About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was 7 years old, so caring for pets has always been a big part of who I am! I’m 23 now and have plenty of experience taking care of animals independently, from meeting their daily needs to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I have trained puppies and taken care of kittens, and I've also taken care of elderly cats and dogs. As an occupational therapy student, I’ve developed strong empathy, patience, and an understanding that everyone has different needs and personalities. I bring that same approach to animals by paying attention to their individual needs, respecting their routines, and helping them feel at ease. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! As an occupational therapy student working toward my doctorate, I have a busy but flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care. I am available after classes and on my days off, which gives me opportunities to provide pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I am organized and responsible when balancing my schoolwork with other commitments, and I can work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I look forward to making pet sitting a rewarding part of my routine while providing reliable, loving care for your pets! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any other specific needs. I also make sure to give each pet plenty of attention, affection, and patience while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I prioritize their well being and make sure owners feel confident that their pets are in loving, responsible hands. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can see how your furry family member is doing.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. I’m also a critical care nurse with five years of experience, so I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable handling medications, special instructions, and unexpected situations with a calm, caring approach. I have a senior dog of my own, so I understand how important patience, compassion, and personalized care are. Since my senior pup can no longer enjoy long walks, I’d love to give your dog the exercise and adventure they deserve! Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll stick to their routine, provide fresh food and water, administer medications if needed, and send plenty of photo updates so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. As a critical care nurse, my schedule varies, but I know it well in advance and keep my availability updated. On my days off, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet, whether that means long walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a critical care nurse with five years of experience, I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable following medication schedules and special care instructions. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own senior dog, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or elderly, I’ll treat them like family by following their routine, keeping them safe on walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention while you’re away.

“Jahari helped us out last minute when we needed someone with an extra skillset to check in on our girl. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter and in particular anyone needing the extra layer of assurance a vet tech can provide. He is super kind and accommodating and we are glad to have found him!”

About: I have great knowledge and experience of dogs of all breeds and sizes, and have house sat and walked dogs through rover since I was a kid with my mom. I am experienced in training, introducing, and watching dogs as I have fully trained a male lab puppy, an African mastiff, my personal dog, and a therapy dog! I am currently taking full time college classes online, with two in person weekly. I also work marketing remotely so I have a lot of flexibility as I get to create my own schedule. I also am very fit and like to walk/hike daily finding new trails for me and the pups! I do hourly walks depending on the dog, as well as parks/hikes to make sure they fullfill their energy needs. I also ensure they are let out to use the bathroom on a consistent schedule as well as food and water. I myself have some energy so I do like to run around the backyard and/or play with them lots! If training is requested that is also done on a consistent strict schedule.

“Seana was our first rover sitter and made the entire trip seamless and peaceful. Her communication was prompt, professional and left us feeling secure that we left our pets in the best hands possible. From the first message about potential meet and greets to the daily check-in’s she was wonderful. We will be using her again when we need a sitter as she was extremely trustworthy and kind to our boys!”


“It seems like our puppy had a great time with Mr. Fernandez. He sent us pictures and gave us updates in our puppy during his stay. He was very accommodating and was available on short notice. He will now be our permanent doggy sitter.”

