“Kimiko is super friendly and always on time. She takes Charlie great walks (love getting the map updates). She's v understanding of dog needs such as being flexible and comforting about the walk when fireworks start. Bonus: she takes great photos of my Charlie-girl. 🐶🥰”
“Rebecca was reliable and communicated updates. We really appreciate her helping us with Cocoa especially at the last minute! We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“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.”
“Kimberly watched my dogs over Memorial Day weekend - she was very responsive to messages and was very kind to water my plant while I was gone as well, and sent photos of the dogs when she went twice a day. We are hoping to use her again next time we go away!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, so caring for them feels second nature. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve helped with puppy training, administered medications, and supported senior dogs with mobility issues. I am dependable, and I make it a priority to ensure every pet feels cared for while they're with me. I hope you can trust me to take care of your four-legged friend! I’m available every day after 4:30 p.m. and some days around lunchtime. I’m also available for house stays and can provide consistent, reliable care. On weekdays, I’m away from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., but I can stop by for an hour midday if needed, and I’m fully available in the evenings and overnight. When I’m staying at a client’s home or stopping by for walks, I treat pets like they’re my own. I stick to their routines to keep things familiar. I make sure they get plenty of love and exercise, and I always leave their space clean.
“We have relied on Michelle countless times to help take care of our kitties while we are away. She has always gives the best updates and is such a great care giver to our fur babies. We always have peace of mind knowing Michelle is stopping in to help while we are gone. We love booking with Michelle!”
“Jenna is absolutely fabulous and I trust her completely with my fur babies. She goes out of her way to provide me peace of mind when I am away and I appreciate it so much! Thank you Jenna!”
“Sam is a true animal lover and my dogs just loved the visit! They had a great time plying in the yard followed by dinner. Dogs are a great judge of character and my babies loved the time they had together. Sam also took great photos of my babies. ❤️”
“Maryann has been nothing short of amazing. The day before we left for our trip, Scout ended up at the emergency vet. Maryann said she was comfortable administering the medicine and assured me that she was able to keep everything under control so we could be away and not worry. She sent lots of photos and detailed reports to keep us informed. We have one more night with Maryann as our sitter and I already asked to leave a review because she cares for your pets as though they are her own and it shows!”
“Awesome sitter! We felt totally comfortable leaving our elderly cat for a week because we knew Bri was on top of it! She provided regular updates and pictures and handled giving our cat his allergy meds with no issue. Highly recommend!!”
“She’s amazing! Goes above and beyond for little Leo”
“Katarina was so great! My Angie LOVED her and seemed so happy in all the pictures. Katarina was so communicative and flexible! Absolutely would book again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, & have experienced tons of different personalities. I try to get to know a dog to help them in a positive way with the separation anxiety that comes with being apart from their family. I currently do ceramic art so I spend my free time at the studio. I usually make things at home so it’s easy to care for a pup while i get some work done! I also love having dogs around, and meeting new pups is always fun :) I have a fenced in yard, & a park nearby for easy walking without crossing traffic. My pup Moon loves other dogs, he’s 2, & acclimates well to other dogs once getting over the initial excitement. He’s easy to separate as well if needed! We go to Slater park or Lincoln Woods for a good outdoor walkie if we need an activity. I also make him bones stuffed with frozen pumpkin & peanut butter to keep him occupied when we’re not playing. He’s fully vaccinated as well~
“Sara was fabulous! She was timely, attentive and very good with my two pups. She cuddled with Delilah and played with Oliver - who was very tired after Sarah's visit which is always a good sign! Thanks Sarah!”
“Grace did a great job communicating and coaxing my pup to eat.”
“Melissa was so professional and took the utmost care of Princess. Communication was timely and it was lovely to see daily photos of Princess enjoying herself and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating to Princess's walking needs/time outside. I'm extremely grateful Melissa was able to provide excellent service and care of Princess while I was away.”
“Excellent! Great communication and wonderful care. Will hire again without hesitation.”
“This is not the first time that Susan take care of my dog. This time I hired another sitter through Rover (Susan was not available) and on day one the other sitter informed me he couldn't take care of my dog without any notice. I was overseas. Susan stepped in immediately despite being unavailable. She adjusted her schedule for drop-in visits. She literally saved my vacation. Thank you, Susan!”
“Shawn, thanks for taking the time to play with the boys!”
“Alex has been wonderful! You probably already read all the good reviews so I will just add few things from our perspective. We have gone through few sitters in the last few years because of either relocation or career change so we have few comparisons to make. All our sitters were great BUT Alex is the first sitter who goes the extra mile to care for your home as much as your pet. Instructions were followed perfectly, rover cards are updated with all the details, great pics, adheres to schedules and simply great pet care overall. Alex was also the first pet sitter to leave your home 100% the way she finds. When I say 100%, I mean it. I am sure there are some of you who would appreciate that more than others so we give our two thumbs up for that! As long as Alex is available here, we will be booking her moving forward for all our pet care needs.”
