She left our home just as we had and she had excellent communication throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate at all to have her as our cat sitter again if we get the opportunity. I fully recommend Mackenzie if you are looking for someone to take care of your furry friend.”


About: There’s nothing more rewarding than earning a cats trust. From high energy kittens to senior care, I’m excited to build a trusting bond with any kitty I meet! My visits will include plenty of love, fresh food and water, some treats if granted permission, meticulous litter scooping, and whatever type of play time or cuddles they prefer (including just being fed and left alone!) I understand that cats aren't just small dogs, they have unique personalities, boundaries, and comfort zones. Whether your cat is a social butterfly who craves interactive playtime, an energetic kitten, or a shy senior who just needs a quiet, comforting presence, I tailor my visits to their specific pace. I am highly reliable with strict feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, and administering medications if needed, including shots, oral pills and oral liquids. My top priority is keeping your cat safe, happy, and stress free in their own environment while giving you total peace of mind with regular photo and text updates!

About: Ever since I was 5 and gifted the love of my life (my cat Milo), I have fostered a deep relationship with taking care of cats. They need clean filtered water, cuddles, and most importantly respect and cleanliness for their space.

“We loved having Carse take care of our two cats! She was extremely attentive and gave lots of updates on how they were doing. Would highly recommend her to others :)”

“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”
“Super reliable and very easy to work with. Very responsive with communication. My cats looked very happy in photos and when I came back home. Kaitlin did a great job taking care of my kitties!”


“Kaitlyn was wonderful with my shy, retiring cat. She knows how kitties work and was able to entice her out. She was easy to connect with and gave great updates to make the fur Mom happy. I will be booking her again.”


About: I’m a huge cat lover and have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is for cats to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also have hands on experience through a feline animal hospital and rescue work, including feeding, medication support, low stress handling, enrichment, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I’m patient, gentle, and will treat your cat like one of my own while you’re away.

“Meira was wonderful with Deedles! Deedles doesn’t warm up to people very quickly, but within days she was flopping for scritches. Meira was great with sending detailed updates and pictures every visit. She was very responsive and left my place nice and clean. Thanks, Meira!”

“Natasha is great! She fed my pup who has several medications with his dinner and walked him after for a drop in visit. She even kindly washed his dish. Sounds like he gets excited to see her and I trust she will always come on time and take good care for my boy.”

I’m also excited about ensuring that you feel connected to your pet while you’re away. I have been known to take super cute pictures of pets for text threads. Let’s work together!

“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.”


“Briana was awesome! She was super accommodating for my last minute request and was so easy and sweet to work with. My dog came back to us with a big smile and took a nice long nap, and Briana shared several great photos documenting his stay. We’ll definitely work with Briana again if/when we return to the area!”


“Debby was AWESOME! My puppy was in such good hands. She’s very loving, attentive, responsive, friendly, had a lot of experience with dogs, keeps you updated with pictures, and overall genuine. My puppy had such a fun time at her place! Will definitely be booking again :)”


About: Hi! We are a sister team with over a decade of experience in dog rescue and animal care! We have veterinary experience and can provide basic medical care such as injections or administration of medications. We love animals and are patient and understanding. We can’t wait to meet you & your pet! Every pet is different and has different needs. We like to learn about those in advance and proceed on a per pet basis. Some dogs need more patience and structure for instance, or benefit from mental stimulation as much as physical. We can adjust our care style to the specific needs of the client. The pets safety and comfort is of top priority. We have availability throughout the week and can often accommodate weekend requests as well. Please note bookings m-f between 11am-2pm are the most popular time slots and often secured in advance by weekly reoccurring. We can offer drop ins, cuddle sessions, structured walks, play time/toys, work on basic training, exercise sessions and more! Pets under our care are our top priority and will be treated like family.
“Words can’t explain how much I appreciate Emma for today. She came in clutch! And really helped at the last minute and spent the entire day with my boy. Was professional. From the start, highly skilled in communication & overall just couldn’t have been a better choice. My boy has pretty bad anxiety and seemed to have warmed up to her and speaks volumes for me . Overall great ringer,”

“Elba is a great dog sitter. I came to Rhode Island for the weekend and contacted Elba same day and she responded very fast. She took great care of my puppy. Elba went beyond her duty and send me pictures and kept me posted. Highly recommended. Thank you!!!”


“Rich was super flexible about our drop off and pick up times, my husband works unpredictable hours so this was a HUGE relief! We got plenty of pictures and communication on how our little guy was doing throughout the day. It was great knowing he was in good hands and with other dog friends!”

