Wonderful person to watch my cat! Followed all of my instructions and my cat, who is very shy, actually came out and started to interact with her by the end of the visit.

Meghan took great care of Dakota while we were away for a few hours. She gave her lots of frisbee time, and breaks and water to cool her off because it was a hot day. She is very caring and a true dog person. :-) Dakota was so relaxed and happy when we arrived home. We found Meghan at the last minute and are so grateful that she was available. Such a relief. We highly recommend her.

About: I’ve cared for animals since a young age, mainly dogs and cats. I have a rescue dog of my own who I trained myself, as well as a senior cat with medical needs who is thriving. My neighbors trust me to care for their dogs with medical needs while they are away, and most recently, I started walking dogs during the day time and offering house visits while pet owners are away at work or vacationing. I love spending time outdoors and getting to know your pet and offering them the critical exercise and companionship they need to live a long healthy life! When my cat was young, we had the most wonderful cat sitter who was very in tune with animals and I said I wanted to start my own business one day like her. Well, here I am! I look forward to hearing from you to discuss your pet care needs. I enjoy walking dogs or making house visits during the week days when my children are at school (mornings, mid day, and early afternoon). I’m also available for evening and overnight visits in your home on a case by case basis. I’m looking to find clients who I can grow with and essentially become a part of the family. For now I’m offering care in your home or visits with your dog like walks, hikes, or play groups at an outdoor dog park. For overnight visits, I recommend visits 3 times in the day: once in the morning time for breakfast and a walk, once again in the afternoon, and then a night time visit as well before bedtime.

I had an excellent experience with this dog sitter! She was not only friendly and prompt but also extremely attentive to my dog's needs. I felt confident leaving my furry friend in their care knowing they would receive great attention and care. I highly recommend Jacqueline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable caretaker for their pet.

About: I have watched dogs all sizes, breeds, and personalities since I was 16 for neighbors, friends, and family. I have fed pets, taken pets for walks, and hung with them. I do work full time but I’m around weekends, week nights, Thursdays, and Tuesday mornings. I have two dogs myself so I know how to manage time. I can crate your dog, make sure they are in a comfortable environment, make a close relationship with our dog and have no danger around them.

About: I've been taking care of my orange cat (Pete) and walking my neighbours dogs since I was 13, and I always love meeting and learning about people's pets! I've found that if you love and respect animals, they will often respect and love you back. I can't wait to meet your best friend! I usually get up pretty early, and have a good amount of time on my hands at the moment. I will always make your pet my number one priority while under my care. I'm always looking to build a strong relationship of safety and trust with both pets and pet parents. Always let me know what I can do to give you the most peace of mind during any stay.

About: I've taken care of so many animals throughout my life. Whether it's a neighbors dog or a family friends hamster, I have always been the first to raise my hand to say I would love to. I'm in nursing school so I have a compassion for anything that has heartbeat and even stuffed animals. I will make sure any animal I take care of or walk or encounter has the best experience. I'm at nursing student, Merrimack College, and being able to take care of any pet would allow me to debrief and see a cute pet. My dog gets walk very frequently because we live in an apartment. I love hiking so he also goes with me. Being outside whether the weather it is.

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals of all kinds. Whether it’s a shy cat, a bouncy pup, or a curious wild visitor, they feel safe with me—and I feel at home with them. I offer flexible availability for drop-ins, overnights, and extended stays. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits us both and gives your pet consistent, loving care. I care for your pets and your home with total respect—keeping routines consistent, energy calm, and your space safe and tidy. With years of hands-on experience and a natural connection to animals of all kinds, I treat every pet like family and every home like my own. I’m available for drop-ins, overnights, and extended stays, and I’m comfortable giving medications, handling senior pets, or simply being a steady, reassuring presence. Whether your pet needs quiet companionship or playful engagement, I adapt to their energy and make sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Your peace of mind is always my top priority.

