“Emily took absolutely amazing care of our dog, Tolkien, while we were away! She was incredibly responsible with administering his medication on schedule, which gave us complete peace of mind. Tolkien was happy, relaxed, and perfectly cared for when we returned. We are so grateful for her reliability and wouldn't hesitate to trust her with him again!”
“Kelly Lea did a phenomenal job caring my two kitties. They were well fed, and kept so happy with playtime and treats. It’s great to be able to enjoy your time away when you know that your fur babies are taken care off by such a caring and wonderful person as Kelly Lea. She kept us updated on their well being with messages and photos. She was on time to every visit even when she needed to adjust one of the visit times. Rest assured we will definitely book Kelly Lea for future needs, what a great experience for all.”
“This was my first experience with Rover and Jenna made it so easy for me. I had a few questions ahead of time and she was very good about responding right away. During her visits with Simba, she sent me pictures of him which made me feel secure in knowing he was being cared for. Jenna took such good care of my baby and I will definitely be using her again the next time I need services!! Thanks so much, Jenna!”
About: I've taken care of dogs XL, Large, Medium, and Small breeds and my favorite just so happen to be the really big o'l Doggies! I also have experience with rats, mice, snakes (which i love), turtles, birds, chameleons, and recently frogs! I know how to bath animals NOT grooming, bathing as in washing them and brushing them and cleaning ears but nothing else. I have experience with cooking for dogs haha! and also hiking with them! My schedule is very flexible a lot of the times! I of course have my own pets to worry about but popping by your home for a couple hours or even if I need to watch overnight will be no issue for me as long as I know ahead of time! With my living situation our apartments don't allow anymore then 2 pets at a time and I already have 2 pets unfortunately, so i'd have to go to my clients home. However, I always provide free cleaning of the house if asked and make sure your fur babies have a safe environment away from anything harmful. The majority of the time we will be outside but when indoors at all times I will be watching them so they don't get into any troubles!
“Savannah went above and beyond to care for our cats. She was a great communicator and provided many photos and videos. She also gave them extra attention, plenty of play time, and engagement. It was relieving to know someone was so attentive, trustworthy, and already knowledgeable about pets. She also kept the cat space clean!”
About: I've had animals my entire life. Dogs and cats! I take care of humans in the ER, and want to take care of my preferred kind of babies (fur babies) on my days off! I'm an RN! So I am working 3-4 shifts a week which leaves plenty of time to take care of fur babies on my days off! I will take care of my clients fur babies in ways that are preferred by the client! If that's stopping in for play time, snuggles, walks, etc! I can do it all!
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes! I have looked after and cared for pets since childhood, and would love to add your pet to my roster! I am a massage therapist working 4 days a week. I am available all day on Wednesdays, and Friday afternoons to take your dog for a walk, feed your cat, or hang out with your furry friend! I am flexible to work with you and your pet to best suit their needs. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood, hang out with them at your house, or take them to my fenced in yard where they can run either by themselves or with my dog.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I grew up around dogs, cats, and pretty much every pet in the neighborhood, so being around them just feels like home. I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was young, and it kind of grew from there through word of mouth, which honestly means the world to me. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means keeping up with a high-energy pup or just sitting quietly with a pet who needs some company. Every animal has their own personality, and getting to know that is honestly my favorite part of the job. My schedule is super flexible — honestly, anytime works for me. I'm self-employed, so I have the freedom to be available whenever your pet needs me, whether that's early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last-minute bookings. No 9-to-5 restrictions here! Your pet will never feel like they're being squeezed into a busy schedule — they'll always have my full attention. When I'm in your home, I treat it like my own — with respect, care, and a lot of love for your pet. I follow whatever routine your pet is used to because consistency matters, especially when you're away. I'm not just popping in to check a box — I'm fully present, keeping things comfortable and familiar so your pet barely notices you're gone. Your home and your fur baby are in good hands.
“We are new to the area, but have used Rover before. I saw Kari and Clint’s profile and instantly felt comfortable with our pet care. Due to weather delays, we were a day late- Kari had great communication and was able to help us out. I would highly recommend them for your pet needs!”
About: I've had dogs in my life for the past 7 years. I got my first puppy, an Australian Shepherd, when I was 12, and my second, a chocolate Lab, at 16. Raising both from puppyhood taught me patience, consistency, and how to handle everything from potty training and chewing phases to high-energy breeds that need lots of exercise. I've also always walked my neighbors' dogs, so I'm comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know how much your dog means to you because mine mean the world to me. I'll treat your pup like my own with plenty of walks, playtime, and love, and keep you updated so you never have to worry while you're away. I'm a college student with a part-time job, and I already take full care of my own two dogs and cat every day, so pet care is naturally built into my routine. Even with a busy schedule, I put real effort into every pet I care for. I plan ahead around my classes and work so your pet gets consistent, reliable care and never misses a meal, walk, or cuddle. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly, including feeding times, walks, and any special instructions, and I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes. Since I fully care for two dogs and a cat of my own, I'm used to keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable. In your home, I'll treat your space with respect and leave it just how I found it. I'll send photos and updates during every visit so you always know how your pet is doing.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Providence
Lauren is the best pet sitter ever! She is dependable, shows up for the appts on time, great communication and takes really good care of our pet. After every visit she sends pics and updates. I’d highly recommend her and will be utilizing her services again in a few months - it will be our 4th time.
Lauren was wonderful with our two cats, yet again! The first morning she was there, she immediately recognized that one of our cats didn’t feel well and gave us a call. She was able to put them in separate rooms, and she split her time between the two for the rest of her visits. We came home to both cats happy and healthy. She really went the extra mile, which is beyond appreciated.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 380 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Providence. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
