“My pup was happy with Elba. Sent pictures and videos. Gave treats. When I picked him up I could tell that he was happy and liked her. Will be using her services again.”

“Very sweet, very communicative. On time I felt like Anely knew a lot about puppies and my girl had a great day! She was definitely tired when she got home, love that!! Thank you!!”


“Debby was AWESOME! My puppy was in such good hands. She’s very loving, attentive, responsive, friendly, had a lot of experience with dogs, keeps you updated with pictures, and overall genuine. My puppy had such a fun time at her place! Will definitely be booking again :)”


“Qualynda was amazing with our puppy. She watched her for us on very short notice and went above and beyond to care for her and keep us informed. Our girl is pretty timid and was scared at first but warmed up quickly and had a great time. She especially loved running around the big backyard! We will definitely use Qualynda again!”

About: I have always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I am a responsible, patient and attentive person to the needs of each pet. I like to make sure that the dogs are safe, comfortable and receive the affection and attention they deserve. I can help with walks, food, playtime and company while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy caring for pets. I can provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for every pet. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, receive plenty of attention, and are supervised to ensure their safety. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care, just like I would my own.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a calm, loving environment that fits their needs. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have plenty of attention throughout the day—and with a beautiful park right next door, daily walks and outdoor time are part of our regular routine. I genuinely treat every pet like my own, giving them the care, affection, and respect they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I start the day with morning walks (the park next door is perfect for that), and I build in time for play, feeding, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Evenings usually include a final walk and some wind-down time. Whether it’s a short visit or overnight care, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care woven into my day like they’re part of the family. In my home, I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly space where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible—walks, feeding times, play, and rest—to help them settle in easily. I live next to a park, so daily walks and outdoor time are a big part of our day. Pets have full access to cozy spaces, and I’m always nearby since I work from home.
“Baron had a great day with Isabel and her fiancée! Despite him being a slightly anxious pup at times, he seemed to be at ease, relaxed, and enjoying his time. Isabel was very responsive and took very good care of Baron. I will definitely be booking with Isabel again!”
About: Hello my name is Mary-Ann, I live in a single family home with a fully fenced in yard in Cherry Hill Estates in Johnston, RI. I don't leave dogs outside unattended. I’ve been blessed to have dogs for my whole life. I would love to open our home and couch to your fur baby in need of a safe, loving and caring environment. I currently have a fur baby named Buddy who is a Senior Bichon Shih Tzu mix who absolutely loves other dogs. He is very friendly and up to date on all his shots. My husband works from home full-time and I work from home 3 days a week. So, your fur baby won’t be alone. I know Buddy doesn’t like to be alone. I live in a quiet walkable neighborhood which allows us to take leisurely walks and a big fully fenced in back yard. I also have a dog door that leads out into a fully enclosed Dog Pen to access anytime for the potty. Pets are part of our families, and I know it’s important to make them feel comfortable and keep them safe at all times which will give you peace of mind while you are away.

“Keasha was fantastic! I definitely hope to be a repeat customer of hers, for sure. She kept me updated throughout the day and she and her son were so welcoming to my pup, who’s really anxious around new people.”

“Thank you for the TLC Michelle! We will see you again in the next couple of weeks. I’m confident that my fur babies will receive nothing but the best .”

About: I've been around animals my whole life, so taking care of your pets feels pretty natural to me. Whether it's walks with dogs or playtime with cats, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them — and I'll make sure to follow whatever routines and instructions you've set up. I work remotely, so I'm home most of the day and can give your pets plenty of attention without it feeling like a juggling act. Expect regular photo updates, because I know how much it helps to see your furry friend doing well while you're away. Basically — your pet will be in good hands, and you can actually relax knowing that. Working from home and setting my own schedule means your pet isn't an afterthought squeezed between meetings — they're just part of the day, naturally. I love active, social dogs who are up for a good walk or some backyard play — that's my sweet spot. Cats are a different kind of company, and honestly I'm here for it, especially the playful ones who actually want to interact but also those that play hard to get too.

