Isabel is so sweet! She helped me last minute and also accommodated a virtual meet and greet for me. I had a repair man in my apartment while I was away and she voluntarily stayed to keep an eye on things and give my cat more loving. Thank you Isabel!!

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.

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!

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!

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’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.

About: Have 10+ years of caring for dogs. I have had three for 5 years and then 2 for the last 5, and have two more with me while at college. Dog lover, super responsible, dog's care comes first. I also have a vehicle and can transport dogs if there is an emergency.

I could not be happier with the service Madison provided. I came home from a three day trip to a very happy and stress free German Shepard. Madison did exactly what she promised and really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. I highly recommend and will use in the future. Thank You again.
