“Recommend 1000%! One of my dogs has extreme anxiety and she does not like many people. Michelle was definitely someone she liked and even allowed her to pet her which is rare. Also, Michelle was so amazing with my 60 pound elderly dog who has trouble walking. She carried her when she needed to be carried. Just overall great experience!”
About: I love working with animals because I can advocate for them as they don’t speak the same language as us. I graduated with a degree in Animal Science and currently work as a veterinary assistant, so I bring both knowledge and hands-on experience to every pet I care for. I’m trained to notice when something may be off whether it’s changes in behavior, appetite, or physical signs and I’m comfortable doing basic checks like gentle palpation. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priority, and I treat every animal like my own. I am available for full-weekend care and Weekday evening visits. Because I work a standard 9–5 schedule during the week, I dedicate my Saturdays and Sundays and weekday evenings to giving your pets my undivided attention! Feel free to reach out though, I can be flexible :) My top priority is providing care that respects both your home and your pet’s established routine. I strictly follow all owner instructions to ensure boundaries are never crossed, as I want both you and your pets to feel completely comfortable and at ease.
About: Hi! :) I would love to assist in caring for your sweet companion. I have not lived life on this earth yet without pets. I currently have three dogs, a corgi, a rat terrier, and a chihuahua around the age of five. Growing up my household contained 6 dogs and 3 cats all of which I’ve been responsible for caring for at one point or another. From chihuahuas to pit bulls to kittens I have experience with them all. Furthermore, in college I fostered puppies for a few months. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, and bathing pets along with anything else you may request for your furry friend! :) I moved to Newport from NYC and while I am looking for a job currently I thought this would be a great way to fill my time. I have full availability. I live in Newport with my partner, two dogs, and a cat. My partner is gone most days as he works at the International Tennis Hall of Fame, our backyard while it doesn’t have grass it is fenced and we tend to leave the back door open so they’re free to roam in and out! I keep a playful and relaxed environment.
“Elizabeth was wonderful with our 2 boisterous dogs! They were very happy to have her mid-day attention while we were out. She was always ontime and the photos she always sent left a smile on my face knowing they weren't home alone all day and stuck inside. We will definitely be calling her in the future. She is very trustworthy and kind. A real dog-lover, skilled at handling big, boisterous dogs.”
About: Hi there! I’ve had both dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is truly something I love. Whether it’s tossing a ball at the park or just hanging out for some cuddle time, I always make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. This my full time job so you pets are my priority. I will make sure they don't feel lonely, get plenty of attention, walks, and of course treats. I am a military veteran and am trustworthy, honest, and punctual! I will always be there if I say i will. Please don't hesitate to contact me.
About: Aside from taking care of my family’s sweet chocolate lab, I have about six years of pet sitting and walking for friends, family and friends of family! I usually watch three sweet rescue pups in Massachusetts- Archie, Gracie and Ollie. I have pet sit for dogs big and small! I also often walk a chunky chocolate lab here in Newport and look forward to walking him every time I part ways with him. Other than pet sitting and walking, I also volunteer at the Potter League for Animals in Middletown, RI where I am usually walking or playing with the rescue dogs or socializing with the cats! I am a psychology student at Salve Regina University where I am currently taking an animal training course where my peers and I go to the Potter League and teach dogs how to sit, stay, lay down, leave it and many other skills! I am passionate about pet care and would love to take care of your fur babies! I am currently a student at Salve Regina University and I have classes Monday-Thursday: 10-10:50 am and 2:30-3:45pm on Monday, Tuesdays and Thursdays 9:30-10:45am and 3:45-5:00pm and Wednesday 1:00-3:30 so I am available any time I am not in class! I watch pets in the comfort of their own home! Unfortunately I would not be able to watch pets in my apartment as my roommate is not a fan of pets.
“Hannah took great care of our two large dogs. I loved receiving lots of photos and detailed updates about each visit. I also appreciated being able to do a meet-and-greet before our trip. We will definitely use Hannah again in the future!”
