About: I am a life-long animal lover with 7+ years experience as a veterinary technician and boarding kennel attendant. I have pretty much seen it all when it comes to pet care! Along with my experience in taking care of other’s beloved pets (feeding, walking, training, play times), I am also able to administer any type of medications (oral, topical, injections) and am confident in taking care of pets with any medical needs, especially senior dogs. Being a kennel attendant and vet tech, I know that so many dogs struggle with anxiety, especially when they’re separated from their owners. I have lots of experience with these kinds of dogs and can assure your fur baby will feel safe and comfortable with me. I genuinely just love spending my free time with animals of all shapes and sizes, and making sure they have the best experience while under my care. Consider me for any of your pet care needs! I am an independent contractor, therefore my schedule is very flexible. My partner primarily works from home, so there is always someone home to look after your pet. We are a very active couple who loves going for walks, visiting dog parks, swimming, jogging, hiking, etc. Your pet will have potty breaks every 1-2 hours to ensure their comfort. We are open to dog boarding or day care in our home. We are also open to dog walking. We have a small fenced in yard behind our apartment, which makes potty breaks a breeze. We have a 5 year old Aussiedoodle who loves other dogs. We are always keeping a close on your pets when they are getting acquainted and for feedings. They are allowed on the furniture. We have multiple dog beds, no crates necessary if your dog is house trained.
“Kate was great! She was available last minute and watched our pup longer than originally planned. She had healthy tasty snacks for the pup and was very kind and friendly with us as well. We will definitely call her next time we are in Newport!”
“Colleen treated Lucy wonderfully and we will definitely be asking her again to help out! She was responsive, flexible with our schedule, and consistently updated us throughout the day with lots of photos. It was obvious from the beginning she really loves her furry clientele… would highly recommend Colleen for your next pup needs!”
“Maddy was so great! Our dog was very comfortable with her. She knew we were super busy so she offered to come pick him up and drop him off. We were so thankful. We highly recommend her!”
“Jan was an excellent dog sitter! She made us feel comfortable with leaving our Mochi for a few hours after coming in from another state. She recognized to Mochi’s quirks and knew when to give her space and let Mochi get used to the surroundings. Highly recommend and will definitely use Jan again the next time we are in the area.”

About: I have been a foster for Save-A-Lab animal rescue for many years, caring for puppies, young dogs, older dogs (and challenging dogs) in my home for days/weeks/months at a time. I have two of my own dogs (10yo Lab/hound mix and 2yo Lab/Great Dane mix) that get on well with other animals and welcome them into our home. I have older children (age range 16-23) who also love dogs/animals and are very helpful when we have them in our home - helping to socialize, walk, feed and train them. I currently work from home and am available through out the day to care for, socialize, exercise, feed, play with and love on your dog! I have a large back yard (not fenced) and my two dogs are trained not to leave it (which is helpful when new dogs are with them as they tend to follow them). I can leash dogs for play/bathroom breaks in my yard when necessary. We live near the beach so I am able to walk dogs in my neighborhood, on the rocks near the water or on the beach - whichever is most enjoyable and accessible for each animal. I am home with my pets during the day and spend lots of time with them outside and on walks and daily excursions around our neighborhood.

She was very flexible with scheduling which was awesome. Her great communication made me feel so comfortable with Brody staying with her for a long stay and I couldnt recommend her more!!!
Kelly was wonderful: prompt in her responses to my questions, and warm and friendly when we dropped our dog off with her for the day. It's obvious she knows and cares a lot about dogs--she immediately bonded with mine. She sent pics during the day and gave him lots of TLC while my husband and I were away. We could not have asked for a better dog-sitter!
I recommend Grace! Her communication was exceptional before and during our pup’s stay. Our pup had such a good time - as could be seen in the many pictures shared throughout her stay. Hera is a high energy GSP and she came home well exercised and happy. Thanks, Grace!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Newport on Rover is $43.29 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Newport commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in RI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 463 sitters in Newport, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
