“We love having Alice as our catsitter! She's reliable, thoughtful, and takes care of all the details, so we know our two cats are well cared for while we're away. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Katya gave my cat, Leilani! Leilani struggles with separation anxiety and tends to get pretty depressed when I go on vacation, so leaving her is always a little stressful for me. Katya was wonderful about communicating throughout my trip, which I really appreciated. But what impressed me most was how well Leilani seemed to do emotionally while I was gone. Normally, when I come home from a trip, Leilani makes sure I know just how unhappy she is that I left her. I usually get the cold shoulder for hours, sometimes even days, before she decides to forgive me and return to her normal, affectionate self. This time, it took just minutes! That’s a pretty big deal. She seemed happy, relaxed, and so much better adjusted than she typically does after I’ve been away. I really believe that says a lot about the attention, patience, and care Katya gave her. What I appreciated most is that Katya clearly understands there’s more to caring for a cat than making sure they’re fed and their litter box is clean. Their emotional well-being matters, too. I’m genuinely grateful to have found Katya and wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Leilani again. If you’re looking for someone who communicates well, genuinely cares, and pays attention to your cat’s individual needs, I highly recommend her!”
“Elena was fantastic with our two cats while we were traveling. She sent updates and photos every day and knowing our two kitties were being checked on every day made our trip even more relaxing.”
“Irina was absolutely amazing with my cat, Velvet. She is kind, caring, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond. She played with Velvet, sent lots of wonderful pictures, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Velvet really likes her, and I can tell he feels comfortable and happy with her. She made sure Velvet had everything he needed, and I came home knowing he had been very well taken care of. I’m so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend Irina to anyone looking for someone amazing and trustworthy to care for their cat!”
“Xiaoxiao was fantastic! She was incredibly attentive and responsible with the drop-in visits. Her communication was excellent—she was proactive in keeping me updated and always replied quickly. She was so friendly to my cats, and I could tell that our cats really liked her too. I highly recommend her!”
“Nicole was wonderful! She checked on our cat every other day while we were out of town. We met in advance and she asked all the right questions. During the visits, she gave detailed updates and photos. Will absolutely request her services again!”
“Grace is amazing! She went above and beyond for all my pets, both furry and scaly while I was gone. She gave great updates and I slept well thousands of miles away knowing that all my babies were being attended to with attention and care. I highly recommend her for all your pet-sitting needs.”
About: I am a certified Seattle Humane volunteer and have a dog, of my own. I currently have a related job and my own petsitting business. I currently only work one shift on Sunday mornings, most of my time is freed up since i graduated and am doing a gap year. I come over to your house with trust and the knowledge that your pet is special to you. I give them all they need and more, providing a positive experience.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of both dogs and cats throughout my whole life. Big dogs, small dogs, you name it! I can do just about anything. There might be some things that you require that I don’t have experience in, but nothing to fear pet lover is here! You give me instructions and I’ll follow! Im currently working part time as a server! On my days off I’m quite flexible, I will likely always be available on said days at any time. All pets are different, I have experience with cats and dogs. I think the best way to earn trust is to be patient and understand boundaries. Small sniff from the hand if they let you get close, let the pet come to you!
“Sarah was awesome! Got some amazing photos of our precious kitty! Affordable, on time, and did an amazing job! 5/5 will certainly hire again! Thanks, Sarah, for all your help!”
“Zubia is great! She kept us informed of each visit and how our fur babies were doing. She also tried to socialize with our albeit not very social kitties, to make sure they weren’t lonely. We would definitely have Zubia watch our kitties again!”
About: I have had dogs since I was 3 years old and cats for over 10 years, taking care of them ever since. In addition, family and friends hired me to take care of their pets and homes in their absence. I currendly able after 3pm on weekdays and during weekends my schedule it is more flexible, having almost the whole weekend free for your fur baby. I prefer to take care of your pet at home (and take walks in the neighborhood) since it is in a safe and familiar place for him/her.
“JingJie was amazing with our cat Sophie! She came on time every day, played with her, and sent daily videos that made our kids so happy. We had total peace of mind knowing Sophie was in great hands — highly recommend!”
“Anna is a great cat/house sitter and I would highly. Recommend her. I have a 21 year old senior cat with several medical needs. Anna stayed overnight and gave oral medication to my cat who is feisty with strangers. Anna is responsible, dependable and has excellent communication skills. She texted me with questions on issues that we had not covered and I appreciated that. She has high integrity and I felt that I could trust her in my home and with my cat.”
