“Lee K was great with my dog Bodi. Knowing that she was familiar with looking after senior dogs and giving medication made me feel comfortable using her pet sitting services. She took great care of Bodi, helping him as needed & provided me with many photos & videos so that I could see how he was doing while he was staying at her home. Upon picking him up I could tell he had a relaxing stay and was comfortable within her home and around her other dogs. We are looking forward to using Lee K again in the future!”
“Christina and Nick were great with Ollie. They updated us with photos regularly and felt very comfortable with Ollie being there. They also graciously did a meet and greet beforehand as Ollie can be selective with new people. Definitely will be booking again!”
“We are very happy to ask Maureen for our Chamonix. Maureen was waiting for us in front of her house to do a first meeting before sitting. She’s very reliable and responsible. She kindly updated how Chamonix’s doing through her stay. We will definitely return to her if we needs someone next time.”

“Marley our golden retriever stayed with Ken and Irene for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. As with previous shorter stays, Ken and Irene took great care of Marley and sent us lots of updates and photos while we were away, which was great. We love that Marley gets to stay in such a nice home environment with personal attention and care and would not hesitate to recommend Ken and Irene. 5 stars. Thanks again!”

He's an older dog and grumpy with people he doesn't know but Maria was patient and understanding and won him over right away.

Mochi had such a great time with Lee and her dogs, Milo and Mikey! Lee sent many pictures and videos throughout Mochi's stay at her house and sent me updates about Mochi's sleeping and eating habits and the toys she liked playing with while there. She made a best buddy with Milo. We could trust Lee completely with Mochi and would book her again!
We were very nervous about leaving our 3 year old mini-Golden, Cane, for the first time ever for such an extended period of time, however, Matt and Christianna made us feel very comfortable when we met them. While on vacation we received numerous photos and for a while we wondered if Cane would want to come home. It was obvious that he was having a great time and was being treated like he was a member of their family. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their dog to be loved and cared for while you are away.
I booked Hope to board Walter at her home overnight when I had a wedding to attend! We did a meet and greet before the overnight visit and Hope showed me where Walter would sleep and spend the day! It was reassuring to know she had a gate to keep Walter and his puppy antics contained. During the actual stay she sent many cute pictures of Walter enjoying his stay. She also cleaned his eyes for me and gave me some grooming tips for him! He came home looking even better than when I dropped him off!! I would definitely book with her again! :)
Sunny was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly sweet, kind, and always has such a positive attitude. Communication was excellent from start to finish—she responded quickly to every message and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was also very thoughtful and accommodating when my plans changed, and I truly appreciated her flexibility and understanding. Everything went smoothly, and I had zero issues throughout the entire booking. I could tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Sunny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My dog spent 21 days in Yuchen’s house, and he was very happy with Yuchen’s family and her dog. Yuchen sent me pictures and videos everyday: my dog running in her large backyard, sleeping on the comfortable couch…. Yuchen is kind and responsible, highly recommended!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Norwood is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $64 and $80 per night. On Rover, sitters 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 of November 2026, there are 13,698 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Norwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Norwood can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norwood home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Norwood.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norwood. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Norwood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
