“We were so comfortable to go away on an 8-day vacation after meeting with Kyla. She was able to come over each day and give our cat some company, feeding/water, and most importantly give him the 3 pills for a heart condition. We received updates while away and Kyla was responsive to us when setting up the booking and while we were away.”
“Jacey was amazing! She was always on time, very thorough during the check ins, and so sweet! Our cat Willow loved her and we will definitely be booking with her again :)”

“Jacqueline was absolutely phenomenal! She took such good care of all of our pets. She was incredibly flexible with working around both of our work schedules and made it work. All of our pets were very well taken care, we will most definitely use Jacqueline again and recommend her to all of our friends in the future”

“Heather was absolutely amazing! Our senior cat recently started on insulin shots twice a day and we were nervous about leaving him. We were put at ease as soon as we met Heather. She came twice a day promptly at the times he needed his meds and cared for him as if he was her own pet! We got updates and photos at each visit and it seems like our old kitty fell into a nice, relaxed routine with her😊. She did an amazing job keeping his days as “normal” as possible for him and she went way above and beyond keeping his entire space (and ours) tidy. I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute to use Heather’s services again when we travel. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and with my pet. Thank you!”


About: Ive been taking care of animals for a long time, Ive sat big and small dogs and cats. I also love giving them all the love they deserve. I work part-time during the week but can still work during the week, I am free all weekends but some days I will have track meets I play with my pets very regularly and brush their fur, of course feeding them when necessary is important and giving treats when they show good behavior

About: I'm the go to girl for washing up our puppers, and even climbing in the tub just to set them at ease. I go the extra mile to make sure animals are comfortable and happy. I currently have all the freedom to play with your pup, walk them, and care for their needs. So please fill my calendar with puppy play dates! I would like to fully understand the routine the client has for their pet prior to make sure it does not get disrupted and allows the pup to stay at ease.
“Cheryl was easy to work with, and went above and beyond our expectations! She communicated with us contiguously throughout our vacation. We hopefully will be able to work with her again going forward :)”

“Angelisa is so good to our 4 year old Maltipoo. She is so patient, gentle and calming. She knows his routines and our instructions. She is very professional and always on time and stays the whole time scheduled. My family and I are so happy we have her to be there for our little guy when we can’t be.”

“Carley took excellent care of my kitties while I was away for the first time since moving to a new home! She followed my info for feeding, playing etc to the tee and sent lots of photos during her visits. I could tell both my cats were super comfortable with her and were getting lots of love while I was away 🥰”

“Thank you for making the time for Bruno and Jimmy while visiting for summer. Only thing I would have appreciated would be pictures daily and compared to other sitters check in when coming in and out but otherwise seems like Jimmy and Bruno warmed up to Kailey pretty quickly”

About: I've taken care of my own family's dogs since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their pets. I am a nursing student looking to make some cash in a fun way. I currently have tuesday and wednesday afternoons off, all day off on fridays, and weekends off too. I am unavailable Mondays and Thursdays. As a walker I am comfortable applying harnesses/collars and leashes. I can walk as little or as long as you and your dog would like! If you have a fenced in yard I am happy to play fetch, tug, etc. outside. If no fenced in yard, I can play inside or just keep walking!
About: Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I have shared my life with and cared for pets since I was four years old and have worked professionally in pet care for more than 20 years. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs, as well as a wide variety of other animals including rodents, reptiles, llamas, goats, chickens, ducks, and pigs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, senior, or requires medication and extra attention, I am committed to providing patient, individualized care tailored to their unique needs. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My goal is not only to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away, but also to give you peace of mind knowing they are receiving loving, dependable, and attentive care from an experienced professional who genuinely enjoys what she does. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I currently work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays when needed. Because my schedule is flexible, I am able to tailor my visits to your pet’s routine rather than expecting them to adapt to mine. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, multiple daily visits, playtime, medication administration, feeding, litter box care, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand how important consistency is for animals, especially when their families are traveling or working long hours. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while providing plenty of love, attention, and individualized care. I have more than 20 years of professional pet care experience and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your companion is an energetic puppy, a senior dog, a social cat, or a shy feline who prefers a quiet presence, I will care for them with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I would give my own pets. Thank you for considering me to care for your furry family member. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I take the responsibility of caring for your pet very seriously. My goal is always to care for your furry family member as if they were my own, providing dependable, attentive, and loving care while you’re away. I currently offer drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. For dogs, visits can include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, medication administration (when needed), and plenty of attention. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, medication administration, playtime, affection (on their terms!), and whatever individualized care they may need to remain comfortable and happy in their own environment. With more than 20 years of professional pet care experience, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and preferences. I do my best to maintain their normal schedule and reduce any stress while you’re away. I also respect every home I enter. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and professionalism. Other than a happy, well-cared-for pet, you’d never know I was there.
“Brie was a wonderful caretaker for our Maine Coon Kitten. She sent many photos and gave us prompt updates and we felt very reassured that Rex was well looked after and had a fun time.”

“When we needed someone last minute to help us out on the Fourth of July, we struck gold when Molly popped up on Rover. My two high energy pups took to her immediately. I was able to enjoy my holiday getaway knowing that my boys would be well taken care of. Molly took the dogs on a hike, played with them and fed them, and she sent me lots of photos. She was prompt and professional, with excellent communication throughout. Highly recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Smithfield
Heather is a wonderful sitter! I have an anxious dog, and I was nervous about allowing an unfamiliar person to care for her while I was on vacation. I purposely chose Heather due to her experience with anxious dogs, and I am so glad that I did! Heather scheduled a meet and greet prior to caring for her so my dog could become acclimated to her. Due to Heather's calming presence and careful efforts, Tootsie was very calm upon meeting Heather. While I was away, Heather provided thorough information about my dog, which was extremely reassuring. I felt confident that Tootsie was being cared for by someone who I trust. Heather went above and beyond to make Tootsie as comfortable as possible. I will definitely reach out to Heather again should I need someone to care for her.

Ellie was amazing with our cat, who I’m pretty sure was waiting for her to come back when we got home! She was attentive and caring, and offered us thorough updates and lots of photos while we were gone. Highly recommend - we will definitely book her again! Our kitty was very well taken care of 😻

Jackie did a great job with our three cats while we were out of town for our wedding! She was confident, professional, and nice. We would book with her again which says a lot because we are very protective of our pets, and I'm also a pet-sitter on Rover. Thank you, Jackie, for taking care of our kitties for our special day!

Thank you for making the time for Bruno and Jimmy while visiting for summer. Only thing I would have appreciated would be pictures daily and compared to other sitters check in when coming in and out but otherwise seems like Jimmy and Bruno warmed up to Kailey pretty quickly

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Smithfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
