“Very reliable, professional, and genuinely nice caretakers. It was my pup’s first time away for a weekend and you could tell she had an absolute blast. Leanne was in contact with me regularly and sent a TON of pics. My puppy was clearly happy, well taken care of, and tired at the end of each day from so much fun. I’ll absolutely rebook with them in the future and highly recommend them.”
“Guss had a great time with Devorat, who sent us a number of great videos and photos of Guss having a good time with other friendly dogs in her backyard. Would happily go back!”
“Brianna was so helpful in arranging Lucy's week long stay and Lucy had a great time! I appreciated all the pics she sent throughout the stay as well. We will use her again!”
“Barbara was extremely sweet with my dog and made him feel right at home. She was extremely responsive and sent updates and pictures of how he was doing! Would definitely book again.”
“Boa took excellent care of Oskar our 6lb chihuahua, and sent a constant supply of photos which gave us peace of mind while we were away from our little guy. It was a bonus that Boa also has a chihuahua to hang out with. Would definitely recommend!”
“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!”
“Stephanie took great care of our two mini schnauzers for a weekend stay this summer. They are high-energy dogs and she provided them with plenty of outdoor exercise including walks and trips to the beach. I could tell by the many photos she sent us that they were very happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Stephanie and hope to use her again in the future. A+++!!”
“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.”
“Danielle was fantastic! She suggested meeting up before our trip so that we could meet and Pretzel could get familiar with her house, which I really appreciated. She was super communicative while we were away and sent lots of photos and videos. Our dog was all smiles in every picture; I could tell they were having a blast together. 10/10 would recommend Danielle and I absolutely plan on contacting her again the next time we go away.”
“Eliza did a great job of catsitting my two kittens; she provided regular photo and video updates and was available to answer questions. My kittens had a lovely time with her!”
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 .
“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!”
“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.”
“Jessica did such a great job taking care of my toy poodle. She sent lots of picture of my dog while I was away and he looked so happy in every single one of them. Jessica was very attentive, she always replied fast to my messages. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy to take care of their pets.”

Karen was very easy to communicate with before and during my elderly dog Louie's stay. She really knows dogs, is kind and thoughtful. I received photos of Louie doing different things at different times of the day. She made sure that his comfort at her house, and with his usual routines was consistent. She's a very cool lady and I recommend her.
Cathleen and her husband are our favorite part of vacationing. We know our dog Bailey is in such good hands, and we love how adoring Cathy is! She might love our dog more than we do ;) Her fenced in yard is top notch as well, offering great and safe play time for our pup while we’re gone. Thank you, Cathy! You always put our mind as ease and give Bailey a wonderful vacation!
This was our first time leaving Lucy with Natalia for 10 days with Natalia. Lucy did great and Natalia kept us updated daily with pictures and let us know how she was doing. We felt very comfortable leaving Lucy with Natalia in her home and she looked like she and Archie got along great. We would not hesitate to leave her with Natalia again!
Alexa is wonderful - you can tell she adores animals and our dog Archie loved her and her husband too! She was available for a last minute request when another Rover sitter cancelled and was graciously willing to have Archie stay for another couple of hours when our travel plans got delayed. If you need a sweet, responsive, responsible, easy to work with person for your pet, book her ! ❤️
Armitage took great care of my 2 dogs for a week. We got photos everyday and plenty of updates that they were doing well. Armitage also washed our dog’s beds before we picked them up, which was not expected! I felt very confident they were in good hands while we were away!
If I could rate Jessica higher than a 5, I would! Prior to last week, we had never boarded Rylee before so we were nervous to say the least. Leaving Rylee in the care of someone else for a week while we were out of the country weighed heavily on our minds. Jessica not only alleviated those concerns but went above and beyond to ensure Rylee was adequately cared for. The updates, including photos, every day kept us at ease knowing that our girl was receiving the normal care. Not only that, but Rylee made two new friends - Apu and Mocha 🙂 I cannot recommend Jessica enough!
Wonderful experience!! Our pug is our world and get worried about her with her pug myelopathy. They were great with her and sent TONS of photos and updates throughout our trip❤️ It made it so we could enjoy our trip and know she was in great hands. Thank you for taking great care of our Zo ☺️
We loved having Jacqueline babysit our babygirl Reba!! Reba loves her and her whole family. She had so much fun!! It’s so awesome knowing your sitter is having lots of fun with your dog versus simply just caring for them! And all of the photos she sent me were so sweet and helped me while I was missing my pup 🥹💗 10000/10 would recommended and will be using her for doggy sitting in the future 😊🙏🏻
Marilyn was tremendous! She did a great job watching my dog Charlie and I could tell he was very well cared for during his stay with her. She was flexible, communicative, and sent plenty of pictures to show how much fun she and Charlie were having. Will definitely book with Marilyn again in the future!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hillsgrove is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $64 per night. 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.

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 Hillsgrove 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 Hillsgrove 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 Hillsgrove.
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 Hillsgrove. 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 Hillsgrove 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.
