About: I grew up with my mom finding strays to care for and finding them homes. I've always wanted my own. I've had my dog for 4 years and adopted my kitten a few months ago! I am mostly free on weekdays and most weekends so any day works for me to give your pets my undivided attention and my best care. I will be able to drop in and hang out with your pets as long, or as many times as needed to make them and yourself more comfortable!
About: Hello! I have worked as a professional dog trainer for over a year. I have worked with all ages and even dogs with special needs. I can care/train for your dog any time of the week. My schedule is very flexible and I can work weekends as well! Thank you I can come to your house to care for your pets. Take them potty and on walks. If you would like some training while you are gone I can do that as well. We can talk specifics if you need training.
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!
About: I have taken care of a variety of doggies for several years! I am flexible and available last minute! I will treat your dog like our own! I am flexible! Home most days of the week and weekends! Just let me know what works best for you and we can figured out a plan! I have a fenced back yard with lots of room for your doggie to run and play around! I also have a fur baby that loves to play with others, as well!
“She is a wonderful pet sitter. It is our first time leaving our cats alone for a week and we were nervous cause one of ours is too shy and he became close with her and the notes and pictures made us feel so much better that are being taken care of. I will highly recommend her and i will definitely choose her next time i want a pet sitter. The dedication and care she has towards what she does and how she does her job far exceeds what our thoughts were. We can tell it’s not just a “job” for her, what she did for us helped put all of our fears and doubts at ease. Wonderful communication, pictures on her visits and feedback even as simple as keeping a light on for our cats. She went the distance and then some. Words don’t do her justice but we pray anyone reading this review will take it to heart, we are truly blessed to have had the pleasure of working with her.”
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.
“Brianna and her sister Jenn were great! I immediately felt I could trust them the minute I met them. They were always great about checking in and out on visits, provided plenty of photos showing how comfortable my cats were with them there, followed instructions well, and provided helpful feedback. Our two cats are very special to us so it was comforting to know they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would rebook in the future when needed. Thanks ladies!”
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.
“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”
“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 am a dedicated animal lover with a natural ability to connect well with pets. I currently have a 2 pound chihuahua and have experience fostering, whom I thoroughly enjoyed caring for. I am able to care for dogs in the evening for walks when fur parents may not be available to do so. In addition to fostering, I also connect with cats. A friend's skittish cat feels comfortable enough to move about freely and relax in my presence, which reflects my calm and patient approach to animal care. I am currently looking for a part time gigs in the evenings Monday-Friday starting at 5:30pm. In the weekends I am only able to drop in and check on the fur friend and/or go on a walk with me. If there is a consistent fur friend that needs constant care, i would be opened to that. Before going to someone's home, I would ask what are is okay and not. What the fur friend needs to have a good time. Go on walks, on a small hike. Take to a dog park to socialize. Any specific details that I must know.
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! 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.
About: Hello, I've had cats, and some kittens, almost my entire life! I love them and understand their cues. I enjoy interacting with them and grooming as well. I am a stay at home mom with only one child not in school so I'm pretty flexible most days. It will be easy for me to find 30 minutes most days to check in on your furry family member(s)! I know how to brush cats, clip their nails, change the litter, feed, water, and play with them. I have my own car, so I am reliable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and a cat for a very long time. I’ve cared for large dogs to 3 month old kittens. I’ve walked, feed, played and bathed them, even cats. I would love to care for any animal after 3pm and weekends. I’m also in the Navy Reserves so some weekends I won’t be available. I currently have a 5 year old cat with me and the area I live in is animal friendly. I’m right next to a dog park with plenty of walking space. If I were at your home I’d try and take care of it as best I can and clean up, of course. I will 100% respect your property.
“Christine was amazing! She visited our place daily to take great care of our young kitten while we were away. She clearly did a wonderful job and kept us updated, even ensuring our house stayed nice and tidy while we were away. We truly appreciated Christine keeping our kitten happy and our minds at ease while travelling. Thank you Christine!”

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!!
Super attentive sitter that our pups adored! Put a lot of energy into keeping them active, loved, and brushed (no small feat for 2 Akitas in shed!). Was very professional and responsive, and quick to notice + report minor health and behavioral concerns. Will absolutely book again 😊
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.

- 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.
