Nisa is the most amazing pet sitter ever! My cat (who’s is very shy and not a fan of strangers) absolutely adores her! You know who truly loves animals just by how animals react to that person.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a natural love for caring for them. My childhood dream was to become a vet! Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies and large breeds to senior and unwell dogs who need a little extra patience, care and attention. I’ve also grown up with a variety of cats, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats with different needs and temperaments. I currently have a Husky and a puppy of my own, so I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise and patience that comes with having dogs at different stages of life. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow your routines and give your pet the individual care and attention they’re used to. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime, prefers a quiet cuddle, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, happy and comfortable while you’re away ✨🐾 Monday – Friday: Available after work, from the evening onwards. Saturday – Sunday: Fully available and flexible throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and arrange specific times that suit you. 🐾 I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I’ll provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, cuddles and any other care they need. I’ll keep their space clean and send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾

About: I am a reliable, caring dog person with personal experience raising my own dog from a puppy to her very old age. Friends always come to me when they need their dogs looked after, big or small, and I can be active in walkies or active in cuddling - whichever suits your dog best. Living by the sea allows for great exercise for your special pet, and if they're tired I have a car that means I can get them to a location and off or on the lead to stretch their legs and get home safely. I also live by a large field for those easy to access grassy walks. I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday), can be available on weekends, and generally have availability for overnight boarding. Pets are welcome on furniture in our house, unless you would like me to enforce any rules - which of course I can! There's a fenced garden for safe outdoor play as well. Please don't hesitate to get in touch about care for your dog - whatever size, age or personality. If you have several dogs, I have experience with allowing three dogs to board at one time so the options are certainly open. I look forward to hearing from you :) I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday) with minimal meetings so can be active during the day with walks and care. For boarding, I can do a whole week if your dog would be happy being left to roam the house while I’m out. Please just ask. I am generally available on weekends, and have availability for overnight boarding. I have a fenced garden to keep your pets safe, and quite a spacious interior for them to be comfortable when in the house. I do allow pets on the furniture but if you would like to keep your own rules for that I can absolutely honour and enforce those.

About: I currently have 2 young cats, 1 is still just a kitten who was semi-feral when first adopted. I have previously owned dogs too. My last dog died 3 years ago, he was a labrador and was blind from around the age of 9 years old. He was a rescue and loved a beach trip. We would often be out on long walks, in all weather. I used to work in a veterinary practice so have experience of all types of cats and dogs, from overly playful to shy and nervous, both young and senior. I also have an HND in Animal Management. I currently work 4 days a week. I'm available on Fridays and weekends. I can also potentially provide pet care after 5pm Monday to Thursday. This will depend on my husband's work pattern and childcare. I am attentive to your pet's needs, and respectful of your property. I am honest, trustworthy, and reliable. I have experience of caring for my own pets as well as others.

Olena and her daughter took amazing care of our kitty, Nikko. He was so happy and very relaxed upon our arrival home and almost seemed disappointed it was us and not lovely Olena coming to visit him again. I would not hesitate to book with her anytime we need a sitter in the future.

Had to leave my 6 month old kitten for a few days for the first time. Got sent loads of photos and videos on his videos which was lovely to know he was fine. When I got back he was absolutely fine, he seemed to have loved Oscar :)

