“Dana is Huck’s home away from home. He’s stayed with her numerous times and always comes home happy and tired. I know he’s in great hands and also comforted that she has a fenced in yard and her dogs to play with. Highly recommend!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“My dog Theo had a great stay with Lindsey! She was very accommodating to his specific needs with leash reactivity and gave him a daily antibiotic that he needed to help fight an infection. She also accepted our request with only a week or so advance notice, this was a life saver for us! She sent daily updates on his food/med schedule, their plans for the day and plenty of photo video updates. She took him to a great beach spot in the local state park. He had a blast! I would absolutely recommend Lindsey for your pet sitting needs!”
“Erica is amazing! She watched our 2.5mo old puppy for the weekend and we can tell he had a great time! She sent us pictures, videos and updates the whole weekend and is so so nice. We highly recommend booking with Erica!”
“Chris and Whitney took wonderful care of our pup. Lots of updates and pictures. She is an anxious girl and was right at home with other dogs to play with. Look forward to booking with them in the future!”
“Karen, Chris, and their family were truly the best of the best when it came to caring for our Sunny while we were away on vacation for a week. It was clear from the start how much love and attention they gave him—he absolutely adored them and their dog! He even whined on the car ride home because he didn’t want to leave, which says everything. Karen provided multiple daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Sunny was throughout the week. We truly can’t recommend them enough and feel so lucky to have found such incredible sitters. Thank you again, Karen, Chris, Abby, Joe, and Charm —Sunny already misses you all so much!”
“Natalia and her husband provided excellent care for Gigi! They were so kind, and provided lots of updates and pictures, which we loved! I wouldn’t hesitate to have Gigi stay with them again (and Archie, of course!!). Thank you so much!! Look forward to seeing you again 🙂”
“Absolutely fantastic experience. We needed a last minute sitter and they were responsive and accommodating. Our doc is skittish but they seemed to make him a part of their family while he was with them. And their dogs are so friendly and cute to pets and people alike. Janay and Antonio will be our fort choice pet sitting from now on!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for the last 15 years and treat each pet as if they were my own. We currently have two dogs- a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Chocolate Labradoodle who love to play and get lots of exercise so your pup will have tons of fun and be safe in our home I am a stay at home mom with two dogs who love to play! My son loves dogs and is very comfortable with animals so we are excited to meet your pup! We absolutely love animals and treat all dogs as our own! We have a fenced in yard and if your dog likes to go for long walks, play, need medical assistance we can accommodate it all with lots of love and hugs!
“Maddy came through for me when I needed a last minute dog sitter over 4th of July weekend and she took excellent care of my 2 dogs. She went above and beyond! I'd confidently leave Charlie and Rota in her care again.”
About: I’ve pet sat with my moms business since I was about 10, and over 18 years have taken care of many animals. I love to play with the animals, my goal is that when I’m rehired the come to the door to greet me to play with them. I work part time and can do mornings and overnights before and after work. I also get breaks on shifts that I can stop in and visit. I cannot do my own home, but can take care of the animals at their home where they’re more comfortable. Besides just feeding them, walking them or taking them out, it’s important to play with them and keep them entertained. Which always entertains me.
“Ollie had another great stay with “Aunt” Jean. She takes care of him as though he were her own pet and sends us regular updates. It’s so nice to know he is well taken care of and in good hands when we have to travel.”
“Ziara watched our golden for us for one night while visiting Cape May NJ. She was great in communicating and sending us pics of our baby. I would highly recommend her. We would use her again if ever down there. Thank you Ziara🤠”
“Tara provided a great experience for Penny when she boarded. She was very attentive, kept her current on her medications and sent along pictures to keep her mom satisfied she was in good hands!”
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have taken care of all different breads and sizes. I can handle large/strong dogs as well as puppies that need extra attention. We have kids and our own dog (Beira, the Scottish Terrier) so I know how important good, easy care is. As well as patience and attention. I am available during most days for quick care and walks built around school and kid activities. I have my own car and can make the trips or even transport if needed. Overnight care can be discussed as I'm open to it under a week long. I am flexible enough to meet your pet care needs. Basic walks and play, feeding, medicine distribution, and anything else you need. I myself am active so playing isn't an issue or even giving baths.
“Celina was wonderful. She made Maui's time with her and her pup Smokey, so great. Big yard, plenty of room to run and snuggle time when inside. She also made it easier to leave Maui with her wonderful personality and openess to let Maui do things on her timetable. She was very good at sharing photos and videos of Maui's time with her. I will use her services whenever I have to step out of town and not have to worry about my little pupper.”
“Flexible drop off and pick up time, her home is perfect for dog sitting. My pup came home very enthusiastic and slept very well. He also enjoyed the interaction with other well behaved dogs. I'm happy to find a dependable sitter nearby for future needs.”
“I have come to rely on Leanne and Michael to take great care of my dog(s) when I go out of town. They get great care and lots of attention. I feel fortunate to have found them.”
“Ashley was great! She was quick to respond to our request for her services. Our dog Tessa stayed with her for 4 nights and seemed very content there. We received many updates with pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Newport is $55

Jennifer was a wonderful sitter for Leo! ♥️ Leo is often a little restless his first night away from us, and Jennifer slept with Leo on the couch to calm him down. She was also very responsive and communicative — we appreciated all the updates and photos. We are grateful Jennifer took such good care of Leo so that we could take a trip to visit one of our (human) sons! ☺️☺️
Lillian was incredibly friendly, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about our dog’s well-being. Our dog is older and ended up getting sick while staying with her, and she handled everything exceptionally well. She kept us updated, was attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and properly cared for. That level of responsibility and compassion meant a lot to us. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Theresa took amazing care of our boxer! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. She went on plenty of walks, got lots of attention, and we received wonderful updates showing all the fun she was having. Theresa is incredibly kind, genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and her responsiveness is outstanding. We always felt completely at ease knowing our pup was safe, happy, and well-loved. Highly recommend Theresa!
We cannot recommend Kolby enough! We dropped the ball on arranging care for our dog, Penny during our wedding weekend. Not only did we need someone to watch Penny, but also needed someone to bring her to our venue, as she was an important part of our wedding ceremony. On very short notice, we found Kolby through Rover, and she exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she loves dogs and makes them feel safe and at home. She went above and beyond to care for Penny, kept us updated with daily photos, and ensured everything went smoothly on our big day. Thanks to Kolby, Penny was happy, cared for, and our wedding went off without a hitch!

There are 717 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Newport. About 90% of Newport sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 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.
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
