“Kerryanne was fantastic and helped me to have peace of mind while I was away. This was my first time having a pet sitter for my two cats, and she listened to everything I had to say, was very reassuring, and it was simply a fantastic experience over all.”
“Rebecca was reliable and communicated updates. We really appreciate her helping us with Cocoa especially at the last minute! We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jenna did a fantastic job watching our dog while we were away! She checked in multiple times every day, each with an in depth summary and pictures. Jenna also promptly communicated any questions. We knew our pet was in good hands.”
“Marie is phenomenal and I’m so thankful for her help on short notice and over the holidays! She took amazing care of my cat while I was away and sent fantastic updates after each visit. She is extremely professional and responsible. Will definitely be in touch with her for future needs!”
About: I have always been in love with animals. My family is very pet oriented. Even when I was a little girl my home would be filled with all different types of animals as my mom and I would rescue hurt animals from outside. Recently I have had even more connection with them, because my sister works at an animal shelter and I have helped her by volunteering there numerous times. I can honestly say that animals make me feel fulfilled // complete and I could not live without them! I am currently a full time college student, but I still manage to find time. I am free any time, all weekend and can discuss hours during weekdays. Thank you! (*During the summer my weekday availability frees up significantly). Your pet's well-being is my number one priority. I want to ensure that they feel at home and that they stay safe, happy, and healthy. In my home, I make sure that I always know where my pets are and that I stay close-by to make sure that they stay safe and ultimately are not getting into any trouble.
“I forgot to confirm where my cat is and left. I was really worried if I lock him somewhere! Brianna responded the request in short time and helped to confirm my cat is safe. Thanks so much!”
“Carrie is absoutley wonderful! She goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is taken care of! My pup adores her and is always thrilled to see her! Thanks for all you do Carrie!”
“I can't recommend Teaghan enough! I am a first time Rover user and I was super anxious about it. I had another sitter booked originally but they were flaky so I had to find someone else last minute and Teaghan was sooo easy to work with and accommodating. I am so happy I found her and would definitely use her again in the future :)”
“Allyssah was great with my three dogs during her drop in visits. She took the time to meet them while I was home prior to the visits and was very friendly and asked good questions to make sure she was prepared. She was very punctual and sent lots of pictures and updates. I would book her again!”
“Our pups love Montana! She took great care of our two girls and we loved the pics. We came home to two very happy and well-exercised pups. Thank you for accepting such a short notice booking!”
About: I have dog sat multiple dogs at one time for as long as a week long stay. I am very active and enjoy outside walks, and I am able to keep up with fast, strong, and heavy pets. I have always loved animals and am happy to sit and pet a dog or cat for hours. I am a full time student with a low commitment part time job looking for a way to fill my time with work I am passionate about which is spending time with animals and helping owners! I prioritize integrity, safety, and communication. My goal is to keep pets safe and owner’s minds at ease. I enjoy quality time with pets and want to make your life easier!
“Jillian was a great sitter for my cat Nemo! She dropped in one him daily and sent me photos and videos of him. She was always very responsive to my texts and we had no issues with his care. Will definitely use Jill in the future!”
“Allison went above and beyond for my pup, while she was scared of fireworks she sang a brave girl song and was very detailed in the cards left I would definitely book with her again and she has 100% of my trust”
About: I’ve dedicated my life to working with animals and just completed my Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science at UConn. Since I was 10 years old, I have fostered orphaned kittens and pregnant mother cats and volunteered with the Mansfield Animal Shelter. I have also worked in a veterinary clinic, a kennel environment, and raised two guide dogs through a professional guide dog program. My experience includes caring for newborn kittens, senior pets, administering medications, puppy socialization, and handling dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I have trained and handled dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, including my own workingline German Shepherd. I am comfortable using and properly implementing a variety of training tools and understand the importance of tailoring care and training to each individual dog. Whether your dog is reactive, nervous around new people, or a social butterfly, I will provide patient and attentive care. I have a flexible weekday schedule and am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. While I am sometimes busy on weekends, I am usually local and may have availability depending on the booking. I pride myself on providing dependable care, maintaining routines, and keeping owners updated throughout their pet’s stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. With experience in veterinary medicine, guide dog raising, animal shelters, and fostering, I understand the importance of maintaining routines and recognizing changes in behavior or health. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and training. Whether your dog is reactive, shy, energetic, or highly trained, I tailor my care to their individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, positive, and stress-free experience while you’re away.
About: Dogs have been one of the great loves of my life. I've been taking care of them, and doing life with them for years :) I currently work full time and will be a graduate nursing student in the fall, pet care fits into my routine as a side gig! I care for pets by treating them as if they are a loved member of my own family, caring for their individual needs always :)
“What can I say? Fabulous and PURRfect - she actually got our kitty to sit still long enough for a photo! She is very trustworthy! I recommend. This was my second booking!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I often pet sit for puppies only a few months old, and cared for my senior girl as her mobility decreased. I have also taken care of dogs that followed strict diets and medication routines. Providing the care that your dog requires to keep them happy and healthy is my priority! Whether they prefer to take it easy and chill on the couch, or go on long walks and play fetch for hours, I will adapt and ensure your pup is happy. I am currently finishing up my master’s degree, and am doing my internship part time during the week. My schedule is flexible for the days that I provided availability, so I am happy to adapt to your needs! I am happy to follow the safety guidelines and routines that you have set for your pet. I have a fenced in yard at my home for my pets, and they roam in and out all day. However, I have also watched pets without a fenced in yard that needed to be leashed when they go outside so I am happy to adapt and supervise your dog just as you would! If you prefer to crate your dog when they are indoors, I will happily do so as well so as to not impact your pet’s sense of normalcy and the rules they need to follow. If you prefer your dog to be alone on walks, I’d be happy to walk them in places where there are few other people or dogs around so that they feel safe.
About: I’ve taken care and done pet sitting for years since I was 16. I also take care of my mother’s elderly dog and my 7 year old golden doodle. After being in corporate finance for the last 10 years I have decided to take a break and go back to school to pursue other passions. I have a flexible schedule and I am ready to accommodate your pets needs! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to accommodate your pet’s schedule! I can offer morning, afternoon, or night walks. I live in a wonderful condo community with plenty of walking trails and a good sized condo that they are free to roam! I can accommodate special requests to make your pet’s stay more comfortable!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Norton
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.
This is our second time having Mandy look after our cats while we've been on a trip. She does a great job with communication and checking on the house. She goes the extra mile and goes above and beyond. We really appreciate her service. We will be looking to hire her again on our next trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Norton on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 10,572 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Norton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Norton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
