About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have tons of experience with pets.I’m patient, attentive, and truly love being around animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 3 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the late afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I can provide walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other care around my work schedule. I’m dependable and do my best to keep pets on their normal routine.

I’m comfortable with crating, letting dogs in and out, feeding, walks, playtime, and following any routines or instructions you provide.
“It was the first time we called on Stuart to walk Clare, not just once, but twice in a day, and we’re glad we did. Stuart was conscientious from the start, offering to stop by the day before we needed him to meet us and Clare. We highly recommend him!”

“Katie is so wonderful! We recently got married and went on our honeymoon. This meant many days not at home with our sweet cat, Kelton. Katie made sure to communicate each day with us. We felt 100% comfortable with her checking in on Kelton while we were gone. The pictures and notes made me feel so much better being away! I knew he was getting the care and love he needed. Katie is one of the best! :)”

About: I have loved taking care of pets my whole life. My family eventually got a dog of our own and I was the main caretaker for the dog. I taught her tricks and spend a lot of time with her. Since getting her, I have had multiple opportunities to dog sit for people in my community, including taking care of two dogs at once (in the same household). I am the first person people reach out to when they need someone to watch their dog. I am a student at SUU but I don’t have classes for more than 2 hours at a time. I do attend church on Sundays so I would be away for some time during that as well. I am very willing and able to learn what your routine is with your dogs. If they spend a lot of time outside in a fenced area or need to be in a crate or taken for walks, I will be sure to abide by your instructions.
About: Hi, I’m Isabel! I love making sure every pup in my care feels right at home. My husband, Shawn, works fully remotely, and our dog-savvy 10-year-old son loves having furry friends around.

Stevie was actually a former client who became family, so we know firsthand how special these bonds can be! When your dog stays with us, they become part of our everyday routines. From walks and playtime to simply relaxing together at home, we want every pup to feel comfortable, included, and loved. Think of it as a little staycation with plenty of companionship and a home away from home. We’d love to meet you and your pup!

I’m currently working part-time and I go for long walks daily, so I have plenty of time to provide care for your beloved animal friends!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Norton
Olivia was a fantastic pet sitter. She was reliable, flexible about scheduling, and made fast friends with our two dogs. Olivia sent updates and photos from every visit which were greatly appreciated. I would not hesitate to have Olivia sit for our dogs again.
Jillian was incredible with our 6 month old puppy. She was responsive before, during and after booking. She was sweet, receptive to my extensive instructions and my puppy loved her. She spent time with him, took him on walks, played with him and made him so happy. She sent pictures each time she visited, ensuring us he was looked after. I will rebook her every-time we need care and would recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate, respectable care for their animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Norton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $35 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 10,038 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Norton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Norton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Norton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
