Dog Sitting Barrington

“Words can’t express how wonderful Liana was while watching my cat, Finnian, while we were away! Each update (and pictures) she provided truly showed how comfortable, safe, and happy my cat was with her. Liana is so kind and easy to communicate with, paid so much attention to what my cat liked (treats, toys, pets, etc). I felt totally at ease while away knowing he was SO well taken care of. I would love to utilize Liana again the next time we go away—she is wonderful!”

“Heath did an amazing job watching our pups! I have 3 dogs and one is a senior dog with mobility issues. All the dogs were happy and well taken care of. Heath was also very communicative, and punctual with all the drop in times. We will absolutely book him again for future persisting needs!”

“Audrey was wonderful with our dog! She helped us with drop-in visits and an overnight stay. Audrey was communicative, flexible, and our dog clearly felt very comfortable with her based on the meet and greet and photos we received while away. We will definitely reach out to Audrey again in the future!”

“Dan was excellent with Jack and Lulu! I was thankful for the pictures and he went above and beyond. I will definitely be using Dan again when I need some doggie help!”

About: I have been raising dogs with my family since middle school, starting with an Alaskan Malamute puppy that was only 30 days old when we first brought her home. I grew up alongside her and gradually took on full responsibility for her daily care. This experience helped me develop patience, attentiveness, a strong sense of responsibility, and a deep emotional bond with dogs. Now, after more than ten years of experience living with dogs, I treat every dog with the same care and affection as my own. Dogs tend to respond positively to me, and I genuinely enjoy building trust and companionship with them. Caring for dogs is not just something I do—it is something I am truly passionate about and committed to. At the moment, I primarily work remotely, and I spend most of my time with my wife. This allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I am able to provide pet care services at any time throughout the week, and I approach each task with full energy, attention, and genuine enthusiasm. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for every pet. During walks and outdoor activities, I carefully monitor the surrounding environment, making sure the area is safe and watching for any harmful objects or food that could pose a risk to the pet. I also pay close attention to interactions with unfamiliar dogs and other animals, ensuring that the experience remains positive and stress-free. I carefully observe each pet’s behavior, energy level, and overall condition, including monitoring their bathroom habits as an indicator of their health. I adjust exercise intensity based on the pet’s needs and make sure they cool down properly after more active play or walks. After high-energy activities, I provide water gradually and safely rather than allowing them to drink too quickly. I also provide detailed grooming care, including gentle brushing and checking for ticks or other concerns. If necessary, I will carefully remove ticks and make sure the pet remains comfortable. Beyond basic care, I enjoy spending time with pets through play, affection, and companionship. I treat every dog with the same patience, attention, and love that I would give to my own pet.

“Mikey was a great choice to watch our boy, Radar. They were able to watch him last minute, which we were so thankful for. Mikey was on time and communicated well regarding meals, playtimes and potty breaks, not to mention they were super kind. They even cleaned up a mess one of our cats had made even though they weren’t part of the gig. We recommend Mikey to anyone looking for pet sitting.”

“Nicole is very professional and trustworthy and did an amazing job with both of my dogs. I love the pictures that she had sent as well and the follow ups every time she came to visit. Both Dogs and I will look forward to using Nicole again- they were very happy when we returned!”

About: My love for dogs has led me to a rewarding part time career. In addition to boarding dogs occasionally through Rover, I also work for a company dog walking and pet sitting. My whole family loves dogs and are always excited to meet new fur friends! I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool my kids. In my spare time, I have been fostering puppies which has been very rewarding. Any dog in my care becomes part of the family. I have a large fenced in yard and an 11 yr old goldendoodle who loves every person and animal. This is a family home so I can only take in dogs that are friendly to children. We are very close to the dog park and enjoy many walks around the neighborhood.

“Our cats were well taken care of and happy when we returned. We would have Amanda watch the cats again and recommend her.”

