“Laurie went above and beyond while taking care of my dog!!!! She did everything to keep Sky safe and cared for. I received lots of pictures and updates on sky's day! Would definately recommend her and hire her again!!!”
About: I was at a daycare place for 2 years then decided to start my career as a veterinary assistant! I’m happy to watch your furry family while you’re away 💕 I’m available all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, including overnight stays. During the week, I’m available for overnight stays as well as visits before and after work. If you’re located near my workplace, I can also stop by during my lunch break, with the possibility of making up to 3–5 visits per day if needed. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and create a schedule that best fits their needs. I have experience working with both cats and dogs and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s individual personality. I’m especially patient with cats and take the time to let them become comfortable and build trust at their own pace. I also love being active with dogs and enjoy taking them on walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention\. I’m comfortable administering medications when needed and always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well being of the pets in my care.
“This was the first time we left our 5 year old doodle for a week with anyone other than family so we were a little apprehensive. Sandy took such good care of her, sending pictures and updates everyday. Her home is doggie heaven! Toys, treats and a lovely fenced in yard. Sandy is amazing and Maisy’s newest best friend!❤️ We highly recommend her!”
“Veronica was amazing with my pups, the house was just as I left it and Tessa and Tucker were clearly loved and well cared for. Veronica also offered detailed regular updates so I never had to worry while I was away. I'll definitely be booking with Veronica again soon!”
“From the moment we met Michela and saw her interact with our labs and kitty we knew she would take great care of our pets. She surpassed our expectations. We received daily updates and photos. It was a delight to have Michela help us. We look forward to possibly having her stay again.”
“Heather house sat for us for 4 days and did a fantastic job. Our 2 German Shepherds were well cared for and she somehow managed to find all of our favorite local trails without any hints from me. She seemed to have a good read on my dogs! Our house was well cared for during her stay. She even took out the trash/recycling bins to the street before I thought to ask her. I would certainly recommend her to any future clients.”
About: If you’re looking for someone who’s a reliable, caring, and loving pet sitter, then I’m your girl! I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for 7 years. On top of that, I have five years of experience working at a dog daycare, so plenty of hands on experience with multiple dogs. I do not specialize in training but I’m open to doing a meet and greet and seeing if it’s the right fit. I have flexibility Thursday evenings between 6pm-11pm to Sunday afternoons between 8am- 1pm so I can do drop ins or dog walking visits between those times if needed. When I’m pet sitting at my client’s house I will normally take their dogs for walks 3 times a day and I will feed them breakfast, lunch if needed, and dinner and make sure they have plenty of water.
“Peach took wonderful care of our fur babies for over a week. Peach was dedicated and attentive to the pups and in addition to giving the pups lots of love and attention she took great care of the house as well. Peach is a great communicator and sweet to work with, highly recommend!”
“Tati was great! She was communicative, responsive, and attentive. My dog seemed very happy and healthy upon my return, and my house was as clean as when I left it. I would definately trust her to watch him again.”
“Alexandra took great care of our dogs! They were happy when we returned home and not a bit stressed by our absence. She was communicative while we were away to let us know how they were doing. She also was not intimidated by our large dog.”
About: Hi there — I’m a dedicated, experienced pet sitter with 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to our pets—every dog has their own routines, quirks, comfort levels, and needs, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes your pup feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful, shy and cautious, older and in need of a slower pace, or has specific behavioral or medical needs, communication is everything. Please share any concerns, routines, triggers, fears, or special requests ahead of time—we’ll work together to make their stay as stress-free and personalized as possible. My home offers a large yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of love, structure, and attention. I’m also a mom to two amazing kids (ages 5 and 7) who have been raised around animals and are very respectful of pet boundaries, body language, and personal space. For overnight stays, I do recommend bringing your dog’s crate if they’re crate-trained or may need a familiar, secure space for bedtime or decompression. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for—while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I can do overnights Wednesday Thursday and Fridays! Just reach out to me, schedule updated weekly for other services - overnights stay the same. Thanks! Your pet - your rules! I can play, snuggle, walk, feed, bathe your pet. I can crate your pet if requested. What you say goes!
“We highly recommend Patrick. He was absolutely wonderful with our dog Gilligan. We utilized the overnight pet sitting service in our home. Patrick was very accommodating and to better get to know us, he offered to visit our home twice prior to our trip. One of these visits he took Gilligan for a walk, while I just tagged along. He handled Gilligan beautifully, cleaned up after him, let him stop and sniff, but then encouraged him along. He stopped and talked with a neighbor, while their dog and Gilligan said hello. Patrick was a natural. It was obvious he loved dogs and took his job very seriously. Patrick provided us with references without us asking. We called all of them and heard nothing but very positive comments. Patrick also offered to talk with our previous sitter (who was moving away) to gain even more knowledge of Gilligan and how to best care for him. I was doing all I could to find the best caregiver for Gilligan, and Patrick made it easy. It was all pretty impressive. Although we were gone for only one night, Patrick kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout the day, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using Patrick again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newfields
OUTSTANDING! Kate was incredibly kind, communicative, and professional! She stayed two nights at our home and took the best care of our three pets. Every photo she sent us showed them playing, happy, and in their routines. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I am a natural worry-wart and I felt nothing but confidence in Kate's abilities, as well as her compassion for our boys. We will definitely be booking with her again! THANK YOU KATE!
Lillian was wonderful with our dogs! She was very communicative throughout our trip and sent us lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. She took Max for a walk every day and made sure he got his medication both morning and night. Max usually has some separation anxiety when we’re away and tends to sulk outside, so we were especially happy to see that he seemed content, comfortable, and happy the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Lillian and would happily have her watch them again!
From the moment we met Michela and saw her interact with our labs and kitty we knew she would take great care of our pets. She surpassed our expectations. We received daily updates and photos. It was a delight to have Michela help us. We look forward to possibly having her stay again.
Brittany does an excellent job for my two kitties. I have used her service for the third time now, from a few to ca. 10 days of being away. She communicates daily as requested and is always responsive when approached, which for me is a crucial part of this arrangement. House and cats are just as I left when I come back. Can definitely recommend!
11:29 AM Kassidy had a wonderful way with my older dog, Sunny. She was very good at reading his moods and found creative solutions for feeding and walking him whenever he wasn't feeling up to his usual routine. She reached out to me with any questions and sent photos which was very reassuring. Sunny seemed to be comfortable with Kassidy right away and enjoyed snuggling up with her. I would definitely call on Kassidy again!
Gracie was able to help out last minute with our dog who requires a lot of eye drops. She came multiple times a day and was patient and gave our dog (and cats!) the care they needed. She responds quickly and sends lots of updates which we really appreciate! We will be having her back!

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 Newfields 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 Newfields 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Newfields 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!

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
