“Paloma was available on short notice for an evening drop-in visit and even called ahead to ensure proper care instructions were followed. She was punctual and responsive while taking care of our senior dog and young puppy, even checking on our cats as well. She left the house in order and the pets happy. We will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve pet sit many of times and always give the dogs everything and anything they need as well as bringing them someone to play with. I am a student at URI completing my last year of chemical engineering and I am able to help Monday, Wednesday, and Friday in the morning before noon and late afternoon after 4:30. I can come walk the dog as well as giving them to play in the yard. I can also feed, refill water bowl, and give them a treat with your approval.
“Hannah helped us out agreeing to a drop-in visit on short notice. She did a great job tending to our 10 ½ yr. old chocolate lab, fed him, gave him his medications, walked and played with him and sent photos during her visit. We were pleased and appreciative of her help and would definitely recommend her services.”
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. I’m available for weekday and weekend care and can adjust to different pets’ routines and needs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. 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!
“I am so happy I found Emily! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a bit nervous leaving my dog and cat in the care of a new person. Emily was so kind, thoughtful, and caring from our first interaction over the phone, to our meet and greet, and throughout her visits with my pets! She was attentive to details and thorough in her visit notes and photos, which made me feel so at ease. We will definitely be booking Emily again!”
“Amethyst was so attentive to my needs and concerns while I was out of town. Like any cat mom I get nervous to leave my fur baby alone with just anyone but my little guy was in good hands!”
About: Hi there! I’ve had both dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals is truly something I love.

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life, and was often asked by neighbors and friends to watch their pets on vacation. Along with my own experiences owning several varieties of pets including cats, fish, and geckos, I also have professional experience from years working at different pet stores, which broadened my knowledge to dogs, birds, guinea pigs, and other small and exotic animals. Simply put, your pets are mine for the time they are in my care, and I will treat them with the same love and attention that I give my own because I know how much pets enrich our lives. I'm currently self-employed, so I have a flexible schedule to play and care for your pets. I am also available for overnight stays and can do general house care as well such as light cleaning and watering plants. I do not board, but I tailor my care based off of the care you are already providing for your pet, so there is as little change to their normal routine as possible.

Trusting Jewel with our animals and our home was easy from the very beginning. She was so kind, dependable, and easy to work with. She was incredibly compassionate and patient with our aging dog, which meant so much to us. Jewel also went above and beyond in caring for our home. She even vacuumed, which was such a thoughtful extra and truly appreciated. Knowing she cared for our animals and our home as if they were her own gave us such peace of mind. I would highly recommend Jewel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable person to help with their animals and home. We are so thankful we found her!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Kingston is $23 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,933 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Kingston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Kingston. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
