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.
About: My love for animals started early; I’ve been pet sitting since my first job at age 12. With over 20 years of experience (including 4 years on Rover), I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors and pups with special needs. I work from home, meaning your pet will receive undivided attention and be treated like a member of the family. My 5-year-old daughter is a fellow animal lover, and together with our docile Mini-Goldendoodle, "Pup Cake," we dedicate ourselves to making our houseguests feel at home. I understand that leaving your pet can be stressful for both of you. My goal is to eliminate that anxiety by providing frequent updates (videos, pictures, FaceTime- if preferred) for your peace of mind and abundant affection for your companion. Why choose us? Constant Supervision: I work remotely, ensuring your pet is never alone or unattended. Peace of Mind: I provide frequent photo/video updates (and even video chats!) so you can relax knowing your companion is safe and doted on. Additional skills: I have experience with oral medication administration. Training with puppies We will be available full time to care for your furry friend. We will treat your love as a member of our family from the time s/he arrives until the visit concludes! My daily activities have always revolved around the dog's/ cat’s schedule. I allow our guests to roam around freely, and they can relax on our furniture (if that’s something you allow). My 5-year-old will love playing with your companion, too; she’s been around animals since she was a baby, is respectful of any animal's needs. I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood. It's important to us that we follow your special instructions and will feed and walk when you specify. We offer love and diligent care!
“So kind and patient and loving to our almost 2 yr old dog. SavvyJ. Who had not been around a lot of dogs before. In fact SavvyJ looked like she wanted to stay. Highest recommendation possible”

We do daily walks, playtime, supervision all day long! We have dogs of our own as well! If you feel more comfortable having your dogs separate from ours, we have the ability to do so! i am able to administer medications, I have experience of all breeds from puppy-senior. I have a lot of experience with reactive dogs! I understand dog body language as I’ve been going to our trainer with our dogs for quite some time! As I work from home, I have 100% access/supervision to your pets while they are staying in their home away from home with me and my family! i care for your dogs like they’re my own! I always always always put my dogs needs before myself. I would treat yours the same way! I know how difficult it can be to find someone to give you peace of mind to watch your prized possession! I am extremely cautious when it comes to our dogs, so yours would be treated no different!
“Anely was responsive, communicative and just really great! Anely was able to meet all our needs (we weren't sure how Charlie would do with other dogs), and Charlie had a great time.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I love all dogs and would love to care for your pet! I understand that they are your family and will treat them like they’re mine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care for your family member. I can accommodate whatever schedule is needed to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and healthy. My yard is completely fenced in and I have a very safe neighborhood for walks as well as trails nearby. Safety is super important to me.
“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.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was little. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and been a proud dog momma and would love to care for your your fur baby. I even have experience caring for special needs animals. I currently own my own business so, my schedule is super flexible and I am able to accommodate last minute requests to take care of what ever your fur baby needs. I treat every animal with the love and compassion that they need and deserve! I have experience with special needs animals including those with long term health conditions and immobility.
“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.”
“Rich and his wife Sandra were amazing! Tanzy had so much fun with all of the other dogs and was very well taken care of! I was sent so many adorable photos throughout the day and would absolutely book Rich again! Thanks so much :)”
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your furry friend in someone else’s care, and I treat every pet like family with patience, love, and attention tailored to their unique needs. As a Shiba Inu owner, I know that every dog (and cat!) has their own personality, quirks, and comfort level. I have experience caring for energetic puppies, independent adult dogs, and gentle senior pets who may need a little extra time and care. Koda, our dog, is the sweetest, friendliest and most calm dog I know. He would welcome any visitor with open paws and play with them during the stay. I work from home, so pets get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule makes it easy to adjust to their routine, whether that’s feeding, exercise, or just keeping them company. At my home, pets enjoy a fenced yard, plenty of playtime, and the company of my friendly dog, Koda. In our home, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them happy and comfortable.

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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 622 sitters in Apponaug, 89% 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.
