“Tara was great for weekly walks for our dog! She is very reliable, responsive and knowledgeable of dogs. Would highly recommend for dog walking in our area! We had a schedule change with WFH and no longer need standing weekly walks, otherwise would continue to use. Our dog loves Tara!”
“Patrick was great! I need a dog walk with kind of short notice (2 days) and Patrick was able to help! He sent me photos and let me know where they went on there walk. Will definitely be using him again! Thank you!”
“Calvin has taken my very energetic 5 month old puppy for a few half hour walks while my husband and I are at work. Calvin always makes sure to update us and send cute pics of their walk!”
About: I've had dogs all my life, various breeds. Learned alot about them over the years. Have 3 dogs currently. I have given dogs medication before I look after dogs every single day all the time. I take care of my dogs needs first before my own so I know that they have everything they need on time and are happy and content. I care and treat other people's dogs as if they were my own and I treat mine as if they are family because they are. I would bring a leash to walk the dog if the owner doesn't have one, have doggie bags, safe dog treats, and during the hot months a little water dish and water in case the dog is thirsty. It's important to always be prepared.
About: Hi! My name is Anna! No dog of my own yet, but countless happy moments caring for friends’ and family’s pups! 🐕 Dog shelter volunteering! My husband and I regularly helped at a local shelter (socializing shy dogs, and mastering the art of ‘treat diplomacy’!) Being around dogs brings me so much joy, and I’d love to share that energy with your pet. Your furry friend will get the same warmth I give my ‘borrowed’ pets-tail wags guaranteed! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet sitting any day of the week, including weekends and holidays. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight bookings. I'm happy to work around your pet's routine to make sure they receive the best possible care, attention, and love! 🐾💛 Weekends (Sat-Sun): 🕒 Full-day availability. My calendar is updated weekly - feel free to ask about specific dates! While I can’t care for pets in my own home, I provide attentive and customized care in yours - whether it’s crating for safety, gentle baths, or sticking to their routine. Your pet’s comfort and security are my top priorities, and I’ll always keep you updated with happy pet photos! 📸
“Tanya did a great job taking our boxer Nala on daily afternoon walks. She was great at communicating any changes in her schedule with me, flexible to meet my needs to care for Nala, and always polite and professional. Thank you so much for you help Tanya! It was comforting knowing that Nala was in good hands while we were away.”
“Kate did an amazing job walking our senior dog! She accepted our booking at a short notice and was very friendly and easy to work with. Our dog loves her. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth was great with Feta and very flexible when it came to timing of the walk. She also ran into tough walking conditions with construction happening on our main walking street and some rain! She toughed it out and gave Feta what he needed while I was away and my wife was home with our children for the day.”
“The dogs loved Eryn as soon as they met her, and she was up to the challenge of managing their chaos. She even convinced the pup who is convinced that she will melt in the rain to go for a rainy day walk! She was communicative and flexible and we would definitely hire her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 13 years old. I gained experience through having my own pets at home as well as providing loving care for other families. I have a 14 year old Pomeranian Maltese Mix and a 4 year old cat. I can help with things like pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, giving plenty of love and attention, etc. I am working part-time, but during my free time I’d love to help care for pets because I’ve always had a love for animals and can give them the care they need to be happy and healthy! When I care for my own dog at home, I enjoy taking him for walks in areas away from too many cars like neighborhoods or dog parks (with his leash on) so that he has plenty of space to roam around and can meet other friendly dogs!
About: Hi! I’m Jenny, a nursing student and lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own senior husky, so I understand how important patience, attention, and a comfortable routine can be for every pet. I’m reliable, caring, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, lots of attention, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have and provide plenty of updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 Even though I have a pretty busy school schedule, I always make room for pets! I spend a lot of time studying, so I love having a furry study buddy nearby to keep me company. I’m happy to take study breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Having pets around makes my day better, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my routine. I care for every pet based on their normal routine and what makes them feel most comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of walks or playtime, and of course lots of attention and cuddles if they enjoy that! I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have, whether that’s medications, crate routines, potty schedules, or certain behaviors to watch for. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“She walked our dog, Louie. She was very friendly and confident with how to handle dogs - pleasant affect without getting our dog over excited, which most people do. I would easily recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
About: Hi! My name is Caitlin, I grew up with a coonhound beagle mix! He got several walks a day and I have a lot of experience through him. I’ve done house sitting, drop ins, dog walking and dog sitting for several of my neighbors dogs and through rover! When house sitting I can feed the dogs, let them out, give them walks, water plants or any other requests. I am a recent engineering college graduate now working full time Monday-Friday. I used rover during my senior year of college and loved it! I’m hoping to continue using it in the evenings and on the weekends as a side job. I like to get clear instructions from the owner on the dogs normal routine to make sure they are comfortable and treated to their normal schedule. I love giving them lots of pets, attention and walks!
“Amy is truly a dog-lover and takes the utmost care when walking or sitting my dog, Lucy. It’s apparent by just how excited Lucy is to see her! I’ve been lucky to have Amy as a neighbor, she’s very accommodating when i need to arrange a last minute walk. She always takes the cutest photos and sends updates - very thoughtful and considerate. I cannot recommend Amy enough.”
“Kendra was absolutely wonderful! She is friendly, very professional, and clearly amazing with our dog. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience stress-free. It was obvious how comfortable and well cared for our dog was with her. We will definitely be using Kendra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

Michaela was a great walker for our dog! She was nice enough to come by for a meet and greet the day before and asked great questions. The day of the walk was quite hot and Michaela was attuned to our dog’s needs and even extended the walk so Navi could recuperate in the shade. We will definitely have Michaela help again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Norwood is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $41 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 11,376 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Norwood. 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 Norwood. 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 Norwood 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 Norwood. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
