About: Growing up next to a door trainer is no joke. It was definitely my gateway into pet sitting. With years of experience sitting all kinds of animals, I’ve never met a dog that hasn’t loved me. Reactive, old, needy, temperamental I’ve experienced it all. Reach out if you would like to set some time to meet and let me see how I can make your day a little better. As a part timer in nightlife, I work weekends at night. Luckily that frees up my week to be able to walk or sit for you! My superpower is sticking to the dogs routine, to set them up for success. Picky dog? Not a problem! If I do a longer stay; I will be sure to leave your home in better condition than I found it in.

“Bri has been a wonderful cat sitter for my boys and I’ve rebooked her a few times now and plan to continue to! I read all her little cards detailing the visit and it gives me such peace of mind while I’m traveling. Thanks Bri!”

“Noah was so patient with our puppy, and very communicative with us. Shared lots of updates, asked questions to make sure we were on the same page, and took care of the pup and cats as instructed. Will definitely book again!”

“Can not say enough about Heath!!! The absolute best friend Pickles & Peanut has ever had!!! Never have a worry when we are away for the love that is shown to them is amazing!!!!! WE LOVE YOU 😻😻❤️”

“Sarah was great at caring for our three dogs. She provided timely updates and put my mind at ease knowing she was there for them. She was also extremely flexible and understanding during my MANY schedule / last minute changes. Will book again for sure.”


“Caprice fed our cat for the weekend, and was very communicative, sent lots of photos and made us feel comfortable that Hendrix was safe and happy while we were away. We would definitely work with her again!”

“Absolutely amazing! Kenneth was on time and took care of my fur babies. My senior dog loved his drop ins for sure and the three walks a day. He made sure they had plenty of water and food. Cleaned the litter box too. Even played with Oreo the cat and his favorite string toy. Would definitely recommend to my friends and request him again if needed.”

“Sam took fantastic care of our 3 cats while we were away! She did a great job making sure the cats ate their food and administering medication. We appreciated Sam’s updates and communication. We will rebook with Sam the next time we travel, and would recommend her to others!”

“Oxana did a great job looking after our cat Bean while we were away for a long weekend trip, feeding him and taking care of the litter box. Oxana was communicative about issues with our apartment building entrance lock too. Grateful for the attentive care!”

“Ellie was awesome! She was incredibly responsive and sent pictures of our Tucker on walks and playing around the house. She was nice enough to meet up beforehand and listened to all our instructions to take care of our pup! Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Kaitlyn was amazing! She kept me updated and took excellent care of my puppy. This was my first time to use an online pet sitter. I was really anxious about leaving him. Kaitlyn took all of the worry out of the process. I would highly recommend her for your pets. If I’m back in Providence, I will definitely book with her again.”

“Maya was incredible! She went above and beyond to care for my pet when hurricane Helene hit and the aftermath. She is so caring and loving. She is amazing at communication and knowing how to navigate when everything goes wrong. I can’t say enough about how grateful I am to her. I would recommend her with my highest praise and enthusiasm. I feel so lucky that she was there for my pet. She is the very, very best.”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I’ve cared for horses, dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters etc. I have two little dogs and a cat of my own :) Ziggy, Chewy, and Jackson are my world and I dote on them daily. I promise to care for your fur babies like they’re my own ❤️ I have experience with medication administration and care for puppies and senior animals. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to devote a lot of attention toward your babies. I have a very flexible job and am often working from home so I have a lot of availability to adjust to your babies’ schedules. I have a large space in my home and am close to a nearby park to let the fur babies run around. My mornings start with a good morning treat, and then a long walk through the neighborhood. We follow it up with a post-walk lil dental treat and breakfast. I usually take my girls out three times a day and am happy to take your fur babies with us. I also have a cat who gets his breakfast at the same time (only the finest mix of wet and dry). After breakfast we usually play a little before they all tucker out and I get started on some work in the living room. Usually all the babies snuggle on the couch while I sip my coffee and sift through emails.
“Aidan was very kind and did a good job with my cat who can be on the shy side with new people! They were also very easy to communicate with and fairly quick to answer any messages. I do wish I had received a few more photos during the span of visits, but I also recognize it can be quite the task with crafty, hiding cats sometimes!”

