“Clinton & his son were terrific. Our dog, Ripley, came home very happy. She got along very well with their dog and they kept each other company. We also received photos while we were away which was great.”
About: I've worked as a dog bather at two different dog grooming salons, where I gained experience handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My partner and I have also owned and cared for pets our whole life—we have 5 cats and regularly dog sit our family members' dogs. My partner and I work well as a team to make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and the best care possible. We also have experience working in the cleaning industry, so we understand the importance of keeping spaces safe, clean, and comfortable for animals. We currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows us to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. We take a daily run and would be happy to bring an energetic dog along if it’s something they’re comfortable with. We also go to the gym each evening from 8–10 PM, but outside of that we are home and available. Because of our flexible routine, we can provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of love and attention to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away, at work, or just need a break for the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. We have experience caring for both dogs and cats and currently have 5 cats of our own, so we’re very familiar with daily pet care routines. We follow each pet owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, and special needs. With our flexible schedule, we’re able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Alba was absolutely amazing with our two dogs. They can be a bit anxious and she did such a sweet job making them feel safe and calm. She communicated well, sent lots of pictures, and made the whole experience easy. Her genuine love for dogs made me feel like time with her could be a treat for them too! THANK YOU!!”
“Nandita is a great sitter & we were lucky to connect with her. She has a great fenced in yard & and adorable dog that I was pleased my dog could play with. She was great with communication & we had a great experience.”
“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!”

“We are a repeat customer of Carrigan's. Selena always seems to have a good time when she stays over. She's happy, energetic and doesn't really make the mad dash for the car that she sometimes does when she stays with other sitters. I would definitely have her stay with Carrigan again.”
“Hazard was extremely communicative! We received so many pictures and updates I never had to wonder what he was up to. He was welcomed into her home with open arms. He had lots of playmates and returned tired, happy, and well cared for. Will absolutely be reaching out again next time we have a need!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for about a year now from word of mouth. I love to go on walks and playing with the animals keeping them happy and occupied. Great with time management (medicine, food time, bed time) and reliable to communicate with! I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care for the animals! I would be mainly available for pop ins and walkings Sunday-Tuesday, but I can definitely care for the fur babies in my home or yours. I can be flexible with my Wednesday-Saturday Esthetician job! I have an open yard with two dogs that they can be accompanied by (A chihuahua and pug and Pomeranian mix). I live in a calm neighborhood where I can take any dogs on walks with a leash. If I stay at your home to I would be very respectful of your house and belongings and would work with what you provide to keep your animal with the best company they can have!
“Michelle was the ideal dog sitter Enthusiastic and loving. The yard and house were big enough for our dog to enjoy. Michelle also took her to the nearby dog park each day for a fun run”
“Jorge and his two dogs were fantastic with my Bernedoodle! Excellent communication and regular photo/video updates of all the fun. My dog got lots of exercise and play time, and Jorge even went above and beyond by giving him a bath. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again!!”
“We were so lucky to find Lily! Their family was absolutely gracious and Mio had a blast! Lily provided plenty of photos and we felt confident leaving him in good hands. We will 100% book again! Thank you Lily!”
“Lena is wonderful in every respect. She is deeply caring, knowledgeable about dogs, very well organized, and has a wonderful dog of her own in a space that is clean and very comfortable for doggies. My dog Miley had the time of her life and may also have learned a thing or two along the way. Lena also sent lots of sweet pictures and videos which meant a lot as I was away for several days. It’s clear she takes great care and pride in her work with dogs. I highly recommend Lena and will use her again!”
“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.”
“Marilyn is WONDERFUL!!! She sent daily pictures and videos of my pup playing outside and snuggling. I never worried about my pup while she was in her care. My dog takes medication as well, and Marilyn had no issues administering the medication.”

“Anna is so kind and took the best care of our dog! He was very calm when I picked him up, I can tell he really enjoyed staying with her. She sent photos and updates regularly and it was great to know he was doing well while we traveled. I truly appreciate the level of care Anna provided and welcomed our dog into her household. I’m grateful to connect, and I couldn’t imagine a better person to look after our pup! Thank you!!!”

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!
John was great with our dog while we were away for vacation. We got daily videos to see how she was doing. We always saw a wagging tail! We also really appreciated that he took the time for a “meet and greet” before our vacation to make sure she was a good fit with Pizza and all the other dogs.
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! 🐾💕
Azucely S. was amazing with Chewy and took such great care of him. Her communication was excellent, and she kept me updated the whole time, which really gave me peace of mind. Chewy looked so comfortable and happy with her, and it truly felt like he was right at home. I would definitely trust her with him again and highly recommend her.
Amazing experience from start to finish. You can tell right away that they are clearly experienced dog handlers who genuinely understand and care about the dogs in their care. We felt completely comfortable leaving our pup with them. They even gave her a bath before dropping her off — such an unexpected and appreciated touch. Truly full service. She came home happy, clean, and well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again!

There are 2,358 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Norwalk. About 91% of Norwalk sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
