“Aria was an awesome house and pet sitter for us! She was super responsive, prompt, and took such great care of everything while we were away. She gave us peace of mind! Thank you so much, hope to see you again soon!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old and trained my dog by myself. My dog, Coco is at home in Salt Lake City, and is still alive (13 years old!) and happy and healthy. I will spoil your pets and love them like you love them I’m a student, and I love pets and walking, so I can do walks once or multiple times per day! I would be more than happy to do so I will follow the instructions you give me for the care of your pets in your own home whilst being respectful and responsible of the house and your little family member :) Your pet will receive much love from me!
“Aleya was the best Rover sitter we’ve had. She was attentive, communicative, and reliable. It was obvious that she very carefully read our detailed dog care and house guide. Regarding the dogs, both our senior dogs took to her quickly. They loved the overnight snuggles she offered and we loved the regular updates she provided us with. Regarding the house, it was so nice to come home to a tidy home. While we were away, a Blue Apron box arrived and Aleya was attentive enough to message us asking if we wanted her to unpack it in the fridge. It was a very positive experience working with her all around!”
“We have used MacKenzie on two occasions now she is absolutely wonderful, very personable with our little dog Sophie. When we call in or text to check in on how things are going, she gets back to us right away always gives us a good report on how things are going and just makes us feel so comfortable that she’s home taking care of our little dog. She really knows what she is doing. She loves pets and knows how to take very good care of them. I would highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed.”
“Emily is fantastic. She made sure all of Kodas needs were met while watching her, including taking her for hikes and trips to the dog park! It’s always reassuring knowing Koda is having fun and getting exercise when I have to travel for work. Emily was easy to communicate with and left the house very tidy. I’ll definitely be utilizing Emily’s services again.”
“Heather was beyond amazing!! She went above and beyond with her stay here with our 2 pups. They are both very high energy and she was able to wear them out day in and day out. She was extremely neat and tidy while house sitting and made sure the dogs were well taken care of. Previously, it had been stressful leaving our dogs for trips but Heather communicated very well and sent photos and videos throughout the day so we did not have to worry at all. I would recommend her to anyone as she is the best sitter I have met. She is well worth the price as she will love your animals like her own and give them their own mini vacation. I can not recommend Heather enough 😊”
“There aren’t enough words of gratitude that I have for the care and attention Betty provided when sitting my pups! She communicates as often as I need. She sends updates and it is clear that my pups are well loved when she is with them!”
About: From senior pups with special needs to energetic dogs and curious cats—I’ve cared for them all like family, with patience, love, and dependable attention every day. With a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve—whether it’s for a quick drop-in or an extended stay. I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, energy levels, and health needs. I’ve looked after my own senior dog with pancreatic disease and spent weeks caring for my aunt’s high-energy dog and curious cat. Whether it’s administering special meals, giving extra walks, or creating a calm environment, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
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.
About: My whole life I've grown up with many dogs and I absolutely adore them!! I love walking them, playing with them, taking them out for car rides, etc. For a little over three years now I've been dogsitting and catsitting for my dad's friends. I've cared for cats previously, but I didn't have my very first cat until very recently, and I adore them as well! I'm more than willing to scoop litter, pick up after they potty, walk pets, and have a designated play time with them (: During the summer I work part time in the evenings and am not very busy outside of that, so I'm more than able to be with the pet during the day. At night, I usually work for about 5/6 hours, and am flexible enough to check on pets at night after work as well. In the fall when school starts, I will not be so available for check ins, but am able to spend nights with pets, and am flexible enough to do some dogwalking if necessary. When that time approaches, I will update my availability! Since cats don't usually require to be let outside, I'll be much more flexible with catsitting than dogsitting, but am still willing to do both! I usually work at my job 3-4 nights a week. In client's homes I make sure to spend a good amount of time with pets because I know they're missing their owners. I give them treats, pet them, cuddle with them, and walk them. Before I leave for anywhere I make sure that they have food, water, and they've used the potty, that way clients can be assured there will be no accidents in the home, and their pet is being properly cared for. Some cats prefer to spend time alone, and if that's the case, of course I have no problem leaving them be. As a pet owner myself, I can tell when sometimes the pets don't want to play and just wanna nap, or when they want to be left alone. Additionally, I make sure to take care of their house and clean up after myself! Beforehand, I'd love to meet with the client that way I can get to know everyone, and build some trust between me, the client, and the pet (:
“My wife and I have asked Michelle to house and dog sit several times and she continues to be incredible. We trust her with everything! We just got back into town from a 5 day trip and she cleaned the sheets, towels, bathroom, kitchen, living room, and fridge before she left. We know our dog is in great hands - she sends several updates per day, each with better pictures of our dog than we are able to take.”
