“Josh and samantha were amazing!!!!! They accommodated a last-minute request for multiple walks while my family went to Disneyland. They were attentive, responsive, took great care of our dog. Best Rover experience we've had!!”
“Krystal took AMAZING care of our kitties. We appreciated the detailed updates and how she never gave up on getting one of our more shy cats to cozy up to her while we were away. When we came home we could tell they were just as happy and cared for as when we left them.”
About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood — dogs, bunnies, horses, and even llamas. I’ve had everything from boxers to Frenchies and chihuahuas, so I’m great with all personalities, from shy pups to big goofy puppies. I genuinely treat every pet like family and focus on creating a loving, safe space while you’re away. I work remotely on an East Coast schedule, so I’m typically finished by early afternoon. This gives me availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. Evenings and weekends are flexible, and I’m able to spend quality time with your dog. I care for pets in your home by following your routine — feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep your pet comfortable, happy, and cared for while also keeping your home clean and safe. I send regular photos and updates so you feel confident they’re doing great.
About: As a certified energy healer of people and pets (especially dogs and cats), I deeply connect with them and feel and understand their love and empathy. I truly believe that they are angels and therapists and I love to spend time with them. I look forward to receiving your trust to love and care for them. I have a flexible schedule and can work around the time that I am caring for my family and pets etc. during my available hours. It depends on which service is requested while always strictly adhering to Rover policies as well as the client’s needs. Will send regular updates and photos.
“Vi took excellent care of my cat while I was traveling and is an absolute professional! From her flexibility to arrange a meet up over hectic travel schedules, to her attention to detail around care instructions, Vi made me feel comfortable that my cat was well loved and cared for while I was away. Thank you!!”
“I am very happy with my first experience with Rover and Trey. I will definitely be using him in the near future. Dependable and on time! Very accommodating on very short notice.”
About: Hello! My name is Thomas and I'm a long time dog owner. Having grown up with dogs, I'm happy to take care of yours as needed. Having graduated from USC two years ago, I am fortunate enough to be in a position where I can work remotely. Throughout the day I often take walks around the peninsula/seashore to get a break from work. I work remotely so I often find myself walking outside to get fresh air as needed. Let me know how I can fit into your schedule! My family has owned a couple different dogs in my lifetime! Happy to help out as needed / provide specific care. I am no stranger to working with dogs who require a certain routine / diet.
About: Since the day I started talking, all I did was ask my parents for a dog. When I turned 9, that dream came true. Buddy was not just a dog, he was an essential part of our family. For fifteen wonderful years we created special memories, inside jokes, nicknames, and an unconditional love from not only us to him but from him to us. In his final years Buddy developed dementia, senior care was never something I had ever put much thought in to. As unfortunate as it is our babies won’t outlive us, giving them the absolute best and most comfortable lives we possibly can is so important. Being a child myself when Buddy came in to our lives, I have true experience with seeing a dog from their first and best days, all the way to the end. These fur babies are just that, our babies, and trusting a stranger with your baby is no small thing! The importance of being not only safe, but loving and kind is something I can always guarantee. The hole that has been left since Buddy left us feels just that much smaller when I get to be around another furry friend 🤍 I work a pretty flexible schedule, I waitress in Newport Beach and am in training to be a Pilates instructor as well. While my schedule does tend to vary, I’m usually in the restaurant Sunday-Wednesday nights with Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays completely off! I live in an apartment, however it is walking distance from the beach and other walking trails. I was raised to leave a place nicer than when you arrived, and between that and my clean freak gene your space will be in good hands! The more instruction for your dog’s routine and information on what will make them happy the better.
“Roxanne was able to help with my pup on super short notice while we were away, which we really appreciated. She was very responsive and replied right away to messages. We loved getting updates and photos during her visits—it gave us great peace of mind. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again next time we’re in town!”
About: To say that I love animals would be a tremendous understatement! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I've had dogs for as long as I can remember and currently share my home with my goofy retired racing greyhound, Astrid. I've worked with animals in farm and zoo settings, and I have experience working at an emergency veterinary hospital in a client-facing role. Those roles have strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, patient and reliable care with clear communication. My schedule allows me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care for pets. I know how important consistency is, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I will always focus on providing consistency, companionship, and attentive care while following your pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, medications, and daily habits.
