“Carson and Shelby had ANOTHER great stay with Anner!!!! He makes sure he updates with videos and how they are doing...which is always great (unless there is a thunderstorm-and he handles them perfectly). They love being in the backyard and playing with his dog, Santi!”
“Ivon was the most perfect peace of mind. We’re new to the area and she helped us in a pinch. She communicated often — and with lots of photos! We never had to wonder what our pup was up to, the updates were so frequent and thorough. And filled his day with so many fun activities. We’re so grateful!”
“I really recommend Andrea.. she took great care of my puppy, responds quickly to messages, and always sent photos.. it's the only place I trust to leave my puppy safe. Thank you Andrea!!”
“Irene was wonderfully communicative and took great care of our Chihuahua mix. It's such a relief having someone close by who can look after our dog like her own. I definitely plan to leave Pinky with Irene again in the future!”
“Angelimar is amazing! She watched our senior dog for over a week and was fantastic with her health needs, effortlessly managing a last-minute addition to her medication schedule. Our pup absolutely loved her stay and had the best time tagging along to work with Angelimar for extra companionship. Highly recommend!”
“She is amazing! High quality great pics and great updates multiple times daily. Very great communication. I felt so comfortable leaving my pup in her care! He came back to me clean and brushed and tired and happy”
“Kya had the best time with Tina and Troy! Tina gave her the best care and sent pictures and videos of her having the best stay! Thank you so much for making sure Kya had a great stay and for making us feel so comfortable! 10/10 Recommend!”
“Scarlet loved her stay with John! This was our first time using Rover and John quickly put us at ease that Scarlet was in good hands. She got plenty of time to play at the park and his backyard. He also provided regular updates on how she was doing and amazing photos which we really appreciated.”
About: I have a huge passion for dogs and know the struggle of work/life/pup balance. I have had two rescue pitties in my life and worked closely with dog trainers and skill classes to learn new techniques. I have two nephews and love to have them teaching dogs! I am self employed so I have a flexible schedule throughout the day, I also have the ability to work from home when needed incase I believe in positive reinforcement and also care. I have two nephews and I consider pets to be treated just like them! I will dedicate time to make sure the pets are acclimated to the environment
“Elaine is an amazing dog sitter. I left my 1 year old boxer with her for a weekend and I must say he acted like he didn’t want to leave. I received pictures of him playing with the other dogs and he looked so happy. I can tell he got enough exercise that he needs. The dogs got along with each other and she is well experienced with dog sitting. She has a great fenced in backyard and dog pool for the pups as well! Highly recommended!! Thank you for watching Kane this past weekend!”
“Elvia and her family are wonderful. Chloe had the best time!!! Chloe is definitely looking forward to going back to Elvia. Thank you for taking such great care of Chloe ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Taylor is phenomenal. I felt like i was there every step with my puppy. I know Chanel fell in love with her and felt safe. I appreciate Taylor for keeping me updated and keeping my little babe happy and comfortable.”

Lily is caring and attentive. We boarded our dogs with her while we were traveling. She took excellent care of the dogs (including administration of medicine), communicated frequently and clearly and put us at ease from the start. Highly recommend! We welcome having her care for our dogs again.
Irene was wonderful with my two dogs. Even Sasha who is extremely shy warmed right up to her. Both even ran back to give her a farewell when I picked them up. I was attending a family wedding in Connecticut and I am living in Florida. Irene made me so comfortable leaving them so I could enjoy myself. She even met with me before-hand since I am from out of town and was nervous leaving them. It was a great experience for my pups and myself. thanks Irene and Rover!
Olivia was extremely professional and took great care of my dog. Since it was my first time booking with her, I really appreciated the daily updates and photos she sent while I was away on vacation. She made me feel comfortable and reassured knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! 🐾💕

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Norwalk on Rover is $56.71 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,301 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.
96% 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 CT 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.
