“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!”
“Absolutely fabulous! Heather kept us updated on how our kitties were doing, and she sent lots of pictures. Our two cats seemed happy and content when we came home. Heather was also great to communicate with. All around a great experience. We will definitely try to have her look after our cats again next time we are out of town!”
“Camille was fabulous! Stitch was well taken care of. Meeting before hand was perfect. Easy and flexible on the scheduling. I'll definitely have Camille back. :)”
About: Worked with a fear aggressive collie who is now only fear anxious after extensive training, worked with an American stafford pittie mix, an elderly chihuahua, elderly cats, a German shepherd with severe hip displacia who didn't know how to play with other dogs or the difference between playing and fighting, worked with a terrier chihuahua mix who was severely abused beforehand and has problems with people and doors, and I've raised kittens as well as puppies I'm currently just in need of a side gig to make rent and hopefully to enjoy doing it alongside my job. I'm available 5 days a week as I work from home. I have an off leash dog park within walking distance, a kitty for you kitties to play with(he can easily be put away if your dog isn't cat friendly) plenty of toys and space in my flat, and lots of love and care to give all your fur babies
“This was our first time using the Rover.com service, and first time working with Jackie, and we could not be more pleased and grateful. Jackie is thoughtful, easy to work with, and very responsive. Plus, she sent us a daily message with photos of our cat while we were traveling, which made the days and distance melt away. We plan on getting in touch with Jackie again the next time we travel.”
About: I've taken care of medium dogs belonging to friends and family 😊 I've brushed, walked, fed, played, and cuddled with many different dogs, so I've got you covered! I'm currently working part time and am a part-time college student, so I have a lot of time to put into pet care :) I love going on adventures in my free time, whether it is to new parks or hikes! I have a very large fenced in yard and pickleball/basketball court, so your pup will have lots of room to run! I'm also located very close to multiple parks/dog parks (downtown bellevue park, newcastle beach park, robinswood dog park, etc.!) and my neighborhood also has a large grass field perfect for playing fetch. My home is also spacious and equipped with AC to keep your dog cool in the heat.
“We enjoyed having Teresa take care of our two kitties…we found them happy and well fed when we returned home. Thank you for taking such good care of our kitties.”
“Kevin has been absolutely fantastic with our dog! She's very high-energy, and Kevin always finds creative ways to keep her engaged and burn off that energy. We mentioned that she needed to work on not jumping on people and also no barking for attention, and Kevin was great about reinforcing those behaviors during their time together. We've seen real improvement! Our pup is always thrilled to see him and is totally tuckered out—and happy—after each visit. Kevin is also incredibly responsive and communicates clearly. I especially love reading the notes and seeing the pictures he shares in the Rover cards 😊”
“Olivia was excellent. She was communicative and responsive, she also reasonably accommodated a date change me last minute. I’d highly recommend Olivia. My dogs were well taken care of!”
“Toki was great- on time and took care of our care and out packages inside. We always received a photo of our cat. My only suggestion would be to also leave a message about the visit when there.”
“Mai was so friendly and helpful while taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I had waited last-minute to look for a cat sitter and sent out a request to Mai. She responded promptly and we were able to set up a meeting. She came consistently at the same time each day and provided timely updates and photos. She followed all instructions and is just a great and kind person to talk to. I highly recommend anyone to book Mai for your pet-sitting needs!”
“James was great! Always on time and very kind to my dog, and my mother, who was at home alone with all my pets. He even brought her a plate of Thanksgiving giving dinner, knowing she was home alone. She was so happy! Thank you James.”
“We booked with Mik a little last minute a week before our two week international trip when our initial sitter was a no show for a meet and greet, and we are so glad we did! Mik was professional, and excellent communicator, and was very flexible working together with a family member who was also caring for our pets; especially when new challenges came up (our cat was hospitalized the weekend before we left for a urinary blockage). She was awesome at interacting with our pets at the level they were comfortable with, and I could tell that they became buds by the end of our trip! ☺️ We also appreciated all of the pictures and details we were given during her home visits, as well as how Mik put in the effort to provide engagement and stimulation for our pets on a variety of ways. I would definitely recommend booking with her, and we hope to do so again in the future!”
“Words cannot fully express how grateful I am to Jiru for the incredible care she gave to my cat, Doya, while I was away. Leaving Doya for over two weeks was a huge emotional challenge for me, cause she has never before being apart for such a long time. But Jiru’s unwavering dedication and loving attention gave me peace of mind every single day! I asked her to check in on Doya every two days, and she made it with such care, ensuring her food and water were just right, keeping an eye on her litter box, and most importantly, monitoring Doya’s mood and well-being. It was clear that Jiru treated Doya like her own, and her gentle, compassionate presence helped my cat stay calm, healthy, and comforted throughout my absence. I am so deeply thankful to Jiru for her kindness and for making this difficult time so much easier on both of us. Thanks to her, I returned to find my beloved Doya happy and safe, and that means more to me than words can express.”
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. 🐾
“First time leaving my senior dog alone for a week. We decided to try a sitter on Rover, and we are happy with our dog and with the care that Jessie V. put into caring for Sammi, and for the house. At 15 years old, Sammi has messes, and I am grateful for Jessie's care in caring for Sammi, and for the condition of the carpet and floors. When we saw Sammi after being away for a week, he seemed happy, well-fed, and the room smelled clean. Thanks, Jessie!”
“We are very grateful for Jade’s thoughtfulness and care! We have two little doggies with very different personalities/energies and Jade is quite attuned to both of them. Jade is also very communicative, kind, and professional—and clearly very skilled with caring for animals.”
“Carla was able to help take care of our 11 week old pup with short notice! Our pup Peaches was well-cared for and Carla was very kind in forgiving our little landshark for all her puppy biting. Thanks Carla!”

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.
Shan is absolutely incredible! She looked after our three cats while we were away on vacation, and we could not have asked for a better sitter. She is extremely responsible, always on time, and completely proactive with all of her tasks. Her communication was fantastic throughout the entire stay, giving us total peace of mind. Not only did she care for our cats with so much love, but she also left our home clean and even help with the plants. We highly recommend Shan and will absolutely rebook her in a heartbeat!
Kristen is a very attentive, communicative, thoughtful pet sitter. She did 2 drop ins a day for a little over a week making sure to let me know if there were any issues that came up. I felt at ease having Kristen as my pet sitter for Termite on such short notice. Termite was very well taken care of!
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!
Maddy has been fabulous, thoughtful, and very caring sitter for my two cats when I had to be away for kinda-last min away plan. She didn’t even hesitate to provide an extra look and care when one of my cat didn’t seem very well and I can’t express enough how much I appreciated her warm care given to my cats. She was also very communicative and there was no confusion for anything while I was away.
Sanuthi is incredible and very reliable. We have two finicky 12 year old cats and any changes stress out Simba. She was very patient, willing to meet him within his comfort level. She kept in contact through the visits, letting me know of any issues she was seeing, willing to change the plan on the fly. Kitties were in good hands and I am so very grateful for Sanuthi!
This was my first time booking with Polina, and she did great! Our kitty was well cared for, we came home to a happy cat and a clean bathroom. Polina followed all the instructions with attention and really spent time to interact with our cat vs just cleaning and feeding. The daily reports and videos were helpful and gave us peace of mind. I do recommend Polina!
Heather is an outstanding sitter! She provides consistently thoughtful care and attention each time. Her detailed Rover notes and empathetic approach to pets brings so much peace of mind while away. Thanks Heather for making our sweet girl feel loved and safe always, we are grateful for you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Newport on Rover is $27.75 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 12,953 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Newport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newport. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
