I would have her house sit again .”
“Body is an exceptional dog sitter and human. He cared for my 3 dogs, one special needs and one a puppy, giving me updates and taking good care of them. I was visiting Utah and he drove a good ways to meet my dogs and care for them. Highly recommend Brody. When we are back, we will get on the schedule for dog watching. This was the first time my puppy was away from me and watched by someone else. He immediately liked Brody and was well behaved with him. Thank you Brody - the pups and me.”
“This is the very first time I have ever used Rover and I needed it very fast with very little warning. Marco was absolutely amazing. I almost wonder if Georgie wants him coming back and wants me going back out of town? I sure hope anytime I need to get another dog sitter. Marco is available because he was absolutely amazing. Thank you, Rover for creating such an amazing opportunity for dog owners and those who love dogs to come together.”
“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!”
“As a pet sitter myself, I can be picky regarding who I pick to watch my animals. I am grateful to have found Monica and glad she was available during the busy holiday season. She great care of the animals, including my roommates pup. She sent pictures which made us feel great and took care of the home. We appreciate the care that was put into looking after the furbabies. Will use Monica again!”
“My dog Lilo absolutely loves Kendra. It is so comforting to know that your pet is well taken care of while you are away on vacation. Pet sitting or housesitting, I would book her again and again.”
“This was the fourth or fifth time Sarah watched our animals for us and, once again, we returned to happy well cared for animals. Plus we really appreciate the frequent photos she sends of them. We will definitely use her again.”
“Madelyn was a fantastic find on here. She was super reliable, I love that she asked so many questions to prepare for her stay, and I really appreciated the picture updates. I came home to a clean house and happy pups! She even deep cleaned the water bowls voluntarily. I have never seen these bowls shine so bright before. 🤣 I highly recommend Madelyn and would love to book again with her in the future”
“Shanika was, by far, the best dog sitter we have had on this service. We’ve had very poor experiences recently with rover and were near giving up finding someone we could trust to watch our 2 dogs at our house. Shanika was our saving grace. Will be booking her again!! She sent so many updates and videos of the dogs which we love! If you have been struggling with other dog sitters on Rover, Shanika is your answer. Truly!!”
“Tiana was soooooo kind, helpful, flexible, and amazing! She helped us in a bind and we highly recommend her to all. Our sweet baby got sick and we couldn’t send him to our usual daycare. Tiana provided enrichment & TLC to our toddler. Thank youuuuuu ♥️🐾”
“Anna was so great with communication. She was very thoughtful and sent multiple photos of our dog while we were out of town. Would definitely recommend her to everyone.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - American Fork
Samantha watched our boy while we were coming back from a trip abroad. It can be nerve wracking having one sitter leave, and another sitter show up while you're in another country, but Samantha made the transition stress free! She communicated with me, was very flexible, took great care of our doggo, and we came home to a clean house. It was so amazing coming home to a happy pup and a well-kept house after being away.
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! 😊
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!

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 September 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 September 2026, there are 2,674 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.

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.
