About: I have watched/ taken care of animals for the last 15 years. From dogs to cats and all shapes and sizes. A lot of my former roommates would rely on me to watch their animals while they were out during the week and weekends. I work from 9 to 4 Monday-Friday. I have the weekends off. I love dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs. Taking care of animals is second nature to me. For my rabbit she likes to hop around. All cords and electric devices are put away for her safety due to she gets curious sometimes. Pet safety is number one to me.
“Shayla is the best.!! She just loves our puppies and they love her too. She went above and beyond with our dogs. Not only did she come over and feed them, but gave them treats, fresh water and took them for walks twice a day. We highly recommend her for your pets. She is awesome!!🐶🐕😍”
“Katelyn was fantastic with Cody. She was very attentive and caring for Cody. He was an happy pup when I got home. Thank you so much for watching him! Recommend Katelyn to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter.”
“Ashley really did a great job with my pups. From the first meet and greet to the days she stopped in. She kept in touch with me and send me pictures. She is very professional and loving. I will be using her in the future and highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve been living and working with dog since i was 5 years old. I have great understanding and respect for all animals and how they work. I grew up with a large Lab, when I moved out I rescued two large dogs of my own from poor living situation. We have been going strong for over 9 years now. I’m more than capable of handling any size dog, and have no problem looking after cats!
“Kyle went above and beyond!!! I truly could not be more thankful for all his flexibility and help. He is not only an excellent communicator but genuinely cares about the well-being of your animals and alleviates any anxiety that comes with leaving your pet alone? As a nervous cat mom myself, he made me feel confident and comfortable that my cat and home were properly taken care of. Kyle is a very trustworthy, responsible animal lover that I will definitely be reaching out to in the future for help!”
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.
“Elva was very responsive. She texts frequent updates on my fur babies. She shows up on time and ensures all of my animals have all of their needs and wants met. She made sure everyone was happy and safe. She answered any questions I had promptly. She shows true love and care for animals.”
“Natasha was great! She made sure our puppy was taken care of and gave it time to play with toys. No accidents when we came home! She responded within a few hours of my initial request, which worked perfectly for us.”
“Jenna did such an amazing job!! She was so great at giving us updates, sending pictures and letting us know how our cats were doing! Definitely recommend her!!”
“Becky did an amazing job caring for my diabetic cat. My cat can be a challenge at times when getting shots from anyone other than myself, but Becky persevered! She went out of her way to ensure my cat got his insulin, even when he was acting angry about it. Becky gave me daily updates with photos so I could be at peace knowing how my cat was doing and behaving. She cleaned the litter box and left a clean house. Becky truly has a love for animals and I would recommend her as a great pet sitter!”
About: I am a mother of 3. My kids grew up with mommy doing Rover! They are trained to not mess with animals. They love playing fetch with the dog's and cuddling! We have a fully fenced back yard and all our furniture is pet friendly! We want your pets to feel at home here. We allow dogs to sleep in our bed with us and on our couches. My kids are in daycare during the week but I work from home! So during the days it's just me with the dogs. They are typically never left alone. I send tons of pictures to all the dogs owners so you will always be updated! We like being your pets family while your away! So I work from home! I wake up at 6am and feed the dogs and let them out. Since I am home I let the dogs outside quite often! I usually feed the dogs around 5 then go pick up my kids from daycare. Then the whole family is home for family and doggy time! We have a fenced in back yard and zero doggy doors. We have a very safe home. We try to teach our kids not to feed the dogs any human food so we don't ruin the diet you have your dog on!
“It was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous about using the app. I really love Lucille (my cat) and I had a couple of bad experiences on the app with other sitters until I met Marissa. She is simply the best! Since the first time that she went to my place to meet Lucille, I could see how professional she was and how passionate she was for animals. Every time she visited her, she kept me informed about Lucille's activities and sent me a photo of her. I would strongly recommend Marissa and I will definitely rebook when I am out of town. Overall, an excellent experience and the best sitter!”
About: I've raised my dog Fulton, a pomeranian for 10 years, through the puppy stage and into his senior years. That's taught me how much routines, energy levels, and needs change over a dog's life, and how to adjust walks to match. What you can expect: On-time walks with a photo and update after every visit Routes suited to your dog's energy, from city parks to red rock trails Clear communication through the Rover app, start to finish I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, so check my calendar or send a message to book a Meet and Greet. I work for myself, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually fit walks in during the day, including midday breaks. I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, and I keep my Rover calendar current so you always know when I'm in your area. Walks start and end at your home. Before the first walk, we'll do a Meet and Greet so I can learn your dog's routine, leash habits, and any triggers. On every walk I: -Use your dog's leash and harness, double-checked before we head out -Avoid busy roads and adjust for heat, cold, and trail conditions -Keep your dog away from unfamiliar dogs unless you've said it's okay -Lock up behind me and send a photo and update when we're done
About: I grew up with 35+ lb dogs, ranging from 8 months old and unpotty trained to 10 years old and needing medication. I love working and playing with dogs, nothing is better than getting outside for a good play or a walk! I do have a 5 year old sweetheart of my own, and would need to bring her for overnight stays. She’s very friendly with other dogs and extremely mellow, and I’m happy to set up a puppy play date beforehand! I have classes Monday-Thursday afternoons, but I am the go to gal for your weekend trips and lower maintenance dogs! With four days fully available I have all the time to play with your pups! My apartment complex has some outdoor areas where I walk my dog off leash, but I also make sure to take her to the dog park once a day! We’re very careful about picking up after ourselves and keeping everything within (and out of) reach dog friendly!
“Skylar was great taking care of our two dogs and two cats for a few days while we were away. She took great care at making sure we had pictures and the dogs were walked everyday. She was attentive to their needs and even noticed that our dogs nails were getting a little long and offered to help!”
About: I am very outgoing, positive and I love dogs. I am patient and caring and can't wait to help you not stress and your pup feel cared for when you are away! At the moment I am at Weber State University student-athlete. I am originally from Oregon and I miss my little beagle so much so I would love to help you with your busy schedules in any way I can and care for you dog(s). Most of the time I will be free Friday - Sunday for house sitting. For walks I am more free because I can come before, between, or even after classes and practice. I can even come let your dogs out for a potty break in between classes, whatever you need help with. I currently live in the dorms so I would have to come to your home if I am pet sitting. I am very responsible and a very hard worker. I would respect your things and only do the things you tell me and need help with. I am a very trustworthy person and very respectful so if you need any help at all of have questions feel free to reach out.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
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 Farmington 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
