“Sarah is an amazing cat sitter! She is very loving and caring and my cats adore her! She send the most beautiful pictures and videos everyday which makes so happy. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Isabel and Shawn were absolutely wonderful with my almost 13-year-old dog that has more energy than sense! They took the great photos of her and I was well assured that she was having the best time. Excellent choice for senior animals. 10/10”
“Matthew took such excellent care of my dog over the weekend, he was attentive and gentle and gave my dog his all the medications that he needed. His love for cavaliers is a plus and I felt at ease leaving my dog under his care. I would easily recommend him for anyone who is looking for a dog sitter.”
“We had a wonderful stay with Keasha and her son, she kept us updated on how our pup was getting on and he seemed to settle in with them with ease. Would highly recommend!”
“Karen made our dog feel right at home and has a perfect fenced in yard that is dedicated to the dogs. Her Lab made the perfect companion to keep our excited pup busy and entertained. Karen also sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with, definitely going to be returning next time we need a sitter!”
“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”
“Boa kept Moose for for the first time and it was for 4 days. He came back home very happy and clearly very well taken care of. Boa also sent wonderful pictures regularly, was very communicative, and just all-around one of the best experiences I have ever had with Rover. I will most definitely be asking Boa to care for Moose again in the future. Thank you! I am so grateful, and it really helps for peace of mind to know Moose is well taken care of when I have to travel for work.”
“Zachary and Max take exceptional care of Rainbow. Rainbow is always so excited when we go there. This is the 2nd time we have booked with him and will do it again. I recommend booking with them.”
“Elba has been nothing but incredible. She has been great at communicating and making sure I know how my dogs are doing. One of my dogs requires a lot of patience after suffering from a traumatic brain injury, Elba has gone above and beyond to meet my dog where she’s at. I’m very grateful and content with the services Elba has provided.”
“Jay and Faith made Sweet Pea’s first hang out so smooth! I’m an anxious human but they made me feel at ease, and I can tell Pea felt very comfortable as well as she spent her time lounging around and relaxing. Definitely a trusted pair dogs, including the special ones that require a little more structure. A++”
“Rebecca was a great host for Dottie! She had her own space to stretch out in and all the toys and comfortable spots she needed. Rebecca was very responsive and accommodating. I would definitely rebook! :)”
“Heather was very easy to work with. She has a great knowledge of animals and their behaviors. I was very comfortable leaving my dog with her, she was very professional. She sent pictures of Mookie and sent me updates so I would not worry. I would recommend Heather and definitely use her again to watch my dog.”
“Gilbert was absolutely amazing with Diesel! We got multiple videos daily of Diesel and Moon running around the yard, playing with each other. We got updates on how he did every day! Diesel was a very happy boy during his stay. We will definitely come back to Gilbert again when we need a sitter for Diesel. ☺️”
“Michelle was so great with my dog, Toby. This was my second time booking with her, and I felt really comfortable that he was in good hands. I got daily updates with pictures and could see that he was being well cared for everyday while I was away. Would definitely book again! 😊”
“Pluto LOVED staying with Marie. She sent many photos and kept me updated on Plutos stay. He was cuddled up in most of the photos and had the best time playing with Marie and her husband. Pluto got so much love and lots of treats during his stay. Pluto will be back to see Marie again soon!!”
“Kaylee seemed to really enjoy her time with Steve and Christine! They took great care of her and handled her meds while we were gone. She was so relaxed, she barely noticed that we had arrived to pick her up.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pawtucket
Alex was so wonderful to work with and Peter truly was not ready to leave when I went to pick him up. She sent tons of updates with photos, was incredibly responsive, and most importantly took great care of our pup. We will absolutely be using her again when we’re in the area!
I had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She was very attentive and caring toward Melo, and she made me feel at ease while we were away. She sent daily photos and videos, which I really appreciated because it allowed us to see how he was doing and gave us peace of mind. She kept us updated and made sure we felt connected to him even while we were apart. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave Melo, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!
Erin took great care of Lily during a four-night stay (and Lily’s first boarding in a good few years). Lily seemed comfortable and settled quickly, and Erin was very accommodating of her particular habits—including adjusting her schedule on the first day so Lily wouldn’t be left alone in an unfamiliar place, and being patient with her reluctance to go very far on walks when I’m away. I received photos and updates during the stay and came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Erin also very kindly brought Lily home at the end of the booking. I’d be very comfortable having Lily stay with her again.
Doris was just wonderful! My sweet Ellie is a senior and needed meds given at multiple times a day, and also needed gentle loving care. I was so worried to leave her! Doris responded to a call and all texts promptly. Many pictures were sent and I truly was able to not worry as much after I left, as I did before I left. Thank you Doris!!
John was fantastic. He was very communicative, detail oriented, and really took the extra step to make sure my dog was happy and taken care of. I could tell he really loves and understands what it means to take care of dogs and I had great peace of mind knowing that my dog was in such good hands.
Ty and her family welcomed our pup Nelly into their home with love and care. We had a relaxing vacation knowing that Nelly was well taken care of. Ty sent adorable pictures and updates and was very responsive and super easy to coordinate with. We’re first time dog owners and it was obvious that Ty was experienced and helped guide us throughout the process. Thank you Ty!
Everything was perfect. Loki had a fantastic weekend with Veronica and Nick. I highly recommend them! They communicated well, sent lots of photos, and were very patient with my questions. This was my first time using Rover, but I felt very safe leaving Loki with them and will definitely use them again.
Lisa is amazing! She has lots of toys, and a one level home with a safe and beautiful fenced backyard. Lisa regularly sent us updates including images and videos of our happy dog. We wholeheartedly recommend Lisa and plan on having our dog stay at Chez Lisa again some time in the future.
If i could give more than 5 stars i would. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Sonia was aware of this and did everything she could to put my mind at ease. She sent frequent updates and pictures of him living his best life. When I picked up my dog he was clearly happy and well taken care of. I will absolutely leave my dog with Sonia again.
Yasmil was an amazing sitter for my dog. This was my first time using Rover, I was away for 6 days so I was a little nervous, but she made me feel completely at ease. She sent daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. She took great care of him and kept me reassured the whole time. I felt super comfortable leaving him with her. I will definitely be booking with her again!
Dorota’s home is my dog’s home away from home. They do a wonderful job caring for the dogs who stay with them, from monitoring personalities to capturing the fun in pictures, and ensuring the dogs have lots of backyard playtime. My dog runs up their steps to greet them every time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pawtucket is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $73 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 1,513 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pawtucket. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Pawtucket can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Pawtucket home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Pawtucket.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Pawtucket sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in RI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
