“Natalia was great about sending pictures and videos of my dog while I was away. It was our first time leaving her and she helped put my mind at ease, and it made my kids happy to know their dog was well taken care of!”
“Leanne and Michael were amazing! They took great care of our senior dog and sent tons of updates and pictures while we were away. I truly appreciate the care they took with our dog. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“Jessica is fabulous. Bashi loved being at her home and she took such good care of her. I was able to relax and not worry about Bashi on my away weekend. If I need to board her again I will call on Jessica”
“We were very happy with Karen! She sent us daily updates on our dogs and pictures. She seemed to get to know our dogs right away and what their behavior was like. It’s was comforting to know she was paying such close attention to their needs. I would highly recommend Karen as a dog sitter”
“I'm fortunate to have found Celina when I needed a pet sitter for the weekend! It was a pleasure meeting them, as they were kind and understanding when I expressed my concerns about Otto and leaving him in a new environment. I liked that they spend the time to get to know me and my pup before committing. Smokey is also a great pup, he's so sweet and clever and it was great watching him adapt his play with Otto. It's also clear that Celina and Smokey have a great relationship and love each other a bunch. They do great with establishing boundaries and advocating for the pups when it's needed. Celina also sent me photos of Otto's stay, which were all adorable to see! Communication was easy and simple, which I'm very appreciative of. Overall, it was a great experience working with them and I will definitely book again :)”
“Henry loved his stay with Keisha! She was all and more than I could of expected I am absolutely pleased with Keasha and highly recommend her We will surely call on her again ??”
“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!”
“Kyleigh was FABULOUS with our little dog, Bear! Bear can be anxious with new surroundings and people but Kyleigh clearly went above and beyond to settle her in. She sent us lots of pictures of Bear, gave her lots of attention and cuddles, and Bear looked very content! Bear also takes medication twice a day and Kyleigh handled it all. I will definitely rebook Kyleigh happily and highly recommend her! Thank you, Kyleigh!”
“Cathleen took wonderful care of my pups, one of which is a blind and deaf senior lady who needs meds several times a day and one a little rascal! They told me they had a great time and that they couldn’t wait to go back! Thanks Cathleen for making my time away stress free regarding my babies.”
“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.”
“Jean is an absolutely lovely lady and I felt so comfortable leaving my Lil Emmett with her while I was in Montana. She sent pictures and updated me daily about Emmett. I appreciate her and will definitely book with her in the future. 🐶🐾🌸💕”
“Carolina is simply amazing. She is so accommodating and trustworthy. I had at least two updates, pictures, and videos of my little guy. Her family is wonderful, loving, and caring. I will be using her again on our next vacation.”
“David is always patience with my reminders and questions. He puts me at ease with leaving my two punky poodles with him and they absolutely love him. So grateful we found a sitter who cares for furbabies like his own. Thank you and will be rebooking again for sure!”
“Anely was so great with Gracie. She sent frequent picture updates throughout her stay and every picture she looked so happy. Highly recommend Anely to anyone looking for a sitter who goes above and beyond!”

“We are so happy with Gabriela’s care! She offered a free meet & greet so she could be introduced to Bagheera in a calm and relaxing way. She was so thorough with asking questions and taking notes. It was clear she is both knowledgeable and passionate about caring for cats! We felt really comfortable after meeting her.

About: I have worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility in North Kingstown for more than 10 years! Due to my experience, I have worked with dogs of all sizes, shapes, ages, personalities, etc. Between the dogs at my job, the care I have done for clients through Rover in the past and my own pets at home, I have a ton of experience caring for animals. I will treat your pets as if they were my own! I work the afternoon/evening shift at my job, but my mornings are open to those who are looking for pet care on the earlier side! I do have some weekend availability. Don't hesitate to send a message, and I can try to accommodate to the best of my ability! I will take your pet for a nice walk (at their pace, for their comfort) around the neighborhood or to their favorite spot, or spend my time playing/giving company to your pet when you're not home. My attention stays on the animal at all times as you never know what pets will try to get into. If there are any concerns, I will immediately notify you and thoroughly check the animal if necessary (to their comfort level, I will not push an animal to let me examine them but will promptly let owners know of any concerns and take necessary steps to ensure the animals safety.) I can offer water or food at your request and give medication if ever needed with your instructions.
About: I've lived with and cared for cats since I was born (truly starting to take care of them and help out around age 10). My friends always call me to watch their cats when they're on vacation, because they know I'll always provide whatever care is necessary. Whether the cat is super chill, playful, or would rather I not exist, I do whatever your cat needs while you're out - and daily pictures of your pets are always included! Trust me with your cat and have no worries while you're away.
“Jamie has been my go-to sitter for a while now and she’s amazing. Finn the cat recognizes her every time and runs to her which is huge for me. I will definitely continue to contact her when I need her help!”
“I cannot recommend Victoria highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a true passion for animals and a natural ability to connect with them. My heard of pets instantly warmed up to her which is a rarity! Throughout the entire time I was away, I felt completely at ease knowing my beloved heard were in such capable hands. Victoria went above and beyond to ensure that my pets were not only well cared for but also genuinely happy. she provided regular updates with photos and showing my pets playing, eating, and relaxing—clearly having a great time. They followed all instructions to a tee, were punctual, and left my home spotless.

