“Meretta once again went above and beyond for my babies. One of my cats had a medical emergency and she was quick to communicate concerns and offer a camera to set up so I could check in on my cat while I was out of town. I so appreciate her keen eye and sense of how my animals are doing. Highly recommend!”

“Chantelle was great to work with! We did a meet and greet before the scheduled visits which was helpful for our pup and us. She was very communicative before, during, and following visits, letting us know how it went. She’s very kind and we would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I've owned and cared for various pets over the past 20 years. I've gained experience caring for animals outside of my own pets by working at shelters and vet clinics. I performed tasks ranging from kennel cleaning to assisting the vet in surgeries. I can do grooming such as bathing, brushing, and nail trimming. I have a passion for hiking and would love to take your pup along for the adventure, of course, doing so safely! My schedule is flexible and adaptable, allowing me to accommodate your needs as well as those of your pups. I am willing to adjust my hours and routines to best suit your specific requirements, whether it's early mornings, evenings, or weekends. This ensures that I can provide tailored care and support for you and your pets, no matter what your daily schedule entails. I will treat your beloved furbaby as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I will meticulously follow all specific requests and instructions you provide regarding their care, routines, and any special needs. Rest assured, your pup is in trustworthy hands with me.

About: What sets me apart is the amount of time, attention and companionship your dog will receive while in my care. I've spent more than 25 years around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I've trained several of my own. This experience helps me understand different personalities and adapt to each dog's unique needs. I work from home, so dogs in my care are rarely left alone and receive plenty of supervision throughout the day. To ensure every pet gets the attention they deserve, I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time. This allows me to provide a more personalized experience and helps each dog feel comfortable, safe and at home. Whether your dog loves to be active or prefers a quieter environment, I tailor their stay to fit their needs. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, play time in the yard, and visiting the dog park for dogs that are social and enjoy that environment. My home is filled with love, attention, and plenty of opportunities for play, cuddles, and companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I'm already caring for my own dog. I am a stay at home mom, so your dog will have plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day—not long hours alone. I have a dog of my own and make exercise and enrichment a priority, whether that's trips to the dog park, walks around the neighborhood, playtime in our fenced yard, or one-on-one activities tailored to your dog's personality and comfort level. Because I'm always home and have a flexible schedule, I'm able to accommodate a variety of drop-off and pick-up times. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. I like to care for every pet as if they were my own while making sure to follow their owner's routine and preferences as close as possible. I prioritize safety, affection and plenty of stimulation. I follow a normal 2x a day feeding schedule, provide regular potty breaks, daily exercise/playtime and a comfortable place to relax. I can also administer oral medication if needed. I pay close attention to each dog's personality and energy level so they feel comfortable and stress-free during their stay.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes for over 20 years. As a lifelong animal lover, I treat every pet in my care like part of the family. My goal is to give owners complete peace of mind while they are away by maintaining your dog's regular routine, providing plenty of playtime, and keeping you updated with frequent pictures and check-ins. As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is wonderfully flexible and pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine! I am home throughout the day, meaning boarders and daycare pets get constant supervision, love, and company. I handle morning and afternoon school runs for my older kids, but otherwise, my full focus is right here at home. I am easily available for mid-day check-ins, drop-in visits, flexible pick-ups/drop-offs, and plenty of backyard playtime. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, secure, and welcoming environment where they are treated like family. We maintain a clean, pet-friendly setup with plenty of room to relax or play indoors and out. I follow your exact feeding, exercise, and care instructions to keep your pet's routine consistent and stress-free. Whether your pet prefers active playtime or quiet lounging, I ensure a supervised, calm space and send regular photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
“Nicole was the best taking care of my girls. She made sure they each had the kind of attention the need and want, which is very different from each other. I appreciated the updates, pictures and small details only a true dog lover would know to give.”

“Kelsey was able to do a last minute drop in visit on a holiday. I couldn’t thank her enough! I loved the photos and was so glad to see my little guy taken care of. Thank you again!!”

“My family and I could not have been happier with the care Samye provided for our cats while we were on vacation! For 3 weeks, she visited every other day, scooped their litter and made sure they had food and water and even gave them a bit of special canned food on each visit. We got pictures of our kitties every time Samye visited. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our cats were in such good hands. We will DEFINITELY be using Samye to take care of our pets anytime we travel!”

My dogs help me around the house as I get things done. I have a fenced in yard with two of my own dogs to keep yours company! Occasionally I let the dogs inside to hang out and eat, or depending on the weather to keep warm/cool. At bedtime I bring them in to sleep in their dog crate.

About: Pretty much my entire life I have grown up around pets! My family has had 4 dogs in the last 28 years of my life. We had one Siberian husky, 2 wire hair fox terriers and 1 Sheltie. I am beginning a masters program at the university of Utah starting next week. Mondays are really the only difficult days to watch pets because I have to drive to campus on Mondays from Provo. But all other days I have classes on line so I would be flexible to pass by. I do have a part time job with Smith’s in Provo and hours are variable but it would work ok for me to watch pets before or after I work depending on when I’m scheduled. I don’t mind bringing my laptop over to do school work while watching the pets if ok with you. I have Sundays marked as unavailable because I will not charge you to watch your pets on Sundays. I will do Sundays for free as a service. The place I am living at right now is not my own so unfortunately I am not able to bring pets over to my place

About: While I've grown up with dogs (from little to large breeds), I've an affinity and appreciation for all animals and am confident in my capacity to provide care, respectively. I understand how wonderfully special they are, offering unrivaled companionship, connection, and comfort; that they inspire joy and gratitude in our hearts through their individual character, play, and temperament. My intent and investment in the care of other's animals is to elicit and instill a peace of mind that their care is like that of my own (though, of course, only second best to oneself). I'm currently available, working remotely with a pretty flexible schedule, to attend to your best friend, be it dog, cat, or kiddo's leopard gecko or rabbit. At this time, my kind, attentive, and consistent care extends exclusively to that in / around my clients' homes. I want you and your pet to feel the most at ease -- in that of a known and comfortable environment. I'm amenable and responsive to any instructions, preferences, and needs. Most recently, I cared for a two-year-old mini Golden Doodle (while housesitting in Northern California) that unexpectedly developed an unfortunate "hot spot". Through diligent communication with her owners (who were vacationing in Europe), we coordinated how best to proceed. This included several visits to a vet, where she also, as it turned out, had double ear infections. Treatment protocol required both topical and oral medications twice daily. I recorded an audio of the summary diagnosis from the vet and shared this with her humans, as well as regular updates and photos of the healing progress. Simultaneously, I was asked to move her to a balanced raw diet (like that of my own dog), and which required more effort but that was entirely inline with what I'm already accustomed.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Elk Ridge is $16

Kaylie is the BEST! My cat is so shy, but Kaylie was able to help her feel comfortable and play with her while we were gone. She is great at communicating and was very caring. I would highly recommend her if you need someone to check on your animals when you’re away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,072 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Elk Ridge. 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.

- 95% 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.