“Emily did a fantastic job. She is super responsive and I came home to a happy dog. She took my higher-energy breed dog to play outside multiple times a day. I would definitely book her to house sit with my dog again.”
“Gaby is a gem! She did SO well with our sweet senior pup, going above and beyond to give her lots of snuggles and attention, sending us frequent updates and cute photos, and taking great care of our house too. She cares deeply about animals and we are grateful she cares for ours too! She came for meet and greets, asked great questions, and noted down all the important details about our dog including medications etc.. We would strongly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to have her back over to care for our dog again!”
“Anna was wonderful. It was our first time using her and we were very nervous to leave our dogs but Anna understood our anxiety and sent us messages and photos frequently so we could check in on them. She responded to all my texts right away and to top it off we came home to a very clean house! I'd recommend her and we will be using her for future dog sitting needs!”
“We love Karlla!! My sweet old cat was happy and comfortable while we were away. She was very calm and relaxed when we got back. Karlla also took great care of our space and made sure plants were watered and hummingbirds were fed. We would absolutely recommend her and have her back for another stay. Thanks Karlla!!!”
About: I just finished my freshman year of college. I love all animals and grew up around dogs. I have plenty of experience sitting and walking small and big dogs. I’m currently a student at the University of Utah but I have plenty of availability to stop by during the day and check on the pets. I only care for pets in the owners home. But I’ll do whatever is needed and I make sure the pet is well loved and happy.
The median cost per night for house sitting in East Millcreek is $45

Catherine was an excellent cat/house sitter during our 2 week vacation this summer! She kept in touch with updates on our kitties and gave me great peace of mind while we were away that everything was safe and sound at home. We hope she will stay again next time we go away.
Sydney was easy to communicate with and took great care of Koda while I was out of town. Left the house tidy and even came back to check in on her and play some fetch on the last day since I didn’t return until the evening. Would recommend and use Sydney again!
We love Karlla!! My sweet old cat was happy and comfortable while we were away. She was very calm and relaxed when we got back. Karlla also took great care of our space and made sure plants were watered and hummingbirds were fed. We would absolutely recommend her and have her back for another stay. Thanks Karlla!!!
Emily was very communicative and sent pictures/videos throughout the entire trip. She even went above and beyond with housesitting duties, including washing sheets. I was out of cell phone service most of the time I was gone, and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Emily’s care! Royce clearly had a wonderful time with her and I will definitely book again in the future.
My dog Ellie was not only safe, but she was happy, exercised, and emotionally fulfilled upon my arrival. Diana went above and beyond as she cared for my home and our baby. She sent regular updates which I was absolutely obsessed with. It is not easy leaving behind my home and fur baby, but I felt completely at ease during Diana’s entire stay in my home.
Kamryn took care of our babies without much guidance. We left her a few sticky notes with instructions and she handled the rest! Made our vacation stress-free. Our dog can be testy with strangers, but Kamryn did not need a meet and greet to be instant friends with Nakita. Thank you!
This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit concerned with what to expect and how it would go, but Bonnie eased all our concerns and made the whole process very easy ! She sat for two of our dogs and one of our cats over the weekend. One of our dogs has high anxiety and can sometimes be leery meeting new people, but he loved Bonnie from the first meet and greet. She handled him perfectly and I think he may have found a new bestie! She sent pictures and updates regularly. We have already booked another weekend with her later this summer. Thanks for your professionalism and care, Bonnie! You made our experience so wonderful!
Wally had another great stay with Madison! I came home to a tired dog and clean house, which is always a great feeling after a long vacation. She sent daily updates and pictures, and took him for daily trail hikes or runs. Highly recommend, especially if you have a dog that needs quality exercise!

FAQs for House Sitting - East Millcreek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Millcreek on Rover is $64.2 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,874 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Millcreek. 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 East Millcreek 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 East Millcreek 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 East Millcreek 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
