Personalized care for your dog or cat - Norwalk
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Norwalk
“This was our first experience with Erin and we couldn’t be happier. She took great care of Cali, kept us updated throughout the day via text and pictures. She was very flexible in our pick up time due to the circumstances with not knowing exactly when we would be back. Prompt response to our texts. Will be taking Cali back for this weekend.”
“Bridget was so easy to coordinate with and did a fantastic job taking care of Watson for a 3 night visit. Really great communication before and during the stay. Her dogs were super friendly and welcoming of Watson in their space right from the start which gave me good peace of mind while he was there. He literally didn’t want to leave when I picked him up so I think that says it all :) Thanks Bridget!”
“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”
“This was Slink’s first time away from us. I appreciated the texts and pictures. I believe he enjoyed his time with Emily and her family. Thank you for taking care of Slink!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“Kelsey took great care of my 2 dogs this week! (1 pitbull &1 frenchie) it was 5 nights , they played with them and kept them fed and happy the whole time and updated me randomly and also responded quickly if I had any questions about my babies!! She does have children which has previously been an anxiety point for my pit bull.. the kids were so friendly and patient and he played well with them all weekend! Overall really happy with the turnout and that he was able to play with children in a controlled environment! Will definitely use her if we go out of town again!🩷”
“Tiffany was very caring and loving to my "old lady" Izzy. She sent me pictures, videos and updates regularly. I have peace of mind travelling knowing that my sweet Izzy is in good hands with someone who loves her like I do!”
“Scout had the best time for his overnight stay. He was loved and cared for like he was part of their family. We got pictures of his adventures throughout his stay. Whenever we are back in town and need a sitter we will reaching back out. ❤️”
“I had the pleasure of working with Sharon, and I couldn't be more impressed with her kindness, efficiency, and genuine love for animals. She took excellent care of my dog for the day, ensuring he was happy, comfortable, and well-attended to. What truly stood out to me was her attentiveness and calm demeanor, which made the entire experience stress-free. She is clearly experienced, as evidenced by how well she handles her own dogs—a Yorkie and a Shepherd—both of whom are incredibly well-behaved and sweet. If you're looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter, Sharon is absolutely the person to trust. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of quality care for their furry friends!”
“Madison is awesome. She made my baby (Sookie) feel comfortable. It has been 4 years since we took a vacation because of a bad experience with the sitter but Madison made us feel relieved and we were able to enjoy our vacation because we felt like Sookie was in good hands and safe. I highly recommend her and I trust her with our baby girl. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Michael has been so wonderful with our Tiny Tim. Tiny loves going over to Michael’s house when we have something going on for the day. We will always use Michael as long as he still in the business.”
“Jennifer was fantastic. She spent a great amount of time getting the dogs warmed up to each other. Fritz had a great overnight stay and she kept me updated the whole stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. My life has been enriched by caring for kittens, puppies, adults, and seniors. I’ve given pills and eye drops to both cats and dogs. I love playing with cats and dogs and seeing them happy! It would be an honor to care for your pet. I’m the owner/operator of a new pet transportation business and have taken care of puppies during 200+ mile trips. This includes giving them water and food, cleaning them and their crate up (if they got carsick ☹️), sitting with them on breaks while they roamed the back of my SUV, and snuggles. I am excited to take care of fur babies at your home or mine! I have two cats of my own, a calico (7 yrs old) and a Siamese mix (6 yrs old), and they are amazing! 😻 I have a fenced in backyard and swimming pool (which can also be fenced off if desired by pet parent). I can feed, water, do short walks, and give medicine or eye drops (to compliant pets). I have 2 cats and am happy to provide care to cat friendly dogs at my home or I can come to yours. I’m available M-F 8-4 and for overnight stays.
“We found Cynthia and Tim because their location was convenient for our activities around Ohio's Lake Erie islands, but we also found their home to be a great place for our pups to hang out. The pups got lake side walks in their safe and charming community. (We are considering making their Lakeside community a destination for ourselves.) We are grateful for Cynthia and Tim's flexibility in scheduling as well. We will definitely call them next time we're in the area!”
“I felt totally at ease leaving our standard poodle with Andreja for a 4 day weekend. She sent photos of Ruby my dog, and I appreciated it and it gave me ease in leaving her. Totally trust her and would leave Ruby with her again. Vicki Hudak”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”

“Erin was great. The app showed her start and stop times for the drip-ins each time, so we looked forward to getting the notifications. She was very consistent and I appreciated her willingness to communicate throughout the entire process. I hope she's available next time we need Rover services! Thanks, Erin!”
“Sydney went above and beyond in taking care of our precious cat! Sydney met with us beforehand to meet our cat and while we were away, she provided daily updates and photos on how our cat was doing. Sydney fed our cat, cleaned her litter box, and gave her lots of love and attention while we were away on vacation. Our cat took to Sydney right away, which made it clear to us that Sydney knows how to take care of cats, as our cat tends to be shy of new people initially. I highly recommend hiring Sydney to take care of your pets!! She is amazing!!!”

