About: Welcome 🐶 My name is Anna and my husbands name is Austin! We have been doing Rover for a while now and we love our Rover dogs so much!! Thanks for viewing our Rover profile, I have listed a few things to know and expect if you choose us.😊 What you can expect if you book with us: - A meet and greet in our backyard or at the nearby park if you wish before the drop off date so you can meet us 😊 - Walks! We have a great neighborhood with lots of parks with walking trails. No matter the time of year I try to do a daily walk. - Experienced pet owners. We both grew up with animals since we were kids. We have even helped one of our previous dogs deliver a litter of puppies and had them for 10 weeks! Our days revolve around our son, our own pets and the pets we watch. They are walked, fed and taken care of exactly how their owners ask us to.🐶 I have a fenced yard, kennels if needed and plenty of space in the home for your pets to find a comfy spot. If you have cats we have cat trees, scratch posts and plenty of spaces for your kitty to nap away. I never take on more than 3 bookings a day. If you have questions about other pets that will be here with yours I’m happy to tell you about them. 😊
“Liz was a lifesaver! She was available last minute to watch both of our dogs while we were out of town. She put our minds at ease and kept great communication throughout the weekend. We will be using her services again! Highly recommend!!”
About: Hi, I'm Crystal! I've been an animal caretaker my whole life — mainly dogs, but growing up we had everything: dogs, cats, rats, snakes, a pig, a goat, turkeys, chickens, ducks, horses, turtles, and fish. I started really doing the work of caring for them around age 9, so I have about 15 years of hands-on experience. As an adult I've had a dog, a few cats, and some chickens. Currently I have Cocoa (my dog), my cats Tigre, Princess Cecelia, and Blue, and 2 chickens. Because I've handled so many different species over the years, I'm comfortable with all kinds of animals and personalities: shy rescues, rowdy puppies, picky cats, you name it. What sets me apart is all that variety — most sitters know dogs and cats, but I've cared for just about everything, so very little surprises me. Your pet will be in experienced, confident hands. I work from home running my own business, so I'm home most of the day and my schedule is flexible. That means lots of company, playtime, and potty breaks for boarding guests, and I can usually fit walks and drop-ins around your timing. Just message me and we'll make it work! Every owner and pet is a little different, so I start with a calm, tidy environment and let the pet set the pace. Once they get comfortable, there's more play and energy, but if they're shy, I'll never push it or do anything that scares them or makes them uneasy. I'll keep you updated on how your pet is doing throughout the stay or walk, so you never have to worry.
“Matthew did a good job with my cattle dog and Aussie. They can be a bit much for some people but he worked with them well. I hired him for 3 visits a day for 4 days. He kept in good communication.”
About: I have had the pleasure of growing up with multiple dog, cats, and other animals growing up and know that animals are more than pets, they’re family! I am a reliable person who will give the best care and attention to your pet while they are away from home. I currently have a wonderful lab/mix named Badger, who is very loving and gets along well with all dogs and cats. He enjoys playing and running around with other dogs, so he is going to enjoy this experience as much as I will. I work full time so I’m available for boarding on weekends since that is when I spend most my time at home. However, I don’t mind boarding during the week if your pet is okay with waiting 4 hours alone. I have a fully fenced 2,500 sqft lawn for your dog to roam and play. His would-be roommate (my dog) is an 8-year-old lab mix, who’s very well-mannered, neutered, and up-to-date on all his vaccinations. I do no not crate unless the owner requests for pups to be crated.
About: I’ve been raised around all types of dogs, from St. Bernards, Rottweilers, and Mastiffs to Chihuahuas and Tea-Cup Yorkies. I’ve done multiple hours of dog training courses. I take animal care very seriously. I’m able to do lead/leash training, light bathing, and walks. I have a part-time job that I’m able to request time off for in order to sit! I’m a very quiet and solitary person who likes animals more than people. I have no kids, and am not going to school. I specialize in full time care. Animals are ALWAYS welcome on the furniture. Engagement and involvement are a must and whether it’s walks, light training, or just plain cuteness? Treats and positive reinforcement aplenty. I never double book without cohesion! While on walks, I stay away from any risks. I have the confidence to say “Not right now, no!” Dietary restrictions are always followed absolutely.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! Last year, I even completed a service project focused on educating others about the importance of pet enrichment and proper care. I’ll treat your furry friend like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way! I am currently a student at Weber state studying elementary education so I have my student teaching from 8am-11am. I am often available outside of these times. Your pet is safe with me, pets will stay leashed at all times unless we are in a safely locked environment. I also will practice recall often.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! I’ve always loved animals and I trained my dog! I will spend as much time as I can with your pet! I’m currently in school so I have plenty of time in the late afternoons, and weekends! I will be able to make time for any dog! I have a fenced yard with plenty of room, I also have one dog that will keep your dog company if needed. I also have a crate and bed if you dog needs anything!