About: Raised in a household where every animal was treated like family, I offer patient and attentive care for a wide range of companions. From high-energy dogs and affectionate cats to smaller specialized pets, I pride myself on understanding their unique instincts and personalities. Experienced Care for All Companions Dogs & Cats: I am comfortable with all temperaments—from senior dogs and shy rescues to "velcro" cats like my own who crave constant affection. Small & Unique Pets: My experience extends to birds, guinea pigs, and fish. I understand that smaller animals require a gentle touch and strict adherence to their specific feeding and habitat routines. Intuitive & Patient: I prioritize reading body language and providing space or snuggles as needed. My goal is to maintain a calm, empathetic environment where every pet feels safe and heard. Trusted Professional: As the go-to "on-call" sitter for my friends and family, I am known for maintaining consistent schedules and providing genuine companionship while owners are away. Whether your pet needs a vigorous walk, a pristine habitat, or a quiet afternoon of company, I am dedicated to keeping their routine on track and making them feel special. I work from home in Providence, which allows me to offer a high level of flexibility and reliability for your pets. Because my schedule is adaptable, I can easily integrate midday walks, feedings, or play sessions into my workday without rush. Daily Flexibility: Available for walks and check-ins anytime during the workday, as well as evenings and weekends. Regular or "On-Call" Care: Whether you need a consistent weekly sitter to keep a routine or a one-off "pinch hitter" when you're headed out of town, I can accommodate your schedule. Attentive Supervision: Working from home means I am a constant presence; if I am sitting in your home, your pet will rarely be alone and will receive the frequent attention they deserve. Prompt Communication: I pride myself on being reachable and providing quick updates so you never have to wonder how your companion is doing. I am happy to work around your pet's specific timing for meals and exercise to ensure their day feels as normal as possible while you're away. When caring for your pets in your home, my priority is maintaining a secure, clean, and private environment. I understand that you aren't just trusting me with your animals, but with your personal space as well. Respect for Your Home: I treat your property with the utmost care. I am naturally tidy and will ensure that food bowls, litter areas, and play spaces remain clean and organized. I leave your home exactly as I found it—if not better. Safety & Security: I am diligent about home security. I double-check that all doors and gates are locked, alarms are set, and your pet is safely settled before I leave. I am also mindful of household hazards, ensuring that "counter-surfers" or curious chewers stay out of trouble. Privacy & Professionalism: Your privacy is a top priority. I am there strictly to care for your pets and will never overstep boundaries or access areas of your home that aren't necessary for their care. Consistent Communication: I am highly reachable and believe in proactive updates. You’ll receive check-ins and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and your home is in good hands. I focus exclusively on in-home visits and walks, ensuring your pets stay comfortable in their own familiar environment while you have the confidence that your home is being treated with professional respect.
“Therese was great! We have an older cat with diabetes and thyroid issues and she had just the experience we were looking for to administer his insulin injections and oral medicine, in addition to the regular cat care duties. She was thorough, very communicative, and super friendly. Will definitely book her again!”

Federal Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ben was such an attentive cat sitter to my three boys while I was away. He cleaned up a few messes, picked up medication, and communicated so well. I came home to 3 happy boys with clean bowls, an empty trash, and no weird smells (the dream return home scenario!)

I travel for work and Kristine is my go-to to watch my 10 year old rag doll cat who can be pretty high maintenance at times (kitty ibs). Kristine is quite literally the best and I know that whatever happens Kristine can handle it and keep me posted in a timely manner. You’d be a silly goober to not book with them!
We had a great experience with Noah caring for our 2 dogs Luna and Woody. He did a meet and greet first to learn each dogs individual personalities. Noah communicated well during their visits with updates. He also offered to feed my pet turtles and filled my outdoor bird bath.

Genesis was amazing with my furry baby. She was kind and patient with my little fur baby. He took some warming up and Genesis was able to meet him where he was and provide excellent care. Genesis will be my first choice when needing care for my pup. Thanks again.

Maryann was wonderful. She arrived prepared, notebook in hand, and was incredibly organized. I could tell right away that she was thoughtful, responsible, and genuinely caring. She also fosters (and has “foster failed”) cats and dogs, so it’s clear how much she loves animals. Highly recommend.
