“What a great family to leave our dog with! He was instantly part of their family. So comfortable in their cozy home. Lots of walks and multiple photos each day. We will use them again and would recommend this family.”
“Heather is amazing. Responds very fast and sends updates daily. Couldn’t have felt more comfortable with her watching my special needs dog. Will definitely book again.”
“Thank you again for another great stay, Lena! Mochi and Lyla have become so comfortable with you -- it gives me and my family so much peace of mind to leave them in your care. Lyla LOVES the daily walks and all of the new canine friends she is making. I especially appreciate how dedicated you are to making sure my senior girl Mochi eats during her stay and gets all of her medications. My family and LOVE the daily photos and are grateful you are so communicative whenever we have questions. Thank you for being the best dog sitter!”
“Quinten was great with our dog! She is a puppy with LOTS of energy and he was able to manager all her crazy. She was so sad to leave. He provided pictures and videos of her daily and was super receptive to anything I had to say or questions I had. Will definitely book again! Thanks again Quinten”
“Shon and his family are the BEST! This is the first time we had left our 11 month old puppy for an extended stay. Shon kept us informed on Howey's activities and eating! He also sent photos and videos. Shon walked Howey and has an adorable Yorkie that Howey loved to play with. Ideal setting with a large fenced yard and doggie door for coming and going. My husband and I highly recommend Shon.”
“Wanqing and her husband were excellent with my pup! I am visiting from out of the area and she accepted my last minute booking as I was planning a hiking trip to Mt. Rainier (where most of the hikes are not dog friendly). She was attentive to my dog and took him on several walks and even to the dog park. She communicated well throughout the stay and sent pictures and videos! Kado left happy and tired! Will definitely rebook if I am in the area again.”
“Kaylie is our go-to sitter! Rigby always has a great time with her pups and we’re always getting pics/videos of Kaylie playing fetch with her, which is her favorite activity.”
“First time using Elan M./Rover service and we would highly recommend Elan M. to look after our dog next time we are in need of a sitter. Elan's daily photo updates kept us informed and relieved us of his security and care. Thank you Elan for looking after our loved one so well. Appreciate it!”
“Lisa was a fantastic Rover host for our two dogs. She communicated frequently with us, was proactive in asking clarifying questions about our instructions, and clearly loves dogs. We could tell that our dogs had a great time as well! This was our first time using Rover and Lisa made everything so easy! We will book with her again!”
“Xiangyu and Qi took such great care of Natto during her first boarding! I was a little worried but she had no separation anxiety at all. They sent pictures and videos every day, giving me so much peace of mind when I was traveling. Natto also got along really well with Charlie and had a wonderful time together. I’m so grateful for their care and would absolutely book with them again! Highly recommend 😊”
“Deepika and her family are absolutely incredible! This was our first time using her, and we would rebook again anytime without hesitation. She truly loves dogs, and it shows in the exceptional care she provides. Her house and yard are so spacious, giving the dogs plenty of room to run and play safely. I received frequent updates with tons of photos and videos, which gave me complete peace of mind. She is incredibly patient, kind, and showered my dog with so much love. I cannot recommend this lovely sitter enough!”
“It was really great leaving our standard poodle, Renly, with Quang for the weekend! Renly had a great time with the dogs that Quang was boarding, Quang sent a ton of photos and videos of Renly playing and lounging around with them, and it really seemed they had a great time caring for him which was really reassuring for us. Upon returning home, Renly seems VERY calm and relaxed like he had a lot of interactions there and was well taken care of during his stay. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Thank you so much Quang for taking care of Renly!”
“Great stay with Cheryl, Rico, and Ken. Our dog was well cared for and the family provided multiple pictures a day. Very happy with their communication and appeared to make our dog feel at home.”
“Lisa was amazing. It was my first time leaving Henry (16-month-old mini bernedoodle) with someone I didn't know well. She took him on multiple daily adventures outside, sent tons of photos, communication was excellent, and he was a very happy and tired pup when I got back. I highly recommend Lisa and will be using her again in the future!”
“McKenna continues to be an amazing dog sitter! Our Penny just loves visiting her and her dogs, and we always feel confident that she will be well cared for. We’re so thankful to have McKenna close by!”
“Salena was a fantastic dog sitter. She sent daily pictures and updates, communicated any concerns, and made sure we always knew how our dog was doing. She asked thoughtful questions beforehand to ensure our dog was comfortable and well cared for. We felt completely confident leaving our dog with her and would gladly book with her again!”
