Dog Sitting North Kingstown

About: Hii! I volunteered at shelters but I preferred building a relationship with pets in Rhode Island :) I grew up around many dogs and cats. A fun challenge was when we adopted our German Shepherd puppy! Training him was a fun challenge, but it was harder (yet more rewarding) when we adopted his brother as well! Now they’re grown and trained but I can still see the little puppy they are in their eyes! I also have a senior dog that needs extra care, but I love making sure she’s comfy and gets her massages. I work a hybrid 9-5, so I can make time mornings and evenings for pet care. On my work from home days I am more flexible to do care during the day. Weekends are fully available! In your home I would make sure pets are in their designated areas and can’t escape! Cleanliness is the largest thing I would keep in mind while making sure your pet is comfortable!

About: I have 7 years of adult experience, by this I mean actual dog sitting and raising my own pup. However, since I can remember, I have always been comfortable with dogs. I was 9 when my family got our first dog (a boxer!) and since then I always found myself falling into some form of a caretaker role. Of course when you grow up and get your own dog you realize how easy you had it when it was the family dog. By raising and training my own dog, Roo, I have learned more about patience, unconditional love and responsibilities than I thought possible. In college I would dog and house sit for families here and there, usually for weekends at a time so I am comfortable being in YOUR space with your pets for more than just drop ins. Along with being a dog mom, I am a plant mom and will happily care for your plant babies too! Starting on 5/12/25 I’m beginning a new full time job that requires me to be in office (Coventry) M-F 8am - 4:30pm. I will update my schedule frequently to show availability once I switch to a hybrid schedule. On the days I can work from home I will I have the flexibility to be with a dog 24/7. I am an early riser and will gladly do the needful in those scary morning hours. I am a home body and don’t typically go out for long periods of time on the weekends. I will ALWAYS make sure there is water for the dog and I fully understand adhering to strict eating rules and schedules. My own dog has a super sensitive stomach, so I will take all food instructions with the utmost seriousness. I’m not the spoil-my-child-rotten type, however, my dog is allowed on all furniture (outside of tick season) and is given at least 3 sessions of fetch or a walk daily. I will respect your home rules even if they differ from my own.

About: I have taken care of and grown up around dogs and cats my entire life. Patience and learning the pets personality is, in my opinion, the most important aspect of pet care. I treat every pet like they are my own, with kindness and respect! I look forward to meeting your pet! I just moved back to Newport from NYC and am looking to fill my time. I am currently between jobs, so I thought what better time than now to focus on another passion of mine, pet care! I will treat your pet with care and comfort they require. I am very communicative and ensure updates to you, as I know putting your trust in someone to care for your pet can be stressful. I want to make any visits or walks with your pet as low stress as possible, for both you and your pet! Trust is very important with a pet and getting to know them is my main goal.

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. As a teenager I fostered dogs of all ages and sizes with my mother, from litters of puppies to energetic rascals to oldies slowing down. Since I was a baby my house always had at least one cat, sometimes up to 5 at a time, and our house was where the neighborhood knew to bring any cats that were found needing help. I have had cats with special needs, and three big black shelter lab mixes. As an adult I have developed a hobby interest in dog training, and I know how much structure, clear communication, and strong leadership can help put a dog at ease and keep them safe. I love all animals and volunteered for 4 years in wildlife rehabilitation. I also offer pet portraits! When we do a meet and greet, I can show you some physical samples of my work. You can also check out my photo gallery for some photos of the pet portraits! I'm moving back to Rhode Island and taking on small jobs as I establish my schedule and routine, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for immediate requests! I have my own car, so I can easily come to your home for home stay, drop-ins, and walks! My family dogs were crate trained, so I understand routines of crating, feeding, taking out, etc. I am also comfortable with different types of leads, such as harnesses, gentle leads, prong collars, and soft and hard muzzles. I have also taken care of dogs who have specialty needs, such as indoor litter boxes, doggy diapers, and specialty diets. I have administered oral medication, in both pill and liquid form, to both cats and dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of and owned many pets and have volunteered with an adoption agency as well to help dogs to find their forever homes I work a changing schedule that is very flexible and I love squeezing in as much time with your pets as possible! Message me to come up with the best care plan together! I Will respect any persons home and their rules for their dogs. I enjoy playing and cuddling with all dogs and keeping the active ones busy!

About: I value the care of all my pet sitting clients and have clients who have been with me for over 10 years. I have availability for some new clients and a great background in care from attending vet tech school. Feel free to contact me! I have very flexible availability due to working for myself managing an equine facility. I take great pride in the level of care i offer! I offer care of every level needed for your furry friends! I have many references along with 20 years experience pet sitting. From puppies and kittens to rabbits and dogs of all sizes I have experience pet sitting all!

