“Amber provided amazing care for our cat while we were out of town for a few days! We were so relieved our cat warmed up to her right away as he is very picky about who he lets in his space. He has his own way of letting us know if he wants pets or not and she was very good at reading his cues and body language. She is very communicative and sent us a lot of pictures and videos while we were gone. Definitely would recommend!”
About: Pets are members of our family, and our family deserves to be taken care of. I absolutely adore animals, I have pets of my own, and they are my whole world. I have an adorable Maltese named Fizzgig and a Black Cat named Thackery Binx. Prior to this dog, I had a Maltese named Tinkerbell. I just want to be able to care for other animals as I have cared for mine. We all have responsibilities that keep us away from home most days, and we want to be sure our little fur babies are well-cared for in our absence. I can promise you that I will provide to their every need, and maybe even spoil them a little bit! I’m a published author, and I spend way too much time locked up inside writing. I need to get out and walk and have a break from the soul-sucking experience of sitting in front of the screen all day. I hate sitting idle. I have too much energy. Dogs have too much energy. It's a perfect match! I need something else to keep me moving in a day, and playing with precious animals seems like the perfect job! I can crate or leash dogs to ensure they will not run away, and if your cat is exclusively a house cat, I am well accustomed to keeping those quick felines from darting outdoors.
“Kaylee was an AWESOME pet visitor/sitter! She really took time met with us before our trip to get to know us and our pet. Super communication throughout our trip. She sent great updates with a variety of sweet photos. We loved seeing our happy pet while we were away. We noticed she cleaned up even more than we asked - making sure our pet was totally satisfied (and we were too!)! THANK you Kaylee!”
“Brooke had great communication during drop in visits for our kitty! She was also patient with our shy guy and allowed him time to come out and investigate on his own. We knew our kitty was in great hands while we were out of town!”
“Tiana did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty! She kept us updated on how he was doing which was a load off of our shoulders while we were away. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”
About: Hi! My name is Jayne! I am a mom of 6 and grandma of 11. I have also been a dog owner for many years. I truly feel that they are part of the family and should be treated with love and respect. I have worked as a volunteer at the animal shelter as well as a professional dog walker. As I've worked with dogs, I've learned that each one is different. They each have their own personality and their needs can vary. I feel that dog owners know their dog best and I will listen and take advice on how to best care for their pet. I'm excited to start this adventure! I am retired and spend my spare time playing with grandkids! I have lots of extra time to assist families with pet care. I am available most days at any time! I am reliable and trustworthy. I am very aware of pet's needs and will create an environment where your pet will feel safe and loved.
“Anna was amazing! She was very communicative and sent daily pictures of my pets. I appreciated her flexibility and understanding of my kitties unique needs. She will be my go-to sitter in the future.”
About: I’ve always been passionate about dogs! I work as a home-based dog groomer and I'm a Fear-Free Certified professional I strive to make every grooming session comfortable and stress-free. I have over 5 years of experience handling and working with dogs. I'm offering stress-free dog walking and pet sitting as I'm currently working from home, and I can't think of a better way to spend my free time! I love spending my free time training, walking, and hiking with my own dogs. Growing up, my family always had dogs—mostly miniature schnauzers—so I have a soft spot for scruffy little terriers. My love for animals goes beyond dogs I also own geckos, mice, and a couple small fish aquariums. I work from home as a dog groomer and my clients are appointment based so this makes it very convenient for my furry clients to be fit into my schedule easily! For walking and sitting I prefer to come to you and your pup so there is less stress from a change in routine for them. My car is set up to hold up to 3 to 4 dog kennels so I can safely transport dogs from your home to any destination. If the need arises, I have gated off rooms in my home making it easy to move dogs from place to place. I have a fully fenced in backyard to ensure the safety of all pets in my care in my home.
About: I am returning to Rover! I moved to UT in late 2024. I have since gotten married, started work, and established my life here, so it’s time to start pet sitting again! I have taken care of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was ten years old. For me, I really just love hanging out with animals and I am so glad that using Rover allows me to do just that! I will spend time playing, feeding, walking, and chilling with your pet! I am very comfortable with medication administration, special needs pets, and have a genuiene ability to connect with all dogs and cats. I really don't do this for money, I do this because I know how stressful it is to leave your pets with someone, and I want to make sure people get the care that I would want my own pets to receive! I work in Farmington from 8 AM- 5:00 PM Monday- Friday. During the week, it would be best for me to be with a dog who can be alone for at least 4 hours so I can go to work, let them out/ hang out during my lunch break, and then go back to work. Once I am off work I will not go anywhere. Also, my weekends are completely free, but I am happy to do stays during the week as long as you’re comfortable with my work schedule/ my going to work during the day. I Would love to hang out with your pet and provide them top notch care! I make sure to pay special attention to each pet I take care of, making sure they feel loved and safe when they are around me. I like to make sure that they get their exercise in as well! Not all pets need the same things. With my dogs, one just needs someone to sit with but the other needs someone to run around with. All dogs are unique so its important to me that I provide unique care based on their needs. Whether that is extra walks, extra pets, extra cuddles, or playing music during the day!
