House Sitting Smith Hill

“We came home to happy, healthy dogs. Michelle was flexible about difficulties we had with travel from the huge storm that blew in just before Christmas which was really helpful.”

Mark A.

“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”

Cristen S.

“Isabel is the best! We felt so confident in Randy’s care while we were away. She was very consistent with sending updates everyday with pictures. Although not her job, we came home and our home was spotless. We appreciate her so much with our anxious baby and she gave updates of how she saw his confidence boost throughout her time with him!”

Alysha P.

“Rebecca is wonderful. She helped us last minute when we needed it and took care of our two pups. One of our dogs is recovering from a surgery and Rebecca did a great job managing his meds and the physical therapy he needed daily. I would 10/10 recommend her and look forward to working with her again the in future.”

Stephanie S.

“Savannah was absolutely wonderful house sitting for penny. She provided lots of updates and pictures and I could tell she truly cared for pen. Definitely will book her again”

Samantha S.

“Patricia is truly a wonderful person and a real dog whisperer! My 2-year-old Bagel can be a little nervous around strangers, but she knew exactly how to read him and quickly win him over. Within minutes of meeting her, he was chasing her around and playing fetch! It’s clear she knows how to make dogs feel comfortable, which made leaving him in her care so much easier and gave me peace of mind while I was away. Patricia stayed at my house to look after Bagel, making him comfortable in his own home while I was away, and I did not have any worries in absence because I knew he was in great hands. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust to care for him, and I really appreciate how easy and stress-free she made the whole experience with constant updates. I can’t recommend Patricia enough to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about their pets!”

“Without a doubt, the best pet (and house) sitting experience we have ever had. Xinwei D. (who goes by Garrett) took extra special care of our aging dog, Bernie, while also leaving our home in better condition than we left it. He followed directions to a T, kept in constant communication and sent pictures and updated every day. He will be out first choice in sitters every time. Honestly, we couldn't have taken better care of Bernie ourselves, and being gone for a week knowing someone competent and compassionate was back at home taking care of everything gave us unmatched peace of mind. If he's available, book him for your next drop-in or house sit. You won't be disappointed. Thank you, Garrett!”

Jeff D.

“Emma was amazing. She took such great care of the pets and house. The videos and photos were so nice to receive and I knew my dog and cats were in good hands.”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have been caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Beyond pet sitting, I’ve worked at an SPCA and at a zoo, where I gained hands-on experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals. I also study animals professionally, so understanding animal behavior and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood is something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable with animals of all personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m a graduate student with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m generally available for dog walks in the mornings and evenings, and I have flexibility during the day depending on my class and research schedule. I’m also available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care! I live on the top floor of a house with plenty of space for pets to relax and a small yard for some outdoor time. I also have a very friendly cat who loves dogs and other animals, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a multi-animal home.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, and for the past several years I’ve specialized in seniors and small, medium breeds, including my own 11-year-old Yorkie with heart and airway conditions. I’m confident with medications, gentle routines, and multi-day stays, and I currently sit regularly for repeat clients in Providence. I run my own practice from home, so my schedule is flexible and pets are rarely alone. My days are built around routine, morning walks, midday breaks, and calm evenings. Guest dogs join my daily rhythm naturally, with consistent feeding times, multiple walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day In my home, I host one guest at a time in a calm, quiet space with supervised indoor time and secure, leashed walks. In your home, I follow your routines, feeding times, medications, and house rules. I always start with a meet and greet, keep dogs leashed or secured at all times, and send regular photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing.

“JL and Daina were super great with our dog, Otis! He was chill and easy to work with for scheduling, very quick to respond to messages. He sent adorable pics for us while we were gone :) We will definitely be booking him again next time we go out of town and can’t bring our sidekick along!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without pets. I worked at a veterinary clinic in high school, where I gained hands-on experience with basic animal care, handling, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. For the past 8 years, I’ve consistently pet sat for friends, family, and clients, caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, ages, and needs. I’ve always had pets growing up, so being attentive, patient, and tuned in to animals’ routines comes naturally to me. I treat every pet I care for like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m a PhD student at Brown University- so I teach and take classes, but my schedule is pretty flexible as I’m only on campus during a class or for office hours. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and care instructions closely, and I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly if anything seems off. I keep the home tidy, refresh food and water bowls, clean up after walks or litter boxes, and ensure your pet’s environment stays safe and calm. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel at ease, knowing your pet is well cared for in their own space.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and friends’ pets since I was 13. I love animals, and have had added experience working with senior dogs within the last few years as my own little ones are in their golden years! I am currently in grad school, so my availability can fluctuate monthly. I am typically available on weekends and week nights, but depending on the week/month I can be available during some week days as well. My apartment complex has plenty of grassy areas and our own fenced in dog park! The complex is also located in a very suburban area with plenty of quiet streets to go on walks. Your pet’s safety is my priority, and whether I go to them or they come to me, I will make sure they’re safe (and also feel safe)!

