“Oxana is amazing! Setup a meet/greet for my anxious doggy but instantly my dog loved her! She gives him so much care and love just like if my dog was her own. Couldn’t recommend anyone better than her!”

“We had never gone on vacation without our 6 year old dogs before. When we planned a trip to Barcelona, this was my one hesitation. Garrett (Xinwei) removed all my apprehension. We met with him before leaving and his kind nature and caring questions gave me the confidence and security I needed to be able to go abroad without worrying about something happening to my babygirls. His every photo captured how happy my dogs were in Garrett’s company, and his daily text updates assured me that they had everything they needed. We will 100% be rebooking with Garrett. :)”

About: Hi! My names Brianna and I’m your pets new best friend! I am a 25 year old vegan that was raised by a mom that worked in an animal sanctuary out on the West Coast. When we moved here to Rhode Island, my mom continued to be a vet tech and brought her love of animals home while we fostered all kinds! My love for animals alongside learning to care for them is not only in my blood, but began at a very young age. I have 10 pets of my own at home! Cats, reptiles, and spiders. While my cats are too attention demanding to have a dog of my own at the moment, I LOVE being around dogs whenever possible, there’s no dog too big or too small for me! This why I decided to join Rover! I’m also experienced in working with older, nervous, and young animals. I’m so excited to get to know your pet(s). Please feel free to inquire about daily/weekly/bi-weekly visits etc. getting to know your animals on a more personal level will make everything smoother for everyone involved and I’d love to be a long term friend. There’s nothing more rewarding than earning an animals trust. From high energy babies to senior care, I’m excited to build a trusting bond with any animal I meet! My visits will include plenty of love, fresh food and water, some treats if granted permission, potty breaks and walks, litter scooping, and whatever type of play time or cuddles they prefer (including just being fed and left alone!) Whether your pet is a social butterfly who craves interactive playtime, or a shy senior who just needs a quiet, comforting presence, I tailor my visits to their specific pace. I am highly reliable with strict feeding schedules, and administering medications if needed, including shots, oral pills and oral liquids. My top priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress free in their own environment while giving you total peace of mind with regular photo and text updates! I work from home in social media & marketing and create my own schedule, so I am available for same day visits and can work from wherever! I’m basically always on call for those last minute drop ins. I also love being outdoors and set aside time to go for walks myself every day, so taking a dog along with me would make what I already do even better. I have experience with ALL types of animals so there is no request that will be new to me. My own home has reptiles, cats, arachnids, and I’ve fostered dogs before! Have something specific your pet wants? I’m all ears! There’s nothing to big, small, or “weird” for me.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was around 12, as well as grew up around dogs. I’ve mostly done drop-ins which I’ll stay anywhere from 10-60 minutes depending on needs. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats throughout that time and many different sizes, breeds, and ages. I am currently between jobs, as I have just moved to Providence from Texas. So I have a lot of free time to spend with your pets and would love to work with you on the perfect schedule. I'm only available for drop-ins and walks currently, which I have much experience in. Safety is of the utmost importance and I will work with you to keep you, your pets, and me feeling safe and happy.

About: Retired military medic used to have and to help friends and battle buddies when their animals had to go when they had to go overseas or on TDY work trips and things like that also help friends and things too. I am very by the book so if you leave me a list of rules and what needs to happen I'll make sure it gets done. I have a very open schedule. I work from home so if you need me at any point in time I can make it fit within my schedule. For the safety of your pets and things, I usually like to do a quick visit to make sure that we're going to get along. I know if it is a cat that a lot of times trust needs to be earned with them and that you can't just pull them out from wherever they're hiding a lot of times it's earning their trust for them to be come out and be friendly. You do not force it on them.

About: Happy to take your pup on short walks for potty breaks, long hikes to release energy, and anything in between! I can bring my own poop bags and treats unless otherwise provided. Experience working with dogs of all ages and social levels. I am happy to wake up early, stay out late, and work part time during the week (some weeks off) from 8:30-4:10 but there will still be plenty of time to put your pets first! Ensuring your dog and you are comfortable is my first priority, I will take as much time as needed to adjust to your pups comforts.

Xinwei has taken wonderful care of my sheepadoodle Maisey! Every Tuesday, he takes her for a walk and feeds her dinner so that i don't have to worry if I am delayed as I take the commuter train home from Boston. He sends great photos of their time together and is very attentive to Maisey's needs. Maisey is absolutely smitten with Xinwei!

Donovan is punctual and communicates so much going above and beyond. There was a fire alarm going on in our building and instead of just dropping off our pups, he stayed with them outside waiting for the firefighters to turn off the alarm. Literally a one a kind dog walker. Book him asap, my pups will be seeing him every week!
