“Elissa took great care of my dog while I was out of town celebrating my birthday. She was punctual, responsible, and followed all of my instructions perfectly. She kept me updated during each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. I really appreciated how reliable and caring she was throughout the entire experience. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Elissa!”

About: I have taken care of pets, including my own, since I was 8 years old. From big to small, dogs to cats, young and old, and many breeds I have a passion for taking care of animals! I am very reliable and have excellent communication. You will always find your pet happier than you left them! I am currently on summer break so have all the time in the world for your pet! I am free most days and most hours so have a very flexible schedule. Say the word and I will be there for your pet! I have 2 dogs and have taken care of many of my family and friends. I make sure to clean up after them, feed them on schedule, walk them, play with them, and keep up with grooming and hygiene! I will always make sure your pet is safe and gets the attention they need.
“Thank you so much for taking care of our cats while we were gone. Really appreciate it. Thanks for bringing in our Amazon Subscribe and Save boxes and garbage toters too. We can't thank you enough. Happy Holidays!”

“Martina went above and beyond to take care of my dog while I was out of town for work. This included belly rubs, snuggles, play time, and walks. It really felt that Martina treated him as if he was her own. She stuck to the agreed schedule and made sure he was happy. If another opportunity presents itself, I will be reaching back out.”

“Todd took amazing care of Finn during our drop‑ins! He was thorough, punctual, and makes dogs/pets feel instantly at ease. Finn can be shy/quirky at first with certain people, but Todd won him over immediately and kept me updated with photos and notes. It’s such a relief knowing Finn is in good hands. We’ll absolutely be using Todd again!”
About: I’ve spent over 30 years caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and care needs. My experience includes everything from energetic large breeds that need structured exercise and stimulation to senior dogs that require patience, comfort, and extra attention. I’m comfortable caring for: • Senior dogs and aging pets • Dogs with health concerns or special care needs • Anxious, shy, or nervous dogs • High-energy and active dogs • Large breeds and strong pullers • Dogs with special diets, feeding routines, or medications I understand that every dog is different, and I focus on providing personalized care based on their personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog needs calm companionship, active play and exercise, medication reminders, or simply extra patience and reassurance, I strive to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses to help owners feel confident and connected while their pets are in my care. Creating a positive, safe, and stress-free experience for both pets and owners has always been my priority. I currently offer full-time availability 7 days a week for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, boarding, and daycare services. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I’m available full-time, I’m able to accommodate a variety of schedules, including early mornings, evenings, weekends, and many last-minute requests when available. This also allows me to give pets more supervision, companionship, and personalized care rather than leaving them alone for extended periods. I understand how important reliability and communication are, and I strive to provide dependable care and quick responses for every booking request. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I take that responsibility seriously and always strive to provide dependable, respectful, and trustworthy care for both your pets and your home. Caring for dogs in their own familiar environment helps reduce stress and keeps their routines consistent, which is especially important for anxious dogs, senior pets, or dogs with specific care needs. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining the routines and instructions that owners provide. While in your home, I treat your space with professionalism, cleanliness, and respect. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and in good hands while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, reliable experience that gives both pets and owners peace of mind.
“She took such amazing care of our cat and dog. They loved her and she kept us so well updated. Took some amazing pictures of our pets and we couldn't be happier with their care.”

“Delaney took great care of our dogs, cat and house while we were gone. Very communicative, lots of updates with photos. She left our house clean and tidy, got our mail and all of our packages (we get a lot) I can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our farm.”
“Chase is so great I don’t even know what to say! She’s great with my dog, and with me in all communication. She always takes amazing photos, keeps me informed and makes me feel ok about leaving my dog when I go to work because I know she loves to hang out with Chase.”

“Thanks, Laura, for taking such good care of our cats! She was on top of everything—food, water, and the litter box—and even made sure they got their treats. We really appreciate the help!”

About: Hi! I’m Zhujing, a dependable and caring pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals.

During our time together, your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles (if they enjoy them!). I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine with feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions you have. My priority is making sure your pet feels comfortable and stress-free. I had a dog for 11 years, and she just passed away. Helping caring for your dogs, also helping myself go through the loss of my pup.

I live in an apartment, sorry I can’t have the pets in my apartment. But I’m happy to care for your pets in the client’s place.
About: I walk small dogs in Bellevue and genuinely enjoy every minute of it. You can expect a reliable, attentive walker who pays close attention to your dog's comfort and behavior — and always keeps you in the loop. I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of free time, which means I'm never rushing through a visit. I already have a daily routine with my own two cats — feeding, playtime, litter, and just being present with them. To me, that consistency is the foundation of a happy cat's life, and I bring that same approach to every pet I care for. I follow your routines to ensure your pet remains comfortable in its familiar surroundings. Before every visit I like to ask the important details — whether your cat goes outside, tends to sit on open windows, chews on plants, or has any habits I should know about. I ask all the necessary questions to cover every detail and maintain open communication throughout.
“When I arrived home my pups were happy and not stressed. I got updates and responses when needed and the photos recalled calmed my nerves while I was away. April is one you can trust with your pets.”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Newport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newport choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
