Dog Sitting in Norwood

“Elizabeth (Liz) is a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter. She volunteered to come visit them ahead of time on her own time, and befriended them (even the skittish one). She kept them fed on schedule, played with them and was a pleasure to work with all around.”

About: I’ve had a Shitzu for over 10 years and he has been my best friend! I have experience walking and taking care of family and friends dogs over the years and I enjoy every minute I have with their pet. I work full time Monday through Friday, 7am to 3:30pm but Iam available after those hours. I’m also totally free during the weekends. Iam more than happy to find ways to fit into your schedule. I have an open yard with room for fun and a park walking distance away. Iam happy to take care of your friend at any location and my goal is to take care of your dog in any way!

About: I have a strong speciality working with felines and canines. Throughout the years, having pets of my own and pet sitting, I gained hands-on experience providing safe, effective, feeding, bathing, cleaning, and enrichment (including exercise) to varying animals through positive reinforcement. Additionally, taking animal behavior courses over the year's I learned a strong understanding how to interpret and respond to different species behaviors, such as fear. I then translated this knowledge working with fearful and traumatized canines to build their trust over time and to create positive associations in my personal time. I currently have a part-time job and can ensure to make your schedule fit into mine. I'm always sure to communicate if something may come up during your booking, such as other gigs or obligations outside of work, that way there's total clarity on where and when I'll be in relation to your pet(s). I take the care of another's space very seriously, doing my best to leave things as I found them. When I’m caring for pets, whether it’s in my home or yours, my main goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I like to keep their routine as close to normal as possible — same walk times, meals, and plenty of play and cuddle time. In my home, I make sure there’s a comfy spot for naps, space to play, and lots of attention. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with respect and care. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know what makes each one comfortable and content.

“Layal was the best cat sitter I could have ever asked for! It was the first time that I had to leave my cats and they mean the world to me so I was scared! Layal provided playtime, showed up early & sent me so many pictures and videos. I had no concern while I was away because I knew my cats were in good hands. The best cat sitter ever ♥️”

“Lily was a great choice for checking in on our needy cat. She was communicative and accommodated to our requests. Will definitely be requesting Lily again!”

Kaden J.

“Chantay was professional, prompt and super responsive. She went above and beyond to help make sure our cat received his medications. Our cat is a super hider but she always was able to give him care. Would 100% recommend her to any pet owner!”

“Crumbs had so much fun with Lucas. He gave Crumbs the perfect lunch break - fun playtime, a potty break and walk, and his food. He was very understanding and flexible with Crumbs’ funny quirks and particularities around eating and walking. Crumbs is already looking forward to his next visit with Lucas!”

“Samantha was a wonderful cat-sitter. She took great care of our cats, and gave us real peace of mind that they were in good hands while we were away.”

“We use Holly nearly every time we go away and she’s always reliable! She goes the extra mile to make sure the cats are cared for and does an amazing job tidying up the cat food trash and litter. Thank you Holly!!”

Audra H.

“Was very patient with Sadie, who can be wary of strangers. Was able to be adaptable and help get her situated. Asked good questions, and was very caring.”

Leah P.

“Emily did an excellent job of taking care of our beloved fur babies. She went over and above the call of duty, heading over to visit before the snowstorm and then trekking through thigh-deep snow before the snow removal folks did their job. She sent us updates and photos every day and adjusted their food based on what she noticed. We came home to happy kitties. Thank you, Emily.”

Donna N.

“Yanira took amazing care of Ruthie! She can be shy with new people but came out for Yanira, great to get the daily photos! I would absolutely book with her again!”

Rachel P.

“Zachary took care of our pup Crumbs during the day while we were at work. He was always on time, communicative, and extremely attentive with Crumbs during their visits. Zachary made sure to play with Crumbs and get him exercise outside which we greatly appreciated! We felt extremely comfortable having Zachary take care of him - he is a very trustworthy sitter and we would reach out to him again anytime.”

Siobhan H.

“Jeff was great with my skiddish cat who usually hides from everyone but liked Jeff! Will definitely use Jeff again.”

“Sarah always takes such good care of my girls and I appreciate her so much! This is my first time having Sara sit for me and she’s been wonderful every time.”

About: Hi! I've been around animals my whole life, and caring for pets is truly second nature to me. I've owned and loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid, and that lifelong experience shows in how I care for every animal I meet. What really sets me apart is my background in pet care and dog training. I graduated from Norfolk County Agricultural High School, where I took many animal science courses. I took classes in canine behavior, pet shop management, and animal science. I learned how to handle, groom, and care for dogs of all breeds, through hands-on experiences. I bring patience, knowledge, and lots of love to every pet I care for. I am college student spending the rest of my summer from July 8 until August 22 at home. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m already helping my family take care of our own dog, so adding more pets to my routine fits in perfectly! I am available Monday through Friday and am very flexible throughout the day, so I can easily accommodate different schedules and needs. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I stay in tune with how they are feeling, making sure they’re well-fed, clean, healthy, and getting plenty of rest and outdoor time. At home, I provide a pet-friendly environment. I’m also lucky to live next to a reservation with trails, open fields, and ponds and streams perfect for dogs who love to explore nature. I enjoy taking pets on these little adventures to keep them active and mentally stimulated. When it comes to pet care, I always treat each animal as if they were my own.

About: I am a behavioral scientist work in a hybrid model (go to office once a week) that spend a lot time researching about healthy living for my own furry baby and others🫶 I pay great attention to my dog's nutrient so that I cook fresh/organic for him and take him to hiking and dog parks. I would make beef and chicken jerky, cheese and carrot biscuits as treats. I basically moved from an apartment to a house for the sake of my dog. He was a 7-week puppy weighted 3 lb when I met him and now he’s 9 years old and 22lb, happy and healthy and kissed everyday! Now we moved together to New England since I graduated from my PhD program. Dogs love me but I adore them more!! I welcome house sitting for your furry friend 🙌👍 I’m a behavioral scientist for preventive oncology (in human) and I work a hybrid job, which means my schedule is quite flexible and I’d like to give my own dog potty breaks every 3 hours during the day. These breaks are often well deserved mental relief for myself between meetings as well. Love to cuddle, giving our fur babies a lot of love. Now I live in a one-bedroom apartment so the capacity for boarding is limited, but I’d love to visit your pet at your place and if they like car ride, I could definitely offer walks in the woods upon prior discussion and an extra charge

About: I LOVE animals, dogs, cats, birds, you name it, any type of pet and am naturally extremely caring for them, regardless if they are my pets or not. I'm currently home from graduating college and was looking for something i would enjoy doing, and i LOVE animals, and i got introduced into Rover. I've had a dog my whole life and trained them, and would love to help other's people and their pets! I have a dog, that I feed, walk and play with everyday. I walk him for at least 15 minutes, but he likes being out and playing catch, or even play inside.

“Thank you Emily for taking such good care of Quinnie. Happy we have found a friendly and reliable sitter Hope Quinnie. Will book again when we travel”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their routines, reading their body language, and giving them personalized attention and care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated with photos and notes, so they feel confident and connected while they’re away. Whether it's high-energy walks, special needs, or just lots of cuddle time, I adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs. I’m currently working part time for the summer because I work in an Elementary school! Since I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to spend quality time with each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for throughout the day! I can build my schedule around the needs of your pets, wether it’s morning feedings, midday walks, playtime, or evening check-in’s! I will always make sure your dog is safe, and not in any risk of getting out. I will strictly follow clients rules for the dogs to ensure their safety.
