“Barbara took terrific care of my three cats while I was on a long weekend vacation. I’d absolutely rebook her the next time I need someone to cover cat sitting.”
About: Hello! I'm a passionate and experienced pet care provider who truly loves cats and dogs. With years of hands-on experience, I tailor each pet's care to suit their individual needs, ensuring they receive the attention, affection, and enrichment they deserve. Whether your furry friend is a playful puppy, a curious kitten, or a senior companion in need of gentle care, I am dedicated to making their time with me both safe and enjoyable. I believe in using only positive, force-free training methods to interact with pets. Every animal deserves to be treated with kindness and respect, and I work to build trust and understanding through patience and encouragement. In addition to regular care, I am well-versed in creating enriching activities that cater to both cats and dogs. From stimulating games for mental and physical engagement to comfortable relaxation routines, I focus on keeping pets happy and healthy. I also have extensive experience caring for senior pets, including administering medications and providing the special attention they often need. Whether it's taking extra time on a walk, helping them get comfortable at home, or ensuring they take their medication on time, I'm here to provide the extra support that senior pets require. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I look forward to providing them with loving, individualized care! Pet care is a key part of my daily routine! I prioritize ensuring every pet I care for gets the attention, exercise, and enrichment they need. Each day, I dedicate time to provide interactive play, fun activities, and training sessions tailored to the individual needs of both cats and dogs. Whether it's a walk, a game of fetch, or quiet cuddles, I make sure their physical and mental well-being is supported. For pets with special needs or seniors, I always factor in any additional care or medication they require, ensuring they’re comfortable and happy throughout the day. Pet care is not just a job for me; it’s a passion, and I love making sure pets feel loved, safe, and entertained while they’re in my care. When a client trusts me in their home I take that responsibility seriously. I treat your space with the utmost respect and follow your instructions to the T. My home features a private, fully fenced yard. My dog is very friendly and loves to play all day. Meet and greet required first to ensure everyone's comfort and safety.
About: I have worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility in North Kingstown for more than 10 years! Due to my experience, I have worked with dogs of all sizes, shapes, ages, personalities, etc. Between the dogs at my job, the care I have done for clients through Rover in the past and my own pets at home, I have a ton of experience caring for animals. I will treat your pets as if they were my own! I work the afternoon/evening shift at my job, but my mornings are open to those who are looking for pet care on the earlier side! I do have some weekend availability. Don't hesitate to send a message, and I can try to accommodate to the best of my ability! I will take your pet for a nice walk (at their pace, for their comfort) around the neighborhood or to their favorite spot, or spend my time playing/giving company to your pet when you're not home. My attention stays on the animal at all times as you never know what pets will try to get into. If there are any concerns, I will immediately notify you and thoroughly check the animal if necessary (to their comfort level, I will not push an animal to let me examine them but will promptly let owners know of any concerns and take necessary steps to ensure the animals safety.) I can offer water or food at your request and give medication if ever needed with your instructions.
“Armitage is absolutely amazing with my dog. Super attentive, great communication the entire time, and followed all instructions perfectly. You can tell Armitage genuinely care, and my dog was so comfortable and happy. I’d definitely book with Armitage again!”
“We’ve had the pleasure of having Jean for drop in visits with our chihuahua for the past few months. So happy to have found her. These little dogs aren’t that easy but we feel very assured he is in good hands. Jean helps me navigate the rover app, is reliable and gets back to me promptly.”
“Reliable, informative (posting pictures, notifying me of her arrival) and easy to reach via Rover with quick responses. Kitty looking forward to seeing you again next month! 😀 😻”
About: I’ve taken care of pets in my neighborhood since I was a kid and have always loved doing so. I have a cat of my own and have recently lost my childhood dog but want to share my love and care for animals! I am working at a summer camp which has about 35 hours a week but am available early morning and evenings and can always slip out on my breaks as well! I love making sure pets can trust me and incorporate plenty of play and cuddle time! Apartment with a 2 year old cat. Not sure of experience with other cats and doesn’t mind other dogs (only experienced with one elderly dog)
About: I grew up with a Jack Russell and Golden! Currently, I have a 4 month old lab mix puppy named Mia. We love long walks and the dog park. I will treat your furry family member like my very own! No ask is too big or to small walk, run, bath, ext. I work in Narragansett 7-3 Monday-Friday and am happy to walk and visit any furry friend! I’d be happy to stop on my way home for you and am active in my routine. My house is puppy proofed with plenty of pet friendly toys. My puppy loves other dogs and is extremely friendly to play with and walk. I have a large crate that can be used if need be and a play pen cage. If we walk long at night I have light up collars for the pups. When traveling in the car I have seat belts for the dogs so they will be nice and safe.
“Brianna was great with Penny and was able to accommodate me last minute!! She kept in touch and made sure she was taken care of. I will definitely be using Brianna’s services in the future.”

