“Claire is so sweet! She had very good communication both before and during our vacation which was important to us since this was her first stay with Ivy. She also sent us regular pictures that made being away easier - at least for us. We live out in the country so our dog has a WiFi collar in case she gets lost, but it also allows us to see her movement. We could tell that Ivy was getting good exercise daily and was being well cared for. We would definitely book Claire again!”
“Selena took great care of our dogs!! She was great at communicating, the dogs were very happy and the house was tidy when we got back :) we would definitely have Selena watch our dogs again”
“She loves dogs. Susan is a great communicator, reliable and friendly and prompt. We could tell within a few seconds that our dogs were in good hands with Susan as their sitter. She did a great job letting us know that the dogs were happy and well cared for while we were at our event. We highly recommend her and will ask her to sit again the next time we are in the area”
“Erica was amazing with my 10 month old rescue. This was my first time using Rover and she made us feel very comfortable, watching our dog in our house for the weekend. Even during all the fireworks and having to give her medication, she made our dog happy and comfortable. Will for sure use her again.”
“Michelle is very responsible and dependable. She took great care of our dog and provided updates during her stay. We appreciate her and will be using her again :) thanks Michelle!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I love spending time in the outdoors. I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, it’s like second nature to me. I grew up with a dog, as well as cared for all of the neighborhood animals. My first official job was at Petco and I worked there for roughly 4 years. I dabbled with dog training and grooming a bit in my time there. I have also volunteered at a variety of animal shelters throughout Oregon and Washington. I now care for my own dog and cat and they are both my fur babies and best friends! I’m available most week days after 3pm, I do work in office full time, so I try my best to accept requests if they align with my schedule! I also work seasonally on the weekends right now, so afternoons (or early morning) is usually best. I try my best to be flexible, always ask me! :) I live in an apartment complex. There is easy access to grass right outside my front door. My animals live free range in the house and access to my bed and the couch at all times. It’s not ideal for boarding for that reason.
About: Psychology graduate and former lead teacher with a patient, dependable approach to pet care. I treat every pet like family, follow routines carefully, provide regular updates, and ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, which allows me to provide reliable care, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the week. I follow each pet's routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on providing a safe, comfortable environment and giving pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship while their owners are away.
“It was a pleasure having Deborah sit with our 14 year old pup Dexter. Deborah quickly responded to our initial inquiry and met with Dex and I shortly afterwards. She communicated the day before her scheduled sit and arrived promptly at an agreed upon time. She asked all the appropriate questions about feeding, Dexter's daily routine, and what she could do to keep him comfortable during our absence. Deborah communicated during her sit to let us know that all was well. We returned to a happy dog and a tidy house. Would recommend Deborah and we will be using her services again.”
“Jordan is literally amazing! She did so well with our fur babies! They loved her. Came home to a spotless house happy dogs and I couldn’t have been more pleased! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Billi outdid himself. I was really nervous to leave my pet for the first time and Billi was really supportive and cared for my pet as I would have myself! I highly recommend Billi and will definitely call him again!”

Brianna was amazing with our anxious dog! I have never left my rescue dog with anyone outside of friends or family due to his skittish nature and separation anxiety. So when we needed a pet sitter last minute I was nervous but Brianna completely put us at ease. My dog took to her right away, it was a miracle! She made sure to update regularly. I would highly recommend Brianna and I am sure we will book again in the future!
Claire was a wonderful pal to our 3 dogs! They were so chill when we returned home that I’m not Ute they missed us at all. Ranging in age from 2-14 years old, they each have their little quirks, Claire handled them all with ease. Our house was as clean and tidy as it was the day we left. We highly recommend her!
Ella was so good to our three dogs All three needed meds and are older dogs Also Ella was so flexible as our daughter and family lost power and needed to stay in our house She had to wait a few days to come start She took the pups on a walk and made the house all clean Thank you Ella She even left a sweet paw print Christmas card and cookies for us
Our family of 3 Aussies and 1 indoor kitty did great with Tatiana! We so appreciated how conscientious she was with their care and the care of our home! Everything was nice and clean as we left it and most importantly our fur babies were secure, happy and healthy upon our return!

FAQs for House Sitting - Newberg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Newberg on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,284 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newberg. 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 Newberg 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 Newberg 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.
Tip: 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 Newberg 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 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
