About: Hi! I’m a reliable and patient pet sitter with experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities..from super social and playful to more independent or shy. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I always take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with: • Feeding routines and fresh water care • Litter box cleaning and maintenance • Playtime and enrichment • Giving space to more reserved or anxious cats • Monitoring behavior and overall well-being I’m very detail oriented and will make sure everything is done exactly how you prefer. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is doing well. I do work full-time as an accountant, but my schedule is very flexible in how I structure my days around watching and caring your animals and their needs! I have a fenced in backyard where my dogs can play and relax without the worry of a leash or harness, and they have free roam of my home
“Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!”
About: Note: I will be moving at the end of July and will no longer be in the Syracuse area starting in August. I am also not currently offering boarding at my apartment because of a water leak that caused damage needing to be repaired. My name is Taryn, and I am currently a PhD candidate working from home most days. I would love to walk, watch, care for, and entertain your pets. I have experience with my own pet cats, big dogs, little dogs, dogs with anxiety and health issues, and shelter animals (volunteering). I can house sit or do drop-ins. Please do not hesitate to get in contact with me if you have any questions . I look forward to hearing from you! I currently work from home and have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I am happy to be of service when needed or on a more routine basis. I would request at least 24 hours notice; however, I may be available with less notice as well. Please feel free to check with me. I like to get to know each pet’s strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes. I am gentle with the timid types and firm but kind with the more rebellious-natured pets. My primary concern is your pet’s safety and comfort. For in-home stays, I like to keep your pet’s routine to manage their stress. I’m more than happy to go on long walks and play their favorite games.
“Ashley was fantastic! She walked our two Goldendoodles today and did a wonderful job. She was right on time, had great communication, and kept us updated throughout. This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't be more thankful for such a seamless and reliable experience. We will definitely be booking Ashley again!”
“Megan is great with Ziggy, and judging by the amazing photos, they have become fast friends. Megan has been a big help during a very busy stressful time for me. Much appreciated!”
About: I have a life of experience caring for animals including dogs, cats, newborn pups and kittens, a chinchilla, chickens, and geese! I look forward to taking care of yours!

About: Hello! My name is Sammie and I’m a recently retired college athlete and nursing student. I’ve had three dogs in my lifetime so far with many more to come. I am 22 years old and a New Nurse. Im also a huge animal lover and obsessed with every furry friend. I had two beagles growing up… and now I have a six year-old sassy, husky named Skye… we rescued Skye a little over 6 years ago when she was 1 year old. We take her on three walks a day, short car rides, dog park trips, and we give her plenty of playtime. She has a few different husky friends in the neighborhood. Although she’s a little crazy, she’s my best friend. I recently moved to Des Moines, IA from Massachusetts and I’m excited to get started helping other families with fur babies. Every morning and every evening I walk my husky. We play with her throughout the day depending on who is around in the family. She gets weekly dog park trips as well and hangs out with her friends in the neighborhood. Plenty of playtime, cuddles and walks. I know my dog loves to take long walks in the neighborhood, play fetch with her ball and snuggle on the couch when she’s tired.
About: Born and raised a dog lover! I’ve have 5 dogs throughout my life that I have loved so dearly. I’ve grown up taking care of my friend’s dogs in HS and college. I love to go on walks, so why not bring your pup with me! I unfortunately do not have my own dog at this time with my significant other, but I hope to get one soon! I am a teacher who is taking a small step back in education to focus on my health. I know your dogs will help me A LOT during this transition, and they will be under great care. I currently live in an apartment in Des Moines, so I am also available for drop-ins to ensure your pup is comfortable at home! I am willing to travel to different to parts of the metro to help you and your pup!
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I always loved being around pets, and that passion has stayed with me into adulthood. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends and family, caring for their furry family members as if they were my own. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving lots of affection, or simply keeping them company. I’ve missed pet sitting and am excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. If you're looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and who will treat your pets like family, I'd love the opportunity to help. I am currently working full time in a position that works from home. I have flexible hours and would be available most of the day for drop ins. I have two cats of my own that I love with my WHOLE heart. Currently looking to do drop ins as my babies aren’t super comfortable around other pets.