“Lily was great! Was able to step in on short notice. Our Taco is a little nervous around new people and Lily's energy was great and he was able to warm up to her while our family was away on vacation. We highly recommend Lily to anyone, and would certainly have her come check on our pets if the need would ever arise again. Thanks, Lily and Rover.com!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid! My family has always had pets, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their furry family members which I take pride in! Since moving to California, I have missed that aspect of my life and would treat your pets as family! I have experience in bathing, walking, training, and of course, playing, with pets! I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I’m completely available and flexible for whatever service you may need! I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pet to hang out in! I also am very active and love walking, so your pet will get the outside time he/she needs!
About: Dog mom to a 7 yr old golden retriever and active therapy dog volunteer. Years of experience pet sitting and a lifelong love of dogs. I work full remote Monday-Friday. I also live an active lifestyle outside of work hours, consisting of multiple walks daily, frequent hikes, beach trips, and trips to the dog park. A typical day with my own dog consists of a morning walk/breakfast and a lunch time walk. After work, we like to get our exercise in by going for a hike, long walk, fetch, dog park, beach, etc. Then come home for dinner and cuddles. Since I work from home in a small apartment, I am always aware and attentive to what is going on. I have a dog of my own, so frequent walks and potty breaks for him are built into my work schedule. I have an extremely flexible work schedule, making me always available for your pets needs.
About: Pet sitter in Newport. Quite new to Rover with little experience here now, but I’ve also looked after my own pets always. I’m reliable and calm. I rescued my cat after she was abandoned by ex neighbor and she’s a happy indoor cat now. Flexible schedule and I can come any time of the day. Available most days. Newport Beach, working mainly locally. Send me a message, thank you. For boarding I’m often home during the day too, but sometimes out. Let me know how anything specific you’d like me to do. I will take care of your pets and make sure they’re happy, safe and healthy.
About: I have grown up with my dog since fourth grade. I did the potty training, picking the poop, walks and more. As a college student, I would be homesick primarily because I miss my dog. I will cherish your pet with as much love as I have. I will find so much joy in watching your pet. I am currently on summer break therefore have several free time to spend with your pup. I will devote time and energy to give your dog love! I am available to drive to your home so your pet feels more safe. I will provide your pet with love by walking him/her, feeding and giving all the belly rubs the dog desires.
About: Hello and welcome! I’m Kat, and I’d love to care for your fur baby as if they were my own! I grew up with a Maltipoo and have been pet-sitting for friends and family for the past three years. I also adopted and trained my own cat—yes, cats can be trained! She knows how to sit, give paw, high-five, and more. I have experience with dog walking, feeding, administering medication, and even basic training. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or extra care, I’m here to help! Your pet is my priority! Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, playtime, feeding, and any special care needs while ensuring pets get plenty of attention and companionship. Whether it’s a midday walk, cuddle breaks, or sticking to a pet’s routine, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special care needs. I also provide plenty of cuddles and head/belly rubs, so your fur baby can get all the attention and affection while you’re away. I will keep your home clean and provide updates with photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newport Beach
Marne was fantastic! She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and plenty of pictures, which made it so much easier to relax while we were away. We felt completely comfortable having her in our home, and she took wonderful care of our little guy. She even cleaned up an unexpected hairball surprise, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely book with her again.
Candice was wonderful!!! Both my kitties love her so much! The photos I got made me feel like I was there. And, she went above and beyond to repair a small hole Bunny put in a window screen. I couldn’t ask for a more responsible, sensible, and sensitive pet sitter.
She was a great cat sitter! She was always on time, reliable, and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also brought in our packages and watered our plants, which we really appreciated. Our cat was in great hands, and we'd definitely book with her again!
Another amazing visit from Natasha! Our cats remembered and greeted her immediately, which is the best feeling ever. She’s a great communicator and leaves the best check-in notes and photos. We’re so lucky she could watch the boys again and trust her completely. Thanks Natasha! ❤️

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 August 2026, there are 9,436 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Newport Beach. 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 Beach 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 Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