I will definitely be booking Victoria again for future trips! Thank you, Victoria for being such a fantastic pet sitter! My heard and I are so grateful! ❤️🫶🏽❤️”
“Renee took great care of our elderly cat who is on end if life care.

About: I have lived with, raised, and cared for multiple dogs at once for my entire life. I have grown up with retrievers, shibas, Rhodesian ridgebacks, and all manner of rescues. As a dog sitter, I have walked, played with, and done multi-day overnights with all kinds of canines, from timid greyhounds to rambunctious collies. I lead an active lifestyle and take my shiba for at least three 2-mile walks each day, plus weekend hikes and trips to the dog park. I am a freelance writer, so I have a very flexible schedule. The highlight of my day is walking my dog and, ideally, meeting new dogs along the way. I feel like Rover is the perfect way to spend time with dogs and help their time-pressed owners. I will follow any and all instructions left by the owners. I always keep dogs leashed, prevent them from eating foreign objects, and otherwise prioritize their safety at all times.

“Attentive, kind, and so loving to my boys! Tessa was always on time and sent lots of pictures that showed how much fun they were having at her visits.

“Absolutely amazing. This was our first time having Jessica watch our two cats and she was beyond fabulous!: punctual, followed our feeding/playing/cleaning directions and she promptly contacted us with questions.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I’ve been watching them for the last 3+ years. I live very close to the airport, I have a fenced in yard and when I accept a booking it’s with the expectation that I’ll be home the entire time. I own one dog, Tobi, an 11-year-old lab mix. He’s as friendly as they come.Dogs are family and I will treat yours no differently than my own! 😊❤️ I’m always up very early to feed the dogs and our Tobi likes a morning walk, so that’s how we start the day. Throughout the day the dogs can go out in our backyard and hang out as much as they’d like, but they’re also welcome to hang inside on our couch or wherever else they’re comfortable. And they’re always welcome to nap in our bed ☺️ Safety is my number one priority. We have baby gates to separate if need be, and I take every possible precaution to keep an stress-free environment. I always require a meet and greet to make sure that the pup and the situation is a good fit ahead of time.

As I am not fully mobile at the moment, having someone to walk the pupper is essential and much appreciated!!”

About: My family and I have fostered dogs and cats, and litters of puppies and kittens since I was nine years old. Being homeschooled for a majority of my childhood, I was able to learn about taking care of these needy animals at such a young age. We have fostered dogs and cats of almost all ages, from newborns to adults. Even during the years, my family and I fostered these animals, I’ve had multiple neighbors at a time rely on me to visit and walk their dogs while they’re at work. That is how I got my first job at 11 years old. I’m out of school for the summer, so I am free practically whenever your pups need me! I can drop in/walk daily or weekly, whatever works for you! With my school and work schedule and the living situation I’m in, I don’t currently offer boarding services, but that may change in the future!

About: I am a current PhD student at Brown University with over a decade of experience caring for animals. I volunteered at my local humane society for a few years, working with both cats and dogs (including under-socialized animals). I have participated in numerous trainings and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. I currently have a cat of my own named Gouda (he’s a typical orange cat!) who is my world. I will treat your furbaby like my own - with love, respect, and care. I love all types of animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am a full-time student with tons of time over the summer when I work part-time. My schedule is very flexible (not a normal 9-5) so I can meet almost any scheduling ask. I would love to fill my free time with dogs and cats! I build trust with dogs and cats by moving slow, reading and respecting your pets body language, and staying calm to ensure that we are both safe.
About: I have over 12 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide feeding, walks, drop in visits, playtime, enrichment, and medication administration with patience and care. I grew up with two Dachshunds and two Border Collies, which gave me experience with both energetic working dogs and smaller companion breeds. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from pugs to Bernese Mountain Dogs, as well as young cats, senior cats, and foster cats preparing for their forever homes. What sets me apart is my calm, structured, and dependable approach. I understand how important routines are for pets and work hard to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also clean, tidy, respectful in clients’ homes, and committed to providing trustworthy care you can rely on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining consistent care schedules. I am a teacher with the summers off. I prioritize reliability, communication, and routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m flexible with walks, drop ins, and feeding schedules. I make sure each pet gets individual attention, exercise, affection, and care based on their specific needs and energy level. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any household rules to keep pets comfortable. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior so I can respond calmly and appropriately to their needs. I keep homes clean and tidy, ensure doors and gates are secure. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect.

