“Mellony was a perfect cat sitter for our cats while we were away for a week. She took great care of our two cats by feeding them, cleaning up after them, and making sure everything was in order. We originally book one 30-minute visit per day, but Mellony generously offered to come twice a day for 15 minutes each visit so that both cats would get extra attention-without changing any additional fee. We truly appreciate her kindness and dedication. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cats were in such caring and reliable hands. I highly recommend Mellony and would definitely give her 5stat rating for her outstanding service! Thank you Mellony!!”
“We hired Alex at the last-minute and we couldn't be more happy with the person we found and the care our pets received. She was prompt, thorough, and - most importantly - loving with our animals.”
“My wife and I are very happy to recommend Ashley L for her wonderful job looking after our pets. She was timely and efficient in providing our diabetic cat with his twice a day insulin injections. Our decision to hire her for looking after our pets allowed for us to have a long weekend away worry free! Thank you Ashley!”
“Lindsey S. did a great job looking after our 13-year-old kitty for two weeks. From the pictures she sent, it looks like Louie was having a great time with her. We'll schedule Lindsey for our next trip soon!”
“Abigail is an amazing kitty sitter! She really went above and beyond to make my shy cat comfortable. I came back to a clean house and happy cats. Will definitely hire again!”
“Julie was lovely! She sent adorable photos everyday along with a nice message about how Momo was doing throughout our trip. This was my first time leaving my pet with a stranger and she made the whole experience so easy and wonderful. I will 100% be rebooking with her!”
“Erik was such a kind and caring dog sitter. He was very punctual and communicative throughout the whole time I was out of town. He even walked my dog both days despite it being optional. Hachi was in such great hands and I would rebook him again in an instant.”
“Carly treats my dog as she would her own. She’s patient toward my shy pup and puts in extra effort to make her comfortable. I feel very assured Layla is in great hands when I’m working and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Rebecca did a great job with my kiddos. Even though they have many quirks and require a lot of time , she took her time make sure that everyone was taken care of. I would hire her again.”
“Sabrina is kind, calm, and gentle. We have 2 pets that are shy and skittish around new people, but Sabrina was able to get them to come around and feel comfortable. We'll definitely ask Sabrina to take care of our fur babies again!”
“Brady did an excellent job caring for our pets while we were away. I was a little nervous leaving them since we recently moved and our German Shepherd Dog recently tore her CCL and this was their first visits with Brady. We had nothing to be concerned about though as Brady was so attentive and careful. She kept us in the loop with detailed reports, lots of photos and spent extra time giving love and attention to both our dog and our cat. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Amia is a very professional cat sitter. She provided all affection , love and care to our Simba cat during the visits. I received all updates regularly. I will definitely go ahead with her upcoming visits.”
About: I have been trusted to take care of multiple dogs over the past several years, as I am the go-to contact for family and friends! I also owned a dog for 12 years myself. I work full time, but I am available before or after my job or in between meetings when I WFH! My WFH days may change occasionally. I am very thorough with any feeding, walking or house instructions. I will make sure your pet is satisfied and loves me before I leave!
“Bri was wonderful! She came to meet the pups and was so sweet. When visiting, she was thorough in the care for the dogs, communicative with needs and any questions, and overall incredibly positive! My puppy had an accident and Bri immediately cleaned it and pup up. I could tell from the videos she sent the dogs were happy and comfortable with her, which is the most important thing! Would absolutely recommend Bri.”
“This was our first time having a dog visit through Rover and lucky to find Linda. Linda is so sweet and so caring to our Luna. Luna just loved her! Plus Linda was so nice to Simba our tabby cat that showed his appearance on the visit. Thank you Linda and Rover for great services! Now we don’t have worry if Luna is ok when we can’t be there. We have peace of mind and looking forward to next visit.”
“Karren did a wonderful job caring for our senior dog Daisy while we were away. She sent us photos and detailed reports after every visit, which were so wonderful to receive. In addition to feeding and watering and letting Daisy out for pees and poops, Karren administered Daisy's medication, cleaned up a mess, and brought in our packages. We will most definitely use her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Trenton
Julie was outstanding! She is so friendly and calm, and was very professional at every stage. I felt completely comfortable leaving her in charge of my six cats. I left a lot of instructions and they were followed perfectly. I even got a nice report every day, including pictures of each fur ball. We're not used to getting updates when we have a pet sitter, so that was a nice touch. All of the cats seemed happy and relaxed when we got home, and the house was locked up tight and looked exactly how we left it. If Julie is ever willing to watch six cats (and clean six litter boxes!) again, we would feel very lucky to have her help. Thank you so much again, Julie!
Ailiya was absolutely wonderful with my two kitties. She was communicative, fast at responding, caring, and gave great attention to detail. I found her to be very trustworthy and my two cats were happy and well cared for in my absence. They probably want her back for all the love and extra treats they got!
Lesly was fantastic! She was always prompt, reliable, and very communicative, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our two dogs absolutely loved her and quickly looked forward to their twice-daily walks. We appreciated the updates and could tell our pups were happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Lesly to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
James was great during drop-in visits with our two cats! His rover cards were very thorough, and he was easy to communicate with. Even our cat who is shy around strangers felt comfortable and wanted pets from him by the end of his time caring for them. I will definitely rebook with him in the future!
Linda was great! She always takes great care of our diabetic cat. We had to change his insulin this time, and Linda didn't hesitate to stop by to learn the new injector. She sends the best photos and always makes me feel more comfortable leaving for an extended trip knowing that he is in good hands!
Rhonda has been absolutely fantastic! She kept me informed and sent pictures through the 2 weeks. She was clearly invested in making sure both my pups were eating, getting snuggle time and the different levels of exercise they each require. If you are looking for a temporary dog mom to replace you - Rhonda is GOLD! We are truly grateful for her frequent communication, her ability to roll with any ‘hiccups’ (dog knocks over everything in the bay window;), and just genuinely get to know their personalities and cater to them. We cannot recommend Rhonda highly enough!
Bri is such a great pet sitter, I feel so lucky we found her in our area. She is communicative, kind, fun, and super thoughtful when it comes to your furry friends. She brings a positive attitude to her visits and genuinely cares about the pets she works with. Her updates are thorough and timely and I have no complaints! We will continue to book with Bri.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Trenton on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,305 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Trenton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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.
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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
