About: I'm pretty new to Rover, but I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience with dogs, cats, hedgehogs, fish, and other small pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including seniors, and have experience administering oral medications, handling emergencies, and providing daily exercise and enrichment. I’m happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before services to learn your pet’s routine and ensure they feel comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out, my goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority, and I treat every home with respect—often leaving it a little cleaner than I found it. I am working a part time job during the weekdays, usually the shifts are 11am-4 or 5pm, and on the weekends I work longer shifts which vary in time. However... I have many weeks off here and there so I am free a lot of the time. My job is pretty flexible most of the time so I can leave work to walk your pups and make sure they are okay and then go back to work. My yard has an Invisible Fence for my dogs which works out quite nicely and whenever I have other people's dogs over I make sure to keep them on a leash so no accidents happen. That being said, I live with my parents so I would be more geared towards servicing in home visits and stays with your pets at your home.

Erica has been great! She keeps me updated, has been reliable and gives Luna the attention she needs during her visits. Even with short notice Erica responded quickly and helped make me my life easier. I love the photos she takes and always asks me permission before she gives Luna treats. If you’re in the area I would highly recommend Erica. She’s experienced, reliable and responsible. Everything I’m looking for in a dog sitter/walker/Furend

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, as well as cats and other small pets. I’m attentive, patient, and adaptable to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, or simply companionship and cuddles, I’m dedicated to making sure they feel happy and comfortable. My patience and calm approach are especially helpful when caring for puppies who are still learning routines and senior dogs who may need extra support, gentleness, and attention. I work full-time during the week, which allows me to offer pet care services after 5 PM Monday through Thursday, along with open availability on weekends. I’m also available for overnight care and happy to accommodate special requests, including extended stays and flexible care arrangements whenever possible. I always prioritize safety and comfort while caring for animals. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I supervise pets during walks, playtime, meals, and outdoor time. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and routines, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I live in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home where pets can feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and grew up caring for various breeds, which taught me how to read canine body language and understand different personalities. Beyond a lifetime of personal pet ownership, I also have professional experience working for a local small pet-care business. Through that role, I provided high-quality drop-in cat and dog sitting, daily dog walking, and overnight housesitting. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk, structured routine maintenance during an overnight stay, or just some dedicated playtime and companionship, I am committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away! As a university student studying psychology and kinesiology, my schedule requires a bit of balance, but it also gives me great flexibility! I am available for pet care from Friday to Monday. Because my evenings are adaptable, I am also available for late-night check-ins. I manage my time strictly, ensuring that your pet's feeding, walking, and medication schedules are always met precisely and with plenty of dedicated attention. Safety is my absolute highest priority when caring for your animals. Having grown up with various breeds and worked professionally in pet care, I have a strict rule of keeping all dogs securely leashed whenever they are outside or on walks. I am also fully experienced with crate training and can comfortably crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine. My academic background makes me highly observant of behavior, so you can trust that I will maintain a calm, structured, and completely secure environment for your pet.

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and truly understand how much they mean to a family. I had a dog growing up and have a cat from childhood into my twenties, so caring for pets has always been a part of my daily routine. From walks, playtime, and training reinforcement to litter care, feeding schedules, and lots of cuddles — I’m comfortable and confident with both dogs and cats. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently applying to graduate school for my Master’s in Nursing and working part-time, which has helped me become very organized, responsible, and mindful with my schedule. I plan my days carefully and make sure I have dedicated time set aside for pet visits, walks, feeding, and quality attention. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and spending time with pets is actually a great balance to my academic and work responsibilities. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening care, I make sure each visit is unhurried, attentive, and focused on your pet’s safety and comfort. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and consistent with your pet’s routine. I’m very affectionate and love giving pets the attention they deserve, but I also prioritize safety above everything. I’m attentive to routines, careful with doors and leashes, mindful on walks, and respectful of any specific instructions you provide. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I always aim to create a calm, secure, and loving environment where they feel safe.

About: I can help with simple training, walking them, playing with them, and keeping them company. I can help with their energy and also feed them! I will have another job but I’ll be able to pick up to pet sit whenever I’m available. I’ll be able to do this multiple times a week and help out whenever I can! I can keep them company and make sure they are behaving while also playing with them. I won’t let them chew on furniture but will play with toys with them.

