About: I have had dogs since I was a child. I adopted a Golden Retriever from the South before I married and then adopted another dog (Springer/Brittany mix) from the shelter once I was married. He was the best $25 I ever spent!! He was like my best friend! Then we rescued a German Short Haired Pointer- what a love ! Those boys were very active and required daily runs! I took care of them both until they passed away. When they left us, we rescued two English Setters from Turkey. They are hands down my absolute sweethearts. They are 10 and 12 now. We aren’t running the beach anymore, but we are very happy with long walks in the woods. They are so spoiled - sleep by the fire, sleep in bed with us, sleep in my car- it’s like their crate and they absolutely love to be in it. I also had a cat that I rescued who lived 8 years with us until he passed away and now I have a barn cat. I feed her nightly, but I’m positive I’ve been feeding an opossum for some time! We have met a couple of times- from a distance! I feed her, talk to her nicely and let her be. I have also taken care of my neighbor’s Irish Wolf Hound when my neighbor had long days of doctor appointments in Boston. I am excited to start taking care of cats and dogs for more people. I know what it’s like to need someone you can trust. My pets are like my children! I am obsessed with their well being. I want them to be happy, safe, well fed, exercised and loved all the time!!! I promise to take the best care of your pet and give them all the love they need when you can’t be home. I am very dependable, patient and trustworthy. I was a preschool special education teacher in Providence for 16 years before I became a stay at home mom. My kids are teens now, so have some time to devote to pet care. I'm currently a stay at home mom and I help my parents out as well. I have plenty of time to pop in for walks, bathroom breaks, feeding, playing and giving lots of LOVE to your pet! I will follow your directions "down to a T." I will give your pets lots of love and keep them safe while you are away! I am super trustworthy, dependable, kind and patient.
About: I have been a dedicated dog owner for the past 8 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior pets. I regularly helped care for my brother’s 16-year-old dog, gaining valuable experience with the extra patience, attention, and support that older dogs require. In addition, I have been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors since high school. I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and loving care so your pet feels comfortable and happy while you’re away. As a PA student, my schedule changes monthly, but I often work only three 12-hour shifts per week. This gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for pet care during weekdays and weekends. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, medications, or just extra cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of love and attention. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing!
“Hayley is the absolute best. Our pets love her, and we’ve been using her for some time now. She always goes above and beyond, and leave great notes about each check in.”
“Erica was great. On time every day and communication was excellent. Dogs loved her and she handled two 90lb dogs walking same time that tend to pull and not be super dog friendly.”
“Deanna was an absolute gem as my dog sitter. My dog, Koji, and I feel so lucky to have found her. She is a truly kind and wonderful person who provided thoughtful, gentle, and loving care to my senior dog. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Koji was in such capable and compassionate hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Deanna’s services.”
“Tallyn was able to accommodate my last minute request. She was very responsive and took great care of my dog. It is apparent from the pictures she sent that Daisy made a new friend. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Shannon has been walking our German Shepard for a few years and is so responsive, flexible, and knowledgeable, especially with our alarm system and use of prong collar for walking. She always gives great updates, and our dog loves her so much! Highly recommend Shannon!”
“Mike was prompt and so patient with my granddog. Cash wasn’t cooperating and was very anxious, but Mike was willing to spend more time getting the dog to feel more comfortable. I really appreciated his effort. I would definitely use Mike again”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover | 13+ Years Experience | Trusted, Loving, Down-to-Earth Care (As a heads up, my pricing per night for pet/house sitting covers two pets ($86/night 2 pets & house sitting) if you have more than two pets, you can add them via the add on option here on rover for an additional $15/night per pet.) Hi! I’m Victoria and I am a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of experience caring for pets and keeping homes clean, safe, and peaceful. I’m based in Wakefield, Rhode Island, where I also run my own cleaning business, so I know how to keep things tidy and tail-wagging happy. I’ve worked in a doggy daycare and grooming shop, have volunteered with horses, and have experience with everything from puppies and senior pets to special needs animals and even reptiles. I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether I’m house sitting, walking your pup, or dropping in to check on your pets, I bring love, patience, and a calm, grounded energy. I’m gentle but firm, the worst your pup might ever hear from me is my “big girl voice” (loving, but clear). My job is to keep your pet healthy, happy and safe. I’m also great at reading animal behavior, administering meds, and handling routines with care. I currently share my home with three sweet cats, and I totally understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I'm here to give you peace of mind while you're away, and to make sure your pets feel safe, seen, and cared for. Let me know if you have any questions or want to set up a meet & greet. I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly!) family! As a heads up, my pricing per night for pet/house sitting covers two pets ($86/night 2 pets & house sitting) if you have more than two pets, you can add them via the add on option here on rover for an additional $15/night per pet. I currently work a per diem position and run my own business, which gives me the flexibility to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs. Whether you need early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with your routine and create a plan that works best for you and your furry family. Just send me a message with your ideal times, and I’ll do my best to make it happen, your pet’s comfort and consistency come first!

About: I've taken care of my neighbors cats and dogs since I was 13 years old. I have taken care of pups and seniors dogs/cats! They rely on me to walk, feed and entertain them. I am very flexible with scheduling. Im available weekdays and weekends at any time and place. Let me know what works for you and we can figure something out! I have 3 dogs (2 young labradoodles and a senior shitzu). I feed them and take them for walks daily. My senior dog needs extra care such as diaper changing and making soft food for him. I can feed, walk, entertain and bathe your pet.
“I couldn't be happier with Heather taking care of my energetic Jack Russell Phineas yesterday. She was kind to listen to and quell my nervous dog mom concerns and communicated with me promptly every time. She took him for an extended walk/run which he clearly loved and did great. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!”
About: Hi, I'm a Wildlife Conservation, Animal Behavior and Biology undergrad that LOVES being outside! I have grown up alongside animals my entire life, and I know how to recognize behavioral signs before the reactions occur. I have experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, cats, barnyard friends, and exotic reptiles/birds/mammals etc... I am very seasoned in the patience department, and I love making fun puzzles with treats or toys. I frequently go on long walks/runs with energetic animals, and I've got a mean overhand throw that is guaranteed to tire them out! With senior animals, I like to read out loud to them and sunbathe out in the yard (if they are outdoor pets). I am also able to take pups out on field trips to the beach and hikes :) I live by the fact that all animals deserve the upmost respect, love, and support. I have dedicated my life to conserve the animals that populate the Earth and the habitat they depend on. I look forward to the next adventure with you and your pet! I am incredibly flexible with my travel radius and scheduling, reach out with any questions! I am a full-time student at URI and have senior-intensive classes during the week. My schedule is pretty flexible, please don't hesitate to reach out! I simply ask for open communication and kindness when scheduling/canceling. I am only in RI when school is in session. I will follow any directions given by the pet/homeowner. I treat any space I'm in with the utmost respect-it's your home and your safe space. I can provide a variety of services, don't hesitate to reach out and we can coordinate based on your needs!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Kingstown
Isabelle was terrific with Arny! We really needed help getting Arny more exercise after we welcomed twins into our life a few months ago. He is a high energy pup and now comes home after every walk tired and happy. Arny also has some special behaviors that need help managing. He can be very interested in squirrels and bunnies and has some leash anxiety around other dogs, and we have complete trust in Isabelle to manage and keep Arny and others safe. We would highly recommend Isabelle to anyone looking for someone reliable that they can trust to walk their pup!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in South Kingstown on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,857 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across South Kingstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your South Kingstown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in South Kingstown.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Kingstown. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 99% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
