“Evette was a great host she made sure my dog got plenty of attention and activity. She was quick to respond and easy to work with. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Lauren is an absolutely amazing host. Would recommend anyone to let her take care their dog. The dogs get plenty of time to exercise and have fun outside and a warm place to sleep at night. Her own dogs are very friendly too and excellent companions.”
“This was the first time our two fur babies stayed with Charity and Erik. They took fantastic care of them. They sent us photos and videos of our doggies every day. Charity and Erik went above and beyond, making sure our dogs were happy and comfortable. They took them on their daily walks, even when it was snowing. I can't say enough great things about Charity and Erik. We definitely plan to have our doggies stay with them the next time we travel. It's so comforting to know we have a safe, fun place for our doggies to stay when we are away.”
“Bentley had a great time with Curtis and Jennifer! I received lots of pictures, videos and updates while he stayed with them which made me feel at ease. Thanks for taking great care of my pup!”
“Jennifer was great with Moses. I received photos of him on hikes everyday - he was loving it! I knew he was safe & happy our whole trip - didn’t worry about him once in Jennifer’s good hands.”
“Nancy was a perfect match for my pups. Very easy to work with, super responsive, sent photos, took them on walks, plenty of playing time with her pup, Marley! She was great about making sure there was equal play time to rest time. Also wonderful about giving essential medication daily. She even let my one very cuddly dog talk her into sleeping with her on her bed. ? Dogs came home happy and cared for as if we never left. Absolutely would feel good about booking with her again.”
“Nancy and her family were wonderful with our 2 Beagles. It was such a relief knowing they were safe and cared for while we were gone. We will definitely be using them again as dog sitters. We were gone on vacation for 5 days and the dogs were spoiled and well taken care of. Thank you! From Marley & Zoey 🐾🐾 and us!”
“Michelle and family were the perfect weekend hosts for our special dude! We truly appreciated knowing that he was being well cared for — complete with walks and a yard to relax in and a kid to entertain. I could tell he had a great time, and we especially loved that Michele would send us photos and updates. We rested easy knowing he was in good hands.”
“Julie and her family are the very best, and our pup has had nothing but top notch stays with them. Great communication, flexibility, and most of all they really care about our dog. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.”
“Randi was wonderful! She has great communication and shared photos of our pup every day. It’s clear our dog felt very comfortable with her. We would definitely love to have Randi watch our dog again.”
“Elizabeth was great! She took good care of our older dog, gave him medicines, was very helpful and easy to work with. She kept us updated with messages and pictures while he was at her house. We will use her again.”
“I was very nervous about leaving our Senior dog who needs extra care. Jim and Mary Jane exceeded my expectations. They made Cody feel very comfortable and were great with communicating with us throughout the trip. Very appreciative of their love and care to Cody and responsiveness to us.”
“We wouldn’t trust anyone else to watch our dog Charlie expect for Leah and Jim! They are amazing and always send us updates and we know she is in good hands with them and their dog Dewey.”
“Chelsea was great! Our pooch had great time and Chelsea updated us quickly every time we inquired how she was doing. We would absolutely book with her again next time we are in the area!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have always had a natural love for caring for them. I have previous experience pet sitting and caring for animals, and I’m comfortable adapting to different pets, personalities, routines, and energy levels! I have an eight-year-old Miniature Schnauzer named Axl, who is my whole world, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. I’m patient, attentive, and very observant when it comes to noticing what a pet needs, whether they want to play, go for a walk, relax, or just have some company. I also can adjust to whatever makes you feel most comfortable! I have a very flexible schedule, and reliable transportation which allows me to give pets plenty of attention rather than simply stopping by and rushing off. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away:) Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine because I have a very flexible schedule! I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, drop-in visits, dog park stops, and pet sitting throughout the week, and I can work around each pet’s individual routine. I’m happy to keep up with their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and rest schedules so they feel as comfortable and settled as possible while their owners are away. I also enjoy spending extra time with pets rather than treating visits like a quick tasks, it’s my favorite part of my day!😁 I have a fully fenced backyard and my dog, Axl, who is very social, calm, and gets along well with other dogs! He regularly goes on walks and to the dog park, so he’s used to having other pets around. My home has plenty of supervision, and pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to accommodate both kennel and no-kennel routines and will always follow your pet’s usual schedule and needs.
“Andrea is sweet and very responsible. She went above and beyond to make sure that our drop-off an pick-ups went smoothly when I boarded my dog at her place. My dog was immediately comfortable in her home. Couldn't ask for a better experience.”
“Nicole and Joseph were so great with our pup! They sent videos of our dogs playing together and kept us updated on how she was doing. They were kind and communicative. We will definitely be leaving our dog with them again!”

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.
95% of sitters in Alta 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 Alta 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 Alta.
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 Alta. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
You and your Alta 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 UT 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.