About: I've looked after dogs my whole life, and honestly feel lost without them. We have had German Shepherd's mostly, including our current sheppy, Bronx (11 year old)- see my photos for some adorable sheppy spam. I'd love to take your dog/s for walks, give plenty of cuddles and even groom them (bath and brush) if that's something they enjoy. I've looked after other people's dogs including overnight stays and am looking to do this as I cannot own a dog in my accommodation and really miss them. I can't accommodate in my own home but will take perfect care of your space and pets. I also have plenty of experience looking after cats and ferrets too so happy to chat about that too. I am able to train dogs or keep up with their training schedule but this has been from growing up with dogs so I wouldn't count myself as a professional. Still, you pets will be safe and nurtured while with me :) I work Monday-Friday but can work from home 3 days a week and look after pets during that time. I am free on weekends and weekday evenings (after 5pm). I am very flexible and can work around your pet's schedule (feel free to ask me anything). I live opposite the seaside so know lots of great walking spots too! I have experience catering to different pets' needs and will provide the best care and lots of attention. I am also able to look after other pets (cats, ferrets, rabbits etc)- just ask! I like to stick to your pet's normal schedule so they feel safe and happy.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats and other pets, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines and little quirks. Whether it’s a playful dog who needs plenty of enrichment, a nervous pet who needs patience and reassurance, or a cat who prefers calm and consistency, I take the time to understand what makes each animal feel comfortable and safe. I’m attentive to the small details — changes in behaviour, body language, preferences and routines — because I believe great pet care is about more than the basics. It’s about creating trust and making sure your pet feels happy and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to welcome your dog or cat into a calm, caring environment where they receive the attention and respect they deserve. I work from home, which allows me to build pet care naturally into my daily routine and provide regular attention throughout the day. My days already include structure, including daily walks and time dedicated to being active and outdoors, so caring for a pet fits naturally alongside my existing routine. I enjoy creating a calm and consistent environment where pets can feel comfortable and settled. When caring for pets alongside my own cats, I prioritise their comfort and safety. I would provide separate spaces where needed, allowing each pet to have their own area, routine and time to relax. For example, visiting cats would have their own dedicated space while they settle in, with individual time spent with them throughout the day, while my own cats have their familiar areas. For dogs, I would take a similar approach by managing introductions carefully and making sure each pet has the space and attention they need. I believe pets are happiest when they feel secure, respected and able to adjust at their own pace. My goal is to make pet care feel like a natural part of my day while ensuring every animal receives personalised attention, routine and companionship. My priority is creating a safe, calm and comfortable environment where every pet feels secure. My home has a fully fenced garden, providing a safe outdoor space for pets to enjoy fresh air and supervised time outside. I always prioritise safety, including being mindful of each pet’s behaviour, needs and comfort levels. As I have my own cats, I take introductions and boundaries seriously. I would provide separate spaces where needed, allowing each pet time to settle and feel secure in their own environment. Any interactions between pets would always be carefully considered, gradual and supervised, based on the individual temperament of each animal. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, respected and understood. By maintaining clear routines, providing individual attention and adapting care to each animal’s personality, I aim to create a positive and stress-free experience while they are in my care.

About: I've spent my whole life with cats and dugs. I grew up with a tabby cat and a cocker spaniel and, when I was lodging in London, I lived with a calico kitten and an ex-Police German Shepherd. Friends, family, and folk I've got chatting to in the pub have all relied on me too look after their cats, kittens, and a range of dog breeds including labradors, rottweilers, and spaniels. I'm a devoted Cat-Dad. Lacey, our nine-year-old rescue cat, has me wrapped round her little toe-bean. I'd love to get a dog but I fear they might cause chaos at my day job in an art gallery. I'm friendly, reliable, and pride myself on excellent communication. I can't wait to meet your furry friend! I work shifts in an art gallery in Newcastle which offers great flexibility to accommodate your furry friend. My best availability is mornings and evenings Monday - Friday. I offer updates and photos from every check-in. I make time to play with your cat and check, food, water, and litter trays. I'm always happy to spend time with them to build trust and a real bond.

Oscar looked after my two cats (18 months and 6 months old) whilst i was away on holiday dropping in twice a day. He followed instructions perfectly and wasn’t phased by one of them being a little litter tray sensitive. He updated me with pictures and videos which gave peace of mind and both of my babies were in great spirits when I returned. Would absolutely book again!

Ellen has been absolutely superb with little Pitta. We were away for a week and it was our first time leaving him home & she reassured us so much via msgs and picture updates. My little cat never really shows interest in any company other than ours but he’s been so relaxed and comfortable around Ellen, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. No need to look any further, Ellen is the right person to take care of your cat & we will 100% be booking again when needed. :)

FAQs for Cat Sitting – North Tyneside

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in North Tyneside on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 344 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in North Tyneside. About 90% of North Tyneside sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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 trays. 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 socialisation 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

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 our Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 cat, 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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
