“Even before this first stay, Jean spent a great deal of time meeting Zu Zu and her parents, which we greatly appreciated! This weekend was a perfect opportunity for Jean to get to know Zu Zu's routine, likes/dislikes, etc. Throughout the weekend, we received pics and video clips, which provided us with reassurance that Zu Zu was being well cared for. Jean asked questions, offered feedback and even assisted us with getting both pet parents on Rover, so both of us were able to access pics/videos. We already have another stay booked!”
“Rayna did an incredible job with my dog, Lucy!! She asked how many updates I wanted on Lucy while I was away and I told her there was no limit, and she delivered the most fun photos and updates! Lucy clearly felt so comfortable with Rayna! I will absolutely be booking again.”
“Sarah and Mason took great care of our dog and two cats. When we arrived home after a week-long work trip, we arrived to find a lovely note letting us know when our dog was walked last, and when the animals were fed. Not only that the house was a clean as we left it and all the animals were super-happy. We will definitely use them again!!”
About: I’ve grown up with many dogs and watched dogs all my life. My mom was a dog groomer and owned a dog day care. I’m currently working part time and will be starting college in the fall but I can always make time to walk your pup or help with your cat! I can watch them overnight, watch them for the day, or take them out for a walks. I can definitely take your pup for a walk multiple times a day and however you train them in your home I will do the same.
“Excellent sitter. Victoria handled one of our dog’s specific mobility needs perfectly. Knowing she had everything under control really eased the separation anxiety for both us and the dogs. The house was left exactly how we found it—couldn't be happier with the choice. Will definitely be booking Victoria for future trips!”
“Victoria was great! We had her stay at our house for 4 days with our two Goldens. She was very communicative and kept us updated with photos of the dogs, which was extremely welcome and helped us relax a bit more during our long weekend away. I would absolutely recommend Victoria for anyone looking for a kind, caring, responsible dog sitter, and we will certainly be booking her again in the near future!”
About: I’ve been caring for my own dog for the past 8 years and have always loved being around animals.

I pay close attention to routines and instructions so pets stay happy and comfortable. I’m also comfortable giving medications if needed and following detailed care instructions. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal with patience and kindness. Pet care fits well into my routine and I have flexible availability. I’m able to do drop-ins, walks, and check-ins throughout the day depending on the pet’s needs. I’m reliable about sticking to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medication routines if needed. I take safety and routine seriously when caring for pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, medications, walks, and house rules. I make sure pets feel comfortable and keep a calm environment while they’re in my care. I also provide updates so owners know their pets are safe and doing well.

“Gianna is warm, friendly, competent and great with dogs. On short notice she was able to accommodate us and our needs for both dog and house sitting. She left the house in great shape, too. We are very pleased with her services and look forward to having her watch our dogs again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Greenwich
Gianna was so wonderful watching Murphy while I was away. He’s a very senior dog and she was nothing but so sweet and caring with him. She stayed with him overnight at my mom’s house and was such a joy to work with. I really appreciate her taking such great care of my old guy!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kharma stayed with this sitter for two weeks, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I received daily updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Kharma was well cared for, engaged, and having a great time. He enjoyed plenty of outdoor time, socialization, and activities, and the sitter followed all of my instructions carefully. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and they were always responsive, dependable, and professional. This has become my most trusted and frequently used sitter because of their reliability and consistency. Knowing that Kharma is safe, happy, and cared for as if he were their own makes all the difference. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter and will absolutely continue booking with them in the future. 🐾❤️
Jasmine was absolutely amazing! We were so grateful to have her stay at our house with our two pups while we were gone for the weekend. She went above and beyond, sent plenty of updates and the pups loved her! We already booked her for another weekend, I highly highly recommend!!
Tanya is amazing! She took the best care of my two pups over a two-week house sit. She kept the dogs on their routine and gave them lots of steps, play time, and snuggles. She sent tons of photos so we never worried, and was super responsive to all communications. She is responsible, reliable, and has a truly gifted way with animals! Our dogs were calm and content when we came home, so we knew they were comfortable with her. We will definitely ask her to sit for us again!

FAQs for House Sitting - East Greenwich
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Greenwich on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,476 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Greenwich. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred East Greenwich walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in East Greenwich maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East Greenwich choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