About: I’ve had dogs for over 15 years and currently have a very friendly golden retriever named Georges (after Georges Niang) who loves to play and a 10 month old kitty who I love more than anything. I’ve cared for puppies and for senior dogs with problems such as blindness and arthritis and diabetes. I’m able to give them any medication required. I am a student athlete here at The University of Montana playing basketball. I will care for cats, dogs or any other animals you might have. I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended for long! Just tell me about their usual day and we’ll make it happen! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re my own! I’m on the University of Montana Women’s basketball team and would love to work around my schedule to help out with your fur babies! In the Missoula areas! Growing up I have always had rescue animals in my home. I will take the same care if not better care of your animals because I know how hard it can be to trust someone to watch after your animals!
“Samantha has been great getting to know Nina. She has worked to gain her trust as she is a bit timid. Nina goes with her more willingly each time and is getting excited when she sees her. Samantha is great about communicating regarding when she will arrive or if there is an unexpected delay. We are very happy with our experience and will continue to have her come walk and will try daycare next!”
About: I have been working with dogs for years in daycare and shelter settings. I have managed play groups of up to 80 dogs, handled dog breeds of all sizes and ages, managed feeding schedules and medication administration, etc. I’m a college student with a pretty flexible schedule!! I would love to care for your pets, or even just take them on a walk :) House sitting and dog sitting go hand in hand - I will care for your home and for your pup all in one. Leave as many instructions as makes you comfortable!!
About: I grew up always having cats and being a total cat lady, however after bringing home my first dog ever back in 2017, I realized how much I absolutely love and adore dogs! I have experience with having a dog of my own (sadly he went on to the rainbow bridge), plus caring for my sisters dog who I jokingly say is my part time dog. I also have experience with all the dogs I’ve gotten to meet through Rover. I would love to have a dog of my own again but I don’t have the proper time or space to have one right now, so I’m looking to get my fix by spending time with your dog! I’m currently available any time during the week or weekends while I’m taking a break from my regular 9-5. I will be very attentive to your pets needs and making sure they are comfortable, this includes lots of outdoor time with nice walks, and giving them lots of love and attention(not to mention treats!). :) I’m taking a break from my normal 9-5 gig so currently I have availability any time of day or night any day of the week to be able to care for your furry friends:) I live in an apartment with 2 cats so any pets that stay with me need to be familiar and friendly with cats. I do have a spare bedroom that I can use for separation purposes however prefer to be familiar and good around cats if I will be watching in my home. If house sitting I will be available to stay in your home and will send lots of pictures and updates along the way.
“Jerad is the most flexible and attentive sitter I've had the pleasure of working with. He'll do his absolute best to get a feel for your dog and work with their particular temperament and needs, and he always rights the most detailed reports of every walk or visit. Highly recommend for your next doggy needs!”
About: I've had dogs and cats for most of my life that are treated as family. Buster, my 16 year old Border Collie mix, recently passed. My family consists of several grand puppies who come for visits. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I am home most days all day long, with occasional appointments. I would love to go for walks with a dog. I have a pet friendly home with a large fenced yard. I have several grand puppies who visit. I love dogs and would welcome them into my home as part of my family.
About: Prices are negotiable. I understand when having multiple dogs it racks up to a lot. I am willing to work with you on prices. I’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old. My love for dogs is never ending. I have been taking care of other peoples dogs since I was 19. I’m available to stay with your dog. I am not available to bring your dog to my house. I believe dogs do best in their own environment with all their toys and their own area. I currently work full time for a daycare in Polk City. I work 10hr days Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On the weekends I like to take my sister’s dog for a walk unless I am watching someone else dog I will take that dog on a walk if able to. Majority of the dogs I watch stay at home because they know that area better. Anxiety is very common in dogs that get boarded or are away from home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Norwalk is $8 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $4 and $16 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,050 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Norwalk. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Norwalk. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Norwalk after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norwalk. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
