“Hayley is great! She showed up on time and took good care of my little pup who needs a little extra time to warm up to people. Hayley is kind and patient with her and puts her at ease.”
“Shannon has been walking our German Shepard for a few years and is so responsive, flexible, and knowledgeable, especially with our alarm system and use of prong collar for walking. She always gives great updates, and our dog loves her so much! Highly recommend Shannon!”
About: I've had at least one dog in my house since I was in first grade. My first dog is no longer with us however, I currently have a 9-year-old black lab and a 7-month-old silver lab. My dogs love to go on hiking trails, and with your permission, I can also take your dog to new locations. I unfortunately don't have experience with other people's dogs except for friends and family. I'm currently working part-time, so I'm very flexible with times. I will put my dogs' needs first, however, making sure I have time to give them the exercise and attention they deserve. My dogs are my best friends. I always show love and respect towards them. I also understand how a dog's life can be boring sometimes. Giving them a new environment to sniff out creates a happy and exhausted pup. I try to take my older dog on a new walk/hike every week to give them an adventure and something to look forward to. I'm hoping to provide the same for your dogs. I am also a runner, so I wouldn't mind running alongside your dog. Walking/hiking/running, whatever you prefer.
About: I grew up on a farm and have raised puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my elder dog, so I’m happy to spend time with yours. Looking forward to spending time, walking and playing with your dog, cat, kitten or puppy. I work part time so I’m very flexible and active! I am available to stay with your pet, and give them exercise and lots of attention needed to keep them happy! I am familiar with picky eaters and administering medication if needed.
About: I value the care of all my pet sitting clients and have clients who have been with me for over 10 years. I have availability for some new clients and a great background in care from attending vet tech school. Feel free to contact me! I have very flexible availability due to working for myself managing an equine facility. I take great pride in the level of care i offer! I offer care of every level needed for your furry friends! I have many references along with 20 years experience pet sitting. From puppies and kittens to rabbits and dogs of all sizes I have experience pet sitting all!
About: I was raised with black labs and now have a 4 year old golden retriever. I love to help and make new friends! I am happy to visit, walk, or board to assist in any way I can. I am in nursing school and using lots of walking as a study opportunity. When home, my dog would love company while I study! My program allows for a lot of self discipline with allows me to cultivate a busy but flexible schedule. I live on a large, open field property. It is not fenced in, but I have a long leash lead that can be used. My house has an abundance of dog toys and comfy places to rest!
About: Hi, I’m Reagan! I’m a dog trainer based in Newport with nine years of professional pet care experience, and I’ve been around dogs quite literally since birth. My own dog, Wrecker, is a Malinois mix, so if your dog is strong on leash, has very big feelings about squirrels, or needs a little extra room when another dog passes, I’m more than comfortable with that! I work with dogs of all ages, breeds, and energy levels, from puppies figuring out the leash to seniors who like to read every tree on the block. I’ll give a shy dog time to warm up, and I’m just as happy spending time with an easygoing dog who wants a good sniff and some company. In other words, dog? Yes, please. On walks, I’ll use the cues your dog already knows and choose a route and pace that suit them. For drop-ins, I’ll stick to their usual routine, whether that’s dinner and a potty break or a game of fetch. When I house sit, I’ll keep the little things familiar, right down to how your dog settles in at night. I work part-time and plan my week ahead, so we’ll talk through the timing and how much company your dog needs before we book. I’ll send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. Dog care is already part of my everyday routine. I work part-time and plan my week ahead, so I’m happy to set up regular walks or drop-ins and take one-time bookings when I have room. Tell me what timing works best for your dog, especially if they have a set mealtime or potty schedule. For house sitting, we’ll talk through when I’ll be there and any time I’d need to step out before we book. I know how much trust it takes to hand someone your keys and your dog’s leash. I’ll check that their gear is secure before we head out, give them space around distractions when they need it, and double-check that your home is locked when I leave. I’m easy to reach through Rover, and I’ll ask what kind of updates you like, whether that’s a quick check-in or a few photos and videos. If your dog seems off or something unexpected comes up, I’ll reach out promptly. You’ll also get a route map in your Rover Card after walks. If you use a pet camera in a common area, I’m comfortable with that. Just give me a heads-up before we book.
