About: After losing my dog of 15 years, I’m not ready for another of my own just yet—but I miss the joy of being around dogs and would love to help care for yours. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule with some daytime availability. I also have strong availability in the evenings and on weekends, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable care. I will carefully follow your specific instructions and preferences when caring for your dog. My own dog was very special, and as he got older he became quite particular, so I understand how important it is to adjust to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine.
About: I’ve shared my life with dogs for as long as I can remember—big, small, young, old, and nearly every breed in between. Currently, I’m the proud pet parent to two senior dogs, which means I know firsthand how to give older pups the gentle patience, calm environment, and extra care they deserve. Since I work from home, my schedule is wide open for playtime, belly rubs, and hanging out with your wigglebutts—big or small! With all-day supervision, timely potty breaks, and meals served right on schedule, you can rest easy knowing your furry babies are living their best, happiest lives while you're away. 🐾 Welcome to your pup’s home away from home! 🐾 Here is what makes our spot the ultimate pet paradise: • The Zoomie Zone: We have a fully fenced-in backyard ready for all the fetch and sniffing your dog's heart desires. • The Chill Out Lounge: Got a shy fur baby or someone who just needs a break from my own pups? Our secure, quiet den is the perfect peaceful retreat. • Travel Light: Don't stress about packing heavy! We are fully stocked with extra toys, cozy blankets, and comfy kennels if your pup prefers their own safe sleeping space at night or while I'm out running quick errands. • Double the Love: The best part? I have a built-in assistant! My teen son is a certified animal lover who is always down for playtime and belly rubs. Your pet will never feel lonely here!
“Gary was a fantastic caretaker for our puppy, Murray. He was in contact with us daily and sent updates, videos, and pictures to share how happy Murray was while staying with him. Gary took Murray out multiple times a day to make sure he was happy. Garry is just a natural with animals. The attention and love Murray received each day was genuine and pure. I will 100% be asking Garry to watch Murray again in the future! I would give him 10 stars if I could!”
“Marie and her husband Bill watched our Chihuahua puppy Coco for an overnight visit. They were so wonderful and welcoming to our sweet puppy! She was very responsive via text and sent photo updates which put us at ease. We would definitely book with her again. They are wonderful!”
“Kendra was great! She was flexible and communicative and my older dog had a slight seizure while in her care and she kept her cool and also made me feel comfortable from afar! My dogs enjoyed their visit and would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Marilyn was an absolute blessing! She accepted Smoky last minute after my original sitter canceled while I was here visiting from Florida for a family vacation. From the moment I met her, I felt completely safe and comfortable leaving him in her care. She kept me updated, sent pictures, took him on walks, and made sure he was happy and engaged. It was obvious Smoky truly enjoyed his time with her. She even told me he was such a joy and hated to see him leave, which meant so much to me and showed how much she truly cared for him. I truly appreciated the love and care she gave him. The next time I bring Smoky home, Marilyn will absolutely be my first and only choice. Highly recommend her!”
“Erin took great care of Lily during a four-night stay (and Lily’s first boarding in a good few years). Lily seemed comfortable and settled quickly, and Erin was very accommodating of her particular habits—including adjusting her schedule on the first day so Lily wouldn’t be left alone in an unfamiliar place, and being patient with her reluctance to go very far on walks when I’m away. I received photos and updates during the stay and came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Erin also very kindly brought Lily home at the end of the booking. I’d be very comfortable having Lily stay with her again.”
“Mae took excellent care of our dog during an overnight stay. She truly prioritizes the animal’s well-being, and has outstanding communication with the owners. I would highly recommend her and will look to book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs since I was a kid. Mainly molosser breeds. I’m a very active person so high energy dogs are more than welcome. I can assist with teaching basic commands such as sit, stay, lay, leave it, and recall commands. Things you can expect under my care: walks, runs, and training if needed and requested. If given permission, dog parks and occasional trips to the beach depending on the weather and time under my care. I work full time Monday through Friday 5am-3:30pm so I recommend booking for the weekend for long stays. Shorter stays can be made during weekends between 3:30pm-6:30pm (length of care Monday-Friday may be negotiated) Care will be primarily conducted out in town as I do not have a yard. If home pets will be crated with scheduled potty times.
