“Liz's care was everything a special needs dog required. Stella is not only a nervous nelly but her underlying medical condition requires she stay away from other dogs and gets her medication as prescribed. Liz was calming and caring for our Stella and for me who worried about leaving Stella with a new person. Liz followed the long list of instructions accurately and was right on time for Stella's meet and greet and for the start of the week's care. It was especially amazing that Liz was available over Christmas and cheerful about "working" during the holiday. She even was willing to stay longer for Stella's care when our return flight got canceled, and I was pleased she upheld her commitment to her next booking even though she was very sorry she couldn't extend for us. Our home was in excellent condition when we returned. Stella was happy and well cared for under Liz's care. Liz communicated and sent pictures daily. Stella and I will be looking Liz's way for Stella's care when I am out of town again.”
“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.”
“Alisha was so flexible accommodating our changing schedule-she took great care of our two boys, one a very senior pup who is pretty high maintenance. We really appreciated the peace of mind knowing she was here with them-thanks Alisha!”
“kirk took care of my dog and home while i was away for a week. he was kind and professional. he sent me updates and pics of my pup every day and was very responsive to my additional texts. when i came home, my dog was happy and my place was spotless! 10/10 would use kirk again and recommend him to friends!”
“Sam is an amazing sitter! She handled our senior dog’s quirks with ease. We came home to a happy, healthy dog. Our home was clean and tidy. We will be booking Sam again soon!”
“Allison was AMAZING with my parent’s highly anxious dog. She was willing to help on short notice, and was flexible with us as things changed during the stay! She sent daily photos and videos to us, and checked in with updates on how things were going. Harper loved her, and we’ll absolutely be using Allison again in the future!”
About: I grew up around dogs and never miss the chance to offer a walk. I learn and adapte fast to your dog’s needs and personality. I love being active and outside. I’m saving up for a PT certification, so be one pet at a time! I’m currently waiting for w-2 job to start so have a lot of free time in my hands. I know leaving a pet with someone new can be stressful. My goal is to give you some peace of mind and keep you informed on everything we do and how it’s going. Typically fresh bowl of water, litter box is clean at least three times a day (if not more). Grooming every week and brushing their teeth two times a week, playtime outside at least twice a day.
“Repeat house-sitting customer here! Brody is communicative, dependable, and affectionate with our dogs! We have two high-energy husky mixes and he’s great with them. We will book with Brody again!”
“Madelyn was great and left the house very clean and organized while we were away! She took my dog out and bathed him without being asked and sent regular updates. I would recommend her!”
“My dog skye warmed right up with Theresa from the first time they met. She watched her for the weekend and when i got back skye was happy as ever. There were no issues or worries since its obvious that Theresa loves animals and will care for them like her own.”
“Karen was wonderful to work with. She took great care of our dogs, and went above and beyond also caring for our bearded dragon. She sent lots of updates and pictures so we knew how things were going. We will certainly use her again.”
“Addison took really great care of our pets and our home. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates, and I could tell our dogs needs were well-met. I would definitely recommend her for your pet or house sitting needs.”
“We recently had the pleasure of booking Grady through Rover while we were away for 10 days, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Grady provided exceptional care and attention to our pups. He kept us updated with consistent communication and regular photos, which gave us such peace of mind while we were on vacation. Not only did he treat our dogs like his own, but he was also incredibly respectful of our home. Everything was just as we left it (if not cleaner) and our dogs were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when we returned. Grady truly went above and beyond, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, attentive dog / house sitter. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to him again in the future!”
“Anna is well reviewed for good reason. She is a fantastic communicator, incredibly attentive, left our house in the same (or better) condition then when she got to it, and really loves taking care of animals. 100% recommend.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in American Fork is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - American Fork
This was our first time using Rover, and we decided to take a chance because in the past we’ve always relied on family to watch our dogs while we were on vacation. We have one pup with high anxiety who doesn’t do well in kennels, and neither of our dogs are great with other dogs, so we were definitely nervous. Sarah completely put our minds at ease. She cared for them and treated them like they were her own. We received updates, knew they were in great hands, and could actually enjoy our vacation without worrying. I honestly think they may have enjoyed their time with Sarah more than they do with us! We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience and would absolutely book with her again.
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! 😊
Kristin was so easy and kind to work with. She came and picked up my dogs and dropped them off at the end of the weekend which was a huge plusJune and August received lots of attention with Kristin and her family. I enjoyed getting picture updates while I was away and knew they were being well cared for. My dogs were really well cared for and I really appreciated that she asked what I wanted and needed for the dogs and was very attentive to their feeding and playing needs. Will definitely be rebooking regularly!
Callie was amazing! We did a virtual meeting prior to booking and Callie was super open and friendly. On the first day she’s arrived on time and went over everything with us very kindly and asked all the questions. She stayed with Tomas for 4 days and she constantly sent us pictures, she pampered him so much, he was very happy and comfortable with her. I would just describe this experience with Callie as the best ever! She took great care of Tomas but also of our home. Definitely recommend and would book again
Jada kept our dog safe, fed, and loved while we were away, and that’s a win for pet parents! Communication was a little low at first, but she was very quick to respond once I reached out. She shared some photos of our dog over our trip which we loved!! We did come home after a 6 day trip to our dogs water bowl empty which was a little concerning, but in all honesty is something that I feel can easily and unfortunately get overlooked while heading out after a long sit. All around Jada did a great job in-house sitting our dog, and I would recommend her to a friend looking for pet sitting!

FAQs for House Sitting - American Fork
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in American Fork on Rover is $52.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,659 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across American Fork. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
