“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. :)”
“Bri took great care of our dog today! They had two great walks, he at his dinner, and he had plenty of snacks and attention. We came home to a very happy pup.”
“Michelle is the best! Our dog loved her- we marveled that he was like a better dog after walking with Michelle, more relaxed and easy going. She was very communicative and it was clear how much she cares about our dog. Thank you so much Michelle!”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever and pitbull, and have house sat for friends and family numerous times! My favorite part of the day is exploring the community with a pet buddy:) I am a full time graduate student with availability in the mornings and on weekends! I am an early bird with a flexible and accommodating schedule I love staying active and understand the importance of comfortability, reliability, and consistency! I have experience with animals who are on the anxious side and am able to meet the needs of each pet
“Maryann was great! She squeezed us in for a last minute meet and greet the day before our first visit. She was very thorough and gave detailed updates.”
About: Hello, I’m a Brown University graduate who gave up on the corporate life to live off my art and my passion for animals. I’ve always had pets in my life, and I’ve been caring for them since I was a kid. Growing up, I also helped watch my neighbors’ pets whenever they needed an extra hand. Now, I’m a proud dog mom to Bonnie, a sweet Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix I share with my partner. Because she’s our first dog, we dove deep into research, while at Brown, we studied canine behavior and body language to better understand how dogs communicate and what they need to feel safe and happy. That knowledge has been invaluable in helping us welcome pet guests into our home. When your pets stay with us, they’ll be treated just like Bonnie—with cuddles, love, fun walks, playtime, and plenty of care. My goal is always to make them feel at home, comfortable, and loved. I’m also available to provide pet care for weddings, birthdays, and other special or public events where your pet is part of the celebration! Whether you need help with supervision, transportation, or keeping your pet comfortable throughout the event, feel free to reach out to learn more about my services and availability. My schedule is very flexible, so I have plenty of time to walk, feed, play with, and cuddle your pets throughout the day. Whether they need extra attention, long walks, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure they always feel cared for. The first priority for me when caring for animals is safety. I pay close attention to the environment and make sure pets are always comfortable and secure. For dogs, I have a safe yard where they can play, take potty breaks, or just relax outside. I also live in a very pet-friendly neighborhood, perfect for safe walks and trips to the park. For cats, my home is equipped with window protection so they can’t slip outside (unless they are leash-trained or outdoor cats whose owners prefer outside time). I always respect each owner’s preferences—whether that means leash walks, indoor-only care, or a specific routine. If not in my own house, it's my pleasure to go to the owners house to take care of the cats! I will check the whole house to make sure everything is in order, clean everything, feed, hang out and play with the little ones! I pay attention to each animal’s unique needs. I believe communication is key, so I’ll always ask questions and keep in touch to make sure we’re on the same page.
About: I’m a huge animal lover! I grew up with big dogs and I recently within the last few years adopted cats and fell completely in love. I have a strong connection to animals and good with their boundaries to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve also been pet sitting since I was in high school. I’m a part time artist, (I paint pet portraits!) part time operational manager for another artist business which allows my schedule to be very flexible. I often have availability on a moments notice. I treat my cats like babies so you can expect me to do the same for your animals. If your pet needs me to sing them a little silly song while I make their dinner I will do it. I have a very calming presence animals tend to be drawn to. I respect their boundaries and allow them to feel safe with me before playing
About: Hello! My name is Veru, and I run a private, small family-owned home dog retreat in Riverside, RI. I work from home full-time and live a very active lifestyle, which allows me to provide flexible, attentive, and personalized care throughout the day. I began offering my services through Rover and have worked with many different pets of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds. I also have previous experience providing pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for friends and family. Your dog will stay in a calm, clean, cage-free home never in loud kennels or overcrowded facilities. I design each stay around your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home. My daughter, a college student, works by my side and can also provide in-home care at your residence if preferred, allowing your pet to remain in their familiar environment. What makes us different: • No cages • No strict restrictions or time limits • We follow your routine — or can implement ours • Park trips, neighborhood walks, bike-path walks, and beach walks (weather permitting) • Apartment complex dog park access • Limited dogs, full attention • Daily photo & video updates Your dog becomes part of our home, many guests even sleep with me for extra comfort, unless you prefer they sleep in their own bed. What to bring: Just your dog’s food, favorite snacks, favorite toy and their bed if they prefer their own — we provide the love, walks, play, rest, and care. 📍 Riverside, RI Boarding • Daycare • Private Walks • Pick-Up & Drop-Off I have a remote job, If you are hiring me for housesitting / daycare / boarding, you can sure l will likely be with your pet all day long. Note: My daycare rate is $45 for stays between 1 and 10 hours. If care extends beyond 10 hours, an extended care fee of $25 will apply. The final total is calculated and adjusted at the end of the booking based on the actual pickup time. Your pup’s trust and comfort are my top priority. I follow their regular routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Every pet has a unique personality and individual needs, and I take the time to understand and accommodate each one. For added safety and peace of mind, I also use GPS tracking during walks and outings until your pet is safely returned to you.