It was clear our puppy was loved and cared for like family. We are beyond grateful for her kindness, reliability, and exceptional care.

“Katelyn and Andy are 11 out of 10 stars!!!⭐️ Not only did they accommodate us at the last moment when plans for a sitter situation at Cedar Point Park fell through, But they were so kind and loving to our Remi Roux!! We got continuous updates while we were at the park and felt completely at peace knowing that Remi was having the time of her life. Katelyn and Andy take their jobs very seriously and took their time acclimating Remi with the other dogs that were there for the holiday weekend. I cannot tell you both how grateful we are for the exceptional care you gave to our furry human. We look forward to coming back soon from Nashville, when we are visiting my cousin. If you are looking for dog care done in a professional manner, then look no further and Book, Katelyn and Andy! You won’t regret it!”
About: We have had dogs for over 50 years, all sizes, many breeds. We know your dog may need a different level of attention than others, we will make it feel at home by treating it just like you tells us to. We won’t just throw it out back with some food and water, it will get personal treatment just like our Piper does. She doesn’t work and only leaves home for a few hours to go to the store or doctor. Your dog will have supervision most of the time. Bring its favorite toy or bed, it can play fetch, ball, tug of war with Piper. The fenced yard has access via a doggy door or a human door. Piper sleeps in a crate in her own bedroom but your dog can sleep the same way it does at home, just tell us what it prefers. Bring its food and water Bowls. We will consider dogs from 40-100 lbs in case by case review. We DO NOT accept Pit Bull dogs. We request a meet and great visit prior to scheduled stay to make sure your dog is a good fit in our home.
“We highly recommend, Kayla! We recently adopted our pup from a shelter and wanted to make sure he was in someone’s home while traveling to avoid any more trauma and she did a great job making sure he was comfortable. The second time we dropped him off he went right in! Our boy loved Kayla and we will definitely use her again. She is excellent with communication and you can tell she truly loves dogs. Thank you for providing a great environment for Arrow!”

“My partner and I are homebodies and rarely separated from our two wonderful aging Labradors but had a short notice occasion that couldn't include our dogs. Since our dogs are usually with us 24/7, we do not have an emergency backup. Our vet suggested Rover.com and Cindy came to our rescue. We had a "meet and greet" the same day as my initial contact and Cindy was agreeable to a day care service on a day she usually isn't available. She was personable, demonstrated a kind interest in our pups, and they were safe and happy when we returned. I was very pleased to learn of this service and would not hesitate to use Cindy again! What a relief!”

“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away.

You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”

About: I have always loved animals ever since I was small. My experience really started when I was able to live on my own and adopt my first pet, a female cat named Kitty, in 2001. I have flexible hours and am willing to help pretty much any time. I currently work part time for myself as an Ebay seller and I sell mostly 3D printed items. I have 3 teenage sons and a tween daughter who are also animal lovers. I have a fenced backyard if needed and I can also help at the client's home.

