“Leslie was everything that I could’ve hoped for in a pet sitter. My people shy kitty was very comfortable around her and so was I. I now feel like I don’t have to worry and wonder if friends can help me out when I travel. I can’t believe how easy this was and now I wonder what took me so long.”
“Julia cared for my 6 cats while I was out of the country for 10 days. 2 of the cats are afraid of strangers but after just a couple days, they were visiting with her and completely comfortable. They all loved her after a few more days! Julia spent time sitting and giving them pats and scritches, much to their delight! She gave one cat a pill effortlessly. I can’t wait to have Julia again and highly recommend her. Thank you Julia!”
“James was fantastic! He went out of his way to check on our kitties and give them love. He made sure my elderly cat had her kidney foot. He’s punctual, compassionate, and respectful thank you James!”
“Laurie was wonderful! We booked her for a few days worth of drop-in visits with our 1 year old dog Luna (40-lb border collie mix). We've only had Luna for 4 months (rescue) and she is incredibly timid and loud around strangers in the house. We were worried going into the weekend that we might even have to cancel our trip because Luna has been unmanageable by just about everyone we've tried to get to walk her. And even with us, on walks she is easily distracted and will try to chase everything from squirrels to grasshoppers. It can be a challenge for non-family to even get close enough to get a leash on her. Laurie was so kind and patient with Luna, and spent so much time with her to gain her trust. She proved fully capable of leashing Luna and bringing her on long walks. We will definitely be booking Laurie again! (provided she would be willing!)”
“Our dog LOVES Alyssa! During our meet and greet she took detailed notes and asked specific question to make sure she was aligned with the commands we use and training we are working on. The visit went very well and we got a detailed write up with great picture. Could not recommend Alyssa enough, she was awesome!”
“Lydia is great with our 2 big dogs that aren’t always easy to deal with. She is reliable and keeps you informed at all times. We certainly recommend her to care for your pets.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and taken care of them when needed! I love being around furry friends and make sure they get everything they need and more. I’m currently employed at my local coffee shop, but they’re under renovation so I’ve had a lot of availability! I love going on walks and walk 2-4 miles daily, so I’d love some furry company. At the cafe, I usually work 12-6, so I have plenty of time before and after to care for the pups during workdays as well. I am great at following directions and have a solid understanding of general doggy care in my clients home! I’m super reliable, let me know your needs and I’ll meet them!
About: Ive worked as a kennel technician for over 10 years and truly know what it means to care for animals professionally and personally. I know every dog in the kennel by name and take pride in understanding each pets unique personality and needs. I have studied animal behavior and am experienced with everything from shy, anxious pups to reactive or high energy pups. I also have hands on experience with a variety of health issue dog and am very in tuned with changes in behavior and health conditions. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I work full time 7-3:30 Monday through Friday. I am available for walks anytime after 3:30 & completely open in the weekends. Our two dogs and two cats are great with visitors so we can take boarders anytime. I am willing to house sit but not for longer stays. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. With over 10 years of kennel and animal handling experience, I provide structured, supervised care tailored to each dog’s individual needs and personality. Dogs enjoy enriching nature walks and adventure outings with safe travel accommodations including secured seatbelt leashes and a comfortable transport setup. During meals and rest times, dogs can be safely separated using gates to ensure a calm, stress-free environment. My home also features a gated wrap-around deck for supervised outdoor time, play, fresh air, and relaxation in a secure setting. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, reactive, or simply loves adventure, I focus on creating a safe, patient, and positive experience from start to finish.
“Abigail was incredibly flexible and so thoughtful when it came to our pups. They immediately took to her and although her care was brief we know we'll be bringing her back for future needs.”
“Kate was very communicative from our first message. She set up a meet and greet with our cat. She has a lovely demeanor. Our cat came up and allowed her to pet her on her first interaction. Daily texts, photos and videos made it clear that our cat was in good hands. I highly recommend Kate for your pet care!”
“Michela is an absolutely amazing with my 2 cats and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She took her time with one in particular who is really shy & timid. By the end of the visit, Michela had won her over. She definitely has my fur babies best interest at heart while using her instincts. My cats fell in love with her by the end.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have taken care of my own dogs as well as friends and neighbors. I have experience with labs, golden retrievers, German shepherds, Rottweilers, and pit bulls mostly but love all dogs. I currently work full time Monday-Friday (this is important to note when booking me for house sitting) and would love to help people with walking their pets/letting them out after work or on the weekends. I can’t have pets in my apartment and greatly miss interacting with dogs! I am very respectful of other people’s homes. I am clean and appreciate instructions/rules on where food, collars/leashes, treats, etc are. I will keep your furry companions company, provide long walks, and scratches of course!

Jenna was an amazing sitter while I was out of town. She was so kind and patient with my shy girl Olive. She kept me updated everyday and made sure Olive’s water fountain was always full and that her litter was clean. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter!
Leslie was everything that I could’ve hoped for in a pet sitter. My people shy kitty was very comfortable around her and so was I. I now feel like I don’t have to worry and wonder if friends can help me out when I travel. I can’t believe how easy this was and now I wonder what took me so long.
Kassidy did an outstanding job caring for my two cats and house-sitting for three nights. She went above and beyond—keeping the cats happy and calm, providing regular updates, feeding them not just their everyday food but medicine and supplements, helped out with couple unexpected deliveries, and at last left my home spotless. She even kindly arranged to the cushions on the couch! She was polite, professional, responsive, and clearly dedicated to pet wellbeing. Absolute 10/10—I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and exceptional pet sitter. Stellar!

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 .

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 Newmarket 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 Newmarket. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
