“Sophia was wonderful, she took such special care of our Border Collie Goose! He has terrible separation anxiety and Sophia barely left his side for straight week. I came home to happy dog and a very clean house. We will absolutely have her again and would highly recommend her.”
“Kaitlynn was exceptional! She delivered on the elements we would hope for when caring for our dog. She communicated clearly and timely with relevant updates that gave us piece of mind. She took the time to listen and get to know and understand our anxious and sometimes reactive cattle dog, giving him the physical exercise he needed along with the mental stimulation. She went above and beyond and we would highly recommend Kaitlynn.”
“Rayna was an outstanding house sitter, and I recommend her without hesitation. She took wonderful care of our dog and cats, and it was clear they were happy and well looked after while we were away. She kept the house spotless, was incredibly responsive throughout our trip, and sent frequent updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. Rayna was also friendly, professional, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. We came home to happy pets and a perfectly maintained house. We would absolutely book Rayna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy house sitter.”
About: I have taken care of a wide range of animals my whole life. I was raised by two loving parents who work for the department of environment. I have always been more close with animals and have always done my absolute most to make sure they are taken care of. I have three dogs of my own two large ones and one small one. We also have two cats and some other animals. I cannot wait to meet yours. I’m currently a full time student and part time worker at the mall. I currently tend to two of my animals and have found the time to fit yours in as well. I can be available early in the morning to late at night. I make sure all my animals are in very safe hands and make sure they stay preoccupied. I always make sure to have as much patience as needed and stick to your schedule.
“Victoria did an excellent job with communication and picture updates. We returned to a well kept member of the family and a house in the same condition as left. We would not hesitate to have Victoria look after Rudder and our home again.”
About: I’ve had many dogs all different kind of breeds. Very good at training and giving them attention. Takes them for walks 1 to 3 times a day I’m free Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Some weekends if 2 week notice. Mornings afternoons and evenings work durning the week. Weekends when I’m available mainly evenings and nights I don’t have a fenced yard but I will keep them on leash at all times and be very close so they don’t take off
“Brynn was absolutely fantastic and very communicative. She gave us the best updates while we were away. She did the best job making sure Cosmo had all his needs taken care of and he really seemed to have bonded with her. I cant say anything but amazing things about her and we will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
About: I have worked as a Kennel Attendant taking care of multiple dogs at a time while also caring for my own dogs and taking care of family pets and or friends pets. Whether it be feelings, taking on walks, talking outside for the bathroom, bathing and spending time with our furry friends. I have always had a strong love for dogs of all sizes and would love to meet your furry friends! I am a little new to this app to bear with me and I appreciate all your requests!! I am currently finishing my senior year of school online and am currently working part time. I have some days and times available to hangout and come see your furry friends! I would love to hear from everyone about times and days and we can chat about what works for the both of us! I am very flexible while also being very flexible about pet care times! Thank you so much for your time and consideration! I have a fenced in backyard and two very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! I can crate your dog if needed but would always love to have them out and about.
“This was our first time using Rover and Isabel was amazing. She provided updates and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She was very professional and asked lots of our questions during our virtual meet and greet and took the time to learn the dogs’ routines. We can’t wait to use her again!”
“Emily was great to work with and made our traveling easy, not having to worry about our two dogs. We loved getting pictures of the dogs throughout her stay. Also, her having experience with Australian shepherds was a huge plus because she understood our dogs quirks. She even went above and beyond by coming a couple times ahead of her stay to get to know the dogs, and while we were gone watering our plants, taking in mail, and cleaning before she left. Would 100% book her to watch my dogs again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Family and neighbors would always rely on me to watch their pets when they went out of town. I work full-time. So when I’m watching your pet, I will be gone from 9 to 4 and Gus will be with me at all times. If I need to come back midday to let the pup out that can be arranged. Just let me know! Gus is my pal. He’s my right hand. He will be with me when we take care of care of your pet! He’s a 1y/o beagle mix. Loves to play and gets along with everyone very relaxed and chill. Gus and I will stay at your home. Walks in the morning and evening. Photos and communication as much as you prefer.
About: I’ve taken care of large and small dogs for the past couple of years. I started with family and friends animals and have recently started watching other peoples animals and I really enjoy it. I’ve walked, bathed, feed and swam with pets. I work part time at a movie theater and have a flexible schedule and can request days off if need be or work in the morning rather than night and vise versa if you need morning care. I Can crate dogs if needed, I won’t feed your pet anything unless okayed by owner first. I live to take pictures of animals so I can provide updates if needed. I enjoy walking and running with animals so if they need a walk outside or a ball thrown around a fenced yard I would be happy to do so.
“First time using a sitting app service. Emma was absolutely fantastic. She went above & beyond to make our Cooper feel comfortable. Very communicative. Lots of pics & videos to keep us in touch.”
About: I've had dogs in my life, from diapers through college, and miss living a home with one - walks, couch snuggles, all of it. I've cared for family dogs for years, very familiar with strict feeding schedules, medication routines, and keeping dogs secure and happy while their owners are away. I treat every dog like my own, bringing lifelong animal experience and total reliability to the table. Whether your pup needs a calm buddy at home or a companion for nature trails and beach walks, I'm here to give them my full attention! I work a flexible schedule with regular work from home days, meaning your dog gets full daytime company instead of hanging out alone. I can wrap up a bit early around 2 or 3 PM for solid afternoon walks and undivided attention if needed, and my evenings are wide open. Weekends are flexible, with a sweet spot for early morning to late afternoon adventures! I care for dogs right in their own space, keeping their routine, food, and comfort uninterrupted. I follow feeding and medication instructions to the letter, stick strictly to your house rules, and make sure potty breaks happen every two to four hours, unless otherwise specified. Since my home isn't set up for four-legged guests, I focus entirely on house sitting and walks so your dog stays cozy at home with constant, 1-1 attention the whole time.

FAQs for House Sitting - West Greenwich
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in West Greenwich on Rover is $75 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,376 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Greenwich. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred West Greenwich walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in West Greenwich maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Greenwich choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 sitter 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.

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.
