“Stephanie was nothing short of amazing! She took great care of my babies while on vacation, and even took care of our ferret (who was unable to be listed on Rover). She took it on herself to let me know everything going on, and I never was worried about my kids. Genuinely, thank you for treating my fur babies like your own!”
About: I’ve had a pet my whole entire life from cats, dogs and more. My neighborhood is friendly and open for walks and fields for playing. I cherish animal love so much because they’re so innocent and cute. I love cuddling with them and running around in the backyard for fun. My siblings would love to have animals in my house everyday. Dogs are my absolute favorite and cats are just adorable !!♥️ I’m currently a stay at home mom with my 9 month old and my 2 siblings (7 & 10), who also LOVE animals (yes even the 9 month old..esp dogs). We can travel anywhere & they’ll be my little helpers throughout the week! I have a fenced in yard, leash’s, 2 amazing helpers who love animals just as much as i do! I’ve also taken care of animals all my life.
“Our puppy had a great time with Kristin! We trusted her in our home, she replies quickly, is reliable, and she updated us with pictures of our fur baby while we were away.”
About: As a family of animal lovers, we provide a safe, caring, and fun environment for your pets. My 11-year-old and 15-year-old children absolutely love animals and enjoy helping give them attention, playtime, and plenty of affection. We have a large yard where dogs can safely run and play, and we make sure they get regular walks and exercise. Have had experience with animals, including a senior dog all my life. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work from home and have a flexible schedule (adjust as needed), which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I do not have a fence but will go out with your dog and take it for a walk. My kids look for dogs to pet and play with everywhere. Exercise is something I am trying to do in the summer, let me watch your dog and take them for a walk.
“Claire was amazing. My cat was very happy well fed and taken care of. She always kept me updated with plenty of pictures. I was perfectly happy with her service. Great job. I tipped her in cash. Would use her again.”

From Turtle to Tabi cat to Great Dane! I have experienced with senior animals, puppy’s and medication administration. I’d love to chat about your pets individual needs to adapt and care for them the best way possible.

I’m a pet parent myself so my day starts and ends with my pup! I’m typically free from 9am-2:30pm before heading to work to walk, run, play or lounge with your pet. Mondays and Tuesdays I have a completely free schedule to work around for your needs. Wed-Sunday I’m free from 9am-2:30pm before heading to work to walk, run, play or lounge with your pet. I am off work between 9-10 (depends on the day) and can come back to continue care. Respecting both your home and your pets boundaries is a huge priority for me. Whatever makes your pet feel comfortable in my care comes first. I’d love to chat about what your daily routine looks like with your pet to make sure they’re best cared for
About: I have plenty of experience of taking care of dogs, cats and other types of animals we call our babies. I have three cats and a turtle of my own at home. Your pets will be loved and watched as if they were my own and more because I know the fears of leaving them alone with someone new. I currently am employed but I am looking to become a full-time sitter or make a transition into the industry working alongside animals. I have a long time dream to open my own shelter one day. I care for your pets as if they were my own babies. Mainly following all your instructions and guidelines, with a little touch of love. I will always provide photos for proof of life and keep updates if necessary.
About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a former ICU nurse and current CRNA student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets behind, so my goal is to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own two cats, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving oral medications, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. Whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. As a healthcare professional, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep communication a priority. You’ll receive plenty of updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands.

I always prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated throughout each visit. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don’t take that lightly.

I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Mackenzie was amazing! Extremely prompt communicator. Helped us out on very short notice. Went above and beyond expectations, even taking out our trash to the curb for us. Our kitties were happy when we returned home.”
“Great communication! She was quick to respond to any message or question we had. Very professional and our dog had no issue warming up to her. Would highly recommend! Plan to use her again in the future.”
About: I've owned animals ever since I could remember. When I was a baby we had a cat named Pookie Bear. Around the time I turned 5 my parents bought me a dog I named Pumpkin. Around 7 years ago Pookie Bear unfortunatly passed away, but knowing we needed a cat we bought 4 more! Void, Cuddles, Peeper and Ci-Ci. Then in 2019 Pumpkin had to be put down, but I couldnt live without a dog, so that summer I went and bought a German Shepherd puppy that I named Gizmo. Gizmo is now 3 years old and I couldnt imagine life without him. He is truly part of the family now. I travel for work on some weekends but am mostly always free. I will make sure to always have my calendar updated to show when I wont be availible. If I am checking up on your animal I will make sure to follow all directions given and also give the animal the best care that it needs!
“Cindy is an absolute gem! Clearly read instructions before stopping by for first meet and greet! The communication and pictures before, during and after the daily visits gave me such peace of mind, and allowed me to enjoy my time away! My cat and I truly appreciated Cindy’s attention to detail and clear love for our furry friends!”
“Bobbie was amazing and accommodating with me and my dog Mabel. She was super friendly, calm, and knowledgeable about dogs and specifically pit bulls. I got lots of updates and she was very transparent on what my dog was doing in her care. Definitely will be using Bobbie again!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years and have experience with dogs, cats, parrots, reptiles, chickens, amphibians, and small mammals. I’ve owned pets continuously since childhood, from Golden Retrievers and a Border Collie to cockatiels that I’ve cared for into their senior years. I currently have three rescue cockatiels and understand the patience, consistency, and attention to detail that pets need. Friends, family, and neighbors have also trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for throughout my week. I work part-time, which allows me to accept drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting that fit my schedule. I’m committed to following your pet’s routine as closely as possible and will communicate clearly about my availability. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, or dependable daily care, I’ll make sure they receive the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. During visits or house sitting, I’ll make sure your home is secure, your pets have fresh food and water, and they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection at a pace they’re comfortable with. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was in middle school. I grew up on a farm so I’m comfortable being around every kind of pet you have (unless it’s a snake😂). I walk dogs, pet sit, clean litter boxes, give treats, train pets, and give lots of love to your babies! I am currently a Personal Trainer at a gym and I have a very easy flexible schedule. I’m very active so if your pets need exercise, I’m your girl! My cat is the king of my home and I believe all animals deserve to be treated with love and care so they feel comforted and happy. I know how it feels being away and someone else watching my pets so I always make sure to send updates and photos of the happy animals to make sure you and your pet are satisfied!

Amazing service! Kasie is professional, friendly and flexible. I felt very comfortable leaving my kitty in her care. She always sent pictures and updates which I appreciated. I even had to switch the schedule a little bit throughout my trip, and she took it in stride.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Newport on Rover is $15.54 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,249 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
