“Richard did a wonderful job on the drop-in visits. He proved himself to be a real neighbor, spending time with my senior dogs and making sure they eat their meals. When thunderstorms came through, knowing how jittery they get, he made sure they were safe and in the house until the storms blew through. Thank you, Richard! You helped out in so many ways, all the reviews I’ve read about you were all true! Looking forward to letting you take care of my girls the next time!”
“Our two cats do not get along. Despite their territorial spats, Patrick has somehow managed to get our trouble makers to play nice! I am astounded to come home from our trips to find the cats as best buddies. Our home is automated for food and water, but the mental stimulation from quality playtime is something you cannot simulate from a machine. According to our two cats, they give him 4 paws up! You can expect from Patrick a sitter that follows directions, thoughtful comments, excellent photos, and reliable availability. Thank you!”
“As Winston has gotten older, I very much worry about leaving him alone. Whenever i have to travel, I make sure Jenna is available before even getting tickets. Appreciate her care and updates when she watches him. 5 stars for sure!!!”
About: I grew up working at my parents dog kennel that was attached to our house. I took care of dogs, cats, birds, and occasionally rodents. I would help my parents scoop the yard, clean the kennels, and walk the dogs since I was 8. I now own a beautiful dog of my own who is the light of my life. For the last three years, I lived with three dogs of varying ages and sizes and helped to administer medications, train, love them equally. I would now love to be a part of your pet's lives too. I currently work part time and will have plenty of time to accommodate your pet's needs as long as the expectations are discussed prior and clearly to ensure a successful sitting experience. I am often told that dogs and cats quickly feel comfortable with me. If they are outgoing, I love to pet and play with them, if they are shy, then I am good at offering interactions while still giving the pet their space.
“Kevin was fantastic! It seemed that Tigger was pretty happy with Kevin as well. He doesn’t usually become an almost lap cat with anyone except my husband and I, but Tigger let Kevin join the club too. We came home to a wonderfully clean house as well. Kevin sent us photos and texts everyday to let us know how things were going. This is the first time we had left Tigger with anyone except family. We have already reserved Kevin to watch Tigger for our next cruise.”
“I don’t even know where to begin. Tarryn is an absolute gem and our fur babies ADORE her! Communication is quick and concise. She sent a picture when our doggo got settled into her home and little updates throughout their time together. Our doggo is a big love bug and she embraced that entirely! She checked on our home and our kitties too. I had complete peace leaving her in charge of our fur babies and home while we were away and I will not hesitate to contact her again and again! 100/10 recommend!”
About: I've spent a lot of my life taking care of animals, particularly cats. I have a Zoology degree and experience with developing commands and various training exercises as well as handling proper food intake and oral medicine intake. I am available every day, most of the day! It will vary per-day but as long as I have a two-day notice I should absolutely be available! I will be vigilant with your pets, making sure that they get enough attention and do not get into anything that they shouldn't. If there are any specific rules that you have in your home or for your pet I will make sure to follow them to ensure a safe and happy experience for your animals!
About: I have cared for my childhood dog since I was six years old and have a lifelong love for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I offer dog walking, overnight care, and pet-sitting services. Whether your furry friend enjoys a walk, a game of fetch, or simply extra love and attention, I will make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a part-time employee and a student at CSU, which gives me flexibility in my schedule to help care for your pet! I’m available for walks and boarding on weekends after 12 PM, as well as on Fridays and Mondays after 11 AM. I’m unable to care for pets in my own home, but I’m more than happy to come to your home and provide loving, reliable care. If there’s a park nearby, I’d love to take your dog for a fun walk, play fetch, or give them some extra exercise and attention. I’m also comfortable handling dogs that pull on the leash and will make sure they stay safe and secure.
“Hanna did a wonderful job caring for my elderly cat. She sent sweet pictures and thorough am/pm updates. Hanna is warm, outgoing, engaged, enthusiastic, caring, sincere and confident. My cat takes several meds- topical, injection, and oral and she was able to administer successfully. Not only that but she went above and beyond loving on him and giving him quality time. I highly recommend Hanna.”
“First time with Jessica and she was fabulous. Five stars out of five. She was on time, reliable as can be, took great care of our two cats, sent pictures and videos, stayed in touch, everything was in great shape here upon our return, we’re so happy with her. Thank you Jessica. We’re looking forward to our next trip knowing you are so wonderful.”
About: As of right now, I have two cats and two dogs that I raised since they were babies. I want you to feel care free while you are away, I have lots of experience sitting houses and pets. I work part time so I have lots of availability to help care for your fur babies when you need to get away or if you just need extra help. Whatever you are comfortable with, I like to stick to there daily schedule so they feel most comfortable. If you let me know what they like and don’t like thats usually best. I wanna make them feel comfy :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 837 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Norfolk. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norfolk. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
