“Heaven did two drop in visits for me and sent amazing updates! She is very friendly with a calming presence. She was able to come at odd hours which is so appreciated! She sent photos where I could tell the dogs were both very calm and happy. If I ever need her help again I won’t hesitate to reach out!”

About: Tried to be a breeder for the Daniff breed. Mixes of Great Danes and Mastiffs. Ours happens to be the Italian mastiff (Cane Corso). We were expecting 6 puppies and my wife saved them all and our Great Dane had 10. I also have 3 French bulldogs at the house. So know how to care for big or small. Can’t have kids, so we naturally have 9 dogs. You can imagine it takes up a lot of our day, pretty much all dogs all the time, and one brave cat. I don’t do care at my home. I’ll do drop-ins or stay at your house. I have too many giant dogs, to bring any over.
About: I have three dogs of my own, two Aussie mixes and one Yorkie mix, so I’m very used to lots of energy and personality. I used to train my oldest dog in agility and loved it, and I’ve been the go‑to dog sitter for my aunt’s friends, family and neighbors. I also worked at a doggy daycare and absolutely adored all the pups there. Dogs are honestly my safe place; I feel happiest and most myself when I’m around them. I love taking them on hikes, neighborhood walks, lake days, and playing fetch, and I always make sure they get plenty of outside time and attention. I treat every dog like my own and want you to feel totally comfortable trusting me with your best friend. I’ve taken care of all kinds of pups, from tiny puppies and seniors to a sweet three‑legged dog, so I’m used to different needs and energy levels. I’m working Monday–Friday, 8–3, from May 5th to June 25th, and then I’m free any time during the week. I can do walks, drop-ins, and house sitting around my work schedule now, and I’m wide open all day on Saturdays and Sundays. We always go to a park or around the neighborhood for walks and playtime. I care for pets in my clients’ homes by sticking to their normal routine and following all instructions for walks, feeding, and meds. I make sure they have fresh water, a clean area, lots of attention, and I send updates and photos. I also treat my clients’ homes with respect and always lock up and tidy before I leave.
“Chris took care of my bunny on short notice, which I really appreciate! He was able to come over same day to grab a key/go over Bij’s routine. He was very communicative and left me detailed messages after his visits, I would ask him to watch my pet again!”

“Zanubia was super communicative and took good care of our 3 cats. She kept us up to date on which ones she saw (we have 2 that regularly hide with new people) and took cute photos of the ones she saw. Would use again and would recommend!”

“Morgan did a great job with our big boy. We were out of the country and she came by for drop-in visits to give him fresh air and some activity. I know he looked forward to the fun visits by all the wonderful photos she took. Thank you Morgan!”

“Meisha did an amazing job caring for our cat Baxter. She is a reliable, communicative sitter. Meisha sent photos and updates at every drop-in and was easy to get a hold of if we had a question. We definitely plan to hire Meisha when we travel again in the future.”

“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.”

“Afia stepped in when our first sitter went MIA after we had already left for our trip and we were so grateful!! Our pup loved her, she was incredibly communicative, and I had no worries at all. Would definitely book again.”

“Sami is awesome! We ended up just giving her a key to our apartment and would ask her frequently and often with short notice to come by and take our dog Rey out if we would be away for several hours, which was a huge help. She was great with Rey and always played with her and was very attentive to her needs.”

“Kira is a sweetheart and my dog, Maizy, took to her right away. Kira did drop in visits, took her on walks, and spent extra time with her. Maizy was so happy with the attention and Kira was great company for her. I looked forward to the updates, receiving notes/picture each time. Kira is trustworthy and I really appreciate her tender loving care of my sweet puppy.”

Happy to be a trusted friend in taking care of your pet! I work from home most days and so am pretty free for walks boarding and the like. I live nearby several big open fields for playing, if allowed! We have a clean, calm and safe home with no other pets- so yours will have our full attention and space to feel comfortable. Will follow your routine closely and any special insurrections :)

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats since I was 5, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I love spending time with pets and have years of hands-on experience feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with them. I’m currently home from school for the summer and have plenty of free time to dedicate to your pets. Whether they need company, playtime, walks, or extra attention, I’m available to spend lots of quality time with your fur babies! I have a fenced yard with a doggie door. I have two dogs and three cats to play with your pup! I also have a dog crate if needed!