About: Hey, I’m Lucas! I’m from South Kingstown, RI, and I’ve been around animals my whole life. Right now, I live with two dogs, two cats, guinea pigs, and even some reptiles, so I’m pretty used to taking care of a variety of pets. Currently, I’m a full-time security guard supervisor and a full-time student at URI. While my schedule is busy, Rover allows me to combine my love for animals with the flexibility I need to support myself through college. I’m here to do what I love: care for pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walking dogs, playing with cats, or just making sure your pet is comfortable while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’ve had pets all my life, so I understand how important it is for them to get attention and care. I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly) friends and make sure they’re happy while you’re out! I am a full time security guard and student at URI but I can house/pet sit any night from 8pm-8am. I am also happy to do stop ins, and walks in the mornings. I am very experienced with a lot of animals, and all at once. If you need someone who genuinely cares about your babies I’m your guy!!

About: I have had dogs since I was a child. I adopted a Golden Retriever from the South before I married and then adopted another dog (Springer/Brittany mix) from the shelter once I was married. He was the best $25 I ever spent!! He was like my best friend! Then we rescued a German Short Haired Pointer- what a love ! Those boys were very active and required daily runs! I took care of them both until they passed away. When they left us, we rescued two English Setters from Turkey. They are hands down my absolute sweethearts. They are 10 and 12 now. We aren’t running the beach anymore, but we are very happy with long walks in the woods. They are so spoiled - sleep by the fire, sleep in bed with us, sleep in my car- it’s like their crate and they absolutely love to be in it. I also had a cat that I rescued who lived 8 years with us until he passed away and now I have a barn cat. I feed her nightly, but I’m positive I’ve been feeding an opossum for some time! We have met a couple of times- from a distance! I feed her, talk to her nicely and let her be. I have also taken care of my neighbor’s Irish Wolf Hound when my neighbor had long days of doctor appointments in Boston. I am excited to start taking care of cats and dogs for more people. I know what it’s like to need someone you can trust. My pets are like my children! I am obsessed with their well being. I want them to be happy, safe, well fed, exercised and loved all the time!!! I promise to take the best care of your pet and give them all the love they need when you can’t be home. I am very dependable, patient and trustworthy. I was a preschool special education teacher in Providence for 16 years before I became a stay at home mom. My kids are teens now, so have some time to devote to pet care. I'm currently a stay at home mom and I help my parents out as well. I have plenty of time to pop in for walks, bathroom breaks, feeding, playing and giving lots of LOVE to your pet! I will follow your directions "down to a T." I will give your pets lots of love and keep them safe while you are away! I am super trustworthy, dependable, kind and patient.

About: From my childhood Rottweiler, Diamond, to my Yorkie, Coco, I’ve always had an affinity for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Then I became a cat mom at age 21, and fell in love with how funny and independent they are. From a the age of 8, I’ve been trusted to walk, feed, train, bathe, and administer medication. I’ve always had a passion for learning about animal health, behavior and psychology. I pride myself on being very responsible and a natural caretaker. I love making sure my furry friends are happy, healthy, and well fed. But most of all, I love making sure they feel loved and respected. I’m a freelancer and I work from home, so I have open availability for pet care! I’m a morning person, so I can be ready for a walk as early as 6am. It all depends on what you need. I never feed pets table food and I will never bring any toxic foods into your home. I will follow any and all directions given to me regarding safety

About: I have volunteered for years at an animal shelter with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I took multiple training courses at the shelter to be able to work with dogs that may need more care and attention, as well as for those that may be more reactive. I have also owned dogs my entire life and have been tasked numerous times with walking/watching people's dogs! I work remotely so I am able to watch your pet anytime throughout the day, and I am able to walk them anytime as I have more flexibility! I also finish work at 3pm so I am completely open after that time. I am experienced with working with dogs of all temperaments, as well as experienced and trained with walking dogs around other dogs, including more reactive dogs.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Kingston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kingston on Rover is $20.14 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,002 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kingston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kingston stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kingston. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
