“Jessica was awesome. She took great care of our lab. She updated us daily with pictures and a short message. Our dog returned so happy and clean. I highly recommend Jessica. She really cares for these beautiful animals.”
“Our dog loves going on vacation to Suzanne’s. He was so happy to see her and who could blame him? He gets exercise, snuggles, and a family away from home. Suzanne is very thoughtful about meeting our dogs unique needs and keeping us updated with his activities and some very cute photos. We’ll continue to book Suzanne as long as she is available.”
“Dogs were in heaven, they look happy and relaxed when we pick them up. Thanks to Erica and her family for the amounts of love and attention given to our beloved pups. Thanks for the constant updates and pictures shared with us from them. We absolutely love Erica and her family and plans to book pet sitter again with them soon. They are the best addition to our family !!!”
“I’m so lucky to have found Leanne and her family! I never have to worry when my dogs are staying with them, they have a lot of experience handling multiple dogs who have their own quirks too!”
“Karen was wonderful! So communicative with care to detail and what is best for our dog. She sent pics of how happy our dog was each day. Very accommodating with requests. Look forward to booking 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”
“David was extremely responsive to my questions and concerns even before I dropped off Bean. She is a lovebug but can be nervous. I was a little bit worried about dropping her off with someone she didn’t know for an overnight but David sent me a video of their walk soon after I left and she was very happy. I got more pictures of her smuggling on the couch and knew the only problem would be making her leave to come home with me. I’m happy to have found David and it’s worth the 25 minute drive from Providence. He has a big fenced yard and beautiful neighborhood.”
“Yunshu did an amazing job dog sitting Theo! She kept me updated multiple times a day with pictures and detailed messages, which really put my mind at ease. Her whole family was incredibly welcoming and treated Theo like one of their own. She was also very flexible and understanding throughout the whole process. Plus, her neighborhood felt very safe, which was a big plus. I highly recommend Yunshu—Theo had a wonderful time! Thank you guys so much!!”
“Dana is a sweet woman and Enzo was comfortable staying there for his first time. She communicated to let me know how Enzo was doing since I was worried initially. I would gladly leave my buddy there again!”
“We have used Elizabeth a few times and are so grateful to have found a Rover (and her family) that are so great with our two dogs, Harry and Jules! Highly recommend Elizabeth if you’re looking for someone to take extra special care of your best buddies!”
“Another wonderful stay at Debby’s! Our 1.5 year old poodle (Mookie) just returned from his second Rover stay with Debby. I enjoyed perfect peace of mind during my family’s 4 day trip thanks to all the updates, photos, and videos that she sends each day. I could see that he was eating, playing energetically with the other dogs (in her grassy fenced-in yard), napping on the cool floor on a hot day (just like he does at home), and cuddling up on the couch with Debby in the evenings. At pick up and drop off, it is clear that Mookie adores Debby, and that they have their own special connection. Debby’s genuine affection for her clients gives both Mookie and me a sense of peace and comfort while we are apart!”
“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 :)”
“This was my first time using Rover/dog sitter and I was nervous leaving my two girls with strangers. After doing a meet and greet with the sitter I felt I made the right decision and was less nervous. I love the care they received with the sitter and their family. Daily updates, pictures and videos showed me just how happy my girls were. I will definitely book with Francis E and her family again, without any hesitation.”
“First of all, if I could give Keasha 10 stars, I absolutely would. I don’t have enough words to express how grateful I am for the exceptional care she gave my dog. She sent me pictures almost every day, and sometimes even more than once a day, while keeping us updated on how he was doing. In every picture, I could see how happy and comfortable my dog was, and that gave us so much peace of mind. It truly showed how well she cared for him. The next time I need boarding for my dog, I will definitely contact Keasha again without hesitation. She exceeded all of our expectations. Keasha, thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my little one. We truly appreciate everything you did. God bless you!”
“What a pleasure! Skyla was very welcoming and kind. This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone and she definitely eased my worries. She was excellent and communicated regularly. She sent me photos and took amazing care of my Lila.”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old puppy Bo. Samantha is amazing!!! She took such great care of Bo! He arrived to her with a fear of stairs from slipping on a couple of steps recently. Samantha worked on his fear while he was with her. He is a little timid still, but since getting home yesterday from Samantha’s, he went up and down with no problem. She even gave us tips and tricks to use if he was reluctant. He enjoyed walks with Samantha and has a new friend, her dog Mac and got to enjoy playing with him. We were updated daily and I had no worries @ all while we were away. We will definitely use her again!”

