“Crystal was so great checking in on my cats while I was on vacation! She was punctual and took so many fun pictures of my little babies 🥹 I’m so so happy she was able to give some love to them when I was away!!”
“Meranda did such an awesome job watching my cats. One of them is a senior who requires an inhaler. She made sure both of them were well cared for & both my cats took to her right away. The communication was awesome and 100% would recommend her :)”
“Morgan was so thoughtful and communicative and cares just as much for my pet family as I do! She was very attentive to all of the little things and quirks of my Delilah’s routine and made sure to send me photos or questions if she needed to. What a joy! I will definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Emma was very flexible, helpful, and patient with me and my kitties--especially when my plans changed. The little ones took to her more quickly than they have with others in the past which is a tribute to Emma.”
“Shanikka did a great job taking care of my cat Scout while I was away. She was very reliable even when I had to make a last minute change to my schedule. She also sent updates and pictures of Scout playing which was reassuring during my trip!”
“Nina accommodated me last minute, and did an absolutely fantastic job! she sent me photos of my dogs, and even went out of her way to give them treats at the end of the visit from her own stash when I didn’t have my own, and followed directions perfectly! she made sure to keep any temperaments that I had let her know about in mind while dropping in with them, and my babies seem so happy with her care. will definitely be using her again!”

“Melissa was absolutely amazing. She was prompt, CLEARLY concerned that she had all the information she needed to take care of my cats, and flexible about some last minute complications with my plans. Melissa sent me awesome pictures and notes each day, and had my shy, timid boy eating up her affection. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”
“Megan is an amazing sitter who took great care of my special needs dog when I had to leave town for work. She gave him his insulin without any issues and gave me great notes on how the visit went. She went above and beyond in every visit and she is at the top of my list for future needs. She really kept my heart at ease when I couldn’t be home and made me feel good about leaving him in her care.”
“Wolf did an INCREDIBLE job taking care of our babies while we were away! They took the initiative to stop by before we left for an introduction and to get to know us, which left me feeling completely confident in them. We got a great little summary every day of how the visit went and several silly pictures each day of the cats. Wolf was such a treat and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a competent and capable pet sitter!”
“Christina is great with my dog Sherman. She is reliable and communicative with what’s going on which I appreciate. Sherman is a big and active dog and it makes such a different that he can stretch his legs outside and get a potty break in the middle of my work day. I would highly recommend!”

I would highly recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring individual.”

Crystal is a cat whisperer - my incredibly shy cat Katie hides for all visitors. But she finally emerged for Crystal! Thanks to Crystal’s consistent effort to show Katie that she’s a friendly and non-threatening helper over the course of visits during the last several months. Thank you for going above and beyond, Crystal!
We are a repeat client for life with Hannah because she does such an amazing job with our cats!!! Even our shy and anxious one came out for her. Hannah is excellent at communicating and we get so many updates; we feel great when we leave the cats in her care!
I cannot say enough of how much I appreciate Emma!!!! I am usually a little nervous when I leave my cat with someone new. This is my first time booking her and it definitely will not be my last. She went above and beyond to make sure Bug (my cat) was comfortable, loved, and well taken care of. She went out of her way to help with things and to ensure that Bug is safe at home. Do NOT hesitate to book her. She will take really good care of your pets ❤️❤️
Carly was so reliable and responsive when we asked her to pop in on our cat Olive over Fourth of July weekend. She let Olive in/out at the designated times and always made sure she had fresh food and water (during a heatwave). Olive warmed right up to her and allowed her to give her some butt pats. Highly recommend Carly for any cat sitting needs, will definitely use her in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Norwood on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,362 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Norwood. 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 Norwood 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.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Norwood. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
