“I have a 17 year old cat that has some quirky behavior. Katelyn not only accommodated all of her needs, but went above and beyond. She was very diligent about showing up on time twice a day for two weeks and doing more than I asked each time. She also left the house in great condition.”
“Loved having Cassie spend time with our dogs while we were away. I loved the pictures and report card of their time together. Cassie communicated with us so well! I had no worries about my fur babies because of her care.”
“Jessica L. is absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my scaredy-cat and even got some adorable happy pictures. I’ll be a repeat customer, next time I leave town, and I’m recommending her to everyone I know who might need their pets taken care of. 10 stars!”
“At the very last minute I asked and Heidi responded with a "yes" to check on my dog while I attended a funeral. I was so grateful. She sent me photos and let me know how things were going. I would love to have her check on Layla again. I highly recommend her!”
About: Throughout my life, I’ve always had a dog to look out for, whether it was my own or someone else’s. I have been dog sitting off and on for the last 5-6 years and I currently live with a dog that I take a lot of responsibility for. I am currently a full time student at Clemson University, but my classes are set up in a way where I can and will check in on my pets every 6 hours or less. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! As of right now I am a full time student at lander and I have a part time job mostly on the weekends. If needed for house sitting or check-ins, I can make time before or after my classes to go check on the pets and make sure they are well taken care of. In my own home, I make sure to dedicate some time throughout the day to go outside and play around with my dog to ensure she gets some love and social activity. Whenever I stay or check in at my clients home, I first check on all of the pets and make sure they’re happy and healthy.
“Marissa did an amazing job! She showed up exactly when she said she would, spent quality time with the pups, and sent plenty of updates and pics of her visit with them. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Over the past three years I have worked at two boarding/training/daycare facilities for dogs. My love of animals is why I’m getting my undergraduate degree at Clemson University for Animal Veterinary Science, pre - vet. I love caring for animals and making sure all their needs are met. I am currently a student at Clemson University, I have classes on Monday-Friday. Monday and Tuesday I have one class so those days are very free, Wednesday-Friday I have two classes so I’m not as available for long stays, but walks/drop ins I’m still very free! Saturdays and Sundays I’m free all day! At my home we have two labs, one is 15 years old so she requires special care such as wearing a diaper when not on a walk. I am very flexible with what I can provide when requested from the pet parent. I also currently have a Doberman puppy so I am very comfortable with taking care of puppy needs or just energetic dogs in general.
About: I have lived with pets my entire life, I have a 5 year old dog currently. Additionally, I’ve pet sat for friends and family frequently when they leave for trips and used to help my grandmother foster kittens! I’m currently a senior at Clemson with a light schedule so I can drop by before/after classes with ease! I have time in the mornings and afternoons for walks and am available most days for pet sitting! I have a very active dog and am used to playing or walking outside for enrichment time. I grew up around cats and dogs and am very fond of both! Whether you need someone to play with them or just keep them company I would love to meet your fur baby.
“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”
About: i’ve had pets my whole life and even grew up with 4 dogs of various breeds and ages, as well as completed an internship at a local vet taking care of dogs and cats. I have done animals sitting since I was very young and am confident in my ability to ensure safety and fun for your pet. I am currently working part time and have most late morning to early afternoons free to dedicate to your furry friends for any services needed! I have lots of experience with dogs and cats of my own and their needs. Should your pet or you have any specifications or needs I am happy to do so. I love taking photos of animals and would love to share them with you if should wish during my time with your pet!
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals ranging from small and large dogs, cats, snakes, and lizards. I am reliable to get the job done and more. I currently am a full time student at Clemson University with a reliable car and am willing and able to work around my class schedule. I am very good at following directions and will always ask questions when needed. I will be attentive to any accommodations your pet may require. I strongly believe in treating your pet how I would want to be treated.
About: I’ve had dogs of all sizes and cats all my life! I’ve raised puppies, dogs with behavioral problems, I’ve even done training. I always loved dog sitting my neighbors dogs and going on walks and taking a pup along with me! I am currently a college student (go Clemson!) so before and after my classes I have all the free time to come care for your pet! I love walks, and I even have a dog park in my neighborhood! I know how to use harnesses on dogs (and cats haha!) and took training classes for knowing how to train and correctly walk and deal with dogs and puppies!
About: I grew up on a farm, so I’ve had the opportunity to work with many different kinds of animals. Since that time, I’ve rescued a few cats and dogs with mental and physical issues. I’ve learned that each animal has their own personality and needs and am happy to provide what they need. I have a flexible schedule. I am able to give your pet the time they need. Whether it’s a potty break, playtime, or some cuddles. I am able to follow instructions. I understand how important it is to keep your pet on a routine, especially when you are not home.
“Erine did a great job assuring me with timeliness, clear communication, plenty of photos and videos. I was extremely happy to have someone take good care of my dog and make sure that she received plenty of activity. Very responsive with flexible time schedules. I would definitely be booking with this sitter in the future. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Growing up, I regularly pet-sat for neighbors and members of my community, providing responsible and affectionate care. Additionally, as a dedicated volunteer for Oconee Humane Society, I gained hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments, ensuring their comfort and well-being. My passion, reliability, and experience make me a trustworthy pet sitter who will guarantee that every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently a college student at Clemson University so my availability depends on the flexibility of my class schedule during weekdays. Conversely, on weekends I have greater availability. I prioritize safety and trust in every aspect of my pet sitting service. With years of experience caring for animals—including working at the Humane Society and raising my own four cats and my 1 dog—I understand the importance of creating a secure, comfortable environment. I follow strict safety protocols and maintain open communication with pet owners to ensure peace of mind. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority, and I am committed to providing loving, reliable care every time.
About: I grew up around cats and dogs and have cared for them my whole life. I enjoy going on long walks and playing with cats until they get tired of chasing a feather on a string. I am currently a graduate student so my schedule is very flexible and can work around what your needs are. Anytime you need me to stop by I can try my hardest to be available. I am willing to do whatever your pets want to do that day! I can take them on walks, spend a day at the dog park, or just give them the attention they deserve!
About: I’ve been around all different kinds of animals my whole life! I’ve been taking care of my close friends and families animals for as long as I can remember! This includes experience in house sitting and caring for the animals needs! Animals can’t speak to us verbally so it is important to pay attention to their needs and wants. I take animals seriously and treat all of them how I do mine! I am a server at a restaurant and have a very flexible schedule! My shifts are typically at night and last about 5 hours! I typically have my days open! My personal pets are very spoiled! I have two dogs and I take them on walks, to the park, on the boat, etc. I snuggle them any minute I can! They are my main priority- I treat their needs as I do my own. This also transfers over to my clients pets! Like I’ve previously stated, I treat all animals as I do my own!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Newry
Nicole did an excellent job of caring for my shy and sometimes ornery Siamese cat. She was even able to get pics of her in her favorite chair which is great because often she will hide under the couch when company is visiting. I would not hesitate to use her again.
Victoria was wonderful! We met her prior to starting her drop in visits and she familiarized herself with walk procedures. Every day I received an update on her visit along with pictures of our happy doggos which made going away easier on my guilt. We came home to two happy pups.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Newry is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 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 November 2026, there are 1,182 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Newry. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Newry. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
