“I’m always anxious leaving my dog with anyone when I have to go out of town. Morgan was amazing with Ziggy & communicated throughout the day & sent pictures putting my mind at ease. I will be using her again.”
“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!”
“Viridian is amazing!! She was very communicative, left our house clean, and took great care of our Great Dane. Would highly recommend and will be asking her again in the future!”

“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!!”
“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!”
About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life. I enjoy being around animals . When I go to other people’s homes, I rather talk to the animals. ha ha I work full-time Monday - Thursday 6 AM to 4:30 PM in the American Fork area. I’m available outside those times to pop in, go for a walk, feed, and visit with your pet etc. I rent and have three cats at home, so I prefer to only care for animals in the clients home. At home we have a toy attached to a fishing pole and we use that and call cat fishing. Our cats love it!
“Meghan was fantastic watching my two huskies at my house for several nights. The girlies loved her! She provided regular updates and pictures and gave them so much love and attention. I will definitely be booking with Meghan again!”
“Sienna was amazing! She came over to meet us beforehand and met all of our expectations while we were gone. She was great at communicating and very detail oriented. She noticed our small dog wasn’t eating all of her meals and checked in with us to make sure we weren’t concerned. Our house was exactly as we left it when we got home, very clean, and our dogs were in great spirits. I feel confident they were well cared for and I highly recommend sienna!”
About: I have helped to raise and take care of my dog for over seven years and I’ve helped to look after a couple missing pets until we could find their owners and bring them back to their homes. I’m a student-athlete in college so I have practice and school in the mornings and afternoons on Monday-Thursday so those days I typically won’t be available until 5:00 pm. I also have practices on Saturday mornings and wouldn’t be available until around 12:00 pm. Fridays and Sundays are usually completely free. I have an unfenced yard but I can easily take your dog out on a leash to use the bathroom. I have a very nice and well behaved mini golden doodle that would love a friend to play with. I’ll make sure your dog gets the food, water, care, and attention that they need to be happy and healthy.
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kimberly. We booked the week prior for an overnight so we could take a quick trip to CO for a concert. Kimberly was friendly & communicative the week leading up to the booking and checked in the evening before. She arrived at 6:30 am with such a warm energy and immediately won the pups over. Grimm seemed instantly attached to her! It was very sweet. I was a bit worried since it was our first time using Rover, & the first time leaving the boys with someone other than their grandparents. We felt comfortable with Kimberly right off the bat and we knew our boys were in good hands. I loved that she sent lots of photos & videos while we were away & let us know how well they were doing. She followed all care instructions perfectly. She even left us beautiful flowers she cut from her garden. I would 100% trust Kimberly to care for my furbabies again in the future. I feel blessed to have found and connected with such a good human. Thank you Kimberly! 💛🐾”

“Caitlin took better care of Frankie and the house than I do! Can't wait to ask Caitlin to come help out again. First time I have ever had someone come stay in the house while I am gone. I was nervous and Caitlin was just wonderful.”
“The very best!! We’ve had great success with Rover sitters and Jacob is right up there at the top! Took excellent care of our dog and our house! Cleaned the kitchen, changed out the sheets, caring and humorous daily reports about Louie’s day. Pleasant and respectful. We found Jacob to be fully trustworthy. We highly recommend him!”

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!

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! 😊

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in American Fork is $53 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $75 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.
As of October 2026, there are 2,642 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
