About: I've cared for animals of all ages for 8 years of my life. I've cared for cats, dogs, bunny's, hamsters, fish, etc. I grew up with being around animals all my life. I have a daily routine caring for my own cat, which includes feeding him, making sure he always has fresh water, playing with him, and scooping his litter box everyday. I completely change and clean his litter box weekly, and I bathe him twice a week. I also trim his nails every 2 weeks. I care for my own cat by feeding him, providing fresh water, etc. I also feed and play with my mom's cat when I visit. When caring for clients pets, I follow their instructions and routines, making sure their pets feel safe.
“Kyleigh is a rockstar! My dog (Rocky) is a handful, but she handled him with grace. I could tell from all the photos and videos that she spent quality time with him during her visits, and that’s important to me. She went above and beyond and far exceeded my expectations. Next time I travel, she will be my first choice for watching my best friend! Highly recommend!”
About: I don’t have any special training but I am very patient, loving, experienced & happy to just hang with your pets!! Can’t wait to meet them! I am a bartender and mainly work nights. So I am free during the day. I also only work about 3/4 days a week, so I have plenty of time to show your pet the proper attention. I have a full fenced in yard. 2 dogs, 1 rescue mix (65lbs) 1 pug/schnauzer mix (23lbs). 2 cats (1 acts like a dog herself) my pets have free roam of the house but I will crate yours if you prefer. I will abide by your rules!
“Kaitlynn is a joy. She came in 4 times over the weekend to look in on our Kitty. She sends pictures and puts any worry you may have on the back burner. Prompt and always keeps you updates. We have used Kaitlynn several times to stay over too and she does a wonderful job. Highly Recommend Kaitlynn.”
“Rebecca took excellent care of my slightly anxious and socially awkward rescue cat named Garage while I was away. I was a little worried leaving her for 3 days because of her behavioral issues, but found that she was in great hands with Rebecca. We will definitely be requesting her again!”
About: I love working with animals because I can advocate for them as they don’t speak the same language as us. I graduated with a degree in Animal Science and currently work as a veterinary assistant, so I bring both knowledge and hands-on experience to every pet I care for. I’m trained to notice when something may be off whether it’s changes in behavior, appetite, or physical signs and I’m comfortable doing basic checks like gentle palpation. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priority, and I treat every animal like my own. I am available for full-weekend care and Weekday evening visits. Because I work a standard 9–5 schedule during the week, I dedicate my Saturdays and Sundays and weekday evenings to giving your pets my undivided attention! Feel free to reach out though, I can be flexible :) My top priority is providing care that respects both your home and your pet’s established routine. I strictly follow all owner instructions to ensure boundaries are never crossed, as I want both you and your pets to feel completely comfortable and at ease.
About: Hi, my name is Chelsea. I grew up with animals, one of my mother's dogs is currently 13 years old, and her older dog who was recently put down, who was my first dog ever. I have dog-sat for lots of people in the past, and I also have experience with deaf dogs. I have a 7 year old energetic Catahoula named Benny and he has had some medical difficulties in the past, but he has gotten better. I fall in love with every dog I meet and love them like they are my own; which means lots of pets, cuddles, walks, kisses and attention. I also have a cat, so an extra friend or two to look after is no big deal to me!
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up with dogs and cats, my family always treated our pets as family, and I’ve carried that same philosophy into adulthood. In 2019, I adopted a senior cat who was diagnosed with diabetes shortly after joining my family. For the next three years, I dedicated myself to making his golden years as happy, healthy, and comfortable as possible. From administering insulin twice daily and keeping up with his care routine to encouraging exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection, caring for him taught me so much about patience, attentiveness, and the importance of understanding an animal’s individual needs. After saying goodbye to him in September 2023, I decided to take a break from pet ownership, but my love for animals hasn’t gone anywhere! In recent years, I’ve continued caring for friends’ cats and dogs, and I’m excited to get back into a regular routine of spending time with furry companions before eventually adopting again. My friends and family like to joke that I’m an “animal whisperer” because animals of all personalities seem to gravitate toward me! Whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or simply looking for a cozy spot to curl up, I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each animal unique. I approach every pet with love, patience, and respect for their routines and comfort levels. I know how much trust goes into leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Plus, I’m always excited for an opportunity to make a new fur friend! My schedule is currently pretty flexible, and I’m excited to make more time for caring for furry friends! I have a few upcoming weekend commitments, which are already reflected in my Rover calendar. I’m anticipating starting a new full-time position toward the end of October, which would likely have me working Monday through Friday, 8 AM–5 PM, with a mix of remote and in-office days. As my schedule becomes more established, I’ll continue updating my availability accordingly. In the meantime, I’m happy to coordinate with pet owners to find times that work for everyone! I’ve always considered pets to be part of the family, and I believe that when someone entrusts me with their furry family member, they deserve the same love, patience, and attention I gave my own pets. Every animal has their own personality, preferences, and comfort level, and I think it’s important to respect that! Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or shy and takes a little longer to warm up, I’m happy to let them get comfortable at their own pace. I love learning what makes each pet feel happy and secure, whether that’s their favorite toys, approved treats, a familiar routine, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company. I also take the time to understand each owner’s expectations, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, household rules, and any behavioral considerations. For dogs, that includes understanding their leash manners and comfort around other animals. For cats, I’m especially mindful of their indoor/outdoor boundaries and preferred ways of interacting. Having cared for my own senior cat, Mit Mit, I know how important it is to maintain a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I’m attentive to potential hazards, keeping things tidy, cleaning up after pets, and respecting the home I’m welcomed into. Above all, I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident in my care. I’ll always do my best to follow your instructions, respect your pet’s boundaries, and treat your home and furry family member with the same consideration I’d want for my own!
