“Sarah and Mason were very reliable and communicative. Felt comfortable leaving our 3 dogs in their care for an extended amount of time. Would definitely use their services again in the future.”
About: Though I dont have any professional pet care experience yet, I have owned and cared for 3 dogs throughout my life! I'd love to get to know your pets and give them everything they need to be happy and healthy! I feed the cats whenever their owner is unable to do so! As well as cleaning out their litter box when needed! I enjoy playing with them and hanging out with them! When I was caring for my dog, I would walk him at least 2-4 times a day, feed him twice a day, and make sure he got plenty of playtime! He also got a bath weekly! Nobody knows your pet better than you! While of course feeding and walking and play are important, each pet has their own special personality! I want to know the things your pet loves the most so I can honor those things while youre away and ensure that they are as happy as can be while they're under my care!
“Sophia had great communication with me before, during and after her stay. My pup was THRILLED with her and I'm sure that's because she was given love and attention. My instructions for the home were followed perfectly and it was left in pristine condition. I would definitely book with Sophia again!”
“Tori was amazing! We hired her to stay with our sweet Australian Labradoodle, Birdie, while we were away for five days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, our home was spotless, and Birdie was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter, and we'll absolutely be using her again!”
“Rayna did an incredible job with my dog, Lucy!! She asked how many updates I wanted on Lucy while I was away and I told her there was no limit, and she delivered the most fun photos and updates! Lucy clearly felt so comfortable with Rayna! I will absolutely be booking again.”
“Alicia did an awesome job pet sitting Drax while we were on a trip. She was communicative, sent lots of pictures, took could care of Drax and they had a great time together. Drax looked like he got good exercise and had fun.”
“Lou arrived early and stayed late. She was prepared and cheerful. I felt immediately at ease leaving my dog, Happy, with her. My instincts proved correct. I arrived home to a very content and relaxed dog. Happy is blind and Lou was handled her disability adeptly. I would 100% recommend her as a pet sitter.”
About: I have had animals of all kinds my whole life and have helped take care of multiple family pets since elementary school. I am experienced with reptiles/amphibians, small animals, as well as cats and dogs. I am very passionate about animal care and currently have a dog, a cat, and several different reptiles. I just graduated and don’t know what I’m going to do yet, so I have a lot of free time to play and hang out with your pets! I can care for your pets however you want me to. I'd like to provide the same level of care that you do and treat your pet like I would my own.
About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was little. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and been a proud dog momma and would love to care for your your fur baby. I even have experience caring for special needs animals. I currently own my own business so, my schedule is super flexible and I am able to accommodate last minute requests to take care of what ever your fur baby needs. I treat every animal with the love and compassion that they need and deserve! I have experience with special needs animals including those with long term health conditions and immobility.
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.
“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.”
About: I’ve grown up with many dogs and watched dogs all my life. My mom was a dog groomer and owned a dog day care. I’m currently working part time and will be starting college in the fall but I can always make time to walk your pup or help with your cat! I can watch them overnight, watch them for the day, or take them out for a walks. I can definitely take your pup for a walk multiple times a day and however you train them in your home I will do the same.
“Jonathan took fantastic care of both our dog, Winston, and our house! I would highly recommend him as a pet/house sitter. He took Winston on very long walks, sent daily photos and updates, and kept us informed on Winston's well-being during our absence. We knew Winston was well cared for, and therefore we had no concerns while we were away. Jonathan gave us peace of mind that our "baby" was just fine.”
“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.”
“Carissa took great care of Harley while my husband and I took a quick vacation. Was so nice knowing she was in good hands and we could relax. I could tell from the pics Carissa sent that Harley loves her! 🐶 Also checked in our elusive cat. 🐈⬛ will definitely book again!”

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!
Grace was great with my two dogs while my husband and I were on vacation. Communication was excellent and I was relaxed knowing my pups were well taken care of. We came home to happy dogs! Will hope she is available for our next trip and will highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - West Warwick
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in West Warwick on Rover is $61.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,535 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Warwick. 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 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 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.
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.
