About: I’ve had animals all my life, we typically had 3-4 dogs at a time. I helped my father train them for hunting as well as simple house training. I am currently working for Coca-Cola Saturday-Wednesday. I am available all day Thursday- Friday, available every other day after 3 pm for walks and such I will do my best to follow any accommodations that your pets need and give you peace of mind. I’m very flexible to your needs and preferences.
About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals of all shapes and sizes. From grumpy elders, introverted and awkward, to overcuddly (actually, I don't think it's possible for dogs to be overcuddly, haha), to high-energy pups, I love them all! I have experience caring for dogs with reactivity, aggression, fearfulness, anxiety, and medical needs . Dogs who may be misunderstood or who require extra patience are welcome! As someone who has had a reactive dog, I understand the struggle it can be to find someone to trust your pet with. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and will work closely with you to make sure your dog feels safe and cared for. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to adjust to their routine and needs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate time, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I will respect your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m comfortable with detailed routines, leash safety, medication instructions, feeding needs, and dogs who require extra patience or boundaries. I will always pay attention to your pet’s body language and comfort level, and I’ll treat them with patiencr and respect.
“Emily was the best, we’ll definitely be booking her for our future trips. We got some fantastic updates, and Figgy took a liking to Emily that to be honest made us a little jealous!!! Cheers Emily.”
About: I’ve fostered 5 different dogs from the Humane Society of Utah (3 wks - 2 mo each). I was responsible for feeding, exercising, administering meds, and providing water for the dogs. I volunteered for Second Chance for Homeless Pets, where I cleaned kennels, fed animals, completed simple cleaning tasks, & bathed a dog. I completed 4 semesters of the vet tech program at Broadview University, where I learned about proper veterinary care, including administering meds, making general health assessments, walking dogs, cleaning kennels/clinic/classrooms, etc. During this time, I completed a preceptorship at Sugarhouse Veterinary Hospital, where I was able to sit in on a surgery. I worked as a vet tech at Banfield Pet Hospital for 3 months. I also worked at The City Pet Club Dog Daycare & Boarding facility and I’ve been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I have my own all natural dog treats and dog shampoo and a defurminator deshedding brush tool. I currently work from home and am very flexible for the purpose of taking care of your fur babies. I love all animals and would be privileged to watch yours. Water, food, treats, baths, walks, hiking, runs, dog park visits, dog pool visits, ball/toys, able to administer meds and address wounds, etc. I am a very good dog masseuse. Haha
About: I have two dogs myself both going to be two in May. I’ve had a multiple different animals growing up. in school to be a veterinarian. I am free in the afternoon after 4pm and during the weekend, I’m free anytime. In the holidays it’s more hard to fit in my schedule, but I try to get as much as I can open so I can help. I make sure that they have the food and water that they need and also the right amount of exercise daily. We have many toys and we have a Dog Park that is really close by to my house and also quite a bit of hikes nearby.
About: I have gone to peoples houses to hang out with their pets! I love all dogs, my parents have a dog who is dog aggressive and needs lots of extra and specific attention. I know how to handle dogs and I absolutely adore all animals! I am extremely allergic to cats. I cannot house sit if there are cats in the house. I am a university of Utah student, I don’t have a super busy schedule. I have classes during the week, not on Friday's, and chapter(sorority) on Monday night for at most 2 hours(which is unusual) I cannot book at my home, my lease says I cannot have any pets in the house at any time, I will be more than willing to come and stay at your house!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,897 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Croydon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Croydon. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
