About: Hi, I’m Dylan! I grew up in a multi-dog household, so managing feeding, walking, and bathroom schedules has been a natural part of my life. Today, I love bringing that same dedicated, attentive care to adult dogs and cats who thrive in a peaceful, quiet routine. Standard Care vs. Constant Care: To maintain a calm, structured environment, I specialize exclusively in adult and senior pets (ages 1 and up). I offer two tiers of house sitting: Standard Care (Base Rate): Ideal for independent adult pets. I am with your pet for all meals, walks, and overnights, but may leave for up to 4 hours during the day for errands or local walks. Constant Care (Premium Upgrade): Ideal for senior pets, medical-needs animals, or adult rescues with severe separation anxiety. I manage my day entirely from your home, ensuring your pet is never left unattended for more than 1–2 hours. (Please message me for custom Constant Care rates). Travel & Service Logistics: My standard rates cover homes within a 15-mile radius of Sandy (84092). For locations requiring extended transit across the valley, I apply the following nightly adjustments directly to your booking: Lehi Area: +$15/night travel adjustment Park City / Mountain Commutes: +$25/night premium (covers canyon transit and fuel) I look forward to connecting and scheduling a Meet & Greet to ensure we are a seamless match for your home and your furry family members! I currently work full-time as an adult and senior pet care provider which gives me ultimate flexibility to watch after your pets and make sure their needs are met. I provide comprehensive care for your pet such as keeping it company, making sure there’s enough bathroom breaks, and adequately feeding at specific times throughout the day.
About: Hi!!!! I have a big heart for dogs. Sadly my golden doodle passed away last year and I’m aching for some time with a pup! I have experience casually house sitting and dog walking. Please reach out and I’m happy to see how I can help! I am currently working part time and would love some dog walking and house sitting opportunities! I’m flexible and around all day on the days I don’t work. I will not be able to house dogs or animals in my home. However, I am happy to come to your home for a walk or overnight stay if needed.
About: I have a lot of hands on experience with cats from volunteering and the humane society. I’ve learned how to read their body language, love figuring out what kind of toys they like to play with, giving them love and attention, and I’m not afraid of the litter box. I currently work full time, but I work remote and have a flexible schedule. I would be able to come over for however long is needed to spend time with your fur baby. I have 2 cats at home and I rent, so I cannot board at my house. However, I will use whatever you have available and whatever your pet likes at your house to help take care of your fur baby! I pay great attention to detail and make sure I get the job done in a way you and your pet will love.
About: With over 35 years of experience as a dedicated dog owner, I provide trusted and compassionate care for your pets. I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds from small Shih Tzu’s to energetic Australian shepherds and many in between. I understand that each dog has unique needs. In my home, pets are treated like family and given plenty of love and attention. They’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime, along with daily walks, or games of fetch tailored to their energy level and preferences. There are no children or other pets in the home, allowing for a calm, focused environment, where your dog can feel comfortable, secure, and get the attention they need. I am an elementary school teacher. I am available all summer and holidays. My holiday breaks are longer than usual due to my teaching schedule. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I recently lost my 18 year-old Shih Tzu. So there are no other dogs in the home. Your dog will receive my undivided attention. I will walk your dog daily and play fetch in the backyard. Pets in my home are treated to lots of affection. I also have no children living at home so they get a lot of attention. Snuggles on the couch are welcome!
About: I have taken care of plenty of animals from a very young age. I’ve trained before and enjoyed seeing the progress that comes with. I am great with any age of dog and understand the difference in temperament! I am currently working a job as a barista and am a student at SLCC. My job is fairly flexible and doesn’t demand my full days. I do schooling online so it is easy for me to do homework anywhere. I am happy to take your dog on walks, play with them in the backyard, do trainings etc. Whatever your pet may need! I am familiar with crate training and am comfortable with it. I like to watch dogs in your home, because it gives them a sense of safety and comfort.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was born. My mom was a dog breeder so I would help her with the puppies and I just love working with animals they have such sweet kindred spirits. I have currently moved back home to finish school but need a job part time or full time because I do school online. And I can work nights or early mornings I’m my home our pets have been trained to ask to go outside. I would prefer to work at someone’s home just because our house is new and still is missing some fencing
“Chris took excellent care of our cats while we were away. His daily updates made us smile and laugh and he took great pictures to let us know our boys were doing well. He was obviously very engaged during his check ins because it took him about a visit and half to have our cat’s personalities figured out. His communication and professionalism were top notch! We’d absolutely book him again.”
