About: What sets me apart? Don't know really.. but I love to sing to your fur babies. As for senior dogs, I can administer any medications they are on. I enjoy massaging pets to sleep! Currently, I work part-time from home and can care for your pets daily, nightly or weekly if necessary with a couple of days of notice. I have a fenced yard and a large crate if your fur baby is crate-trained. Whether in my home or yours, your pet will have my undivided attention.
About: From a young age I loved being around animals, I started out helping my mom since she is a wildlife rehabilitation rescuer. I worked as a Veterinary Technician with small and large animal, and have been working as a receptionist in Veterinary Clinics for 7 years now. Animals bring a happiness to me that is indescribable and if you hire me as your pet sitter I promise that your fur babies will become a part of my family! I will treat them as my own, if you’d like to book please let me know. I like to do meet and greets before I do the job to meet your fur babies, you, and make sure that I have an understanding of the routine to best take care of them while your away! I am currently not working so I am doing pet sitting full time, I can pretty much do any date or time. Just let me know what works best for you. For pet sitting, I would do so in the comfort of your own home and where your pet feels the safest. I do not have a fenced in yard, so to make sure that the pet care is safe I feel it is best to provide it in your home.
About: Hello! I’m a long time pet lover and house sitter (of my own place) I have interacted with many pets of my friends and worked at animal shelters. My experience with pets starts in high school when I volunteered at the local animal shelter cleaning out kennels, grooming and playing with cats and dogs. I then graduated to being a pet auntie for my friends animals and then pet sitting for various clients. I love pets, they are adorable and I can’t wait until I can have my own! Until then, I guess I’ll just pet sit…. I work from home on most days, so my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to look after pets such as spending quality time, potty breaks, exercising via walks and playing with cat toys. When I care for pets in their home, I take care to read all of the instructions and look after the home. This can include administering medications, accommodating different diets and walking styles (such as the slow walkers, the sniffers, the neighborhood watchers). I make sure to leave the home the way I found it because that is what I would like if I was the pet parent.
About: I treat your home pets with care as I would like to be treated. Over 12 years of experience caregiving to both neighbors and friends I am currently working part time and have extra time to help out where I can. Any day of the week can work with me. You deserve safety and trusting environment and your pet deserves attention and care at any given time under all circumstances and different paths and lifestyles.
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and have been caring for animals my entire life. My family dog, Misty, is 14 years old, and I've cared for her since she was a puppy. Over the years, I trained her, took her on daily walks, fed her, and cared for her through every stage of her life. Caring for Misty for the past 14 years has given me firsthand experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. As Misty has gotten older, she was diagnosed with AIHA (Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia), which has required careful medication management, close monitoring, and a specialized diet. Through this experience, I've become comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care routines, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention.I truly understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves patience, love, and dependable care. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply someone to keep them company, I'll treat them with the same level of care and affection that I give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and in caring hands while you're away. I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I have a one-hour lunch break that allows me to return home for drop-in visits, walks, potty breaks, feeding, medication administration (if needed), and quality time with your pet. From Friday through Sunday, I have a much more flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide attentive care based on your pet's individual needs. Whether it's walks, playtime and mental stimulation, feeding, medication, or simply lots of love and companionship, I'll make sure your pet feels safe and well cared for. I am also available for boarding Friday through Sunday. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and boarding, and I tailor my care to each pet's routine and individual needs. During drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, gets potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. If needed, I can also administer medications and provide updates with photos so you have peace of mind. For house sitting, I strive to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible by caring for them in the comfort of their own home. I'll follow your instructions closely, provide companionship, walks, feeding, medication (if needed), and keep your home clean and secure while you're away. For boarding, your pet will stay in a safe, clean, and loving home where they'll receive lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and supervised care. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and at home. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated throughout their stay with photos and messages so you can feel confident they're in good hands.
