, I am the sitter for you. My own pets are very friendly to other dogs I can separate your dogs from my own. My cats and caged pets are kept away from the dogs so interaction is not an issue if your dog does not like them. I have had dogs and cats for over 40 years and have excellent references from adopters and current clients.

“Abigail was absolutely wonderful! She arrived exactly as discussed and immediately gave us peace of mind knowing our little guy was in great hands. I especially appreciated that she has experience with Chihuahuas and understands their little quirks and specific needs. She knew that Chihuahuas typically aren’t fans of the rain, so she actually planned ahead and made sure to come before the rain started so he could get his walk in comfortably. That level of thoughtfulness really stood out to us! She even went above and beyond by bringing in our Amazon packages that were delivered while we were away. It’s those little extra touches that make such a difference. Abigail is reliable, attentive, thoughtful, and clearly genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. We would absolutely recommend her and will happily use her again! 🐾❤️”

About: I’ve been a pet owner since 1985 and I’ve fostered over 70 cats and dogs over the past 20 years through an Animal Rescue Project that I continue to volunteer for. My home is designed for pets. No rugs and comfy furniture covered with pet hair. In my Florida home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a lovely dog friendly community to take long walks in. I specialize in seniors, special needs pets or pets on a medicine schedule. I love puppies too. Cats are also welcome in my home. Your dog or cat will be treated just like family. I’d also be happy to care for your pet in your home. I am a snow bird who spends my winters in South East Florida and Summers in my home state of New Jersey. I’m retired so your pets routine will be my priority. I have a fenced in yard and enjoy walking in the near by Abbott Marshlands. My home is pet friendly. My community is dog friendly with plenty of interesting walking opportunities. I am happy to sit for your pet in your home as well. My New Jersey home has a fenced in yard and a house that is designed to accommodate canine and feline guests.

About: I have 20 years of pet experience, from having my own animals since I was a little girl to volunteering and working at animal shelters for dogs and cats. I've seen a lot and learned a lot while working in animal shelters. I have also done a lot of pet sitting. I am experienced with diabetic animals; my one cat was diabetic and had heart disease. I would check his sugar levels and give him insulin along with his heart medication. I knew at a very young age that I wanted to work with animals. I am very compassionate towards them, and they are very drawn to me. I will always make sure your pet is safe and well taken care of while in my care.🐶❤️😻🐾 My schedule can be flexible to meet your pet's needs. Please contact me for more information at your convenience. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. My family and friends know how much I love animals. If someone they know needs a pet sitter or just someone to check on their cat or dog, they always recommend me. They know how compassionate I am towards animals and that they will be safe and treated like family in my care.

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner, and for over ten years, I’ve had the pleasure of working at various dog care facilities. I also have hands-on experience caring for a variety of other pets, including cats, lizards, and small rodents. Along with making sure your pets are well cared for and safe, I truly enjoy giving them plenty of affection and attention. My background includes raising and caring for dogs from newborn puppies onward. While my pet first aid and CPR certification has lapsed, I remain very knowledgeable in both areas. I have a strong understanding of different dog breeds, behaviors, and personalities, as well as care for cats and exotic pets. I’m happy to provide pet-sitting services and can share references if you’d like. While working at dog daycare facilities, I served as a shift supervisor, ensuring all dogs received excellent care from every staff member, including myself. As a supervisor, I was also trusted to administer medications (except injections) as needed. I am an online college student with excellent day-to-day flexibility. I bring my coursework with me, meaning your pets will have attentive, loving company for most of the day! - Open Availability: Most days of the week for full-time companionship. - Regular Commitments: Away every Wednesday from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. - In September, my regular commitment extends to Monday thru Wednesday for September ONLY! - Note: I don't drive, but I have a reliable, 24/7 family network for all pet transport and emergencies.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal, hands-on experience I have with a wide range of animals and my genuine passion for their well-being. I currently have two dogs of my own—one large and one small—so I understand how different each pet’s personality and needs can be. I’ve also owned and cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, reptiles, and small pets, giving me the confidence and knowledge to handle all kinds of situations. Unlike sitters who see this as just a side job, I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I’m reliable, patient, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable and supported. Balancing school and a job has taught me the importance of time management and responsibility—skills that I bring into my pet care routine every day. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I prioritize pet care because it’s something I genuinely love and am passionate about. Caring for animals is more than just a side job for me—it’s a rewarding part of my daily life, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, no matter how busy my schedule may be. What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal experience and deep understanding I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t just watch animals—I live with them every day. With two dogs of my own (one big, one small) and years of hands-on experience owning a variety of pets including cats, reptiles, birds, and small animals, I know how to handle all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I also keep open, honest communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My passion, reliability, and experience make me more than just a sitter—I’m someone you and your pets can truly trust.

