“Pat did so amazing with our 4 month old puppy! She watched him at her house during our wedding weekend, and we felt 100% comfortable that he was safe and having a great time. I know Howie is excited to go back to his hikes and playing with Pat for our next trip!”
“Ashley was great! She was quick to respond to our request for her services. Our dog Tessa stayed with her for 4 nights and seemed very content there. We received many updates with pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Jean was a wonderful sitter for Piglet!! Lots of pictures and messages. Everything went extremely well, except for a glitch with his food (my fault!) but she handled it with aplomb and creativity and all was well!! She is going to be my go to sitter from now on!!”
“Yunshu and her family took excellent care of my Mini Schnauzer, Harry. I received photos and videos often while I was away. Her two little girls loved playing and walking Harry So he was kept busy all the time so he didn't have time to miss me. HaHa. Their house is very clean and well kept and I knew he was in great hands when I first visited. I will definitely have Yunshu watch Harry again when I take a trip.”
“Armitage took great care of my 2 dogs for a week. We got photos everyday and plenty of updates that they were doing well. Armitage also washed our dog’s beds before we picked them up, which was not expected! I felt very confident they were in good hands while we were away!”
“Leanne and Michael were amazing! They took great care of our senior dog and sent tons of updates and pictures while we were away. I truly appreciate the care they took with our dog. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends!”
“Barbara was wonderful! My dog is 100 lbs of anxiety in a 20 pound bag and I have never left her with a stranger before. She has a lovely fluffy dog and a nice backyard space. You can trust her with even your most delicate flowers. She took good care of mine!”
“Natalia and her husband provided excellent care for Gigi! They were so kind, and provided lots of updates and pictures, which we loved! I wouldn’t hesitate to have Gigi stay with them again (and Archie, of course!!). Thank you so much!! Look forward to seeing you again 🙂”
“Merci and dolce were well cared for and smelt fabulous when I picked them up! Adam was very kind and provided me updates and check ins. Very flexible and my dogs got some snuggles in. Thank you!”
“Christine is wonderful! She took care of our fur baby Finn for a week. She sent lots of photos and updates. When we returned he was happy and well cared for! Will definitely book with Christine again”
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have taken care of all different breads and sizes. I can handle large/strong dogs as well as puppies that need extra attention. We have kids and our own dog (Beira, the Scottish Terrier) so I know how important good, easy care is. As well as patience and attention. I am available during most days for quick care and walks built around school and kid activities. I have my own car and can make the trips or even transport if needed. Overnight care can be discussed as I'm open to it under a week long. I am flexible enough to meet your pet care needs. Basic walks and play, feeding, medicine distribution, and anything else you need. I myself am active so playing isn't an issue or even giving baths.
“Eve was great! She and her family clearly care about the pets they sit. I received photos and updates daily about how Coco was doing and it was obvious she felt welcome and at home. Eve was flexible and accommodating about pick-up and drop-off times and made the entire process a breeze. Will definitely trust her with Coco again. Thanks Eve!”
“Rhody always has a great time with Jessica and Abu. It's difficult leaving him as he gets older and Jessica is the only one we trust. She loves him like her own and takes such good care of him. Thanks to her we are able to travel knowing he's in the best hands. Always a 5 star experience!”
“Keasha is wonderful! I've have 2 sitters I use with the Rover app and Keasha is one of them. She has this wonderful calmness and welcoming personality. I have used her time and time again because she is phenomenal. She often updates me on how my dog is doing and send me pictures. Which is great when you're away and you know your dog is in the best of care. I have used Keasha with my previous dog Russell who was a senior dog and now again with my newly adopted dog Scooby. She's the best!!”
“Karen was amazing! This was my first time leaving Hazel Grace with anyone other than family, and I was so nervous. Karen immediately put me at ease, sent daily photos and updates, and took wonderful care of Hazel. She even took the time during our meet and greet to make sure Hazel and her pup were comfortable together, and they became instant friends. Hazel had a great time, and I truly appreciated all of Karen’s care and advice. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her 100%! 🐶💕”
“Cherylee took such great care of my young cat. She had awesome toys for him, kept him entertained and sent me photos and videos. I felt really good about leaving him in her care. I was nervous and worried about leaving him for the first time but all went purrfectly! I will definitely use Cherylee and Steven again!”