“Caitie is great! She did an excellent job taking care of our cats. One of our cats is very skittish and hides the whole time anyone new is around. She was out of hiding and playing with Caitie by day two, which is completely unheard of. Caitie kept our place very clean and was excellent at communicating with us. 10/10 highly recommend”
About: I have had and loved dogs since I was learning how to walk with my best friend Buster! I’m familiar with all things dog and cat care related, from puppy/kitten to senior. No additional skills to highlight, just common sense, critical thinking, and a whole lot of love for animals. I’m available all days of the week to care for your animals! I’m currently looking for an additional part-time job on top of Rover, but for the time being my availability is open! I am able to care for your pets however you would like! I'm available for house sitting, drop bys, and walks. I am just short of 5ft tall, so I may have trouble walking bigger dogs, but we can discuss if that comes up!
About: Hi, I’m Summer! I just moved to Utah from Florida and have lived with and cared for dogs my whole life. I have experience with small and large breeds, as well as puppies and senior dogs. In college, I looked after my roommate’s labradoodle solo for about three months, handling walks, feedings, and plenty of playtime and cuddles. Now that I’m getting to know Utah and spending more time outdoors, I’d love some furry company along the way! I truly love dogs and treat every one like family. Whether your pup loves adventures, playtime, or cozy naps, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. My schedule is really flexible right now since I’m not currently working, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I’m usually around during the week for walks or drop-ins. I always treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I keep a close eye on safety during walks, double-check doors and gates, and follow your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and happy. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and pictures so you always know your dog is safe and cared for.
About: I’m so excited to care for your dog ❤️ My name is Paige. I’m a mom of two and our family loves caring for dogs. We have a fully fenced back yard and go on walks multiple times a day. We love being outside. I’ve had 3 dogs of varying ages growing up and into my adult life. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs as well as dogs that have medical needs. Let me know if there is anything else you’d like to know! I’m happy to chat with you and get to know your dog. Thank you 😊 I work from home so I am available for care and boarding every day of the week. Let me know if you have any questions. I’m happy to answer. I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. My husband has too so we will both be hands on to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need.
About: I’ve had dogs for my whole life. Ever since I was little I was taking care of them, feeding them, taking them on walks, and playing with them. I love spending time with dogs and playing around with them. At one point, I had 4 dogs in my house growing up, so I can handle if you have a few pets. Ive had older dogs and puppies, so I’m experienced in taking care of both. Right now, I have open availability. I’m available to drop by when needed or stay as long as I need to ensure your pets are properly taken care of. The apartment I’m living at is currently pet free, but growing up I had a fenced in back yard for our pets to run around in. We also would put them in their crate when we needed to go somewhere. I also have dog sat for people who did not have a fence, so when it came time for the dogs to go outside, I would put them on a leash.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was about 6. I frequently walk, bathe, feed, and play with my own dogs. I love dogs and I would love to be given the chance to take care of yours. I’m currently attending college two days a week and work part time giving me plenty of availability to care for your pet through the week. I am very gentle and loving with all pets. I can easily care for all pets without being paranoid of getting bitten. I still have yet to have a pet dislike me.
About: I have experience working on a ranch and having animals in my home. I am a big believer that animals deserve to be taken care of and shown love. Whatever your pets needs, I'm happy to accommodate so they get the care they deserve! I am looking for a side gig and my schedule is extremely flexible. My goal is to accommodate your timing needs as much as possible. Willing to negotiate different hours. Since your pet will be staying at your home, you know you can trust their environment. I plan to take pictures every time I interact with your pet to send to you (if you'd like of course) so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being loved.
About: Hi friend! My names Emmie and I have been taking care of dogs since I was around 10 years old. I currently have 4 dogs and love them so much! One of my pups gave birth to 5 sweet little furballs, and I helped potty train, walk them, and play with them. I adore animals, especially dogs and think that they should be treated with love. I’m so excited to take care of your furry friends! I’m currently working a part-time job, which means that I will have plenty of time to walk your pups! My schedule is open and flexible, so I’ll definitely be able to take care of your friends for you while you’re gone, whether that be walking, or visiting your home! I have a car so I’m able to travel to your home to visit your furry friend! I will make sure to keep your house clean and tidy and your pups happy
“Anna was such a great help while we were gone on Vacation! Not only was she extremely patient and flexible, but also prompt, professional, and an excellent communicator. She played with and fed our babies as well as giving them special medicine. We looked forward to her check in pictures every day. She also took care of our plants! Thank you so much, Anna! 💕”

Jeff was absolutely amazing! I contacted him very last minute, the day before leaving town, and he still made time to come over the same day for a meet and greet. From the very first minute, he was incredibly kind, patient, and natural with my three dogs. They loved him right away, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Jeff is reliable, caring, and clearly great with animals. I truly appreciated his help and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lexi was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Charlie while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She kept us updated with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Charlie was happy and well cared for. She even went above and beyond by coming over early to make sure Charlie was safely inside before our lawn service arrived and brought in all of our packages every day. That level of thoughtfulness and dedication really meant a lot to us. Every great review you’ve read about Lexi is absolutely true. She’s dependable, caring, and genuinely loves the pets she watches. We will definitely be using her every time we travel in the future. Thank you, Lexi, for taking such wonderful care of our spoiled little girl!
Shayla is the best!!! She is so nice and she takes such good care of our two mini golden doodles. We have her come twice a day. She is there on time, she walks them around the neighborhood to get exercise. She cleans the dogs eyes and put drops in them. She chops up their food for them. She gives them a lot of love and scratches. I love when she sends us pictures. I will always have her as their babysitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Layton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Layton 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Layton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Layton. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
