“We couldn't be happier with the service provided by Charles & Teresa! Our cats were well cared for and everything was neat and tidy when we got home from our vacation. The daily updates and photos were fabulous!! Highly recommended”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was in middle school. Friends, family, friends of friend, and neighbors have trusted me with their furry family members. As someone who has a little pup myself, I know the care and consideration each individual animal needs and deserves. I've worked with a variety of breads, behaviors, and ages and feel equipped to ensure a safe walk, play time, or check in for your dog. Personally, I've adopted a puppy Cairn Terrier, Ruckus. I've loved training with him, creating a bond, and learning more about dog behavior. It's been a really fun journey. He's a sassy little guy. I have been off Rover for the past few years, moving around and attending Grad School. I am excited to be back to help the Essex community care for their pets. I currently work from home, full time. I have flexibility in my schedule to do walks and drop in visits for your dog. Where I can provide full and undivided attention. When I have a dog I'm looking after, I will ensure safety and fun - however that looks for your doggie. Going for a walk, playing catch in the yard, or even just laying on the couch getting some pets. Your pet will be my priority for the duration of my visit.
“Janine is amazing! She was very attentive to our diabetic cat and showed him tons of love and affection! She administered daily insulin shots as required twice a day. Janine also sent us daily photos of her visits, which were appreciated. Our cat fell in love with her ♥️. We highly recommend Janine for your pet sitting needs. Thanks again Janine, you were awesome!”
About: I have a lot of patience for animals and I love entertaining them, whether that’s playing with them or going on a long walk. For the younger ones, or ones that just have more energy, I would love to run them and keep them in shape. I am super flexible this summer, aside from a few weeks of travel, so whatever works for you works for me. My main priority is going to the gym, but other than that I’m all yours! Whether it’s feeding, walking, brushing, playing, or simply snuggling, I’m always giving my full attention and affection. Also, I think mental stimulation is often overlooked in animal care so I try to incorporate fun games and activities.
About: I am no stranger to the animal world. I have been active in the horse world since five years old. I have over fifteen years of hands on experience with animals of all shapes and sizes; Dogs, cats, horses, livestock, chickens and other various farm animals. I have experience training dogs and a love for working with older rescues! Taking care of the four dogs, horses, and chickens at home requires us to be up by 7 in the morning. My weekend work schedule can be quite busy during the summer seasons, and my weekly schedule tends to be constant yet unpredictable. Please feel free to ask about the scheduling details, as I am very flexible. We have spacious runs, 30 to 60 feet long, and across the road, there are hundreds of acres of trails for our animals to explore. Our mission is to keep them engaged and active, as their world is shaped by what we provide. With plenty of stimulation, we can effectively manage behavior and craft positive relationships.
“Hannah is amazing! I had to take a business trip and was so stressed about leaving my older cat who needs meds 2x a day home. Friends would have stopped in but with Hannah I was sure to get excellent care. She's wonderful and now I know I can take occasional trips and not worry.”

About: I give special attention to every pet I meet, making sure they feel comfortable and safe throughout while always having fun! I can run with dogs, and take special care to accommodate pet parents wishes for the visit. I am currently able to walk anytime during the day before 3pm as I am in between jobs. I am open to scheduling recurring visits if everything goes well! I always make sure to give pets time to warm up to me and be gentle. I love giving pets the love and attention they all deserve :)
About: I’ve had a dog since birth and I’ve loved to train her and work with her. I also really enjoy talking dogs for walks because it is super peaceful and fun. I am currently a college student who is already active. I go for runs at least 3 times a week and can incorporate more walks into my routine. I will abide by the clients rules and how they walk their animal. I also will try to create a bond with the pet so they want to go with me or allow me in their home.
“Samantha helped to drop visit our cats for a week. She was kind and easy to communicate, also was experienced for cat daily care. She even helped us to bring in the packages while we’re away. Appreciate her help and care!”
About: I worked as a dog walker for a year where I walked 6 dogs at a time usually walking around 36 dogs per day. I would also brush out feed and give the dogs water and any meds they may need for the day. Lastly I grew up with dogs my entire life so I know how to care for them very well I an currently babysitting and looking to walk dogs in my free days as a summer job. I am available most days and am happy to do any length of walk or visit needed I have a fenced in large yard and 2 very friendly dogs so if I ever needed to bring your dog to my house it would be completely safe
“Nicole is absolutely wonderful! The regular updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful gestures put our minds at ease while we were away. We returned home to three happy fur babies, thanks to the exceptional care. She was very patient with them as two were rescues and can be very reactive but they were comfortable with her by the end of the visit. We definitely recommend Nicole to anyone seeking trustworthy, loving dog care!”
“Karen was amazing! She sent pictures and wrote a description of the visit each time so I always knew what was going on. I could see how happy our dog was in all of the pictures. I couldn’t have asked for a more caring and dog loving person to watch my dog. Would highly recommend her.”
About: I take pride in my skills to take care of families pets because I treat them how I’d want anyone to treat my own pup. I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember from dogs to cats to rabbits to fish. It can be so tough leaving pets behind, so my hope is to give you some peace of mind while you are gone! I am able to work with your needs to ensure your reservation for care will work with my schedule and your needs. However I can help best!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,582 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newbury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
