“Haley took wonderful care of our cat, Max! I greatly appreciated all of the daily photos and reports from her visits. It was so nice to know that he was well taken care of while we were away from home!”
“Love Rachel!!! She was so quick to respond and respectively adapt to my situation with a smile; and put me at ease immediately. Her photos of my 3 year old black lab Kai are PHENOMENAL and I always feel left out! She has already given me so many training tips and answered a million questions. Kai gets so excited to see her and I am thrilled having someone reliable and experienced giving Kai the quality time and exercise he needs while I am at work. 10/10 recommend!! Just not during Kai's time lol!! Thank you Rachel!!! <3”
“Zarah was great with Loki! I was nervous using Rover due to it being my first time but it turns out to be such a relief because Loki was left in the care of someone who truly loves animals . I definitely plan on having Zarah watch Loki for my next trip.”
“John did a great job taking care of our pets. He was responsive, easy to talk to and genuinely cared for our crew of 2 cats and an energetic dog. We will utilize his services again soon.”
“Allison was amazing!! We hired her to drop in and take care of our pet cat and she did such a great job. She set up a meet and greet to get to know our cat first, and I could tell by the questions that she was asking that she truly cares about animals. Even our skittish cat took to her right away. We felt such peace of mind knowing Allison would be caring for her while we were gone. 5 stars, would definitely book her again!!”
“Katie is a kind sweet person who I trust to be in my home and to take care of my two precious fur babies. She arrived on time stayed the duration of the expected visit time and completed the tasks of which I requested upon scheduling this visit.”
“Isabelle is so sweet and she was great with our boy Boone! We didnt have enough time for her to meet Boone prior to booking so our boy was nervous when she first got there, but she made sure to give him his space and time to warm up to her. It paid off because they spent the evening on the couch together 😊 She followed the schedule we provided and she sent photo and picture updates throughout their time together, which was great. Boone made a new friend so we’ll be sure to book Isabelle again!”
“Caroline is the absolute best. Another sitter cancelled last minute and she was able to step in. She sent SO many pictures and videos of our cats which we loved, we always worry when we’re away and knew after the first day that they were in good hands. She was super communicative and overall the exact type of sitter we’d want. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Maria was amazing! I was hesitant to leave my 2 kittens for 2 days and needed them fed a few times a day....Maria was excellent! She was so caring and attentive with them. The communication and pictures were amazing.... can't wait to use her services again”
“Christina was a total cat whisperer for our two shy senior kitties. She put them at ease like a natural and was an expert with their oral meds. We felt so grateful knowing the kitties were in such skilled and caring hands. Thank you!!”
About: As a longtime dog owner and animal lover, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, dependable and attentive, and I’m especially comfortable with dogs who are shy, nervous or need a little extra time to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, give them plenty of attention and treat them like I would my own. I’m also happy to provide photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for walks and drop-in visits. I’m happy to work with your pet’s regular routine and can provide morning, daytime or evening care depending on your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I’ll carefully follow your instructions and respect your pet’s normal routine, home and boundaries. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes and surroundings, and I’ll take the time to help your pet feel comfortable with me. You can also expect reliable communication, photos and updates during every visit.
About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

“Carlie is FABULOUS! She had quality visits with my two dogs, and provided thorough, insightful honest feedback about how each was doing. One is an elder requiring heart meds. He showed some signs of stress on one of her visits which she described to a T. She had the good judgement to give him a pee and poo break but forego the walk with him. Next visit he was great. Based upon her feedback I felt completely confident that they were in the best possible hands. Carlie is a vet tech, and this added skill/ experience was obvious in how she handled things. She is a woman of kind and gentle temperament and great skill. I could not recommend her more highly. THANK YOU CARLIE!”
About: I’m a teacher, lifelong animal lover, and proud pet owner who understands how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else's care. I treat every animal like they're my own: with patience, attention, and lots of care. I'm detail-oriented, reliable, and always make safety a priority (yes, I'm the person who triple-checks the door!). While this is my first time offering pet care services professionally, I've been trusted for years by family, friends, and neighbors to care for their cats and dogs. I know peace of mind matters, and I'll do everything I can to make both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for. During the summer I have lots of flexibility, with the exception of the first week of August when I’ll be on vacation. As the school year begins toward the end of August, my availability will be before 7:30 AM and after 3:00 PM. If you need someone to care for your pets, feel free to reach out or keep me in mind! I’m happy to offer boarding in my home, but I like to be upfront about a few things so you can decide what’s best for your pet. I have a dog who gets very excited whenever he sees other dogs. He’s friendly, but his excitement can sometimes be overwhelming or intimidating, even if the dogs are separated by a gate or in different areas of the house. I also have a cat, but she typically keeps to herself and will simply hide when visitors are around. I don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is on a leash, just as it is for my own dog. With those things in mind, I’ll do everything I can to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your pet. If your pet would be more comfortable staying in their own home, I’m more than happy to provide drop-in visits or house sitting there as well!
“Kailah has been great with my dogs! I have 2 rescues who are super nervous around new people. This was our 3rd time booking with Kailah, she has been super patient and they are starting to warm up to her. I would recommend Kailah and will definitely be using her services again.”

Caroline took care of my 15 year old cat for the first time and she was wonderful! She thoughtfully listened to all information and took great care of her! She sent lots of pictures and videos, which I appreciate, was super communicative and was patient as my cat got comfortable with her 😊
Saori watched our two dogs in her house and paid home visits to our two cats. Unfortunately, a couple of days into the booking, our dogs started having diarrhea and the female was vomiting. We requested that Saori take them to our vet. Luckily, testing revealed nothing serious, Saori gave the dogs their meds, and they recuperated after fluids at the vet. They got to swim in her pool, went to the dog park, and other adventures. Saori also got the thankless task of cleaning up a mouse carcass that Vinny left, as well as some piles of vomit. Saori went above and beyond when caring for our pets. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Newtown on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,393 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Newtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newtown. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