About: Heyo! My name is Ahri. I am a 24 year old female. I have cared for my own and other people’s pets since I was 13. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I have always enjoyed giving special attention, walks, and grooming to fur-babies of all sizes. I do not currently live in a pet-friendly home, however I’d be more than happy to accompany pets in the comfort of your home. I am hoping for this to be a side job while I’m in school. If I could do this full time someday, that would be amazing. For now I should be available Monday through Friday up until 3pm. I would care for your pets as if they were my own! Fed, watered, walked, groomed, or simply some attention… whatever your fur-babies need, I’m there!
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life so i have lots of experience taking care of them! I also have experience cat sitting for neighbors and family members. I volunteer every year at best friends to take care of a variety of cats and dogs and give them the help they need. i am free as a bird! Taking care of your fur baby will be my number one priority. I am available whenever you will need me so just send me a text and i’ll be there! When caring for pets in my home, safety is the top priority. I ensure that all potentially hazardous materials, such as cleaning supplies and medications, are stored securely out of reach. i will maintain their regular routine so they feel comfortable and secure.
“Steven was great!!! He is great at communicating and responds super fast. He was amazing with our dog, and gave great photos and updates in our rover card. Can’t wait to book with him again! Thank you so much for watching our dog!!”

About: I love animals. I have been caring for them for years and find joy in making sure they are happy. It is my first priority to care for your pet in the way you prefer. I am punctual and excited to meet new pets that I can care for. I’m an independent contractor which means I get to create my schedule. Luckily for me, this means I can pick up different side hustles at whatever times I want. I already do cardio everyday by walking so this would fit perfectly into my routine. Whatever rules or expectations the owner wants, I will take with great care, caution, and intention. The safety of your pet and the respect of your home is of utmost importance to me.
About: Cats and dogs love me and I love them! On top of that, I've taken care of a number of family friends' pets (dogs and cats mostly) while they were away for various lengths of time from days to weeks. That care included feeding, walking, bedding down for the night, housesitting, cleaning litter boxes, and so on. I'm working on becoming a published author and I can write anywhere. That gives me a lot of flexibility. Have laptop, will travel. What more can I say? I usually prefer to stay at the client's home so that I can be right there to care for their pets to the best of my ability.
“Shyanne was great! My dog loved her and looked forward to every visit! She was so sweet with my dog and went above and beyond with her caretaking! She even brought in any packages that were delivered and we got more than expected while gone thanks to a baby registry?. We loved her and we would and will definitely rebook with her if needing a sitter in the future! Thanks Shyanne”


“Jenny is amazing! I don't have to worry a bit when I know Jenny is looking after my little family. She's dependable and sweet with my dogs, and I'll choose her every time!”
Cottonwood Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alayna is consistent, prompt, a great communicator, and cares well for our sweet girl. Rose is a big dog with some mild mobility issues and Alayna makes sure she is well taken care of. We would recommend Alayna to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!

I have had the privilege of having Crystal take care of my dog Lily the past couple of years, and she goes absolutely above and beyond in dog care. We have never had someone so attentive, caring, loving, and courteous. My dog can be quite shy and reserved, especially with new people, but in no time at all she was wagging her tail and squealing with excitement when it came time to hang out with Crystal. Soon after, she would perk up and start wagging her tail with a mere mention of Crystal's name! Separation anxiety can go both ways, but with Crystal I always know my dog is incredibly happy and given ample attention, love, care, exercise, and affection. From afternoon walks to week-long trips, she always takes care of my Lily as her own, and I have peace of mind knowing that Lily is in the best of hands. Thank you, Crystal, for all of your help over the years!
Meggie was great with our puppy! She let him out on time, played with him, and even sent us a cute photo! He definitely gained a new friend! I had forgotten to tell her to put him back in his crate but she did it anyways, which was relieving to us to know he wasn’t left wandering around the house. It’s great to know he was in good hands while we were out. We’ll definitely book her again!

Sky did drop-ins with my gang while I went away for the weekend (3rd time hiring her), and again everything was stellar. My dog had an accident (the messy #2 kind), and Sky washed the rug and cleaned the rug pad. She's top tier. If you can book her, do it without hesitation!
