“Riely has been our drop in sitter for about a month now and has been a great help. She’s been flexible with our schedules and when on the job has taken care of our doggos in a timely manner. Would highly recommend to anyone in the Beaver area looking for as dog sitting/walker.”
“I had a great experience! She took wonderful care of my dogs, kept me updated, and sent me photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive, reliable, and very caring with them. I’ll definitely be using her services again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”
About: I have never worked in a professional animal care environment, however, I have taken care of pets for many years, domesticated and feral. I have rescued many cats & dogs, either kept for my family or found a family for them. I have a special love for all animals, even the feisty ones! I understand there are boundaries and each animal comes with different needs and requirements, even if its pretending to eat so they will eat. Haha. I have experience with many different breeds of dogs & cats, although I still do ask to provide as many details as possible to ensure their specific needs are met. I currently have one cat & 2 bearded dragons so I have experience with some reptiles as well. I have trained a few dogs with basic tricks such as sit, stay & rollover with treats as rewards. I am the go to for many friends, families & neighbors when it comes to them needing someone to care for their pet while they are away. I am capable of feeding, cleaning, walking & spending time with them. I am currently working part time and always on the move! I can care for your pet early mornings, whether it be a feeding or a walk in the afternoon and possible evening drop in. I have to be home before 8 though or kitty will be furious. I will be unable to bring your pets into my own home however, I would be willing to take them for a walk or a RIDE! To the P.A.R.K, based on discussion and needs. I can care for your pet in your home whether that be feeding, playing with toys, exercise in the yard or going for a leashed walk to sniff every bush. I am fragrance free as I know some fragrance bothers many pets. I do understand many animals are based on trust & boundaries which I am willing to take the time to develop that with them.
About: I've interacted with the smallest to the largest dog breeds out there. They all just want to be loved. I enjoy playing with all kinds of puppers. I'm currently not working, but I am actively looking for full time work and was recommended this by a friend that does this in her spare time due to an injury. I know how and what to look out for if anything were to be wrong with your fur babies. I've had some formal training as a veterinary technician.
“This was my first booking and I'm very happy! I'm pretty anxious about leaving my dogs for a day or more with anyone. Not just new people, friends and family as well since anything can happen. Both of my dogs have chronic health conditions so it's easy to cause them to flare up. There were no issues at all with their health or anything. Christopher made me feel very comfortable and even came over the day before to meet me and my pups. My GSD is 100lbs so he can be intimidating, it really soothed me to see that he was comfortable with that. He and his wife also took both of them for a couple walks during 2 of the 4 drop in visits! I'm sure my dogs absolutely loved that and my GSD pulls like a mushing dog on a leash. I can definitely recommend Chris for care of your dogs”

“We have had Leah come to our house for both overnight stays and drop in services. She is a great caretaker, and easy to communicate with. She is mature and responsible. We are grateful that we found her!”
“Amber is the best! She made sure my sweet baby was well taken care of! She has great communication and is always willing to do the best she can for your furry friends! I will definitely be booking her for my next trip!”
“Tori was perfect! I felt extremely comfortable leaving my girl (dog some call her) with Tori, especially knowing she works with animals for a living. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure everything went smoothly while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was in such good hands. We’re so grateful for the time she spent with her and would absolutely book with Tori again!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and enjoy caring for them and any other type of animal that is needing cared for.

“Brook-lynn is great to Max. He's always so excited after a stop in visit with her. She communicates well and always sends me photos. I'd high recommend letting her take care of your fur baby!”
About: I had a dog for 15 years that passed away a couple years ago now. I have been taking care of my family and friends dogs/cats for years now! I love playing with all animals and showing them love. I am usually available on weekends and most weekdays during the day and during the evening. I love going on walks and finding new parks to go hiking. I am very attentive and always make sure that the hiking trails are not too dangerous for the dogs. I live in Cranberry Woods, near Wexford. I am an outgoing, friendly girl that will provide the best care for your dog/cat/etc. I am currently working remote and I need something on the side to get me out of the house and moving! I do leave for meetings but I would like something fun and active to keep me active through the day!! I am very attentive to dogs and always make sure they are in a safe environment. I do not offer boarding so I would make sure your space is safe for the pet.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Brighton
Robert knew how to administer eye ointment when I discovered our kitty needed them the day before our trip! He swung by that night to make sure he had all the info he needed, and assured me he’d done the same with his own cat. It was such a relief and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation! We’re so lucky to have Robert as our go-to catsitter.
Even though I had an issue with one of my dogs, she continued caring for my other two and was incredibly attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. She is such a sweetheart—kind, loving, attentive, and very careful with the dogs. Thank you so much for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in New Brighton is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $24 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 October 2026, there are 2,228 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across New Brighton. 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 .
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.

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 .
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.
