“We had Katie stay with our dog Zeke when we were away. We enjoyed meeting her and it was obvious to us that she loves and cares for the animals she sees. Katie was very communicative and responsive when we had questions before, during and after her stay. She sent many pictures that gave us peace of mind that our pup was happy. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I have always had a love for dogs, my family adopted our dog Harley 3 years ago and she is the best. I have had family and friends trust me to walk their dogs and care for them if they are out of town or are unable to. The biggest dog I have walked is a Bernese mountain dog! I am currently a senior year student at URI studying to receive my bachelors in Elementary Education. This fall, I will be student teaching M-W 8:45-3:20 in East Providence. Therefore I am available in the mornings beforehand, late afternoons, and evenings. I have a fenced in backyard where my dog is able to roam freely. I also have a crate that she goes in when I am not home.
“Hayley was great would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs. The entire process was smooth, from her quick and clear communcation to any questions we might have had to the actual stay at our home with our golden retriever. Updates were provided throughout the week we were away with pictures ensuring all was good and he was happy and comfortable while we were away. She even stayed a bit longer than planned with no questions asked, due to our return flight being delayed. Once again nothing but a positive expereince with Hayley and will be sure to use her again in the future!”
“Alicia did an awesome job pet sitting Drax while we were on a trip. She was communicative, sent lots of pictures, took could care of Drax and they had a great time together. Drax looked like he got good exercise and had fun.”
About: I may be new to professional pet sitting, but caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. As a certified yoga instructor, I’m patient, calm, dependable, and attentive to the needs of both people and animals. I also help care for my 92-year-old mother, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, compassion, and attention to detail. I’ve cared for pets belonging to friends and family and understand that every animal has its own personality and routine. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior needing extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, so you can travel with peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m used to creating a calm, consistent routine with feeding, playtime, walks, companionship, and keeping pets comfortable in their own home. As a yoga instructor, I value patience, mindfulness, and being present, which carries over into the care I provide for pets. I believe pets feel most secure when they can stay in their own familiar environment and keep their normal routines. When caring for pets in their home, I will provide a safe, calm, and loving presence while respecting your home and your pet’s needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, maintain feeding and medication schedules, provide companionship and playtime, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved.
About: I have been a dedicated dog owner for the past 8 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior pets. I regularly helped care for my brother’s 16-year-old dog, gaining valuable experience with the extra patience, attention, and support that older dogs require. In addition, I have been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors since high school. I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and loving care so your pet feels comfortable and happy while you’re away. As a PA student, my schedule changes monthly, but I often work only three 12-hour shifts per week. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for pet care during weekdays and weekends. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, medications, or just extra cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of love and attention. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing!
“JL and Daina were super great with our dog, Otis! He was chill and easy to work with for scheduling, very quick to respond to messages. He sent adorable pics for us while we were gone :) We will definitely be booking him again next time we go out of town and can’t bring our sidekick along!”
“Heather was amazing! Communication was excellent and she was so accommodating when our plans changed. One of my dogs is a senior and she stayed with him which was so sweet considering I gave her the option. Even my cats, who usually aren’t super social, took to her from the first meeting. I would absolutely hire her again and would strongly recommend her to anyone! Above and beyond my expectations!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have 3 dogs that I have all trained and they know many tricks. My dog has even had puppies and I helped raise them till they were old enough to find forever homes. I love animals and working with them in any aspect would make my day! I am attending college and I have classes Tuesdays and Thursdays from the morning till about 3 in the afternoon, and one class early Friday mornings. I am available any other time. I will treat your pets like they are my own, with compassion and love. I will respect your homes as well. I will leave the home as tidy as it was when I arrived.
“Shannon was terrific with Rosie. She took on the challenge of insulin shots and handled it like a pro. Regular updates and pictures, she treated Rosie like her own dog. We will be definitely callng Shannon again!!”
“Alexandra was fabulous! I don't think my dog knew the difference between her and me! I felt very comfortable with her in my house and with my sweet pup. She sent lots of pictures and texts. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was very young. I watched my own dog and her siblings as well as neighbors or friends dogs many times. My dog Maggie actually passed away last year so I have plenty experience with senior dog care and puppies as well. Maggie was a medium-large dog and was 14 when she passed we loved her and made her as comfortable as possible until the end. I've also watched friends and neighbors cats as well so I have experience with both pets! I have class most mornings at 8am so i'm up early and I finish class early! I'm available monday, wed, friday at 1 pm and my Sundays and Tuesdays are free so i'm available all day!!! I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space within the home and a good location for frequent walks! I can crate dogs if needed in your home or stay/watch them while outside, whatever needed.
About: I love pets and house keeping and would love to help you with yours! I take pride in offering thorough care to put you at ease when you go away. I look forward to working for you and your pets! I work a part time job that is extremely flexible and allows me to work from home, meaning I can look after your pets in the exact way you want! I can spend as little or as much time as you want with them! I want your pets to feel like they are on vacay with me! I keep to them on their same routine while also giving them a little extra care since you are away. That way they won't be too sad while you are gone.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Narragansett
Grace was great with my dog Brody, she was so flexible and patient with him. She had excellent communication before and sent along photos while Brody was in her care. I trust her and highly recommend her to anyone wanting a warm, friendly, caring sitter in the area!
Thomas was fantastic. He stayed three days and two nights with our dog. He communicated well throughout the time so we were confident our dog was enjoying the time and getting lots of attention. He took great care of the house too. We will be reaching out to request Thomas’s service again.
Erika saved the special anniversary my wife and I had planned. Unfortunately, the dog sitter that was lined up cancelled and left us in a bind. Erika responded to our quest for another sitter and promptly arranged a meet and greet. She was very professional, maintained wonderful correspondence while we were away, plenty of pictures, and a happy dog who had bonded. She is highly recommended.

FAQs for House Sitting - Narragansett
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Narragansett on Rover is $67.71 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Narragansett. 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 Narragansett 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 Narragansett 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 Narragansett 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.

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.
