“Jadyn was very prompt, flexible when our flights got cancelled on the way out and way back in. She took GREAT care of our babies and our home, sending updates, pictures and leaving our home neat and orderly. We highly recommend Jadyn!!”

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals, so it is much more than just a job to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. From energetic dog who needs extra walks and playtime to a cat who prefers a quiet visit, fresh food, and space to warm up on their own terms. With multiple years of pet-sitting experience, I’m comfortable handling daily feeding and fresh water, walks and exercise, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication when needed, basic cleanup, overnight routines, and plenty of affection and reassurance while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to work with a variety of care needs, including daytime drop-ins, walks, extended visits, overnight stays, and last-minute requests when availability allows. I know how important it is to keep pets on their normal schedule and keep owners updated, so you can relax knowing your animals are safe, happy, and cared for like family. I also bring professional dog-grooming experience and training to every visit. Working as a groomer has taught me how to read dog body language, safely handle dogs with different temperaments, and help even nervous pets feel more comfortable. I have experience working with a variety of breeds, and sizes. My grooming background gives me an extra level of confidence in recognizing when a dog may be stressed, uncomfortable, or simply needs a little extra patience. I specialize in working with high anxiety or animal with special needs. My goal is to provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that fits both your pet’s needs and your schedule. I currently work part time as a dog groomer a few days a week. However my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility. I am able to accommodate almost any schedule. I’m comfortable handling daily feeding and fresh water, walks and exercise, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication when needed, basic cleanup, and overnight routines. I can also provide in-home baths and nail trims for dogs with a small additional fee.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took wonderful care of our dogs and our home while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. Reliable, caring, and trustworthy—we would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve always been a big dog lover! I have worked as a kennel technician between 2021-2024 and the experience was amazing. To add I also have a senior (12) and a middle age dog (7) of my own. I love to take care of them. I am working full time Monday-Thursday with the availability of free evenings. I am fully available Friday-Sunday for dog walking and/or dog-sitting. I currently live in an apartment with two reactive pets. I would prefer to dog-sit as it would be safer for all pets. I am always gauging unbelonging behavior amongst my dogs.
“Nicholas was amazing! He was extremely professional, and communicative. Took care of my dog like it was his own. Kept me updated when I asked, left me with no worries! Definitely will be rebooking in the future!”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was a child. I have vast experience with anxious or nervous dogs and ones with high energy. I have cared for dogs from Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to Great Danes, Mastiffs, and Huskies and currently regularly dog sit two dogs. I have taken care of puppies as well as older dogs with special needs including two diabetic dachshunds that went blind. I also have no issue with changing diapers for dogs as needed! I am currently available any time except for Tuesdays from 1:30pm to 3pm for pet care! I don’t mind checking on pets very early or very late in the day either! I prefer to meet the client/pet prior to beginning pet sitting to ensure I can ask all necessary questions for their care. I have experience with anxious animals and am fast at picking up on each animals specific preferences.
“Seras always does an amazing job with our two kitties! This was the longest we’ve ever been away from our kitties, but we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry, as we knew they were in good hands. Thank you, Seras!”
“Shelby was so good with our dog Jake and cat Mama. Jake went on several outings with her, and the house was well kept and all in order when we got home from our trip. A big plus to Shelby's care is she agreed to our request for a dog sitter on very short notice. I couldn't have asked for a better last-minute sitter. We will use her services for house/pet care again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jordyn. I am 26 years old with an Bachelor of Science degree. I have a passion of caring for animals. I have 1 dog named Leo, he is an American Staffordshire Pitbull. I’ve had him since 2020 when he was 3 months old. I have been dog sitting for 6 years now. I have experience working in a dog daycare for 3 years. My additional duties working in a dog daycare involved keeping the kennels clean of waste, dog fur, stray food and water, and other material that keep dogs from being comfortable away from their owners. I enjoy being able to play and have fun with dogs. While walking your dog I will make sure he/she stays dehydrated throughout the summer/winter. Feel free to contact me about any questions you have or concerns and times that I am available to care. Thank you! Feeding: Start the day by feeding pets according to their specific dietary needs and specific feeding times through out the day. Exercise: Take dogs for a morning/afternoon walk or engage them in playtime. 1. Feeding: Ensure pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs. Provide fresh water daily. 2. Exercise: Take dogs for regular walks or play with them to keep them active. For cats, engage them with toys or provide space for climbing and exploration. 3. Safe Environment: Remove any hazards from the home, such as toxic plants, chemicals, or small objects that could be swallowed. 4. Attention and Affection: Spend quality time with pets to meet their social needs. This can include petting, playing, or simply sitting together. 5. Follow Client Instructions: Adhere to any specific care instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules and preferences. 6. Communication: Maintain open communication with clients about their pet’s well-being and any concerns that arise.
“Brittany was so sweet with Hank and Red for the week she stayed with them! They immediately loved her and her calm energy. She even took off work to spend extra time with them after Hank got a wild hair and ate her grapes off the counter. It gave me so much peace of mind that she was looking after them.”