“I’m very grateful to Hanna & Roy.✨ Besides being such lovely people, I truly appreciate them for taking care of my puppy🐶 From the very first moment, they showed so much love and dedication. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Haru’s well-being: they gave him affection, were attentive to him at all times, and played with him a lot. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident in creating a calm, loving environment that fits their needs. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have plenty of attention throughout the day—and with a beautiful park right next door, daily walks and outdoor time are part of our regular routine. I genuinely treat every pet like my own, giving them the care, affection, and respect they deserve. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I start the day with morning walks (the park next door is perfect for that), and I build in time for play, feeding, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Evenings usually include a final walk and some wind-down time. Whether it’s a short visit or overnight care, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care woven into my day like they’re part of the family. In my home, I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly space where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible—walks, feeding times, play, and rest—to help them settle in easily. I live next to a park, so daily walks and outdoor time are a big part of our day. Pets have full access to cozy spaces, and I’m always nearby since I work from home.
About: Please be advised I am no longer accepting Pet Drop In or Walking visits M-F. But please message me anyway. About me: I no longer have pets of my own. My children are grown ups and out of the house on their own. My home is empty with just me and my elderly mother. I still love to have my freedom but would love to take on sitting your pet in my home or your home. I also work from home M-F, so your pet will have me with them for a majority of the time I’m caring for them. I work from home Monday-Fri and have lots of free time to take care of your pet in my home or in your home. Give me a shot please! My yard is not fenced in, however I am fully able to take your pet outside on a leash and for a walk to potty.
“Baron had a great day with Isabel and her fiancée! Despite him being a slightly anxious pup at times, he seemed to be at ease, relaxed, and enjoying his time. Isabel was very responsive and took very good care of Baron. I will definitely be booking with Isabel again!”

About: I grew up with black lab mixes, having at least one dog in the house all the time. I helped to raise two of the family black lab puppies through 15 years and care for the next generation, a 2 year old black lab/border collie rescue pup, teaching her to sit and lay down. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs over the past few years, learning patience from puppies, strength from sweet old ladies, and the careful nuance that comes with leash aggressive rescues. I now have an adopted a rescue greyhound in the family. She loves new friends but is also perfectly happy cat napping wherever her bed lands. Happy to host or walk, with or without her company. I’m full time at home and so I am free to do breaks and provide limited entertainment between meetings, which are never more than 1.5h. This is the schedule I provide my own pup and would extend to others. I treat them as my own. I prefer to be over communicative with owners if any potential issues arise as well. Greyhounds react particularly poorly to negative feedback and punishment, so patience and focus on pawsitivity (particularly treats) is a standard with me.

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.
“eliza is the best! She is so attentive, caring and professional. She also sent back photos and I can tell my dog enjoyed every second with her! I had a last minute book for puppy day care and she replied very quickly. I would not hesitate to book her again!”

About: Hello, I’m a Brown University graduate who gave up on the corporate life to live off my art and my passion for animals. I’ve always had pets in my life, especially cats, and I’ve been caring for them since I was a kid. Growing up, I also helped watch my neighbors’ pets whenever they needed an extra hand. Now, I’m a proud dog mom to Bonnie, a sweet Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix I share with my partner. Because she’s our first dog, we dove deep into research—while at Brown, we studied canine behavior and body language to better understand how dogs communicate and what they need to feel safe and happy. That knowledge has been invaluable in helping us welcome pet guests into our home. When your pets stay with us, they’ll be treated just like Bonnie—with cuddles, love, fun walks, playtime, and plenty of care. My goal is always to make them feel at home, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is very flexible, so I have plenty of time to walk, feed, play with, and cuddle your pets throughout the day. Whether they need extra attention, long walks, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure they always feel cared for. The first priority for me when caring for animals is safety. I pay close attention to the environment and make sure pets are always comfortable and secure. For dogs, I have a safe yard where they can play, take potty breaks, or just relax outside. I also live in a very pet-friendly neighborhood, perfect for safe walks and trips to the park. For cats, my home is equipped with window protection so they can’t slip outside (unless they are leash-trained or outdoor cats whose owners prefer outside time). I always respect each owner’s preferences—whether that means leash walks, indoor-only care, or a specific routine. If not in my own house, it's my pleasure to go to the owners house to take care of the cats! I will check the whole house to make sure everything is in order, clean everything, feed, hang out and play with the little ones! I pay attention to each animal’s unique needs. I believe communication is key, so I’ll always ask questions and keep in touch to make sure we’re on the same page.
“Raquel is one of the best dog sitters I have ever used on this app! She was very accommodating when it came to my dog. She even gave me updates throughout the day so I could see how my dog was doing.”


“Qualynda was amazing with our puppy. She watched her for us on very short notice and went above and beyond to care for her and keep us informed. Our girl is pretty timid and was scared at first but warmed up quickly and had a great time. She especially loved running around the big backyard! We will definitely use Qualynda again!”

