“Summer communicated well of when she would be there, what the dogs did, and how they were. I was nervous as my dogs are never left alone and she did great with keeping me informed during her check ins.”
“Megan kept open communication about every aspect of our puppies. The meet and greet went so well, we knew we’d feel comfortable leaving our babies with her! I can’t wait to book with her again.”
“Brooke is a very professional and caring cat sitter, and my cat seemed to love her! Took care of everything I asked, and gave my cat attention, so that’s all I could ask for!”
About: Animals have been the heartbeat of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a ranch, I learned early on that caring for animals is a 24/7 commitment that requires patience, hard work, and a sharp eye for detail. From chickens and bunnies to cats and dogs—and even more unique pets like ferrets and birds—I was raised with the understanding that every animal has its own personality and specific needs. My parents gave me my first dog when I was 1, she was best friend till she passed away when I was 17 years old. I learned at a very young age how to care for dogs and all the responsibilities that go along with them. She was by my side, even when she passed. I have owned several more through my adult life and currently have 2 senior pups that have been with us since Itty bitty babies. As an animal mom myself, I know exactly how hard it is to head out on vacation. Leaving your fur babies behind and worrying about the level of care they are receiving can be incredibly stressful. Because I understand that bond, I promise that any pet in my care will receive the exact same level of love, attention, and high-standard care that I expect for my own. My goal is to give you total peace of mind; I’m here to make sure your pet’s routine is followed perfectly and their day is a little brighter while you’re away. My husband owns his own business and I am currently taking classes online at home on my own time to get my bachelors degree in accounting so rover fits my schedule perfectly and lets me do something I love. How perfect is that! Care in Your Home (Drop-ins & House Sitting) "When I care for your pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their sense of security and routine. I understand that a disruption in their environment can be stressful, so I focus on the details that matter: I stick strictly to your feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. Whether it’s a high-energy game of fetch or quiet snuggles for a senior pet, I’m there to provide genuine companionship, not just a quick visit. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) "I treat every pet in my home like a member of my own family. My space is a 'pawsitive' environment where your fur baby can feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. Pets are never left unattended and have constant access to fresh water, cozy resting spots, a fenced in back yard, and plenty of affection. Can also crate if needed. Because I’m an 'animal mom,' I know that some pets need extra reassurance. I provide a calm, organized space where they can settle in quickly. Drawing on my years of experience growing up on a ranch, I am highly observant of animal behavior and health. I keep a close eye on their appetite, energy levels, and overall well being. You’ll receive regular photos and updates so you can see exactly how much fun your pet is having, letting you enjoy your time away worry-free."

About: I’ve never once lived without a dog in my life, so being around them has always felt natural to me 🐾 I’ve been completely obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who just want company and cuddles. I’m also a starting dog groomer, so I’m learning more every day about dog care, behavior, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always treat your dog like they’re my own: loved, spoiled, and in good hands. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, company while you’re away, or extra patience and care, I’m happy to help! My schedule is pretty flexible! I currently work Tuesday through Friday, but I usually get off around 4 PM, so I’m available for evening walks, check-ins, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention afterward 🐾 I’m also free most weekends and can be available for longer visits or multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Whether your pet just needs someone to stop by and feed them, take them outside, go on a walk, or keep them company while you’re away, I’d love to help! I’d be a great fit because I can offer a really safe, comfortable, and flexible environment for your dog. I have a fully fenced backyard, so they’ll have space to run around and play securely if they’re staying here. I also have other friendly dogs, which can be great for social pups who love company and playtime. If your dog needs structure or a calmer setup, I’m also able to crate them when needed so they can relax and feel secure. On top of that, I’m comfortable with different routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or just hanging out and giving them attention.
“Kaitlynn was amazing! I had a last minute medical appointment down in SLC, and needed a dog sitter. Kaitlynn was super flexible with times. My dogs absolutely adored her. Ginny is more independent than most dogs, and she got Ginny cuddles!! I will definitely book her the next time I need a dog sitter!”
About: I’am a responsible, dependable dog lover!! I treat every pet as if they were my own ❤️ I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I just moved to rexburg to start cosmetology school at Paul Mitchell! I’m in school from 8:30-4:30 Monday to Friday but other than that I’m fully available whenever you need me! (Especially on weekends!!) During the week I would only be able to feed, and walk the dog early mornings before school and late afternoons after school. However on weekends I’m fully available and I can let them out as often as you would like!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Iona
Anna was wonderful! She was communicative, reliable, and incredibly conscientious, and we felt completely at ease knowing our cats were in her care. She made sure they were well taken care of—not just fed and looked after, but given plenty of attention and affection, too. It was clear that she paid attention to each cat and how they were doing, which meant a lot to us. She sent us photos and updates throughout our trip, and we came home to three happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely trust Anna with them again and highly recommend her!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Iona is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $50 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 196 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Iona. 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 .
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.

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 .
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.