Some weekends if 2 week notice. Mornings afternoons and evenings work durning the week.

“She followed directions and took excellent care of our two pups and baby bunnies. This is our 3rd family vacation using Zoe and she is always wonderful. Thank you Zoe for putting our mind at ease hundreds of miles away from our fur babies!”
“Brooke was amazing! She is reliable, easy going, accommodating and the dog loved her. She was great enough to meet the dog before the appointments and was always on time. I would definitely recommend her and I will be using her services again in the future.”
“Liz is so great! She helped care for my dog Sassy while we were away for a weekend. She gave updates and sent cute photos. It gives me so much peace of mind to know Sassy is in good hands. 10/10.”
“I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care Danielle provided for my 14-year-old cat, Emerson, over the New Year holiday. From the moment I met her, it was clear she’s kind, responsible, and truly loves animals. Emerson, who can be a bit shy with new people, warmed up to Danielle right away, and I knew she was in great hands. Danielle kept me updated with sweet photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my time away. I could tell Emerson was well-cared for, and I’ll absolutely be booking Danielle again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!”
About: I am a current PhD student at Brown University with over a decade of experience caring for animals. I volunteered at my local humane society for a few years, working with both cats and dogs (including under-socialized animals). I have participated in numerous trainings and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. I currently have a cat of my own named Gouda (he’s a typical orange cat!) who is my world. I will treat your furbaby like my own - with love, respect, and care. I love all types of animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am a full-time student with tons of time over the summer when I work part-time. My schedule is very flexible (not a normal 9-5) so I can meet almost any scheduling ask. I would love to fill my free time with dogs and cats! I build trust with dogs and cats by moving slow, reading and respecting your pets body language, and staying calm to ensure that we are both safe.

Gabriela is amazing with our cat! Our cat loves her, and is always waiting for her to come back! This is our 2nd time booking her, and she was amazing! She gave her treats and brought wet food to try and a new toy to play with. She also noticed when our cat was really hot and made sure we had a fan going to keep Buffy nice and cool. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated so we could always see that she was happy and well. We will definitely be booking Gabriela again, I really recommend Gabriela as your pet sitter, she is the best at what she does!
I’m so happy to have found Barbara. I really appreciated her thoughtful communication, detailed check-in updates, and the wonderful photos she sent while caring for my kitty. It’s clear that Barbara is a true animal lover, and my cat took to her right away. I highly recommend her and hope to rely on her excellent kitty care again in the future.
Phoebe was amazing. This was our first time using Rover and I am so fortunate to have found Phoebe. Our cats are like our children and she took such fantastic care of them. Her communication was incredible. We felt so comfortable having her check on our kitties and care for them. Would have her watch our cats again in a heartbeat. Thank you Phoebe!
Kerry did a great job keeping us informed about our three elderly cats. Insulin and pills were not a problem for her to give. She stayed awhile to comfort our very oldest cat who loves attention. We will certainly call on her again the next time we travel. Thank you, Kerry!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in East Greenwich on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 July 2026, there are 2,500 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across East Greenwich. 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 East Greenwich 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Greenwich. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
