“Lauren and Wynn took excellent care of our kitties! One of our cats hates strangers but quickly opened up to them (which is always a good sign). Highly recommend!”
“Devynne was nothing short of amazing and went above and beyond what we asked of her! She was able to give our 4 cats much needed love and affection that they needed while we were away for over 2 weeks in Germany and even helped when one of our cats accidentally got locked into one of our rooms. She also helped with cleaning up the cats areas, feeding out fish and our two parrots giving them lots of love and attention! She is nothing short of a superstar pet care taker and we will definitely be using her again and STRONGLY recommend her for caring for your fur family. Thank you so much Devynne!!”
“Andi did a great job sitting for our two kitties while we were out of town! They have complicated food needs and health issues and it set my mind at ease knowing they were being taken care of. We really appreciated the update messages too!”
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“We had an impromptu trip pop up and Nina agreed to stop in to feed our three cats the same day-which relieved a lot of our stress! She stopped in exactly at the time she said she would and provided great updates after the visit! We will be contacting her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Elaine! I recently moved to Cincinnati after graduating from Hanover College this May and am really excited to get into animal-care here! I love dogs and am passionate about animal welfare. I have years of experience between my family’s two dogs, my five foster dogs, and from being an active volunteer at my local humane society. Through my time as a humane society volunteer and staff member I have become comfortable with dogs of all energy levels, breeds, and sizes. I am committed to using my experience to ensure the best care possible for your pets! I’d love connect and talk more! I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day! I’m also available on weekends and during evenings Tuesday through Thursday. I love spending my free time with animals and am happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I have experience fostering dogs through animal shelters, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I always make sure pets feel safe and loved while sticking to their normal routines. Whether that means going on walks, playing with toys, or just relaxing together, I tailor my care to each pet. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands!
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have my own two cats currently. My childhood dog had epilepsy and was on medicine multiple times a day and I was his caretaker to help my family with their work schedules. I give my kitties love first try big in the morning but before I leave I feed them and scoop the box. I make sure to play with them before bed so they have activity and get their energy out. I let my cats free roam while I’m away for the day but I grew up with a crate trained dog. I’ve pet sat for friends before who have restrictions where their pet goes and I’ve been able to follow their directions.
“Daniel recently provided drop-in visits for our daughter's cat Milo while we were on a family hiking trip. His pics of Milo showed how happy Milo was to see him, and when we returned home it was obvious Milo was much more at ease compared to other times we were away. We've also had Daniel pet sit for our dogs in the past, and he really creates a fast bond with them. We're so thankful to have someone as reliable and attentive as Daniel to care for our pets!”
About: I’ve grown up with many dog personalities, and have worked with reactive dogs. I used to work at a dog daycare & understand everyone has their own unique needs. Just moved to bend & looking for a nurse job, working Rover until then! I have weekdays & weekends available but will be out of town for memorial weekend. I’m happy to take your doggo on a hike with me if that’s okay with you! Or to the dog park or elsewhere! Just let me know what you need
About: I'm well-versed in cat behavior, and have yet to meet a cat I can't be friends with! I'm experienced with shy cats, cats who over-stimulate easily, and cats who may not immediately warm up to everyone. I make sure the cat is leading every interaction! I currently work full-time, with a flexible schedule that leaves me able to check in on your babies! I'm excited to help care for your cats 🐈 I follow your instructions carefully! I make sure that your cat leads every interaction, and do my best to give them the best experience possible!
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and have been a longtime animal sitter for friends and family ❤️ I LOVE walking and couch cuddles equally 🐶🐈 I also have experience as a long-term sitter (6 months). I am self-employed, working as a part-time consultant and content creator, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually be available any time between 6:30AM-9:30PM for walks/check-ins/feeding/potty breaks. I am extremely conscientious, and I care deeply about honoring the trust people give me when they ask me to take care of their pet and/or home. I have been trusted to stay in and take care of others’ homes multiple times—I treat others’ homes and pets with the same love and care that I would my own.
