“Lexi was amazing! She charmed my very shy kitty within the first couple visits! He was so comfortable with her by the end of the booking, I've only seen him act like that with me! She went above and beyond with the care of both cats and even spent time petting some of our outside cats! When we had a sitter cancel 3 days before our trip, I was panicking but Lexi saved the day and accepted our request last minute! I will absolutely be booking with her for all our future trips!”
About: Animals are my life and I believe they deserve nothing but the best. I've had 2 years of boarding experience with Indiana's top boarding facility as a team lead. I've had lots of experience with several cats and dogs of varying needs and temperaments. I am very practiced with specific medication administration (including injections and nebulizers), specific dietary needs/restrictions, and animals with a wide variety of special needs (blindness, deafness, mobility issues, diabetes, epilepsy, and senior needs). My dedication to providing animals with the care and attention they deserve knows no bounds. Most of my day right now is spent with my miniature schnauzer, Cocoa. For about 2 years I have devoted a large amount of my time to dog and cat care in a professional facility, from boarding to daycare. I only stepped away because I wanted to pursue an education as a vet tech. Animal care is, in every sense, my passion and career. I like to tailor my care to what will fit both the owner's needs and the pet's needs. Taking time to really get to know an animal and build that trust with them is a MUST. I believe communication is of the utmost importance and something I pride myself on when it comes to owners and their comfort and peace of mind while away from their furry family member. At the end of the day, they aren't just leaving a pet, they're leaving a family member in the care of a stranger. It's my duty to make myself someone you can feel your baby is safe and happy with.
“Sarah did an excellent job with our girls Molly and Chloe. Molly is very picky about who she "likes". I was happy to see her playing and coming out when Sarah was there. I will definitely book Sarah again when we need someone in the future.”
“They communicated very well about how the stay was going! They sent pictures, communicated when my cats weren't getting along, very patient with my more nervous cat, and loved on my more out going cat like he was their own.”
About: I’ve happily taken care of dogs of any kind, inside their homes for family and friends for 10 years. I have house sat and done drop ins too. I am currently working full time but we will be home with the pups all evening. I am also able to stop in on my lunch breaks to do mid day potty breaks and some play time. On weekends my availability is much more open and I will be able to spend lots of time playing and spending time with the pups. I have 4 dogs of my own at home that I care for and love with my family. I will show the same love and care for your pets as I do with my fur babies!
About: I have 17 years experience in the veterinary service field. I am skilled at giving both oral and injectable medications on a regular basis. I am trained in fear free handling and believe in positive reinforcement training. My work schedule is generally Tuesday 6:45a-2pm, Wed and Thursday 7am-7pm, Fri 12pm-7pm and every other Saturday 8am to 1pm. If you are looking for a person with a passion for animals and the experience to back it up please reach out. I would absolutely love to be your pets new best friend! Right now I am in between jobs so my availability is very open. The only real work around will be the puppy I currently have. My care of your pets will be solely dependent on you and your family’s requests. Every family has different wants for what they are working on with their dog so I am highly flexible to help with that.
About: I have always had dogs my whole life. I rescued my dog Mary from the shelter & trained her out of her bad habit of relieving herself wherever & whenever she wanted that she had learned from the shelter. I also trained her myself to sit, stay, lay down, & shake. I’m gentle with animals & love to share love with them all ❤️ treats? We gotta have them! I am currently not working and have been looking for ways to make some money while pregnant. I am available at all times, whenever you need me. I have a fenced in yard, a sweet puppy dog named Mary that loves to play & have company :) I will be intentional if you have special care requests. I always strive for above and beyond for cleanliness, care & love!
About: As an adult, I’ve taken care of four separate dogs. I have experience taking care of senior dogs who needed multiple medications, IV antibiotics and fluids. Most recently, I have trained my current pup to reduce his anxiety with other people. I have potty trained him, leash trained him, taught him basic commands, and give him daily oral medication. I am very patient and like to ensure the dogs comfortability while learning. I currently work four days a week as a nurse, so I will have ample time on the three days that I am off work each week. I treat my pets (and yours) like family. In my role as a mother and a nurse, I take care taking very seriously, and that tends to bleed over into the rest of my life as well.
“Cozette is great! She took excellent care of my two cats while I was traveling and sent me daily updates/photos to let me know how they were doing. Cozette is great with cats and will definitely treat yours well too.”
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes! I have looked after and cared for pets since childhood, and would love to add your pet to my roster! I am a massage therapist working 4 days a week. I am available all day on Wednesdays, and Friday afternoons to take your dog for a walk, feed your cat, or hang out with your furry friend! I am flexible to work with you and your pet to best suit their needs. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood, hang out with them at your house, or take them to my fenced in yard where they can run either by themselves or with my dog.
“Savannah went above and beyond to care for our cats. She was a great communicator and provided many photos and videos. She also gave them extra attention, plenty of play time, and engagement. It was relieving to know someone was so attentive, trustworthy, and already knowledgeable about pets. She also kept the cat space clean!”
About: I have always had many animals from rabbits to birds to fish, and of course dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and love making bonds with them as well as making them feel loved and safe. I am in grad school so have school every day Monay-Friday, off on Thursday's but I am extremely flexible. I have school most days 8:30-4pm. I care for pets in my home by making sure they have access to fresh food and water, regular exercise, and a clean and safe environment. I also make time to give them attention and all the love. If caring for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow the client’s specific instructions and routines for feeding, walking, grooming, and other pet-care needs. I would also make sure the pet’s environment is safe and clean while respecting the client’s home, preferences, and routines!
About: Animals have always held a huge place in my heart! Since going to school in veterinary medicine, I’m experienced in caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I love spending time with fur babies and giving owners peace of mind knowing they’re cared for. Extra Skills:: • Administering Oral Medications • Working with Senior Animals • Nail Trims (Dogs and Cats) • Anal Gland Expression (Dogs only) I’m currently working part time so I have flexibility! My goal is to have clients I develop a good relationship with. My top priority is that owners trust me and so do their fur babies! I feel it’s very important to give clients the peace of mind that their pet is going to get the care and attention they need! Exercise and enrichment is very important for pets and I enjoy being the one to give it to them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Newton
Tess did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. One of our cats has diabetes and she did great administering his insulin. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures that we very much looked forward to. There were a few things that came up at the house that I needed help with, and she went above and beyond to help out. I was able to relax knowing my kiddos were in great hands. Will 110% book with Tess again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Newton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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.

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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% can help with daily exercise
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.