About: My son and I live on a quiet dead end street in Holladay. We cared for 2 of our own dogs for 11 years. For the last 3 years we cared for a small dog with a heart condition who recently passed away at 17 years old. I am retired, so lots of time to care for dogs. My son’s schedule is flexible and will be able to assist when I need to be away from home. We have a fenced yard for your dog to play in and explore. There is also a doggy door. Your dog will have access to the whole house.
About: You want a sitter who follows your rules, doesn't get overwhelmed, and genuinely enjoys the quirks of your pets. That’s my sweet spot. With 20 years of experience, I’ve seen it all—from high-energy dogs who need a solid hike to burn off the zoomies, to sweet seniors who just need a gentle pace and their meds on time. I’m big on routine, clear communication, and respecting your space. Your pets get a reliable companion; you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being active. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets attention, consistency, companionship, exercise, and personalized care throughout the day. I enjoy creating, fun, positive experiences for pets whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, check-ins, enrichment activities, or simply helping them stick to their normal routine while their owners are away or busy. I also love to go on hikes close by and running those really active pups. I treat every pet like an individual and make time to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. A typical day with me is calm, flexible, and tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level. Some pets want adventure, enrichment, and outdoor time, while others are happiest with companionship, routine, cuddles, and a relaxed environment. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping owners updated with communication and photos. Depending on your pet’s needs, visits can include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, medication support, potty breaks, relaxing companionship, or outings for extra stimulation and exercise. I’m especially patient with shy pets, seniors, and animals who need extra reassurance or consistency. I believe pets do best when they feel understood instead of rushed or stressed. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for owners, and care that feels personal instead of one-size-fits-all.
“Daniela was great with Max and was able to check on him with a short notice request. Very much appreciated! She sent pics and gave a follow up, and I was so glad she was able to check in on him!”
“Steven was great!!! He is great at communicating and responds super fast. He was amazing with our dog, and gave great photos and updates in our rover card. Can’t wait to book with him again! Thank you so much for watching our dog!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Not a day has gone by that I've never been around a pet. I even take care of my friend's pets at college when I can! Pet care fits perfectly into my summer routine! I’m free to spend time with your pets, whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just giving them some love and attention. It’s the ideal way for me to enjoy my summer while taking care of your furry friends! I prioritize safety and trust by ensuring a calm, pet-friendly environment. Whether in your home or mine, I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they feel loved and safe while you’re away.
“Brielle was a great sitter for my cats! She played with them and sent pictures every day. She communicated with me when needed. I would use her for cat sitting again and I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been involved with various animal rescue organizations for more than 30 years and have extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and medical conditions. I’ve fostered many animals over the years and have helped with adoptions, medical visits, home visits, shelter assessments, and fundraising and community events. I’ve also personally rescued and cared for animals with health issues and have extensive experience with dogs who may need extra patience, understanding, or specialized care. I’m very active and love having dogs join me in the fun. I hike, bike, ski, and paddleboard, and I’m always happy to have a furry companion along for an adventure. Of course, I’m equally happy spending a quiet day at home with a dog curled up on the couch getting plenty of love and extra snuggles. My two senior dogs recently passed away, and I truly miss having dogs in my home. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I would love the opportunity to give your dog the same attention, affection, and care I’ve given my own. I have a very flexible schedule that will allow me to accommodate your pet's needs. I like to adhere to a schedule your pet is accustomed to. My pets were all indoor dogs, well taken care of, and slightly spoiled. They had regular feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. I will adhere to your pet's regular schedule as much as possible.
About: I’ve cared for many different dogs and pets of my own and for others for a day or up to a month. I have an amazing Alaskan Husky named Bingo. As the owner of a high energy dog I spend a lot of time doing outdoor activities. This is made easy by my work from home schedule I beleive in positive reinforcement training and will work with the pet owner to create a custom pet care plan for their fur baby. I have a crate for transportation as well as an assortment of leashes and harnesses
About: I will hike, mountain bike, trail run, paddle board or just walk with your dog to let them let loose of all their energy. Whatever your dog needs, I got it! My schedule is completely free! Currently in Physical Therapy school, but I have online classes the rest of summer! Whenever you need dog care, it works for me! I treat your pets/home as my own. I leave places better than what I found them. I currently cannot take your pets in my home due to living in an apartment.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was around 15 years old. I personally do not have one but I love spending time with my family and friends dogs. They give me so much joy and happiness. I have experience watching dogs at my house or my family/ friends house. Love to go on walk and adventures but also staying in and having a movie night cuddled up with the pup on the couch. I am currently working a part time job, so I have a lot of free time to have a play date with your pup :) I have a biiig fenced in back yard. Great for playing fetch, running around or just simply hanging out and enjoying the weather ! I do not have a personal dog so there is no worry. I make sure the dog always has their water bowl filled and like to take the dog either outside or for a walk every few hours

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters 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 sitter.
