House Sitting Newville

“Allison was great. She took good care of my animals, brought in packages, and even stayed an extra day on short notice. I would use her again.”

“Bri was available on short notice to watch our senior dog. She put our mind at ease knowing she was caring for our sweet boy. She is a great pet sitter!”

About: I have parented and fostered dogs for more than 20 years. I believe that every animal has their own special personality and needs and I do my best to recognize and honor that. I currently have 3 gentle playful smaller dogs that love visitors. My dogs live everywhere i do, on the couch and bed. I can manage feeding schedules and any medication as needed (including injections). I have been through it all! I work part-time from home (I’m a writer). I am almost always home unless running errands or taking the dogs to a dog park.Dogs are life and life is good. I have a fenced and secured backyard with a covered deck. Dogs have access to the yard all day unless it’s raining. We have 3 gentle friendly dogs: Maisie, 14 (17 lb dachshund poodle, very chill/frequent napper), Ollie, 9 (45 pound terrier mix and a total chicken), and Cricket, 6 (20 pounds, cocker-spaniel/poodle who thinks she is the leader but has no idea how to do it).

“Hayley did a great job with our girls. I can always tell when they are well cared for because when we come home they barely notice we are gone. And they let us know if they are not! :) Hayley kept me well informed and sent pictures. Definitely recommend!”

“Zackary was so awesome! We was super communicative and seemed to spend a lot of time at home with our two kitties boys. He asked questions when needed, checked in often and sent cute pictures! Our kitties were definitely happy when we got home and he was respectful of our space. Thank you so much Zack, the boys will be happy to see you in the future 😊”

“Danielle did an excellent job from start to finish. Because I found out late that our private sitter had to cancel, getting a replacement on such short notice was kind of stressful. Danielle had openings on the needed dates, and she quickly replied to my request. We set up a meet and greet, she came to our house, and the stress was gone. She immediately engaged with both dogs. They clearly liked her. My husband and I went up north, so cell service can be on and off. Danielle sent regular updates which I would see as soon as we were in range. I greatly appreciate that she left the house as neat as it was when we left; actually even neater. I would highly recommend Danielle. Thank you, Danielle for taking such good care of both dogs.”

About: Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats. Today animals continue to be an important part of my life. I'm a board member of a local humane society and volunteer weekly at the shelter. I also help with low-cost spay/neuter clinics, where I've worked with cats and dogs of many ages, sizes, personalities, and comfort levels. I know every dog is different. Some want long walks and lots of playtime. Others prefer a slower pace and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn your dog's routine, personality, and needs so they can feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Friends and colleagues describe me as dependable and patient. I pay close attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship or simply a familiar routine, I'll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, happy, and loved, and for you to have complete peace of mind while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work as an entrepreneur and consultant, which gives me flexibility to schedule visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day. Because I manage my own schedule, I'm often able to accommodate pets who need consistent care, medication reminders, multiple daily visits, or extra attention while their families are away. I intentionally limit my commitments so I can provide dependable, personalized care rather than rushing between appointments. When I accept a booking, I make your pet's wellbeing a priority. I'm happy to provide overnight house sitting in your home. Many pets are most comfortable staying in their familiar surroundings, keeping their normal routines, and receiving one-on-one attention in a place they know and trust. When caring for your pets, I'll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any other routines that are important to your household. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can stay connected and know how your pets are doing while you're away. I understand that hiring a house sitter means trusting someone with both your pets and your home. I take that responsibility seriously. I'll treat your home with care and respect, keep things tidy, and leave everything as I found it so you can return home to happy pets and peace of mind.

“Phillip did an amazing job with Otso and left the house spotless after the house sitting. Thank you for watching, Otso-man who may be pining at the moment. I hope it is him pouting that I left or I may need to get jealous, haha”

“First time using Rover. Trinty contacted us to make sure our address was correct. She sent an update, complete with picture. It was an easy job with an old dog and he seemed very content. Will use her again.”

“Amanda was a godsend when our house sitter cancelled last minute. We met her first then her with her dog, Sedona, and I knew right away this would work out really well. You see my dog, Millie, doesn’t warm up to people easily and doesn’t always play nice with other dogs but Millie instantly liked both of them. Amanda stayed at our house along with Sedona, so Millie was spoiled having her two new friends stay with her. They went on many walks and Amanda sent me lots of pictures while we were gone. I will definitely use Amanda again!”

“Ava was wonderful! Great communication and was so incredibly helpful when we needed a cat sitter last minute. Our shy cat warmed up to her right away. Will definitely book her again.”

“Karina always shows such care for my pets. My dog and cat both have health issues that require multiple medicines and supplements. She always follows their routine closely, asks questions to make sure she’s providing good care, takes my dog on daily walks, and sends daily pictures. I also come home to a clean house. I will not hesitate to request pet/house sitting from Karina again and I highly recommend her!”

Hailey L.

“Stacia was amazing. Communication was timely and made me feel comforted knowing she was taking care of my fur baby so I could enjoy my trip. My dog had some recent issues so she’s in a cone and has some special meds and food and Stacia handled it all with no problem! I’m so grateful an experienced large dog (and shepherd) owner was staying with my girl. 💗”

“Tucker did a great job watching Zoe & Mocha - regularly sent photos, provided updates from each visit, and was very communicative in providing care.”

“**Sulley Says 5 paws up for Laura! This was our first time using Rover.com and we were nervous about leaving our dog, Sulley, who has separation anxiety. We usually board him, but he gets so stressed, we decided to try something new. **We hit the jackpot with Laura! From the Meet and Greet to Waving Goodbye: Laura is incredibly reliable and listens attentively to everything you tell her about your pet's needs and preferences. She met with us at our house before the trip, and at our request, even came for a second visit so Sulley could get used to her without us there. **Peace of Mind While We Were Away: While we were gone, Laura sent us pictures and videos of Sulley, keeping us updated and feeling good about our furry friend. We even have pet cameras, which we offered to turn off, but Laura insisted on leaving on for our peace of mind. **A Happy Return: We came home to a very content Sulley! Laura clearly went above and beyond, even washing all the used linens and towels, and leaving the house spotless. **More Than Just a Pet Sitter: Laura is a 10 out of 10! She's not just a pet sitter, she's a lifesaver for pet parents with anxious pups like Sulley. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented pet sitter. Thank you, Laura!”

“Mallory showed up when we needed her the most. We had to leave the next day for a funeral and our usual gal was unavailable. Mallory was responsive and flexible and we are not sure what we would have done without her!!”