“Georgia saved us when we needed a last minute sitter after our previously booked sitter cancelled morning of. She was quick to respond and was able to get to our house with only 1.5 hours notice. It seemed like our puppy had a good time with her and was well cared for during the hour drop in. Definitely will book again!”
About: I've had animals my whole life! I currently take care of my own 2 senior kitties and know they need special attention. I also had two dogs (puggles) from the same litter for 10 years before sadly losing one to cancer. This experience helped me learn how to care for sibling pets and a pet that is grieving the loss of another. Additionally, in high school, I took many companion animal classes and learned from industry experts how to care for pets. My neighbor was a dog groomer and showed dogs professionally, and I accompanied her at times to help with the dogs. IMPORTANT SCHEDULING NOTE: I am typically available between 5-11pm Monday to Friday, or anytime Saturday and Sunday. I am typically available anytime Saturday and Sunday. Monday-Friday I am available between 5-11pm. I am a very routine person and am known for getting to places early/ on time. No special request is too "weird" to me! I can ensure your pets have free roam of the place or are secured in a crate! I can take dogs outside in a fenced yard or on a leash if there is no fence. I also fully understand pets can be messy and never mind if I have to clean up any accidents (my experience with senior pets and a dog with bladder cancer taught me that).
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 20 years old. Friends have relied on me to do week long overnights with their pets and walk them each day! I love dogs and hope to work with your family soon! I'm currently a teacher looking to make some money and hang with my favorite animals! I love walking. My schedule will become more flexible in the next couple of weeks! I always listen to what the owners prefer. I make sure that they are on a leash when needed and treat the animals with respect and care.
About: Dogs have been an integral part of my life and my love for them knows no bounds. Growing up around their limitless affection, wagging tails and warm hearts has shaped who I am today. Working from home 4 days a week allows me to be a constant presence for my dog and hopefully yours too! Our routine ensures that the dogs receive the attention, exercise, and love they deserve while I am working from home with them! I have a fenced in yard and one very friendly and playful pug Bella who will keep your pup company. Will only take 1 dog at a time.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life! I’ve had multiple cats and both small and large dogs (including a German shepherd). I absolutely adore animals 😊 I work from home full time, so it is fairly easy to schedule drop ins throughout the day or keep an animal with me during work. I live in an apartment complex with two cats that are very used to dogs. There are plenty of places to walk dogs around my complex as well as a dog park!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and started fostering dogs when I was just 6 years old. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies who need extra attention and energy, as well as older dogs who may need a gentler approach. What sets me apart is that I don’t just see pet care as a job—I treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how important trust is, and I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Since I’m a college student, my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m able to fit pet care into my mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what works best for you and your pup. I love being active, so daily walks and playtime are easy to build into my routine. On weekends, I usually have even more free time, which makes it perfect for longer walks or extra visits if needed. I always put safety first—leash walks, fresh water, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for, whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping a calm environment. Your pup’s happiness and trust are my top priorities!
About: I've been responsible for taking care of pets ever since I can remember- cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments. However, for the past few years I've been traveling a lot and so do not have any pets currently. Throughout the years, I've been a Vet Tech and adopted and fostered puppies through hospice dogs and several cats, and have had extremely friendly and reactive dogs. I'm willing to meet your pet where they are. I work from home and really enjoy my area of the world, so I tend to be a homebody during the week. I go for daily beach walks and enjoy swimming when it's warm enough. My neighborhood is great for walking, too. I love to get out and hike or explore on the weekends, but am also happy with projects around the house. High energy pups and couch potatoes are both welcome. I have a 4 foot fenced in yard and plenty of couch space. It's important to do what I can to help your pet be comfortable in a new environment, so I try to keep to their schedule as much as possible. I do have a large crate and room for you to bring your own if that works better. The ticks are out in force so please make sure your dog is on preventive. I cannot accept dogs with bite history or food/toy aggression.
About: Hii! I volunteered at shelters but I preferred building a relationship with pets in Rhode Island :) I grew up around many dogs and cats. A fun challenge was when we adopted our German Shepherd puppy! Training him was a fun challenge, but it was harder (yet more rewarding) when we adopted his brother as well! Now they’re grown and trained but I can still see the little puppy they are in their eyes! I also have a senior dog that needs extra care, but I love making sure she’s comfy and gets her massages. I work a hybrid 9-5, so I can make time mornings and evenings for pet care. On my work from home days I am more flexible to do care during the day. Weekends are fully available! In your home I would make sure pets are in their designated areas and can’t escape! Cleanliness is the largest thing I would keep in mind while making sure your pet is comfortable!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Warwick
Kaylie has been amazing with my two kitties who are not the easiest to care for. She consistently sent photos and details daily of all of their happenings and knew exactly what to do to calm them down. She has been just a pleasure and I HIGHLY recommend her! I will be using her again for all of my trips!
Shannon did a superb drop-in visit for our Zach and Zelda. I appreciate her great follow up communication (and pictures) in taking wonderful care of our pups. Our Zach has epilepsy and it is reassuring to know that she administered his medication timely, gave them supper and let them outside. Thanks again, Shannon!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Warwick is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $23 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 November 2026, there are 2,497 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Warwick. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Warwick. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
