“Tati is so wonderful. She was attentive, gentle, kind and very communicative. We felt so comfortable that our puppy was in good hands and felt that Tati went above and beyond.”
About: I have always grown up with dogs all around me. My mom is a dog lover so we always had 1-3 dogs in the house at all times! I have a full time job during the week, 9-5 Monday through Friday, so I am looking to help on the weekends! I am available for drop in visits at any time on Saturdays and Sundays. I treat all animals as though they are my own. If I am taking care of your animals I promise to take care of them as I would my own pets.
“Yujie was amazing with my two dogs. He was incredibly helpful and always responded very quickly, even last minute. His communication was excellent, which gave me complete peace of mind. I could tell right away that he is kind, patient, and truly cares about the animals he takes care of. I will absolutely continue to use Yujie for my dogs and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate animal care.”
About: I raise my own dog and now have a very talkative cat. I have responsibly taken care of acquaintances’ and friends’ pets for years. Each pet has its own unique personality and I just want to help how I can. I am very flexible at the moment. I am doing full-time online school that doesn’t have a meeting time so I can easily rearrange my day as needed to help. I have more flexibility on weekdays than weekends but can do both. I am great at recognizing what a pet needs while also being firm with boundaries and rules for their safety. I know how to care for not only your pet and home, but will respect both.
About: I have a degree in animal science and behavior from UNH. I am also a certified dog groomer from the Whole Pet Academy. I am experienced with medical emergencies. I have experience with puppies and have whelped and cared for a litter of 8. I am CPR certified and have 5 dogs of my own. I am capable of walking and looking after many dogs because I do it everyday! I have worked for a dog day care/boarding facility as well as dog groomers. I have also been house sitting and dog walking for many different breeds and cats since I was 15. I will love,care and protect each pet as if they were my own. I currently work for myself from home and create my own schedule. I have plenty of time to walk and play and help your pet with any needs they may have! I also have well behaved and social dogs if they ever need a play date or someone to romp around with safely. I have a fenced in area for my dogs that can also be turned into two areas if your pet prefers privacy, I also have large dog crates available for space, I also have an inside pen that the dog can stay in if they are not used to being crated. The dog can sleep with me as well if that is what they are used to, I do have well behaved dogs that would love to play if thats what your pet would enjoy. I want your pet to have as comfortable an experience as possible while their loved one is away. Its what I would want for my pets and I would treat yours the same way. At your house I will follow whatever rules you have for your pet whether it be leashed walks or play in a fenced yard or area
“Amanda has been great with my dog Archie. He has some anxiety and reactivity and she’s handled it all so well. She’s always responded quickly and taken lots of photos during her visits which is so nice since I work out of town.”
About: Hi there — I’m a dedicated, experienced pet sitter with 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to our pets—every dog has their own routines, quirks, comfort levels, and needs, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes your pup feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful, shy and cautious, older and in need of a slower pace, or has specific behavioral or medical needs, communication is everything. Please share any concerns, routines, triggers, fears, or special requests ahead of time—we’ll work together to make their stay as stress-free and personalized as possible. My home offers a large yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of love, structure, and attention. I’m also a mom to two amazing kids (ages 5 and 7) who have been raised around animals and are very respectful of pet boundaries, body language, and personal space. For overnight stays, I do recommend bringing your dog’s crate if they’re crate-trained or may need a familiar, secure space for bedtime or decompression. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for—while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I can do overnights Wednesday Thursday and Fridays! Just reach out to me, schedule updated weekly for other services - overnights stay the same. Thanks! Your pet - your rules! I can play, snuggle, walk, feed, bathe your pet. I can crate your pet if requested. What you say goes!
“Ashley is wonderful. She communicates, send tons of photos, and is extremely trustworthy. We would absolutely hire her again! Lucky to have found her in such short notice as well. Thank you Ashley 👏🏽”

About: Dogs have been apart of my life since day one, they are seriously the best companions. I have trained a few dogs, including my own lab who I got at 7 months as well as cared for senior dogs such as my childhood pup who got up to 14! Im free at some point and time every day! I can check up on dogs, take them for walks and have dogs stay with me overnight any day of the week. I care for pets just how they need to be cared for. I love clear communication with owners so I can completely understand the doggos needs and care for them best. I will update owners all throughout the time I am watching their furry friend.
About: I am a kind and caring person to all animals. I’ve housesat and taken care of neighbors dogs and cats when they were away. I have experience with heat-sensitive pets so I have experience gauging pets’ comfort level in relation to outside weather. I'm free mostly anytime, I’m extremely responsible and will take careful and loving care of all animals that I take care of through rover. I’ve always loved animals and rover is a great opportunity to earn money while having fun. Dogs would get my undivided attention during walks and other services. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I truly love animals and I have time to give them the care they need. Thank you for the consideration! I currently work remote so I am flexible in regards to when a pet needs care at any time. I also have availability on the weekends. I have ample space for pets to enjoy and run around. I live in a friendly neighborhood with minimal car traffic for walks. Open backyard as well.
About: I owned my own pet walking/sitting business in the early 2000's and while I have taken care of many pets over the years, I now have my own, his name is Whaler, and he has been in my life for about 9 years now. I also live in Kittery with my wife and two kids and am available to help with your pets as needed.
About: Im up early as a teacher and home by 3. My dog Genie could use a play pal if considered or maybe solo is more your dog style. I have alot of pet care experience from many farm animals to exotic snakes. Personal Policies: *please contact me with dates and TIMES* for your pets needs.* *24 hour service includes 3 checkins* *transparency is a must-i.e is your dog questionable around kids? *willing to negotiate prices- do you have more than one animal that needs care?/ off site terms* *happy to send photos and check ins of your pets Im currently working as an art teacher so im generally home by 3. Im more of a homebody type that prefers adventures outside than in the city. I have a fenced in yard but in a residential neighborhood. I would consider this if your dog and my dog became friends outside first.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Castle
Our scheduled pet sitter canceled and in desperation, I searched the internet and found Rover. I sent out my request and in minutes James responded. I was instantly relieved. He came over to visit us before leaving for vacation to meet us and our pets. James administered medication and took wonderful care of our 4 cats and dog. We are super grateful for all the help and services James provided us. We will definitely rebook again!!!
Sylvie provided great care for our cat Mucca, keeping her happy and entertained while we were away for a pretty long time. She was very quick to respond to schedule and also made sure to share a detailed review card for each visit. We were lucky to have Sylvie watch Mucca and will be reaching out to her for future care!
Teresa was exactly on time and prepared to play. She is friendly, conscientious, and obviously loves animals. My dogs had a great workout with her in the yard and I felt completely comfortable leaving them with her. I also really appreciate that she respects the boundaries of my anxious doggo and listened to the advice I gave about bonding with her. I now feel confident about hiring Teresa for dog sitting in my home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a New Castle stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 New Castle. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 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.