“Erica, again, took wonderful care of Sully. He comes home happy, tired from romping with his friends and no whining. He ate well, also. We will continue to use Erica’s sitting service whenever she is available. Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Potowomut
This was our first time leaving Lucy with Natalia for 10 days with Natalia. Lucy did great and Natalia kept us updated daily with pictures and let us know how she was doing. We felt very comfortable leaving Lucy with Natalia in her home and she looked like she and Archie got along great. We would not hesitate to leave her with Natalia again!
Alexa is wonderful - you can tell she adores animals and our dog Archie loved her and her husband too! She was available for a last minute request when another Rover sitter cancelled and was graciously willing to have Archie stay for another couple of hours when our travel plans got delayed. If you need a sweet, responsive, responsible, easy to work with person for your pet, book her ! ❤️
Armitage took great care of my 2 dogs for a week. We got photos everyday and plenty of updates that they were doing well. Armitage also washed our dog’s beds before we picked them up, which was not expected! I felt very confident they were in good hands while we were away!
Emily is a phenomenal sitter. I booked at the last minute and she was so gracious and ready to help. Her care for my pup was top tier! I could not ask for a better person and sitter to take care of my pup. Emily was attentive, communicative and made my pup feel at home. I HIGHLY recommend Emily to take care of your pup. I’ll definitely book again.
Wonderful experience!! Our pug is our world and get worried about her with her pug myelopathy. They were great with her and sent TONS of photos and updates throughout our trip❤️ It made it so we could enjoy our trip and know she was in great hands. Thank you for taking great care of our Zo ☺️
Victoria is a wonderful dog sitter. She was incredibly responsive from the moment I reached out, which made the whole process stress-free. My dog is older and can be picky about eating, but she went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of. She even picked up treats to encourage him to eat, and it made such a difference knowing she was willing to put in that extra effort. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being. I would absolutely trust her to watch my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and dependable sitter.
Jessica was exactly who we needed to take care of our dog during spring break. Our pup is a bit timid, but she was in good spirits when we left her. Throughout the 7-day stay, Jessica sent us photos and updates, which demonstrated her sense of responsibility. I will definitely have our dog stay with Jessica again!
Christina was truly exceptional, and I cannot recommend her highly enough as a dog sitter/boarder. She cared for my two dogs (both labs) —a 5-year-old and a 6-month-old puppy—for eight days while my family and I traveled out of the country. I was incredibly nervous about leaving them, especially the puppy, who is so young. Both dogs were adopted after spending time in shelters and foster homes, and I worried about how they would feel being away from us. On top of that, it had been a long winter with constant snow, and the puppy has endless energy—they are a lot to handle even under normal circumstances. I knew this would not be an easy job. From the very beginning, Christina went above and beyond. She graciously met with me over Zoom and in person before our trip, taking the time to understand their personalities, routines, and my concerns. Her thoughtfulness and calm, capable demeanor immediately put me at ease. While we were away, Christina communicated with me every single day. She sent updates and reassurances that meant the world to me, and it was clear she was attentive and deeply invested in their wellbeing. She adapted to their individual needs, handled their energy with patience, and even carefully cared for the puppy when she got a small cut during play with her older sister. I always knew they were safe. Her home is also a wonderful environment for dogs—she has a large, secure fenced yard and a very thoughtful approach to introductions. She had a clear plan for introducing my dogs to hers and uses gates throughout the house so each dog can have space and quiet time when needed. It showed how experienced and intentional she is. When we returned home, our dogs were thrilled to see us—but it was obvious they had been happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. That is the greatest reassurance any pet owner could ask for. Leaving your dogs behind—especially rescues and a young puppy—is incredibly hard, but Christina made it possible. She is responsible, communicative, compassionate, and truly exceptional at what she does. I would trust her again without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Potowomut home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Potowomut.
<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 Potowomut 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
