“Keasha and her family took great care of Bagel! I was confident that my dog was in good hands. Will certainly come back to Keasha when I travel again. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Koda has such a great time with Briana! We did a meet & greet prior and I was extremely impressed with her knowledge as well as the training of her own personal dogs. She was very attentive and asked all the necessary questions. During the stay, she sent multiple photos every day to check in - which was very helpful as this was my pup’s first time away from home. Koda had a huge smile in every photo! Would absolutely recommend Briana to anyone who needs care for their dog while they’re away and we will be back!”
“Rhody always has a great time with Jessica and Abu. It's difficult leaving him as he gets older and Jessica is the only one we trust. She loves him like her own and takes such good care of him. Thanks to her we are able to travel knowing he's in the best hands. Always a 5 star experience!”
“We were very happy with Karen! She sent us daily updates on our dogs and pictures. She seemed to get to know our dogs right away and what their behavior was like. It’s was comforting to know she was paying such close attention to their needs. I would highly recommend Karen as a dog sitter”

“My dog libbie was spoiled at Leanne's house! Leanne took very good care of her and sent me pictures and updates. Leanne even gave me some helpful training tips to help teach libbie to stop pulling on walks!! I am working on it. I would definitely recommend Leanne for pet sitting and will definitely ask her again.”
“We boarded our dog with Kendra for over 2 weeks when we went out of the country. Kendra went above and beyond for our dog, she even taught her new tricks! We received multiple photos and videos daily and she administered our dog's monthly medication without needing a reminder. I highly recommend boarding your fur baby with Kendra!!”
“Sent me pictures of my puppy and kept me updated! Loved how she took my puppy for walks and let her run in the fenced in backyard. Will definitely use her again! She was friendly and communicated!”

About: I have grown up around and with dogs, have experience with many different sizes and breeds. I have experience and time taking care of every temperament. A general love and care for animals and pets. Your furry friend is my priority and fits with my availability and attention to ensure every party feels comfortable with the attention and love they receive I usually focus on care for dogs with making sure they are comfortable so if they need food, water, outside time or play, pets, or just a bathroom break, they will get it.
About: We are a married couple who both grew up in a home that always had dogs, and we don’t think a home is complete without a dog ! We have a Rhodesian ridgeback named Luca who loves to play with other dogs with naps and snacks in between. Hannah works from home so she is here all day to attend to them in between calls! Rory will support on an as needed basis. We look forward to meeting you and your dog and hope our home is like a home away from home for your pups! Requirements: Your dog needs to be potty trained Up to date on vaccines and flea/tick medications Good with other animals When booked: Please provide all food/snacks for your dog. If your dog requires a crate please bring your own as we don’t use any for our dog he sleeps with us in bed or lays on the couch with us. If they are allowed to do the same as Luca then we will happily all snuggle up ! Please bring a leash for your dog so we can take them for walks. Please tell us any specific instructions needed to care for your dog. Please provide us your veterinarian contact info incase of emergencies. Hannah works remote full time from home Monday -Friday ! Rory is home in the afternoon and evenings and will support on a as needed basis but Hannah will be the primary care taker to the pups! We are home on weekends unless we have a planned event. We have a fenced yard and a friendly dog named Luca who would love to have a playmate!! The cats keep to themselves but love our dog Luca just the same!
“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”
“What can I say? Maribel was AWESOME!!!! I left my dog for the first time and I was very nervous, especially since my Buddy goes everywhere with me. I work in a dog friendly office and he has been with me every day since he was a pup (now 2.5 years old.) Although Buddy, was very apprehensive at first, Maribel was very patient and found another one of her clients dogs to socialize with and to become comfortable. She sent lots of pictures and videos which made me feel really good that Buddy was happy. Buddy was so happy when I picked him up he jumped and kissed me and then he must have known we were leaving so he jumped up and kissed Maribel too. I have to say I was jealous because I wanted all his kissing and attention after 9 days however I was thrilled that Buddy loved her too!! I would highly recommend Maribel and I will definitely use her services again.”

Anely was fantastic with our 4.5 month old puppy. Anely is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and our pup was exhausted and happy when we picked her up. It was like summer camp! The kids loved seeing the pictures each day and I felt so relaxed knowing that our dog was so well cared for.
Karen was wonderful with our little shichon, Oscar. We felt very secure during our trip knowing that Oscar was in kind, knowledgeable hands. Communication was great, and Karen sent us pictures showing that our dog was comfortable and safe. One of the photos actually showed Oscar smiling! Unlike when we’ve boarded Oscar at a kennel, he didn’t have to “decompress” when we brought him home or act “strange” after his stay with Karen. He was his “regular self.” We definitely would book Karen again!
Julia was a wonderful sitter for my somewhat anxious 5 yr old dog, Ruby. Julia clearly has a great affection for all animals and is very attentive to them, making them feel comfortable & at very much at home. I feel very lucky to have found her & will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you SO MUCH, Julia!!! ☺️
If I could rate Jessica higher than a 5, I would! Prior to last week, we had never boarded Rylee before so we were nervous to say the least. Leaving Rylee in the care of someone else for a week while we were out of the country weighed heavily on our minds. Jessica not only alleviated those concerns but went above and beyond to ensure Rylee was adequately cared for. The updates, including photos, every day kept us at ease knowing that our girl was receiving the normal care. Not only that, but Rylee made two new friends - Apu and Mocha 🙂 I cannot recommend Jessica enough!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
88% of Cranston sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Cranston landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cranston 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 Cranston.
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.
You and your Cranston 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.
