“It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Kimberly. She is fantastic and deserved 5 stars rating! Mousse (our Golden retriever) had a wonderful stay and really enjoyed her company. He did not hesitate to literally jump into her car, the second day we met :0) She was a huge help, always flexible with our schedule, needs and a joy to work with. I couldn't hope for a better experienced sitter!”
“Lulu and her friend Milly had a great stay at Cheyauna’s today while my friend’s and I enjoyed visiting beautiful and historic Newport for the first time. Thank you Cheyauna for keeping our babies safe and happy so that we could be free to explore and enjoy Newport!”
About: I have one sweet, playful dachshund and we would love to host your furry friend. I am very familiar with the specific care that dogs require and am willing to go above and beyond to make your pet happy. I took a two year break from rover sitting but I am reactive and ready to help any families with pet care! I have experience with all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and can provide any special care needed. I currently work from home full time. This gives me the opportunity to give your dog plenty of attention and care. As mentioned before I have a playful dachshund that would enjoy hosting your pup and could use some company! I have an unfenced large yard, for frequent potty breaks. All dogs will be under close supervision in the yard and never left outside unattended.
“Maddy was so great! Our dog was very comfortable with her. She knew we were super busy so she offered to come pick him up and drop him off. We were so thankful. We highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newport
Jenilie was a great sitter! My dog really enjoyed her house and yard. In addition to play time in the yard, he got walks around the neighborhood with Jenilie’s dog Leo. My dog seems to do best when he’s not the only dog in a new place but also doesn’t do well in large groups so Jenilie’s policy of only one guest dog at a time was perfect for my dog! Nelson was truly treated like a member of family.
Kelly was wonderful: prompt in her responses to my questions, and warm and friendly when we dropped our dog off with her for the day. It's obvious she knows and cares a lot about dogs--she immediately bonded with mine. She sent pics during the day and gave him lots of TLC while my husband and I were away. We could not have asked for a better dog-sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Newport on Rover is $43.29 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Newport commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in RI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog, 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, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 461 sitters in Newport, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
