“Jenna took excellent care of my cat Voodoo while I was away. She spent time with him daily and saw that he was well fed and kept him company. She is pleasant and professional. I would be happy to employ her again.”
“Julia was amazing! She was so communicative and we got home to a happy and healthy pup (and a 100% clean apartment!) I could tell she was spending a lot of time with our buddy and really appreciated her attention and support. Would absolutely book again!”
“Leesha was amazing with our pups. She kept us updated and sent just the right amount of pictures to show they were doing well and well cared for. Ace my rottweiler is not good with stranger's but he immediately loved Leesha which put my family at ease as this was our biggest concern using Rover for the first time and leaving our dogs with a stranger.”
“Aelish was wonderful with our pups! She communicated quickly, took great care of our house and animals, and went above and beyond in many ways (watering our plants, cleaning, etc.). She was our first rover experience and we will be using her for all of our house sitting needs moving forward. We get uneasy being out of town leaving our animals and with Aelish we are completely confident our babies are in great hands!”
About: I have been taking care of my own dog since I was 12 years old. I have recently started dog sitting for others in the last 2-3 years. I have the most experience with medium to large sized dogs and have no issues with the small dogs as well! I love to take the dogs I watch for walks/hikes around the area (if they are able to). I have experience with up to two dogs at a time as well as senior-aged dogs. I work in the public schools during the school year, but during the summer I am free much more often to take care of all your pet needs. I am available most weekdays and weekends for house sitting, dog walking or just stopped-in services for potty breaks. I have been actively dog sitting for 3-4 years now. I take the utmost care of your pets as well as your home! I will make sure to leave your home in the same state or better than it was when I entered your home. I know how important pets and animals can be and I can 100% be trusted with your animals and your home!
“Sam is wonderful and it's clear she really loves animals. When she arrives at the house she gets down on the floor immediately to greet the dogs and, for me, that's the best sign of a "dog person". She did a great job sitting for our three small dogs for a long weekend. She sent lots of photos and videos, gave medicine to our senior's on schedule, had to wrangle two that hate the snow (and she had to shovel!), and left the house spotless. We already have her booked for another stay! We trust her completely and highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve worked with 6 small puppies, raised a springer spaniel and schnauzer, so I understand hyper breeds and terriers well. I’ve been dog sitting large dogs, and hairless cats. I have experience with high maintenance pets with special needs. I have a lot of patience for your big or little fur baby if it’s a puppy and I’m happy to help with exercise. I go on long hikes and take dogs when allowed on epic adventures for their mental and physical health ☺️🫶 I’m working on real estate properties and art projects so my availability is flexible. I have availability it adjust my schedule around the days I care for pets. I usually block out days where my time is fully committed on a pet or project I will walk regularly when home, happy to take to the dog park, help socialize and exercise. Depending on your dogs needs, I can easily accommodate.
“Emily is a fantastic pet sitter! She shows a genuine love for animals with her gentle spirit. Emily communicated with me throughout my trip so I knew the pets were doing well and we dealt with minor issues that came up. I was very concerned to use a pet sitter, but had no choice for this trip and Emily put me at ease. She really loved and cared for my pets. I highly recommend Emily!”
“Britney was fantastic! She was communicative and sent daily pics while we were away. We came home to two very happy and tired dogs. We will definitely use Britney again!”
“Carissa took excellent care of our two cats! Sent daily photos and texts which is so reassuring! She even put down ice melt for us when we got snow. Highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

I have a fenced in yard and can crate or contain your dog if needed in my home to make sure it is safe and happy.
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and helping out with friends’ and family members’ pets. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like walks, feeding, playtime, and basic training reinforcement. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and energy level and do my best to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. my dog struggles with anxiety, so I also have some experience dealing with that. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility and availability for pet care. I’m available on weekends and typically have flexibility with my scheduling during typical working hours (9-5) to care for your pet! I’m happy to work around your pets normal routine for walks, feeding, playtime and check ins. I treat pets like I treat my own, with patience, consistency, and close attention. I carefully follow any instructions you leave, keep pets secure on walks or in the home, and check in if I have any questions. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first.

About: I'm a lifelong pet caregiver with over 10 years of daily, hands-on experience. From childhood, my home included dogs and cats and caring for them has been part of my everyday life. Not just feeding and exercise, but understanding personalities, the importance of routines and individual needs. I'm the pet parent of 3 French Bulldogs whom I've raised from puppyhood. They are now 10 months, 10 years and my eldest just passed the 🌈 bridge. Raising them has given me extensive experience across all life stages. From energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring daily medications, extra patience and care. Because of this, I have advanced experience in the unique needs and care of brachycephalic breeds, including breathing and temperature sensitivities, appropriate exercise levels and age-related health needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide constant supervision (if necessary), flexibility and plenty of attention throughout the day. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, medication schedules, and specific routines. My own dogs require precise care plans, so I fully understand how important it is that your pet's instructions are followed exactly. Keeping your pet’s routine as close to how it is when they’re home with you is a priority for me. Following familiar routines helps alleviate their stress, build trust and ease into comfort while they are in my care. My dogs are friendly and accustomed to being around other pets. All of my dogs are intact, so I ask that owner's disclose whether their dogs are intact or in heat prior to booking. This allows me to thoughtfully plan and recommend the most appropriate service - such as visits to your home instead of boarding in mine - so everyone remains safe, comfortable and stress free. Pets in my home are welcome on furniture. I use careful management and positive handling techniques to ensure harmony when pets share space. I'm always mindful of body language and prioritize their safety and comfort. When your pet is in my care, you can expect regular photo updates and communication from arrival to departure so you always feel informed and reassured. I take pride in being attentive, reliable and genuinely invested in your pet's well-being! I work from home full-time, so my schedule is very flexible. I can take 2-3 breaks during the work day to walk your pet if they are staying with me, or stop by your home for potty and walk breaks. If they are staying with me for day care or boarding, I can meet your pet where they are in terms of potty, walk, and play breaks, as well as forced nap times, if necessary. I have several ways to manage the space in my home between pets, to ensure everyone is safe, comfortable and happy. I have 3 crates, baby gates, several pet beds and endless toys. Our yard has a fenced in area to ensure safe potty breaks.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,245 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Little Compton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Little Compton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Little Compton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Little Compton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
