“Lissi was able to accommodate me on short notice. Upon meeting, she took her time to really get to know my dog, her preferences, how she plays, what treats/toys she likes, etc. Lissi also sent multiple photos and videos of Rumi and provided updates on her potties and even worked on teaching my dog new tricks! She went above and beyond and her love for dogs was very apparent :) Highly recommend to anyone looking for dog sitting/walking/boarding services!”
About: J’s Dog Sitting In-Home Day Care 🐾 Hi, I’m Juliana — a devoted dog mom and work-from-home professional offering small, structured in-home daycare and personalized care. I share my home with my two boys: 🐩 Milo – my calm, gentle 12-year-old rescued poodle mix 🐶 Santo – my friendly, playful Aussie Doodle With 9+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels, I prioritize a calm, safe, and positive environment where every pup feels comfortable and loved. ✨ What You Can Expect: • Small group setting (maximum 2 guest dogs) • Structured walks, feeding routines & supervised play • Positive reinforcement & behavior awareness • Medication administration if needed • Daily photo updates & clear communication • Consistent supervision while I work from home 🐾 Midday walks & drop-in visits available Monday–Wednesday (12:30–1:30 PM) in Norwalk 90650 & nearby areas.

A morning walk is included during my first break, and additional walks can be arranged upon request.

I keep a small group setting (maximum 2 additional dogs) to ensure calm, structured care and proper attention. A meet & greet is required to make sure everyone gets along well with my two dogs, Milo (12 yr poodle mix) and Santo (1 yr Aussie Doodle). Requirements for safety: • Non-aggressive / non-reactive • Spayed or neutered • Up-to-date vaccinations (records required) • Comfortable around other dogs I collect emergency and vet information at booking and provide daily photo updates for peace of mind.

