Dog Sitting in Westerly

“Julia was great with our pup! She was prompt, friendly, and was very understanding even though we had a last minute change on our end. We look forward to her coming back and would highly recommend her.”

“Isis did a great job taking care of my pets. I had peace of mind knowing they were left in good hands. She responded to my messages very quickly, and kept me informed. My dog was being a little difficult for her, but she worked it out. She made sure all of my pets were safe and well cared for. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve always owned a dog since I was born. I grew up with a beautiful german shepard and currently own 2 mixed breed rescue dogs. Some people call me the animal whisperer because whenever I go to their house their dog/cat runs to me and wants to enjoy my company. I don’t have professional experience with pets but I did personally train my two dogs, and they are very well behaved and listen to commands. I’m currently working part-time while searching for a new steady full-time job. In the mean time, I felt like taking this opportunity to supervise other owners’ dogs when they’re in need and when I have free time to make some extra cash would benefit everyone. I own two dogs, Heidi and Bailey. Heidi is an absolute sweetheart and very down to earth. Bailey is also adorable and just wants to show love, however she was a rescue pup and suffers severe anxiety, ptsd, and separation anxiety. While my two dogs do get along with each other, Bailey can get quite protective and aggressive with dogs she has not met before. There have been times where in a large open space she was able to calmly meet other dogs. I would be able to come to my client’s house to pet-sit but would not be able to bring my client’s pet to my house just for the safety of the situation and our pets.

“Our fur babies Cleo & April love Sue & look forward to her visits. She takes extra special care of them. They have become very comfortable with her in a very short period of time!”

About: I have experience providing reliable pet care, including dog walking, feeding, and attentive supervision to ensure pets stay safe, active, and well cared for. I have done jobs over 2 weeks or occasional walks. I am currently working part-time and am a Graduate student, so I should have plenty of time to help with daily walks or overnight stays. May need to work around occasional 6 hour shifts or a traveling weekend, but otherwise available I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times, whether in my home or the client’s home.

“Erin speaks dog! It took no time for her to win approval from my shy pup. She is also a good communicator with humans. Erin is punctual and respectful, plus she is great at remembering my dog’s needs.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, and currently have six kitties and one high-energy dog, (his name is Rover, for real)! He’s a hound mix, 80ish pound rescue who keeps me busy! I’ve often helped my kids with their pet sitting work, and enjoy animals immensely!! I work part-time in Westerly, and would love to add pet sitting and/or dog walking to my day. I’m currently available 7am-6pm Monday through Thursday, but at some point around mid Oct, my availability will be 3-6pm Mondays through Wednesdays, and 2pm - 6pm on Thursdays. Generally a dog walk would include only your dog(s), I don’t double up clients. I walk for a full 30 minutes, and then play, cuddle and take some notes for 10-15 minutes so the rate for service is for about 45 minutes. Same for drop in visits, I will keep your cat(s) and or dog(s) happy by hanging out with them, especially for med visits and just people time. I never let my dog off leash unless we are in a fenced in area. We are very safe by walking only on sidewalks and we generally avoid other animals if we can help it just to be on the safe side.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I believe taking care of someone else’s pets like I would my own. My dog is like another family member and I understand that other pet owners feel the same about their pets! I work 5 minutes from my home. I’m in the office at 8am, let the pets out from 12-1pm and return home at 4pm. I do not work nights or weekends and have a flexible personal schedule. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for pets to exercise. I own a single family home that is 1400 sq ft that the pets have full access to.

About: I’m a 41 year old professional who loves animals. I have a 4 year old cat of my own and have always wanted a puppy as a child. Animals are loving and calming to me. I help care for them they help me. I will dog walk which keeps them happy and me active. I will drop in on cats and dogs to feed play with and help go to the bathroom. If it’s the right fit for your family and pup I would stay 1 night a week and definitely weekends overnight while people are away or traveling. I am an open communicator, reliable, respectful, trustworthy professional. Please get to know me so I can get to know you and your animal has the best experience possible. I currently have lots of availability and I would be my pleasure to walk and check in for your pups and cats several times a week. I have a yard on a dead end street, a big basement and am very close to Wilcox Park, ready for long walks in great neighborhood with lots to explore.

“Aimee is wonderful! She is easy, flexible, and reliable. And wonderful with animals. Great person and petsitter!”

