“Debbie is the best sitter! Our dog had a great time with her and she came home happy & healthy. Debbie is very quick with communication and she sent cute pics of our dog to us everyday. We will definitely be returning to Debbie in the future. 🤍”
“Pamela is very easy to work with and put me and my family at rest with her experience and overall awesome personality. We were worried because we don't know how our beloved mutt was going to behave around her. She knows dogs and was not fazed at all by our dog. She kept in touch with us and sent us pictures throughout Pinot's stay with her and she truly loved him, which, again, set us at ease. We're planning to use her again and again. Thanks Pamela!”
“The best Rover experience ever! Tatiana and her family are truly amazing! I honestly think our pups miss all the attention they got from this awesome family. I highly recommend”
“Damaris is amazing!! She took SUCH great care of our dog, and kept us updated with videos and pictures each day. She was very responsive and kind, and we had such peace of mind on our vacation knowing our pup was in good hands! ☺️”
“Kimberly was great! Our dog was so we'll taken care of, I've never seen her this tired from a weekend of non stop fun. Kimberly was even nice enough to give our dog a bath as a nice surprise for us when we picked her up. Definitely would recommend, 10/10!”
“Makenna and Clint could great care of Homer! They took time to play with him and make sure he felt welcome in their home, and had a large fenced in back yard for him to run and play in. We will use them again for sure!”
“Nathan was great! He worked with our last minute appointment and was patient when we had timing changes day of. He helped our puppy get more comfortable with new dogs and people and kept us updated along the way. We felt very comfortable with him.”
“Aubrielle is amazing! This was my very first time boarding my fur babies, so I was nervous. Aubrielle kept me updated with pictures and video, and I can tell they both loved her! Thank you so much!”
About: I have been around bigger dogs my whole life. I have owned pets of my own for the last 12 years. I have pet sat and done dog walking for friends and family more the past decade. I am currently working part time shifts early in the morning, before everyone else gets up and goes in the morning. I am home the rest of the day for lots of love and play. I am in the process if fencing in my yard. In the mean time I am on a farm off the beaten path. I very happy to use leashes, and my dogs are crate trained. And I am always happy to discuss any and all concerns and solutions with you ahead of time!
About: I’ve had my rescued dog for 8 years and a rescued cat for 3 years. I love animals and treat my fur babies like family with all my love and company. I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibilities to accommodate your fur family. I'm usually home with my pets except a few hours at a time to run errands. I have a medium sized dog and a cat at home. They are friendly to new friends. The backyard is unfenced, my dog enjoys running and sniffing around. Your fur-baby will have potty breaks in the backyard supervised and will have so much play time there.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
92% of sitters in Newton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newton. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
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 UT 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
