“It was my first time leaving my pup with another family ever and they made me feel so at ease with updates and pictures daily. They were so calm even though my pup was very nervous at first. I HIGHLY recommend trusting them with your pup and I would definitely contact them again for boarding my pup.”
“Alesya, it's a fantastic discovery for our family. Our one-year-old Maltese Snowie has a great time staying with her and her family. I felt great when I met her! She is a lovely, responsible person. She also sends me daily reports, videos, and pictures of our little girl while she watches her. We definitely will book her again and refer her to our friends 🥰”
“First overnight for our puppy with Ruby and her family! As with the last time Cusco spent time at Ruby’s home, he got so much love, attention, and playtime. I received many photos and videos while we were away, always making us feel comfortable and giving updates! I know Cusco is already looking forward to going back :) thank you, Ruby!”
“Kelsey was amazing with our dog- she communicated wonderfully, sent pictures and updates, and our dog came home happy and exhausted from all the fun she had. We’ll definitely book with Kelsey in the future.”
“My dog stayed with Shannon for a week, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Shannon was friendly, responsive, and provided daily photo and video updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Shannon was also very accommodating with the pick-up time which I really appreciated. I think my dog enjoyed his little own "vacation" too!”
“Michael was fantastic!! I wish I was not moving out of state because he would be my first choice of pet sitter for Jackson! Michael sent daily updates and photos while I was away and made me so comfortable about leaving Jackson for a first time. Nothing but the highest of praises for Michael!!! thank you again!!!”
“This was the first time our little dog was going to stay overnight in a new place. Pam was helpful and communicated how he was doing as the week progressed. She was so kind! Our dog was healthy and happy when we picked him up.”
“Haley was very communicative and took excellent care of Tucker! He can be a handful and she assured me that she kept him out of trouble and sent me pics and updates throughout his stay. Tucker would definitely love to stay with Haley and he family again!”
“Nova was well cared for from what we could tell with all of the photo updates. We were constantly kept informed of how Nova was doing and we couldn’t have asked for more considering all of the walks, activities, and interactions the two had.”
“Jennifer was great! She was able to watch my girls on short notice and they came home happy and tired. Would definitely bring the girls back or recommend Jenn to any pup owner!”
“Amanda and family were awesome to my corgi Buttons. Amanda sent photos everyday, and responded to my inquiries about Buttons being good to her pets. Amanda was also able to wrap Buttons' left front leg that she sprained when she jumped on my friend, and to re-wrap it when Buttons would tear it off. I highly recommend Amanda to watch your pets.”
“Overall an easy and great experience! We knew our pups was well taken care of. We know he had a great time as he was exhausted when he took him home after being gone for one night. Would highly recommend and will continue to book in the future!”
“Alexa was great with George. She was so kind, patient and communicative throughout his stay with her. It provided us with great peace of mind knowing that he was cared for so well. We cannot wait to use her again without hesitation”
“Audria is always great with our senior dog. She sends us photos and updates frequently. We know our pup is in good hands with Audria. Thank you for taking good care of our girl!”
“Nancy is a fantastic sitter! She is so attentive and took such great care of Frankie. It was our first time using her services and she made sure that not only I, but my dog, felt comfortable before the stay and during the entirety of it. She’s on top of her communication and I loved seeing how well cared for Frankie was while we were gone. Will definitely work with her again in the future. Thank you, Nancy!”
“Cynthia and Patrick and their dog Poppy are a delight! They took SUCH good care of our fur baby. They were responsible with his dietary needs and safety and sent lots of pics of his stay. I highly recommend. We will definitely use them again!”
“Victoria was great! She sent me updates, was very kind and easy to communicate with. My dog needed some social time and to see how she did on an overnight visit with other dogs. She said my dog was good, played well with the other dogs and she would watch her again. That’s a huge relief because not everyone will watch Belgian Malinios’, so I was grateful. I would highly recommend Victoria and will be returning in the future. Thank you Victoria for taking such good care of Sasha.”
“Whitney was great with our two big dogs, including our old guy who doesn’t hear or see well. She was super easy to work with and communicated easily. We would definitely board with her again!”
“Tammy is very professional and obviously loves dogs. She took great care of our two pups and they seemed to enjoy their vacation with her and her other canine guests. Tammy sent great photos and an update from their overnight visit. I will definitely be booking with Tammy again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newcastle
It was our first time boarding with Cody, we have one dog that's a little bit hyper and one that is pretty chill he did an amazing job of sending me updates and pictures of them, which not a lot of sitters do nowadays. I was so thrilled to see all the pictures of them looking so happy! I would give him a 10/5 if I could! I felt like buddy and lightning were very well cared for while we were gone. When we picked them up they were all tuckered out they spent a day napping on the couch. I will definitely recommend him to any friends and family and I will also be using Cody again in the future!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Newcastle can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Newcastle home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Newcastle.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newcastle. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
You and your Newcastle sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