Also have lived with cats and enjoy being with them as well! My work schedule varies every week. I choose my schedule on a month to month basis. I am out of town sometimes for work. But my schedule can be flexible. I have a fenced in yard and big area to run around and play. Do not mind crating if needed and what you’re comfortable with for your dog.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have owned dogs, cats, a horse, rabbits, birds, rodents and reptiles. I currently have two cats and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs and routines.  I offer walks, drop ins, and overnight care for both dogs and cats. I’m flexible whether your dog (or cat) wants a long or short walk, playtime, or just someone to keep them company. I pet sit outside of Rover and am happy to provide local references. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always provide frequent updates, photos, and videos. I work full-time in Guilford during the week, but I’m available before and after work, on weekends, and for overnight house sitting. My Rover calendar is set to weekends only, but I can often accommodate weekday requests as well depending on location and timing. I know it’s important to trust someone with your pets and in your home. I follow instructions closely, help keep routines consistent, and keep your pet safe and comfortable. I’m happy to provide references and send frequent updates, photos, and videos.

“Sarah was great. Highly recommend.”

About: Currently I have a chocolate lab and we get 2 to 3 walks a day but when I couldn’t be there for those walks due to my work schedule in the past I would rely on a family member to stop in check on him and that alway gave me good piece of mind knowing he was in good hands that he was safe and I’m sure that every dog owner wants to feel the same way. I have always thought of my dogs as one of the family in making sure they are comfortable,cared for and safe and I’m sure I can provide the same care for your dog when needed because I feel your dog could be one of my family. Thank you

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life all from the animal shelter with different past and behaviors. I’ve learned to help with these traits and have love and compassion for all dogs. Nothing would make me happier then taking care and walking your dogs! :) I’m currently only picking up shifts at my job so I have lots of free time. And I also go to community college tuesday and and thursday. So most days and hours can be adjusted to fit your schedule! I have a fenced in yard and a loving playful dog my self. I do have a smaller home so it likely only smaller dogs will be able to come to my house. But i’m vary adaptive to other people homes and living situations, and taking care of your pup!

About: I am a surrogate caregiver when you cannot be home to meet your pets needs. I have experience with cats and dogs. Let me help! I can be available seven days a week for in-home care and/or walk breaks. My hours can vary based upon the needs of your pet. I can follow any directives that you provide in order to care for your pet in your absence. I have experience in giving medications as prescribed

“Nick was everything I could have asked for and more when it comes to someone watching my dog while I was away. Right from the beginning, he set up a meet and great which I thought was so professional and thoughtful. He wanted to make sure that my dog would feel comfortable with him. He was right on time for the meeting and came prepared with questions on how he could provide personalized care for my dog. While I was away, Nick gave me detailed updates on how my dog was doing and provided amazing quality pictures of her. From start to finish Nick made me feel comfortable and confident that my dog would be safe, cared for, and happy. I will definitely be requesting Nick in the future. I recommend that everyone does. He is wonderful. I cannot thank him enough for providing quality and excellent care for my dog while I was away. thank you Nick!!”

About: I believe that with age comes wisdom, patience, and experience that simply can’t be taught. I am lucky enough to have reached the age where I have gained said wisdom, patience, and experience that only age can bestow upon us! For this reason, in addition to my 30 years of experience caring for dogs is what I believe separates me from other pet sitters. I have over 30 years of experience caring for both large and small dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Over the years, I’ve developed not only strong, reliable caregiving skills but also a deep and genuine love for dogs. Their happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that dogs are not “one size fits all.” Every dog has a unique personality, temperament, energy level, and set of needs. Some thrive on long walks and endless games of fetch, while others prefer a slower pace and extra cuddle time. I take the time to learn each dog’s routines, preferences, and comfort zones so I can provide personalized care that helps them feel secure and loved. Our family recently lost our beloved Chiweenie, Bailey, at 14 years old. She was truly part of our family, and caring for her through every stage of her life only deepened my understanding of the changing needs dogs have as they age. While we don’t currently have a dog, we are looking forward to welcoming the next fur baby into both our hearts and our home. My posted rates are all “starting at” rates. Once I meet a prospective family and learn more about their dog’s specific needs, we can always discuss and adjust rates accordingly. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I am attentive, patient, and committed to providing individualized, compassionate care for every dog entrusted to me. New Clients Use My Code For $20 Off of Your First Service! https://www.rover.com/sit/katiel73869 I care for your pet(s) the way I cared for my own pet; with love, careful attention, (not only for signs of what s/he may need, but also to help build a bond with your fur baby, and for safety), and respect. Your dog is welcome both on my couch and in my bed. If this is something that is against the rules in your home, please let me know so that I’m not unknowingly breaking your rules! The best way to explain how I will treat your dog is, “I will treat your dog(s) like I would treat my own,” or “I will treat your dog the way I would want someone to treat my dog!”
