“Mia was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very professional, sweet, patient and welcomed the long list of things to know about my dog! She was always in communication, always there when she said she would be, flexible, and did all of the things that made me feel comfortable with her taking care of my baby. I would absolutely highly, highly recommend Mia and will definitely be using her services again in the future! Thank you Mia and Rover!”
“We have now hired Michelle multiple times when we go on week-long trips. She provides thorough updates and genuinely takes care of our fur babies. Having her check in on our cats and update us makes it so we can enjoy our time away from our cats without worrying about them! We appreciate Michelle so much and plan on reaching out again in the future!”
About: We love welcoming new friends for visits. We have a fully fenced backyard, plenty of space for playing, swimming in the puppy pool, napping, and cuddling. We’re located in a neighborhood made for long, leisurely walks. I also enjoy taking photos and am happy to send you updates as often (or as little) as you’d like. Schedule a meet-and-greet with us! We can’t wait to meet you! On the days I work from home and on weekends, we would love to have a dog-friend join us for the day, or for an overnight. If we’re somewhat neighbors, I am also available for walks over the weekend and possibly on weeknight(s). I have a fenced-in yard, home security, smoke and CO alarm. I do not crate our dog Lucy, but if you need me to do so for your dog, consider it done! I walk her in her harness around safe neighborhoods like Oak Hill in Pawtucket and on the East Side of Providence. I refrain from dog parks because I feel she is more comfortable with one on one play, but if there is a certain park you'd like me to take your dog to, I'd be happy to.
“Grace was excellent with taking care of my two older kitties! They’re both on medications and she was able to administer without issues. She’s reliable and had great communication.”
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dog for years, and over time friends started trusting me with theirs too. I’m reliable, I pay attention to what each dog needs, and I genuinely enjoy having them around. I’m currently working from home but can take time out of my day during to take care of pets and walk dogs. Since I work from home, I am typically also available to house-sit. I have a cozy townhome in which the dog will have lots of room to move around and plenty of space outside for me to take them on a walk.
About: With 15 years of experience, I provide reliable, compassionate pet care including walks, boarding, behavior modification, puppy training, senior care, medication administration, and personalized attention. My flexible schedule allows availability mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests, ensuring dependable care whenever you and your pets need me most consistently. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a safe, trustworthy, clean, low-stress environment where every pet feels loved, secure, always.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even the occasional Axlotl for as long as I can remember! Trusted by friends, family, colleagues, neighbors, and strangers. Experience with: Dogs Young dogs Dogs with behavioral challenges Elderly dogs with medical needs Cats (The humble Axlotl) I work a few part time jobs, with some available daytime hours and some available nighttime hours. I always make sure to keep enough time for comprehensive pet care, meaning several walks a day, play, and leisure time together, but there are times when I must spend 6-10 hours out of the house. I have a beautiful, not-fully-enclosed yard that a leashed pet would love to spend time in. I keep a pet free home, but there are animals in my building. I do keep plants, not all of which are pet-safe, but I have a strict system for keeping them quarantined during animal care.
“Kristine was amazing over the holiday week I was away. I got video clips and pictures every day. Lots of updates on how my cats were doing. Followed my instructions to the letter and then some. I would definitely schedule her again. Thanks again!!!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with two Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and have been around many other breeds over the years. I also participated in 4-H for a couple of years, where I helped train our second family dog. I genuinely love spending time with animals and would be happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, or house sitting. I’m available mostly on weekdays, with some weekend availability depending on the amount of notice I receive. I’ve had cats in my own home for the past four years and also have experience caring for family members’ cats. I have reliable transportation, so you can count on me to get to and from your home safely and on time. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and care for them as if they were my own! I am Available Monday-Friday as of now as I am currently job hunting for a new job. Please reach out with at least 5 day notice for house sitting I would love to help keep your furry friend company either just by going for a quick walk or having a play session or even just giving them some pats and cuddles
“Jules was wonderful! I felt really comfortable leaving Courgette with them and felt very at peace. Jules was also great at communicating, would certainly choose them again.”
“Our pup is on a food trial and needed to taking medication and each of his poop rated and logged. Rachel was excellent and carrying out all the meticulous instructions consistently and made sure to share pictures and elaborate feedback about each of her visits for three days we needed her help. Needless to say, Loki loved her. I highly recommend her and would definitely rebook”
“Briana was the best! She provided us with great updates and pictures, and took amazing care of our cats. I have never felt so comfortable leaving my pets for an extended period of time!”
About: I love pets. I had 4 dogs at one point of all sizes & breeds. I currently have 3 dogs and a cat. One husky (Mila) and 2 little ones (Minnie & Milo), my black cat. Mr. Kitty. I’ve been told I get along with pets who aren’t even good with other people. I believe good energy translates to animals ♥️♥️ I am off a lot during the day. My day typically looks like going to the dog park every morning. I am a few minutes from slater park. Sometimes I go on small hike trails with my dogs as well. I will care for your pet as I do care for mine. I truly have a love for animals. If I had owned my own home, I’d have a few more. I will also respect any boundaries you have towards your pet and home.
“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.”

Eliza is absolutely wonderful with my fur babies and gave me such peace of mind while I’m at work. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. I really appreciated that she never rushed her visits and stayed for the full time I booked. She takes the time to make sure my dogs are comfortable, happy, and well cared for.
Jenny gracefully cared for our elderly dog and two young, recently rescued, formerly feral kittens with expert attention to their every need and quirky behaviors! What a relief to know she was at the pet care helm. Our older gentleman dog R2D2 requires multiple medications with meals and bedtime which Jenny was happy to administer. She sent so many sweet photos of his happy face and detailed notes rich with her observations and humorous tone - the best sitter we have ever had, paws down! Our scardey kittens hid from her almost the entire time we were away but Jenny still consistently cleaned their box and set out their meals despite their reluctance to appear. Jenny even pooper scooped our yard, took out the trash, brought in the mail, turned lights on and off, opened and shut curtains, and watered our garden! What incredible, so much appreciated, service. We will never worry about our boy’s needs again with Jenny. She is so sweet, selfless, and gentle. A true gem of a sitter. Thank you, thank you, Jenny!
Grace is absolutely wonderful. She’s dependable, kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about my dogs. I’m admittedly very particular about who I trust with my babies, and with Grace, I never have to worry. I know they’re safe, well cared for, and probably being spoiled just the right amount. She treats them like they’re her own, and that kind of trust is priceless. If your pets are family and your standards for their care are high, Grace is your girl. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Grace, for taking such amazing care of my babies!
Emily is the best sitter we’ve used on the Rover app! She made notes during our first meet and greet, gave our kitty so much love while we were away, and went out of her way to keep our kitty comfortable by managing the A/C during hot days. I 100% recommend booking with Emily.
Xavier was an amazing support in such a last min bind. 🙌🏾 he showed up and was professional and got the job done with care. Especially with care, I have an older doggie and he has daily meds/ointments/diapers and non of this was too much for X he took care of our Frankie and we will be hitting him up again.
Ben was such an attentive cat sitter to my three boys while I was away. He cleaned up a few messes, picked up medication, and communicated so well. I came home to 3 happy boys with clean bowls, an empty trash, and no weird smells (the dream return home scenario!)

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,036 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pawtucket. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.

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 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.
