“We are beyond thrilled with the exceptional care Bri provided for our French bulldog, Theodore. From the moment we met, it was clear that Bri is passionate about animals and highly professional. During our time away, Bri went above and beyond in every aspect. She stayed in our home, keeping everything spotless and well-maintained. Her frequent and detailed communication gave us peace of mind, knowing that our beloved Theodore was in the best hands. We received regular updates and adorable photos, which made us feel connected and reassured. Bri not only met but exceeded all our expectations. She followed all care instructions meticulously and showed genuine affection and attention to Theodore. It’s evident that Bri has a special touch with pets, and we returned to a very happy and well-cared-for dog. We highly recommend Bri to anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter.”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have been caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Beyond pet sitting, I’ve worked at an SPCA and at a zoo, where I gained hands-on experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals. I also study animals professionally, so understanding animal behavior and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood is something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable with animals of all personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m a graduate student with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m generally available for dog walks in the mornings and evenings, and I have flexibility during the day depending on my class and research schedule. I’m also available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care! I live on the top floor of a house with plenty of space for pets to relax and a small yard for some outdoor time. I also have a very friendly cat who loves dogs and other animals, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a multi-animal home.

“I don't even know where to begin with how wonderful Ariel is! She took amazing care of our handful of a dog for 4 days while we were away and went above and beyond! She was very respectful of our home, which she offered to stay over to give our dog more company. She was very informative and communicating with me about everything from his feeding, bathroom breaks, and hours so would come and go. She asked great questions and genuinely cared about caring for our dog and interacting with him. I would highly recommend using Ariel for your pet sitting needs. I hope to be able to have her watch our dog again before the end of summer. 5+ stars for Ariel!”

“Nicole was absolutely amazing! She was so detailed and thoughtful in her communication with us, and I felt so comforted knowing that she was looking after our pups. She also helped us out when we had a last minute travel delay & came to check on our dogs on short notice. Truly the best! Will definitely be rebooking!”

“Outstanding! Daily pictures and updates. Spent hours actively engaged with Athena (the 80# gsd) each day. She was healthy and happy on our return. We (the people) were able to relax and enjoy our trip with any worry. Xinwei is and kind, gentle person, and Athena loved him from the very first meeting. We returned to find the house cleaner than when we left it! Additionally, he is a fantastic communicator and I recommend him without any concerns at all!”

“Elena was punctual, dependable, an easy communicator, along with being the best, loving animal sitter. My kitty and pup were safe and sound and happy when I returned home. I feel she is super trustworthy too and felt comfortable with her in my home. I would pick her every time.”

Amy A.

“Nadia was super nice and mindful with max’s needs. She and her entire family took care of max during Christmas and made him feel welcome (he has separation anxiety). She sent me constant updates with pictures and videos and even asked for detailed instructions before dropping max. I will definitely book Nadia for max in the future. She’s the best dog sitter.”

“I felt very relieved knowing I could trust Savannah with my cats. She did a great job taking care of them. I received pictures and updates daily. I would recommend Savannah to anyone who has special fur babies. The next time I plan a vacation, Savannah will be one of the first people I'll call.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends’ pets since I was 13. I love animals, and have had added experience working with senior dogs within the last few years as my own little ones are in their golden years! I am currently in grad school, so my availability can fluctuate monthly. I am typically available on weekends and week nights, but depending on the week/month I can be available during some week days as well. My apartment complex has plenty of grassy areas and our own fenced in dog park! The complex is also located in a very suburban area with plenty of quiet streets to go on walks. Your pet’s safety is my priority, and whether I go to them or they come to me, I will make sure they’re safe (and also feel safe)!

“Julia is absolutely fantastic! She took wonderful care of our two dogs, taking them for walks, playing with them in the yard, and giving them lots of cuddles. And she sent us photographs of all. She’s also a great housesitter, who made us feel secure with our home in her hands. Don’t hesitate to book Julia! She’s the best.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, and for the past several years I’ve specialized in seniors and small, medium breeds, including my own 11-year-old Yorkie with heart and airway conditions. I’m confident with medications, gentle routines, and multi-day stays, and I currently sit regularly for repeat clients in Providence. I run my own practice from home, so my schedule is flexible and pets are rarely alone. My days are built around routine, morning walks, midday breaks, and calm evenings. Guest dogs join my daily rhythm naturally, with consistent feeding times, multiple walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day In my home, I host one guest at a time in a calm, quiet space with supervised indoor time and secure, leashed walks. In your home, I follow your routines, feeding times, medications, and house rules. I always start with a meet and greet, keep dogs leashed or secured at all times, and send regular photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing.

“Jada was excellent with my dogs. This was my first time using Rover services so I was a bit nervous not knowing what to expect. I set up a meetiNg date prior to hiring Jada. She answered my questions and we both felt like good match . She was respectful, communicative and on time. Sent me photos of the dogs with updates. My dogs really loved her. I would recommend her services and will contact her again.”

“Sophie was awesome and we for sure plan on booking her again!!! We have an two elderly animals (dog and cat) and she did a phenomenal job with all of the pills, extra potty breaks and attention to their needs. Our dog Zoe was sick right before Sophie came and we felt 100% comfortable with Sophie's care that put us at ease while we were away (which is hard to do with our babies when they are sick). She was flexible with new things that came up for Zoe and was available to adjust her schedule for Zoe's needs. Sophie's communication was perfect with updates and she was very tidy and respectful of our space! Thanks again Sophie!”

Bridget & Lauren M.

“Marie is an outstanding and caring pet sitter, very responsive and attentive, spends quality time with your pet while providing updates and pictures for your peace of mind. I highly recommend her and will be using her services in the future for sure!”

About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.

“Heath stayed at my house to care for my cats and was incredible! Fantastic communication throughout the time I was gone with amazing pictures. Heath not only tolerated my complicated instructions but even created a spreadsheet to keep track of everything. I had a few extra things pop up that needed to be done, and Heath was very flexible and helpful.”

“Julia helped us out last minute when we couldn't find anyone to stay with our dogs overnight. She was great! She communicated with us and took good care of our 2 goldendoodles. Would definitely hire her again!”

“Molly is an outstanding dog and house sitter! She made herself available with short notice on our end and was very attentive to our Chocolate Lab Hope. Molly walked her confidently (Hopey can be leash reactive), and followed all of our care routines. As she is a Vet Tech, she even noticed Hopey’s ear needed cleaning and did it for us! The house was immaculate when we returned a few days later and Hopey can’t wait for Molly to cuddle, play and hang out with her again! Thank you, Molly!!!”

“Sam was absolutely awesome taking care of my Dixie and Tobi. She stayed in my house for 11 days with them and they loved her. She is caring and pays very close attention to detail. I highly recommend Sam. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of my babies.”