About: I’m 24 years old and have been surrounded by dogs my entire life! I grew up in a household with two dogs at a time, primarily larger breeds, including Huskies, Labrador Retrievers, and Akitas. Growing up with these breeds has given me a great understanding of different personalities, energy levels, and the importance of consistent training, exercise, and attention. I also have hands-on experience training my own Akita from puppyhood, which taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of positive reinforcement. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly dog sit for my aunt when she travels, looking after her cattle dog and Golden Retriever puppy. This includes maintaining their daily routines, feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they receive plenty of love and attention while their family is away. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, especially larger, energetic breeds, and understand that every dog has its own personality and needs. I truly love animals and treat every dog I care for as if they were my own. My goal is always to make sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and safe while giving their owners peace of mind! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy! I'm a very active person who loves being outdoors, going on walks, and staying busy, so I'm always happy to have a four-legged companion join me. I'm comfortable adjusting my routine to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your dog may have. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, and always do my best to maintain their normal routines. I am happy to communicate about availability and work with owners to find a schedule that works best for everyone! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness will be my top priority! Having grown up with larger breeds, including Huskies and Akitas, I understand the importance of being attentive, responsible, and aware of each dog's individual behavior and needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to follow all instructions provided by their owners, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications if needed and instructed, and any household rules. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for some dogs, so I always try to create a calm, loving, and familiar environment. I am especially mindful of keeping doors, gates, and leashes secure, particularly with energetic or curious dogs. I also believe communication is incredibly important and am always happy to provide updates and pictures so owners know their pets are doing well. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Heather was very easy to communicate with, very knowledgableand and very accommodating. She sent pictures too! I know my Tika enjoyed her stay. I would definitely use Heather again!”
“My dog Winnie stayed with Marissa for the weekend. She came home happy and content. Marissa responded to my many check-ins. She was patient and kind. Winnie jumped up and gave her snuggles before she left, so that tells me she had a great time.”
“Heather is so sweet & fantastic. She took such good care of my pups. I appreciated her thoughtful communication and compassion for the doggos. I will certainly come back to her again and will recommend her to my friends & family. She's amazing & I'm so grateful to have connected with her!”
About: I grew up with dogs constantly in my house hold. Got my first puppy when i was 22yrs old and have had a dog ever since. I’m an active person who loves to train and play with animals of all kinds. they really add joy to everything. I’m currently working from home and have plenty of availability to help and want to add a little extra to my day to make it fun I have a fenced in yard and a crate if needed. Animals are a part of the family and will be treated as such in my care
“Rebecca took great care of our boy. He had such a good time relaxing and playing with her dog. She sent me multiple pictures and daily updates. He’s not always the easiest but he liked her a whole lot.”
“Hanna is amazing! I got daily updates with pictures of my dog. She is very easy to get in touch with- super fast response time. Sometimes my dog comes home a little mad at me- but after staying the weekend with Hanna she was happy and loved.”
“Steven was great, taking on a last minute reservation for my dog when my friend who was going to stay with her fell and hurt herself. It was reassuring to me that Brooke was with a nice and caring family while I was away. I will definitely contact Steven again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Providence
We had such an excellent experience with Isabel and her family! We highly recommend her. We have two elderly dogs who require a lot of care; Isabel dove in and gave them the best of care and lots of love. We received lovely daily updates with photos on how they were doing, and they came home happy and healthy. We will definitely use Isabel again!
I had a wonderful experience leaving Max with Shawn! She has a lovely backyard where Max could play and enjoy himself, and she took such great care of him. She was caring, attentive, and professional, which gave me peace of mind knowing Max was in good hands. I truly appreciate her kindness and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!
Alex was so wonderful to work with and Peter truly was not ready to leave when I went to pick him up. She sent tons of updates with photos, was incredibly responsive, and most importantly took great care of our pup. We will absolutely be using her again when we’re in the area!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Daniel! He was wonderful with our Eliza, but what really stood out was his incredibly thoughtful communication. We could tell he cared about making her stay full of love, care and belly rubs. His updates with photos made being away so much easier, and we picked up our girl knowing she was in excellent hands. Highly recommend!
We can’t say enough good things about Eliza! She took Marvin in with such short notice, it was impressive. The handoff was super easy and Eliza was very communicative; sharing photos and videos of Marvin. These were great action shots! Not only that, but she was very flexible when plans changed due to a flight change. We highly recommend her and will be bringing Marvin back whenever we need a sitter!
Doris was just wonderful! My sweet Ellie is a senior and needed meds given at multiple times a day, and also needed gentle loving care. I was so worried to leave her! Doris responded to a call and all texts promptly. Many pictures were sent and I truly was able to not worry as much after I left, as I did before I left. Thank you Doris!!
Tammy was a total lifesaver. My original sitter canceled 2 days before my trip to Europe and Tammy opened her schedule up to take my Ziggy! She treated his so well and sent me updates to see how happy he was! I think he enjoyed his vacation too! I will absolutely be working with her again and couldn’t recommend her more!
She was great with my cat! My cat can be a little shy and doesn’t warm up to new people easily, but she was very patient and gave her the space she needed. I really appreciated how understanding and gentle she was. It was reassuring knowing my cat was in good hands. Would definitely recommend her! ❤️
Matthew took Rex as a last minute boarder after our regular sitter had an emergency. He was really gentle and understanding with our elderly dog who was confused and nervous to be in a new place. We received plenty of updates and photos of Rex going on walks and snuggling. Excellent sitter!!

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.
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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in RI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