“Ariel stayed at my house with my dog, Sadie, for 11 days while I was overseas and everything went perfectly! She was great with Sadie, sent picture updates and administered her medicine on time. It was great not to have to worry about Sadie while I was away and my house was tidy and clean when I got back! Thank you, Ariel!”

“Clara had amazing communication. She was very responsive to my messages and shared photos of the pets. She is watching our fur babies and house next month and I'm sure the dogs will be excited to see her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a small child. I enjoy making sure your pets have a great time with me. I currently work from home during the day but am able to come by in the mornings and late afternoon/evening. If you have alternative plans while I work such as a friend or family member stopping by, that is okay with me. I do not work weekends so I am 100% free those days as well. If this is your first booking, use my discount code to save $20! It is BLAKET69308 I will ensure that the pets don’t go outside alone. I will ensure they have all the food and water and treats they need per your instructions.

About: What sets me apart is my experience and genuine love for animals. I have two family dogs of my own who live back home with my parents, and I’ve been dog sitting since I was 12. Being away from my dogs makes me miss having that animal love around, so I would truly enjoy giving your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own! Pet care fits really well into my daily routine because my class schedule is pretty flexible and gives me plenty of time throughout the day. On Mondays, my class is from 6–9 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:30–11:30 AM, and Wednesdays from 12–1 PM. This leaves me available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care! I care for every pet as if they were my own and always make sure to follow the owner’s specific routine and instructions. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable by keeping up with their normal feeding schedule, walks, playtime, and any other care they need. I also love giving them plenty of attention and affection so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away!
About: I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats for family, friends, and classmates. My profession also has me working with all kinds of animals, so I am very used to working with different animals. I work on a 3 days on, 3 days off schedule, so I can work unusual days and hours at times. With this schedule I also am able to work different days each week. I constantly am providing my dog and dogs I care for with enrichment. It could be something small like spraying their tennis ball with a new smell or something complex like a new puzzle feeder. I try to constantly make them think for their treats and to help stimulate their natural senses
“Alexis does a wonderful job! She took great care of Susie while I was out of town for a week. She is dependable and so good to communicate with me about everything. I highly recommend Alexis for all your pet care needs!”

Although i dont have a whole lot of free time I would love to use my extra availability to be able to gain new experiences caring for other people's pets I have my own transportation, as well as a home to watch your pets if needed. I currently own 3 dogs and 7 cats of my own who are well socialized. I enjoy the company of all sorts of animals. Not just limited to dogs and cats. I can work with all sizes and can work around schedules. I look forward to meeting and caring for your animals. My dogs routine starts at 6 am with a potty break and a little fetch but it is mainly set after 6pm when I get off work. We have dinner around 7pm and after an hour break to let bellies settle it’s time for a potty break and play time until around 9. Last potty breaks are at 10 or 11 I have a good sized yard and a playground near by perfect for play time. I have a blue heeler German Shepard mix as well as a pit mix and a Pomeranian.

FAQs for House Sitting - Newalla
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 809 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newalla. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Newalla walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Newalla maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newalla choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