About: Hello! My name is Andie and I work at VCA South Shore Hospital in ER, ICU, Neurology and Internal Medicine as a technician assistant and have prior TA experience at Old Derby Animal Hospital. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I previously went to the University of Arizona for 3 years studying animal sciences and transferred my junior year to return to the East Coast. I also have some experience with a handful of farm animals from my time at the UofA. Additionally some of my experience comes from working on home farms taking care of horses and alpacas; all of this meaning my knowledge of animals is extensive to give the best care for your furry friends! I have always had the passion for animal care and medicine which is why after graduating I will be continuing my schooling to be a CVT and hopefully someday a veterinarian. A few years back I had participated in boarding through Rover, but after a hiatus I decided to come back to continue with walks and drop in visits because even outside of my main job I love to be around animals! We have a small family dog, but other than that I have rescue retired racing greyhound, Moose, who has travelled far and wide with me. My pets also include many fish, a leopard gecko, chickens and ducks! All this being said, I would absolutely love the opportunity to be alongside your best friends and scratch the itch to spend as much time with animals as I can! I am available Tues-Fri after 4:00 and free Sat, Sun and Mon! I am currently working full time at VCA Animal Hospital where I can do drop in visits before and after work depending on location, Sat, Sun and Mon can be anytime. I can also do any walks after 4:00 Tues-Fri and anytime on weekends. I take care of your pets like they are my own. I think every one has their own needs and personality, there is no "one size fits all" for any animal. I try to learn your pet on an individual level!

About: I have experience caring for both energetic dogs who need structure and movement, as well as more sensitive pets who benefit from patience, gentle routines, and clear communication. I’m organized, responsive, and great at managing schedules—skills I use every day in my professional work and bring directly into pet care. I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure owners feel fully informed while they’re away. I’m a reliable and attentive weekend pet sitter based in Boston, and I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and caring environment for every animal I look after. I work a full-time remote job during the week, but on weekends I’m fully dedicated to pet care—whether that means long walks, dedicated playtime, or simply keeping your pet company and relaxed at home. As someone who values consistency and trust, I make sure every pet gets thoughtful, individualized attention. Whether your pet needs slow, steady walks, a playful activities, or lots of affection, I’m here to help your weekend feel stress-free. If you’re looking for a sitter who is responsible, communicative, and truly loves spending her weekends with animals, I’d love to support you and your pet!

About: I have never lived in a household without pets before, so taking care of cats and dogs (and fish) is something I’ve done my whole life. I’ve owned three black labs and multiple cats over the years. I especially love big dogs, but am a big fan of all animals! Besides Saturdays, I am available any day and any times through the summer. I start law school at the very end of August and will have less availability at that time, but I will still be looking for work! I love to keep my pets active and enriched, whether that means going on a walk, playing fetch in the yard, or going to the beach for a swim!

About: Hello! I am an animal lover with extensive experience caring for my own dog for 13 years, for children of young ages, and of elderly adults with cerebral palsy. I am extremely responsible, timely, and organized - traits that are required for success in the field I primarily work in (Medical Education/Biomedical Research). Additionally, I am very compassionate and loving towards animals, and I deeply respect and understand the bond pet owners have with their animals. I would be so thrilled to spend time with and get to know your pet! I currently work remotely, so I am consistently available for pet care! I tend to go to the gym in the mornings and go to cafes during the day to work, but I also do work from home often and could spend the entire day with an animal if needed! I also love to be/walk outside so dog walking and potty breaks are much needed moments of relaxation from the workday! I understand the value of keep routines consistent and creating a safe space for your animal. I am very vigilant and ensure I never let an animal out of my sight while outside. I would make sure to follow all the rules outlined by owners to keep their pet safe and comfortable while in my care!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, responsibility, and attention I bring to everything I do. As a rehabilitation aide and full-time college student, I am used to being dependable, detail-oriented, and attentive to individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or relaxing at home, I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. That's why I prioritize communication, provide updates and photos, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is not just to watch your dog, but to make sure they are happy, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Dogs fit naturally into my daily routine. I work per diem as a rehabilitation aide and every other weekend as a café associate at South Shore Health, which gives me a flexible schedule. I am generally more available in the afternoons and evenings, making it easy for me to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and any meals or medications according to their schedule. I also prioritize safety, comfort, and communication by providing regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy, well cared for, and treated like family while they're away.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Norwell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Norwell on Rover is $33.3 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting 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 Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 8,934 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Norwell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Norwell 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Norwell choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Norwell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norwell. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters 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.

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.
