“I am so relieved to have found Kristi! She spent an hour with my funny and sometimes aggressive cat for each of the last 10 days. She sent me daily pictures and updates - and because she listened to my recommendations, my cat was only aggressive with her for the first few days. Other pet sitters have been aggressive back to my cat - not a good way to make a good impression on a stressed out cat. Kristi watered my plants and brought in packages from the front porch. She responded to my messages to her quickly - I will be using her in the future. Highly recommended!”
“I cannot praise Jenna enough! I'm always hesitant to leave my two old bois behind, but, after the first day, I knew hiring Jenna wast the right choice. Communication was impeccable and the photos were great. Jenna exceeded my expectations; highly recommend their top-notch service!”
“Suni did a great job watching my cat while I was in Hawaii. I was a little nervous about leaving him for 10 days but she was diligent with her updates and it made me feel at ease. Would definitely recommend.”
“Lindsey was super flexible in assisting us in a last minute situation. Her communication was excellent and she gave us frequent updates regarding our dog which made us feel at ease. We would highly recommend her.”
About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have been caring for pets professionally for about 5 years now and have experience with both cats and dogs. I am happy to provide personalized care and plenty of attention. I do work a full time job therefore I may not be the right match for those looking for more potty breaks frequently throughout the day. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm and pet friendly environment where both dogs and cats can feel safe. I’m attentive to each pets individual, routine, personality and needs.
“Diane is amazing! It's clear she loves cats and gave my two girls so much love and attention! I've had a rough time finding a good cat sitter and Diane calmed all the anxieties I've had with leaving my cats in someone else's care. Thank you Diane!”
About: I love dogs, cats and parrots. I have experience feeding, bathing, walking, playing and caring for friends, neighbors and my own animals. I know how important your fur babies are to you and I would love and treat your pet family as if they were my own. I have had 4 dogs for 12 years and 4 parrots for 25 years. I especially love to interact with animals getting on their level to play and cuddle. I love to walk and would play with them outside as they like. I know food can be so important. One of my strengths is organization and would follow feeding and any other instructions to the letter. I am happy to provide daily updates and pictures to give you peace of mind. Your home will be treated with care and left better than it was found. I work weekends and can spend time everyday with your pets. I am a chef and run my own business so when I am working I can take a break to check on your pets. My evenings are free and I can help your pet keep the routine they are used to. I have a fenced in yard and a fur baby who keeps to himself. There is plenty of space to run and play and also nap.
“Angelica was recommended to us by our normal cat sitter when she wasn’t available. She did a great job filling in and took charge of coordinating with our normal cat sitter for details since we were unavailable on travel. Thanks for the help!”
“Morgan is absolutely wonderful!! My dogs love when she comes to visit. She’s great at playing with them and doing activities for them and she’s very respectful of my home. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Alaina was very professional and took excellent care of our cats while we were kn vacation. Took plenty of time to visit with them and make sure they had plenty of love!”
“This was my third time booking with Megan, and once again she took wonderful care of my cats. She is reliable, communicative, and always keeps me updated through the Rover cards, which gives me great peace of mind while I'm away. Suellen and Frajola mean the world to me, and I can truly relax knowing they are in such caring hands. Even though my cats don't always get along perfectly, she handles them with patience and care. I highly recommend Megan and will definitely book with her again.”
About: I have a lot of experience with walking dogs as I volunteer at the humane society walking dogs. I have experience taking care of sick cats and elderly cats in whatever needs they have. I take care of my dog every day taking him on walks or playing with him. I go to the humane society 3 times a week either walking dogs, hanging out with cats, or working in the clinic I care for the pets as I would my own, with all the love I can give. Whether that is taking him on daily walks, chilling on the coach, playing fetch, or bringing home pup cups
“Carin was fantastic in all aspects in taking care of my dog for drop in walks while I enjoyed a ski vacation with my boys. I’d highly recommend Cari and would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Dakota did such a great job taking care of my pup - especially on short notice. She was very communicative and sent tons of photos and recaps after each walk. I’ll definitely be looking to book her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cottonwood Heights
Stevie was great! First of all, she was super responsive with messages which was incredibly appreciated with a last minute need. She took great care of my girls and sent lots of updates and photos, even refilling their water bowls without being asked after a long fetch session on a hot day :) I will definitely use her again in the future!
Kelcie did an amazing job taking care of our dog and our home while we were away! She came by each day without fail, kept our pup happy and loved, and even collected our chicken eggs — which was above and beyond! We came home to a happy dog and everything exactly as we left it. She is reliable, caring, and clearly a true animal lover. We would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cottonwood Heights stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Cottonwood Heights 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cottonwood Heights with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
