About: I’ve worked in the human health care even though I have always had a passion for animal care. I am now a stay at home mom so I’ll be home with your dog always unless I have an errand to run! I have owned multiple pets of my own for the last 14 years. My dad’s dog was blind and had diabetes (administering insulin) so I have experience in extra care for animals. I recently lost both my dogs due to cancer and seizures so I’d love to have some dog company. Also please know If your pup is good with kids, we have a 2 year old at home. I will use my passion for animals and integrity to care for your pet(s)! You can trust me with your fur babies.❤️ I am currently a stay at home mom so I’ll always be home with your pup/ dog unless I have to run a quick errand. I have many years in experience in handling big and small size dogs as well as all energy types. I also have a fenced in yard.
“This was our first time using a pet sitter on Rover.com — The whole experience was seamless. Briana was extremely professional — kept in touch throughout the day, sent us photos, and had our pooch ready as soon I arrived to pick him up. We will definitely be scheduling more visits soon! Thank you so much Briana!”
“Jacqueline takes great care of my dog and he absolutely loves going to hang out at her house!! I feel very comfortable leaving him with her all day and know he's being well taken care of and getting lots of love!”
“Victoria graciously responded immediately to our last minute request. She was friendly, accommodating, and a great communicator. We will absolutely use her again to provide care for our little man.”
“This is a review from a repeating costumer… I am very happy with Anely. I trust leaving my pup Nico with her for daycare. My pup comes home tired and happy after a day under her care.”
“Keasha was great! She watched my 4 month old puppy for the day and he had a great time. He is a little shy and she really helped him gain more confidence. He came home exhausted after a fun day of walks, playing outside, and cuddles.”
“Jean was wonderful with Remi and provided such clear and helpful communication and updates. Remi can be an anxious dog, but Jean helped him calm down and took great care of him! We will definitely reach out to Jean again if we’re ever in the area.”
“I’m very grateful to Hanna & Roy.✨ Besides being such lovely people, I truly appreciate them for taking care of my puppy🐶 From the very first moment, they showed so much love and dedication. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Haru’s well-being: they gave him affection, were attentive to him at all times, and played with him a lot. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good.”
“Our dog had an amazing time with Danielle and we couldn’t be more pleased. Danielle is communicative, attentive, and incredibly accommodating to our dog, who requires a bit more patience and understanding than most. It’s a huge relief knowing our dog is in such good hands when we’re busy. We highly recommend Danielle and will definitely book with her again.”
“Debby was AWESOME! My puppy was in such good hands. She’s very loving, attentive, responsive, friendly, had a lot of experience with dogs, keeps you updated with pictures, and overall genuine. My puppy had such a fun time at her place! Will definitely be booking again :)”
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the genuine connection I build with every dog I care for. I treat your pup like family—offering not just basic care, but personalized attention, enrichment, and affection tailored to their unique personality and needs. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or quiet cuddle sessions, I create a safe, loving environment where your dog feels truly at home. With a keen eye for detail and a deep passion for animals, I go the extra mile to ensure both pets and their owners feel confident, comfortable, and cared for. My daily/weekly routine typically revolves around my own pets and what is on the schedule for that day. So be reassured that I would do the same while caring for your pets as well. I work alongside my girlfriend who works from home therefore, your fur babies will always be cared for and attended to through out the whole day. In My Home: When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where routines are respected and comfort is a priority. I provide plenty of playtime, walks, and affection throughout the day, as well as a cozy spot for rest. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs—whether they prefer lots of activity or quiet companionship. Safety is always top priority, with secure spaces and close supervision. In Your Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I do everything I can to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walk times, medication (if needed), and favorite activities. I keep your home tidy and secure while you’re away, and I always provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.

I had an amazing experience with our sitter! They were incredibly communicative—giving me updates on Apollo every couple of hours, which really put my mind at ease. They went above and beyond by sending lots of photos, so I could see how happy and well cared for Apollo was. I feel completely confident and happy to book with them again. Truly a fantastic sitter!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Apponaug commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 RI 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 623 sitters in Apponaug, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
