About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life, such as dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I’m very reliable and will make sure to follow directions on how you want your animal taken care of. I am currently a student and have a part time job, but I also have a lot of free time on my hands making this type of job perfect for me. I grew up around cats and dogs growing up and care deeply for animals. For animals I board I like to do a meet and greet to let your animal get to know an unfamiliar place with you there. For dog sitting I like to do a meet and greet at the house or a nearby park to get to know your pet and so that I’m not a stranger to them when hanging with them.

About: Hello! We are a husband-and-wife pet care team with a lifelong love for animals. Having both grown up surrounded by pets, caring for animals has always been a natural part of our lives. We are experienced dog owners, have trained our own dogs, and in recent years have also been responsible breeders of several dog breeds, giving us extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. What sets us apart is that we typically work as a team, providing your pets with the attention and care of two dedicated animal lovers. Whether your pet needs daily walks, companionship, exercise, or extra attention while you're away, we treat every animal as if they were our own. We have experience caring for puppies, seniors, and dogs with special needs, and we are comfortable administering medications when required. We understand that your pets are family, and our goal is to provide reliable, loving care that gives you complete peace of mind. When you choose us, you're choosing a trusted team that will care for your loved ones as if they were part of our own family. I have a flexible part-time work schedule that allows me to care for your fur babies when you need me to. My schedule is built around your pet care needs. We believe every pet deserves personalized care based on their unique needs, personality, and routine. Before providing care, we take the time to learn about your pet's schedule, feeding requirements, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions to ensure a seamless experience. For care in your home, we strive to maintain your pet's normal routine to minimize stress and keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. We provide feeding, fresh water, walks, exercise, playtime, litter box or yard maintenance, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and companionship. We are also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a husband-and-wife team, we often work together, allowing us to provide additional attention and flexibility for your pets. Our lifelong experience with animals, including owning, training, and breeding several dog breeds, has given us the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs. We are comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals requiring special accommodations or medications. Our goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were our own and provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience for both pets and their owners.

Outstanding Cat Sitter — Above and Beyond! Rebekah was absolutely wonderful with our two cats, Sadie and Bella! During the five days Rebekah cared for our girls, we received updates twice a day, always with great photos and videos. Every message was thoughtful and “newsy,” and Rebekah never hesitated to respond whenever we reached out, which gave us the total peace of mind everyone wants while out of town. One of our cats, Sadie, worked herself into such a state that she developed diarrhea even before we left. When we let Rebekah know, she suggested adding pumpkin to Sadie’s diet—and voilà! Problem solved. We were so impressed by Rebekah’s attentiveness, knowledge, and genuine care for our cats. We came home to two happy, well‑cared‑for girls and couldn’t be more grateful. This was the first time we have used Rover or worked with Rebekah, but it absolutely won’t be the last. We highly recommend Rebekah and would book again in a heartbeat!

Jan was amazing with Minion and his care. She was punctual, attentive, and made sure to let me know of anything she saw. She gives the absolute best updates too! Her attention to detail with our meet and greet gave me confidence but she really knocked it out of the oark with her stellar care. Weird measure metric I know but whenever we're away, his coat gets oily like he gets sad and doesn't clean himself. When we got home today he was happy, clean, and soft. So I know for sure he really enjoyed her company. I absolutely recommend her and will reach out to her for our future pet sitting needs.

I moved here not knowing anyone and needed someone to come let my babies out 2 times a week. She came and met me and the pups; and we instantly loved her! She truly loves and cares so much for them just like her own! She is dependable and so sweet; and we will continue to rebook every week with her! Me and the pups are so thankful for her!

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life as a child, wildlife rehabilitator and as a wildlife biologist. For the last year and a half I have built a very nice reputation as a dependable and loving pet sitter. I have watched dogs, cats and birds! I have taken care of many senior dogs as well as a few puppies. Needless to say I’m not afraid of a pee pad or pill bottles! I work remotely and choose my hours, meaning, I can be with your animals at all time if need be. I do not mind staying with them 24/7 while you are away. It also means you can contact me any time that you need too. I live on a dead end road with very low traffic and have a very large yard. We will also go for nice walks down to the river where our road ends and a trail leads out to the river. My two main borders often do not want to leave or they want to come back home with me. It’s a great spot for dogs, whether they need to be leashed or not. If I am staying at your house I will always follow their normal routine. I really like for my clients to leave a note with food instructions, treat instructions, medicine, and daily routine. I also like to have a just incase number (neighbor or family member in the area) and the veterinarian. This is all just incase of an emergency and to make sure your pet stays safe and has the best time possible with me.

About: Hello! I am Adeline! I am a local so I know there area pretty well! I’ve been working in the animal world for nearly 4 years and am Vet assistant certified. I have since left the field but want to stay in close contact with furry faces! If I do not have availability for the time you need I can refer Zoey Robinette who is also a reliable pet sitter and has sat my babies many times, please reach out to her right here on Rover should you need services I am currently working 9-5 Monday-Friday and have most availability on weekends if overnights are needed. Although I am flexible and do still offer overnight stays during the week depending on distance! I have a few hours in the morning to be able to accomplish any care the fur babies will need in the morning but afternoon drop offs do work the best during the week! I also am not limited to just pets when drop offs are needed! My own fur babies at home are always very well taken care of, happy and healthy. I would treat your furry family with the most respect, care and compassion as I would my own!

Jacy was a joy to have watching over my four-legged family while I was away. She is very communicative and responsive and was eager to please. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and my dog and cat loved having her!! I would happily recommend Jacy to anyone and look forward to having her take care of my fur family in the near future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Newport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Newport on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 234 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.

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

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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.
