“Bri was FABULOUS!! We got lots of pictures of our two cat fur babies and wonderful reports on how they were doing everyday. Never had to worry while we were out on vacation!”
About: Hi! I’m a teacher enjoying summer break and looking forward to spending time with your pets. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have years of experience dog sitting, cat sitting, house sitting, and babysitting. I’m responsible, dependable, and comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I love being active and spending time outdoors, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, and make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. Whether your pet needs companionship during the day, regular walks, or care while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a teacher and currently off for the summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pets. I enjoy being active and going for walks, so taking dogs out for exercise and fresh air is something I genuinely look forward to each day. Throughout the week, I can provide consistent care, companionship, playtime, feeding, and walks while making sure pets stick to their usual routines. Whether a pet needs an active walk, a cuddle on the couch, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, medications (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I understand that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m an active person who enjoys walking and being outdoors, so I’m always happy to provide plenty of exercise and enrichment. I also make sure pets have companionship, a safe environment, and lots of affection. As a teacher, I’m dependable, organized, and attentive to details, and I will always communicate with owners by providing updates and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Heath was terrific. He connected quickly and easily with my two cats-one of whom can be super shy- to the point that both were requesting belly-rubs within two days😀. I came home to two happy cats, my mail in, my trash can in, and the kitchen trash emptied! 😀. I’m definitely keeping Heath at the top of my list of cat sitters”
“Sarah has great communication and made me feel comfortable leaving my cat at home. My cat seemed really happy in all the pictures Sarah sent. Definitely will rebook next time I need a cat sitter :) thank you!”
“Emily did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was away! She was incredibly patient and attentive, and the photos she sent were absolutely adorable. Even though sometimes my cat can be a bit nervous, Emily gave her plenty of time and space to adjust — she truly understands cats! I could tell from my cat’s behavior that she genuinely enjoyed Emily’s company — she looked much happier and more relaxed than when she’s alone. Knowing that my cat was so well cared for made my trip so much more worry-free. Again, big big thanks to Emily for taking such great care of my fluffy little girl!”
“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”
“I can tell Maryann went above and beyond for my two cats to earn their trust and provide them comfort. Very grateful, and planning future bookings, with assurance I will feel secure that they're well cared for when I'm away. Thank you, Maryann!”
“Oxana took great care of our two cats, and they were happy and healthy when we got home. She was a great communicator, and we would definitely rebook with her.”
“Noah was great with checking in on my 2 Siamese cats, Jade and Amethyst. Noah was professional, courteous and punctual. I don't know how he did it, but he got Amethyst out of her shell, she is usual very reserved with pet sitter's. I highly recommend Noah, and I will definitely choose Noah again in the future. Noah is truly a top-notch sitter!”
“Jasmine was wonderful to work with! She stayed in touch with us, sending us photos and detailed notes about our cat, even going above and beyond with care during a heatwave while we were away. While we've had some very good experiences with sitters through Rover in the past, Jasmine, with her dedicated attention to communication and to our cat, was far and away the best sitter we've worked with in our area! We can't recommend her enough and hope she's available when we're next out of town.”
“Mae was great! So responsive and organized. Took great care of the nuances and personalities of both my dog and cat. 10/10 would recommend and will book with her again!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She kept me updated and took excellent care of my puppy. This was my first time to use an online pet sitter. I was really anxious about leaving him. Kaitlyn took all of the worry out of the process. I would highly recommend her for your pets. If I’m back in Providence, I will definitely book with her again.”
“Our doggie looked sooo happy and rested when I got back & I know that’s b/c of J’s care. We have an older elderly dog with unique medical needs. This is the sitter you want their patience and care was excellent. Looking forward to rebooking them soon very soon indeed.”
About: I've been caring for pets for over 15 years. My family had two dogs while I was growing up, and I was responsible for feeding them, taking them on walks, and bringing them to their grooming appointments. After moving abroad for school, I adopted two rescue cats from a local shelter and have cared for them ever since by myself. I stay on top of their annual wellness exams and vaccinations, introduce new foods to keep their meals interesting, bathe them when needed, spend lots of time playing with them, and even take them on walks occasionally. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm currently a graduate student, so my schedule depends on my work, but I'm usually available around lunchtime and in the evenings after 5–6 PM (or nights if necessary). My schedule is generally more flexible on weekends. Because of my lab work, I'm better suited for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting rather than full-time boarding. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I will carefully follow each owner's feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special care requests. I take time to learn each pet's personality and never force interactions if they're shy or nervous (I have a shy cat so I know how it works). I will also provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you'll always know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Maya went above and beyond for my three kitties!! She is an absolutely delightful person and you can tell she truly cares for your pets like she would her own. I will definitely be using her again and again. Thank you Maya! 🩷🐾🩷”
“Jordan took exceptional care of my cats, Sage and Oliver. She followed every instruction I left with great attention to detail and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Her communication was consistent, clear, and thoughtful, which gave me real peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Sage and Oliver again.”
“I always have a great experience with Ellie. She's very reliable and a good communicator. I feel confident that my pet is getting the best possible care and attention.”
“Another wonderful sit with Meira! She’s so great about detailed updates and so many photos and videos. Deedles loves her - even I can’t touch the belly, but Meira is allowed!”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Providence is $25

Thank you so much, Maryann! I knew I would be in good hands - Maryann is so knowledgeable about cats and I felt safe leaving my cat in her care. My house is a bit complicated right now and she patiently dealt with some extra hassle. I would recommend her to a friend!
Jasmine was wonderful to work with! She stayed in touch with us, sending us photos and detailed notes about our cat, even going above and beyond with care during a heatwave while we were away. While we've had some very good experiences with sitters through Rover in the past, Jasmine, with her dedicated attention to communication and to our cat, was far and away the best sitter we've worked with in our area! We can't recommend her enough and hope she's available when we're next out of town.
One of the best pet sitters you will ever find highly recommend. Very sad that she's moving away from my area. Wish they were staying cuz they're always so good. My pets love her and will always be in their heart. Like I said, very friendly. Very highly recommend I would hire her in a heartbeat again but like I said she's moving away so me and my pets are sad.
Super great with my little fur guys. Very knowledgeable about pets. Very friendly, highly recommend. He makes sure to take very good notes before he even comes and takes care of them. And if he has any questions he will notify you and contact you to make sure that he has all the answers he needs to make sure your pets are taken care of.
Kaitlyn was absolutely wonderful with my cats! She provided fantastic care, kept me updated with photos, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief finding someone so dependable and caring. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!
Jessica is a PHENOMENAL pet sitter and has taken such good care of my kitty girls more than once! She goes above and beyond to make sure that they're taken care of and even went out of her way to get my picky shy kitty her favorite treats 🥺 I would recommend her so so highly to anyone looking for someone they can trust to watch their fur babies 💓
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!)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Providence on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,491 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Providence. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
