“I love the peace of mind I have leaving our pups with Sage and knowing that they will be in great care! She sends pics and updates throughout their stay. She's knowledgeable about our Frenchie's limitations. Sage is flexible with our schedules and our pups seem to make themselves right at home when we drop them off. So glad we found such a reliable sitter!”
“Chelsea was absolutely amazing with our puppy Nora. She always gave her all the attention she needed and loved Nora like she was her dog. Her family was also amazing and helped Nora get much needed socialization and playtime. I would absolutely recommend Chelsea and her wonderful family to anyone in need of any services she can offer for your pet!”
“They were amazing with my Bodhi, he seemed so happy in pictures and everything. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing a sitter. Was also very accommodating for it being last minute.”
“Cassidy was so great taking care of my pup over thanksgiving! She sent update photos and videos of him daily and her personal dogs provided great socialization and playtime for my pup! Would absolutely book with her again!”
“Teresa and her husband are very accommodating and flexible with my early morning drop offs or late evening pickups. My pups enjoy playing with their own dogs and always look happy in their updates and when I pick them up 😊”
“Ashley did a great job with our babies. She was understanding of the needs of my two very different types of dogs. She communicated with me during my time away and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up.”
“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”
“Payton is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! She took care of my baby just like he’s her own. She communicated consistently and sent photos each day. Her pup also gets along well with other pups, and made my baby feel right at home. She was able to give Bane the love and care he needed while I was gone out of town and I’m grateful for her. He had play time, cuddles, and plenty of walks. I HIGHLY recommend choosing Payton to care for you baby in your absence.”
“Hannah took amazing care of Bella and treated her like one of their own. I received daily updates along with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It could tell Bella was happy and comfortable. The communication was excellent, and I highly recommend Hannah.”
“Jessica was fantastic with our two puppies. Took extra care to make sure our more apprehensive puppy was comfortable with his new home away from home!! Provided meaningful updates so that we didn't have to worry about our dogs. Allowed us to choose whether we wanted our dogs kenneled. Overall very positive experience and would allow Jessica to watch our dogs again without any hesitation!”
“Kimberly has a very clean and welcoming home. She also has a small, friendly dog, along with cats and chickens, and it is clear she is truly an animal lover. She was very attentive to Lulu and made me feel comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. Kimberly mentioned that Lulu was her first Rover sit, but honestly, it felt like she had been doing this for a while. She sent photos and videos, provided reassurance, and kept me updated throughout Lulu’s stay. I highly recommend Kimberly! I left in a rush because I did not account for the time zone change while heading back home, but I wanted to make sure she knew how much I appreciated her watching Lulu.”
About: I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each animal’s routine, personality, and comfort level. I also have experience caring for geriatric pets and animals that need medication, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and close attention to detail. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, basic reinforcement of good habits, or extra care, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I am already used to being responsible, organized, and consistent with my time. I make sure pets receive dependable care, attention, walks, feeding, medication if needed, and companionship without feeling rushed. I understand that animals do best with routine, so I work hard to follow each owner’s instructions and keep their pet’s schedule as normal and comfortable as possible. I focus on keeping their routine as normal, safe, and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medication, potty breaks, crate use, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets have a clean, calm environment, fresh water, regular attention, and plenty of patience. I also pay close attention to behavior, energy level, appetite, and comfort so I can quickly notice if something seems off. My goal is to give each pet dependable care while giving the owner peace of mind.
“Stephen was reliable, friendly, and highly professional, providing top-notch care for my pup. As this was my first time leaving my dog with someone else, I was initially hesitant, but after meeting Stephen, I immediately felt confident that my pup was in great hands. Throughout the stay, Stephen communicated effectively and sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me real peace of mind. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. I’ll absolutely be returning without reservation, this was a wonderful experience from start to finish.”
“We have used a lot of sitters in the past, Savannah and her family were hands down the best we have experienced. They were very flexible when our trip plans were delayed and went out of their way to assist us and our two dogs. We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“I could tell from the pictures Rachael shared with me of Buster Brown that he was very happy spending the weekend with her family. I think he even got to share a princess tent with her daughter!! I felt like Rachael and family loved my sweet boy and missed him after I picked him. It’s great to know your best friend is so well taken care of!”
“Jennifer was great with my little buddy ‘Valentine’. She shared photos throughout his stay and sent him home with a bag of bacon strips. (A bag he chewed through later that night to indulge himself - caught him with a strip hanging out his mouth!!🤪)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 73 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
100% of Newton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Newton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Newton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Newton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Newton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
