“Sophia was truly amazing. She communicated every step of the way and always reached out with any questions. I appreciated how consistently she kept me informed with updates and photos, and how she let me know when she arrived and left each day. She also gave me helpful summaries of their daily activities so I always knew how Kharma was doing. I came home to a neat and tidy house, the trash taken out, and a very happy dog. It was clear Kharma was well cared for. I’d absolutely trust her again.”
“Rosie offers thoughtful, customized care for her furry clients & is a great communicator while pet sitting. We highly recommend booking her for your next Rover. Thank you, Rosie!!!”
“Meaghan did an amazing job taking care of my two cattle dogs at my home for a week. Both are rescues and one is a flight risk and very leery of new people. Meaghan was amazing with them and kept everyone safe and happy!”
“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.”
“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”
“Kaitlynn stayed with my anxious dog Cora for over a week and I was able to enjoy my vacation and trust that she was in great hands! Kaitlynn provided consistent updates on Cora including many photos which my family & I loved to receive multiple times throughout the day. She followed Cora’s feeding & medication routine perfectly & overall my anxious 65 lb potties mix was so happy & content for the whole stay. I highly recommend Kaitlynn she was wonderful!”
“Sarah was exceptional! She took such good care of our cat Keagan and communicated with us daily, sending pictures of them interacting. She was very responsible and left our home as clean as we left it. She paid attention to details and went above and beyond. We highly recommend Sarah and would hire her again without question.”
“Georgia was kind enough to do a meet and greet whuch really put us at ease. Georgia was responsive, wonderfully attentive with the girls, brought a package in that arrived while we were gone, extremely neat, and she sent us daily photos and little check-in/updates. We will definitely book Georgia again for our future trips for house sitting and taking care of our girls June Bug and Frisbee (cats)!”
“Emma was amazing. Finn was very happy when we came home. She sent us many pictures and videos of Finn during the week she was here. We are very pleased and will definitely use her again.”
“Samantha is a great pet and house sitter. She took care of my dog and cats with great care and attention. Everyone was healthy and fine when we came home. The house was well taken care of as well, clean and neat. The communication was also very good, pictures sent and response time was also prompt. I defiinitely recommend her and would hire her again.”
“From the moment Julia came for the meet-and-greet with Pickles, our one year old rescue who has some anxiety issues with strangers, she gave us a complete sense confidence. She even had a form to get all the information that she would need to know how best to take care of P. When we were away for five days, Julia obviously created a great, easy relationship with our dog and kept her on a routine that we had established (as she has been with us for fewer than three months). Julia sent regular photos and videos of her and updates on how she was doing. I cannot recommend her enough. When we arrived home, Julia had done the bedding(laundry) and she was packed up. The house was immaculate. Thank. You for her loving care. We will be repeats.”
“Shannon was excellent with our two dogs. They have very different needs and she was intuitive and attentive with both of them. They got A LOT of attention and exercise. I felt confident that our pups were loved and cared for. Grateful!”
“Kayla did a great job watching our dog Blue for an overnight stay! She sent frequent updates and spoiled him with attention and cuddles. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Emily is a fantastic pet sitter! She shows a genuine love for animals with her gentle spirit. Emily communicated with me throughout my trip so I knew the pets were doing well and we dealt with minor issues that came up. I was very concerned to use a pet sitter, but had no choice for this trip and Emily put me at ease. She really loved and cared for my pets. I highly recommend Emily!”
“Anya was wonderful and our dogs loved her. She did a great job ensuring they were well taken care of and loved. She helped take care of things around the house and sent pictures and updates while we were away. Would 100% recommend her.”
“Heath is so great with my dog Scott. He sends updates and check ups to let you know how things are going. It makes traveling so much less stressful knowing that my dog is being taken care of.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many different shapes and sizes since I was 9. I grew up with a white Maltese named Jolina whom I absolutely adored. My friends and family have always felt comfortable leaving me to care for their pets while away on trips. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them all the attention they need! I will follow all instructions and make use of all toys or treats given to ensure your pup has the best time while you’re away.
“Outstanding! Daily pictures and updates. Spent hours actively engaged with Athena (the 80# gsd) each day. She was healthy and happy on our return. We (the people) were able to relax and enjoy our trip with any worry. Xinwei is and kind, gentle person, and Athena loved him from the very first meeting. We returned to find the house cleaner than when we left it! Additionally, he is a fantastic communicator and I recommend him without any concerns at all!”
About: From childhood, my life has been a menagerie of animals big and small—dogs, cats, rodents, fish, —you name it! This lifelong immersion has made me a true animal lover with a knack for understanding their unique needs. I pride myself on following directions carefully, ensuring your pet's routine and specific care instructions are always top priority. Whether it's a tiny hamster or a large dog, I'm passionate about providing attentive and loving care to animals of all sizes. My experience includes working with different dog breeds, pet-sitting for dogs, and fostering cats, giving me a solid foundation in responsible pet care. You can trust that your furry, scaly, or feathered friends will be in capable and caring hands. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs. I just got back from school, so I’m figuring out my summer plans and work situation. I should have plenty of time to give your pups top-notch care and lots of playtime! I have three dogs and two cats, and they're all super friendly. But I totally get that not all dogs want attention from other animals. If your pet prefers their personal space, that's no problem at all—I can definitely provide that. My house has a big backyard with a portion that is fully fenced. I live in a safe neighborhood for walks, with trails right behind my house and lots of public trails nearby for hikes. For cats, I'd give them their own space away from my cats, since they can be territorial and need slow introductions. If you have any other kind of pet, I have a finished pet room with its own heating system and no other pets! My care is specialized to your pet and their needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Warwick
Two years ago we had the great luck of coming across Dina here on the Rover app. I’ve lost track as to how many times we have worked with her at this point but she has been absolutely amazing! We have a large breed dog with a high separation anxiety that has gotten better with extensive training but due to these issues, we could not utilize a kennel and are oddly glad at this point that we don’t! Our dog hates crates, is very strong willed, and we quickly learned that crates could not adequately contain him. We realized that a sitter was the best and only remaining option with him so here we are. Our dog is friendly but can be a bit stand-offish to people. This has not been the case with Dina and the warm caring relationship she immediately established with him! The pictures of him snuggling and resting peacefully while we are away are amazing! Dina is prompt in her service. She communicates clearly and takes care of our lug as if he was her own. Thank you for being a true professional, Dina! The peace of mind you provide is far better than we’d hoped for! You are the BEST!! 10/10!!!
Haylie was hands down the best sitter we have every worked with! She was extremely thorough, professional, and so loving to our beagle, border collie, and three parrots. She followed every instruction to a T and even went above and beyond to take the trash out / clean up the place before we came back from our vacation. We were so worried after moving away from Providence that it would be harder to find good sitters, but Haylie is a god-send! She sent us many updates about each of the pets daily and we had no worries in the slightest while on our vacation! Will definitely book with her again.
Donna was perfect.She came for a meet and greet with the dogs the week before.They loved her right away.Dogs have a sense about who they can relax with even though my dogs gets anxious when we leave them.They were spoiled and happy when we came home.Donna is a very nice and genuinely honest person.We would be very lucky if she is available to care for our dogs another time.We highly recommend her,so do Cameron and Cerise!
Elinor did a great job taking care of our cats! She really saved us when our previous sitter ghosted us 2 days before a big trip. Elinor was available last minute thankfully. She had great communication and sent lots of photos of our kitties! Would absolutely book with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in West Warwick is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $6 and $133 per night. 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.

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 Warwick 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 Warwick 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 Warwick 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 , 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 .
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 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.
