“Mackenzie was an absolutely incredible cat sitter. She gave our kitty lots of love and followed all of our instructions without issue. She left our home just as we had and she had excellent communication throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate at all to have her as our cat sitter again if we get the opportunity. I fully recommend Mackenzie if you are looking for someone to take care of your furry friend.”
“Highly recommend! Oxana is so patient and caring and also very knowledgable and intuitive when it comes to dog behavior. I love that she is super communicative and reliable, and that my velcro doodle, who normally suffers separation anxiety, is quite happy spending time with her.”
“We had a great experience with Noah caring for our 2 dogs Luna and Woody. He did a meet and greet first to learn each dogs individual personalities. Noah communicated well during their visits with updates. He also offered to feed my pet turtles and filled my outdoor bird bath.”
About: Growing up next to a door trainer is no joke. It was definitely my gateway into pet sitting. With years of experience sitting all kinds of animals, I’ve never met a dog that hasn’t loved me. Reactive, old, needy, temperamental I’ve experienced it all. Reach out if you would like to set some time to meet and let me see how I can make your day a little better. As a part timer in nightlife, I work weekends at night. Luckily that frees up my week to be able to walk or sit for you! My superpower is sticking to the dogs routine, to set them up for success. Picky dog? Not a problem! If I do a longer stay; I will be sure to leave your home in better condition than I found it in.
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life and have loved taking care of the pets of family friends and neighbors. I have experience with a variety of ages and I have helped train multiple family dogs. I love taking my dogs on runs or just lounging around the house giving belly rubs or cuddles... and the occasional treat. I am a recent graduate of Physician Assistant school starting work in the winter. My schedule is very open as a result, and I am happy to accommodate your needs. I live in a pet friendly home with easy access to multiple parks and walking paths. I am happy to commute to your home as well if this would make things easier or your pet feel more comfortable.
“Micheal took wonderful care of Bailer and provided me with constant updates during his visit. He was super easy to communicate with and was very timely. My cat warmed up to him immediately and definitely made a new friend. I will definitely book with him again!”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever and pitbull, and have house sat for friends and family numerous times! My favorite part of the day is exploring the community with a pet buddy:) I am a full time graduate student with availability in the mornings and on weekends! I am an early bird with a flexible and accommodating schedule I love staying active and understand the importance of comfortability, reliability, and consistency! I have experience with animals who are on the anxious side and am able to meet the needs of each pet
“Maryann clearly loves animals and my shy cat took to her right away! She took lots of notes and made everything super easy. I was totally confident with her taking care of Pumpkin while I was gone and definitely will book again. Thank you!!”
“Meira was wonderful with Deedles! Deedles doesn’t warm up to people very quickly, but within days she was flopping for scritches. Meira was great with sending detailed updates and pictures every visit. She was very responsive and left my place nice and clean. Thanks, Meira!”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful with my shy, retiring cat. She knows how kitties work and was able to entice her out. She was easy to connect with and gave great updates to make the fur Mom happy. I will be booking her again.”

About: I've been dogsitting for friends for the past few years! I've loved dogs and would love to continue spending more time with them! Always eager to help people and make dogs feel loved! I work in ministry and have a flexible schedule. I'm not free all the time, but can be really flexible depending on the season! Always down to have a conversation to iron out details! I have only cared for pets in other people's homes. I follow whatever guidelines, instructions, or rules that pet owners give me. I want to make sure their pets are on their regular schedules and are loved!
“Emily did a wonderful job with our cat, while we were away. Our car seemed happy and comfortable when we came back. We appreciate that she took time to play and bond with our cat We look forward to having Emily look after her again in the future.”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Providence
Noah was fantastic with our cats! From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear how attentive, reliable, and comfortable he is around animals. We received timely updates, photos with every visit, and clear communication throughout the entire booking. Coming home to happy, relaxed cats and clean feeding areas gave us complete peace of mind while away. We will definitely be booking with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable pet care!
Our dogs really enjoyed their time with Grace. Grace had an ease around them, quickly developed rapport and was attuned to their different personalities and needs. Communication was clear and if any issues emerged Grace was pro-active in reaching out. We would definitely use Grace again and would recommend her services to friends. A good solid, reliable and caring individual.
Isabelle was incredibly trustworthy. Did everything I requested and more. Lots of cute pictures of my cat showing how comfortable and content she made my senior lady feel. Communication was great, came on time. Isabelle is my go to cat sitter from now on. Can’t recommend enough! Thank you!
Micheal took wonderful care of Bailer and provided me with constant updates during his visit. He was super easy to communicate with and was very timely. My cat warmed up to him immediately and definitely made a new friend. I will definitely book with him again!
Mackenzie was an absolutely incredible cat sitter. She gave our kitty lots of love and followed all of our instructions without issue. She left our home just as we had and she had excellent communication throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate at all to have her as our cat sitter again if we get the opportunity. I fully recommend Mackenzie if you are looking for someone to take care of your furry friend.
This was our second time booking with Jasmine to watch our cat while we were away. Once again, Jasmine impressed with her care of and attention to our cat. She went above and beyond, even taking out the litter trash and offering to help with a few household tasks. We'll book with Jasmine again the next time we're headed out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Providence on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 3,235 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Providence. 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 Providence 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Providence. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
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.
