“Kiwi is one of the best! I’ve been using Rover for many years now for my cat. I have had great experiences with several sitters while we’ve lived in three different states. Kiwi took such great care of my kitty. She went above and beyond! Her updates were some of the best I’ve ever received. Detailed, thoughtful, and thorough. It helped me to be worry-free as my cat was in excellent care while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“Polina was an absolutely wonderful host for my cat TT. She is incredibly friendly, kind, and very responsive throughout the entire stay. What impressed me most was her responsibility and attentiveness. TT has diabetes and requires regular insulin injections. Polina handled every shot reliably. She gave me great peace of mind during my 10 days trip. I felt completely comfortable leaving TT in her care and would not hesitate to book with Polina again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet host!”

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life! I currently have four cats of my own and have also owned dogs, so I'm comfortable caring for both. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets, and I'll treat yours with the same care and attention I give my own. I enjoy getting outside and going for walks, so I'm happy to help your dog get some exercise, whether they prefer a leisurely walk with lots of sniffing or something a little more energetic. I'm also very familiar with different cat personalities and understand that some want all the attention while others prefer their space. I'm happy to follow your pet's normal routine and make sure they're comfortable while you're away. I work full-time during the week, but I'm available for early morning and evening walks and drop-in visits, with more flexibility on weekends and holidays. I'm also happy to provide overnight house sitting on weekends and holidays when my schedule allows. I may occasionally be available for weekday visits depending on the time and location, so feel free to reach out! I'm always happy to see what I can accommodate. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'll always follow your pet's normal routine and any specific instructions you provide, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, medications, or just making sure they get plenty of attention. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I'll take the time to make sure they're comfortable with me. I'll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: Hi! I joined a local organization called Purrfect Pals at 16 years old. It was a place dedicated to giving our feline friends a chance for or they provided a happy life for our feline friends where they could live out the rest of their days in peace. Old or young, healthy or sick, grumpy or happy. They all had a home at perfect pals! I strive to follow the same ideals and treat all furry friends as my own family. I grew up with dogs and cats and have spent my entire life around them. Often being called a Dog or Cat whisper (Though i always deny it!) I know how difficult it is to trust your baby with a stranger, I promise to treat your baby as mine. As I would wish no less for my Loki. Hi, Honestly it’s only three days out of the week that I need to limit the exact times that i can provide potty breaks. I work three 9s and two 6.5s, while having Thursday and Fridays off work. I often start early in the morning and am off work by early to mid afternoon, which provides plenty of time for our furry friends even on days I do work my other job! As long as i’m aware of the time frame I can be pretty dang flexible! Base Expectations for Cat Care: Food! water refresh, litter box cleaning, brushing (if cat likes) and play time (this length and type depending on cat (please tell me all about your kitty!)), Base Expectations for Dog Care: Feeding, water refill, potty break! play time! please tell me what your dog likes! I prefer to meet the dog where they are :) *I’ll follow all feeding schedules as best I can!

She followed all of our instructions for care and was very communicative with us. She left great rover cards and took lots of photos.

I also pet sat my SIL’s cats at her house (one a senior, other younger) while she traveled overseas for a month, along with aiding in looking after four young puppies for a month. Also, I establish trust and care with both dogs and cats in a timely manner, ensuring that they fill safe and loved. Also, I have had several cats and dogs of my own throughout the years. I am currently in my summer break so I can be there for your pets practically at anytime, just busy on Monday and Wednesday mornings until 12 pm. In your home, I can feed, walk, play, and love your dogs and cats as much as is needed. If they have routines or need to be put up / crated, I can facilitate those.

“She was absolutely wonderful with Hagrid! He’s only 8 weeks old, and she was so sweet, patient, and attentive with him. She sent me lots of photos and videos throughout the visit, which made me feel so comfortable while I was at work. She played with him, fed him, took him out for potty breaks, and even noticed when he was about to have an accident and quickly took him to his potty area. 🥰 Hagrid seemed so happy and comfortable with her. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with over 2 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and 4 years with cats, along with volunteer work at animal shelters in TX but since I had to moved to PNW I’m excited to continue doing what I love. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, medication support, or extra cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My shelter experience has taught me how to work patiently with pets of all temperaments, from shy and anxious to highly active. My goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pet the best care possible I currently work part-time in the mornings and am available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks from around noon through the afternoon and early evening. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable care and plenty of attention to your pets when you need it most. 🐾 I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. In my clients’ homes, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and any special instructions. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether they enjoy lots of attention or prefer a calmer approach. I also provide regular photo and message updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. As a pet parent myself, I treat every animal as if they were my own. 🐾

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, growing up on farms and the like, I have endless experience watching family and friend's dogs and cats. I have energy for those big dogs that love to tug of war, I am the perfect partner for a good game of fetch and a calming energy for those pets that love to lounge around. I love doing yoga with pets around, makes for playful interaction. I take my time getting to know a pet, learning their specific needs and where they loved to be pet the most. I attune myself to each animal. I never force a connection, I also let the animal get to know me too. I have experience with puppies, kittens, young pups, older pups and cats alike. I am currently unemployed and looking to make this my priority for the next couple months while I save up money to go to school abroad. So pet care and sitting fits into my daily life pretty smoothly. I am ready and open as soon as you need me. I respect every client's home and treat their pet as if they were my own. I know how special and close animal-person connections are. I make it a goal to keep the home neat and safe for your animal.

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!

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!

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!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Newport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Newport is $29 per visit as of October 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. 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 6,727 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 .

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.

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 .

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

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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 , 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.
