And of course I will treat your homes and pets with care.
“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”
“Lauren provided an amazing walk for our Great Pyr who can be somewhat of a challenge. She went above and beyond with her photos and summary message afterward! We will definitely be using Lauren again!!”
About: My family has owned many dogs of all sizes and ages. I love making sure every dog gets the attention it needs whether it is energetic walks or sniff breaks. I currently work part-time, but I am available mornings and evenings Monday through Friday. I have a fairly flexible schedule and can be more available depending on the day. I am very involved with taking care of my pets. I walk them everyday, bathe them, and play with them to get rid of energy.
“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.”
“Jamie is awesome! My pup is half Australian cattle dog, and he absolutely adores Jamie. She is skilled at handling him on a walk (he is very energetic!) and she has good judgment when it comes to dog parks and interacting with dogs in the neighborhood. I would trust her to watch my dog under any circumstances.”
“Emily has cared for Jack twice. She goes above and beyond, making sure he’s getting enough fresh air and exercise on extended walks and enough TLC while we’re away. Highly recommend.”
“Erica was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The day of service she was on time, and took great care of pup - he did not want her to leave after their walk! We would absolutely use Erica as a walker /sitter again.”
About: I live in SK with my husband, two human children and 9 yearold cat (who thinks hes a dog!) I am a deeply responsible and caring pet caregiver, I provide attentive, personalized care that ensures every animal feels safe, loved, and well looked after. From daily routines to emotional support, I treat every pet as family—always alert to their needs and dedicated to their well-being. I am excited to connect with you and your pet! I work from home 2-3 days per week and welcome a break while enjoying the outdoors and your pet! My schedule allows for flexible breaks, afternoon care, as well as last minute availability. I provide thoughtful, attentive care tailored to each animals unique personality. From brisk walks, to playing in the yard I will be attentive to whatever needs your animal has. I ensure every animal feels safe, cherished, and truly at home.
About: I got my first dog right out of college and have had 5 resident dogs since then. I have raised dogs from puppies and have cared for dogs through their senior years. I have been a foster for a local rescue for the past 2 years and also serve as an adoption screener working hard to find dogs a loving home. I have fostered puppies to adult dogs, and a variety of breeds and mixes. I feel honored to provide these dogs with a temporary loving and caring home. I am experienced at bathing dogs, trimming their nails, and giving them any oral medication required. I work full time but have a very flexible schedule. Some days I go to the office, some days I work from home. I can generally work my schedule around your needs. I don't have a fenced in yard but I live on 2 acres of land. I love taking dogs on long walks and live close to various trail walks and the bike path. If I need to leave the house, I will crate dogs if needed or not; it all depends on the care you have already established with your dog. I love having dogs sleep in bed with me and cuddle on the couch. I have twin 17 year old daughters who, when they are home, will happily give your dog attention and love. We recently adopted a dog after losing our German Shepherd over a year ago. Aria is a sweet 1 year old husky who was rescued from Providence, and after fostering her, we couldn't let her go. She gets along well with all dogs she has met.
“Tallyn helped me out with my dog Cooper when I unexpectedly had to work evenings with very short notice. It was too hot to walk that week so she spent time with Cooper in my backyard giving him some nice shaded exercise. Excellent communication and great pictures of my dog during her visits. I would be very happy to use her again.”
About: Whether your dog is ready to jog, walk, or sunbathe I will love and care for them the whole time. I will also brush them and I always check for ticks. I have two boys ages 20 and 13. I am available most days and my schedule is pretty flexible. I can come over anytime between 6am and 7pm on most days. I can care for your pet in your home or I can take them for a ride or a walk. I will always brush your dog’s fur and teeth - if they are into that! They will come home happy and tired.
“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!”
About: I got my first puppy when I was 8 years old, and ever since then I have always had an animal by my side. From cats to dogs to even ducks and chickens! I love them all! I have done my best to master the art of giving cats medication( which is no easy task) and have become and expert in hiding pills in cheese for our dogs! I would love to help take care of your fur babies! I’m currently a stay at home mom for my two little girls so my schedule is generally wide open besides the frequent trips to the playground! I have two dogs myself, and we can take long walks on the near by trail or around the neighborhood! Also have an extra crate if need be
About: Lifelong Animal Lover | 13+ Years Experience | Trusted, Loving, Down-to-Earth Care Hi! I’m Victoria — a lifelong animal lover with over 13 years 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 hear from me is my “big girl voice” (loving, but clear). 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! I currently work from home 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! Your pets safety is top priority for me. I care deeply for all animals and find that love, patience and understanding is the best approach with all pets.
About: Please note: our beloved golden retriever, Charlie, has been diagnosed with a heart tumor and pulmonary hypertension. We are on a hiatus from dog sitting for this period of time while we care for him and give him all the love we can for the time we have left with him. We will update our calendar as we’re able, and look forward to a return to sitting when it is appropriate. Thank you for understanding. We are a dog loving family with experience from puppyhood to senior care. We’ve raised dogs from breeders and we’ve fostered/rescued. One of our beloved pups had a severe genetic heart disease, so we’ve dealt with medical conditions and the accompanying drugs and modified care they require. Through all of our canine experiences, we’ve learned that dogs thrive with consistency, positive reinforcement, and lots of love and affection. Our two retrievers are a huge part of our family, and we look forward to your pup falling in with our routines like he/she is one of our own. I work from home Monday-Friday. Your dog(s) would spend their weekdays joining our two dogs either curled up at my feet or playing in our fenced-in backyard. On weekends and evenings they’ll enjoy the extra company of our dog-loving teenagers, who will spoil them rotten with walks, playtime, and lots of attention! We have a big, fenced in yard so the dogs will get plenty of outdoor time. For the most part, your dog(s) will have free rein to be with our family and our dogs doing whatever we’re doing — but we do have several crates and portable fences that we can use as needed to provide separation and quiet time. We want your dog to be comfortable and happy in our home, so we’ll work closely with you before your visit to make sure we understand his/her habits and routines!
About: Hey, I’m Lucas! I’m from South Kingstown, RI, and I’ve been around animals my whole life. Right now, I live with two dogs, two cats, guinea pigs, and even some reptiles, so I’m pretty used to taking care of a variety of pets. Currently, I’m a full-time security guard supervisor and a full-time student at URI. While my schedule is busy, Rover allows me to combine my love for animals with the flexibility I need to support myself through college. I’m here to do what I love: care for pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walking dogs, playing with cats, or just making sure your pet is comfortable while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’ve had pets all my life, so I understand how important it is for them to get attention and care. I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly) friends and make sure they’re happy while you’re out! I am a full time security guard and student at URI but I can house/pet sit any night from 8pm-8am. I am also happy to do stop ins, and walks in the mornings. I am very experienced with a lot of animals, and all at once. If you need someone who genuinely cares about your babies I’m your guy!!
