I had to leave town on very short notice due to a death in the family. Heather was amazing! She responded very quickly and came picked up the key the very next morning. She took very good care of my cat while I was gone. I highly recommend her!

About: I have about 10 years of experience of pet care, as well as 15+ years of farm sitting. I own two cats of my own and also have experience administering prescription foods. Pet care is a life style. Through my own experience owning pets, I know the effort and commitment it takes. House sitting will be limited to specific availability depending on my own commitments. For my offered services, my goal is to not disrupt the already established flow. I plan to learn and adapt to the care and safety guidelines of each house.

About: I’ve had a dog of my own and regularly help care for my neighbors’ dogs as well, giving me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to older senior dogs. I’m a college student with an internship, which usually leaves me fully free on Sundays and Mondays (though this can vary week to week). On workdays, I’m available early mornings and in the evenings into the night. I prioritize safety, trust, and respect in every home I visit. I follow any instructions closely, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and make sure your home is treated with care. I’m also open to dog sitting in my own home depending on the pet’s needs and compatibility.

Vanessa took great care of our cat for 4 days of drop in visits. She was reliable, flexible and even threw a few flakes out for our fish. The pictures she sent each day made it apparent that our cat was in good hands and behaving in her normal pattern. Vanessa also took great care in managing the security of our house. Thank you Vanessa!

First time leaving my senior dog alone for a week. We decided to try a sitter on Rover, and we are happy with our dog and with the care that Jessie V. put into caring for Sammi, and for the house. At 15 years old, Sammi has messes, and I am grateful for Jessie's care in caring for Sammi, and for the condition of the carpet and floors. When we saw Sammi after being away for a week, he seemed happy, well-fed, and the room smelled clean. Thanks, Jessie!

Entrusting someone to care for our pets takes a lot of courage and trust, especially if your pet has a particular set of needs and structure. After reading through A LOT of sitter profiles, Marcea stood out the most to us as someone we felt could be a good fit. Our 9yrs old bloodhound had a rough start in life, and came to me at 2yrs old as an anxious, leash-aggressive, separation anxiety, osteo-arthritic, quirky dog. Through behavioral training and medication management, his life is more calm and stable, but he requires structure, routine, and calm patient love and understanding. After a combining households move that put our dog hanging at home alone 3 days a week, I knew we needed to hire someone for drop-in visits. Enter Marcea. Our slow-to-trust anxious boy took to Marcea instantly! She is so kind and calm and loving with him, he looks so much happier after work on scheduled drop-ins. And when the trash can got left in the kitchen and our dog, true to his bloodhound nature, needed to investigate and eat the fine trash can delicacies, Marcea instantly sprung into action. She contacted us immediately out of concern for our pup and his safety, and luckily there wasn’t anything in the garbage that was life threatening, but what a relief she was there (and she cleaned up the mess without any complaint or chastising). If you, like me, have a pup with quirks and anxiety and leaving them alone or with a new person makes you nervous and alters your lifestyle, do yourself a favor and hire Marcea. She is a calming balm for both pets and pet parents.

Scarlett did an amazing job taking care of our old lady Jelly. She followed directions thoroughly, gave her medicine on time and made sure Jelly didn't get lonely while we were gone. She's super nice, communicative and pays attention to the animal's needs. I highly recommend Scarlett (Wanqing) for your pets needs when you need to be away. Will definitely use her again for any upcoming trips!

Hayley was an excellent sitter for my cat! I’m always nervous when I’m away, but Hayley’s communication and photo updates really put my anxiety at ease. She was punctual, clean, and did a great job administering my cat’s medicine. She used the remaining appointment time to play with my cat, so she was nice and tuckered out by the time I got home. I would 100% recommend her services!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Newcastle

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Newcastle on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 12,971 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Newcastle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newcastle. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
