“Windy arrives on time which is very important to us! The dogs love her which is also important. Thank you so much Windy! We will schedule you for the future. I highly recommend Windy. -Sue”
“Lindsay is the best! She took care of our Clark so tenderly and completely! We felt lucky in knowing that she was providing our fur baby with the same love, care and compassion that we give him. We had great communication during her visits and outside of the drop-in timeframes as well. Lindsay was prompt for each of the scheduled arrivals and went above and beyond with her services! The pictures she captured and sent to us are adorable! She's a sweetheart and Clarky misses her! 💕”
“Keerie took great care of my three kitties! She communicated before and during/after the visit and sent photographs to help put me at ease! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”
“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with our experience with Zoey! She was very communicative, trustworthy and kind to our kitties. She sent photos everyday, even of our super scaredy cat who hid in tight spots during visits. She made sure everyone was doing well and gave pets to the ones who came out of hiding for attention. Zoey is our first pick for our next pet sitting service need!”
“KySonna was absolutely fantastic! She completed drop-in visits this week for our three dogs, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable handling multiple dogs at once. She sent thoughtful updates and photos during each visit, which gave us total peace of mind, and it was obvious our dogs were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. KySonna followed instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were safe, loved, and exercised. We would 100% book KySonna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring Rover sitter. Our dogs adored her!”
“Peyton did a great job taking care of Blue. She made sure he received his medicine and meals in a very timely fashion. I could count on her while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her!”
About: Since I was young, I’ve always had a pet. After college I finally got a pet of my own and they’ve just multiplied over the years! Dogs are my specialty - I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family & I’ve trained both of my dogs since they were puppies. I’d say what sets me apart from others is that I have plenty of time in the afternoons (and any time during the weekend) to take care of your pup because my job ends early in the day unlike a 9-5 job. I have years of experience under my belt and I just really love animals. Always have and always will! As a teacher, I am always home early on the weekdays so I’ll have plenty of time every afternoon to play with & walk your dog! I am available any time on the weekends and I can board Fri-Sun. My husband and I have a big fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! We are firm believers in lots of walks, lots of playtime, and positive reinforcement. If needed, we can provide a crate as a safe space for your dog to lounge in. Our dogs are our children and we will treat your dog with the same love as we treat our own :)
About: I have been taking care of dogs most of my life. I am 57. I have done dog training and agility with 2 of our dogs. I have had a puppy and dealt with Senior dogs too. I love to give our dog lots of attention with play time, walking and outdoor activities. I love to take walks and go to other parks too. With the owner's permission, I love to go to the dog park-Bow Wow dog park and the Akron Dog Park. I give your furry one lots of attention with play time-throwing toys-playing fetch with a ball or toy. Letting them have backyard time. We have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to be free. I also will brush your dog and pet them and give them attention, while you are away. I will treat your dog like he/she is my own dog. Another place I will take dogs is Petsmart or Pet Supplies Plus for social interaction and exercise. I am at home and available most days. We have a 20 year-old Son, who also loves dogs! My Husband helps out too, with walks and letting the dogs out in our backyard and is a dog person. Currently, I am not working. I have a knee problem and some medical issues that prevent me from working full time. I have plenty of time to take care of your dog. We love to take walks and go to the dog parks. However, if you prefer your dog not to go to the dog park, that is fine. We could go on walks and let your dog go outside in our backyard. We have lots of dog toys, bones, balls, etc... I do have a walk thru pet gate that I set up to block off the kitchen and dining room area. We will feed our dog and your dog separately in separate rooms. I love to brush and pet dogs. If needed, we could bath your dog too. We are a "dog" type family, that is our preference. We have had fish, hamsters and also a guinea pig in the past. I grew up with a cat in our home, as a child. We will throw ball and toys for the dogs and play with your dog. We have a small crate that is in our garage, however we don't usually use the crate. If we leave the home, depending on the situation, if your dog is destructive or chewing on furniture or other items, then we will crate your dog when we leave for church or a short errand. If you have a calm dog and the dog is not destructive and well mannered, then your dog could stay in the family room area, unless you prefer that your dog is in his crate. We will use 2 dog gates near our steps to go upstairs. We prefer that our dog and other dogs do not go upstairs. As a House Sitter, I would do any needed cleaning up of any messes I make. I would be bringing my own food, as I am gluten free and dairy free. The only thing I would need is some freezer and frigerated space for my food. I would follow your normal routine for your dog or dogs. I do have occasional Dr and therapy appointments, fyi. We have a home in Akron, with a fence in our backyard. We live near a forest, it is a quiet area. We have a small neighborhood, where the street dead ends to a forest. We don't get drive thru traffic, that use our area as a "short cut".
