“Jennifer was so sweet, caring, and accommodating to our pup. I loved getting pictures and messages throughout his stay, which really put my mind at ease. I truly appreciate her taking in a puppy and being so flexible with our schedule tweaks. We'll definitely book again.”
“As always excellent care by Karen and the family. Helped us last minute for an extended stay and per usual great communication and daily updates always knowing our boys were happy and well loved.”
“Kirsten was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and Kirsten made me feel so at ease. Her home was lovely and dog friendly and I know our dog was well taken care of. Her daily messages and pictures made me feel in touch with what was going on with our dog. Thank you, Kirsten! We will definitely look you up again when we need another dog sitter.”
“We absolutely loved having Darcie and her family watch Oliver! We got updates every day with several pictures or even a video, which made being away from him so much easier. It was clear from the moment we dropped him off that Oliver was being treated like part of the family, and he came home happy and well-loved. We are honestly obsessed with Darcie and her family and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely be using Darcie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love their dog like their own!”
“Carman was a delight and we felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. She sent pictures and took them outside to play and they seemed very comfortable and at ease when we picked them up. Carman stayed up late for us to pick them up at 11pm which we also greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Carman, and will definitely ask her to take care of our pups in the future.”
“Our Bichon, Zola, stayed with Cindy over the 4th of July weekend. Cindy listened well to our pups' anxiety issues with fireworks and Zola did great in her home! Great communication and flexibility as well. Appreciated the meet and greet prior to boarding.”
“Tracy is absolutely wonderful. She provided such loving care for our dog Winnie, giving her true one-on-one attention, lots of pets and walks. We’ve already booked our next extended stay with Tracy in a few months - cannot recommend her enough!”
“Jenny and her husband watched our 9MO old French Bulldog puppy over a weekend recently. They are a super nice couple, with a dog of their own- Zoe. They provided my boy Floyd with a lot of love over the weekend. They sent me several pictures of him having a fun time (even one pic of him staring at a bowl of ice cream)! I would definitely recommend Jenny to care for your babies. Thank you!”
“Michelle, Mathew & their kids took such good care of our dogs while we were gone! We got lots of pictures of them being loved and snuggled and felt so at ease being away from them! They treated them like family! We couldn’t ask for anything more!”
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up with both dogs and horses, and our animals were always treated as part of the family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet while you’re away. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, gentler pace. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. At home, I have two Australian Cattle Dogs, Sydney (4) and Roo (2), both rescues. They’re active, social, and always happy to welcome new companions. Before them, I raised my dog Cooper from 7 weeks old through 14 wonderful years. I also regularly provide in-home dog sitting for friends and family, with stays ranging from a few days to several weeks. I work from home which provides me plenty of time to keep an eye on your pup and let them out for potty breaks. I also try to work in some play time during the day where I can. My dogs insist the ball is thrown for them a lot! I feed my my own dogs around 6:30/7am and 3:30/4pm daily. I have a nice big yard with a privacy fence and 2 well socialized, friendly and playful dogs. I have good size kitchen and living room areas that can be gated off the pups need some quiet time to themselves.
“Hollie was AMAZING! My girlfriend and I have a 60 lb lab mix who's only ever been comfortable in the care of my parents or really close friends. He has a bit of separation anxiety and takes a while to get used to new surroundings. He also takes medication and can be a handful when it comes to taking walks. We tried him previously at a boarding service, but they never gave us any updates. So we were rightfully worried while we were away. When we picked him up from said service, he looked distraught/anxious. When we asked how he was, they just said he was sweet without any details of his stay or any off behaviors. The service also didn't use the portioned food we brought and forgot to pack his meds in the care bag we provided. We left our little guy with Hollie for 6 nights, and there was a world of difference. Firstly, Hollie was generous enough to host a meet and greet so our dog could get comfortable with her and her home. Hollie was very accommodating to our requests and quickly helped our guy settle in. She was super consistent with updates and went out of her way to make the entire experience wonderful for both us and our dog. Hollie really cares and will go that extra mile for any furry friend under her supervision. We'll gladly seek out Hollie again for boarding and can't begin to recommend her enough!!”
“Dana, her husband and their sweet dog Teddy were wonderful with Mia! They took such great care of her. They send updates and pictures and I could tell that my dog was having a great time playing with her new friend Teddy!”
“They were amazing and took my dog last minute when my other sitter outside of Rover fell through!! My dog loved their kids! I was that obnoxious owner who was anxious about leaving my pup and Dalton obliged by sending me texts with pic updates. I am so incredibly thankful for Dalton and his family!!! ????”
“Carrie and her family were amazing. I felt at ease leaving my dog with them for my vacation and knew he was in good hands. They worked with his schedule and needs and based on the pictures they sent me while gone he seemed to be having a great time. They gave him a lot of attention and played with him and overall were very thoughtful. I would recommend.”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life! I treat my dog as my child and he loves playmates. I have been a foster with Cocos Heart Dog Rescue for over four years, where I have provided a home for shy, breeder release dogs, and within days, we have become best friends. I am a go to for watching my friends and neighbors dogs. I love everything from play time with young puppies, and the sweet cuddles with senior dogs. I work fully remote, so pets get frequent attention, play time, and walks. My dog gets fed once in the morning and one at night, but I am flexible with feeding schedules and keep dogs separate during feeding time. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I strive to create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where every dog can feel at home. I understand that being in a new space can feel overwhelming, so I always give new dogs plenty of time to sniff, explore, and get comfortable at their own pace without feeling rushed. I have a friendly, confident dog of my own, and I take introductions seriously. When a new dog arrives, I keep my dog in a separate area so the new pup can explore and settle in independently before they meet. I believe in slow, supervised introductions and always pay attention to each dog’s body language and comfort level. I also take precautions to keep my home pet-friendly, prevent access to potential hazards, and ensure dogs have their own space to relax. I want every pup in my care to feel safe, loved, and right at home, with plenty of attention, patience, and affection.
“So happy we found Mika and Andrew, and we so appreciate the daily updates! That really put us at ease while we were on vacation. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 386 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Trenton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Trenton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Trenton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Trenton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Trenton. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
You and your Trenton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
