“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.”
“Kyla was great with Miller. She sent constant updates with pictures through his stay and when I picked him up, he didn’t want to leave. Debated on sending this review since I don’t want others taking away from Miller’s time with Kyla and her family.”
“Keasha was a stellar pet sitter to Milo my Yorkshire Terrier she provided such TLC to him while I was away. She checked in with me daily on him eating, drinking and walking. Keasha gave me such peace of mind.”
“This was our first time leaving our Dog Brady with some one else and for over a week. Bethany made the entire process easy. She was very friendly, we did an initial meet n greet months before our trip. She sent pictures everyday of Brady, lounging walking or chilling with her son. It felt great to know that he was being loved while we were away.”
“We had a great experience with Nick. He is super helpful, flexible, and easy communicate with, and sent daily photos and a video of our little dog. He has a great house and yard for the dogs to run around in, and two super friendly dogs of his own. Artemis came back happy, tired, and very well cared for!”
“Rhody always has a great time with Jessica and Abu. It's difficult leaving him as he gets older and Jessica is the only one we trust. She loves him like her own and takes such good care of him. Thanks to her we are able to travel knowing he's in the best hands. Always a 5 star experience!”
“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!”
“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Ashley was great! She was quick to respond to our request for her services. Our dog Tessa stayed with her for 4 nights and seemed very content there. We received many updates with pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
“He was perfect taking care of the dogs. Lucy and Mack were thrilled to have him. They were a little scared in the beginning but Misael made them very calm by the time we came back. We got so many photos and we are so appreciative of his care!”
“Julie took such great care of my puppy! The day before leaving, my pup got a stomach bug so she said it was no problem and administered his medications perfectly and made sure my trip could still happen. She sent plenty of updates and made sure my dog was active everyday once he was feeling better!! Would definitely recommend Julie to take care of your dog!”
“Another great stay with Ty and her family! They are so kind and thoughtful in the care they show our Teddy. We are very grateful to have such responsible dogsitters!”
“Natasha was amazing, I was extremely on the edge as my stay was a longer stay.She ensured my dog was comfortable and followed up and provided daily updates.I will soon be rebooking. So glad I found her. Thanks a ton Natasha.”
“Elba was amazing, she was always available and provided multiple updates throughout the day regarding our Beagle Blue, he was so happy with her and so well taken care of, we will definitely book again with Elba”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany and her family caring for our sweet boy, Warren. From the very first conversation, we felt completely at ease. Brittany is warm, communicative, and incredibly attentive — the kind of person who genuinely treats your dog like part of her own family. Throughout Warren’s stay, we received thoughtful updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us he was not only safe but truly happy. It was clear he was getting lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. Brittany’s home felt like a calm, welcoming environment, and her family embraced Warren as if he’d always belonged there. What really stood out was the level of personal care. Brittany paid attention to his quirks and the small details that helped him feel comfortable, like a comfy couch and soft blankets. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well-cared for, and honestly looked like he had just come back from his own little vacation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving to care for your dog, Brittany and her family are truly exceptional. We’re so grateful we found them — Warren can’t wait for his next stay! 🐾💕”
“Suzanne and her family were absolutely wonderful with Archie. He suffers from separation anxiety when first meeting new people but Suzanne made sure he felt at home in no time. He got a lot of play time and car rides too! Suzanne sent us photos and provided great updates. When we arrived to collect him he was so happy and relaxed and ran back to her kids to say goodby a couple of times. He was a happy dog and I know he will love to go back. Her location is perfect for our random trips to Uncasville and Rhode Island, and Suzanne will be our "go-to first choice for sitter for any future trips!”
“Thank you for letting Hooper be a part of your family for 4 days. Based on pick up, he seemed very comfortable and relaxed which was awesome to see. It was obvious you took great care of him! Thank you again and hope to utilize your services again soon!”
“I have boarded our pet labradoodle with Vignesh mutiple times, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, he exceeded my expectations and provided top-notch care for my pet. First and foremost, his responsiveness was remarkable. When I initially reached out to inquire about his services, he replied promptly and provided all the information I needed. His communication was clear, friendly, and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the stay, he demonstrated exceptional reliability and followed the care instructions meticulously. I felt confident knowing that my pet was in capable hands and receiving the attention and care she needed. Vignesh also kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which was greatly appreciated and reassured me that everything was going smoothly. His genuine love for animals is very evident from the get-go. Overall, my experience with Vignesh was fantastic, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to any pet owner in need of reliable and caring pet sitting. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for future pet care needs. Thank you, Vignesh, for taking such wonderful care of our Jaanu!”

As of November 2026, there are 1,059 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Foster. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Foster can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Foster home-away-from-home, we recommend 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.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Foster.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Foster. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Foster sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