About: Hello! I’m Hannah, and I can’t wait to give your pet a safe, fun, and comfortable "home away from home." I’ve been a dog owner my whole life. I grew up with dogs and got a dog of my own as soon as I was able to after college. As an avid long-distance runner and outdoor enthusiast, I am the perfect match for high-energy pups who love to stay moving. Whether your dog thrives on long walks or backyard fetching, they will get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Of course, I also appreciate the art of winding down—there will always be plenty of couch cuddles and belly rubs after a fun day! I’m currently a stay at home dog mom and can easily accommodate your pet's specific feeding, potty, and exercise schedules to keep their day as stress-free as possible. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into a warm, active, and loving environment! I live in a comfortable home with a fully fenced-in backyard, giving dogs a secure space to play, sniff, and stretch their legs safely. I have two dogs, Willow and Aspen who love to play and make new friends. So your pet will get double the companionship and attention during their stay!
About: I’ve taken care of puppies, for myself and for my family. I have cared for neighbors dogs in their own homes as well. I have been relied on to care for others dogs by walking them, feeding them, general training, and play time. I work part time and I am a full time college student. I have mornings free and some afternoons. I will be changing my schedule soon so I will have more availability. I live in a cabin with a Forrest surrounding the house. I always go outside with my dog and enjoy long walks. I would love to walk any pups you have or do in home babysitting.
About: I have a big spacious fenced in yard. My home is calm and welcoming which will help your dogs feel right at home! I have cared for dogs of families and friend. I’m available for boarding Friday through Monday all day which gives me more than enough time to take your puppies on walks and give them the care and attention they need. I have a fenced in yard and a sweet little 2 year old that is so gentle and will give your furry babies all the snuggles.
“Emma was great with the dogs, despite one of our dog's tendency to continually bark at new people. She communicated well with us while we were away! It was much easier to relax knowing they were well taken care of!”
About: I am an Army Veteran who learned the power of a bond between animals and humans after being discharged from the military and needing a companion of my own. I am currently a dog trainer as well as pursuing a bachelor's degree in animal behavior and health! I am a dog trainer that does board and train sessions as well as private in home lessons, while also pursuing my degree in animal behavior and health. I do train dogs full time, but please let me know what works with your schedule and I will do my best to accommodate! I have a big fenced yard and two australian shepherds that are very friendly. I can easily crate animals if needed or separate them by rooms if your dog does not like other dogs.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid—whether it was walking neighborhood dogs, pet sitting for friends and family, or volunteering with rescues. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own pets every day, so adding a few more furry friends to the mix fits right in! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or extended stays, I make sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pets comfortable, safe, and on their usual routine. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication if needed, and of course—plenty of love and attention. I keep things clean and tidy, and I’m happy to send regular updates so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands.
“Hannah is exactly the type caretaker you want for your cat while you are away. She is very loving, kind hearted and thoughtful which puts your pet at ease without stress. It's an immediate attachment between the two. This helped me to not worry as well. I give her my highest recommendation and know that I would readily call upon her again.”
About: I am new to formally boarding animals. My son had a cat that passed away (at his dad's house) and he really wants to have pets. Since we don't have a yard to have a pet full time, we are doing Rover to have fun and still let him enjoy animals. We make sure to take pets for walks morning and night and if I am working from home, I can do a lunch one as well. I do not have a fenced yard, but we will take them just down the street to a couple parks. Please provide crates. If we are doing a drop in at your home and you have a yard, we will let your pet out for a break while we are there.
“Tiffany was fantastic—attentive, reliable, and clearly cared a lot about my cat’s well-being. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: I’ve pet sit both untrained and trained dogs. I tend to dog sit any dog breed. I am educated in many dog foods due to my very picky dog back home! I’ve learned how to make many alterations to dog food due to that. I lived together with my close family and she has a dog and cat. I always help and step in while they need someone to watch their animals. I love making animals happy by playing with them, feeding them well, and all the walks they can do! When preparing food I always wash my hands after and before. When being taken on walks I make sure to clean up. I love having a sanitized environment for pets and humans.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Layton
Desiree is a wonderful caregiver! She was great at communicating and giving updates for my two boys. My sweet Shih Tzu is 16 years old and needs extra care. She snuggled with him and made him feel safe and loved. She learned to throw a frisbee for my adrenaline junky border collie. She is a sweetheart and I will definitely use her again.
Sarah was great! Had no issues, and she was able to deal with my excitable dog Echo and the other pets just fine. My super shy kitty Oliver even came out while she was there, which was very surprising since he is so skittish. We came back to a clean house and litterboxes. Love the Rover updates and photos, it was nice to see how the pets were doing and know that they're being taken care of.
Mary is amazing, I had plans and had to last-minute arrange a visit for my dog. I was pretty unresponsive during his visit without meaning to be, but Mary was checking in and proactive about asking anything she'd need to take good care of him. So appreciative!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Layton is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $31 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 3,397 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Layton. 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.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
