“I was a bit anxious about leaving my dog while I went on vacation. Laura provided twice a day drop in visits and I couldn’t have been more satisfied. More importantly, my dog Lila enjoyed her visits and playtime. Laura provided me with updates and photos at each visit, which put me at ease. Thank you to Laura for being professional, caring and a snuggle buddy for my little girl . I highly recommend Laura and Rover.. will use these services again for sure!”
“Maryann was amazing. Her reports were detailed and insightful, reflecting how fully attentive she was with my foster babies. I trust her completely and couldn’t ask for a better caretaker in my absence”
“Melissa was so professional and took the utmost care of Princess. Communication was timely and it was lovely to see daily photos of Princess enjoying herself and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating to Princess's walking needs/time outside. I'm extremely grateful Melissa was able to provide excellent service and care of Princess while I was away.”
“Grace did a great job watching my cat. She fed her, cleaned the litter and sent me pictures and/or comments each day. My cat isn't very friendly with people that she doesn't know and Grace handled it just fine. Would be happy to have her come again.”

“We had the best cat sitter experience with Jules! She is an excellent communicator, shared ample photos, and gave a thorough update on each of our cats. She made our cat crew feel safe and respected around her and even coaxed our shy cat out from her hidey hole. In addition to feeding/water/litter, she made time to bond with them through play with wand toys. Our cats are looking forward to their next visit with Jules, already booked!”
“Our dog usually takes awhile to warm up to people which is why I was shocked at how quickly she warmed up to Jessica. She came home very happy and tired after their hike. You can tell how much she already loves Jessica - she even jumped up by the window to watch her leave , which she doesn’t normally do for other people. Highly recommend Jessica !”

“Taylor was a fantastic help with our two cats while we were away. I get a little nervous when we are out of town because one of the cats needs medication, but Taylor's photos and messages left me reassured that everything was going well. She was very prompt in replying to my messages, and even went out of her way to help us with a mailbox problem that came up! I would definitely ask her to take care of our pets again.”
About: Hi there! My name’s Sam, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve worked in animal rescue and currently work in veterinary medicine, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds — from energetic puppies and senior cats to small mammals and even a few exotics! My background allows me to recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and ensure your pets are always safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. At home, I have my own cat, Raven — a sassy 6-year-old who keeps me on my toes and reminds me every day how special the bond with our pets really is. I have a soft spot for pit bulls and American bullies, but I truly love and respect all breeds and personalities. Whether I’m stopping in for a visit or staying for a short-term sit, I’ll treat your pets like my own — with patience, care, and plenty of love. I am very flexible. Typically would not leave your pet alone for long periods of time or without potty breaks- I will leave for a few hours usually to just run errands! Constant Communication and photo updates are key to a good stay! It’s important to me keep pet parents updated throughout my visit. I also always respect privacy in your home!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pawtucket
Grace had a challenging experience with my dog because Maui is so anxious/not good at welcoming and trusting others. However, Grace was patient, kind, and persistent (thankfully!) I was away for almost 4 days and during that time, Grace managed to gain my dog’s trust enough so that he could be cared for properly. It took lots of effort and I am grateful she didn’t give up on him! Ty Grace!
Xavier is reliable punctual and fantastic as always. He is detailed oriented and follows instructions well. I will book him again and I would absolutely trust him with my dog. I'm glad that I can have someone as reliable as him with my dog. We have communications so you can rest easy leaving him with your fur babies.
Emily is SO fabulous with my senior retired service dog Miss Lana! She is a big girl and has arthritis, but Emily knows how to help us, and even when Lana has some accidents indoors (I mean she is 15!! lol) she was so kind and cleaned up as well. She is an excellent communicator too, and takes lots of good doggy pictures for this mom who misses her girl!! Thank you Emily 💗🤩
Michelle was absolutely awesome! Just as her reviews read, she was very professional, easy to work with, and an amazing photographer!!! Loved the constant updates and she went above and beyond. Highly recommend to anyone and would definitely book again! Thanks Michelle!!!!!
Rachel was great!! She was on time, and so graceful figuring out some things we forgot to go over before we left (old house problems). Daisy loved her and we will def be booking again! Knowing someone caring and responsible is taking care of your pets is truly a gift when you have to be away from them. Thank you so much Rachel!!
Caroline is exceptional. Dependable, thoughtful, and a truly caring communicator from start to finish. Our dog is older and has special care needs, and Caroline handled everything with patience, confidence, and genuine kindness. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such capable hands. Five stars without hesitation.
Gilisa is amazing! I'm so happy with Gilisa. Her communication put my mind at ease. She sent videos, pictures, loved on my spoiled babies and even cleaned up an accident. She's amazing and your babies are in wonderful loving hands. Absolutely love her and will definitely book again

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 Pawtucket 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.
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 Pawtucket 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!
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 .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Pawtucket with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
