About: As a pet owner and part-time sitter, I have plenty of experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles alike! I’m familiar with and comfortable caring for a variety of breeds, big and small. I currently work part-time mornings, leaving me available most afternoons to do pet care! I tend to be available past 2pm throughout the week. I tailor my drop-in visits to each pet’s individual needs, ensuring every animal is cared for to the fullest. This can include feeding and watering, administering certain medications, potty breaks, cleaning litter boxes, or playtime!
About: As an experienced pet sitter trusted by family and friends, I provide attentive care for cats and dogs. With a natural bond that animals love, I bring the same affection to my two pets at home. I have plenty of time. Available 3 to 4 days a week and weekends. Opportunities for overnight, evening and mornings are open. Walking and play time. I can come to your home for your loved ones can feel comfortable and safe. I do have a dog that’s very friendly and loves visitors if that works for you too.
About: I have taken care of pets from puppies to 100+ lbs since I was a young child. I have experience with petsitting my families pets and bathing them. I work part-time, only from 4.5-8 hour shifts with breaks in between. Scheduling a few days in advance works best and anytime on my off days! I am in an upstairs apartment, fenced in. I have a medium sized fur baby to keep your pet company or if needed can keep separated. I have a crate if needed and toys for them to play with. Pets are allowed on the couch/bed. I offer bath time as well for a small extra fee!
About: Hi! I’m Dusty — full-time dog lover, part-time treat dispenser, and your pup’s next favorite human. I share my home (and heart) with two Australian Cattle Dogs: Leia the bossy big sister and Griff the chaotic little brother. They keep me on my toes and have trained me quite well in the art of fetch, belly rubs, and spotting squirrels from 300 yards. Whether your dog needs a cozy place to stay, a midday stroll, or just someone who understands that “zoomies” are a way of life — I’ve got you covered. I’m experienced, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my pack (yes, baby talk included). Let’s make some tails wag! Growing up, I fostered senior dogs, walked pups for elderly neighbors, and even cared for a retired military K9 until he was reunited with his handler — so your dog is in good hands, and likely good company too. I’m currently working full-time 40 hours during the week. I have time after 6 PM during the week and all day during the weekend. Preferably early mornings. I want to make sure every animal I care for is comfortable And get to know their personality and what they enjoy so it can be an enriching experience for them and not stressful.
About: I give every dog the same care and attention as if they were my own. I'm experienced with all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I'm patient, observant, and great at following routines. I'm especially comfortable with puppies and senior dogs. I also provide regular photo and text updates so pet parents feel at ease while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, especially on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays, when I have the flexibility to dedicate quality time to walks, play, feeding, and companionship. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection—not just quick check-ins. Your dog will never feel rushed or overlooked. I currently have a Goldendoodle, so I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and a calm environment. In my home, dogs are treated like family—safe, supervised, and given plenty of love, playtime, and structured walks. I maintain a clean space and follow each dog’s individual routine closely. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. Also, my apartment has a dog park.
About: I raised my own dog until he passed at the age of 13. I take care of my friends dogs whenever they go away or need a sitter quick. I’m new to the Dothan area. I’m a current medical student in my 3rd year at VCOM so looking for things to do on the weekend! I work at the that can local hospitals so weekends are ideally what I’m looking to fill in right now. Shoot me a text and I’ll be more than willing to talk about availability! I have no current dogs. I live in a manufactured home that can I can care for a dog in. Lots of area for walks!
About: I've taken care of different breeds & size dogs for 6 years now. I love animals & want to help take care of them. I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs, & ages in between. I work full time at my job. Weekends are best for me, but I can stay somewhere during the week, as long as it's not too far from my work. I also can go during my lunch to let dogs out to potty &/or check on them, as long as it's not too far from my work. I have a semi fenced in back yard. I have one dog outside & he has come inside sometimes, but hes not completelyhouse trained & I have one cat inside. They are both around 3 years old.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals ranging from dogs, cats, chickens, and lizards! We’ve had animals in my own family for as long as i can remember we currently have a dog and chickens and maybe cows soon! I have a personal love for animals! If for some reason my dog Oliver doesn’t get along with your pet I live in a separated part of the house so it will be very easy for me to keep them out of contact. I’m currently working full time but i’m off most saturdays and mondays, and then just whenever else they do not schedule me! I’m very communicative and will work with you as best I can! I care for my own pets with love and care making sure they always have what they need and definitely things they want too lol! In others homes I would show them the same love as my own pets and follow whatever instructions left to a T.

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 Newton 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Newton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