“Extremely reliable, communicative, and the dogs absolutely love him—we couldn’t ask for a better daily visit than our walks with CJ! He provides so much peace of mind, knowing my dogs are being well cared for when I can’t be there. The adorable photo updates are always a joy, and it’s clear that he puts a lot of effort into building relationships with his clients—human and furry friends alike.”
About: My love for animals started when I was very young. I always knew that I wanted to work very closely with animals. I have had pets for as far back as I can remember. Everything from a Great Dane to pet mice,as well as friends that didn't have fur 🤣 I currently have 2 indoor cats, 3 Great Pyrenees, and a few others that aren't approved for rover 😜 I also run a family farm business. We have most of the things that you would expect large and small . I can confidently say that I am living my childhood dream! I love each animals unique personality and strive to make them all feel comfortable and cared for. I administer the medication when needed to pets and livestock at home and on the farm. If there is something I am not familiar with, I am always eager to learn. I am currently working from home. I run a family farm business. Therefore I am very flexible in my ability to schedule drop-ins and work with my clients needs. I can follow any care schedule, including but not limited to: feeding, walking, playing, crating, and cleaning up after your pets. Any special needs can also be discussed.
About: I would love to foster a senior dog soon, but since traveling the last year; the next best thing is helping you with your special babes! I have a flexible schedule so I’m available to work with yours. Weekdays or weekends are both options. Last minute help is available also. Helping with pets in their home is ideal since they are comfortable in their environment. Experience with dogs, cats and fish. I’m organized and like to work from a daily schedule.
About: I've had a full house of "fur kids" for over 15 years. With the same cat that started my pack, Eko Donald, Annie Rose, whom I've had for 5+ years, with two of her babies, Garfied & Binx, the past 3 years. In additional to my feline pack, current Pooches include, Herbie Don, Athena Marie, Piddle & Frank Barone. Yes! I currently have 4 dogs and 4 cats! Herbie, my "vicious" Pitbull Terrier, came as an abandoned 1 year old, now 7, through the "Lorain County Dog Kennel". Athena, my Senior Farm girl, came 2 summers ago, knocking at deaths door, from a divorce case gone bad for the "fur kids" in a state, KY, that does not protect their furies. So bringing her to the great state of Ohio, protected under Goddards Law, was a no brainer. Piddle, my 4 yr old Shorkie, whose legal name is Thor, was a token of appreciation from one of my School Bus. kiddos. Frank Barone, a 2 yr old Spaniel mix of some sort, the "baby" of the pack, came through the APL, from a hoarding case gone terrible. My "fur kids" are truly the "kids", I was not able to have beyond the only 1 I was blessed with who is now an adult. As a Substitute Teacher, my schedule is very flexible and open to just about anything; especially, during those high in demand, and popular vacation times! Yup! Im an introverted, homebody, who doesn't go too far, often enough. I'm open to individual requests per family, as I've learned, just as humans, fur kids are no exception, in the fact that no two pets, or pet families are the same.
About: I grew up on a small farm in upstate New York and have spent years caring for animals of my own! I have been trusted by friends and family to watch their dogs and cats and I understand that pet care is a 24/7 job. I am a stay at home mom which gives me plenty of time to take care of your pets day and night! I am available every day of the week. I own my home and have a guest room dedicated to providing the best care for both human and animal guests alike! This way your pet has a safe space to retreat to when feeling nervous or need to rest, otherwise my whole house is safe and ready for animals of all kinds.
About: Dog sitting and dog walking has always been something that I have loved. Taking care of our four legged fur babies is the best feeling. I have animals of my own so taking care of different animals daily is something that will easily fit into my daily and weekly routines. I have two cats and one dog. I take my dog for a walk about three times a week and I always spend time with my cats and dog.
About: A little about me! I have been dog sitting for over four years and truly enjoy caring for animals. My professional background includes working with children through the Boys & Girls Club of America in both after-school and summer programs, as well as working in senior assisted living communities, where I currently work full-time. I also earned my esthetician license, but I continue working in assisted living because I love building relationships and caring for others. Outside of my full-time career, pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve always been an animal lover and have a soft spot for both dogs and cats, which I could never choose a favorite! I currently provide pet care for friends, family, coworkers, and referrals through mutual connections. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets when you’re away. My goal is to make both you and your pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. You can also expect plenty of photos, videos, and updates while you’re away. I believe staying connected with your pet brings peace of mind and helps you enjoy your time away worry free!! I currently work everyday until 2 pm except Wednesdays and Fridays I am off and work every other weekend. However I still am available everyday for house sitting. I never leave the animals longer than 8 hours! I strive to maintain your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible. Feeding times are scheduled according to your preferences, though there may occasionally be slight adjustments based on my work schedule. I make it a priority to keep pets active, engaged, and happy through playtime, walks, and other activities. My goal is to provide a comfortable, familiar environment that helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hey there! My name is Dorottya. I've taken care of different kinds of pets since I was a kid and I always seem to be a pet magnet when I visit my friends, they just can't get enough of my cuddles. I've also been known to talk and sing to animals, it makes them happy and sooths them. I believe that creating a comfortable and caring environment while pet owners are away will help bridge the gap between the times they will be together again. No one wants a sad puppy or kitty while pet parents are away. My main options on here are for house sitting and dog walking. I have worked as a nurse for 10 years, so I have a medical background. I work full-time on my own business and typically leave a couple days open to my rover clients. I'm currently working on my own business, and I'm available to pet sit and dog walk a couple days a week from 9 am to overnight when needed. I respect the homes of my clients when pet sitting, or dog walking. I love to tailor the day to fit the individual pet's needs and their schedules for feedings, medications (if pet is taking them), potty, and activities (play time or walking).

