About: My family and friends have depended on me for many years to take care of their cats and dogs. I am a reliable pet-sitter who loves animals. I work full-time from my home Monday through Thursday and can adjust my schedule accordingly to meet the needs of my clients. My availability Friday through Sunday is very flexible. I do not have a dog, but have walked/taken care of dogs of my family and friends. I have a cat who runs my household. I have had cats in the past with specific medical and dietary needs (diabetes requiring insulin shots, kidney disease requiring a special diet and have administered medicine numerous times over the past 28 years).

“Kristine does a great job with my dog. He can be stubborn or get scared on walks and want to go home. If that is the case she will stay and play with him in the backyard. But she also gets creative and communicates with me on strategies to get him to walk and it has worked. Overall great communication and very timely. Would recommend her to walk or care for your dog.”

About: Hi! My name is Ashley. I am originally from Superior. We just recently moved to Woodbury from Appleton. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and the level of care and communication I provide. I’ve had dogs my entire life, including hands-on experience caring for a diabetic dog, so I’m comfortable with medication routines, special diets, and consistent care. I’m confident with high-energy dogs and patient with puppies and seniors who need a gentler pace. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home often and able to provide attentive, structured care, along with regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are very open for walks and drop-in visits, as I’m home and have a flexible schedule on those days. Tuesdays and Thursdays also work well when my schedule is open, and I’m happy to communicate availability in advance. Weekends are often available as well and may vary slightly depending on my family’s schedule, but I do my best to remain flexible whenever possible. Overnight care is also something I’m excited to offer when my schedule allows, as I understand how comforting it can be for pets to stay in their own home while their owners are away. I’m always happy to discuss scheduling needs and will be clear and communicative to ensure the best care for your pets. I care for pets as if they were my own, closely following their routine and your instructions. In your home, I focus on consistent feeding, walks, medications, and any special care needs. For walks and drop-ins, I make sure each visit includes quality time, attention, exercise, and affection, not just a quick stop.

About: Between my own family and my wife's, I've had alot of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I've house sat for elderly dogs and raised and trained our own puppy. I've rescued half a dozen lost dogs from our neighborhood. Every dog I meet gets lots of love and yours would be no exception! We already have our miniature poodle pup Winston, so your pup would fit right in with us! I am working from home the vast majority of the time and if I was gone, my wife would be there. As the kid who was always the first to notice when a dog needed to go out and do its business, I'm very attentive to the needs of all dogs. Your pup will be a part of our family during their stay and kept company by my whole family.

About: Hi! I am a student and work in IT, what better way to spend my time than with animals ?! I have worked with plenty of dogs and cats over the years. I am available as needed but will be limiting myself to only a few dogs/households per week so everyone can have a more personalized and genuine experience . I am very open to any special needs or requests and will do my best to accommodate everyone. I'm happy to walk or jog but I am not much of a runner. So bigger breeds may not be a good fit for me if you are looking to get them out at the park for a good run. But I'm sure I can keep up with the smaller guys :) I work hybrid/remote, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups/ kitties 🙂 My partner is also home during the day and is available to help out while I’m gone . I will board pets in my home any time. Must be okay with our cats 🐈 🐈‍⬛ If you want a house sitter I am not available to stay overnight in your home currently but happy to do drop in visits.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and currently have two toy poodles who are our world. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible and provide daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. My goal is to make your dog feel like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away! 🐾 My husband and I both work from home, so your dogs will definitely not be lonely during the day! We are able to give frequent walks, potty breaks and play time, and lots of snuggles! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly toy poodles who enjoy the company of other dogs. I closely supervise all interactions and work to make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure. If your dog is crate-trained or needs to be crated, I can accommodate that as well. Dogs are welcome on our couches and, if that’s what they’re used to at home, they’re welcome to sleep on the bed at night, too. I do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for more than 30 years and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after a member of your family. I’m a responsible, mature professional and longtime dog owner who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages and personalities, including senior dogs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications and each owner’s individual instructions. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, comfortable, happy and well cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My work schedule is flexible and varies throughout the month, giving me plenty of days and time at home to provide attentive pet care. I carefully manage my Rover availability so I only accept bookings when I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for weekdays, weekends and extended stays depending on my schedule. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and want every pet to feel comfortable and secure in my care. I have a friendly dog of my own and will make sure dogs are introduced appropriately before sharing our home. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll respect their normal feeding, walking, medication and sleeping routines and provide regular updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away.

About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little kid ! I have had experience with a big and small dogs. I regularly take care of my friends dogs. I have dogs of my own and understand how hard it is to get them outside while being busy. I am home from college right now and have extra time on my hands ! I will always put your dogs needs as my top priority! I will keep you updated during the walk as having someone else walking your dog can be stressful.

“Andrea did a fantastic job with Ruby on her walk. She was quick to respond to my request, and ended up walking Ruby for almost an hour. Andrea was adept with how to handle a training puppy, and made me feel extremely comfortable with her care and handling of my dog. I would happily use Andrea again!”

Katie is a gem. Our nervous dog who doesn’t like people he doesn’t know adores her. She took the time to get him comfortable with her, which has paid off in dividends and it is such a relief to have someone else who he trusts to go on walks. Will always recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Newport is $11 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $11 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 5,391 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Newport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Newport. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Newport after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newport. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers 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.

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 walker.
