About: The South Walpole dog bnb offers private in-home care without any other pets present. I do not own any pets, nor do i work with multiple clients at the same time. Your dogs (2 max) will have my undivided attention during their stay in my spacious comfortable home, which abuts conservation land. My home is located in a peaceful neighborhood at the end of a cul-de-sac, which offers many excellent routes for daily walks. I work mostly from home as a real estate agent and have a very flexible schedule. I am home in the mornings to drop the kids at school & home early most afternoons to meet them from the bus. Dogs will be left alone for 4-5 hours maximum. My property is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, far from any busy roads. It borders conservation land, which offers a very private and peaceful setting. I have two children, ages 11 and 15, who both adore animals. There are several dog walking routes located conveniently close to our home, and I currently have no other pets in the house. My home is also a non-smoking residence.
“Dana was awesome. Snickers is still a puppy and has accidents and he handled her great. She also needed to take some medication for a cough that popped up a few days beforehand and he took it in stride. I’ll definitely be using Dana in the future”
“Alex is an exceptional caretaker and we are so relieved we found him! We left for our first trip away from our superstar Rufus, and Alex couldn’t have been more understanding and thoughtful with the communication of photos, videos, and calls when we were missing our pup. Alex was also flexible when our flight was delayed and we appreciated that greatly. Thank you again Alex, we look forward to Ru having a place to stay with you in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Norfolk
My dogs; Louie and Paislee, have the BEST time with Lyndsey, Evan, and Rollie. They come back so tired, relaxed, and happy. They go for long walks daily, I get photo updates daily, and they never leave the dogs alone for long. They even let my bed hogs sleep in bed with them. We will always leave our dogs here when we travel!!
Eric and Alison took great care of our dog Biscuit! They could handle her enthusiasm to play with children and their own dog, and treated her like their own. They gave constant updates, reached out with questions and we're easy to contact. Biscuit enjoyed her stay and we are so grateful for them!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Norfolk on Rover is $68.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Norfolk. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
91% of Norfolk sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Norfolk landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norfolk home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Norfolk.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Norfolk sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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 MA 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