About: I LOVE animals! I recently lost my 13 year old soul dog who I’ve had since she was 8 weeks old. I have experience with senior and hospice dogs. I know how hard it is to leave your “kids” with someone new, but I promise to keep them safe, happy and loved. I currently do work but have flexible hours and am able to work from home if needed. I am available weekdays/nights and weekends to watch your “kids” I have a single family home where dogs are allowed on the furniture. I also have a fully fenced in back yard for your pups to play in.
About: I've been around animals my whole life, so taking care of your pets feels pretty natural to me. Whether it's walks with dogs or playtime with cats, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them — and I'll make sure to follow whatever routines and instructions you've set up. I work remotely, so I'm home most of the day and can give your pets plenty of attention without it feeling like a juggling act. Expect regular photo updates, because I know how much it helps to see your furry friend doing well while you're away. Basically — your pet will be in good hands, and you can actually relax knowing that. Working from home and setting my own schedule means your pet isn't an afterthought squeezed between meetings — they're just part of the day, naturally. I love active, social dogs who are up for a good walk or some backyard play — that's my sweet spot. Cats are a different kind of company, and honestly I'm here for it, especially the playful ones who actually want to interact but also those that play hard to get too.

“Jessica is a GEM!!!! I was nervous about finding someone to take care of my pup who can be nervous in new situations/people and had some health stuff going on, but Jessica did everything to make her feel comfortable and cared for, and now my girl LOVES hanging out with Jessica and Abu!! Jessica also did everything to make ME, nervous dog mom, comfortable by sending lots of sweet videos and pictures of my pup having a grand ol' time. Jessica is the best!”

“Xinwei was fantastic with Cody while I was out of the country. He was always punctual, reliable, and very communicative, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and knowing Cody was in good hands. I’d absolutely book with Xinwei again and highly recommend him!”


“Rich is incredible super helpful whenever we go away and also helps me out in a pinch from time to time which has been awesome. His wide array of knowledge with different dogs is super helpful especially with our huge baby Goomba. 70 pounds of pitbull.”

“Heath was great with Jasper! Jasper warmed up very quickly and clearly enjoyed his walk. I received lots of pictures and a detailed description of the walk. We will definitely use Heath in the future!”
“Having Rania be apart of our dog care team has been amazing! We hired Rania after I suffered a serious injury that required surgery and months of recovery. I was hesitant at first to hire someone to walk our boy as he can be difficult and picky, but my Riley took a liking to Rania right away and she has been key every since. She is super responsible and always communicates in a timely fashion if she is running late. I highly recommend Rania if you are in need for a caring, responsible walker.”

I also love being outdoors and set aside time to go for walks 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 even fostered dogs’ Have something specific your pet wants? I’m all ears! There’s nothing to big, small, or “weird” for me.

About: I’m an Animal Science (Pre-Vet) student with hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, horses, and other animals through veterinary, grooming, farm, and shelter work. I’ve worked in a feline animal hospital and have experience with low stress handling, feeding routines, medication support, bathing, enrichment, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort in animals. What sets me apart is that I combine real animal care experience with a fun, patient, and reliable personality. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. As a college student studying Animal Science (Pre-Vet), I love spending my free time around animals and can dedicate plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care to pets throughout the day.

In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and clean living areas. In my home, while I don’t have a backyard, I live in a safe neighborhood and make up for it with long walks, exercise, and lots of attention and enrichment. I pay close attention to animal behavior and body language so I can recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and help pets feel relaxed and loved!

You do not force it on them.

About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my house, Growing up with large dogs; I'm comfortable with them and capable of handling them, though I love the little guys too! As your dog's caretaker, I'll be sure to get your best friend the exercise and care that they need and deserve, and am excited and willing to go the extra mile if it means I get to spend a little extra time with them. I offer low rates, but that doesn't mean that, I look forward to meeting, playing with, walking, and otherwise looking after your four-legged friend soon, and I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have. I am a stay at home dad with my 5 children, whom also love dogs. They as well have been blessed to be raised with big and small dogs. I offer all type of services, overnight, walks, check-ins. I am available all day. I have a large fenced in yard where they can run, play and burn out energy. I have a open availability and home with my pups at all time. I do not like to cage my pup so they mainly free roam the home and I set them up a place to sleep. I follow all instructions left for me if care is to be done in my pups home. When pups are in my home for the most part they free roam my home and I like to take them out for walks and runs.
About: I've owned cats and dogs my whole life. I love all kinds of animals big and small. I have a cat of my own, Rosé. I also have plenty of experience pet/house sitting and friends and neighbors. I work from home Monday - Friday so I can be available on short notice. I have plenty of time in the evenings after 5 pm also and can be flexible to fit your schedule. If your dog has any special needs, specific medications or allergies those are major things to know ahead of time. If your dog does not get along with other dogs that is also important so I know not to take them to parks.

“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 :)”

“Jessica was the best!! Spencer absolutely loved his sleepover party with his new pals. Jessica made sure to keep me updated with pictures and videos of Spencer. She made me feel comfortable with Spencer being at a new home for the first time. She made sure he got his night time meds, and extra snacks! Overall Jessica was one of the best rovers I had. Super attentive and caring. Spencer can’t wait to go back and see his girl friends!💕💕”
