“I was looking for some help with a very elderly kitty ~ so he really needs someone who can be very gentle with him, and at the same time very competent. Jessi is absolutely both. I would definitely call her again! Also, I had to search at the very last moment, which turned out to be no problem!”
“Iris is amazing! 🤩 Five stars all the way! I had to go out of town right when a historical snow storm hit, making it very difficult for Iris to check in on my kitty. She went above and beyond to ensure Luna was looked after and safe during the arctic blast. Iris was super communicative and helped to put my mind at ease during a stressful time. Thank you Iris!”
“Rosie was amazing! She was attentive to my cat’s needs and followed all my instructions for care to a tee. She is loving and caring toward animals and her ability to connect with my pet’s needs was outstanding. I loved the daily pictures she posted. It made me feel less anxious while I was away.”
“Stevie-Rae is an excellent pet sitter! She took such great care of our cats while we were away. We will definitely reach out for her services again. Highly recommend!”
“Cheyauna was the absolute best sitter ever!!! We were unbelievably happy our kitty was in her care for over a week! She made us feel super reassured and we were extremely confident that not only our baby, but our place was well taken care of. She thinks of the little things and is very thorough, professional, and communicative. Absolutely recommend her!!!”
“Margaret is always great to work with. She sends us regular updates while we’re away and takes the time to give our cat some pets, even though he is often very difficult to find. We would definitely recommend her.”
About: Hello! I’m a stay at home mom with a lively 2 year old, and two big pups of my own! We have tons of time during the day for dogs walks or drop in visits. I’m a full-time stay at home mom, so besides our routine nap time (11-1), we have tons of time during the day to spend with your pup! I have a big fenced in backyard where we do lots of running around and playing with our dogs. We’re also a very active family and go on frequent walks throughout the day.
About: I have owned dogs, cats, and even reptiles for most of my life so I understand how difficult it can be to find someone reliable and trustworthy to babysit or just walk my fur babies. Life is always busy, so I joined rover to help my fellow owners. I work part time, so my schedule is a little different each week but I will work with u as much as I can. Fridays and Saturdays I cannot work throughout the summer. I have an automatic feeder for my own cat at home always making sure she’s fed and also a water fountain so she always has access to water. My dog always has water available and had a scheduled feed and outside time
“~Hello, my name is Elizabeth and this is my story. I am an all white, American Short Hair Cat. I tend to be very shy and I like gentle, quiet people. Most people think I'm pretty, but you'd have to be the judge of that. My human mother (who I love dearly), is a bit over-protective (And that's putting it mildly.) I think "neurotic" would be a better word to describe her. She had a lot of anxiety about going on vacation and leaving me with a Cat Nanny. And I mean a LOT of anxiety. She was even driving my Dad crazy. Little did we know that things were about to change... when Kimberly came into our lives. Immediately we could tell she was a warm, kind person who genuinely loves animals. ~Kimberly took care of me and stayed overnight at my house. She fed me, gave me my meds and made sure my water bowls were clean and full. She took care of my litter box and kept it nice and clean, just the way I like it. She cuddled me and combed me the whole time. Boy, did I feel the love ! We also had a great time posing for all those photos we sent to Mom and Dad during the weekend. We even brought the mail in. ~But best of all, it was so nice having company at my house. When I woke up in the morning, Kimberly was there to give me my breakfast. And that's not an easy task because I have to eat very slowly due to my sensitive stomach. (Believe me, you don't want to see a cat lose her breakfast. It's not pretty.) But Kimberly was very patient and took good care of me. Ok, so I really need to apologize for getting her up, way too early in the morning, (Sorry Kimberly), but we did go back to sleep for a while. ~Now I don't want to hurt my Mom's feelings (I kind of missed her a little while she was away) but I sure had a lot of fun with Kimberly ! It was a great "Girls Weekend." And I just can't wait to see her again. In fact, both Mom and Dad were so delighted with Kimberly, that they are now planning their next vacation; a winter CRUISE. And the BEST PART?...I get to be with my new best friend, Kimberly. Bon Voyage, Mom and Dad! Have a great time !”
About: I love pets and house keeping and would love to help you with yours! I take pride in offering thorough care to put you at ease when you go away. I look forward to working for you and your pets! I work a part time job that is extremely flexible and allows me to work from home, meaning I can look after your pets in the exact way you want! I can spend as little or as much time as you want with them! I want your pets to feel like they are on vacay with me! I keep to them on their same routine while also giving them a little extra care since you are away. That way they won't be too sad while you are gone.
“Jen took care of my pet rabbit for a week and a half and I could not have asked for a better caretaker! From feeding to exercise, Jen was on top of it! I especially appreciated how great her communication was--she always promptly responded and sent photos every day. At one point Annie ran out of food and Jen had no problem going out for more and she even cleaned up her cage! Jen is easily the best sitter I've had on Rover and is my #1 choice in the area!”
“Victoria is an incredible pet sitter!! She watched my cat Glinda while I was away and immediately put me at ease with how thoughtful and communicative she was. I can tell she really cares about the pet she is sitting for and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy. I would highly recommend and will certainly be hiring Victoria again.”
“My kitty was quite elderly, with some special needs. So when I had a last-minute need for a drop-in visit, I wanted to be extra sure to find someone very reliable, willing to do meds, and very gentle with the kitty. Emily is all that, and more! I would happily call on her again.”
About: I don't have any fancy certifications, just a true love for animals. I genuinely enjoy hanging out with pets and making sure they feel happy. I work full-time but I am available most days before 7:30 AM and after 4:30 PM, except for W & F. Let's coordinate a schedule that works! I'll visit your home everyday to feed your pets, refresh their water, take them for walks, and spend quality time playing and keeping them company.
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages! In my personal life I have 2 dogs of my own, and I take care of my mom’s dogs! I have 2 young dogs and my mom’s dogs are older. Professionally I have worked a few vet offices for the last 2 years. I also have experience at doggy daycare and boarding! Right now I will have most afternoons free during the week to take your dog on a walk or check in on them! I love spending time with dogs! Taking care of pets is something I am very passionate about, having 6 pets of my own. I am very caring and want to show your dog(s) the same love that you show them everyday!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Newport East
Aaron was absolutely fantastic! From our first meeting Dylan ("the cat") walked right over to meet him-- which he never does even with folks he's met before. I knew from that moment that Aaron was going to be great. Each day he sent me several photos of Dylan along with a report on his eating, hairballs (ewww), etc.and took the time to play with him. I can't recommend Aaron highly enough, except that I hope he will always have an opening in his schedule for Dylan & me.-- SAS, Newport, RI
Alison was phenomenal!! Our sweet kitty, Skye, loved her and warmed right up to her! Alison did exactly what we asked and was very reliable. She sent great pictures and stories while we were away. They kept us in touch with our little sweetie! We would book her again in a heartbeat!!😻
Iris was FANTASTIC!!! She was easy to communicate with and loves your animals like her own. She is attentive to little things like an open window in the rain so your place is equally taken care. Could not be happier with our experience - we got so many great photos of our kitty enjoying playtime and treats while we were gone!
Stevie-Rae did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. I felt 100% confident that they were well taken care of. She sent pictures each day to show that they warmed up to her even though they are very, very shy around people they don’t know. I highly recommend her to you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Newport East on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 958 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newport East. 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newport East. On Rover:

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 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.