“This was our first time working with Olivia and she was absolutely amazing! Our kitties were fed, played with, cared for, cuddled, and loved daily. Our Siberian cat is generally skittish with strangers and takes a while to warm up. To our surprise, Ruby was immediately obsessed with Olivia! We were able to relax during our trip knowing our cats were well taken care of. We cannot say enough great things about our experience and could not recommend Olivia more. She is respectful, honest, kind, timely, and a true animal lover. She will be our pet sitter for all future travel plans :)”
“There are not even words for how wonderful of a pet sitter Sarah is! This was my first time using rover and I was very hesitant but Sarah has gained life long customers. Our cat is hesitant of newcomers and took right to her. She is so attentive and sends the best in detail daily updates with adorable pictures. I can’t recommend her enough and we are so thankful to have found her on rover!”
“Nicole is a wonderful sitter! She watched my cat Otis for me semi last minute on a holiday weekend. He is a shy kitty but he was comfortable with her immediately. She was on time, communicative, and super sweet. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany was a great cat sitter for our cat Vinny! She provided play time, regular feeding and litter changes, and went above and beyond by sending 5 pictures a day during and after her visits. We really appreciated how communicative she was and would hire her again in a second. Last but not least, her prices for cat sitting are incredibly affordable. Book her!”
“Amanda is kind and caring. I trust her to care for my precious pets. We’ve used her services twice and are quite pleased. I highly recommend her. Thank you Amanda/Rover.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Great experience. First time using Rover. Mariah was super friendly. We met prior to my trip and she was great with Ivy my cat. Ivy took right too her. I was very happy with the process. I’d definitely book her again.”
“Natalie was so reliable and we felt that our fur baby and home were both very well cared for. She picks up on all care instructions quickly, tailored check-ins to our preferences, and went above and beyond. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Emily is amazing with our two cats; one spicy senior and a big boy who misses his mom. In the past I have worried about leaving them when we travel but now that Emily watches them, I know they're getting the very best care. She goes above and beyond to give them the attention they need while we're away and getting her daily reports and photos is so reassuring! Thanks so much Emily! 😸😻”
About: I've always loved cats, and as a child, house sat cats for friends and family. I got my first boy in 2004, and have several since. While I'm currently a dog owner, cats always find me, and i make sure i find them, to love! Experienced with several health issues, but have not administered shots.
“Ashley did a great job with my puppy. She is so kind and was proactive in asking where items were in case he had an accident and cleaned up his mess. I would definitely book her again.”
About: As a lifelong cat owner, my top priority is delivering exceptional care to ensure both you and your kitty feel completely comfortable and at ease. In addition to my private pet care services, I work at a dog and cat boarding facility, where I've gained experience reading unique feline personalities and adapting to their individual needs. I am also fully trained and experienced in administering both oral and subcutaneous medications safely and stress-free.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals of all kinds. I grew up on a 118-acre hobby farm, where caring for animals was part of everyday life and where my passion for animal care first began. I went to school to become a veterinary assistant and have continued working with animals throughout my adult life, giving me experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and care needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, and working with animals that may need extra patience, attention, or specialized care. I currently have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pets while you’re away. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I treat every pet like family and strive to provide reliable, compassionate, and stress-free care for both pets and their owners.
About: I own a small farm, have 3 labs and a cat. Have been a dog and cat lover all my life and would love to care for yours!! I work full time, so I am available after 4pm mon, weds, thurs, and Saturday for walks and drop ins. Any ages or breeds welcome! More than willing to care for your dog or cat in your home, as well as walking, fetch, swimming as appropriate seasonally. Let me know what your fur baby needs!
About: I grew up with four dogs over the past ten years! Friends and neighbors relied on me to walk and feed their pets and pet sit. I am currently a grad student going to clinical. I am available in the evenings Monday/Wednesday through Sunday! On Tuesdays, I am available during the day! I live in the Fox Point neighborhood and I feel comfortable walking and or running with your pet. I will treat your pet & home with love!
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.

About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
“Dani was amazing! Took my dog to her 3x and she was excited each time. Photos and updates were sent without asking. I would definitely book anytime to take care of my fur baby. I highly recommend.”
“Jessica was communicative and flexible and I feel so lucky we were able to book her on short notice, she really saved the day! My dog was relaxed and tired when she came home, which says a lot, she is a very anxious dog and I am so grateful when we find sitters who put her at ease. Thank you Jessica!”
“Thank you so much for taking the time and patience to enjoy Ocean and help ease my worry as well! Once he got home took a long nap I know he enjoyed himself. Looking forward to next visit in few weeks!”
“It’s obvious why there are so many high reviews for Briana! She took great care of Caroline and was very honest in her feedback about where Caroline has room to grow and how I can help her get there. I love that level of candor and I appreciated the time she took to walk me through her recommendations for additional training and socialization. Looking forward to Caroline becoming a regular of hers and learning the best manners from her dogs.”
