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 daughter while my son is in school 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!
“Anthony was SO good to our dog!! I can always tell when someone took care of my dog well because when we get home he’s calm instead of anxious. Anthony made extra time to meet my dog and learn about his routine before his visits, updated us consistently with pictures and videos, checked in to make sure he followed our instructions, and even did an extra visit just to make sure our dog had enough potty breaks. He also went out of his way to help me learn how to use rover for the first time and showed integrity with how he charges. Would recommend and will definitely be calling him for help again!”
About: I grew up with animals my whole life. I got my first cat and dog as an adult when I was 21 years old. Since then I've always had animals, including a few rabbits along the way. In our household, I'm the one who feeds and bathes our dogs because I've been a stay-at-home mom for years. I've been through the senior years of pets so I understand the extra care they can require and I'm comfortable giving them medicine. I've also been through the puppy phase multiple times, and I've even been through multiple dog pregnancies with my current two doggy fur babies. I'm not currently working because I've been a stay-at-home mom for many years so I have plenty of time to take care of other pets. If I take a job in the future, it'll be remote so I can still have flexibility in my schedule. I'm comfortable crating a pet if that's what you want (I've had a couple of dogs that were destructive as young pups so they had to be crated in their younger years). I would also enjoy spending time outside in a fenced yard with your dogs.
About: I have got to hang out with dogs for years! The people I’ve sat for before have always said I am a reliable, loving sitter. I am currently working a part-time job, but it still leaves me with plenty of time during the week to see all of your animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine to make sure they’re comfortable. I make sure they are fed, have fresh water, get walks and playtime, and receive plenty of attention. I also always make sure to send updates so owners know their pet is safe and happy.

About: Hey pet parents!!! It’s Jaci your pets’ new best friend! I’ve always had a big heart for dogs and truly enjoy being around them. I’m a loving, patient, and dependable person who enjoys giving dogs plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I would make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I work as a full-time bartender but it’s very flexible so it gives me lots of free time to walk and sit dogs throughout most days. Then as clients become more regular it’ll be easier working them into a weekly routine. I used to have multiple dogs in the house that I would have to take care of, so I’m used to being in a group of large dogs and taking care of them all at once.
“Olivia did a great job watching our 3 cats while we were gone for a week. She gave very detailed updates and plenty of pictures. Our cats got lots of play time with Olivia and even a treat each day. She was very caring and attentive, letting us know when one of our cats had a hairball and when an animal was getting into our outdoor plants. We will definitely be booking with Olivia again next time we need someone to watch our cats!”

Keira did an outstanding job taking care of my two cats while I was away. My cats can be a little apprehensive with new people, but she gave each of them plenty of time to warm up at their own pace. She treated them with so much patience and care, and I could tell they felt comfortable around her. I really appreciated the photos and updates she sent throughout each visit. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the care she provided, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again the next time I’m out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Newcastle is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $23 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,330 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Newcastle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newcastle. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
