“Anely was great at communicating and very welcoming to Levi from the moment she met him. She kept me updated on how he was adjusting and Levi seemed to enjoy every moment he spent with her. I will definitely reach back out for future pet sitting.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our dog, Pippa, than Tara! She watched Pippa for 10 days and treated her like part of the family. Tara was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals — Pippa absolutely adored her. We got regular updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Pippa was. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. Tara went above and beyond in every way — we came home to a happy dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Everything was great with our dog’s stay with Paige. She sent photos and updates and she even was dealing with a storm and power outages throughout - will certainly book with her again.”
“Stephanie took great care of our two mini schnauzers for a weekend stay this summer. They are high-energy dogs and she provided them with plenty of outdoor exercise including walks and trips to the beach. I could tell by the many photos she sent us that they were very happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Stephanie and hope to use her again in the future. A+++!!”
“Mary is great! Both of our girls love going to her house. She also is very caring of the animals she takes care of. If something is wrong she is awesome at communicating. We have already booked with Mary two different times. She is definitely someone I would recommend and someone we will be using again! Thank you so much Mary!”
“Cherylee took such great care of my young cat. She had awesome toys for him, kept him entertained and sent me photos and videos. I felt really good about leaving him in her care. I was nervous and worried about leaving him for the first time but all went purrfectly! I will definitely use Cherylee and Steven again!”
“Ty housed my cat for 3 weeks and she was fantastic. She sent daily updates/photos on his behavior, eating, etc. I was able to enjoy my vacation stress free knowing my cat was in good hands. I will definitely be requesting her for the future.”
“Anne has been amazing! This was our second time having Piko stay with her, and we couldn’t be happier. She sends us pictures and updates every day, which gives us so much peace of mind. She’s also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and is incredibly sweet and accommodating. Most importantly, Piko absolutely is comfortable staying with her! I completely trust Anne with Piko and feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”
“Nadine has such a soothing and calming energy that she’d make the most anxious dog feel at ease! She took such great care of Sweet Pea and was so in tune with her quirks. I would have Pea stay with her any time without a single worry!”
“Caley had a rough start to the week. She's getting older, and requires more attention. Celina kept us in the loop, but we thought we might have to come home. We and Celina came up with a plan that allowed us to stay on vacation, and Celina handled Caley like a pro! We appreciate that so much! Sorry for the sleepless nights.”
“Keasha is wonderful! I've have 2 sitters I use with the Rover app and Keasha is one of them. She has this wonderful calmness and welcoming personality. I have used her time and time again because she is phenomenal. She often updates me on how my dog is doing and send me pictures. Which is great when you're away and you know your dog is in the best of care. I have used Keasha with my previous dog Russell who was a senior dog and now again with my newly adopted dog Scooby. She's the best!!”
“Armitage took great care of my 2 dogs for a week. We got photos everyday and plenty of updates that they were doing well. Armitage also washed our dog’s beds before we picked them up, which was not expected! I felt very confident they were in good hands while we were away!”
“Guss had a great time with Devorat, who sent us a number of great videos and photos of Guss having a good time with other friendly dogs in her backyard. Would happily go back!”

About: I am a high school teacher, my husband works at a local university, and we have a 9 year old son who attends school in Barrington, RI. Our family adores pets (we own 1 dog and 2 cats, all friendly rescue animals) and we are flexible on the weekends or after school for pet care/walks in our lovely town. Our friendly dog would love to play with yours in our fenced in yard! I currently work full time as a teacher so I most often have availability on weekends or school breaks (including summer). If local, I might be able to support with pet care after school during the week as well. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly rescue dog (golden retriever mix). We have two cats who roam the house freely during the day, however we also have a separate space for them in our house. We live in a beautiful town with many trails for dog walks close-by. We love doing beach walks with our dog (his favorite!).
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Barrington is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Barrington
Anne was great at sending me photos and updates on Maizie's stay for the better part of 3 weeks, gave her ear drops and allergy chews daily and was also very accommodating about the possibility that my trip could be canceled. From the look of the photos, Maizie made new friends with Anne's dogs and had a great time! I'm glad to find someone I trust to care for her if I'm away and would highly recommend her.

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.
90% of sitters in Barrington 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 Barrington 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 Barrington.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Barrington 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 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.
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.