About: Hi, I'm Ella! I'm a lifelong animal lover based in Rhode Island, and I genuinely believe pets are family. My background is in public service and childcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, patience, and creating a safe environment for the people (and pets!) who depend on me. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless games of fetch, snuggling on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I'm happy to adjust to their individual personality and needs. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I make communication a priority. I'll always provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels, and I'm comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household rules. When your pet is with me, they'll receive lots of attention, plenty of affection, and the same level of care I'd want for my own pet. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work full-time for the State of Rhode Island and work remotely on Mondays and Fridays. I'm also currently pursuing my Master's degree online through the University of Rhode Island, which gives me additional flexibility throughout the week. I'm happy to work with your pet's routine and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, or extra playtime, I'm committed to providing dependable and personalized care. I take the safety and comfort of both pets and their homes very seriously. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to be respectful of the space, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and keep everything clean, secure, and well cared for. I also have experience working as a Property Manager for Universal Services LLC, which has given me experience with maintaining properties, keeping spaces safe and clean, and being trusted with other people’s homes and belongings. I understand the importance of being responsible, reliable, and respectful when someone is trusting you with their home. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while also giving you peace of mind that your home is in good hands while you’re away.

“Tatiana was very communicative and I was confident our kitty was well cared for while we were away. Would definitely have her watch our kitty again!”

“We’ve had the pleasure of having Jean for drop in visits with our chihuahua for the past few months. So happy to have found her. These little dogs aren’t that easy but we feel very assured he is in good hands. Jean helps me navigate the rover app, is reliable and gets back to me promptly.”

“Lindsey was amazing with my senior dog. She did two drop-ins in one day and was always on time and communicated before arriving and after she left. She sent pictures of my dog and did a great job! Would definitely hire her again!!”

About: I have two years of professional dog walking experience, alongside pet sitting, overnight stays, and cat care. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I recently graduated from law school, and am currently working in pet care while applying for full-time positions. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available on weekdays for walks, drop in visits, pet sitting, and other care as needed! I always treat a client’s home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and favorite activities. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and comfort level and prioritize keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away.

About: I've always enjoyed being around animals. Our pets make up a large part of our lives, and I'm happy to care for your loved ones while you are unable to. I have a flexible schedule and I’m able to support with last-minute requests at all hours of the day. With my flexibility, I can ensure that your pet receives the best care. I keep several things in mind including the owner’s requests/preferences, the temperament of the dog, as well as ensuring that the dog remains comfortable at all times.

About: I’ve always has a passion for animals since I was a kid! I started pet sitting and dog walking for fun and it became something I loved doing!! It gave me a chance to love and take care of someone one else’s pets besides mine! Weekends, nights, and some weekly available I will have currently but hoping that I will have more availability come the winter! I will update as needed I will not be able to care for pets in my own home for the time being as I still have a puppy. Eventually down the road this is something I would try and be able to do! I am willing to stay in the clients home with a meet and greet prior!

About: I’ve cared for cats dogs since I was a kid and it’s always one of my favorite parts of the day to see how happy they get to see someone familiar and to go outside. I currently work full time, but I’m available in the morning before work, midday around 4pm, and in the evenings for walks or general care like feeding and putting to bed. I will adhere to whatever preferences communicated and will always be thoughtful and respectful of your space and mindful of the needs of your pet(s).

About: Hello, Nadine here. Looking forward to helping you and your pets needs. I am comfortable with all size dogs and look forward to meeting you soon. I am a dog mom, a full-time banker, and in my free time I enjoy long walks and everything and anything to do in nature. I am a proud owner of a miniature schnauzer, who is 15 years old. I am open to long walks, short walks. I understand work, life balance, and the stress of not getting home to our fur babies.

About: Detail-oriented, compassionate, and fun, I have cared for pets for over 12 years! From puppy-hood to senior years, I have cared for dogs throughout their lifespan using positive reinforcement training methods learned from working alongside talented trainers and fostering dogs through local rescues. I value each animal as an individual with their own thoughts, feelings, and preferences. I am a full-time pet sitter and dog walker and part-time student, so I am available for all of your pet's needs! From potty training your new pup, to a family vacation- I've got you covered. Each pet is treated with respect, compassion, and positive reinforcement only. Walks: Need to get some extra steps in? I encourage dogs to make safe choices on walks like choosing our direction or sniffing interesting spots to fulfill their instinctual needs. Dogs must be on harnesses for their safety and mine. I do not allow on-leash greetings. Drop-ins: Potty training or need to give your buddy their meds mid-day? I provide a potty break, play time, or any other enrichment your dog needs to keep their day as fun as when you're home. Housesitting: Going on vacation? I follow your schedule to keep your dog's day as stress-free as possible! Most visits include drop-ins and walks in addition to lots of nightly snuggles. Will adhere to structured crate time if requested. My own dogs, May and Fig, receive daily walks, off-leash time, and enrichment, in addition to frequent camping and overnight adventures. I have successfully crate-trained my dogs and the dogs that I have fostered through positive reinforcement.
