“Really good with my elderly cat who’s afraid of the whole world. Took the time to come and meet her before we left for a week, and took the time to find her every day to send a picture. Even when I asked if she could water my flowers she did! Totally recommend”
About: I have lots of experience around all kinds and sizes of pets! I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses and have pet sit for families with multiple pets in the home. I worked at a wildlife rehabilitation center for multiple years so I have experience giving meds and caring for animals with special needs or health problems. I’d love the opportunity to set up a time to chat and see if I’d be a good fit for you and your pet(s)! I’m finishing up my last class at OU so I have a very flexible schedule and could be present for most of the day. I’m comfortable doing whatever is needed to keep your fur baby happy and healthy. I have experience taking multiple dogs on a walk, feeding on a schedule, letting them out, I can do it all!
“BrieAnn was amazing. She was super communicative and followed directions to a t. She also sent great pictures letting me know how things were going. Nothing better than the reassurance that your pup is being well taken care of and is having a blast playing. Coming home to a happy pup who was taken care of the way you would have done it is invaluable. Def recommend using BrieAnn”
“She was great with my 2 dogs and went above and beyond for me. I did have to modify my days on her due to event being so close to home I could do drop in myself. Great to work with and so glad I picked her by the end of the week.”
About: I have been around various kinds of dogs throughout my life. We always had dogs growing up in our house. I think dogs are special- they are a ray of sunshine in our lives. I am working full time for Christian Community School in the first half of the day, so I have lots of time to help out with your fur baby! I am available all weekend and anytime after 2pm. I would make sure to give them lots of attention! I will protect them with the best of my ability. I will take them on long walks, keep them company and make sure they are hydrated and well fed.
About: Hi! My name is Alaina and I work part time at a dog daycare, so I’m around all kinds of dogs every day—big, small, shy, energetic, you name it. I’m also certified in dog behavior and first aid through my workplace, a nationally recognized dog daycare and boarding company. I have a lot of hands-on experience with different temperaments, and I’m especially comfortable working with nervous or reactive dogs though my favorite are working breeds! I focus on reading body language, keeping things low-stress, and helping each dog feel safe and understood. I truly love being around animals, and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own 💗 Currently, I work 6:45 am to 12:30 pm every weekday and 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on Thursdays at a dog daycare located in Edmond so rest assured, whether your pup sleeps in or wakes up at the crack of dawn, I am able to accommodate! :) I take time to learn each pet’s routine, body language, triggers, and comfort level so they feel secure and stress-free. I closely supervise pets, keep doors/gates secure, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and maintain a clean environment. I’m also comfortable handling nervous, reactive, high-energy, or senior dogs and always use positive reinforcement and patience to build trust. In clients’ homes, I respect their space and follow all care instructions exactly as requested while providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind.
“First time using Rover and experience was absolutely amazing. She communicated well and could tell she really cared for my pups well being and happiness. 10/10 will use again.”
About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog feels the most comfortable, loved, and most importantly safe in the short time I have them. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm an out of state college student who has three larger dog breeds at home that I miss so much. And I’ve grown up around dogs all my life so making pups as happy as I can and taking care of them just come second nature for me! Although I've been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far-reaching than that. I recently have over 2 years of volunteering experience at a no-kill animal shelter called “City of Norman Animal Welfare” and I’m hoping to take my lived experience and activism with animals into a summer job. I've worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally. I've also been trained in Pet First Aid and am experienced administering medication. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup, their needs, and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs!! like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having together <3 Note: Might do cats in the future, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve grown allergic so Benadryl is a must. I am currently working an internship at a museum with very flexable hours for the summer giving me lots of time to play and walk your pups! With the internship I just need to work 12 hours a week but can come and go from the museum as I like and can take an hour off for lunch, work only 2 days a week, only work early mornings, it is truely amazing having such an independent schedule, which is why I thought dog sitting & walking would be a great idea. Would love to do boarding/doggy daycare, like I said in my bio, I miss my dogs at home so much so giving some weekend love to yours won’t be a problem. But I do live in an apartment and having any animal for longer than a week without having them registered with the building would be against my lease, so I cannot do super long sleepovers :( My entire apartment complex is fenced in but because theres other people they would be on a leash, but theres PLENTY of grass to go potty and frolic. We also have a large yard in the center of the apartment complex where they can run and stretch their legs off leash. While all dogs are outside on or off leash they will NEVER leave my sight regardless of have a history of running away or not. Love playing fetch with dogs and rewarding good behavoir with lots of treats. (Dietary concerns considered) I drive a toyota highlander SUV with plenty of space for transporting your pups and making sure they’re secure and totally safe. Just like watching your dogs transporting them should be done with the utmost care and I have a squeaky clean drivng record. I currently do not have a crate at my apartment, but dogs generally feel most comfortable in their own bedding especially in a new unfamilar environment, if you’d allow me to bring it from your home and return it with your pet. There’s plenty of space in the apartment, but I’d only sit about three large dogs at a time to allow plenty of playtime space or incase they get the zoomies. Dog beds or crates can be in the livingroom or my bedroom wherever your pet is most comfortable sleeping. I am also comfortable washing dogs after having multiple sessions with them to gauge temperment. A lot of dogs get anxious with baths and I am more then comfortable handling that and have multiple times in the past, but I do not need to put myself in harms way dealing with aggressive untrained dogs. Nonetheless I understand that for a lot of middle aged dog parents bathing dogs is tedious and can hurt your back, so I am happy to provide a clean pup for an additional tip! (Skin concerns considered with products used)
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!
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my personalized approach to each dog's needs. I have experience caring for all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs requiring extra attention. I'm also skilled in basic obedience training, so I can help reinforce positive behaviors. Additionally, I’m patient with dogs who may have anxiety or special needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you're away. Your pet's happiness and well-being are always my top priority! ***NO unneutered males under any circumstances*** I work from home so I am able to be available at all times for your pet. I am always here to give them extra loves and maybe an extra cookie. (Treat :) I have a large yard and a dog who love making new friends! I do have a fenced area and area where they can roam off leash
“Shelby is great! This is our second time we have had her come and do a drop in visit. She is always friendly, communicative and follows all of our request's! Our dog loves her and always looks forward to seeing her!”
“Emma helped us out of a very tight spot! We had a very last minute day trip and she was able to take care of our pup. She was very communicative and I will be using her in the future!”
“Katie is honestly such an angel. The love she has for our cats makes me feel so comfortable having her over and making sure they’re okay. If you’re looking for a safe, loving, and dedicated pet sitter, Katie is the one!!! The communication and the pictures during every visit is just such a relief.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Newcastle is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newcastle
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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Newcastle stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 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.