About: Cat mom to two spoiled kitties and trusted dog-sitter for my family’s allergy-prone pup. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or sticking to a detailed routine, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. No school, no 9-5. I work from my phone and laptop, and am in control of my own work schedule. I'm venturing into pet-sitting gigs to help fund my entrepreneurship journey. As a fellow pet owner, I know that the paranoia is REAL! I will always send pictures and videos, bug you with questions to be extra careful, and make the effort to build rapport and trust with my clients.
About: Working with animals have always been my passion ever since I was little, and now I have the privilege to obtain a degree in animal science spring ‘27! I have dog sat for friends and family for certain occasions, even have been a vet assistant at an animal clinic:) I have been working there for about 2 years now, I am trained to give vaccines, medicine, you name it! I am currently taking a break from vet med, and trying out Rover for the first time, but doesn’t mean my love for animals is gone. That means I am more than qualified to make sure your furballs are happy and taken care of <3 I'm currently not working my vet assistant job right now so that means I have plenty of time during the morning or afternoon for walks and drop ins. We remodeled our backyard with fencing all around, we only have 2 cats at the moment but the house has plenty of space for them to play and hiding spots to sleep:) I am not boarding at this time but hopefully will be opening it up soon !
“Bonnie was great with my dog, she was right on time for his visits and I could tell from the photos she would send that he was having fun. Would definitely reach back out to her again for taking care of my dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Cleo was great to work with. She was super responsive and attentive to my cat. My Goldie typically doesn’t like people. She hides. I love that she provides pictures. Goldie didn’t hide and watched Cleo. That’s really a good start. This service was easy to use and I will definitely use Cleo again.”
“This is the 3rd or 4th time having Angela do drop in visits with my 2 dogs. She is freakin great. My dogs love her. Finally got to meet her prior to this visit and she is very nice, responsive and reliable. Hire her!”
About: I help animals everyday as a veterinary assistant; I can also speak and understand fluent spanish. During my time working at the animal hospital I always try my best in giving them a stress free and safe environment. As a vet assistant I can take dogs on walks, give our in-house dogs/cats love & affection, keep up with the cats litter box cleanliness, and I can administer medications when needed. I've had 2 cats of my own in the past and I currently have a dog and two guinea pigs. I am also comfortable working with small animals and keeping their homes clean. Pet care fits in my weekly routine since I am a part time veterinary assistant and in my off days/school days, I have some time to fit pet care into my day. I care for pets by going slow, being attentive, giving love, being safe during walks, asking owners any other needs they need, and play time for their enrichment!
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have one dog, and three cats at the moment. I love how they show their love and how they can really brighten up our days. I work at a school as an instructional assistant. So the pet care will have to be before and after work. I have weekends off. I care for my pets at home by walking my dog, playing outside with my dog, playing inside with my cats and their toys, they love the laser toy. I feed my animals morning and night and sometimes they get an afternoon snack. I love to relax with them on the couch while watching TV. I also allow them on my bed when it’s time to go to sleep.
“Yasmin was super awesome! She took excellent care of my senior kitty. It is hard to leave our baby, but she made us so comfortable. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Stefanie is AWESOME! You cannot find a better pet sitter! My family and I were looking for a professional pet sitter who had experience working with senior dogs with special needs. My dog, Athena, requires a specific diet with medications and is almost blind. I booked Stefanie for three afternoon "drop-ins". She came a week before our booking for a meet and greet and the years of experience working in an animal hospital and taking care of pets became evident instantly. Stefanie knew how to to help my blind dog feel comfortable by allowing Athena to approach her and initiate the interactions. She is such a professional, taking notes, asking questions, and going over my instructions, helping to ensure that the drop-ins were going to go as smoothly as possible for Athena. Stefanie has a very strong work ethic. She is extremely punctual and reliable. Athena requires a specific diet and medications have to be given in a specific amount and order. Stefanie followed my instructions perfectly. She kept me regularly updated with detailed texts and many photos, including how she prepared Athena's food. She even cleaned her water bowl every day. Stefanie did so many wonderful things for Athena and went above and beyond the booking. My family and I are not only impressed with her sense of responsibility, but her patience and kindness towards our precious girl is priceless. Athena showed how much she trusts Stefanie by wagging her tail when she arrived and allowing Stefanie to give her a belly rub. This is huge for a blind dog. Athena was even looking for her the next couple of days. Clearly, Athena trusted Stefanie with her care and so do I. My family and I plan to book Stefanie again and again! She is a rare gem and (we are) so grateful to her!”
About: Hi. I had dogs for the last 23 years. My children love dog sitting along with myself. The dogs have plenty of exercise and hugs. We never had a complaint when dog sitting for our friends and family. We have two teenage twins & enjoy staying home. We have a complete fence huge backyard. We are also able to board pets during the week but would be in backyard while we work. We are usually home by 5pm. In case you are comfortable with that schedule as well an needed boarding during the week. We only have one pet pug that is super friendly and does well with other dogs. She is 7 years old. We are at work from 8-5pm. We love staying home. We are able to board during the week if you are comfortable with your pet being in the backyard in a very secure area. The fence is made out of block with two iron security gates. I have a fence backyard that provides complete safety and plenty of room to play. We could also walk the dog but as always it depends on weather. We want to keep pets as safe.
About: I understand patience in my part to build better trust and a bond. I genuinely love all animals and I see all pets as family. I did do in home care for 5 years so I understand most caretaking needs I currently help with my sister's 2 6 year old chocolate labs and 9 year old Jack Russell terrier. We have scheduled play times, feeding and potty breaks. In my case the dogs are indoor/outdoor. They like to be outdoors during the day and then inside at night. Everyone's routines are different so I would work with you, your routine and schedule to best keep pets happy and feel safe.