“Katie walked our two dogs three times a day for a week and was fantastic. She was always on time and sent photo updates. We would love to have Katie walk our dogs again - would absolutely recommend her!”
About: Woof! Meow! Don’t be off put by my headline - I am a big fan of both dogs and cats. I love walking dogs and am also available to housesit. I am a full-time writer and I do a lot of my work from home so I am pretty flexible during the week and on weekends! I am available for dog walking, drop ins, and house sitting. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I am more than happy to stay at your home when needed while providing your pets with all the love and care they need! I have experience with all kinds of dogs and of all ages.
“Natasha was great with my pup! He loved his walks and the attention she gave him. She was very professional and super quick to respond to any messages for booking. She even brought in a package for me that came during his walk which was very kind of her.”
About: Detail-oriented, compassionate, and fun, I have cared for pets for over 12 years! From puppy-hood to senior years, I have cared for dogs throughout their lifespan using positive reinforcement training methods learned from working alongside talented trainers and fostering dogs through local rescues. I value each animal as an individual with their own thoughts, feelings, and preferences. I am a full-time pet sitter and dog walker and part-time student, so I am available for all of your pet's needs! From potty training your new pup, to a family vacation- I've got you covered. Each pet is treated with respect, compassion, and positive reinforcement only. Walks: Need to get some extra steps in? I encourage dogs to make safe choices on walks like choosing our direction or sniffing interesting spots to fulfill their instinctual needs. Dogs must be on harnesses for their safety and mine. I do not allow on-leash greetings. Drop-ins: Potty training or need to give your buddy their meds mid-day? I provide a potty break, play time, or any other enrichment your dog needs to keep their day as fun as when you're home. Housesitting: Going on vacation? I follow your schedule to keep your dog's day as stress-free as possible! Most visits include drop-ins and walks in addition to lots of nightly snuggles. Will adhere to structured crate time if requested. My own dogs, May and Fig, receive daily walks, off-leash time, and enrichment, in addition to frequent camping and overnight adventures. I have successfully crate-trained my dogs and the dogs that I have fostered through positive reinforcement.
About: Canine CPR trained. Your pup’s safety and well-being is paramount and so my general policy is to not allow your dog(s) to interact with any other dogs or people (or squirrels or skunks) unless specified. - 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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Providence
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!
Grace has been walking our 2 year pup for a couple of months now and has been wonderful. Our pup is reactive, and Grace is very patient with her. Peanut comes back from her walks happy and tired. Grace is also very responsive in communicating and has been great to work with!
Brenda is great with our 2 year old pup, who is very anxious and can be a bit challenging when first meeting new people. Brenda is very patient with her, and was happy to implement the instructions with gave her to handle the reactivity. She walks Peanut every week for us, and it has been wonderful. Brenda is also very responsive in communicating!
Michael was very professional throughout our walk experience. He had great questions to ask when meeting our dog before the walk, sent pictures during and a a thorough update afterwards. We could tell our dog felt comfortable with him when they met as well. We would definitely book again.
Rania has taken care of my cat before so I rebooked her for my new puppy. Not only does she love cats and cares for them like her own but she is UNBELIEVABLY attentive to dogs. My puppy is new and needs tons of support and training and she dove in headfirst with no hesitation and without me even asking. Obviously like I dont expect her to train my dog but the fact that shes so attentive and notices even the slightest changes and moods of your furry friends is a MASSIVE plus. She even took a picture of my cat without my asking to update me in how shes acclimating to the new dog. She spent time with my new puppy and got him getting used to the crate and kept up with all the potty, walk, and crate training I’m doing. She is also super knowledgeable and gives great advice. She cares and is professional about it and realistic about the care she can provide. I enjoy working with her because it’s easy and she handles everything. She is not shy to clean up an accident or two either shes just amazing. Please please book her she is soooo good and she also responds SUPER fast.

Every walker 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
