About: Before moving back to Newport County, I was an avid pet sitter in Cambridge, MA and the Boston area. I was a regular sitter for multiple families. This included dogs, puppies, cats, guinea pigs, birds, bunnies, fish, and many more. I helped families work with rescues that were diagnosed with anxiety from previous traumas to assure the dog would feel comfortable in his/her new home. I have experience administering medication and bringing comfort to your dog. I have worked with dogs of all sizes. I am available on short notice, and am very active, so I can make sure that your pet gets the exercise he/she needs. I am an avid animal lover and I am very reliable, dependent, and kind pet sitter. It would be my pleasure to work with you and your pets! I currently split my time between Narragansett and Newport! I work full-time at Salve Regina University. I am available before 8am, typically after 5-6 pm weekdays, and during my lunch break for home visits near the university. Weekends have more flexibility! I take clients on Aquidneck Island, Jamestown, Narragansett, Wakefield, and other nearby locations. I am unable to pet sit at my residence, however, I am available for pet sitting at your home. I have a car, so I am able to bring dogs to great dog parks, long walks, hiking trails, etc., based on your needs.
“I felt very confident that Sassy would be well taken care of at Nadias and she was. I will definitely use her again in the future. She was very communicative sent pictures. Best of all I think Sassy had a ball. She enjoyed playing w/Nadia's 2 dogs. And she loved having Nadia's kids to play with also. She has a big beautiful back yard for the dogs to play in. I highly recommend Nadia.”
“What a wonderful place for my pooch! Other pooped to play with and a very caring and competent sitter for Weibo. I highly recommend Devorat to anyone needing a safe and fun place for their dog,”
“Superb! Mary was very welcoming to my dog and provided her lots of affectionate attention during her visit. Additionally, Mary was very accomodating to my schedule which was very helpful. I highly recommend Mary!!”
“First time client, and have nothing but good things to say. At drop off, I was able to go inside with Jameson and get him settled in. She was very attentive to Jameson. Everytime I would reach out she would answer promptly and send pictures checking in. Pickup was easy, quick no issues. Highly recommend and plan on booking again in the future!”
“Cathleen takes such wonderful care of Ollie! We never have to worry when he’s with her, and it’s clear how much she loves and looks after him. He always comes home happy and is already looking forward to his next stay!”
“David was extremely responsive to my questions and concerns even before I dropped off Bean. She is a lovebug but can be nervous. I was a little bit worried about dropping her off with someone she didn’t know for an overnight but David sent me a video of their walk soon after I left and she was very happy. I got more pictures of her smuggling on the couch and knew the only problem would be making her leave to come home with me. I’m happy to have found David and it’s worth the 25 minute drive from Providence. He has a big fenced yard and beautiful neighborhood.”
“Hannah was sooo good to Seamus. He had a great 3 day stay, and her communication with me, while on our vacation, was terrific. We would highly recommend Hannah to anyone.”
About: Huge pet lover since age 10! I started watching dogs in college and fell in love with it. I have also watched friends and families pets multiple times throughout my life. Whether it’s a playful pup needing a daily walk or a quiet bunny requiring gentle handling, i am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of each pet. I pride myself on creating a safe and loving environment giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in good hands! I work fully remote during the day meaning i will always be around to make sure your pet is fully attended to and taking all breaks needed. I have multiple fenced-in dog parks where I live and a great backyard if you would like your pet to have some outdoor play time. I am also opened to scheduling meet and greets before accepting a booking and can’t wait to meet!
“Where do I even start. Honestly Ty is absolute amazing and great with my Toby. I was so nervous leaving him for over a week to go on vacation. But the amazing pictures that somehow look professionally taken that she would send me and the updates of how he was doing, made me feel he was in great hands. He always looked happy and content and that's all I can ask for. She was so sweet and I can tell from the first meet. She truly made Toby feel at home, even allowed him to sleep with her in bed. Toby also made to new BFF. He was so taken by her 2 kids and they were so sweet with him. Let just say Toby couldn't get enough of all the loving. When I picked him up he was still trying to play and give them kisses. Ty I can't thank you and your family enough. I'm grateful and I will definitely use your services again if available. I know Toby will be in good hands.”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Another perfect stay with Sarah. Sarah always provides lots of photos and updates everyday. She and Rex took great care of Cooper and Black. We look forward to booking with Sarah again!”
“Donald did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! He was responsible, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Our dog was happy, well-fed, and relaxed when we got back — a true sign that he was in great hands. Donald kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’re so grateful for his care and would absolutely trust him to watch our dog again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Savannah was very kind, she sent lots of photo updates, and was super flexible with us during our travels. She is our new go-to dog sitter for when we go away. Thanks Savannah!”

She has a wonderful home and a big yard, along with a 4 year old who is lovely with pets. Highly recommend boarding with Alana!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newport
Jennifer watched our dog, Riggs, over our wedding weekend in Newport, and I truly don’t know how we would have managed having him be part of our wedding without her! She was incredibly helpful and flexible throughout the entire planning process and weekend. We had friends coordinating drop-off and pick-up with her, and on our wedding day, Riggs came to our ceremony and Jennifer even picked him up from the venue afterward. She made what could have been a complicated weekend so easy and stress-free. She was so kind, patient, and sweet with Riggs, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was with her. We would absolutely reach out to Jennifer again anytime we need someone to watch Riggs in Newport. Highly recommend!
Kolby is hands down the best pet sitter you could hope to find. From our meet-and-greet, I sensed Ben would be in great hands. She has a wonderful setup with a fenced yard and a welcoming, spacious, tidy home. Scout is the sweetest, most playful, well-mannered companion. You can immediately see how much Kolby genuinely loves and understands dogs. Ben's stay with Kolby and Scout somehow exceeded my already high expectations. Kolby treated him like one of her own, with plenty of exercise, playtime with both dogs and people, enrichment, snuggles, and love. I mentioned being worried about the heat, and she made homemade frozen treats for the dogs. She proactively sent thoughtful daily updates with lots of photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Kolby and I joked about how Ben was at summer camp, but it truly was that. He didn't have an adequate stay, he had an enriching stay. When I picked Ben up, he was happy to see me... then immediately ran back to keep playing with Scout. Ben came home happy, relaxed, and honestly better behaved than when I dropped him off. I couldn't ask for a better experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to trust Kolby with him again. If you're considering booking with her, do it, you and your dog will be so glad you did.
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.
William did an awesome job with our dog Honcho! Honcho is a Blue Heeler so that means a little quirky and a lot of exercise needed. William handled him super well! He updated us with photos and texts about what they ere up to. Easy to communicate with, responsive. Honestly we were being satisfied. Thanks William!