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. Grew up with horses, dogs, cats, chickens, donkeys etc. I have always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being that trusted person with others fur babies. I truly see pets as family and treat them with the same care, patience, and respect I would give any person. I will treat your dog like family — because that’s exactly what they are. I currently have a very flexible schedule and would truly love to make caring for your fur baby a special part of my daily routine. I am available for dog walking or in-home care services. While I can’t bring pets into my home due to having a cat, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home. Being in a familiar environment often helps pets feel more relaxed and secure. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your home, gates, and fencing are always secure while your pet is in my care.
“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”
About: Hi! I’m 20yrs old from Akron, OH and I’ve had pets all my life, and grew up on a farm with plenty of em running around. Whether it’s dogs, cats, fish, or rodents. I’m happy to help with it all <33 I currently work full time. My schedule varies, but I do only work mornings, so I’m fully free anytime after 12PM to 3PM depending on the day. I currently only have a dog at home, she’s my baby. I have a scheduled routine set for her. I have lived in homes with cats, and in the past I’ve had rats. My household has kept a calm playful energy.
“What an awesome experience! Would definitely use Susan again! She was such a good communicator, and my pups loved her! Always makes me nervous to trust someone new with my “family”, but knowing that they were safe and well cared for will definitely make it easier! I will be rebooking for sure!”
About: i’ve had plenty of experience with animals growing up, i’m getting more into training pups. so if that’s something you’re looking for please let me know. i’m very trustworthy, and enjoy spending time with animals. i work full time 6:30am to 3pm. so evenings and weekends i am usually free for all your animals needs! please don’t hesitate to ask me anything! i only do services outside of my home because i am not able to have pets in my apartment complex, i am able to take them to parks or walks around the neighborhood.
About: I have house sat with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds and horses in the past. I look forward to meeting your pet and hopefully exceeding your expectations of service. I enjoy meeting new furry friends. I work full time. My afternoons and evenings are open for pet care jobs. With advance notice, other schedule needs can be discussed and hopefully accommodated. A dog walking visit would involve checking on the pet, providing water or food if requested and making sure the pet gets a bit of attention and care during the walk session to maintain a good experience for your pet. I usually talk a bit and encourage good behavior and cooperation. Patience and not rushing the interaction is important. A brief walk would be around 15 minutes.
About: I’ve basically been surrounded by dogs my entire life, so at this point being around them feels less like work and more like a lifestyle choice I never really got to vote on. I’ve had dogs all my life, and somewhere along the way I became the person people trust when they need a dog sitter. Whether it’s for a weekend, a vacation, or just a long day away, I’m used to stepping in and making sure dogs are safe, cared for, and probably a little spoiled. I also have hands-on experience working in a kennel, which taught me a lot about dog behavior, routines, and the very impressive range of chaos one animal can create before 8 a.m. Working in that environment helped me get comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I learned how to handle nervous dogs, high-energy dogs, stubborn dogs, and the occasional drama queen who acts like going outside in light rain is a personal attack. It also taught me the importance of staying calm, being observant, and keeping a good routine. Because I’ve always had dogs and regularly dog sit, caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I know that every dog is different. Some want nonstop play and attention, and some just want a cozy spot to nap and someone nearby who understands that they are, in fact, royalty. Overall, dog sitting is something I genuinely enjoy. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, quirks, and little habits. Spending time with dogs never really feels like a chore to me. It’s fun, rewarding, and usually comes with a lot of tail wagging, a little bit of slobber, and at least one moment where I seriously question who is in charge. This is my full time job, so I have plenty of time and attention to give your baby the best care they could possible receive! I have one friendly dog that loves to keep others company. He's been known to snuggle smaller dogs in their beds! I offer tons of park trips and outdoor time while also providing mental enrichment for those lazy pups.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it’s been a long one!! I’ve also had cats! I believe any animal is a family member and I also believe they understand us as their ‘humans’. I will take care of your animals as my own, which is spoiled! Currently I work part time and have time to dedicate to your pets. I will have more time soon as I’m going to retire!! I will provide quality care and time to your pet(s). I will watch and care for your pet as my own. I have one dog, poodle mix and she is very spoiled! Your pet will live like her with walks, treats, sleeping on the bed, laying on the couches, and getting tons of pets!!

Sheri was an absolute pleasure to work with and Zeta really liked her, which is saying something. Zeta is particular about her humans. Sheri was prompt with correspondence and with her time taking care of Zeta. I will hire Sheri again and I would highly recommend her!
What an awesome experience! Would definitely use Susan again! She was such a good communicator, and my pups loved her! Always makes me nervous to trust someone new with my “family”, but knowing that they were safe and well cared for will definitely make it easier! I will be rebooking for sure!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Norton is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 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 October 2026, there are 2,257 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
