“Erica is a dog whisperer. She can calm even the most anxious dogs. Her whole family loves to have these guests in the house and keeps them busy. I am do happy she moved back to RI so I have a safe place for me leave my fur baby.”
“Karen is an absolute angel! I am a first time pet owner and this was my first time sending my dog to a sitter. She made the whole process so smooth. From the meet and greet to the day of drop off, she kept in touch and was very responsive. I received updates with pictures and video while I was away on vacation and my shy dog adjusted very well in her environment. In addition, she is very knowledgeable and provided lots of helpful tips in caring for my dog at home!! I will definitely be booking Karen again with no hesitation!”
“Keasha took great care of our dog Arnie. We got daily updates during his stay, and I did not have to worry about him while we were away. We would definitely be happy to have Arnie stay with Keasha again in the future!”
“Jessica was AMAZING with Rondo! She is super flexible with scheduling, pick up and drop off which we are so thankful for. It was our first time in a long time boarding our pup, but Jessica put us at ease when we met her and Abu at the meet and greet. They are both so sweet!! She provided us with updates and photos consistently and overall was an A+. Highly recommended her for all your boarding and pet sitting needs!!”
“Devorat is an absolute dream. She is truly the pet-parent that you want if you have to be away from your own pet. My dog Mookie stayed with Devorat for 5 days and nights on very short notice. She messaged frequently in the first 24 hours to keep us updated on how Mookie was settling in, and sent plenty of photos during the entire stay. We could tell from the photos that he was clearly comfortable in his home-away-from-home. He and Toby were great playmates in the fenced-in backyard, and he Devorat were fast friends, with plenty of couch cuddle-time. Knowing Mookie was well cared for really helped us enjoy our family trip. In addition to her care and attention to Mookie, Devorat also offered accommodation and flexibility in the drop-off and pick-up scheduling to make things as easy as possible for us as we nailed down our travel plans at the last minute. I really appreciated her communication throughout the visit, and I could tell from her updates that she was really taking time to get to know our dog, and that he was in the best possible hands. We already plan to book with Devorat again soon!”
“Omg, what a great host and sitter. Carolina was so responsive, and communicated everyday about my little one. Provided updates, pictures and videos and even had a safety “if lost” collar for him. Never saw that before and I love the idea! Will book every time I’m in town and need care. Had zero worries. Another great perk is she has a yard so if your pup likes the outdoors, they are safe and can get some sun. Thank you so much!”
“Leanne was great with my mini Golden Doodle. She sent many photos and took very good care of my dog. I will be re-booking in the future. Highly recommend! :)”
“Sarah is an amazing cat sitter! She is very loving and caring and my cats adore her! She send the most beautiful pictures and videos everyday which makes so happy. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Our dog has a great time staying with Kyla! Her family was a perfect fit for our pup while we were away. Kyla was great with communicating and made us feel like our pup was in good hands :)”
“David was absolutely wonderful with Merci and Dolce. I really appreciated the videos and updates he sent—it made being away so much easier and gave me total peace of mind. It was clear they were having an amazing time, and honestly, I think they may have enjoyed being at his house even more than mine! He was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and genuinely caring. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, and I truly can’t say enough good things about him. I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“Pluto LOVED staying with Marie. She sent many photos and kept me updated on Plutos stay. He was cuddled up in most of the photos and had the best time playing with Marie and her husband. Pluto got so much love and lots of treats during his stay. Pluto will be back to see Marie again soon!!”
“Anely took care of Kiran very well. She provides pictures and updates promptly. I really appreciate the great care she provided. She is very affectionate in taking care of Kiran.”
“Bentley and I just moved to Rhode Island, and it’s been a hard transition for him. I’ve been especially anxious about leaving him during this adjustment period, but Yunshu immediately made me feel at ease. From the start, I knew he was in good hands. She sent so many thoughtful pictures and videos, and in every single one he looked happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable. That meant everything to me. It’s clear she truly cares and takes the time to make dogs feel safe and loved. She was wonderful with Bentley, and I’m so incredibly thankful to have found her. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“We are so happy we booked with Ty! Her and her family were so good to our dog Scout and she provided the best updates and pictures. We would definitely book with Ty again ☺️”
“Ashley was great! She was quick to respond to our request for her services. Our dog Tessa stayed with her for 4 nights and seemed very content there. We received many updates with pictures throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Good morning Natalia! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Calvyn! It’s clear that you went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable, happy, and loved. We could tell he was in great hands, and it really put our minds at ease while we were away on the cruise. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you for everything you did an outstanding job! We noticed how happy Calvyn seemed to be when we brought him home. Job well done! Thank you so much we really appreciate it. We would highly recommend you to others! Manny and Addy Marques”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Scituate 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 Scituate.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Scituate 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 RI 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.