“I came into the area for the day and Elizabeth was so wonderful to watch my dog Daisy. She has such a lovely home and family. I would absolutely 💯% recommend Elizabeth. Daisy had a great day in her care!”
“Anely is an excellent sitter very warm ,affectionate and accomodating . We were traveling through Providence and had to keep our dog Cookie with her for two days consecutively and this was our first time with her. She absolutely made sure Cookie felt at home with her and also provided him with food ,walk ,toys plays etc. Cookie usually has anxiety issues at times so we were bit picky about choosing the right kind of day boarding for him. But Anely was a perfect choice.Though she was sitting few more dogs on those days but that never became an issue for our Cookie, so needless to say she is also expert at her job. It was because of Anely that we could enjoy Newport and other attractions of RI so much without having to worry about how Cookie is doing. She also sent us hourly updates with pictures over texts. I strongly recommend Anely to all other pet parents. Thank you so much.”
“As a newcomer to Connecticut, I needed a dog sitter on short notice and was initially anxious about leaving my dog, Gingi. However, Jessica exceeded all my expectations. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism and kindness, providing regular updates without any prompting. Receiving photos of Gingi during my lunch breaks reassured me that he was well cared for and enjoying himself. Additionally, Gingi always smelled wonderful when I picked him up. I will definitely continue to book with her in the future. Highly recommended—10/10”
“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”

I provide a calm, structured, kennel-free home where dogs are treated like family — not boarded in a facility. I have one friendly English Lab, Gracey, and four cats. I have extensive experience managing a multi-pet household and always prioritize safe, slow introductions and proper separation when needed to ensure every pet feels comfortable and secure. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is fully supervised using secure tethers or leashes for safety. I am comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, senior care, and tailoring each stay to your dog’s specific needs. I am the primary caregiver, but my 14-year-old daughter also helps and has grown up around animals, including 10 years of rescue and fostering experience. She is gentle, attentive, and always supervised. I also offer drop-in visits in the Scituate, RI area for dogs who prefer to stay in their own home. You’ll receive daily photo and video updates, along with clear communication, so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I structure my day around the pets in my care to keep their routine as close to home as possible. This includes feeding schedules, outdoor time, walks, and rest. I am available for boarding, drop-ins in the Scituate, RI area, and can accommodate weekday and weekend care. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable routine so your pet feels safe and comfortable during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I bring a naturally calm, grounded presence into every home I enter. Pets are incredibly intuitive, and I prioritize creating a peaceful, steady environment where they feel safe and secure. Whether your dog is anxious, high-energy, or just needs consistency, I focus on maintaining a structured routine with patience and gentle guidance. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and comfortable, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in stable, attentive hands. I’m currently in school and have a lot of time in between classes! I have tons of times to take care of your best friends! When pets stay in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment with consistent routines to help them settle in smoothly. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play, and I always monitor pets while outside. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers a crate for rest, I can easily accommodate that to maintain their normal routine. My goal is to create a peaceful, secure space where your pet feels at ease while you’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Rae! I’m a pet-obsessed U.S. Navy veteran, professional dog groomer by trade, and lifelong animal person with hands-on experience caring for animals of all types, sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Growing up, I had all kinds of animals to learn from, from small pets to much larger ones. Working professionally with dogs has taught me patience, how to read body language, recognize when a dog is stressed or uncomfortable, and adjust my approach to help them feel safe. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, nervous dogs, high-energy breeds, and multi-pet households. At home, I have an Australian Shepherd, a Miniature Schnauzer, and three cats of my own — and I would absolutely have more if I didn’t have a husband to keep me in check. Each of my pets has their own unique quirks and I’m very familiar with managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’ll treat your pets the way I’d want someone to treat mine: with patience, attention, lots of love, and plenty of updates for you! work as a professional dog groomer, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. My schedule varies throughout the week, which gives me flexibility for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. When I’m caring for your pet, I’ll make sure their normal feeding, potty, exercise, medication, and bedtime routines are kept as consistent as possible. I’m also happy to accommodate pets who need a little more structure, extra exercise, or simply more one-on-one attention. Safety is always my first priority. As a professional groomer, I’m very comfortable reading animal body language and recognizing when a pet is nervous, overwhelmed, or needs space. In my home, I have a securely fenced yard as well as resident dogs and cats, so introductions and interactions are handled carefully rather than assuming every animal will immediately be best friends. Pets can be separated for meals, downtime, or whenever needed, and I’m comfortable using crates or pens when that is already part of their routine. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your normal routine and house rules as closely as possible so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment.
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.
About: I grew up with four dogs over the past ten years! Friends and neighbors relied on me to walk and feed their pets and pet sit. I am currently a grad student going to clinical. I am available in the evenings Monday/Wednesday through Sunday! On Tuesdays, I am available during the day! I live in the Fox Point neighborhood and I feel comfortable walking and or running with your pet. I will treat your pet & home with love!

