“Christina is amazing! She is so kind and always goes above and beyond when caring for our two dogs, including our puppy who needs a lot of extra attention. She has great communication, keeps us informed, and even cleans up before leaving the house. We always feel comfortable knowing our dogs are in such good hands!”
“Debbie was amazing! From the meet and greet to each day she was hear was fabulous. The girls loved her from the first meeting. Debbie was prompt, gave updates and even sent pictures.”
“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our pets and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, safe, and loved while we were away. Her communication was great, and it truly gave us peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would 100% book her again. Highly recommend!”
“Great sitter for my disabled dog. It is very difficult to find people willing to take on my blind toothless little poodle. Lee did and made her a part of the family. I did not have to worry at all.”
“Julie was absolutely wonderful with my pets! I received pictures and updates every time she stopped by to let them out and feed them. One of my dogs is shy and she spent time winning him over, all my pets adored her. We will definitely be reaching out again to see if she’s available the next time I go out of town! Thank you again Julie!”
“Jackie was absolutely incredible. I feel very blessed to have met her. She took very good care of my home and pets while I was away for a week. I would highly recommend her and plan to rebook with her soon!”
About: I have been an avid animal care taker since childhood. Growing up on a farm in Oklahoma, I've seen animals of every shape and size- horses, cats, dogs, you name it! Spending time with animals is my own personal sanctuary. 🌞 Currently available at any time unless otherwise specified. I work as a private duty caregiver and times are not fixed for my schedule. Shoot me a quick message! I have a fenced in backyard! If your animal requires a crate, I can accomodate that as well. I do not mind animals in the bed, as long as they are potty trained! If I am visiting another home to care for an animal, I happily will spend extra time before/after walks and feeding to spend quality time with your animal. I believe bonding with the animals makes for a more pleasant experience!
“Courtney did a wonderful job watching our 2 fur babies for a week. She kept us updated throughout the week to let us know that they were doing well. It is a relief to know your pets are being well taken care of so you can enjoy your trip. She left the house in pristine condition when we came home and were able to rest and snuggle with the dogs when we returned.”
“Meredith did a great job watching our two pups. She was very punctual and patient with our dogs -especially Arya who is shy with new people. We could tell immediately when we got home that they were well cared for!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15 for family, friends and neighbors. I’ve house sat for family friends as well as dog sat for co-workers. I enjoy all animals and look forward to helping with your animals :) I work full time 8:30-5 Monday through Friday. I can feed and walk dogs before work as well as after work and full availability on weekends. I have a fenced yard and a black lab named Oscar to keep your animal company. I also have two sweet cats that stick to themselves for the most part. I have a dog crate and am able to crate Oscar if necessary.
About: I am a past worker at Pet Paradise! I have about 7 years experience taking care of dogs. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own with flexible hours and lots of love to give. I’m currently a part time worker and full time student. I have time on weekends and on evenings during the week! I am happy to work around schedule to accommodate to any needs! I have a fenced yard in a friendly neighborhood. I have 3 pit mix babies as well as a shitzu. I have 2 open crates if needed.
About: I have taken care of animals on my own since I was a child ranging from indoor pets of any kind you can think or to large animals on a farm. I started out pet sitting with my mother at a young age riding along and helping her. At the age of 16 I started doing it in my own I treat every pet like family by providing feeding, potty breaks, outdoor playtime, walks, medication administration, baths upon request, cuddles, and individualized care to match their unique needs and routine. Right now I am a stay at home mom who would love to share the love and care I provide for my little ones to your special pets. I am flexible and able to take on last minute bookings with the advantage of being home everyday. And can make multiple trips if needed for your pet. I am also able to stay in your home if that is what comforts your pet the most. I treat every person as if they’re my own and will give them the love care and patience they need. Strict boundaries and routine for your pet, leave me a list and it will be followed as expected. Puppy crate training and makes a mess no worries I can clean it up and bath them to have them comfortable again. You can count on me.
“Xanadu is the literal BEST! 10/10 would recommend. She stayed at our place while we flew out for a weekend wedding trip and was extremely flexible when things went awry as hurricane Ian approached. Our trip was canceled and then back on and she came in clutch. Lots of pics and pets for our pup and floof, our minds and hearts were at ease knowing she was here.”
“Angelina did a great job of taking care of my 2 Boston Terriers. She walked them and took them on an occasional car ride. She also took great care with my house. It may have been cleaner than when I left it. I would definitely recommend her for your pit sitting needs.”
“Crystal is awesome! Being a veterinarian myself, I am pretty particular about who I choose to care for my dogs. Crystal is caring, detail-oriented, and compassionate. She had great communication with us about the booking and about how our dogs were doing and sent lots of pictures of them to keep our minds at ease while we were away. She was super understanding when our start and end dates needed to be changed due to unforeseen circumstances and I appreciated that so much. She has taken care of our dogs in our home twice now and I just booked her again for a longer trip. It is so nice to be able to relax knowing our dogs and our home are in good hands. I highly recommend Crystal to watch your fur babies!”
“We were very happy with the care Kat gave Harley. She kept us informed as how he was doing and sent pictures so we knew he was doing okay. We would recommend her to other potential pet parents.”
“Desiree was fantastic! She was professional, reliable, and communicated with us throughout our trip with frequent updates and lots of great pictures, which gave us real peace of mind. She also brought in our packages, kept our home exceptionally clean, and took wonderful care of our dogs. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Desiree again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Newberry on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 417 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newberry. 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 Newberry 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 Newberry 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 Newberry 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.

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.
