“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”
“After having a family emergency, I had reached out in extremely short notice to see if Lianna could watch my one year old pup for two nights. She gladly accepted and assured me he was in good care upon drop off. Lianna was great about sending pictures and videos of Zyon which brought more reassurance. Overall would rate this a great experience and I will definitely be sending my puppy back.”
“This was my wife and I first time using a dog sitter. I was referred to Rover by my sister. We found Sabrina when we filtered our search criteria for our dog. Sabrina was awesome from scheduling to the time she watched our fur baby. Sabrina was very easy to communicate with and provided awesome pictures and timely updates on Henry. We will definitely be reaching back out to Sabrina for futures dog sitting needs. “Thank you Sabrina!””
“Cooper had a great stay with Debbie and Will! He was there for a week and came back very happy. Debbie communicated well and sent pictures and videos that were fun. Cooper enjoyed playing with their sweet dog Reba, and it was clear they treated him like family.”
“Jess provided daily updates with pics and my dog looked content. He came back home in good state. Thank you to Jess and family for taking such good care of Chewie! Will definitely be coming back for future dog sitting ❤️”
“From the moment I reached out to Mariah inquiring about sitting services for our dog - Mariah was quick to respond, kind, open, welcoming and accommodating. Mariah provided boarding for our dog for 5 days and she provided daily updates and photos which made us feel at ease. We opted for the pick up and drop off service and she was punctual on pickup. Our flight was delayed by 3 hours and Mariah was understanding and dropped our dog off at midnight! I will definitely be using her again in the future. She was a pleasure to work with. THANK YOU!”
“We recently used Soonok as a dog sitter for the first time to care for our senior terrier, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Naturally, we were a bit anxious leaving our older dog in someone else’s care, but Soonok immediately put us at ease. Soonok was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, taking extra care to accommodate our dog’s needs and pace. What really stood out was the consistent communication—we received daily updates and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was in great hands and being treated with genuine care and affection. We’re so grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Soonok to others. We will very likely be using her services again in the future.”
“Angela was such a great dog sitter- she and Kona made Honey feel right at home while I was away! She was willing to be flexible with me and my hectic schedule and sent lots of updates and pics throughout the stay! 10/10”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
“Mike & Ja Hyung were the best dogsitters!! My dog Poluna is a small Shih Tzu-Maltese mix and honestly thinks she’s bigger and better than everyone, so she’s not always the friendliest. But Mike & Ja Hyung were so sweet and let us stop by ahead of time so our dogs could meet—and everything went great! Their dog Bendy was so sweet and calm, he was exactly what Poluna needed to learn how to be friendly and adjust to a new home for a few days. One of my family’s biggest concerns is making sure Poluna is safe and secure wherever she stays—and also that the place is clean because she will literally eat anything off the floor. Mike & Ja Hyung totally reassured us that if the dogs were outside, someone would always be with them, and that they were going to clean the floors the night before in preparation. SO AMAZING. We’ve never felt so comfortable leaving Poluna with anyone. They sent updates, pics, and videos all weekend, and were just the sweetest couple. They accommodated everything we needed, and we’ll definitely be using them again. Poluna came home so tired after her weekend-long playdate with Bendy—sign of a good time!”
