About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 13. I have 5 years experience working in 2 different dog daycares watching dogs from all sizes, providing meds, cleaning up after them, and feeding them. I am also dog behavior certified. I am currently a full time student completing my masters degree online so that means plenty of flexibility within my schedule. I am able to work M-F from 7-5pm and can stop by for night check ins for up to 30 min to an hour for dinner feeds and nightly walks.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, I understand that pets are family. I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, including daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have owned a Golden Retriever, yorkie, two Great Danes, and a pitbull. I am comfortable with everything from energetic exercise sessions to gentle care for smaller breeds. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and attentive to each pet's unique needs. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a quick potty break, or companionship while you're away, I will treat them with the same care and affection I give my own pets. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

She kept me informed with photos and the house was as tidy when I returned as when I left it. Will definitely be using in the future...”
“Could not be happier with the care Josh put into his time with our dog, Dale. Dale can be a bit overwhelming to some guests, but Josh handled him perfectly.

About: I am an experienced sitter in bucks county who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any opportunities to cuddle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong lol All about balance, long walks, trips to the park… but just as happy curling up on the couch for some quality R&R time. Whatever mix your pup loves, I’m ready to match it Your pup’s safety is priority one! Our home has a fully fenced yard, so there’s plenty of secure space to run and play. And we’ve got a two-goldendoodle welcoming committee — Piper and Paisley — who make sure every new pup feels like part of the pack from day one, not just ‘watched.’ If I’m caring for your pup in your home instead, that same standard applies: I’ll treat your space with the same care and attention as my own, making sure your pup sticks to their normal routine and feels safe and comfortable the whole time.

About: I've had dogs and other animals throughout my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I've also spent years helping friends with their pets, from regular dog sitting and walks to grooming and everyday care. I'm patient, gentle, reliable, and very comfortable getting to know an animal's individual personality and routine. I'm also genuinely an outdoors person, so your dog's walk isn't something I'm trying to rush through. I'm happy to let them explore, sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy being outside. Whether your pet needs a good walk, some playtime and company while you're away, or simply a dependable person to stop in and make sure they're happy and cared for, I'll treat them with the same attention I'd want someone to give my own. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for weekday walks and drop-in visits. I especially enjoy daytime walks and can accommodate both regular weekly schedules and occasional visits when you need an extra hand. I take your pet's safety and routine seriously and will always follow the instructions you provide for walks, feeding, medications, doors and gates, and anything else your pet needs. I'll treat your home with respect and keep you updated during every visit so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have taken care of a lot of dogs over the years but now I'm looking for a new adventure with Rover. I promise the best for your dog I currently have a job but having another dog around the house or a dog to go and walk would not be an inconvenience at all We have a Yorkie at home and she pretty much does whatever she wants. Your dog would be treated exactly the same. She gets along with other dogs very well and knows how to handle herself around larger dogs

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Newtown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Newtown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Newtown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