About: Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a lifelong animal lover with two dogs, two cats, and a whole lot of heart for all furry (or feathered!) friends. I’ve worked with trap-neuter-release programs for stray cat colonies, have a bit of puppy training know-how, and I’m known for keeping pets happy, calm, and well-loved. One thing that sets me apart is that people have told me they really trust my judgment. I make sure to keep pet parents informed about how their furry family members are doing, so no one ever feels left in the dark. Whether it’s a new training triumph or just a little update on a cat’s favorite sunny nap spot, I’ve got you covered. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe and loved, and I’m here to be that calm and caring presence they need. I’d love to meet your pets and be their new best friend while you’re away! When it comes to scheduling, I’m as flexible as a cat stretching in a sunbeam. Right now, I’m in between full-time roles, which means I can be available pretty much any time you need—whether it’s weekdays, weekends, or those in-between moments. Just let me know what works for you, and I’ll do my best to be there for you and your furry crew! In my home, every pet is treated like part of the family. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment where your furry friend can feel at ease. I pay attention to each pet’s unique needs and personality, making sure they have their favorite cozy spots, plenty of playtime, and a watchful eye to keep them safe. Building trust is all about open communication. I’ll keep you in the loop with updates and make sure you know your pet is thriving. It’s all about creating a home-away-from-home feeling, where you can trust that your beloved companion is in good hands.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was roughly 7 years old. Currently have 5 of my own ranging from a Belgian Mal to a little ball of fur Shih Tzu. I’ve been lucky enough to train dogs for a living, with over 10 years of experience in the field. I will love your animals as if they were my own. Their safety, happiness, and fulfillment will always be my goal I do have completely open availability. I can provide everything from walks, drop ins, feeding, enrichment, and everything in between. For clients that prefer it, I am also happy to provide update pictures and videos. I have 14 years in pet care ranging from working at doggy day cares as well as individual training/ group class training. Whether your loved companion needs 10 minutes or multiple hours, I am more than happy to provide the service you need. I am currently training clients independently, so I am able to fit in pet sitting anytime due to my flexible schedule. It’s a great bonus of working for yourself. I have complete and open availability. Wether your companion requires 5 minutes, or 5 hours, I have the ability to accommodate happily. I only offer at the clients home. I just feel that it is best for the pet that they are not pulled into an environment they are unfamiliar with. Wether your dog needs enrichment, snuggle time, ball throwing sessions, walks, feeding, simple potty breaks, whatever your loved companion needs, I am able to provide happily.

About: I have 20+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. Sadly, I am very allergic to kitties, but I do love them. I have personal as well as professional pet sitting experience and have met so many wonderful and unique pets. I have experience in caring for puppies as well as geriatric dogs, including administering medication. My love for animals runs deep; I’ve been a vegetarian for 20 years now and truly believe every living creature deserves love and respect. You can rest easy knowing your pet is not only in competent, but caring hands. I’m currently a freelance editor, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available during the week as well as on weekends to care for your pets. I have plenty of experience walking dogs as well as caring for them in a fenced environment. I’ve also taken dogs from the home to a park nearby if there is no green space around your home.

About: I love animals and have had pets all my life. My experience in caring for animals includes most recently dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I currently have a dog and care for my son’s cat when he is out of town. My relationship with animals has always been amazing because I give them loving attention and ensure their needs are met. It will be my pleasure to have an opportunity to love and care for your pets I offer drop-in care, which means I can pop by your house during the day to check on your pets, handle feedings, and get them some exercise. While I'm not available for full-time house sitting or overnight stays, I build my drop-in visits completely around your pet's needs. I’m a big outdoors person, so when I come by, I love getting them outside for some fresh air, a good neighborhood walk, or a fun play session to burn off some energy. However, I’m just as happy spending quiet time indoors—ensuring your cats or other pets are fed, comfortable, attended to, and feeling secure while you're out." During my visits, I’ll happily spend time outside playing fetch in the backyard or taking your pets for a walk at a nearby park. When inside, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they’re into that!). Most importantly, I stick strictly to your preferred feeding times and house rules, ensuring your pet is happy, fed, and safe before I head out.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Trenton is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $36 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 8,167 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Trenton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Trenton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Trenton after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Trenton. On Rover:

  • 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers 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 walker.