About: I don’t have any special training but I am very patient, loving, experienced & happy to just hang with your pets!! Can’t wait to meet them! I am a bartender and mainly work nights. So I am free during the day. I also only work about 3/4 days a week, so I have plenty of time to show your pet the proper attention. I have a full fenced in yard. 2 dogs, 1 rescue mix (65lbs) 1 pug/schnauzer mix (23lbs). 2 cats (1 acts like a dog herself) my pets have free roam of the house but I will crate yours if you prefer. I will abide by your rules!
About: I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’m especially patient with senior dogs, making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and never rushed. I also absolutely love puppies and have plenty of patience for their energy, playtime, and little accidents along the way! Whether your dog wants to play, go for a walk, or just cuddle on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule with having classes very spaced out throughout the day. I am able to stop by at almost any time. Since I’m a college student, I’m not able to have pets stay with me in my dorm, but I’m happy to care for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable. I’ll follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles while giving them lots of attention and care. I want every pet to feel safe and loved while their owners are away, and I’m always happy to send updates and pictures!
About: I have two crazy dogs at home that I miss dearly. No dog is too much to handle. I am used to anxiety prone dogs and high energy. I am a student athlete at Salve Regina University so my schedule can be somewhat inconsistent but I have long breaks during my day and most nights free. I will make sure your pets are well loved and taken care of while their owners are away. No boundaries will be pushed or broken
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.
About: I have been a caring and compassionate animal lover for as long as i can remember. Pets have played a major role in my life since I was a child and continue to do so to this day. I currently have a 8 year old very friendly, and very sweet French Bulldog named Violet. My house is very dog friendly and I am available anytime on the weekends and during the week. I am happy to take dogs for walks/runs as needed. I am very reliable and will put your dogs safety and happiness above all else. I have also been known to take some wonderful dog pictures and can provide them during your pets stay or during their walks. I would love to watch your fur baby let’s set up a meet and greet! I’m currently working part time but can provide your pet plenty of time for playing and exercise. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me I have a large yard close to walking trails. I will make sure your dog is provided with plenty of exercise and stimulation during our time together.
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, and I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and pets with unique personalities. I have my own 8-year-old chow-shepherd mix, so daily long walks, patience, and attentive care are already a huge part of my routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of slower pacing, medication routines, mobility awareness, and extra comfort and patience. Whether your pet loves active walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply calm companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, observant, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and caring for my own dog every day. I genuinely enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving animals attention and care, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I truly look forward to. I adapt my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, giving medicine, potty breaks, check-ins, cuddle time, or simply providing calm companionship, I’m happy to do it all! I know how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions closely while giving every animal plenty of attention, patience, and care.
“Heath did an amazing job watching our pups! I have 3 dogs and one is a senior dog with mobility issues. All the dogs were happy and well taken care of. Heath was also very communicative, and punctual with all the drop in times. We will absolutely book him again for future persisting needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Family and neighbors would always rely on me to watch their pets when they went out of town. I work full-time. So when I’m watching your pet, I will be gone from 9 to 4 and Gus will be with me at all times. If I need to come back midday to let the pup out that can be arranged. Just let me know! Gus is my pal. He’s my right hand. He will be with me when we take care of care of your pet! He’s a 1y/o beagle mix. Loves to play and gets along with everyone very relaxed and chill. Gus and I will stay at your home. Walks in the morning and evening. Photos and communication as much as you prefer.

We were happy to meet Matt today. He spent lots of time time playing with Lola, asked great questions about her care, and listened to all of my concerns. Our pup can run anxious and he made her feel at ease. We are looking forward to having him back for sure.

She was always ontime and the photos she always sent left a smile on my face knowing they weren't home alone all day and stuck inside. We will definitely be calling her in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Kingstown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,092 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Kingstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Kingstown. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