About: Hi, I’m Isabel! I love making sure every pup in my care feels right at home. My husband, Shawn, works fully remotely, and our dog-savvy 10-year-old son loves having furry friends around. We have two dog-friendly rescues, Stevie and Griggs, who are also happy to welcome visiting pups into our home. Stevie was actually a former client who became family, so we know firsthand how special these bonds can be! When your dog stays with us, they become part of our everyday routines. From walks and playtime to simply relaxing together at home, we want every pup to feel comfortable, included, and loved. Think of it as a little staycation with plenty of companionship and a home away from home. We’d love to meet you and your pup! Reach out to schedule a meet and greet so we can get to know each other and see if we’re a good fit. I’m currently working part-time and I go for long walks daily, so I have plenty of time to provide care for your beloved animal friends! I believe pets are family members; anytime I visit a home, I’m a guest of the pet as well! While you’re away (out of town or at work) I’ll make sure that your pet is comfortable at home!

“I was worried about booking through Rover but am so glad I did! She accommodated my last minute booking when the family friend sitter fell through. Sarah did a great job with my very high maintenance dog. She sent me pictures and kept me updated the whole time. My dog needed a special anal gland treat because of her health issues and Sarah was patient and kind giving it to her. Unfortunately, my dog has accidents often but Sarah was understanding and cleaned it up. I seriously think my floor is cleaner now than it was before.”

About: Since childhood, I’ve had a deep love for animals and have always treated every pet as if they were my own. I believe all pets deserve the same love and care they so generously give to us. However, I am very understanding that each pet is unique in their own personality. As a proud dog mom to two very special but different pups—one being a rescue from the meat trade in South Korea—I’ve gained valuable experience in recognizing stressors and triggers in dogs that may be more reactive. I approach each pet with patience, understanding, and proactive care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at peace. Just because an animal has had a difficult past doesn’t mean that sets the trajectory of their future. I am a small business owner which means I have an extremely flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they ultimately deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I can adjust to your needs to ensure your furry friends are happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I prioritize consistency and routine so pets feel comfortable and cared for in every visit! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust. I create a warm, stress-free environment where pets feel secure, loved, and at ease. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their space, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles to keep them happy and safe. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who can provide companionship and extra playtime for pets in my home. For pets who prefer to be alone, I have plenty of space to ensure their comfort and relaxation.

“Jay is kind and took good care of our Penny during the Drop In. Thank you Jay!”

“I connected last minute with a Gary after my scheduled petsitter cancelled the day before my vacation. It worked out great. Gary was engaged and provided pictures each day. He took great care of my cats and definitely won them over. I would not hesitate to recommend Gary as well as use his petsitting service again in the future. Thanks Gary!!!”

About: Hi! I’m Shadya. I have experience caring for pets through pet sitting and from having pets of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while in my care. I’m currently studying Veterinary Technology and I’m also certified in Cat & Dog First Aid. I know every pet is different, so I’m always happy to follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m currently in college, but I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s usual routine. I always do my best to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while they’re in my care! I’m happy to follow their usual routines, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or any instructions you leave. I also understand that every pet has their own personality, so I’m patient and always make sure they get the care and attention they need.

About: I have taken care of my pets for years, mainly cats, but I have experience with dogs as well. Either way, I love both the same! I am able to administer medications, follow diet guidelines, and take care of accidents that may occur. And most of all, I can provide a cuddle or snuggle and unconditional love for your fur baby or babies! I currently have a part time job, but will be able to take care of animals full time soon! For now I can take care of animals Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I have one cat at the moment, I have helped to take care of him along with my parents for over 11 years. In recent years, as he ages, he has needed more medications which I have helped to administer, he is on a special diet and he also has some tummy troubles occasionally that I have helped to clean up. I also had a second cat that I took care of at the same time who needed a lot more care. He was a small, sensitive Siamese who was extremely overbred and who suffered from a lot of stomach issues. The two cats didn’t get along so the Siamese ended up living mainly in my room and our other cat had the run of the house since he had arrived in the family first.

“Fantastic experience! Very responsive and did a great job making our pup feel loved while we were away. Would love to use her services again if available.”

About: I've taken care of my dog for 10 years with the rest of my family. As well as taking dog sitting for other pets, have done overnight and just check ups. Very flexible, can walk or look after your pet almost every day of the week this summer. Can also do almost any hour of the day. I can't keep pets at my current apartment. But if I did I would make sure they have enough bathroom breaks throughout the day and are well fed and hydrated! I would make sure your dog is always accounted for and I am ready for anything!
