“Michelle was an absolute pleasure to have watch my animals. She made a point to take extra care, and spend ample time with my dog Bowser and cat Jynx. She took pictures of my pets, to keep our minds at ease, so we never had to worry. I will definitely be calling her again when needed!!”

“Ellie is a real gem! I had a bad experience recently with another rover sitter in providence and was nervous to go away again. Ellie was punctual, followed the dogs routine and I felt comfortable with her watching my dogs and my home. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and clarify information. She truly does treat the pups like her own which is so important and makes a real difference in your dog sitting experience. I absolutely recommend her! loved all the photos too :)”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. They aren't just pets, they're family and they deserve to be treated as so. I take time, love and pay attention to detail to making sure your family members are taken care of to your expectations. I am available throughout the day all week. I've been needing a reason to get out of the house and your doggo is the best reason to. I have two large dogs at home and they are big snuggle bears who always need attention. I have been taking care of our family dogs my whole life and love dogs more than words can describe.
“Sarah was amazing. So intuitive with our nervous dog, who was immediately comfortable with her. Reliable, responsive, kind, caring and very clean. We feel so grateful to have found her! Thank you for taking such good care of our pup.”

“Maya was exceptionally caring with our 2 dogs and continued training and extra attention for our 3 month old puppy. Maya was totally responsible as a house sitter and communicated with us frequently throughout her stay. I would highly recommend her for any pet needs.”

“Raven to the rescue! Enzo had a rough night due to his advanced age, but Raven was a blessing. Enzo was cared for throughout the ordeal. We couldn’t have felt more confident! Thank you!”

“Heath stayed at my house to care for my cats and was incredible! Fantastic communication throughout the time I was gone with amazing pictures. Heath not only tolerated my complicated instructions but even created a spreadsheet to keep track of everything. I had a few extra things pop up that needed to be done, and Heath was very flexible and helpful.”

“Isabel is fantastic with my two big dogs! They have various health concerns and lots of energy, and she made us feel so comfortable with all the great updates/photos while staying at our house for the long weekend. Not only is she a wonderful house guest, we can tell how much our dogs truly enjoy spending time with her!”

“Cailey was super communicative, followed instructions carefully, and asked thoughtful questions when needed. She provided great updates throughout, and my dog seemed genuinely happy in her care. Overall, she was a wonderful sitter, and I would absolutely book her again.”


“Without a doubt, the best pet (and house) sitting experience we have ever had. Xinwei D. (who goes by Garrett) took extra special care of our aging dog, Bernie, while also leaving our home in better condition than we left it. He followed directions to a T, kept in constant communication and sent pictures and updated every day. He will be out first choice in sitters every time. Honestly, we couldn't have taken better care of Bernie ourselves, and being gone for a week knowing someone competent and compassionate was back at home taking care of everything gave us unmatched peace of mind. If he's available, book him for your next drop-in or house sit. You won't be disappointed. Thank you, Garrett!”

“Rayna was great to work with as she took care of our little pup Ollie! She was an amazing communicator, sent regular pictures, took Ollie on good walks and took great care of our house. We would be lucky to work with her again!”

“Jean treated Zu Zu as her if she were her own pup. We were kept updated throughout our time away, with pics, videos and texts. We had a late return flight and Jean went above & beyond by laundering the sheets, making sure we didn't need to do so when we arrived home. We are grateful for Jean's incredible care of our little girl!”

“Julia was absolutely amazing with our fur baby Geralt! She stayed at our home with him during our trip and we came back to a totally spotless home. We could tell that she loved him like one of her own and totally spoiled him. We could not have asked for a better experience and could not recommend Julia enough!”

“This is our 2nd time using Sophie for in home dog sitting. Sophie engages, plays and loves Luna while caring for her & also sends updates and pictures often. Our dog is always happy and very well taken care of.”

