“Kimiko was great! She was very attentive to Sadie’s needs and asked good relevant questions. She sent plenty of photos and made sure she was taken care of. I didn’t have to worry about Sadie at all!”
“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.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Grace! She took wonderful care of our dog Tilly while we were away for our engagement party. From the start, Grace was incredibly responsive and made sure she understood everything she needed to know about Tilly’s care. She checked in on her three times throughout the day and kept us updated with messages and adorable photos during each visit, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear that Tilly was comfortable and happy in her care. We’re so grateful for Grace’s reliability and attentiveness—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter!”
“Our pup is on a food trial and needed to taking medication and each of his poop rated and logged. Rachel was excellent and carrying out all the meticulous instructions consistently and made sure to share pictures and elaborate feedback about each of her visits for three days we needed her help. Needless to say, Loki loved her. I highly recommend her and would definitely rebook”
“Jacey is wonderful with Simon. Highly recommend!”
“Alex was a great help! She was accommodating to meet us ahead of our reservation for a meet and greet. She took pictures during her visits with our cat, and updated us as necessary. So appreciative!”
“Justina was nothing short of exceptional with our babies! As a girl in her late 20s with older parents who were a bit on the fence using Rover, Justina came into the house with care and compassion and gave that same attitude with my girlies. She kept me in the loop with everything going on and made sure they were 100% taken care of while we were all out of town. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Abby and our mini poodle Ruby hit it off immediately. Abby bonded with her right away. She was quick to absorb the details of Ruby's routine and has done a great job! She is a good communicator, very responsible, and quickly responds to all our requests. She has been to our house a few times now and we will definitely have her back. A sign of a good visit - Ruby was calm and contact after and happy to nap the rest of the afternoon.”
About: I’m Haley, an active, dog lovin mom of 3. We haven’t committed to our own family dog yet but we would love to borrow yours! While in our care, your dog will receive plenty of love and attention. Besides having the kids as potential playmates, your pup will also enjoy outside time in the fenced in backyard. I also enjoy going for walks and they are always better with a four legged companion. We love all dogs but must ensure dogs who board with us are a good fit for our family for the duration of their stay. Besides being able to hang with the kiddos, your dog must be okay with not sleeping with us. The couch is fair game, or even with one of the kids but no dogs on our bed :) Lastly, if your dog doesn’t love going for walks or isn’t great on a leash, that’s ok however they need to be able to at least go on a leash for for a bathroom break as we prefer to use the backyard primarily for play as opposed to potty breaks. Any other questions reach out…we look forward to loving your dog as if they are our own! I am currently a stay at home mom so your dog will rarely be left home alone for long stretches of time. Your dog will get plenty of love. Our fury visitors will have full access to the house, they just won’t be allowed to be on our bed. We have a fenced in yard for playtime and live in a quiet area for walks.
“Sarah & Amy are great! They helped watch my cats, one of whom needs a daily pill but is extremely difficult and dramatic about it. And yet they were willing to do what it took to make sure he got it! They were communicative and helpful, and even managed to ger my other cat (who is very shy) to come out of her shell by the end for some pets! Definitely would rebook.”

About: Hi, my name is Diane. I am retired and available to help care for your pets for daily sitting in your home and pet walking. If you have cats, I can do house visits to make sure they have food, water and change their litter box. Being a pet owner, I know how costly boarding facilities can be, not to mention that they are not getting one-on-one attention. I will take very good care of your pet with plenty of play time and I will send you pics daily! I have always had cats and dogs in my life. Currently I have a Beagle and a cat. I have also done international dog sitting. Take me anywhere you travel, so your pet is not alone while you vacation in the states or abroad. Feel free to contact me with any concerns and special needs your pet may have while in my care. I am available to sit with your pet(s) in your home while you are away. Very reliable and please view testimonials for your peace of mind. I am very happy to sit and walk with your pet(s) while you are away. Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have.
“Our dog is a very anxious rescue, it was really important to us to find someone who is patient and understanding. Jacqueline was soo kind and patient! Jacqueline came by a few times before booking to make sure our pup was comfortable. It was really appreciated, I’ll booking with Jacqueline again in the future!”
About: My best buds are Thelma and Louise, two little 5 year old shih tzus who are always ready for some tomfoolery. They’re five years old now and their presence made a world of a difference in my life. After living in Denver for 3 years with friends who not only have pets but love to travel, I’m a trusted pal to help you out too! It would never be the same without their human companion, but I will make sure they feel comfortable and satisfied with their day as their walker/sitter! I work remotely/part time during the early evenings. So I will be on call and available for a walk in the mornings, afternoons, and later evenings! My 2 dogs are crate trained and can easily do the same for your dog! I’m also used to a few different harnesses and leashes and am adaptable to whatever you use!
“Miranda has been wonderful with drop in visits for my dog. She is easy to work with, great communication, reliable, and clearly enjoys her work and spending time with animals.”

“I'm a single dog dad and work long days, so Caeli helps me have peace of mind by taking my pups for their midday walk on days when I can't. She does such a great job with them and I know they are in good hands. Appreciate her help!”
About: Hi there! I’ve had both dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is truly something I love. Whether it’s tossing a ball at the park or just hanging out for some cuddle time, I always make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I’m happy to host dogs in my home, where they’ll enjoy a comfortable, safe space and lots of playtime. For cats, I offer drop-in visits or care in your home, as I currently have a resident cat and a pup who might not be the best match for a visiting feline friend. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home—whether they’re with me or I’m visiting them. I am currently not working so this is going to be my one and only focus. I love animals, I love taking care of animals. I am somewhat disabled so I will be unable to take dogs for a walk but they can play plenty in my backyard. I have a fenced in yard. Both of my dogs use and love. They get plenty of outside time and running around and fetch time.
About: I’ve had and have been around many different kinds of animals since a child. I have trained and cared for animals of all breeds. I have also completed 30+ hours of community service at the Hotel for Homeless Dogs Animal Shelter. I love being active with pets, making sure they feel loved, cared for, and appreciated. I love all animals of all breeds and I always make sure they have the best time when i’m with them! I am a college student so in the Rhode Island area I am only available during the summer and during school breaks. During the school year I spend time doing dog walking and drop in visits. I have a big open yard for animals and a lot of space inside my house. I always make sure the pets are comfortable with me and their environment. I make sure to follow all rules giving by the owners while making sure the pet is in a happy condition.
About: I have always had dogs growing up. They are apart of my family. There is nothing better than coming home to a wagging tail and dog kisses! I have the summer off so I am flexible as needed! I am currently working full time as a school social worker. I spend my afternoons with my dog. I love hiking and walking in the afternoons/weekends/ nights. I currently have a crate in my home. I also have a backyard that is not fenced in. I have a eskipoo puppy at home who is very friendly!
