“I was so fortunate to have found Anastasiia to watch our dog Axel when we traveled to Europe. We had booked a sitter who cancelled - leaving us with very little time to find another over the holiday season. We had Anastasiia was reasonably priced compared to some of the other sitters available (watch out for price gouging during the holidays). I had booked someone who was less expensive but when we did the meet and great, I saw that they were using Rover to run a kennel: 10 dogs kept in an 8x6 garage - with no one home! I took a chance on Anastasiia because she is new to Rover. When I met her in her home, I could tell right away that Axel would be in good hands! The home is charming and so was Anastasiia's partner :-). During Axel's stay he got to go to the park and play and even got to go on a hike. Anastasiia asked me if it was ok to take him and how he was in the car. The pictures of their adventure made me smile :-). I was sent lots of pictures during Axel's stay - most either playing or lounging lol Axel was in good spirits when we picked him up. I felt comfortable and confident that my family member was being given good care while we were overseas. I highly recommend.”
“Jordyn and Jamie were awesome. They went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Nula, got a ton of exercise. They sent regular updates, were very responsive, and we definitely felt that Nula was in good hands while we were away. Their dog, Parker, was the perfect playmate and is wonderfully behaved. ”
“I’m so grateful for the wonderful care. Hazard not only kept him safe and loved, but also really took the time to get to know him. The thoughtful updates she sent gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she paid close attention to all the little details, which reassured me that my kitty was in the best hands. She truly made me feel at ease. 💕”
“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”
“Judy was amazing with my fur baby Blanket, she communicated with me daily and sent pictures, she cared for him as if he was her own, I can see that he was happy and comfortable in her care, she spoiled him, I will definitely use her services again!! Thank you Judy!!!”
“Devora was amazing!! She kept us updated about Max, he came back so happy and joyful (seems like he had a great time) and she was excellent with communication!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! A+++++++”
“Julie was very nice and quick to respond to any questions we had before or during our dog’s stay. She even sent some updates to let us know our dog was having a good time. Definitely recommend using her!”
“Emily was amazing! Our last minute savior when our baby needed more attention and another sitter didn’t have the time. Emily was attentive and catered to our baby’s needs. Would love to have Emily as a repeat sitter!”
“Katie had the best, most nurturing and relaxing experience! When I picked Katie up I could tell she felt secure. Katie can have separation anxiety but she was handled perfectly (walks, pets, a nap). I received lots of pictures and texts so I was comfortable too.”

About: Pets been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I am a real dog mom and my family and I have been first priority for friends and family when a dog, rabbit or another pet were in need of a home away from home. We love animals. I am pretty flexible with my schedule and can usually move things around. (And if I can’t go my daughter at 16 will be happy to be there for you and your pet.) Our own garden is fenced all around and is a great playground for all dogs. I love to bring your dog here doing the day or I’ll just stay in your home with your pet.
“Jay was awesome. He send us a picture and an update everyday. I would recommend and definitely use Jay again. Our family says: Thank you Jay for taking care of our dog-(Benny).”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Norwalk
AMAZING! We recommend Jordyn highly. She is a great communicator and kept us updated throughout. When she was worried about something she contacted us right away. She has a great home with private fenced backyard. She was kind and loving with RIley and connected to her personality right away. We will use her again for sure!
Melissa took wonderful care of my Cavapoo Mia for three weeks, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was extremely caring, reliable, and flexible, and her pick-up and drop-off service was incredibly convenient. Melissa kept me updated throughout the stay with frequent pictures and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Her backyard was also a huge advantage for Mia, since she loves running outside without leash! I highly recommend Melissa and would absolutely have her care for I again!
Wendy was an absolute blessing. I’m so incredibly thankful for the care she gave my little girl while I was recovering from surgery. I had so many things to worry about, but Boo wasn’t one of them. Wendy sent multiple updates and the most beautiful pictures every day, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone looking for someone who will care for their fur babies like they’re her own. ❤️
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.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norwalk home-away-from-home, packing:
