“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our dog, Pippa, than Tara! She watched Pippa for 10 days and treated her like part of the family. Tara was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals — Pippa absolutely adored her. We got regular updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Pippa was. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. Tara went above and beyond in every way — we came home to a happy dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

About: Huge pet lover since age 10! I started watching dogs in college and fell in love with it. I have also watched friends and families pets multiple times throughout my life. Whether it’s a playful pup needing a daily walk or a quiet bunny requiring gentle handling, i am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of each pet. I pride myself on creating a safe and loving environment giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in good hands! I work fully remote during the day meaning i will always be around to make sure your pet is fully attended to and taking all breaks needed. I have multiple fenced-in dog parks where I live and a great backyard if you would like your pet to have some outdoor play time. I am also opened to scheduling meet and greets before accepting a booking and can’t wait to meet!
“Donald did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! He was responsible, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Our dog was happy, well-fed, and relaxed when we got back — a true sign that he was in great hands. Donald kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’re so grateful for his care and would absolutely trust him to watch our dog again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Isabel is best! She and her husband took amazing care of our two dogs while we were away. They are excellent communicators and sent us really thoughtful updates throughout the week. You can tell Isabel is an animal lover and a responsible & caring person right away, so we felt at ease leaving our dogs in her care. She also has two very sweet and adorable dogs, so it was nice to know our dogs had some canine company to hang out with while we were away. Thank you again Isabel and Shawn!”
“Eve was wonderful!!! I got regular updates for Pepper’s first visit along with pictures. Pepper was nervous and they made her feel very comfortable and loved.”
“Keasha and her son are the best ! First time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. You can tell Keasha and her son love animals. Pictures and video updates were awesome to receive. Will definitely ask them to watch her again. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m Kristyn — lifelong dog lover and proud pup‑obsessed human. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been one of the happiest parts of my day. I’m newer to official dog sitting, but giving dogs attention, comfort, and a sense of safety is something that comes naturally to me. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, walks, or just being a calm presence, I love meeting dogs exactly where they are and making sure they feel at home. I treat every pup like my own, and I’m all about creating a fun, loving, low‑stress experience for both dogs and their humans. If your dog loves affection, routine, and a sitter who genuinely enjoys their company, we’ll be a great match. Dog sitting fits naturally into my routine because caring for dogs is already a big part of my everyday life—I have a dog of my own, so I’m used to building my day around walks, attention, and companionship. I work full‑time, but I offer sitting during the times when I can be fully present, like my work‑from‑home days, weekends, vacation weeks, and days off. Those are the moments when I can give dogs the consistency and care they deserve. I’m also open to weekend and extended stays when my schedule allows. My goal is always to make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and well‑looked‑after while they’re with me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. We have a fully fenced‑in yard that gives dogs plenty of safe space to run, sniff, and explore. Our dog Sammy is super‑friendly. She absolutely loves people, kids, and especially other dogs—she’s a great built‑in playmate for visiting pups. I have two kids (11 & 14) who adore helping with walks, playtime, and giving gentle attention, so dogs get lots of love and interaction throughout the day.
“Kathy treated our Pete like one of her own, we felt very comfortable knowing he was happy and being well taken care of. We will definitely leave Pete with Kathy again, we highly recommend her!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Mary and her family took great care of my dog Rory and provided pictures throughout the weekend. Rory was exhausted from playing with the kids, and she slept the whole next day after I picked her up. I will definitely ask Mary to watch Rory again.”
“Jessica was AMAZING with Rondo! She is super flexible with scheduling, pick up and drop off which we are so thankful for. It was our first time in a long time boarding our pup, but Jessica put us at ease when we met her and Abu at the meet and greet. They are both so sweet!! She provided us with updates and photos consistently and overall was an A+. Highly recommended her for all your boarding and pet sitting needs!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! This family truly love animals and treat them like family. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“I was extremely happy with Anely! She did wonderfully with peanut, who is a very nervous little dog. She sent us daily updates and photos, it really put me at ease. Will definitely book again when we visit Rhode Island!”
“Rebekah was amazing!! Our girl was so happy with Rebekah and her family. Rebekah sent me messages and pictures through out the weekend which helped my anxiety about leaving my baby girl! Thank you Rebekah I will definitely come back again! She even offered her food to go home with because our dog ran out!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fall River
We can’t say enough good things about Ashley & Nick! They watched our mini Bernedoodle for 6 days and we have never experienced such great Rover sitters. Oliver is part of our family and it means so much to us that he was treated the same way with Ashley & Nick. We would highly recommend them as your next sitters.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fall River home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
