“Diana did a great job with my puppy! I’m so thankful to have found her when I did to care for my puppy while I was on a work trip. Highly recommend booking if you’re looking for a sitter that’s responsive and communicative!”
“Bri did a wonderful job of taking care of our cats and updating us with photos everyday. She quickly understood their personalities and kept them entertained, happy, and well-scritched while we were on a long trip. Our cats usually give us the cold shoulder after trips, but this time, they weren’t petty thanks to Bri’s care and attention.”
“Renee has been checking in on our big goofball for several weeks now. He can be a bit skittish when he first meets people, but he adored her right away. She is wonderful with him and always sends detailed reports when she's done with her visits. Renee is great!”
“Karen is definitely a dog lover! She went above and beyond to make sure our Phoebe had a fun, exciting day, and got to make new friends. Karen invited our dog into her home and kept us thoroughly updated. Photos were great, as were messages. Definitely using her again!”
“Mackenzie was an absolutely incredible cat sitter. She gave our kitty lots of love and followed all of our instructions without issue. She left our home just as we had and she had excellent communication throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate at all to have her as our cat sitter again if we get the opportunity. I fully recommend Mackenzie if you are looking for someone to take care of your furry friend.”
“We are absolutely thrilled to have found Rich (Kemba) for our American Bulldog, George. Our meet & greet was off to a slow start, as George is not always friendly to new people. Kemba and his wife Sandra, however, we so amazingly patient, understanding and kind to George - allowing him time to warm up a bit as we talked about his particular needs. Clearly they have a wealth of knowledge and experience working with all sorts of animals, including those who are "misunderstood". We scheduled a 2 week period of 2/day drop-in visits for George, beginning with yesterday (while my husband and I were home to show Kemba the ropes). George was extremely unpleasant and unwelcoming, but Kemba remained calm and collected, explaining George's behavior and reassuring him. He reassured me as well, as I was stressing out over George's outburst. We reviewed some of the notes I left for Kemba and went outside for a short playtime. George is very capable, caring hands with this man. We have a very good feeling moving forward and are confident that he and George will be great friends. I cannot recommend Kemba more highly.”
“Emily was so great!! She sent so many photos and provided positive updates the entire time. We could tell our kitty was having a wonderful time during her drop-in visits while we were away.”
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. I know the care that is required to keep them happy and healthy. I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter. I’m currently a student at Johnson & Wales University and have classes from morning to early afternoon. I also work part-time at a coffee bar in Narragansett on Fridays and Saturdays in the morning. So I afternoon-evenings free all week. I have always had dogs and cats growing up and know what it means to properly take care of them. I also have volunteered at a dog shelter.
“Noah is great! We've already booked him again to take care of our cat, Bagel. He took great care, spent enough time with him, kept us updated multiple times per day, and Bagel loved him, even letting Noah pet his belly!”
“Ashley was so kind to my cat while I was away. She was patient and loving with little feisty Inzo and she showered her with love and treats. Ashley followed house rules and left detailed notes of the visit and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Ashley to take care of your fur babies! Thank you Ashley! :)”
About: I've had animals my whole life! I currently take care of my own 2 senior kitties and know they need special attention. I also had two dogs (puggles) from the same litter for 10 years before sadly losing one to cancer. This experience helped me learn how to care for sibling pets and a pet that is grieving the loss of another. Additionally, in high school, I took many companion animal classes and learned from industry experts how to care for pets. My neighbor was a dog groomer and showed dogs professionally, and I accompanied her at times to help with the dogs. IMPORTANT SCHEDULING NOTE: I am typically available between 5-11pm Monday to Friday, or anytime Saturday and Sunday. I am typically available anytime Saturday and Sunday. Monday-Friday I am available between 5-11pm. I am a very routine person and am known for getting to places early/ on time. No special request is too "weird" to me! I can ensure your pets have free roam of the place or are secured in a crate! I can take dogs outside in a fenced yard or on a leash if there is no fence. I also fully understand pets can be messy and never mind if I have to clean up any accidents (my experience with senior pets and a dog with bladder cancer taught me that).
“Carse has been wonderful with our baby while we’ve been out of town! She truly shows how much she cares for the animals in her care with her detailed messages and photos after a visit. I always have extra peace of mind knowing she’ll be caring for my kitty.”
“Maya took such good care of our dog while we were away. She was thorough in reading through all the care instructions I sent over and followed everything to a t. She sent plenty of pictures & provided regular updates. Our dog loved her & seemed to enjoy all her visits! We will definitely hire Maya again!”

This was our second time booking with Jasmine to watch our cat while we were away. Once again, Jasmine impressed with her care of and attention to our cat. She went above and beyond, even taking out the litter trash and offering to help with a few household tasks. We'll book with Jasmine again the next time we're headed out of town.
Absolutely amazing person. One of my pups can be very barky around new people until he gets used to them and Kemba handled this with confidence and fearlessness I have never seen before. Seriously, the last Rover we tried got scared off and said he was too much for her. It was difficult to find someone who would take the job, which is frustrating because while he wouldn’t hurt a fly he has a loud, and to some, intimidating bark. Kemba drove well out of his way to help us out, had no fear or apprehension when meeting him for the first time and was able to provide coverage on the days we needed with Shadow clearly having warmed up to him after a few visits. 10/10 will be booking him EVERY time a checkin is needed from now on!
As always, Christa was fabulous with our cats! We contacted her with short notice and luckily for us-she had space in her schedule. Christa always sends pictures that include all of the cats. They had plenty of fresh water and food while we were away And all their litter boxes were in great shape!! She is the best!
We had a wonderful experience! Emily was able to help us on very short notice, which was a huge relief. She took excellent care of our two cats, making sure they were well fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.
I’m very pleased with Samantha service. I was always informed about anything, any changes or behaviors with my dear 4 paws daughter. I definitely would hire Samantha again. She went above and beyond. Example: I told her that she didn’t necessarily need to take my Sam for walks but she asked if she could, I said that It was all up to her. my daughter loved it!!!
Jessica was fantastic with Lucky! From the moment he saw her at the meet and greet, they immediately clicked. I hired her to come twice a day and she always went above and beyond sending photos of Lucky throughout her visits. He always looked like he was having a great time while she was over. She took him on walks, played with him, and really kept him engaged. I'm always sad when I leave Lucky for a few days, but having Jessica there to keep him company eased my nervousness completely. Would have her watch him again in a heartbeat.
One of the best pet sitters you will ever find highly recommend. Very sad that she's moving away from my area. Wish they were staying cuz they're always so good. My pets love her and will always be in their heart. Like I said, very friendly. Very highly recommend I would hire her in a heartbeat again but like I said she's moving away so me and my pets are sad.
Kaitlyn was absolutely wonderful with my cats! She provided fantastic care, kept me updated with photos, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief finding someone so dependable and caring. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,001 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cranston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cranston stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