About: Hi! My name is Nikki, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and giving lots of love and attention. I’m responsible, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s daily care or just some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to provide consistent and reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in someone’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust above all else. I respect your space as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels calm, comfortable, and secure in their environment. I follow all care instructions closely, keep things tidy, and ensure your pet sticks to their routine. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is not only safe, but also genuinely cared for and loved in your absence.
“Isis was very professional and helped walk our dog Reba 3 days. My dog is very timid but Isis did not disappoint, she helped us out so much! Communication was also top notch and I really appreciate that. Thanks Isis! Will be booking you again in the future!”
About: I have experience professionally dog walking, pet sitting, and experience taking care of cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, exotic birds, and chickens. Pets are our family and I am prepared to treat them as such! I will make sure that your furry (or feathery) friends are well taken care of, loved, and safe while with me, whether it be a housesit, drop in visit, or walk. No requests are too much! I know we all want the best service for our pets and I am prepared to give that :) since I am now on summer break, I am fully flexible. Since I am new to this app I have lots of room for new clients, but availability will narrow with time! I am experienced in larger dogs along with many cats, and therefore I am able to provide adequate playtime, attention, food, and positive interactions with both species.
“Toria has treated my Rex like one of her own. Was thrilled to find such a kind, caring and communicative person to care for Rex when my vacation schedule became too busy and complicated to include him. Toria was flexible With my changing plans, communicated clearly and was dependable. Could not ask for more.”
About: From the day I was born, I was living with animals. I grew up with 2 cats from birth who I loved and cared for young. We grew our family to two more cats and 3 more dogs over the next 28 years providing a nurturing environment for all. I own rental properties and and all my earned income is freelance so I’m very flexible when it comes to providing times to fill your needs! Every animal is different and I’m fully capable of adapting to all of your pet’s unique needs. My first priority is catering to your pet to provide the living experience they have every day with your family!
About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. As a teenager I fostered dogs of all ages and sizes with my mother, from litters of puppies to energetic rascals to oldies slowing down. Since I was a baby my house always had at least one cat, sometimes up to 5 at a time, and our house was where the neighborhood knew to bring any cats that were found needing help. I have had cats with special needs, and three big black shelter lab mixes. As an adult I have developed a hobby interest in dog training, and I know how much structure, clear communication, and strong leadership can help put a dog at ease and keep them safe. I love all animals and volunteered for 4 years in wildlife rehabilitation. I also offer pet portraits! When we do a meet and greet, I can show you some physical samples of my work. You can also check out my photo gallery for some photos of the pet portraits! I'm moving back to Rhode Island and taking on small jobs as I establish my schedule and routine, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for immediate requests! I have my own car, so I can easily come to your home for home stay, drop-ins, and walks! My family dogs were crate trained, so I understand routines of crating, feeding, taking out, etc. I am also comfortable with different types of leads, such as harnesses, gentle leads, prong collars, and soft and hard muzzles. I have also taken care of dogs who have specialty needs, such as indoor litter boxes, doggy diapers, and specialty diets. I have administered oral medication, in both pill and liquid form, to both cats and dogs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Isabelle was terrific with Arny! We really needed help getting Arny more exercise after we welcomed twins into our life a few months ago. He is a high energy pup and now comes home after every walk tired and happy. Arny also has some special behaviors that need help managing. He can be very interested in squirrels and bunnies and has some leash anxiety around other dogs, and we have complete trust in Isabelle to manage and keep Arny and others safe. We would highly recommend Isabelle to anyone looking for someone reliable that they can trust to walk their pup!!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Kingston is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Kingston. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Kingston after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kingston. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