“We had Gwen sit our two dogs with periodic drop-in visits while we were away on vacation, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provided them! She really went above and beyond with their care, even taking the time to take one of our dogs to the vet for an appointment that had to be done during the time that we were away. It wasn't an ideal circumstance for us to have to ask a sitter to do such a thing, but Gwen had no problem going the extra mile for us, and it was incredibly helpful that she was able to do so. We couldn't be happier with the care Gwen was able to provide!”
About: I grew up in a home full of pets, ranging from dogs and cats to rodents and reptiles, which only encouraged my love for animals. Over the last decade, that interest has lead me to pursue multiple paths in the pet care field. I have learned how to care for many types of animals, how to provide a safe and stress-free environment for pets, and how to keep an open line of communication with pet parents. The greatest takeaway, however, has been building a better understanding of animal behavior and how to interact with everyone at their own pace! At the moment, I am available for two drop-in visits per day, Monday through Sunday. I am unavailable at specific times certain days of the week. Those are: Tuesdays 9:30am-11:30am, Saturdays and Sundays (and some Fridays) 8am-10am Your pet's routine and comfort are my priorities! That leads me to focus on leash safety, home safety and security, and food/medication schedules. Regular communication is important to me, as it is the best way to ensure all needs are met.
“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Our first Rover experience was Excellent! Saige went above and beyond in all areas. The animals were very happy and they even let her take pictures! We would love to have Saige watch our furry family again in the future!”
“Heather was an excellent care provider for my cat! She made sure he was fed. She cleaned the litter box and she even cleaned up throw up. My cat gets sick a lot. She was a big help to me. I highly recommend her. I would love to have her again!!”
About: Multi-pet owner with experience caring for giant breeds, puppies & seniors anxious dogs, reactive dogs, and multi-pet households. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I provide patient, reliable care tailored to them. Whether your pet needs extra space, structure, or just lots of love, I’ll treat them like family while you’re away. I work from home, so boarded pets have lots of attention and outside time often. I’m right next to a park with lots of trails, so I’m happy to incorporate walks as requested! I have a privacy fenced yard, with pet friendly turf and lots of space to play! My pets are social and love to play, but my home is also set up to be able to safely separate all pets if yours needs personal space.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and I've cared for other people's pets for ten years. Every week I walk dogs and run pet sitting visits around Hyde Park and Oakley, so the routine is second nature: leash clipped, water fresh, doors checked twice. Every pet gets your process, not mine. Tell me about feeding schedules, allergies, food sensitivities, medications, grooming and exercise once, and I follow them to the letter. You get photos and notes after every visit. I'm most available on weekday afternoons and evenings from 3 PM, and on weekends. Mornings fill with regular walking clients, so send your dates early and I'll confirm quickly. Cats are part of my everyday life. When my mother passed, I took in her cats rather than rehome them, and their care opens and closes every day for me. I keep a lab level standard of clean and serious air filtration, so allergens stay low. Healthy diets, food allergy plans, seasonal natural remedies and supplements, dental care and regular checkups are routine in my home. In yours, I follow your rules, lock up behind me, and leave everything as I found it.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Newtown is $20

Devynne is the best! She sits for my parents as well and we are all so lucky to have her care for and love our animals while we are away. She clearly cares for animals deeply and I never had to worry while we were gone. She is kind, communicative, gentle, and patient. Followed instructions to a T and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Took perfect care of our 3 kitties and I can't imagine trusting anyone else now. Amazing pet sitter and a good person. Thank you Devynne! :-)
Victoria did a wonderful job caring for my two cats while I was away! She was very communicative and easy to coordinate with! I appreciated the time she spent with them and loved the photos and check ins she provided. I would not hesitate to have Victoria watch my cats again! :)
Jocelyn did such a great job taking care of my Niko while I was away. Her check ins were timely and she always provided reassuring updates during her drop in sessions. She was also super flexible and able to accommodate my schedule which I really appreciated. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to leave their furry friend in good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 377 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 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 Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newtown. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