“Jessica was awesome. She took great care of our lab. She updated us daily with pictures and a short message. Our dog returned so happy and clean. I highly recommend Jessica. She really cares for these beautiful animals.”
“Our dog loves going on vacation to Suzanne’s. He was so happy to see her and who could blame him? He gets exercise, snuggles, and a family away from home. Suzanne is very thoughtful about meeting our dogs unique needs and keeping us updated with his activities and some very cute photos. We’ll continue to book Suzanne as long as she is available.”
“Dogs were in heaven, they look happy and relaxed when we pick them up. Thanks to Erica and her family for the amounts of love and attention given to our beloved pups. Thanks for the constant updates and pictures shared with us from them. We absolutely love Erica and her family and plans to book pet sitter again with them soon. They are the best addition to our family !!!”
“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”
“David was extremely responsive to my questions and concerns even before I dropped off Bean. She is a lovebug but can be nervous. I was a little bit worried about dropping her off with someone she didn’t know for an overnight but David sent me a video of their walk soon after I left and she was very happy. I got more pictures of her smuggling on the couch and knew the only problem would be making her leave to come home with me. I’m happy to have found David and it’s worth the 25 minute drive from Providence. He has a big fenced yard and beautiful neighborhood.”
“Dana is a sweet woman and Enzo was comfortable staying there for his first time. She communicated to let me know how Enzo was doing since I was worried initially. I would gladly leave my buddy there again!”
“We have used Elizabeth a few times and are so grateful to have found a Rover (and her family) that are so great with our two dogs, Harry and Jules! Highly recommend Elizabeth if you’re looking for someone to take extra special care of your best buddies!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Another wonderful stay at Debby’s! Our 1.5 year old poodle (Mookie) just returned from his second Rover stay with Debby. I enjoyed perfect peace of mind during my family’s 4 day trip thanks to all the updates, photos, and videos that she sends each day. I could see that he was eating, playing energetically with the other dogs (in her grassy fenced-in yard), napping on the cool floor on a hot day (just like he does at home), and cuddling up on the couch with Debby in the evenings. At pick up and drop off, it is clear that Mookie adores Debby, and that they have their own special connection. Debby’s genuine affection for her clients gives both Mookie and me a sense of peace and comfort while we are apart!”
“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 :)”
“Dani took great care of my baby! She was very flexible and accommodating. She and her family provided a loving, comfortable, and nurturing home environment during his stay. She provided so many pictures and updates throughout each day. Dani catered to changes in his diet and even cooked homemade food to his liking. To say she spoiled him would be an understatement! I definitely recommend the care in her home to any pet parent!”
“This was my first time using Rover/dog sitter and I was nervous leaving my two girls with strangers. After doing a meet and greet with the sitter I felt I made the right decision and was less nervous. I love the care they received with the sitter and their family. Daily updates, pictures and videos showed me just how happy my girls were. I will definitely book with Francis E and her family again, without any hesitation.”
“What a pleasure! Skyla was very welcoming and kind. This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone and she definitely eased my worries. She was excellent and communicated regularly. She sent me photos and took amazing care of my Lila.”
“Rafael took amazing care of our dog, Zelda. She is a very shy and fearful dog, and this was her first time staying with a dog sitter. He was incredibly patient with her and helped her build trust and feel safe during her stay. He also helped her become more comfortable around other dogs, which meant a lot to us. Rafael was always quick to respond, speaks both English and Spanish, and kept us updated with beautiful photos throughout Zelda's stay. He was kind, enthusiastic, respectful, and very understanding. What we appreciated the most was that he accepted our last-minute booking, which helped us so much. We are extremely happy with the care Zelda received and will definitely book with Rafael again for both boarding and daycare. We highly recommend him!”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old puppy Bo. Samantha is amazing!!! She took such great care of Bo! He arrived to her with a fear of stairs from slipping on a couple of steps recently. Samantha worked on his fear while he was with her. He is a little timid still, but since getting home yesterday from Samantha’s, he went up and down with no problem. She even gave us tips and tricks to use if he was reluctant. He enjoyed walks with Samantha and has a new friend, her dog Mac and got to enjoy playing with him. We were updated daily and I had no worries @ all while we were away. We will definitely use her again!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Trixie! It’s greatly appreciated. While we hate leaving her, knowing someone else cares for her as much as we do makes it a little easier.”
“Copper and Bentley are never away from home but this Christmas I had to leave them with Dawn to accommodate all my daughters' visiting dogs. Dawn not only made them feel at ease, she made ME feel at ease - assuring me they would be fine and sending me pictures to verify that they were. Definitely recommend Dawn and will use her services again!”
