“Alyssa was amazing for my dog and me. Highly recommend. I had a last minute business trip and she was able to drop in to save the evening and walk Louie while I was out of town. And it was her first walk with us. She knew just what to ask during the meet and greet and then again right before the walk to make it be a success for her, me and most importantly Louie! Thx!!!!”

“After having a ton of sitters, Olivia is by far the best! She gives such minute detail in her report, and not only fulfillls duties of feline daily living like giving food, water, and cleaning his litter, to the full extent that is requested, she also notices behavioral changes in our pets. I cant reccomend her any more than I do now! She is awesome. I had quite a complex situation to get into my building, and I had the further pressure of having to leave almost immediately, but Olivia was able to help through all that.”

About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments since childhood. I'm comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, and behavioral needs. Neighbors and friends trust me with their most beloved companions. I provide attentive, personalized care and regular photo updates to keep owners connected. I work from home, so pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I have flexibility throughout the day for dog walks, feeding sessions, and playtime. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or afternoon play, I can accommodate your schedule and your dog's needs. My work from home setup means consistent, reliable care without gap. My home is a safe, welcoming space for dogs. I have a fenced yard where dogs can play and exercise safely. I'm experienced managing multiple dogs with different personalities and energy levels. All dogs in my care are supervised closely, with access to water, rest areas, and outdoor time. I maintain a calm, secure environment and follow each owner's specific instructions for feeding, medication, and behavior. Your dog will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own pets.

About: I am a teacher ( and mom) with free time this summer and would love to help care for your dog with walks, play time and overnight care. I have my own 3 year old dog who loves to play with other dogs as well ( but she doesn't have to be included in play or an overnight in your home). Until September I have a flexible schedule and am fairly available weekdays and some weekends with notice. I have an active lifestyle and would enjoy long walks with your dog if needed. I am not offering care in my home at this time. That may change in the future and would depend on the specifics of the dog

About: I'm a musician & nonprofit administrator (WFH) with flexibility in my schedule and a lot of love and care to give! My late dog was reactive and I constantly had to be attuned to her emotional state, so I understand the nuances of dog personalities, though every dog teaches me something new. I have previously fostered dogs as well. I grew up with horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and hamsters, and aspired to be an equine vet once upon a time! I am a freelancing musician and also have an admin job - if I am not away traveling, I am almost always home and flexible with my schedule. My home is very quiet, no other pets, and no kids. It is on the 2nd floor via stairs. There are great walking routes nearby including the river, and we can discuss taking your dog for runs or trail outings depending on your dog's training.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. As a cat owner of two, I’m very familiar with daily feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing changes in behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve also looked after two medium-to-large dogs for friends. This included feeding, walks, playtime, providing companionship, and making sure they stayed on their regular routines while their owners were away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to provide patient, attentive, and loving care so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a part of my everyday life as I care for my two cats. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure they get the attention and care they need. For drop-in visits, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed (including litter box cleaning for cats), provide playtime, affection, and companionship, and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications (if needed), or your pet’s preferences.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Newton Lower Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