About: Your dog will have plenty of company, space, and attention while staying with me. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day. We have a fully fenced backyard for play, potty breaks, and exercise, plus two separate living areas so dogs can have their own space when needed. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and dogs of all personalities and energy levels, and I’m comfortable with medications, feeding schedules, routines, and dogs who need extra care or patience. My dog, Hazey Mae, is friendly and loves making new friends. I always introduce dogs at their own pace to make sure everyone is comfortable. Whether your dog is playful, laid-back, or a little nervous, I’m patient and attentive and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. New to Rover? Get $20 off your first booking with my promo code AMYF67381. I work from home, and my family is usually home too, so there’s always someone around throughout the day. Having dogs around fits naturally into our routine, and our own dog, Hazey Mae, is already part of our everyday schedule. Dogs get regular potty breaks, attention, indoor and outdoor playtime, and plenty of downtime. I’m available for boarding every day of the week and am happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, whether they’re active and playful or prefer a quieter, more relaxed day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, comfortable environment with a fully fenced yard and separate spaces when needed. I introduce dogs slowly, pay attention to their body language, and supervise them during outdoor time. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special care their dog needs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, so communication is important to me. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing how your dog is doing while they’re with me.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth, and have always had a few dogs my whole life. We fell in love with English Bulldogs and I specialize in bulldog care. But I absolutely love all dogs! I can administer medication, give baths, and troubleshoot any issues that might occur. What to expect: I will treat your fur baby exactly as you would, I will follow directions exactly as you give them. They’ll be treated with love and care. If you book for drop in care, I’ll be sure to give them lots of attention before I leave and make sure all their needs are taken care of before I leave. If you’re booking for daily walks, I will take them around the neighborhood or a nearby park to get lots of exercise and get some energy out. If you’re booking for boarding. We have a large fenced in yard and air conditioned garage with crates. Your pet will receive lots of love in our home! I’ve always been a stay at home mom. I have 3 children who are also animal lovers. I have plenty of time in my day for any schedule that fits your pets needs best. We have a very large fenced in yard, and 4 bulldogs of our own that are all rotated throughout the day from inside to outside. They get daily walks, and there’s plenty of humans to give them lots of love during their stay with us! If I’m doing a daily check in or daily walk, you can trust they’ll be safe in my care. I’m very patient and will go at your animals pace.

“Anne & Jason did an excellent job caring for our 5 pound dog. They were so good to send me daily pictures and promptly answer any questions I had. We will definitely be using them again and have already booked them for our next trip.”
“She was amazing with Mango! Mango is afraid of fireworks and they did their best to keep him calm and comforted him. Will definitely be using them again! Also they are very communicative!”
“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“We left our Koda for the first time and he had a blast. He is an anxious and clingy dog but warmed up really quickly and had a great time. When we picked him up he just wanted to go back and play, but he sure did sleep good last night. Thank you Cheby & team!”

This was our first time using Rover and our first time ever having someone dog sit for us, so we were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone new. From the very beginning, Marilyn made us feel completely comfortable and reassured. She loved our dog like he was her own, and we could tell he was happy and well cared for. She sent us photos and videos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. Our dog was so excited to be with her, and that really says it all! We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with Rover. We would absolutely trust her with our pup again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their dog like family! ❤️🐶
Sabrina was an absolute pleasure to work with! She took such wonderful care of our sweet Cooper and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. We especially appreciated the regular text updates and photos—it gave us such peace of mind and was so nice to see how well he was doing. We feel so fortunate to have found Sabrina and would absolutely book with her again. We’re already looking forward to the next time! ❤️
Jillian was absolutely amazing, I received daily updates and photos of my baby dog. Prior to his boarding, Jillian provided us a tour of his suite and the layout. We also did a a consultation to make sure Maximus would feel comfortable. Everything went smoothly and Maximus absolutely adored Jillian. She took him out on outings and was always on alert taking care of him. They even had special play dates. She cooked special meals for him and made sure he felt safe at all times. I would 1000% hired Jillian to take of my baby dog.
We were nervous to leave our baby with someone other than our parents but he had a great time and Ness sent pictures and let me know he was doing great. By the end of trip I was nervous he wouldn’t want to come home because of how happy he looked with Ness and her dogs. Would definitely use again!
Infinity did another wonderful boarding for our Ghost (Alaskan Klee Kai). Last minute, she was able to take him in again and kept him safe, happy and secure. We have asked Infinity to watch him multiple times and I really can’t say enough positive things about her. Thank you again.
Cathie and Donald(Dave) are amazing! They take care of our baby pup so well that he forgets he wants to come home! He has way too much fun and is so loved! They are truly the best and we could not ask for better sitters. They definitely treat your dog/ pet like family. They are the best!
This was my first time leaving my dog as just recently adopted and was anxious, however Ken made it easy. He sends check ins/updates to let me know how my dog is handling the temporary change. It was nice. He also worked with his routine as he could so he was not off when he returned. Everything about the experience was great. Thank you again.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Norwalk on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 10,140 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Norwalk. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Norwalk sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Norwalk landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norwalk 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 Norwalk.
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.
You and your Norwalk 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 CA 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.