“Valerie is a very responsible and loving pet sitter . My dog Thor is very particular on who he likes and he was drawn to her asap and even after her days of sitting - he would sit at door waiting on her . I would rebook Valerie anytime !”
“Jalynn is wonderful! It was our first time having her pet sit and it was a long assignment almost two weeks over the Christmas holidays. She was so flexible and helpful and the pets were happy and well cared for. We are already planning to have her for our next vacation!”

About: I have been around and owned a number of different animals all throughout my life. I have a very soft spot in my heart for dogs and kitties. I used to find stray dogs as a kid and do my best to find them a loving home. Pets make everything better! I am currently a student doing all my schoolwork online from the comfort of my home. I run a couple errands during the day but they don’t keep me away from home for long. I also have a 15 year old daughter who does homeschooling and also loves pets just as much as her mom. There’s usually always someone home to care for the animals. I have a very well fenced in backyard. I have a big front yard also that I take the pets out in but on a leash of course. I also have an elderly small female dog. I have a male young cat, he’s inside and outside so he’s not always around
About: I’ve had my beautiful dog buttercup for about 10 years now and my cat Donnie for about 4 years. I’ve had multiple jobs housesitting for multi animal houses and can’t wait to add your loved ones to my experience. I have no professional obligations currently. The only task I have throughout the day is to drop my partner off to work at 5 AM and pick him up at 3 PM. Open to all care needs. My love for animals makes me very detail oriented when it comes to care. I have cared for my dog through spinal issues and my cat through a urinary blockage.
About: With a Yorkie and Pomeranian in my family, I have been well equipped to take care of any pup! I love these furry guys and understand how important it is to have quality time away with quality care equipped for our little guys. I am currently a student at the University of Houston and am incorporating pet care into my schedule. I truly make time to make sure my clients pets are cared for. My Mondays-Friday afternoons are relatively free but please reach out and I can be flexible! In my own home, we have a free space for our dogs but keep any dangerous food or objects out of site as they have very sensitive stomachs. Remaining attentive with my little guys is very important as they get into trouble when they are not in sight. I am receptive & understanding to any requests needed for any home or service.
About: Hi! I’m Regina — a lifelong dog person (and former lawyer/tech executive) who understands what it’s like to travel and need care you can truly trust. I used to worry about whether my dogs were being fed well, getting enough exercise, and feeling safe and loved — so that’s exactly what I prioritize for every dog I board. I’m based in Sienna with a large, secure yard that’s especially helpful for older or mobility-limited dogs who need easy outdoor access. For active pups, we get outside for real walks and adventure time — I’m a runner and love long walks, so dogs in my care get more than quick potty breaks. I also build in enrichment and calm downtime (yes, I’ll play music for dogs) so they feel settled while you’re away. I’m safety-first, detail-oriented, and communicative, and I’ll send regular updates so you can relax knowing your dog is flourishing. Crate comfort: I have crates available if your dog is crate-trained, and I’m also happy to board dogs who aren’t — I’ll follow your routine and preferences. Optional add-on: Drop-off and pick-up are available for an additional fee. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently on sabbatical and prioritize daycare and overnight boarding. My days already include multiple outdoor breaks and longer walks, plus plenty of calm downtime at home, so dogs get a consistent rhythm of exercise, enrichment, meals, and rest. I use set drop-off and pick-up windows to keep care structured, safe, and predictable for every dog. I care for pets in my home only, where I can keep the environment calm, consistent, and closely supervised. I follow your instructions for feeding, routines, and any medications, and I build each day around regular potty breaks, outdoor time, and real walks (not just quick bathroom trips). I have a small yard for easy access—especially helpful for older or mobility-limited dogs—and I also prioritize enrichment and downtime so dogs feel settled. I have crates available for crate-trained dogs, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs who aren’t crate trained as well. I’ll send updates so you always know how your dog is doing.

FAQs for House Sitting - Newgulf
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 350 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Newgulf. 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 Newgulf 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 Newgulf 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 Newgulf 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newgulf. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
