“Michael did great with my senior lab & three kitties. He updated us throughout the entirety of the trip, and took so much stress off of our shoulders. He definitely is one of the best sitters i’ve used. 😊🙌🏻🙌🏻”
“Natalie did a wonderful job caring for our three dogs. They were happy to see her when she arrived on time, and they enjoyed their time together. Natalie kept us updated with photos and videos, so we could see how well the dogs were being cared for. We’ll definitely have her watch our dogs again.”
“Tamakia was absolutely an amazing sitter for our fur babies! She kept us up to date with everything and sent us pictures/videos and went above an beyond what she needed to do. We did not have to worry about them not even one time. We definitely will be getting her again to watch them!!!”
“Autumn did fantastic staying in my home with my dog and cat! She was on time, checked in with me, sent lots of pics, and was very responsive the entire time. I felt comfortable with her taking care of my house and pets. My cat got her medication as needed and my dog got plenty of walks and attention. I booked her again shortly after the first stay. Highly recommend Autumn to take care of your babies!”
About: I have 8 years of experience with walking, pet sitting, feeding, giving medication and bathing pets. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. I work a casual job with short shifts and long breaks in between, so I am almost always available for walks and check-ins on pets. I always find it most important to keep pets away from hazards both indoors and outdoors. Anything toxic, sharp, etc. is always kept out of reach. Pets will be kept on a leash when outside in a non-fenced area.
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve also had the privilege of working at a doggy daycare/boarding business for several summers, where I absolutely loved caring for clients’ pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. If you have concerns about a senior dog, don’t worry—I’m very comfortable following specific schedules, administering routines, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether your dog needs lots of playtime or a calm, gentle companion, I’m happy to provide a safe and comfortable experience while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!!! I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m typically available Monday through Friday at any time, and I can accommodate a variety of routines and needs. While I prefer weekdays, I may be able to help on weekends with advance notice I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In your home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walk routines, or any specific care your pet needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I keep a clean and secure environment, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are always properly handled. During walks, I stay alert and avoid unsafe situations to keep your pet protected.
“Heather was amazing with my two furry babies. They settled right in and took to her right away. When I got home I could tell not only were they taken care of but my home was as well. She sent multiple pictures at the start of every day with an update on the day previously. My dogs were very happy and comfortable as was I. I am always a nervous wreck leaving my babies but Heather made me feel comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Heather in the future again. Thank you for everything Heather and for treating my dogs like your own. Ollie and Olive miss you already & are looking forward to their next stay with you.”
About: I have had dogs in my household since I was a baby. I moved to pittsburgh in 2021, and before that was living with my parents who had four dogs! Right now, I have 3 cats. I love to dogsit and spend time with other people's babies! I have experience in dog sitting, and have spent some time working in dog daycare/boarding. I am currently not working a typical job so I am available 7 days a week most weeks and can spend all of my time with your pet if needed! I am dedicated to keeping your pets safe and happy by keeping a close eye on them and making sure that they are loved and cared for.
“Cole was punctual, communicative and responsive. The animals looked happy and well taken care of when we returned! Will be reaching out again next time we need someone to watch them!”
“Patrick did an outstanding job caring for our dog and home. He was attentive, responsible, and kept us well-informed with great communication throughout. Our dog was clearly well cared for, and we returned to a spotless house. We would not hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to others.”
“We are so grateful to have a dog sitter for addie we can count on that she has gotten to know! Makes it so much easier to relax when we go away, knowing Angel is with Addie! Thanks for the updates throughout the weekend! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!!”
“Kristin was wonderful. She took excellent care of Baxter. They took lots of walks. She went above and beyond. Everything was neat and clean when I got home. She's new to Rover and was perfect. I will definitely use her again.”
“Tyler did a great job watching my 110 pound German Shepherd. He gave lots of updates of their time and was respectful of my home. I would definitely recommend Tyler for future services.”
“EXCELLENT dog and house sitter! He watched my dogs for 3 nights and 4 days. Bryce took excellent care of my house and dogs. He was very communicative and gave excellent, precise information. He walked both dogs, gave medication and went above and beyond. Awesome sitter”
About: I've cared for dogs since I was young and have handled dogs both large and small. I've cared for cats since 2019, I am newer to them technically, but I love how different they can be. I run my own business, so making my own hours allows me a lot of wiggle room on doing check-ins or rearranging my day to allow for walks. My home is a temple to good vibes and my happy lil buddies (Sprout and Tansy) get along with everyone they've met so far.
“Jacen did a fantastic job!!! We booked for 6 separate nights for stay overs at our house and everything went smoothly. Jacen is flexible and even watered our plants and took down some trash while we were gone. The cats were well taken care of and the communication was excellent. Highly recommend Jacen!”
“Kathryn did such a wonderful job house sitting with our dog and cats! She actively communicated throughout the time we were away, and her regular updates and pics let us know the pets were getting great care. Her attention to detail and ability to problem solve were very much appreciated as well. Kathryn expertly handled giving meds, and she let us know whenever anything seemed off. Most of all, the pets adore her! When we arrived home, the house looked great and the pets were as happy as ever. Overall, Kathryn is a total pro, and we will defintely rebook for future pet needs!”
“Autumn was amazing! She sat our older dog in our home, and while we have a fenced in yard she took her for daily walks and our dogs level of mobility improved as a result. She went above and beyond the necessary and we will use her again in a heartbeat”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Newfield is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newfield
I cannot say enough about Holly! It was our first time leaving our two cats and Holly allowed us to enjoy our time away. She was dependable, caring, communicated well, sent pictures, and followed all of our requests. Bruce and Wayne were happy cats when we returned. Highly recommend!
Sandra was an absolute angel and took incredible care of our entire team of animals! She was so loving, attentive, and caring, and her communication was wonderful throughout our time away. We felt completely at ease knowing our beloved animals were in such good hands. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets! 🤍
Aubra was great with my fur babies and made the whole experience really easy and stress free. She kept me updated with messages and photos, asked thoughtful questions when needed, and was very communicative throughout the stay. My dog can take a little time to warm up, and she was really patient with her, which I appreciated. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely book Aubra again.
George took great care of our two dogs while we were out of town for the week of Christmas. He stayed at our house, sent frequent updates, and was super friendly, and it was clear the dogs really liked him and were well cared for the whole time. We had zero issues and would absolutely use George again.
Philip and Stephanie did a fantastic job taking care of Trixie and Thorne for me. It was so wonderful knowing my pets were in good hands while I was attending a celebration of life event for the loss of my girlfriend. Philip even took the cardboard boxes I had that needed to go to recycling for me. Great people for sure.
Brandon was excellent with our miniature dachshund, Clif. He had third degree burns recently and required a little extra care, and Brandon went above and beyond to make sure Clif bad his meds, got a walk in, and even put him in a clean suitical. I can't say enough kind things about how great he is. Thanks, Brandon!

FAQs for House Sitting - Newfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Newfield on Rover is $38.85 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 House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,413 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Newfield walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Newfield maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newfield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 91% 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.
