“We needed someone to take care of our buddy while we were in town for an engagement party. Anner was quick to respond and we felt very comfortable leaving Jackson with him! Highly recommend him and would use his service again.”
“Diamond had a great time with Andrea! She is great and super caring with the my dog. She was very accommodating and give me updates.. I would highly recommend Andrea!!”
“Lena is a true professional dog carer..she took the time my dogs needed to feel comfortable with them. Very accomodating to their individual quirks, truly feel they are safe and happy in her care. Grateful to have found her! Also, bonus, her son is wonderful and my Midge is in LOVE with him.”
“Nacho's been going to Elaine's regularly once or twice a week for the last six weeks and has an awesome time when he's there, as he can't wait to get inside her yard when we arrive. He gets along well with the other client pups and Elaine's pack. He really loves it there and it's really good for his social development.”
“Kevin was a great sitter to watch both my dogs. He was able to accommodate last minute day care booking on Christmas day and when an emergency popped up during christmas, he was very nice to help out and have both my dogs stay overnight. He sent in pictures and videos of them on hikes and having a fenced yard was a plus! they were great with the other dogs he has in the house. Came to pick up my dogs and they looked so happy- usually will bark and whine when they see their mommy but this time they just jumped in exciment. It made me happy that both my dogs were at peace and calm at someones house they did not know; espically my senior dog who has major seperation anixety from being attached to me, she did so well and looked very calm which made me happy. After picking the dogs up from his house, they were passed out on the ride home. I would recommend Kevin when caring for your dogs. He responds well and is very nice and will treat the dogs like they are his own.”
“Val ( and family ) were absolutely amazing! We needed a last-minute booking for our dog, and she went above and beyond to accommodate us. Throughout the week, she sent lots of photos and videos, keeping us updated and reassured that our pup was happy and well cared for. It was clear she treated our dog like family, and we could tell how much love and attention she gave. We came home to a healthy, happy dog, and we’re so grateful for her exceptional care. Highly recommended, and we will absolutely use her again in the future!”

About: I have a lifetime of caring for my own pets, including senior care. I am loving, attentive, observant and treat every animal as my own. Rover is my sole job so there are no competing demands in my life. I am focused on the dogs in my care and my schedule allows for multiple walks in your neighborhood or mine, play time and of course hugs and kisses.

“Josie had such a lovely day with Clinton, his dog, and his son! She got lots of cuddles, time to roam around the fenced backyard, and plenty of window watching, three of her favorite things. Clinton communicated well and sent lots of great photos. I’ll definitely be bringing her back!”

“When I told our little dog that we were going to visiti Tina & Jon, she couldn't stop jumping for joy! We once took our dog to doggie daycare. They said, she just stayed with the "human" in the room. Playing with Tina & Jon's 2 little dogs has helped ours enjoy playing with other 4 legged animals with glee : )”
About: Hi, I’m Tatiana! Animals have always been part of my life, but in the last years I realized that I have a natural talent for training and working with dogs. What started as a passion has now become my full-time profession. I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages and temperaments — from playful puppies to senior dogs, from shy or anxious pets to those with more challenging behaviors. I focus on creating calm, safe, and structured environments so every dog feels secure and understood. Along with pet sitting and walks, I also integrate basic training and positive reinforcement into my care, helping pets build good habits and confidence. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in reliable and loving hands. 💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work independently and have a flexible schedule, I can easily dedicate my time to walks, play, feeding, and any special needs your pet may have. I make sure to structure my day so that pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always create a calm and secure environment. I pay close attention to their routines, behaviors, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced in working with both dogs and cats of different ages and temperaments, including pets that may be shy, anxious, or require medication. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away.
About: I am currently in the process of adopting a dog and have 3 back in my home in Colombia. I have family dogs here as well and enjoy spending time with all of them! I currently work per diem and am in an online masters program, so I have ample time to dog sit, walk, play, and overall spend as much time needed with dogs. I am responsible, empathetic, caring, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. Although I have a big yard, it’s not fenced but I will always be with the dog (whether trained or on a leash), taking appropriate care and walking around!
“Scheduled when we were in a pinch so appreciated the flexibility and responsiveness. I didn't get a lot of feedback on how his day went, but he came back happy and tired. I would send him back again if we lived in the area.”
About: I used to volunteer regularly at an animal shelter, where I worked with both cats and dogs. I’ve also been dog walking since I was young and have always loved it. I currently work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks and pet care. I enjoy staying active, so your pup will get lots of exercise and attention. I truly see pets as family and am a big animal lover and advocate! Since I work from home full-time, I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time giving your pets the attention and care they deserve! At my own home, I have my beautiful kitty Jinx. She is the sweetest and most curious cat. Together we like to cuddle and play with her favorite toys! (her new favorite toys are Wicked themed!)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Norwalk
Angelimar is a great sitter. She was very accommodating of my situation and offered to do a pick up for our dog to take her for daycare at her place. Pooka our dog seemed happy and relaxed enough to sleep, which is unusual for her. Great sitter we would use again!
We’ve been using John for weekly daycare and occasional boarding for our 3-year-old Vizsla for the past year and a half, and he’s truly the best!! He’s incredibly experienced and does a fantastic job managing the “pack” each day, making sure all the pups get along so everyone stays safe and happy. The dogs get plenty of playtime balanced with rest and cuddles, which we really appreciate. John is also super accommodating with feeding schedules, special instructions, and anything else your dog might need. On top of that, he’s always responsive and flexible with our schedules and messages. We love John and would (and have!) recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, safe, low-stress care for their pup.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in East Norwalk on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your East Norwalk commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,882 sitters in East Norwalk, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
