“This past weekend was my first time using Rover and as long as Katelyn is available, it won't be my last. Katelyn is dependable, a great communicator, friendly....nothing but good things to say. Our cat was very relaxed and happy when we returned home.”
“I’ve asked Reagan multiple times to watch my Dakota and she’s done an amazing job every time! Shows up on time, sends plenty of pics and updates, she even cleaned up after him all week! 10/10 every time!”
“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.”
About: Experienced veterinary assistant with a year of clinical practice and a lifelong passion for animal care. Reliable, seasoned pet sitter with extensive experience providing compassionate, professional attention to all kinds of furry friends. As an Animal Science student at Clemson University, I balance my studies with a passion for animal care. My schedule leaves me plenty of time outside of class to provide your pets with the play and attention they need. My year of experience as a veterinary assistant has given me a sharp eye for potential hazards and a deep understanding of canine mischief. You can rest easy knowing I'm well-prepared to keep your pets safe and entertained.
“Justine is so nice and knew what it was like to look after a cat who can be a challenge at times! We're new to the area, so was thrilled to find someone flexible and reliable. Since she works at a veterinarian office, I booked an appt for my cat the following week. Only wish she did overnight stays as my cat needs the attention/company if I'm gone longer than two days.”
“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!”
“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 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.
About: What sets me apart is the level of patience, attentiveness, and truly hands-on care I give every pet. I’m used to managing high-maintenance, high-love dogs, so I understand routines, health needs, and creating a calm, safe environment. I’m extremely detail-oriented with feeding schedules, medications, and cleanliness, and I’m always tuned in to a pet’s body language and comfort level. I have experience with: puppies, sensitive or anxious dogs, senior care, and daily photo updates - so you always feel connected. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine over Christmas break because I have a lot of free time and flexibility. I’m home with my three Frenchies, so I’m already in a consistent rhythm of feeding, playtime, walks, and attention throughout the day. Adding another pet into that routine is easy and natural. Since I’m not in classes during break, I’m able to give pets tons of time, structure, and supervision. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule, getting outside for exercise, or just providing comfort and company, I can be fully present and attentive. During the holidays, caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — I genuinely have the time and availability to make it a priority. Whether pets are in my home or yours, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. At my home, pets join my three friendly Frenchies for supervised play, consistent feeding times, potty breaks, and plenty of attention—especially since I have lots of free time over Christmas break. In a client’s home, I follow your exact schedule and house rules so your pet feels secure in their familiar space. In both settings, I stay attentive, communicative, and treat every pet like my own.
About: Hi everyone! I have been pet sitting for about 7 years! I have watched dogs in my own home and in other people's homes. I have also watched a number of cats in other peoples home. I have watched dogs of all ages, young and old. I have also watched multiple dogs at once. I have my own dog that is 6 years old. I also do have a kitten, but she can put away in her own space when your friend is at my home. I am also willing to give daily walks. I will make sure that your pets are well taken care of. I hope that you will consider me when you need a pet sitter or dog walker! During the day, I work full time. This means my availability is limited to the evenings or weekends. I work full time, so I am available after 6:00pm everyday. I have weekends off!. I will visit any pets in the evenings during the week! I have an area of grass that the dogs would be able to potty and walk around on. We can also go on walks around the neighborhood!
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life, both big and small. I understand the patience and commitment when taking care of dogs. As a college student I spend a lot of times away from my own dogs, so I can confirm that I will provide a lot of love and care for your furry friend! I am currently a full time college student but have free days Sunday, Monday, Friday and Wednesday (all day). However, I am willing to work with your needs and find time on Tuesdays and Thursdays after 5pm. I can come to your home and care for your dog how you please. I love taking walks, so I can provide some extra fun an exercise for your dog!
About: I love dogs more than anything and took care of my childhood dog for more than 11 years. I also have experience with dog walking. I recognize the love and attention dogs need and am more than happy to provide that. I am a college student with no outside responsibilities so my schedule is fairly free and flexible. I’m excited to help out whenever you need. When I’m around dogs I give them all my attention and love. Seeing them happy makes me happy and I’m thorough with taking care of them. I keep their routine consistent and follow all instructions given carefully. I will also send updates and treat your pet like family.
About: I have approached every single dog owner I have ever seen in order to ask them to pet their dog. My friends and family have always called me a dog whisperer because I’m usually able to even pet the shyest of dogs. I am looking to work part time. I am about to go back to college, but I am free every day except Sunday mornings (church) and Monday night (small groups). I have two Australian shepherds whom I have helped to train. I take them on at least one walk a day and we have a fenced in yard which they can go out into multiple times a day. I help to feed them and take care of them on a daily basis.
About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a dog in my life. I am always willing to make time for a four-legged companion, and because I'm athletic/energetic, I enjoy walking and playing with your dog. I have 20 years of sitting experience, five on Rover, and I've worked in professional pet boarding and training at a boutique kennel (Cuddly Critters in Greenville). I am a schedule oriented person who can easily adapt to other people's/animal's schedules. Pets always make the best companions, and I want to get to know as many as possible. I have had several fulltime jobs throughout my life, but I doubt any will be as fun as watching your dog. Recently, my career has revolved around higher education, so anything that can make a dent in my student loans is a plus! Happy to hear any questions/special requests you might have. Please feel free to contact me for anything. I'm currently working part time, but it is all remote work done via laptop. So all I need is wifi and I'm good to go. I can commit most of the 24+hrs directly to your dog. I always create a fun and safe environment whenever I'm around "our better halves" (lol). I know how to calm down anxious dogs, but also keep up with any sheep dogs you might have lol.
“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.”

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 October 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 October 2026, there are 1,199 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
