“Morgan was fantastic!! She watched our kitty for a week while we were out of town and she provided daily updates and took great care of the house as well. I definitely recommend and would use her again!”
“Allison was amazing! She was dependable, responsible, and took great care of my dog, Jojo, while I was away. She kept in constant communication and followed my instructions perfectly. I really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent of Jojo. She took Jojo on three walks a day, which was more than I expected. Since my dog loves walks, she was in heaven while Allison was caring for her. Allison also took excellent care of my house and left everything clean and organized. She even washed the sheets before leaving. I will definitely book her again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - American Fork
Regular sitter was out of town and hired Sarah based on her reviews and she did not disappoint. We have two cats and one dog. Raven was always happy in the pics she sent. The real test were the kitties and the first night they both were out and could clearly see they were not scared, which says it all. Cleo is about 6 months old and gets scared easily, for her to be out and about put our minds at ease. They were their playful selves in the pics. Pippy was on her lap and he is finicky with people. House stayed nice and clean. Will use Sarah again, without a doubt.
Sam was so good to our pups while we were away! She always does such a great job taking care of them, and we love all the pictures and updates she sends. It gives us peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. We’d absolutely recommend Sam and will definitely use her again!
I’m so grateful for Jada! She was a last-minute resource for my pets and my first choice on Rover, and I couldn’t have been happier with our experience. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner! I was so surprised by how quickly she responded after I reached out through the website. She was excited to meet Finn and Copper, and from the very beginning, her interaction with them showed so much kindness, care, support, and genuine love for my furry babies. ❤️🐾 Jada followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated every day with messages and pictures of our pets. She is a wonderful communicator, a great listener, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Finn and Copper were happy and well cared for. Thank you so much, Jada, for taking such wonderful care of Finn and Copper! We appreciate you more than you know! 🐾❤️
Kessa was amazing! She came and helped out last minute for us and was such a great sitter. Communicated with us, left our house in great condition, and helped my animals with all their needs! We will totally use her again! Book her if you get the chance, she’s great!
Sky was the best caregiver for our pups that we could have asked for! We have literally never left our dogs with anyone other than family & we usually travel with them, but we couldn't bring them a long for where we were going & I was seriously so nervous leaving them with someone. Sky made us immediately feel at ease. The home visit went so well. You could tell she was capable & had such bright vibes. She checked in with us & gave the up most care to our dogs. I had left in a hurry bc we were in charge of a youth camp, so my counters were messy & I felt embarrassed for leaving a mess, but when I got home I noticed she had wiped down the counters & did a few of the dishes that I hadn't washed. I didn't expect her to do anything extra, but I thought that was so kind & thoughtful of her. I definitely would trust Sky with my dogs anytime. Thank you Sky!!
Sarah was amazing with my dogs! She was so communicative the whole time I was away, she sent lots of cute photos of mg boys and she took amazing care of the house as well. Coming back from a long travel day to two happy healthy pups and a clean home was so lovely. I’d for sure book her again.
He was absolutely amazing! We felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs and chickens in his care, and he went above and beyond to make sure everyone was well taken care of. He was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for home. We would absolutely trust him to watch our animals again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
Whitney is fantastic!!! This is her second time staying with our 3 dogs and we had no worries at any point during our trip. We knew our girls would be well taken care of and happy upon our return. We have dogs with different needs and Whitney is able to take care of them each in their own way; she sends pictures and updates, so we know everyone is happy!! It is especially nice to have found a trustworthy, reliable and kind sitter!! We all love Whitney!!
Rebecca was very easy to work and communicate with! We scheduled a couple visits before the house sitting to have her meet our dog Archie, and he instantly loved her which relieved a ton of stress! She stayed at our house with him and gave multiple photo updates of him. She kept the house clean/the same as how we left it and even ran the laundry, had the dishes in the dishwasher, and took out the trash before we got back! :) We loved working with Rebecca and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in American Fork is $51 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $76 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred American Fork walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in American Fork maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in American Fork choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in American Fork. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
