“Absolutely stellar experience leaving my furry friend at Josephine’s. She went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness. She also provided regular updates and photos, which eased my mind while I was away. I highly recommend Josephine for anyone looking for top-notch care for their beloved pet.”
“We left our two dogs (Chihuahua & French Bulldog), with April, her family and her own dog this past weekend, and we couldn't be happier. We did a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and our boys explored and got to meet everyone. April provided a wonderful, welcoming environment. She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent some snaps, putting our minds at ease. April noted she paid special attention when the weather was warmer outside not to let our frenchie play outside too long. (Which is always a plus knowing someone is giving breed-specific attention with a frenchie) It’s clear they were well-cared for and entertained the entire stay. It’s such a relief to know our boys were in such good hands and had so much fun. We will definitely be booking with April again!”
“Kevin and Delinda provided wonderful peace of mind while caring for Olivia. They sent frequent pictures and updates throughout the day, which made it so easy to know she was happy and well cared for. Olivia received plenty of walks, attention, and love during her stay. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they watch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Olivia again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“I could not have asked for a better experience! Lawrene was very responsive and my Pixie was very comfortable in her care and came home happy. I hope that we are able to rebook in the future. Thank you!”
“So grateful to have found this amazing family who kept such amazing care of my pups! HIGHLY recommended. Good communication. Photos. These pups and this dog momma are very happy! Would ABSOLUTELY board again! Thank you for loving my babies! ❤️❤️”
“Juliet and her family were absolutely wonderful to our dogs while we went on vacation. We felt so good that we could be worry free knowing our babies were in great hands with this sweet family. Will be back for future trips!”
“Julie was an awesome dog watcher. This was the first time I’ve left my buddy with someone new while leaving town for a few days, and Julie made Fen feel right at home. She gave me daily updates with pictures and video and I could tell my boy was enjoying himself. It made my vacation much more comfortable knowing he was in good hands and I would not hesitate to leave him with Julie again next time I’m out of town.”
“Chris was fantastic with our girl!! She was so patient and let her adjust to being in a new place. She sent daily updates with pics and videos. I knew our girl was being treated like the queen she is! Highly recommend and will definitely book again! Wonderful experience!!”
About: I have always had pets growing up. Animals are such sweet souls that can be so misunderstood. Let me love, and take care of your pet, while promising safety and health! I am currently staying at home with my daughter while my son is in school during the day! This is the perfect way for me to make some extra money while being able to still be a mom. I do not have any pets in my home so safety is my number one priority. I have a fenced backyard and am ready to play with your fur baby!
“Austin was so amazing with both of our dogs!! We changed up plans last minute and he was so accommodating so we really appreciated that. He loves animals and our dogs loved him too.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience and genuine love for animals. I have two family dogs of my own who live back home with my parents, and I’ve been dog sitting since I was 12. Being away from my dogs makes me miss having that animal love around, so I would truly enjoy giving your pets the same love, attention, and care I give my own! Pet care fits really well into my daily routine because my class schedule is pretty flexible and gives me plenty of time throughout the day. On Mondays, my class is from 6–9 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:30–11:30 AM, and Wednesdays from 12–1 PM. This leaves me available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care! I care for every pet as if they were my own and always make sure to follow the owner’s specific routine and instructions. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable by keeping up with their normal feeding schedule, walks, playtime, and any other care they need. I also love giving them plenty of attention and affection so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away!
“Breanna was excellent with my dog Harley and sent me updates and plenty pictures while I was away. I haven't been away from my dog in a while overnight so I was bit worried she wouldn't do well in a new environment with a new sitter. but needless to say Breanna kept me up to date the whole time reminding me the first night is always the hardest and informing me that my pup was a bit stand offish the first night so I began to worry. but the very next day with the picture updates sent by Breanna I could tell my dog was in excellent hands and enjoying her stay. I highly recommend. For sure will book again with her soon!”
About: Can't wait to meet your fur family! I am a secretary at Lincoln elementary. I love caring for the students and I would love to care for your pets too! I have been a pet caretaker for as long as I can remember. From my Yorkshire Terrier, Tiffany Rene, my sweet beagle/lab mix Lucy, to my cats Bucket, Lemmy, and Pepper. Our gentle giant Betty (Irish wolf hound/poodle/terrier) went to the rainbow bridge. Now I have my one dilute tortoiseshell cat, Steel. We also have Bluey, a Texas blue heeler mix. My friends bring their pets around and everyone always gets along. I have a 19 and 17 year old (humans) who love animals too. So they can help out as well! I do look forward to meeting and caring for your furry family members! Pet care is always part of my routine. Taking care of my own pet needs and the needs of any other pet I am responsible for is an honor. I have a fenced in yard. Bluey is more of a go out and come in gal, but she would love to hang out and play. We go on walks &/or dog park.
“Amber and her family were fabulous. They sent daily pictures and were in communication with me. Yzma can be difficult but she did great with them. Gamora must have been a positive influence on her lol it allowed me to enjoy my vacation knowing everything was good and Yzma was happy.”
“My dogs absolutely love visiting! He has done a fantastic job with our pups. One has even had medication needs while staying, and he did a great job giving and communicating about her needs. He sends video checking so we know our pups are safe and having fun! We will definitely keep coming back!”
“Amanda was awesome! Has a nice, huge backyard. Sweet and calm towards my pup. She sent pics and updates regularly. I was 100% comfortable leaving my dog with her. Thanks, Amanda!”

Paige was amazing with our dog Romy! She boarded her for the weekend and made everything so easy for us. We really appreciated that she had a fenced-in area, and she even handled pick-up and drop-off, which was such a huge help. She kept us updated with lots of photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. Romy looked happy and well cared for the entire time. We would definitely book with Paige again!
This was first time to use this app.,and couldn't be more pleased. Angel was exceptional with our Yorkie and we felt comfortable knowing he was being well cared for. Angel was very good about keeping us informed with texts and pic's. Thanks Angel! We will definitely be using on our future trips.
Jessica was wonderful during Daisy’s spring break stay. She sent updates and pictures every day and stayed in constant communication, which was very important to us while we were traveling. Her home is very clean, quiet, and calm, which was perfect for Daisy. This is a great environment for older dogs or dogs that are used to a quieter household. She cared for Daisy as if she were her own, and it truly showed. Daisy came back happy and healthy, and we could tell she was well cared for the entire time. We would absolutely book with Jessica again.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Norman is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $49 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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Norman can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norman 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 Norman.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norman. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
You and your Norman 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 OK 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