About: I grew up with black lab mixes, having at least one dog in the house all the time. I helped to raise two of the family black lab puppies through 15 years and care for the next generation, a 2 year old black lab/border collie rescue pup, teaching her to sit and lay down. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs over the past few years, learning patience from puppies, strength from sweet old ladies, and the careful nuance that comes with leash aggressive rescues. I now have an adopted a rescue greyhound in the family. She loves new friends but is also perfectly happy cat napping wherever her bed lands. Happy to host or walk, with or without her company. I’m full time at home and so I am free to do breaks and provide limited entertainment between meetings, which are never more than 1.5h. This is the schedule I provide my own pup and would extend to others. I treat them as my own. I prefer to be over communicative with owners if any potential issues arise as well. Greyhounds react particularly poorly to negative feedback and punishment, so patience and focus on pawsitivity (particularly treats) is a standard with me.
About: I LOVE animals! I recently lost my 13 year old soul dog who I’ve had since she was 8 weeks old. I have experience with senior and hospice dogs. I know how hard it is to leave your “kids” with someone new, but I promise to keep them safe, happy and loved. I currently do work but have flexible hours and am able to work from home if needed. I am available weekdays/nights and weekends to watch your “kids” I have a single family home where dogs are allowed on the furniture. I also have a fully fenced in back yard for your pups to play in.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent to a sweet senior terrier I adopted six years ago. Caring for him through his golden years—with all the quirks and health needs that come with age—has given me deep experience and compassion for senior dogs. I understand the extra attention, patience, and love they deserve, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I sit. My partner and I work from home and share the responsibility of caring for each pup. Whether it’s medication time, a midday cuddle, or just keeping a watchful eye, your pet will never feel alone or overlooked. We’re a team when it comes to creating a calm, loving environment for animals. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs a little extra care, we’re here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I currently work from home on Monday and Friday! My boyfriend who lives with me works from home everyday so we always have someone at home! I do not mind coming to the clients home to take care of your pet! I have a dog of my own as well. I live in a condo that has a backyard.
“Another great few days with Ty! She communicates clearly, follows through on all logistics and timelines, and most importantly, cares for Dexter with kindness and diligence. He loves spending time with her!”


“I know I have reviewed rich in the past but he has just continued to be exceptional. He and his wife are so easy and accommodating when I bring Ada to daycare. My work schedule is wonky and I sometimes need to adjust pickup times and are very nice and flexible. Most importantly my pup always trots inside happy and comes home happy! what's better than that? ”

“It was the first time my dog stayed with a sitter. It was also the first time she was around other dogs. I could tell when we met Gary at the meet and greet everything would be fine. His years of experience with dogs helped Luna have a great first time away from home. He provided updates and pictures so I was relaxed knowing everything was going perfectly. I will definitely leave Luna, my golden retriever, with Gary again. He made Luna feel welcome and provided excellent care.”

“Raquel is one of the best dog sitters I have ever used on this app! She was very accommodating when it came to my dog. She even gave me updates throughout the day so I could see how my dog was doing.”

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Anely is incredible! Extremely responsive and transparent. Without prompting, she willingly provided photos and updates during our very first rover experience, taking care of every worry and concern for me and my sweet pup!! Anely is patient, diligent and cares for her four-legged clients like her own.

Qualynda was amazing with our puppy. She watched her for us on very short notice and went above and beyond to care for her and keep us informed. Our girl is pretty timid and was scared at first but warmed up quickly and had a great time. She especially loved running around the big backyard! We will definitely use Qualynda again!

Debby was AWESOME! My puppy was in such good hands. She’s very loving, attentive, responsive, friendly, had a lot of experience with dogs, keeps you updated with pictures, and overall genuine. My puppy had such a fun time at her place! Will definitely be booking again :)

Without a doubt 5 stars! ✨ We were in the area for the weekend and one of the days we had an activity that our dog was not able to come with. Our dog can be strong willed and will take advantage of his size if he thinks he can get away with it. I initially chose Rich/aka Kemba on Rover because his profile pic was with an Akita! Regardless of that, Kemba was the perfect match for Rocky! He sent us some photos of their adventures out and about, and a sweet video walking (with a loose leash, no one was being pulled like a kite!) with a friend's dog. Our drop off and pickup was super smooth. Kemba made a suggestion for our meeting location that made it easy and he delivered Rocky to us at our Airbnb at the end of the afternoon. I felt complete confidence in Kemba's judgement and care with our boy.

Isabel took wonderful care of Dexter this week! We so enjoyed her thoughtful and informative daily updates. She made sure he was comfortable, following his usual daily schedule and fostering positive and playful interactions with her dog Griggs. We are grateful for her proactive and in-depth communication and her timely pickups and dropoffs. She is a dog sitting gem!

Connie took really good care of my dog for the day. He wasn’t acting right (barking and whining constantly), so Connie took him on long walks and communicated VERY well. She tried my suggestions but they didn’t help. This was the first time he has been like this and I couldn’t have asked for a sitter to handle this any better than Connie did. I recommend her to others whole heartedly. Thanks Connie!
