Dog Sitting in Middletown

About: > I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have always loved being around animals. Over the years, I've cared for countless neighbors', friends', and family members' pets, including feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on them while their owners were away. I'm reliable, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I'm also very flexible and happy to work around different schedules and pet care needs. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m a recent college graduate living in Newport with a flexible schedule and availability throughout the week. I’m looking to pick up extra hours doing something I enjoy, which is spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs a walk or drop-in visit, I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide dependable, attentive care.

About: My name is Maria! I have owned and cared for other fur babies for over 40 years. I am also a local business owner and swim coach looking to make some extra money for my many Disney trips! I am a business owner, so I can make my own schedule. This allows me to be flexible with my schedule, so that I can be there for your pet's needs! My standard services include visits in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I also offer overnight care and can be flexible with your schedule as things come up!

“Isabel was so great, she communicated great and took amazing care of our pups. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again!”

About: I graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a degree in Integrative Physiology with the dream of being a veterinarian. I have worked in the veterinary field for the past 6 years working in both small and large animal. Currently, I am a small animal veterinary technician so I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets who need a little extra attention. One of my strengths is reading animal body language, which helps me adjust my approach so pets feel comfortable and at ease. My goal is to make your pet feel like it’s just another normal day at home, keeping their routine consistent and their stress as low as possible while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and will make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Plus, I'll keep you updated so you can always have peace of mind! I currently work in Westport, MA, and have a consistent work schedule with mostly longer shifts during the week (4x a week, usually 8-7pm). While I am working during the day, I am always home in the evenings and fully available for early morning and overnight care. On weekends, I typically work until 1 PM, which leaves me available for early morning (before 7am), afternoon, evening, and overnight pet care. I’m happy to work around schedules and communicate clearly to make sure your pets are always cared for reliably and on time. I provide care in my clients’ homes to ensure pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. While I am not able to board animals in my own home, I am fully comfortable staying overnight at your home and have done so in the past. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and reassurance while you are away. I aim to keep things as stress-free as possible by following your instructions closely and maintaining a calm, consistent environment so your pets feel safe and at home.

“Lindsey was great. Very responsive and happy to help us. Would recommend!”

“Anna was on time, showed great communication, and took amazing care of our 3 animals. We wanted to go shopping and have a nice lunch however our kitten just had surgery and needed to be observed closely. Anna kept close eye on him and send photos! Will for sure be using her again.”

About: Prepared for all dogs large and small. I have experience with puppies and seniors, large and small breeds. My entire life I've had dogs; Golden Retrievers, Yorkshire Terriers, multiple mutts, Siberian Huskies. I have a lot of experience with high energy dogs and understand how important consistent, high impact exercise is for maintaining a calm and happy pet! I'm fully prepared to handle whatever your dog needs. I'm currently working from home and am available for pet walking or drop ins most days whenever needed. I am extremely flexible time and can make adjustments to fit your dogs needs. If caring for a dog in their home, it would always just be me and the dog. I follow all house rules, and am very adaptable to both the needs of the dogs, and dog owners. In terms of walks, I spend so much time on my daily walks with my dog, that I am hyperaware of warning signs from other dogs and am able to avoid any potetial confrontations.

“Lauren is respectful of our house. Our dogs enjoyed spending time with her.”

“My kitty was quite elderly, with some special needs. So when I had a last-minute need for a drop-in visit, I wanted to be extra sure to find someone very reliable, willing to do meds, and very gentle with the kitty. Emily is all that, and more! I would happily call on her again.”

About: My 15 year old golden retriever passed away this past summer, and I am just looking for a way to fill the doggy shaped hole he left in my heart! I love dogs, and staying active so what better way to do both than dog walking/ sitting! I work full time in Providence commuting from Newport, so I’m available after 5pm for walks and visits. Perfect for anyone in need of evening care for their pups! I will stick closely to your pets usual routine so they feel comfortable. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise based on their needs. I keep the home clean and respect the space, and I always send regular updates with photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for!

“Kathy did a wonderful job looking after our Ollie (9 month old American Cocker Spaniel). She is very kind and patient! We enjoyed receiving photos of their visit and Ollie was a happy boy.”

“Angela was so great. Kaiser was not feeling too great so I scheduled Angela very last minute. She was more than accommodating. She gave me details on his activities. She went above and beyond when it came to providing me with details about her visit. I would absolutely recommend her and would use her again if I needed to. Thank you so much Angela!”

Lindsay W.

“This was our second time working with Amber. She is always easy to communicate with and we greatly appreciate the photo updates she sends. We would definitely recommend her!”

Stephanie A.

“Jamie was responsive and nice to the dogs. The house was clean when I got home too. Thank you Jamie!”

Jeff B.

“Erin was great! Seemed to make fast friends with my (somewhat choosey) cat friend and hung around to keep her company beyond brass tacks on visits. Rover doesn't make it easy to filter for folks with experience with injectable meds or diabetes -- We really hit the jackpot!”

About: I have loved taking care of all different types of animals for years and I’ve been trusted to feed, walk, and administer medications when needed. I am currently working part-time and in school studying animal science. I love working with pets and have more then enough time to love on and play with your furry loved one! When watching you furry friends they will be showered with love and treats. They will be walked and able to play in a fenced yard.

About: I’m detail-oriented and observant—cats are subtle, and I notice the small things that matter. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and I’ll flag anything unusual right away. Most importantly, I don’t force interaction. Whether your cat wants playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone reliable to keep their routine steady, I meet them where they are. I have full availability on weekends, which allows for extended visits, longer walks, playtime, and flexible scheduling. During the weekdays, I’m available in the mornings and evenings, making me a great fit for breakfast and dinner feedings, walks, medication schedules, and nighttime check-ins. Because I plan my day intentionally, I’m punctual, dependable, and able to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine—something that helps reduce stress, especially for cats, seniors, and pets who thrive on consistency. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, whether they’re in my home or in a client’s home. I focus on consistency, safety, and individualized attention so pets stay comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions exactly—feeding schedules, walks, litter or potty routines, medications, and any house rules. I keep the environment clean and calm, make sure pets get appropriate exercise or playtime, and monitor their behavior, appetite, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, structured play, and rest time. I introduce pets slowly if others are present, separate when needed, and adjust care based on age, energy level, and temperament. Across all services, I prioritize clear communication, attention to detail, and treating every pet as an individual—not a one-size-fits-all routine.
