About: I have been taking care of pets for friends and family members for about seven years, including drop in visits, walks, and overnight or weeklong stays! I enjoy taking the time to play with dogs outside and returning to see my favorite dogs on a regular basis! I currently work part time therefore I have very flexible hours and wide availability. I am unable to board dogs at my own home, but I am happy to meet pets at their home! Friends and family members normally ask me to walk, feed, and play with dogs, however I am also very willing to help train puppies or help dogs with specific needs.
About: I got my first dog through the foster care system three years ago, and that experience completely changed the way I see dogs. Since then, I’ve come to appreciate the happiness, comfort, and companionship they bring to our often chaotic lives. I treat every dog with the same patience, care, and attention I’d want for my own. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make each visit a positive experience so both you and your dog feel comfortable and confident in my care. There’s nothing quite like being greeted by a wagging tail and an excited smile, and I love being part of that happiness. As a full-time student, I have dedicated time each week for pet care and make reliability a priority. I’m available Tuesday and Thursday mornings, Wednesdays from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and weekends from the morning until 7:00 PM. I look forward to giving your dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is not a easy decision. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own by following your routine, prioritizing their safety, and giving them plenty of attention during every visit. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I’m the proud owner of a golden. We walk 3-4 miles a day in the woods behind my house.

I also think it is very important to keep my dog socialized I put her in daycare once a week to keep her comfortable with all dogs. My day always end with play time typically fetch outside and snuggles on the couch! My dog Rollie is my best friend. I work from home 2 days a week and either my husband or I are home early the other days. This allows for a lot of working from the deck sitting in the sun! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I would love to set up a meet and greet so we can all get to know each other. Looking forward to adding a friend for Rollie on our nature walks!

About: Milo’s House is a private in home pet sitting business in Holliston. We are in the process of receiving a kennel license for 7 overnight boarding dogs and 14 daycare dogs with a staffing ratio of 1:7. This is my full time job which gives me lots of flexibility for my clients! I have experience administering pills and injections for animals. My home is located in Holliston right off of the rail trail and I have a large fenced in yard with 2 sections to separate dogs if needed. I do have access to kennels, crates and baby gates to keep the dogs safe. In addition I have toys, bones and access to fresh water. Pet care is my full time job. I am home most of the day unless I need to leave for walks. Typically, that will be between the hours of 10-3. During this time the dogs will be able to take a nap and relax. Safety is my top priority at my home. I do not take dogs that are reactive or aggressive because of the liability for me and my clients dogs. Dogs are allowed to roam the house and the yard throughout the day. Kennels and crates are available for quiet time and safety. I have Furbos indoors and Ring cameras outside as an extra set of eyes! All pets are treated as if they’re my own! They are allowed in bed and on furniture.

About: Hi! My name is Caitlin, I grew up with a coonhound beagle mix! He got several walks a day and I have a lot of experience through him. I’ve done house sitting, drop ins, dog walking and dog sitting for several of my neighbors dogs and through rover! When house sitting I can feed the dogs, let them out, give them walks, water plants or any other requests. I am a recent engineering college graduate now working full time Monday-Friday. I used rover during my senior year of college and loved it! I’m hoping to continue using it in the evenings and on the weekends as a side job. I like to get clear instructions from the owner on the dogs normal routine to make sure they are comfortable and treated to their normal schedule. I love giving them lots of pets, attention and walks!
About: I've grown up with pets my entire life. Started working at a boarding and training facility and finally decided to branch out on my own. Between learning to administer meds for my diabetic cat to training my own dog to be daughters emotional support pet, I have quite a bit of knowledge. I look forward to taking care of others four-legged, fluffy friends as if they were my own! I am looking to fill my life with animals, however possible. I can be available at the drop of a hat to help with anyone's pet care needs. I have a tendency to spoil animals...If you let your dog sleep on the furniture then I will fully condone that and be curled up with them! If your cat gets to share your warm glass of milk before bed, then my milk is their milk!
About: I am 19 years old and I have an 11 year old Aussie who is just the best. I would love to expand my love for dogs to any other pups who need it! I currently work part time so this is perfect for me to pick up walks whenever I am off work! Though my availability will change weekly because my work schedule is never the same. I have an electric fence for my dog but she still goes on walks occasionally to get her out of the yard. A fenced in yard would be ideal for me to work with because it’s secure.
“Rachel is so sweet and attentive to our 8 month old golden retriever! she communicates great and is so loving to our girl. pennie already loves her even after only 2 meetings!”
“Lesley is amazing! We contacted her on short notice when my fiance was suddenly returning back to work. We loved that she had the experience to provide training walks for our little guy who is still learning his leash manners. She was flexible with our schedules, and keeps in contact with updates/videos throughout. She has provided us great advice on how to be better dog parents while on our walks. In just a few visits our baby is already behaving so much better on his walks! Do yourself a favor and hire Lesley!”
About: I have been doing Rover for some time now and am available for all your dog's needs. I enjoy staying active and cannot imagine a more enjoyable day than spending it playing with a pup! I have a lot of experience caring for my own dog as well as other people's. When I lived in Boston, I used to run play groups with up to seven large dogs at a time and I'd take them all to the park in a van (seen in many of my photos.) I have handled all sorts of different dogs and have experience in behavioral training as well. I understand that your dog is your baby and will care for them as if they were my own! My work hours are flexible at the moment so I will have plenty of time and space to care for your pup. I also work nearby right in Medway. I am very respectful of my client's homes. I make sure to only do as instructed. I have been trusted with keys and codes for many different homes and I am always careful to honor that trust. I was in childcare for 8 years as well so I understand how to look after people's children with kindness. Your dog will have play time and attention for my entire visit.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Norfolk is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Norfolk. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Norfolk after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norfolk. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
