“Victoria was an amazing pet sitter for drop in visits for our little meow. She was incredibly responsive with all communication, showed up on time, shared lots of updates and photos with us, and even checked on our chickens as well. She was proactive with questions, and just made us feel comfortable and at ease right away. She is a thoughtful and caring person, and her expertise and comfort with animals was very apparent in how she approached getting to Lia. We highly recommend Victoria, and are looking forward to having her back to watch Lia again soon!”


About: I've been raised with dogs and cats since day one. They are part of my DNA. I'm kind and caring and will treat your pet like my own. I am pet free for the very first time. Your pet will be my total priority. Call me, Jean. I have great references. I'm trained in first aid I am retired from Alaska Airlines. I make several week long trips a year. Otherwise I am close at hand to meet your needs at your home or mine. My bungalow is fenced in and has good dog walking areas surrounding the property. I normally take my pets to the beach 2 blocks from my home. Walking intervals are every 3 hours unless more is needed.

About: I am a full time PA and dog mommy. I have two frenchies of my own and grew up with many dogs in the household since I was a child. I use a dog walking service for days in the hospital and looking to give back to the dog community that’s helped me! Happy to take your pups out for long or short walks anytime after 330 during the week. I am available all day on Wednesday so would be much more flexible. Available some weekends as needed Each pet has their own specific needs. My two frenchies are very different and require different activities/attention. Each visit will be tailored to what the dog specifically needs

“Was able to really enjoy my vacation knowing Ashley was taking care of my dogs and cats. She is very accommodating and you can tell she cares about the animals in her care. Thank you very much! Will definitely use again.”


“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.”



“Dina was a life saver! Unexpectedly had to travel for work. She quickly responded and jumped into action. Dina took great care of my 2 boys which let me work without worry. It is important to me they stay in their routine and home. I would greatly recommend her and have her stay with them again.”

About: Cat and dog owner all my life, I also worked in a pet rescue for 2 years so I have plenty of experience taking care of special need animals. I have morning availability as well as afternoon availability, and am completely free on weekends. My schedule changes frequently so if you aren’t sure if you fit in, message me to check! I have tons of experience with all kinds of dog training and care, and support whatever you choose to do with your dog wether it be crating, special food, or any training methods you may use.

About: Hey, I’m Lucas! I’m from South Kingstown, RI, and I’ve been around animals my whole life. Right now, I live with two dogs, two cats, guinea pigs, and even some reptiles, so I’m pretty used to taking care of a variety of pets. Currently, I’m a full-time security guard supervisor and a full-time student at URI. While my schedule is busy, Rover allows me to combine my love for animals with the flexibility I need to support myself through college. I’m here to do what I love: care for pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walking dogs, playing with cats, or just making sure your pet is comfortable while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’ve had pets all my life, so I understand how important it is for them to get attention and care. I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly) friends and make sure they’re happy while you’re out! I am a full time security guard and student at URI but I can house/pet sit any night from 8pm-8am. I am also happy to do stop ins, and walks in the mornings. I am very experienced with a lot of animals, and all at once. If you need someone who genuinely cares about your babies I’m your guy!!

About: As a lifelong dog owner and enthusiast, I understand the care and attention our furry friends need. Currently, I have two wonderful but lively companions—Frankie, an energetic 4-year-old, 85-pound German Shorthaired Pointer mix, and Skyler, a spirited 1.5 year-old Dalmatian. Together, we enjoy daily walks and plenty of playtime in the yard. Life can get busy, and I know how challenging it can be to ensure your dogs get the outdoor time they deserve. That’s where I come in. Whether you have a large breed, a small pup, a mixed breed, or a purebred, I have experience working with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Let me help keep your pets happy, healthy, and active—even when your schedule gets hectic! I currently have a full time job, but can drop in and/or walk your pup between 3:00 and 7:00pm on weekdays (Mon - Fri). Weekends are more open and flexible. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine and ensure they feel comfortable and cared for in your absence. Using the detailed information you provide, I will follow your dog’s established schedule for meals, water, and overall care. Beyond meeting their basic needs, I’ll also provide safe playtime or walks as needed. I prefer positive reinforcement as it creates a trusting and enjoyable relationship.

“During our introduction meeting with Steph and Allie, it was clear how much they genuinely love animals. They were attentive to every detail, following instructions, and Hachi quickly bonded with them and felt completely relaxed. We’re excited to book them again soon to spend more time with Hachi.”


About: I am a college student at WKU looking to spend my down time with some furry friends! I grew up with several big German shepherds in my household before moving to college. I have always loved walking, and even running with my dogs at home and am looking to do the same to others! I like right next to a dog park and several beautiful walking trails that I would love to take some furry friends on! I am a college student and a cheerleader at WKU. I practice 3 times a week and have classes twice a week. As a college athlete, I believe I have a very flexible schedule! I spend most weekends, Mondays and Wednesdays with an open schedule! I do not have other pets in my home but I do live next to a dog park, the lost river cave, and a long walking trail! I keep a very clean home with 2 other roommates that also love animals just as much as I do!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and even exotic animals for 10+ years. I’m extremely watchful and cautious that the animals are happy and safe. Nothing is more important to me than making sure your animal is safe and happy in my presence. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to give pets lots of attention, love, and care throughout the day. I have two doodles of my own and have had dogs my whole life, so I'm very familiar with their routines and needs. I’ve also cared for more exotic pets like a ferret, birds, and bunnies—so I’m comfortable with a wide range of animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just being a calm, reassuring presence, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own - with lots of love, patience, and attention to their specific needs and routines. In my home, pets have a safe, clean, and cozy space to relax, play, and feel at home. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and snuggles (if they’re into that!). When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep things consistent and stress-free for both the pet and client. Whether it’s sticking to feeding times, walk schedules, or just keeping their favorite routine going, I’m all about making them feel comfortable, cared for, and loved.
