“Anthony and Zanely took such good care of our dog while we were away. They kept us updated, took her on adventures, and spent quality time with her. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Natalie was absolutely amazing with Leo and Nala! From the very beginning, she was so intentional during our meet and greet and took the time to really get to know both of them, their personalities, and what they needed before we even handed them over to her. That meant so much to us and made us feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Throughout their stay, Natalie sent plenty of updates and kept me in the loop, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s very clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she takes care of, and she is incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We truly have nothing but great things to say about Natalie. Leo and Nala were so well cared for, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again. We will absolutely be rebooking with her!”
“Great sitter, had my dog for 8 days and he was well taken care of and because of her work he got to hang out with lots of other dogs all day! He had a blast! 10/10 would recommend.”
“Jamie was incredibly sweet and welcoming from the start making sure Cosmo felt comfortable during the meet-and-greet as well as his stay.Her adorable pup Luna played such a big role in helping Cosmo settle in quickly, and before we knew it, he was completely comfortable with their family. Usually Cosmo prefers staying in his crate while boarding, but with Jamie’s family he became so relaxed that he preferred their bed instead, which truly showed how safe and loved he felt there. Jamie also kept us updated regularly, giving us so much peace of mind. This is honestly the fastest I’ve ever seen Cosmo warm up to a family, and we’re definitely looking forward to many more stays. Highly recommend Jamie and her wonderful family for anyone looking for loving care for their furry buddies!”
“Excellent experience! We needed last minute overnight care for our two dogs and Kexin and Carlos were great. Very communicative and sent pictures/videos throughout, but also sent us home with a couple printed photos of our dogs enjoying their time. Their dog and cats were friendly with our dogs as well. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you!”
“I am very happy for the service provided by Yulia. My malti-poo dog has been given very good care by Yulia and her very nice/friendly family. I will request Julia for dog care service in next time again. Thanks Yulia!”
“Rebecca and Jeanette were super caring and took great care of our dog. We received regular updates and pictures. And communication was smooth for coordinating drop-off and pick-up!”
“Rylee was great! She gave care and attention to my cats while we were away. They seemed really happy and I loved the pictures I received. Highly recommend Rylee for your pet sitting needs”
“Tyler was great with Hudson while we were away! He took great care of him and sent us a photo every day, which we really appreciated and gave us peace of mind while traveling. Hudson seemed happy and well cared for when we got home. We’d definitely recommend Tyler and would be happy to have him watch Hudson again!”
“Sarah was amazing! My cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I would typically leave her at home alone. Unfortunately, due to this illness, she now needs care and I was nervous about the idea of leaving her home alone. I have an amazing career and was fearful I would need to make changes professionally as my cats are far more important to me than my role. Fortunately, I found this app and Sarah. Firstly, as soon as I brought my cat to her home I immediately noticed how clean it was and how kind her cat was to mine who was a little nervous. I feel like crouton (my cat) felt like she was at home which was amazing to see. After leaving, Sarah sent me plenty of pictures which eased my nerves and I will definitely be a repeat customer”
About: Having had dogs of my own throughout my life, I know how much our pets truly become part of the family. I am excited to care for and love a dog while giving them the attention, playtime, and companionship they deserve. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust, and I'll treat your dog like they’re one of our own! I am happy to follow your pet’s routine, give plenty of cuddles and belly rubs, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Working from home provides plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods of time! I can easily take them out for regular bathroom breaks, walks, and playtime, while also giving them lots of love and cuddles throughout the day. I love having a furry companion around while I work! I care for every pet as if they were my own! I’ll follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. Since I work from home, I’m able to give your pet plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away!
“Kevin was awesome! He took such good care of Kenobi! He sent pictures and videos with cute captions, communicated really well, asked questions when he had any to make sure Kenobi got the best and most consistent care. Could not have asked for better. Thank you Kevin!!!!”
“Ana was a great host for Ingrid. She played with Ana’s dog Lola and had a great time on her morning walks and car rides. The stay was amazing and we will love to keep Ingrid with Ana in the future as well.”
“Gina did a great job watching our dog, Theo! He seemed to be very comfortable with her, and she was very accommodating with us needing to add an additional day at the beginning of his stay. Would definitely use her again!”
“Pretzel had a great time at Alan's! We received lots of photo and video updates during his stay. Pickup and drop off were a breeze. Looking forward to our next booking with Alan for our next trip!”
“Jo and Adam took great care of my 2.5 year old cavapoo. Sent photos each day with updates and I felt like she was in good hands while I was out of town for 3 nights.”

We definitely lucked out finding Lyndsey & Evan!! They welcomed us and our boys (Pepper &Jack) with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement! I could tell immediately my boys felt right at home with them.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Norfolk is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $86 per night. 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.
There are 4,390 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Norfolk. About 90% of Norfolk sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