I am a student at URI and have online class so I have plenty of time for walks! I have class every morning, but afternoons are open for me and can be flexible for some mornings. I go on daily walks and runs in my beautiful neighborhood and would love to bring some pups with me! Whether it’s my neighborhood or yours!
About: I have had dogs my entire life. They are my favorite thing in the whole world. I signed up for rover because it is a way to make money while spending time with your adorable doggies! I will walk, feed, and belly-rub any and all dogs that come my way. I am also open to any special accommodations one might need. Available most nights and weekends, and still some mornings/weekdays. I am open to any breeds, and just ask that you be honest with your dogs comfortably level with new people for all safety. I will provide the absolute best care possible for your loved ones, and they will make my day better too! :) I have two dogs and a cat (who very much believes is a dog), however I have just moved out of my family home 4 months ago, and miss having them around. I have had dogs my whole life and fell in love with cats the past 6 years since getting my Ringo. I fostered cats in college and am regularly around my dogs, my bfs, and friends. And always willing to give some good scratches when they are willing. I would love to host your pets and treat them as my own for whatever time being! I am always sure to be in eye sight of the pet to provide the highest safety for them possible, and disrupt any trouble that could become. I like to see dogs play and know they have my attention.

“Natalia was great about sending pictures and videos of my dog while I was away. It was our first time leaving her and she helped put my mind at ease, and it made my kids happy to know their dog was well taken care of!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“I'm fortunate to have found Celina when I needed a pet sitter for the weekend! It was a pleasure meeting them, as they were kind and understanding when I expressed my concerns about Otto and leaving him in a new environment. I liked that they spend the time to get to know me and my pup before committing. Smokey is also a great pup, he's so sweet and clever and it was great watching him adapt his play with Otto. It's also clear that Celina and Smokey have a great relationship and love each other a bunch. They do great with establishing boundaries and advocating for the pups when it's needed. Celina also sent me photos of Otto's stay, which were all adorable to see! Communication was easy and simple, which I'm very appreciative of. Overall, it was a great experience working with them and I will definitely book again :)”
“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!”
“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.”
“David is always patience with my reminders and questions. He puts me at ease with leaving my two punky poodles with him and they absolutely love him. So grateful we found a sitter who cares for furbabies like his own. Thank you and will be rebooking again for sure!”
“Anely was so great with Gracie. She sent frequent picture updates throughout her stay and every picture she looked so happy. Highly recommend Anely to anyone looking for a sitter who goes above and beyond!”
“Stephanie did a wonderful job with my two dogs while I was out of town for several nights. I got multiple pictures each day. They were in her care and they got plenty of exercise. She was very communicative regarding some trouble. One of my dogs got into at no fault of her own. It all worked out wonderfully because of her care and attention, and the dogs continued their boarding experience in style. I would definitely use Stephanie again next time I go out of town, as I highly recommend her.”
“Django had a great time staying with Ashley and her family, which included 2 new doggie friends! She was very responsive with any questions we had, and provided us with daily photos of his activities. We would definitely have Django stay there again, and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for care for their dog! Thank you, Ashley!”
“Paige is friendly, professional and her lovely home is set up perfectly for pet sitting. She sent me daily updates including pictures of her kids loving up my precious pup. And while he didn't leave the house for walks, she has an adequate fenced in yard and he was able to come in and out of the house freely. I felt completely at ease knowing that he was well taken care of since she has 4 children who were all respectful and great kids!”
“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!”
“Robert is the best! We have booked with him twice and plan to book again in the future. He provides lots of updates and photos and cares for our boy so well!”
“Danielle was fantastic! She suggested meeting up before our trip so that we could meet and Pretzel could get familiar with her house, which I really appreciated. She was super communicative while we were away and sent lots of photos and videos. Our dog was all smiles in every picture; I could tell they were having a blast together. 10/10 would recommend Danielle and I absolutely plan on contacting her again the next time we go away.”
“Giovanni was very professional and he has a very loving home. His own pets are well cared for. He even has a 19 year old poodle mix! It’s a real testament to the TLC in the house that can bring a dog into his 19th year of life. Giovanni and my dog were fast friends and I look forward to working with him again soon.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I’ve been watching them for the last 3+ years. I live very close to the airport, I have a fenced in yard and when I accept a booking it’s with the expectation that I’ll be home the entire time. I own one dog, Tobi, an 11-year-old lab mix. He’s as friendly as they come.Dogs are family and I will treat yours no differently than my own! 😊❤️ I’m always up very early to feed the dogs and our Tobi likes a morning walk, so that’s how we start the day. Throughout the day the dogs can go out in our backyard and hang out as much as they’d like, but they’re also welcome to hang inside on our couch or wherever else they’re comfortable. And they’re always welcome to nap in our bed ☺️ Safety is my number one priority. We have baby gates to separate if need be, and I take every possible precaution to keep an stress-free environment. I always require a meet and greet to make sure that the pup and the situation is a good fit ahead of time.

If they are allowed to do the same as Luca then we will happily all snuggle up ! Please bring a leash for your dog so we can take them for walks. Please tell us any specific instructions needed to care for your dog. Please provide us your veterinarian contact info incase of emergencies. Hannah works remote full time from home Monday -Friday !