“We had a great first drop by with Allycia. I know I sent way too many instructions/details, but she handled everything and took a lot of stress off of us. She knows how to handle the dogs and we appreciated the updates and the pics. Thanks Allycia!”
About: I provide private, one family at a time dog care in a calm, clean, and structured home environment. I am home full time, so your dog receives consistent supervision, a predictable routine, and truly individualized attention. This is not a high volume setting. Your dog is never rotated between multiple households or unfamiliar pets. Your dog is treated like a family member, not a booking slot. Because I care for only one family at a time, each stay is quiet, low stress, and thoughtfully managed. This approach is ideal for dogs who thrive on consistency, including seniors, sensitive personalities, or those who prefer a more relaxed environment. My home is clean, secure, and intentionally set up for comfort and structure. Days include walks, enrichment, and plenty of downtime. Dogs can sleep in their usual setup or nearby, depending on what helps them feel most at ease. I stay attentive and adjust care throughout the day to match each dog’s needs. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop ins, and dog walking throughout Los Angeles and Orange County. I’m always happy to answer questions or arrange a meet and greet to ensure the right fit. I maintain a flexible, home-centered schedule and structure my days around the pets in my care. This allows me to be present, responsive, and consistent throughout the day. I follow routines closely, communicate clearly, and pay careful attention to each pet’s comfort and safety. I accept only one family at a time and maintain a clean, secure environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, follow house rules, and keep everything clean and tidy.
“I can’t say enough nice things about Cristina! She is professional and very detail oriented. It is clear that Cristina really knows what she’s doing and that she enjoys it. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to have peace of mind leaving their dog in the hands of a caring, capable professional.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I'm reliable, attentive, and make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, affection, and personalized care. I'm also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need extra patience, medication reminders, or a slower-paced routine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I can accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, while making sure each pet receives consistent attention, care, and companionship. I follow the owner's instructions closely to maintain their normal routine. I prioritize a clean, safe, and stress-free environment so pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.
About: Hi I’m Stephanie. I’m a full-time engineer and lifelong animal lover who provides dependable evening and weekend pet care. I know how important routine is, so i’ll make sure your pets receive lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and updates while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and send you plenty of photos so you have a piece of mind. Currently working but with a flexible schedule. Always open on weekends. If you need an early morning or late night available, we can schedule it out. Thanks! I live in an apartment with lots of friendly neighbors and other dogs to meet. There is a big grass field for play time and Im only a mile away from closest park.
About: I understand how nerve wracking it can feel to leave your pet with someone that you don’t even know! That’s why with me I’m gonna send daily updates, photos, and I’m gonna make sure your pet is able to stay in the same routine they’re used to so they don’t even realize that your gone! What separates me from others is the bond that I have with the pets when I care for them. I just don’t simply do my job, I go beyond the limits of what it takes to be a pet care provider. I build a bond, I show that I care, and I treat each and every pet that I meet with the love and respect that their own family members would. It shouldn’t be any other way, and when you pick me to care for your pet you won’t regret it!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Norwalk
Vyanh is super sweet and personable. Very professional and punctual. I was worried that my cats would be lonely but she took time to give them scratches. My first time having someone come into my house to feed them but Vyanh was so great. Very good experience!
We are very lucky to have found Lissi to help watch our fur baby when we are away. Our fur baby is our family, and it is very hard for us to leave her alone, yet Lissi made it easy for us to be able to enjoy our time off knowing our baby is taken care of. She is very great with communicating, very friendly, and respectful. You can tell she cares a lot about animals, and that gives us a peace of mind.
Jennifer was kind, caring, and compassionate. She treated sunny with care and love. In addition, she gave us daily updates on how sunny was doing. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. Sunny is usually afraid of strangers, but she immediately warmed up to Jennifer . Jennifer was asked to administer a complicated set of instructions for care of sunny, including handling medication and specific food. She did this very well and we are well pleased with her.
This was my first time using Rover so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Cleo was great to work with. She was super responsive and attentive to my cat. My Goldie typically doesn’t like people. She hides. I love that she provides pictures. Goldie didn’t hide and watched Cleo. That’s really a good start. This service was easy to use and I will definitely use Cleo again.
Alicia did amazing checking in on our dog! Even tho the drop in request was last minute, she still accepted and did a great job following instructions. She took him outside for restroom and played with him. He was so happy and warmed up to her almost immediately. Will definitely be booking her again !
We’ve used Michelle twice now, and she has taken great care of our two cats both times, including a week-long stay recently. She is responsible, dependable, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated knowing our cats were being well cared for and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future
Evan was absolutely wonderful with Morrie! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. Morrie came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know. Evan sent updates that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I never had to wonder how things were going. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Evan is your person. We’ll definitely be booking again!
Patricia was very patient with my dog and was on time for every visit. Ace is a little scared with a new sitter but she took her time and built a comfortable environment for him. Her communication was great. She updated me on his progress every day and sent me pictures.

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 Norwalk 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 .

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