About: I have assisted my mom’s dog care business for 15+ years taking care of dogs of every kind by walking, in home sitting, playing, feeding, etc I am available everyday most early mornings, middays and evenings for walking and nights especially on the weekends for house sitting. I walk a lot everyday so adding a dog would make it even better! I am very experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes. I can provide safe and reliable transportation for your dogs, and treats too!

About: Over the past many years, I've loved providing care to dogs and cats alike. I have lots of experience with dog walking and cat sitting, and I would love to offer the best care to your loved companion. I am currently in my final year of medical school at Brown University Medical School. My student schedule allows me to be very flexible and I would love to help care for your pet! For my own pet, I love spending quality time with her and making sure she gets fed at the same times each day, gets lots of play time, and knows she is loved. I will always be careful with your home and your companion, and would be happy to answer and more questions or provide more information to help you feel the most safe!

“I don't even know where to begin with how wonderful Ariel is! She took amazing care of our handful of a dog for 4 days while we were away and went above and beyond! She was very respectful of our home, which she offered to stay over to give our dog more company. She was very informative and communicating with me about everything from his feeding, bathroom breaks, and hours so would come and go. She asked great questions and genuinely cared about caring for our dog and interacting with him. I would highly recommend using Ariel for your pet sitting needs. I hope to be able to have her watch our dog again before the end of summer. 5+ stars for Ariel!”

Lindsey K.

“Samantha is a great pet and house sitter. She took care of my dog and cats with great care and attention. Everyone was healthy and fine when we came home. The house was well taken care of as well, clean and neat. The communication was also very good, pictures sent and response time was also prompt. I defiinitely recommend her and would hire her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of so many different types of animals growing up. I have always had a compassion for caring for animals and providing them with the love and care that they deserve. I am currently a student in college who works part time, while taking in online classes. So a lot of my time will be spent creating bonds with your beloved animals! I can follow any certain safety procedures and make sure your fuzzy friend stays safer than ever, because that’s what I would want with my babies.

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.

About: Hi! My names Brianna and I’m your pets new best friend! I am a 25 year old vegan that was raised by a mom that worked in an animal sanctuary out on the West Coast. When we moved here to Rhode Island, my mom continued to be a vet tech and brought her love of animals home while we fostered all kinds! My love for animals alongside learning to care for them is not only in my blood, but began at a very young age. I have 12 pets of my own at home! Cats, reptiles, ferrets, spiders, and a fish tank! I’m also experienced in working with older, nervous, and young animals. I’m so excited to get to know your pet(s). Please feel free to inquire about daily/weekly/bi-weekly visits etc. getting to know your animals on a more personal level will make everything smoother for everyone involved and I’d love to be a long term friend. There’s nothing more rewarding than earning an animals trust. From high energy babies to senior care, I’m excited to build a trusting bond with any animal I meet! My visits will include plenty of love, fresh food and water, some treats if granted permission, potty breaks and walks, litter scooping if required, and whatever type of play time or cuddles they prefer (including just being fed and left alone!) I tailor my visits to their specific pace. I am reliable with strict feeding schedules, and administering medications if needed, including shots, oral pills and oral liquids. My top priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress free in their own environment while giving you total peace of mind with regular photo and text updates! * I’m willing to care for any animals! So let me know if you have reptiles, small mammals etc. Looking for house sitting? I’m also a plant girly! I work from home in social media marketing and create my own schedule, so I am available for same day visits and can work from wherever! I’m basically always on call for those last minute drop ins. I also love being outdoors and set aside time to go for walks myself every day, so taking a dog along with me would make what I already do even better. I have experience with ALL types of animals so there is no request that will be new to me. My own home has reptiles, cats, arachnids, and I’ve fostered dogs before! Have something specific your pet wants? I’m all ears! There’s nothing to big, small, or “weird” for me.
