House Sitting in Newport

“Stacey was a great sitter for my slightly 'prickley' cat Bijou. Bijou has had a history of trauma and Stacey was very conscious of this and treated her with respect and excellent care. I was surprised at how interactive Bijou was with Stacey, which goes to show Stacey is a natural with pets.Stacey also took care to clean up the kitchen when finished.Definite rebooking for Bijou!!!”

“Glendon gave us continuous updates with pic and videos of our happy pups. They were relaxed and well taken care of. Glendon cares for animals and makes us feel reassured when we are away. Will definitely book with him again.”

“Melissa took excellent care of our pups while we were away for the weekend! She kept in touch and sent pics and videos of them frequently. Our house was immaculate when we got home and the dogs were well loved and cared for. Melissa is great with animals and made us feel good about leaving the dogs with her. She is friendly, communicative, and upbeat- a great sitter!”

About: Grew up with animals including lizards, cats, dogs, birds and horses. Volunteered in animal shelters doing all care of cats and dogs! Love animals :) I volunteer at the shelter, so I work short shifts at odd hours but I am fully available at almost any other time of the day! I have three cats currently who are the most spoiled animals, they get lick mats, vitamins, and all sorts of other fun enrichment. They are also some of the kindest cat you will ever meet! I would extend this love for my cats to your animal offering homemade pumpkin puree treats (if allowed) and plenty of attention and play time!

“Emma has watched our very needy basset hound on several occasions. She is amazing with our dog and very knowledgeable about animals in general. A huge bonus is that she is completely trustworthy, she stays in our home and gives us total peace of mind. I would highly recommend Emma for any of your animal care needs!”

“Our pups were so happy with Kirsten. She walked them daily cuddled with them and sent lots of pics to let us know how things were going. She was amazing and we would not hesitate to book with Kirsten again. Great experience for all of us!”

“Sara loves animals as much and she does running and walking. She would be the best dog walker in my opinion. She also enjoys being active which can benifit when a dog wants to play and have fun.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs cats rabbits and horses ever since I was 10. I’ve cared for new born kittens as well as senior cats at the Humane Society for almost 10 years. And cared for my neighbors’ dogs. From volunteering I’ve learn much about behaviors for both dogs and cats and have discovered I have a talent for working with them. I decided at retiring that I would like to begin in home pet sitting earning a living. I also manage an Airbnb with pets and have had great experiences with both dogs and and cats. I’m available all times but desire at least a week in advance notice. Daily weekly and hourly with breaks when needed for managing my Airbnb. Usually to clean after check out. Also per your needs I will need to have a brief break in the day to drive home to make sure my cats are fed and happy with some play time if I am asked to do overnights. I have 4 cats now. They get fed on special foods on a schedule. When they are eating I clean their cat boxes and when they are finished, I clean their bowls. Before they begin their daily naps , I play with each of them. They range in age from 19 to 1 yr. I also check their water bowls throughout the day or night depending. I can give them treats anytime. I also have learned various medical skills and hope to go back to school for a third degree as a vet tech and if life allows veterinary practice.

“Rachel is one of the most caring people in the world with animals. Not only has she taken in animals no one else cared for, she’s gone above and beyond for the animals in her life that aren’t even hers”

“Thank you Libby! Great communication all around and our pups were in a great mood when we got home. She sent pictures throughout the day and will definitely use Libby again!”

“I have known Abi for quite some time now and I can confidently say that they are an incredibly responsible and caring pet caregiver. Her dedication and genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction they have with them. Abi always goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of pets under their care. She is attentive to their needs, providing them with proper nutrition, exercise, and ample playtime. Abi understands the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved at all times. What sets Abi apart is her exceptional level of responsibility. She follow schedules diligently, making sure that pets are fed on time, given any necessary medication, and taken for regular walks or outings. Abi is also quick to notice any changes in behavior or health and takes immediate action to address it, whether it's scheduling a vet appointment or adjusting their care routine accordingly. I have seen firsthand how Abi interacts with animals and it's truly heartwarming. She have a gentle and patient approach, always taking the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs. Her ability to connect with animals is remarkable, earning trust and forming lasting bonds with even the most timid or anxious pets. Overall, I highly recommend Abi as a pet caregiver. She is responsible and caring nature combined with her love for animals makes them an exceptional choice to entrust your beloved pets with. You can rest assured knowing that Abi will provide the utmost care, attention, and affection for your furry friends.”

“Addison was great! She is a good communicator who sent daily updates of our pup. She also sent some pictures which was sweet. When we noticed on the puppy cam that our dog was in an area she shouldn't be one day, Addison quickly went over to fix the issue. Will definitely work with her again!”

“Crystal was the best!!!!! My Yorkie has separation anxiety so bad I have not left her alone in her six years. Someone referred me to Rover.com and I picked a sitter near my house to leave her with because I work over night and my husband is out of town on a business trip. I planned to leave her for 3 nights and after the first night she told me she could not watch her any more because she was so bad, needless to say i got a bad first impression of this girl when i first met her. She had no personality and seemed so cold to my Yorkie. When I picked her up in the morning she said my dog scratched her front door and was to hard to handle. I was so hurt by this because I know my dog and she loves everybody, even other animals. I then went back to rover.com and found Crystal. What a blessing!!!! Crystal was so loving and kind and she loved my Yorkie. I went to work with such peace of mind, what a relief that was. I cannot say enough about how good she is and I know now I have a sitter to leave her with whenever needed. Crystal e-mailed me after the first night and told me what an angel my baby is and that she couldn't wait to see her the next night. When I took her home after the first night of three that Crystal watched her she was so calm and not all worked up as she was with the first sitter I left her with. Crystal your a God send I am so happy to have found you!!!!! ”
