About: I have grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals, and caring for them has always been a natural and effortless love of mine. Over the past twenty years, I’ve gained a wealth of experience, including a handful of paid pet sitting jobs, but most of my time has been spent volunteering, caring for family pets, and helping friends with their furry companions. This lifelong devotion has fostered a deep understanding of animal behavior and routines. As a result, I’m a compassionate caregiver who treats every pet like a member of my own family. Hello! My name is Holly, and I provide dedicated, highly flexible pet care tailored to your dog or cat's unique needs. I am currently a stay at home mom, which means my daily schedule is exceptionally open. Your pet won't be left alone for long stretches of the day; instead, they will enjoy a consistent, comforting presence. I pride myself on being incredibly adaptive. Whether your pet thrives on strict routines, needs medication at precise times, or requires a quiet, calm environment, I easily adjust to fit their lifestyle. Because of my unique setup, I have the freedom to slip away easily throughout the day for prompt drop in visits, walks, and feedings. I am detail oriented, highly communicative, and ready to give your pet the stellar care and companionship they deserve. I provide a clean, spacious, and welcoming environment where your pet can truly feel at home. They will love having plenty of room to stretch out indoors, along with access to a generous, fully fenced backyard. Thanks to a secure doggy door, they can freely enjoy the fresh air and playtime whenever they please, giving them the perfect balance of indoor comfort and outdoor fun.
About: Hi, I’m Krystle. I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been something I’m deeply passionate about. While dogs are my favorite, I’ve also raised and cared for cats, chickens, and have experience around horses and other farm animals as well. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a slower, more attentive pace. I also have experience with special needs pets, including three-legged dogs, arthritis, and sensitive digestion. I’m comfortable with all aspects of care, including feeding routines, administering medications, bathing, light grooming, structured exercise, hiking, playtime, and of course plenty of affection and snuggles. I truly believe animals feel the energy you bring, and I strive to create a calm, safe, and supportive environment for every pet in my care. I’m also a Wilderness First Responder, which gives me a strong foundation in handling unexpected situations. I have experience treating minor injuries such as puncture wounds, removing foxtails, and staying aware of environmental hazards like snakes and toxic plants, especially important here in the desert and on trails. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was fostering a terrified, unsocialized Rez puppy who had no prior human connection. With patience, consistency, and care, he transformed into a confident, loving dog and became the shadow of my sweet Opi boy (may he rest in peace). I trained him in foundational commands like sit, stay, lay down, gentle, and recall, and helped him become a well-adjusted trail companion. I’ve also trained my own dogs in both manners and fun tricks like roll over, spin, speak, hug, and shake. I said goodbye to my sweet boy, Opi, in January of this year, and I no longer have dogs of my own. Because of that, I’m able to fully dedicate my time, attention, and space to the dogs I care for. Before this chapter of my life, I served just over 9 years as an Active Duty Marine. That experience shaped me into someone who is highly reliable, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and deeply committed to doing things the right way. I approach every pet with empathy, attentiveness, and genuine care, and I’m always happy to answer any questions to make sure you feel completely comfortable trusting me with your furry family members. Pet care is my full-time focus, so my days are intentionally structured around the needs of the animals in my care. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular outdoor time, enrichment, and a calm, stable environment throughout the day. I prioritize a balanced routine that includes exercise, rest, and individualized care based on each pet’s energy level and personality. Whether your dog thrives on activity or prefers a more relaxed pace, I’m able to adjust my schedule to support what makes them feel most comfortable and at ease. I take a thoughtful and highly individualized approach to pet care, tailoring each stay to your dog’s specific needs and your preferences as an owner. No one knows your pet better than you, and I value that insight, whether it’s routines, medical needs, quirks, favorite toys, or anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always a top priority in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time, and I’m experienced in managing a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and group dynamics. I’m able to provide structure, supervision, and separation when needed to ensure every dog feels safe, respected, and supported. I maintain a calm, stable environment and am very attentive to behavior, body language, and overall well-being. My goal is to create a space where dogs can relax, feel secure, and settle in naturally. My husband and I both genuinely love animals, and your pet will be welcomed into a home that is attentive, respectful, and caring. Your pet will be cared for with genuine attention, respect, and affection every step of the way.
“Andrew was an excellent sitter. He was attentive and communicative and very loving to our two senior pups. They are not without their elderly baggage and he cared for them as we would’ve. He also does great pet photography and was very respectful of our home during his stay. We look forward to using him again in the future!”

“Lindsay couldn’t have been a better dog sitter to our big and little guy! She was super responsive and flexible with our changing schedule. She administered meds for our old dog and was patient and loving with our puppy. The house was immaculate when we got home and the dogs sleepy after a long walk! So glad we found her! 💖”


