“Very happy with Nicki and the overall experience with Rover. Nicki sent photos and videos during the entire stay. It was great not having to worry about how my pet was doing, she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Nicki and I will book with her again. Thanks again for taking great care of Sassy.”
“I wish I could give 20 stars. We entrusted our 10 year old German Shepherd with Lainey for 10 days over Thanksgiving. I was so worried our dog would think we abandoned him because he tends to have separation anxiety. We couldn’t be happier with how well our dog was treated. Constant updates and pictures where he looked SO happy. No separation anxiety at all! He was loved on played with and walked, we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home! Lainey and her husband treated him like their own. They even sent him home with a present and a wonderful card. I means everything to have found someone we can trust our fur baby with, especially with his health issues she was on top of all his meds and supplements. I will absolutely use Lainey for Jake in the future!”
“Provides daily pics and videos while ur away which is great reassurance for anyone who’s nervous about leaving their dogs while traveling. My dog was comfortable, happy, and clean throughout the ten days he was in their care. 😊 Their dog Josie is an absolute sweetheart too!”
“Jeanne was great with my pup. She sent regular pictures and made me feel comfortable knowing he was well cared for. Not only was she always responsive, she showed a depth of knowledge regarding canine body language that made me know Kilo would be safe and cared for in my absence!”
“Oksana provided great care for our two dogs. She was very attentive, communicated well and provided photos throughout the dogs' stay. Our dogs are older dogs and needed extra care and we felt very comfortable having our dogs stay at their home. I highly recommend Oksana.”
“I can't think of a better place to board Caesar than with Rebecca, her family, her cats and her dogs! I had 100% faith and peace of mind that he'd be as loved and cared for as he is at home within 5 minutes of meeting them and seeing how they all interacted. We'll definitely be back next time we need a sitter!”
“Saffron watched my puppy for a few days while I had to go out of town, and it was great. She sent me videos and pictures the whole time so I never had to worry how she was doing. Definitely recommend her!”
“Aaryn and Angela were great with our dog, Millie! They made sure she was well taken care of and kept a constant flow of communication with us while she was in their care. We will definitely book again!”
“Hannah did a great job with our pup! Sent lots of pictures and our boy was happy when we picked him up. Sounds like he got lots of spoiling while we were gone. Definitely will use again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Alexandra! She took incredible care of my pup while I was out of town, and was kind enough to work with me by extending Rip’s stay due to flight delays. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Vacations can be stressful. It’s much easier knowing your pet is in good hands. Michelle does a fantastic job with our dog. She’s flexible, communicative, and we’ve only had great experiences. I have and would continue to recommend Michelle for anyone who needs a sitter for their four-legged friend.”
About: Hello! I’m Zoe and I would love to extend my services to you! I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have plenty of experience pet sitting, overnight care, walking, and drop in visits. I’ve helped out several families and if you need references, I’d be glad to give you the names of families I’ve helped out before! I do have a dog of my own. His name is Graham and he is a little under a year old. He’s 100% house, crate, and potty trained and knows all kinds of tricks. Caring for dogs is a passion I have and your dogs will definitely be in good hands. Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns you have may! Thank you so much! I work from home so I’ll be home all day with your pet. I have a huge fenced in yard and a plethora of dog toys, treats, and food so I am well equipped! With being home all day, you don’t have to worry about your dog being alone in a boarding facility over night. It gives you peace of mind.
“Morgan and Matthew were so great with Joey!! They were very flexible with pickup/dropoff, sent regular updates, and gave me confidence in my dog’s well being. I will be boarding with them again.”
“Super incredible, sent me lots of pictures of my pup having a great time, and was very flexible with me when things came up. Super incredible I would definitely recommend again”
“David and family are always great with communication, sending frequent updates and photos. This stay, they noticed Laila wasn’t acting like her usual self. She was sleeping more and hanging her head down. Edith looked in her ears and noticed an infection. She immediately contacted me, and offered to give doggy ibuprofen (with my permission), and/or call the emergency vet (since it was Christmas). I truly appreciate how attentive they are to all my dog’s needs!”
“We had a great experience with Jonathan! We did a meet and greet with him prior and our dog Murphy seemed very comfortable with him. He was very communicative and sent us daily pictures. Murphy played with his German Shepherd in his fenced yard and seemed like he had a ball. We definitely plan on using Jonathan again for our future trips out of town!”
“Took time to gather information and meet my dog prior to his stay. During his stay with Meg, she cooked for him, trimmed his nails and taught him new tricks - I did not even ask for these services but she generously did them. She really cares about dogs and is easy to trust.”
“Disco looked right at home with Alexis and John while we were on a family vacation for the week. They sent lots of updates and were nice and flexible when it came to drop off and pick up. I know Disco would happily visit again and we wouldn’t hesitate either :)”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Providence is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,004 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Providence. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
96% of sitters in Providence can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Providence 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 Providence.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Providence. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
You and your Providence 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 SC 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