About: I adopted my dog when he was two and trained him to become the calm, well-mannered gentleman he is today. Now a senior, he’s an expert at finding the best spot on the floor and supervising the household from there. Caring for him has taught me the patience, attentiveness, and extra support older dogs need. I’m dependable, observant, and committed to following each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog prefers long walks, slow strolls, playtime, or professional-level napping, I’ll treat them like my own. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is genuinely one of the best parts of my day. I plan my schedule carefully so every visit gets the time and attention it deserves... never rushed or squeezed in as an afterthought. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, arrive when expected, and keep you updated while you’re away. I know consistency helps pets feel safe, especially when dinner is served three minutes late and they’re considering filing a formal complaint. Safety and trust come first. In a client’s home, I follow instructions closely, respect the space, and keep doors, gates, and leashes secure. I know from my own dog's personality that pets are not always committed to the honor system. I’ll maintain their usual feeding, walking, and playtime routines while giving them the patience and attention they need to feel comfortable. In my home, any introductions to my calm senior dog would be slow and supervised, with separate spaces available for meals and rest. I’ll also provide honest updates so you can relax knowing your pet and home are being treated with genuine care and respect.
“Christina was wonderful. She loved our dog and cat and they loved her. Feeling confident about taking a 7 day trip in the care of someone you trust is a great experience. We highly recommend her.”

Heather was able to accommodate our last minute request to sit with our Alli. She was fantastic! She has great enthusiasm and a deep love for animals. Alli immediately took to Heather! Heather arrived right on time. She sent pictures and updates. When we returned home we could tell Alli was completely attached to Heather! We will be using Heather many more times in the future.

Rena not only made Kobe feel comfortable in evenings where he was feeling the thunder scaries but she also had some of the best communication I have experienced from a sitter. Throughout all visits, I got updates and she always followed up on my requests. Thanks for taking good care of my sweet bubba!

This is the second time we have booked Bri to stay at our house, over night for 5 days,with our pups. She is so attentive, caring and kind. It is always clear, from day one, that both dogs are happy and comfortable with Bri. 100/10 stars. We will definitely book with Bri in the future, as long as she she is available. I cannot speak of her more highly. THANK YOU BRI!! <3 -- Brandice, Duncan, Kenzie & Willow.

Sophie did a wonderful first time housesitting to my best friend Oakley, who is certainly a handful! she followed instructions, took care of the home and left him happy and healthy. Thank you so much Sophie for taking care of best friend. looking forward to rebooking with Sophie in the future!
JL was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Barley. He followed our detailed instructions and was caring and considerate of Barley’s needs. He updated us frequently, sent many photos, and left our house very clean. We would recommend him to other pet parents and hope to use him again in the future!

Julia was an A+++ dog sitter. We don’t leave our dog too often and seem to be unable to find a dog person who loves being a dog sitter. JunieB sensed her love of dogs immediately. We came home to a happy dog and an immaculate house. I only hope that Julia will be our go to forever!!!

We are so grateful that Jen cared for our dog Rhea during our recent trip. She spent a lot of time during the meet and greet getting to know us and our dog, and even came on a short walk with us to see how Rhea did on her leash. She was adaptable to her unique needs including Rheas health conditions and medications. Thank you so much for your wonderful care!

Samantha was attentive, communicative, respectful, patient and friendly. She took care of our 3 dogs who all have very different needs overnight for a week. The daily photos were appreciated and showed that our pups were happy and well cared for. Our home was well maintained and our mail ( lots of it!) was taken in. We will be booking again. Thanks Sam!

Emily did such a great job taking care of our kitties! We appreciated all the photos and updates she provided. She was very reliable and communicative which eased our minds while on vacation. Our kitties definitely loved her and will look forward to seeing her again. Thanks Emily!

Maryann was such a lifesaver for us! We had a special event to go to out of town, but by golly there are Rover sitters everywhere, including Providence, RI. Maryann hung out with our little Bonny (a 5-lb. snuggly little chihuahua) in our hotel room, and was a calm, warm presence. Very professional in wanting to know about Bonny, what she liked/didn't like, special instructions, etc. She came highly recommended and we now happily join that chorus of satisfied customers. Thank you, Maryann!

My two dogs were very well cared for while I was away and relaxed & happy when I returned home. Mackenzie did a great job balancing the needs of my attention hogging 100+ lb boy and his diminutive, sweet senior sister. It was a relief to know they were in good hands while I was away and a delight to find my house in order upon my return . Thanks Mackenzie!