“Bridget was so easy to coordinate with and did a fantastic job taking care of Watson for a 3 night visit. Really great communication before and during the stay. Her dogs were super friendly and welcoming of Watson in their space right from the start which gave me good peace of mind while he was there. He literally didn’t want to leave when I picked him up so I think that says it all :) Thanks Bridget!”
“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”
“This was Slink’s first time away from us. I appreciated the texts and pictures. I believe he enjoyed his time with Emily and her family. Thank you for taking care of Slink!”
“Kayla was a great sitter for our pup. We needed help last minute, we did a meet and greet and then our dog stayed for a long weekend. She came home exhausted from all the fun and play. She was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Kayla for your sitting needs.”
“Kelsey took great care of my 2 dogs this week! (1 pitbull &1 frenchie) it was 5 nights , they played with them and kept them fed and happy the whole time and updated me randomly and also responded quickly if I had any questions about my babies!! She does have children which has previously been an anxiety point for my pit bull.. the kids were so friendly and patient and he played well with them all weekend! Overall really happy with the turnout and that he was able to play with children in a controlled environment! Will definitely use her if we go out of town again!🩷”
“Tiffany was very caring and loving to my "old lady" Izzy. She sent me pictures, videos and updates regularly. I have peace of mind travelling knowing that my sweet Izzy is in good hands with someone who loves her like I do!”
“Scout had the best time for his overnight stay. He was loved and cared for like he was part of their family. We got pictures of his adventures throughout his stay. Whenever we are back in town and need a sitter we will reaching back out. ❤️”
“I had the pleasure of working with Sharon, and I couldn't be more impressed with her kindness, efficiency, and genuine love for animals. She took excellent care of my dog for the day, ensuring he was happy, comfortable, and well-attended to. What truly stood out to me was her attentiveness and calm demeanor, which made the entire experience stress-free. She is clearly experienced, as evidenced by how well she handles her own dogs—a Yorkie and a Shepherd—both of whom are incredibly well-behaved and sweet. If you're looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter, Sharon is absolutely the person to trust. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of quality care for their furry friends!”
“Madison is awesome. She made my baby (Sookie) feel comfortable. It has been 4 years since we took a vacation because of a bad experience with the sitter but Madison made us feel relieved and we were able to enjoy our vacation because we felt like Sookie was in good hands and safe. I highly recommend her and I trust her with our baby girl. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Michael has been so wonderful with our Tiny Tim. Tiny loves going over to Michael’s house when we have something going on for the day. We will always use Michael as long as he still in the business.”
“Jennifer was fantastic. She spent a great amount of time getting the dogs warmed up to each other. Fritz had a great overnight stay and she kept me updated the whole stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. My life has been enriched by caring for kittens, puppies, adults, and seniors. I’ve given pills and eye drops to both cats and dogs. I love playing with cats and dogs and seeing them happy! It would be an honor to care for your pet. I’m the owner/operator of a new pet transportation business and have taken care of puppies during 200+ mile trips. This includes giving them water and food, cleaning them and their crate up (if they got carsick ☹️), sitting with them on breaks while they roamed the back of my SUV, and snuggles. I am excited to take care of fur babies at your home or mine! I have two cats of my own, a calico (7 yrs old) and a Siamese mix (6 yrs old), and they are amazing! 😻 I have a fenced in backyard and swimming pool (which can also be fenced off if desired by pet parent). I can feed, water, do short walks, and give medicine or eye drops (to compliant pets). I have 2 cats and am happy to provide care to cat friendly dogs at my home or I can come to yours. I’m available M-F 8-4 and for overnight stays.
“I felt totally at ease leaving our standard poodle with Andreja for a 4 day weekend. She sent photos of Ruby my dog, and I appreciated it and it gave me ease in leaving her. Totally trust her and would leave Ruby with her again. Vicki Hudak”
“Ralph was amazing, he accommodated our girls and treated them as if they were his own. He ensured that they were the only clients he had during their stay to make sure they were comfortable. He sent so many photos and made sure that we knew that were well cared for during their first stay with him. There was no doubt. Our large breed is shy and after our first meet and greet, she warmed up to Ralph so easily and she does that with no one. He has a way with animals that makes them feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Ralph but I would like to be able to book him in the future 😉”
About: I have fostered many animals over the years. Very obedient dogs to deaf and blind dogs. I have also taken care of a variety of other animals such as ferrets, rabbits, and turtles. Hello, I am currently available at any time as I am taking a leave from my full time job for some very personal reasons. I will base things around your animals schedule. I follow strict instructions for your pets care plus more. Potty breaks are as frequent as need be especially with the age of the dog.
About: I offer in house boarding So your pet doesn’t have to sleep on a hard floor and be in a kennel. Your pet will be treated as though they are one of my own. If they sleep with you they sleep with me! They are my first priority! Come on out and do a meet and greet! Pet boarding is my biggest priority. Your pet will have all the attention, fun time and proper care they need during their visit no matter how long their visit is. I care for the pets I sit as though their own owner is caring for them. If they have food and water in front of them, 24/7 that will be something that they will have at my facility if they don’t and they have a different regiment that is something they will have in my facility if they have toys, beds, medication at their home that is what i will provide for them as well. If they are, or aren’t allowed on the furniture that is what i will do If they sleep in your bed with you at night they will sleep with me at night. If they go on multiple daily walks, that is what i will do. Your pet will be cared for just the way you care for them.
“Joylyn was amazing with Rue. She sent us updates with pictures several times and really cared about her. We will definitely use her again. You can tell she cares about animals.”