About: I have experience caring for all kinds of animals! Whether your fur baby has a medical condition or needs medication, I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care I give my own pets. While they’re with me, your pets will be treated like family! I currently work full time, but I have a fairly flexible schedule. I’m also a proud dad to two fur babies and a newborn son! ❤️ As a fellow pet parent, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets. No matter how busy life gets, I always make sure every fur baby in my care receives the same love, attention, and care that I would want for my own. Your pets will be treated like family! I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and administering medications as directed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them comfortable in their familiar environment while providing plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
About: I love animals and have had pets all my life. My experience in caring for animals includes most recently dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I currently have a dog and care for my son’s cat when he is out of town. My relationship with animals has always been amazing because I give them loving attention and ensure their needs are met. It will be my pleasure to have an opportunity to love and care for your pets I offer drop-in care, which means I can pop by your house during the day to check on your pets, handle feedings, and get them some exercise. While I'm not available for full-time house sitting or overnight stays, I build my drop-in visits completely around your pet's needs. I’m a big outdoors person, so when I come by, I love getting them outside for some fresh air, a good neighborhood walk, or a fun play session to burn off some energy. However, I’m just as happy spending quiet time indoors—ensuring your cats or other pets are fed, comfortable, attended to, and feeling secure while you're out." During my visits, I’ll happily spend time outside playing fetch in the backyard or taking your pets for a walk at a nearby park. When inside, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they’re into that!). Most importantly, I stick strictly to your preferred feeding times and house rules, ensuring your pet is happy, fed, and safe before I head out.
About: Hello! I’m Stacey and pets have been a part of my life since childhood. I grew up with cats and have owned cats and dogs since I graduated from college. My cat Cabot and my dog Mocha both recently passed away at the incredible ages of 18 and 13 and they are so very missed. I have been a furball empty nesters for a little while now and would love to spend some quality time watching your fur babies! I absolutely love dog training, teaching tricks and playing challenging brain games with them to keep your pet entertained while they are staying with me. I am currently a stay at home mom, so your pets will have lots of company all day. Daily walks, play sessions, snuggles and indoor brain games are ways I enjoy engaging with the pets I am watching. I have a single family home with a fenced in backyard and a nice neighborhood for dog walks. I am a dog trainer at heart and love connecting with dogs through clicker and treat positive reward training games. I am home most of the day. When I leave the house I like to use the crate for safety and typically prepare a fun Kong frozen treat to keep them entertained, however I know some dogs do best out of the crate so I handle that on a case by case basis.
“Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future! She left great notes and made me feel at ease while I was away. 😁 Thank you. This was the first time I have used Rover and it was a great experience. Miranda also help me understand how to use the app since I made some silly mistakes.”

About: I have been dog sitting for 3 years! All types and sizes of dogs are my favorite! I am a lifeguard and college student on the side, with a certification in CPR, looking to get a pet CPR certification soon. I have two dogs of my own who I love very much. I often dog sit for family/ friends for vacations, and multiple days in a row, I have experience giving medication because one of my family members dogs has epilepsy. I am willing to bond with any dog and I genuinely enjoy dog sitting. I believe I have a benefit because I have had dogs my entire life, so I understand what day to day life is with a dog. Thank you very much!!! I am a law school student who is looking for some part time pet care ! I have classes during the weekdays with breaks in between. This will be my only job and will be perfect for weekends! When I come to your home I will do my absolute best work on taking care of your animals ! Whatever service I am providing will be done with love and care.

“First time using Rover. Any reservations I had going into this were quickly dissolved by Justine’s friendly and prompt responses. I appreciate the communications prior to the visit and also the updates during and afterwards. I would absolutely request her again in the future.”


About: I've lived with cats my whole life and love them all! I currently have three who are all rescues/foster fails. I fostered kittens and a special needs cat for several years and currently volunteer with a rescue as a cat socializer. I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule to visit your cat, and am home most days for boarding or kitty daycare. I work from home, so have plenty of time to spend with your cat. I have a room dedicated to cat boarding, so they will not have to interact with my cats. I have a room in my home dedicated to cat boarding. Your cats will be separated from my own cats and will be secured so that they can't get outside.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Newtown
Elizabeth was wonderful! She was able to help us out last minute when an unexpected home renovation led to a weekend away, and we really appreciated her flexibility! She took great care of all four of our pets, was fantastic with communication, and kept us updated throughout the weekend. Our pets seemed to really like her, which made us feel even better about leaving them in her care. We would absolutely recommend Elizabeth and would happily book her again!

Carol is wonderful to work with. She came over before I left on a trip to make sure everything was ok, check on the animals and any special needs they may have had and get the key in advance to ensure no problems. She was able to easily care for my cats and even cleaned up when one of the cats was violently sick outside the litter box. She sent pictures of both animals at every visit (2X a day for over a week) and helped assuage any anxiety I had about leaving them. 10/10 - absolutely trustworthy and able to care for elderly and even younger cats.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Newtown is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,341 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.

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.