About: I have always loved dogs and have 2 of my own! As a kid in middle school and high school I was the "neighborhood dog walker" and would help people who didn't have time to walk their dogs every day. Since then I have done check-ins, pet-sit at clients homes, and walk dogs throughout the day for over 5 years. I am a server at a local restaurant at night, which leaves my days wide open. I work 5 nights a week right now (sometimes less) and have plenty of time during the day to take care of your fur-babies! I am off on Tuesday's and Wednesday’s, which would allow me to do night-time check ins as well on those days. I am willing to do whatever my clients are comfortable with. I can walk dogs in your neighborhood, check in on dogs in your home, take dogs to the park, feed dogs, train puppies, and many more services. I have two dogs of my own who are super friendly and love to play! Greg is a rescue chihuahua mix and is 3 years old. Darla is a 4 month old Border Collie!
About: I have two dogs of my own that I love and care for! One of them is 7 and the other is 2. My schedule is super open at the moment so I'm able to really be there for your dog through out the day! My schedule is very open. Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention. Because of that, it’s easy for me to include additional pets into my routine and give them consistent, reliable care throughout the day. I provide attentive care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, I keep a safe, clean environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual schedule to keep them comfortable and stress free. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m very experienced with daily pet care and making sure pets feel safe and loved.
“Mark was fantastic with our fur baby Sven! It was so nice to not have to worry about Sven while on vacation because Mark treated him like he was his own! Sven is very needy and loves cuddles and Mark fully embraced our big floof! I would highly recommend him if you were looking for a sitter! He also kept the house tidy and did some light cleaning upon our return! We will definitely be booking him again in the future!”

About: I have watched dogs for over 16 years my husband and I are very reliable and want to help watch your homes and little loved ones while you are away! We want to serve the midway, heber city and park city areas! We have watched several dogs on many occasions we have been doing it for 7 years together! I work full time at Ameyalli in Midway and my husband is a part time contractor. I will have an hour lunch break where I can take them out and my husband can be with them all day! We will make sure your pet gets plenty of walks and playtime we will keep them on a leash or in your home and yard area!
About: I have a BS in Animal Science and have 5 years direct experience working with animals. I’ve also worked with a 2 month old puppy, volunteered at my local animal shelter, as well as received Volunteer of the Year award during that time. I've walked dogs, changed cats litter, fed rabbits, and made sure all animals in the shelter had fresh food and water, as well as clean spaces. I’ve always had a caring heart for animals, and am looking forward to taking care of you and your beloved pets! Tambien hablo español! My regular full time job is an accountant. M/F I am free in the mornings and evenings, and weekends I am available as well. Having a consistent work schedule for my regular job gives me more flexibility to do what I want in my free time. I adopted a bird a few years ago and have loved taking care of her. She is a cockatiel, and takes certain weekly/monthly maintenance requirements, which shows I'm careful in what I do. Myself being also a fit athletic person makes me a good fit for all size dogs and cats, which I have experience working with at my local animal shelter.

“Caroline was fantastic with our Golden Retriever and Border Collie this weekend! She clearly has a great way with dogs both of ours came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dog loving sitter!””

“Shanika treated my dogs like her own! She was punctual, communicative, sent so many photo and video updates, took great care of our home, and was very trustworthy. We plan on hiring her to house-sit again!”

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
“Nathalia is the best! This is my first experience on Rover and she did not disappoint! She kept my 2 month old puppy entertained which can be tough so i’m so grateful for that! She made sure to update me on how my puppy was doing and did everything I asked perfectly. So nice and would definetly have her house sit again!”

About: Hi, I'm Jaclyn! I'm 26 years old and recently relocated from Maryland to the area. I'm excited to meet new clients and their pets while building my local Rover community. I'm currently in the process of adding reviews from my previous clients, so while my profile is still growing, I'd be happy to provide more information about my experience during our meet-and-greet. As a detail-oriented and dependable pet sitter, I believe in providing exceptional care not only for your pets but also for your home. While house sitting, I'm happy to keep your home tidy and make sure everything is just as you left it. I offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before booking so we can get to know each other, answer any questions, and review your pet's routine. My goal is to ensure both you and your pets feel comfortable and confident before committing to any services. I have experience administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and working with pets that have busy routines or special needs. My services include, in your home: -Overnight house sitting -Drop-in visits -Daily dog walks -Extended "happy visits" at a discounted rate for pets who benefit from extra companionship or a gradual introduction before longer stays -In-home baths and nail trims upon request Experience & Qualifications: -Bachelor's degree in Animal Science from Penn State University -Professional pet sitter with over 10 years of experience -Force-free dog trainer specializing in positive reinforcement and clicker training -Service dog training experience -Animal shelter and kennel experience -Former foster volunteer with 11+ years of animal rescue and shelter experience -Chair Leader of a Small & Exotic Animal Club -Experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and other pets! -Completed animal behavior and canine body language certification courses One area that truly sets me apart is my understanding of animal behavior and body language. I have experience working with nervous, fearful, and reactive dogs/cats, and I always prioritize building trust at their pace. I use low-stress, force-free handling techniques to create positive experiences and help pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to provide personalized care that matches their individual personality and routine. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered, scaled, etc!) family members and providing them with the same love and attention they receive from you. I am currently looking for full-time work, but when I do overnights, I stay there every night after work, and in the past, I have been able to come during my work shift to do potty breaks, etc. I will update this as soon as I hear about employment. I come to the clients' home, and I come over beforehand to see everything. I prefer written instructions whenever it is possible for the owner to leave them.

Ben was absolutely excellent! He took such great care of our dogs and our home—we felt completely at ease the entire time we were away. He’s responsible, communicative, and clearly loves what he does. We would 100% use him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.

The average cost of House Sitting in Francis is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $60 and $69 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Francis 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 Francis 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 Francis 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