“This is my second go around with Leslie she’s kind and prompt and you can tell she really loved what’s she’s doing. The care she has shown my animal has been a contributing factor on me writing this review as well as trusting her deeply with my baby. My lala loves going over there and her space is clean and open and wants you to feel the most comfortable always. I’m a forever customer ♥️”
“Our doodle Teddy loved staying with Sheila, her doodle Teddy, and her family. We enjoyed the photos she sent to us. They went on lots of walks. We will definitely use her again.”

We are so lucky to have met Deepika through Rover. We have travelled the distance for a compatible sitter so having her close to home is a bonus! Deepika is very communicative and provided us daily updates and photos/ videos.it made our trip away from Teddy a peaceful one. Definitely my go-to sitter for Teddy!!
Thank you, Ani and Pallavi, for taking such wonderful care of our Harry! The photos, videos, and updates were so helpful and reassuring—it was clear that he was loved and well taken care of. We really appreciated your continued communication and the convenience of your location. Thank you again for taking such great care of him!
Quinten was excellent with our dachshund, Sammy. Sammy is a special needs, senior dog who has really never known anyone but us as his company. Quinten made us feel he can handle Sammy’s special needs & we felt comfortable knowing he has extensive knowledge & history of caring for dachshunds with their quirks. He was very good at communicating with notes & pictures & videos. For the 3 nights we were away at a wedding, we didn’t have to worry about our fur baby. It never felt like a bother to ask how Sammy was doing. In fact Quinten usually contacted us to make us feel better before we had to ask. He was great about asking the right questions as well. Thank you, Quinten! We feel Sammy will be well-taken should we have to need boarding or day-care needs ever again. ❤️👍🏽
Iksu was great and very kind- puppies can be a handful and mine was a little nervous. but ikshu and partner seemed to handle everything in stride. Thank you for patience and kindness and meeting us beforehand to make sure good fit- also for daily update and pics are always appreciated. Thank you!
Thank you! This was my first time boarding Mesa and we both had a great experience. For me, the communications leading up to the drop off was super reassuring. While I was there, Mesa settled in and seemed right at home. During my travel there were updates and pictures letting me know Mesa was happy and well cared for. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. When I came to the door to pick him up, I could tell Mesa had also made a new bond.
Koda stayed with Michael and Sam for 2 weeks and had a great time! They did a great job with his meds and kept him comfortable with his arthritis/made sure he didn’t do too many stairs. I got regular updates and I know Koda got tons of pets and attention. 5 stars as always! Thanks so much!
Kristen (and her family!) were awesome with Bailey. He's a four month old puppy who doesn't have the best manners yet and Kristen was so positive about him and even happily helped work on teaching him to walk down stairs (something he's been scared to try at home). She sent great daily updates each morning and was very responsive. My kids helped me drop Bailey off and they commented as we left that they were sure he would have a really great time at her house - which speaks to how welcoming she was and how much she clearly loves dogs. We're looking forward to using her again for a future trip.
Akiko was awesome! She was so responsive from start to finish— from my inquiries before booking thru pickup. She was so good at giving updates, answering questions and sending photo updates. Having her own dog in the house helped because my dog had a playmate and friend. Will definitely book Akiko again!
Kirsten is definitely a star dog sitter. She was extremely communicative in giving updates about my dog during the sitting. She was extra considerate to address his needs, being a senior dog including medication and bladder needs. The kids were very sweet on him. Would absolutely book again without a doubt.
Zeus was so excited to go back to Andrew’s! As always, he had a great time, which was obvious from all the photos and videos we received. It’s always such a stress free, easy experience for all of us. We know Zeus is in great hands, and we couldn’t ask for a better sitter!
Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! I am always a bit nervous leaving my pup with new folks. This is the first time Rebecca watched Misiu. Upon meeting her I knew she was the right person and would provide the care, attention, awareness and comfort to my dog. She is very communicative, responsible and caring. She took care of him very well. I received pictures multiple times a day, she made sure to update me on how he did after eating, going on a walk, and how his day was. I felt so at peace knowing that my dog is with her. She is my number #1 dog sitter for sure! 💕
This was our first time boarding Bentley away from home. Candace helped us get him acclimated to her place with a meet and greet and playdate with her dogs before we dropped him off for the weekend. She kept in touch with us about how he was settling in, and made sure he got the attention he needed to feel comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newcastle on Rover is $46.01 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,865 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newcastle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
91% of Newcastle sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Newcastle landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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 WA 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.
