“Jayla accommodated our last minute request. Great communication throughout the days we were away and lots of fun pictures for our peace of mind. We will be looking to book with Jayla again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends’ pets since I was 13. I love animals, and have had added experience working with senior dogs within the last few years as my own little ones are in their golden years! I am currently in grad school, so my availability can fluctuate monthly. I am typically available on weekends and week nights, but depending on the week/month I can be available during some week days as well. My apartment complex has plenty of grassy areas and our own fenced in dog park! The complex is also located in a very suburban area with plenty of quiet streets to go on walks. Your pet’s safety is my priority, and whether I go to them or they come to me, I will make sure they’re safe (and also feel safe)!
“Patricia is truly a wonderful person and a real dog whisperer! My 2-year-old Bagel can be a little nervous around strangers, but she knew exactly how to read him and quickly win him over. Within minutes of meeting her, he was chasing her around and playing fetch! It’s clear she knows how to make dogs feel comfortable, which made leaving him in her care so much easier and gave me peace of mind while I was away. Patricia stayed at my house to look after Bagel, making him comfortable in his own home while I was away, and I did not have any worries in absence because I knew he was in great hands. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust to care for him, and I really appreciate how easy and stress-free she made the whole experience with constant updates. I can’t recommend Patricia enough to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about their pets!”
About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.
“Zoe was amazing! We had a last minute need for 10 days for our golden retriever and she cared for Rosie like her own dog. She’s delightful, trustworthy, and capable. We’re so happy we met her.”
“Bri was amazing with our senior dog who was confused and grouchy. Our dog had not been away from us in over a year and was quite upset, but Bri handled it with professionalism and grace! Thank you Bri!”
“We are so grateful that Jen cared for our dog Rhea during our recent trip. She spent a lot of time during the meet and greet getting to know us and our dog, and even came on a short walk with us to see how Rhea did on her leash. She was adaptable to her unique needs including Rheas health conditions and medications. Thank you so much for your wonderful care!”
“Sophie was awesome and we for sure plan on booking her again!!! We have an two elderly animals (dog and cat) and she did a phenomenal job with all of the pills, extra potty breaks and attention to their needs. Our dog Zoe was sick right before Sophie came and we felt 100% comfortable with Sophie's care that put us at ease while we were away (which is hard to do with our babies when they are sick). She was flexible with new things that came up for Zoe and was available to adjust her schedule for Zoe's needs. Sophie's communication was perfect with updates and she was very tidy and respectful of our space! Thanks again Sophie!”
“Emma was amazing. She took such great care of the pets and house. The videos and photos were so nice to receive and I knew my dog and cats were in good hands.”
“Anya was wonderful and our dogs loved her. She did a great job ensuring they were well taken care of and loved. She helped take care of things around the house and sent pictures and updates while we were away. Would 100% recommend her.”
“Katie was great! She took good care of Koda while I was out of town and everything went smoothly. She was easy to communicate with and sent a few pictures and updates throughout my trip, which I appreciated. I’d definitely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!”
“Kaitlyn is super communicative, thinks about how to make the experience the best it possibly can be for your pet, and sends tons of photos and updates to make sure you know your pet is in the best hands possible and is happy and taken care of! It’s obvious Kaitlyn enjoys caring for pets and that this means more to her than just a job!”
“Elena was punctual, dependable, an easy communicator, along with being the best, loving animal sitter. My kitty and pup were safe and sound and happy when I returned home. I feel she is super trustworthy too and felt comfortable with her in my home. I would pick her every time.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. They have always had a special place in heart. I’ve had all different types of animals and my sister is a vet so she has taught me some little things. I am currently working a part time job and I’m about to leave for college and need some extra hours. I don’t mind if it’s miles or just down the street. I personally don’t care if I have to go in someone’s house just want their stuff to be out so I don’t have to go through there stuff.
“Julia was an incredible house sitter for our 3 critters at a short moment's notice for a five day stay. She's responsible, communicative and even helped me with a few things while I was gone (helping with the plumber and a FBMP sale). All of the animals seem healthy and happy and she left my house super neat and clean, just as I left it. Thanks for all your work, Julia!”
“Shannon was excellent with our two dogs. They have very different needs and she was intuitive and attentive with both of them. They got A LOT of attention and exercise. I felt confident that our pups were loved and cared for. Grateful!”
“Nadia was super nice and mindful with max’s needs. She and her entire family took care of max during Christmas and made him feel welcome (he has separation anxiety). She sent me constant updates with pictures and videos and even asked for detailed instructions before dropping max. I will definitely book Nadia for max in the future. She’s the best dog sitter.”
“Kayla was amazing! She went above and beyond for our pup. We were out of the country for a week and we’re able to have a worry-free vacation because she was so communicative! Sent picture and updates. We could tell she really loved and cared for our pup! Highly recommend!”
“Julia was absolutely amazing with our fur baby Geralt! She stayed at our home with him during our trip and we came back to a totally spotless home. We could tell that she loved him like one of her own and totally spoiled him. We could not have asked for a better experience and could not recommend Julia enough!”

JL house sit for 7days while I was abroad. He took the utmost care with Angus and my home. JL sent me daily updates, pictures and video. I am so happy our paths crossed. I would highly recommend JL. 5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Thank you, JL, for taking great care of my fella! Until next time.
Cailey was great with my furbaby. She put in a very long day when I had a wedding to go to and stayed the entire time without complaint, playing with her, walking her and feeding her. She continually left me photos and updated me on how she was doing. My furbaby loved her. Thank you Cailey!!
Amanda was great with my anxious pitty mix who is aggressive with other dogs. She was very communicative and scheduled a meet n greet on short notice. She asked lots of questions and made sure she was prepared for the overnight stay at our place. Highly recommend!
Zoe went above and beyond what we could have ever been expected of a pet sitter - one of our cats unfortunately started having seizures for the first time in his life the second day we were away on our eight day vacation. Zoe brought him to the emergency vet for us, picked him up two days later, and administered anti-seizure meds three times a days for the remainder of our vacation. In addition to this, Zoe took excellent care of our other pets and sent us pictures daily. She was attentive, responsive, and took care of all of our babies as if they were her own. Do yourself and your pets a favor and book Zoe for your next pet sitting needs.
Rena not only made Kobe feel comfortable in evenings where he was feeling the thunder scaries but she also had some of the best communication I have experienced from a sitter. Throughout all visits, I got updates and she always followed up on my requests. Thanks for taking good care of my sweet bubba!
Harper was so good with our two dogs! Wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Great, clear, quick communication which makes everything less stressful. She was adaptable to our changing schedule. Sent us pictures and most importantly the dogs seemed calm and unstressed.
Anya was fantastic. She is the first sitter willing to take the time to meet our senior dog before our trip (she spent an hour) and showed no fear of her potentially aggressive behavior. Anya was patient and kind. She sent us regular updates while we were away, asked questions to ensure she was doing right by our dog and gave us a complete rundown when we returned. Our dog has a seizure disorder and this did not concern Anya one bit. We are already scheduled for Anya to come back in another month. Because of Anya, we were able to spend valuable time with family that we would not have been able to do otherwise.
We’re so happy to have found Noah. We have two older cats that are more like dogs in terms of their need for humans and a blind kitten who’s never been left for any extended time. We met with Noah and he helped us to determine the right timing/visits. He gave us daily updates, pics, and videos showing how clearly happy our babies were with their caregiver. That made it so much easier to enjoy our trip, gone was any anxiety about them being alone for a long weekend. There’s no doubt we’ll be booking Noah for future trips.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Providence walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Providence maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Providence choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
