“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!”
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.
“Savannah was very kind, she sent lots of photo updates, and was super flexible with us during our travels. She is our new go-to dog sitter for when we go away. Thanks Savannah!”
“Hannah was sooo good to Seamus. He had a great 3 day stay, and her communication with me, while on our vacation, was terrific. We would highly recommend Hannah to anyone.”
“Malerie was awesome! She and her family were the perfect fit for our pup. Would totally recommended…10 out 10! She sent us updates, pics and videos which kept us at ease while we were out of state. It was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and it was a great experience.”
“Elba was so sweet and amazing with our dog Tucker! She has an adorable backyard but still also took him on walks throughout the weekend. She sent constant updates and was very responsive. Would definitely use her again!”
“Lisa is an amazing sitter! She sent lots of updates and I knew that my dog was in great hands the entire time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would love to have her watch my dog again.”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing watching Mika. Ashley not only treated her like her own dog but was very accommodating when I had to drop Mika off sooner than planned. Ashley is such a caring and honest person. If you want to leave your fur baby with someone, make sure to book with Ashley. Thank you so much Ashley for taking great care of Mika❤️”
“Rocky had an EXCELLENT stay with Courtney and a great, fun time. Rocky is an older dog with some minor health concerns and Courtney made me feel completely comfortable. Courtney is so friendly, competent with a lovely fenced in yard for dogs. She even sent me adorable pictures throughout Rocky's stay. I was completely at ease while Rocky was there. I highly recommend Courtney!”
“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!”
“Mary is great! Both of our girls love going to her house. She also is very caring of the animals she takes care of. If something is wrong she is awesome at communicating. We have already booked with Mary two different times. She is definitely someone I would recommend and someone we will be using again! Thank you so much Mary!”
“What a wonderful job Madison did taking care of our dog and cat for nearly two weeks. She sent regular updates via text with pictures which is always great. Most importantly, the animals were incredibly happy. Our dog has some separation anxiety and when we returned, it was obvious that Madison and her husband had provided our dog with a caring a really secure environment for the duration of his stay. Thank you so very much!”
About: Aside from taking care of my family’s sweet chocolate lab, I have about six years of pet sitting and walking for friends, family and friends of family! I usually watch three sweet rescue pups in Massachusetts- Archie, Gracie and Ollie. I have pet sit for dogs big and small! I also often walk a chunky chocolate lab here in Newport and look forward to walking him every time I part ways with him. Other than pet sitting and walking, I also volunteer at the Potter League for Animals in Middletown, RI where I am usually walking or playing with the rescue dogs or socializing with the cats! I am a psychology student at Salve Regina University where I am currently taking an animal training course where my peers and I go to the Potter League and teach dogs how to sit, stay, lay down, leave it and many other skills! I am passionate about pet care and would love to take care of your fur babies! I am currently a student at Salve Regina University and I have classes Monday-Thursday: 10-10:50 am and 2:30-3:45pm on Monday, Tuesdays and Thursdays 9:30-10:45am and 3:45-5:00pm and Wednesday 1:00-3:30 so I am available any time I am not in class! I watch pets in the comfort of their own home! Unfortunately I would not be able to watch pets in my apartment as my roommate is not a fan of pets.
About: I’ve had a dog since 10 years old , at 16 I started walking dogs for people. From there I started to dog sit , board, or even just do drop-ins. Doing that gave me the opportunity to experience all pups or different ages . I’m currently a stay at home mom , so I’m always home and able to give all the time needed & potty breaks. My children are gentle and pet friendly . I have a big back yard (not fenced) but will keep dog on leash, walks around the neighborhood. Mostly lots of cuddles and play time and a safe and clean enviroment .
“I couldn't be more thrilled with the care Gil and his dog, Moon, provided for my 50-pound husky puppy, Guy, this weekend! From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. Gil kept me updated throughout the weekend with adorable pictures of the two dogs playing and having a blast together. It was clear that Guy was not only well-cared for but genuinely enjoying himself. Gil’s communication was excellent—he made sure I felt at ease, sending me regular updates that reassured me Guy was having a fantastic time. Moon, his dog, was the perfect companion, and I could see the bond they quickly developed. The playtime, walks, and overall attention Guy received made it clear that Gil is a true dog lover who goes above and beyond to ensure every pup is happy and safe. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter, I highly recommend Gil. He treats your dog like family and makes sure they have an enjoyable, stress-free stay. Guy can’t wait for his next visit!”
“Angelina was a spectacular host! She sent constant updates, was flexible, had a great set-up, and most importantly gave a lot of love to my girls. 10/10 would highly recommend! Thank you Angelina! I would also note she was able to accomodate (in my circumstances) a last minute, 3 week stay for my pups which is unheard of. That speaks to her heart and caring nature!”
“First time using Rover and first time in 10 years having a sitter outside of immediate family, we were so nervous. Samantha met us prior to and put us at ease. We had a wonderful experience having Samantha caring for our 2 boys while away! She sent us photos and little updates everyday and even had some great suggestions for us moving forward about a feeding time issue we were having.”
“Alana was amazing with our puppy, she sent so many great pictures and treated him so well! He was in very good hands and I didn’t worry at all while he was with her family! She has a wonderful home and a big yard, along with a 4 year old who is lovely with pets. Highly recommend boarding with Alana!!”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 823 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Exeter. About 92% of Exeter sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
