About: I have grown up around pets of all sizes and species. Knowledgeable in body language, basic needs for breeds and species. We have 4 dogs of our own that have been with us for 10+ years. We rescue and foster animals whenever they need us and we love doing it. ❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide consistent care and attention. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays, with daytime availability depending on the week. I prioritize keeping a reliable routine for feeding, walks, and playtime so pets feel comfortable and settled while in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm environment and follow any routines or instructions you provide closely. I’m attentive to behavior, feeding schedules, and energy levels, and I always supervise interactions. If needed, I can separate or crate pets to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free.
About: I have always had pets growing up. Animals are such sweet souls that can be so misunderstood. Let me love, and take care of your pet, while promising safety and health! I am currently staying at home with my two-year-old daughter while my son is in pre-K during the day! This is the perfect way for me to make some extra money while being able to still be a mom. I do not have any pets in my home so safety is my number one priority. I have a fenced backyard and am ready to play with your fur baby!

“My family and I were going to Universal Studios for 2 days…tickets bought, pet sitter confirmed. Then Mother Nature dropped a winter storm and our pet sitter was stuck in Texas. GABRIEL CAME THROUGH in the clutch! Not only did he agree to watch my baby, Simba, literally the next 2 days, but he was sooo accommodating! Gabriel sent pictures throughout both days…walks ✔️ naps ✔️ snuggling ✔️ Simba came home happy & tired both days! I can’t thank Gabriel enough for the last minute assist and for taking such good care of Simba! ??”
“Austin was again amazing as always! If you need a sitter I definitely recommend him! He’s very nice and communicative and so good with Hades! Hades loves going over there! And he loves Austin! I never have to worry when Hades is with Austin! He takes such good care of Hades!”

About: I specialize in accepting single boardings at my home as well as short and long stays in your home. I stay day and night thru out. I’m a full-time professional sitter, and when I commit to your pets and your home, I’m all in. I don’t just swing by to scoop food and dash — I stay overnight, follow your routines, and make sure your pets feel calm, safe, and genuinely cared for the entire time you’re away. They get love, attention, and consistency — and you get real peace of mind. This isn’t a gig to me. It’s what I do. And I do it with heart. I have plenty of experience with large breeds — the kind that some sitters might shy away from. I don’t breed discriminate, and I know that “big” doesn’t mean “bad.” In fact, some of my most loyal cuddle buddies have outweighed me! I absolutely adore the pitties, rotties, and other gentle giants — they’ve got big heads, big hearts, and a soft spot in mine. That said, I do prioritize safety — for everyone involved. I’m confident, calm, and respectful in my approach, and I appreciate open, honest communication about your pet’s temperament, routines, and needs. I know it’s a big deal to trust someone with your fur babies and your home. I take that trust seriously. I treat your space with care, keep things clean and secure, and most importantly, Your pets will feel seen, safe, and loved. Whether your dog needs someone to curl up with at night or your cat needs their routine followed to the letter, I’m here for it. I’ll meet them where they are — playful, shy, anxious, spoiled, senior, or sassy. My goal is simple: when you walk back through that door, your pets are relaxed, happy, and barely noticed you left. I dedicate my entire schedule to caring for animals, which means your pet gets my full attention, flexibility, and consistent care. Being in their familiar space dramatically reduces the stress and trauma that new surroundings can trigger. I look at it like their very own staycation! My goal is to keep your pets in their normal routine while focusing on safe, stimulating and loving care. All the while providing you with peace of mind. I take great pride in my integrity — it’s non-negotiable. Doing the right thing, even when no one’s watching, isn’t just a value; it’s how I operate every day. You, your babies, and your home deserve nothing less than my full commitment and care.
“Genella was great with our dog Mica! She was incredibly kind and pleasant to speak with. We are so thankful to her for being able to welcome our girl into her home for the time needed! I highly recommend her. We will book again!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life, large and small. Having no children, my dogs are my kids. Dogs are as smart as you teach them to be... I've taught all of my fur babies tricks and commands, friends and family are always impressed. I've just always had a knack with them. Dogs bring me so much joy and I have plenty of experience with puppies to elderly ones. I'm self employed and my workload varies daily. I'm looking to fill in some extra time on my hands by providing in house visits to let your dogs out, feed, and give some loves to them while you're busy at work or on vacation. In time, I may offer overnight boarding once I get to know your pets. For now, I just offer doggie daycare on days when I'm home all day, for only one family at a time with one or two dogs max. So you don't have to worry about your babies being around 10's of other dogs. I have two older mild mannered doggies about 45 and 60 ish pounds that are friendly with others. We have a very large fenced in backyard they enjoy running and playing in when the weather is nice. Our house is cozy with lots of doggie beds. I can follow your directions as to what is needed for your furry babies so that they get fabulous care and love. I look forward to meeting you all and building a trustworthy relationship.💕🐾
“Karmen is amazing. She does a great job with Snoop and being at her house while I am at work is amazing for him. He learns to socialize with a variety of dogs and with her kids. It’s like taking your kid to recess! I love it”
“We had another great experience with Julie! My dog, Rosie, loves her so much that she was pulling me out of the car to run inside. Julie sent photo and video updates throughout the day, and was really great at communicating. She was also super accommodating with what time I could drop off and pick up, because I didn’t know exactly what time I would be there. Will definitely book again!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Newcastle commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 OK 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.
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 435 sitters in Newcastle, 91% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