About: As a life-long cat owner who travels frequently, and the go-to caretaker for my friends and neighbors since I was a kid, I deeply understand the importance of excellent care for our kitties. Cats love routines, so I take special care to follow your usual schedule to keep your cats comfortable while you're away. I'm comfortable with cats of all ages and happy to accommodate unique food and training needs. I work for an overseas-based company, so I'm available during the daytime to check in on your fur babies. I'm also available most weekends Friday - Sunday for home stays! I prefer to follow your pets' usual routine while you're away. In addition to their usual food, water, and playtime needs, I'll ask you about emergency contacts, cleaning supplies, and other just-in-case necessities.
“Keith just helped us with our cats for the first time over the holidays. He was very communicative and did an extra thorough search to put eyes on our most elusive hider so I wouldn’t be worried while we were out. It was very much appreciated!”
“Kevin was amazing! He quickly became friends with Muffin - played with him a lot, pet him and even let him sleep on him. Kevin is super friendly and caring. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur baby was in good hands. Thanks, Kevin!”
“Lisa is an amazing cat sitter! I feel lucky to have found her. My 2 cats received the care I would personally wish for them. Lisa started by summarizing my requests, shared the format with me. This immediately gave me confidence knowing how Lisa intends to treat my cats and allowed me to focus on enjoying my vacation. Lisa balanced giving both cats equal love and the cats warmed up to her. I am very happy with this sit!”
“You could not ask for a more kind, considerate, prepared person to care for your pet. Margo went above and beyond to make sure my cat was comfortable with her and was actually eating his food (because he can be fussy!). Highly recommended!!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Newport
Chad provided great care for our elderly cat who needed a couple meds and feeding twice daily. He was completely reliable in his visits and when we returned, all was well organized as when we left and clean in our pet’s area and with his food. It was a great relief to us that we could rely on Chad while we were away and that he was quite capable of caring for our sometimes picky cat!
Yini was an amazing cat sitter! She was very attentive, caring, and punctual, and her communication was excellent throughout. She followed all of my instructions carefully and made sure my cat was happy and well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail and would definitely book her again in the future. Highly recommend!
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Meng while we were out of the country. She sent amazing photo/video updates throughout the stay. they were so fun to look at and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Milo has some anxiety, and Meng was so accommodating to his needs, making sure he felt comfortable and cared for the whole time. It was clear our pets were in wonderful hands. We'd absolutely book her again!
Heather did an awesome job checking in on our cats while we were gone. I accidentally had a package delivered that I wasn't expecting and she even brought it inside for us before I knew it was there! I will definitely book her again. She really took the time to help our cats feel cared for while we were away.
Ingrid is a highly professional, communicative, and responsible pet sitter. She has watched our young, spirited, rescue cat 3 times while we were out of town. Ingrid played with her, took her outside, and sent great photo updates upon request. As a first time cat family, we trust Ingrid implicitly with Morticia’s care. We will definitely hire Ingrid again! 🐈⬛ 😀
Irina was wonderful! We have especially shy girls and Irina was super patient and good with them. We are very very happy with how she followed our house, feeding, litterbox, and play rules and expectations. The last time we left them with another sitter they never left their hiding places. This time with Irina even our most shy cat came out to eat and get some pets while the other cat played with her several times. This is very showing of how much they liked and felt comfortable with her. Her updates each visit were detailed and we really appreciated all the photos she sent. Irina is attentive, professional, and thorough. We will be rebooking her in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!
Malia provided our two kitties with tons of love and playtime while we were on vacation, and followed all of our care instructions perfectly! It was a huge relief getting several pictures each time she visited for breakfast and dinner, seeing how well they were doing. I would happily trust her to take the best care of them in future!
Lauren was the best with our cats! She is very responsive, feels comfortable around animals, and gave the upmost care to our pets. I appreciated her check-ins throughout the visits as well as her willingness to follow through with all of our nuanced care instructions.
Hongfei took great care of my cats over the weekend. He was very attentive, spent plenty of time playing with them, and made sure they were comfortable and happy. He even cleaned up a hairball when she threw up, which I really appreciated. It was clear that he genuinely cares about cats. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Newport is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $43 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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.

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 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 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 sitter.
