About: Hi my name is Jack Hastings and I just moved from Philadelphia to Newtown, PA. I’m a former graduate of the University of Pittsburgh and currently work as a Quality Engineer in the Biotech industry. I have always loved dogs and started a pet-care service back when I was in elementary school. From then on, I have frequently taken care of many pets in the area. My family currently has a 7 year old Labradoodle named Bailey. I'm used to Bailey's high energy, so I have no problem taking care of dogs that like to run around and play. Whether your pet is high-energy or more relaxed, I will take care of them with love and care all the same. Feel free to reach out with any questions or bookings. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I’m available for drop-in visits/walks after work or on weekends. Please reach out and we can see if I can work with your needed schedule. I’m a trustworthy pet sitter with many positive references to back it up. Also willing to do any tasks around the house you may need done while you are away.

“Carly was super responsive and very attentive and Murphy seemed to have no problem being with her. She took pics and provided updates and overall this was just a great first experience!”
About: I’ve had experience with dogs my entire life. Growing up, my family owned two Labrador Retrievers, a Boxer, and a Mastiff, giving me hands on experience with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and care needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve provided overnight care for dogs ranging from miniature Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I am passionate about animal safety, comfort, and well being, and I understand the importance of maintaining routines to help pets feel secure while their owners are away. While I do not have formal training, I have experience caring for dogs at all life stages, including senior dogs. I am comfortable administering medications as directed and paying close attention to any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. My goal is always to provide loving, reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to provide dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I am available during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Because I am not currently working another job, I can spend significant time with your pets and accommodate a variety of schedules. For house sitting assignments, I can typically spend several hours with your pets throughout the day and will ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and care. Should my availability change in the future, I will promptly update my Rover calendar so pet owners always have accurate scheduling information. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home because I have a senior dog of my own. However, I am available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I am committed to following each pet owner’s instructions and routines as closely as possible. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise requirements, and any special care instructions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Having cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including senior dogs and dogs requiring medication, I am comfortable handling unexpected situations calmly and responsibly. If an emergency were to arise, I would prioritize the pet’s safety, follow the owner’s emergency instructions, and maintain clear communication throughout the process. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable, attentive care that gives owners peace of mind.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Newtown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker.
