“Kaylee is always so wonderful. Our picky little cats love her. She is very responsive and thoughtful. Super trustworthy. We will always ask her to come back and watch the kitties when we go out of town.”
“Lexi was wonderful caring for my sweet kitty! I received lots of pictures and a summary of what they did each visit. She was timely, answered any questions I had, and I was assured my cat was in good hands. I highly recommend her!!”
“Megan is fantastic! We have been using her for a year and a half now and she has always impressed. Our cat absolutely loves her and looks forward to her visits. She is dependable and spends plenty of time with our cat. We always look forward to her pictures and updates from her visit.”
“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!”
“Isela did a great job checking in on my cat! She sent me pictures and updates on how she was doing which was so appreciated and helped me feel at ease. I definitely recommend her!”
“Miss Hettie did a terrific job caring for our two kitty cats! Very happy we were able to book her. She went over and above what was expected. So grateful for her outstanding service. We know who we'll call on next time we go on another trip. Thank you, Hettie!”
“Ariah did a great job ❤️ & followed my instructions to my preference for my lab!, I was worried mainly about him getting his medication but she kept me at ease during my time away! I will definitely use her again 😁. THANK YOU AGAIN!”
“Courtney was great. She took time to come meet our cat ahead of time and took excellent care of him while we were away. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“This was our second time booking with Jessica. She is awesome! Trips away from home are better when you don't have to worry that your pets' needs are being taken care of.”
“Kimberly came to our apartment for drop-in checkups on my two cats for two weeks. She did a great job communicating and making sure the cats and apartment were well taken care of. She also showed that she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure they got everything they needed if necessary. We really appreciated her help and would hire her again for future help!”
“I asked the Duo to do drop-in visits for our cat Cayenne on very short notice! Another fantastic job taking care of our furbaby! Cayenne enjoys the company 😻🐈 Many thanks for the amazing care of Cayenne...we truly appreciate you both!”
About: I’m an active grandma who loves animals and would love to do some pop ins for your pets to feed them, let them out, play with them, take a walk, brush them, pet them…any or all of it! I walk every day and love it when I’ve got a furry friend or two coming along with me! I frequently take care of 2 golden doodles who love to walk together! Thank goodness I workout! 😊I also regularly take care of a golden retriever who loves our long walks too! If your pets are not active or you don’t want walks, I will spend all my time with them giving them love and attention to help ease their time while you’re not there. I am retired! 😄 So I’m available! Other than scheduling around time with my kids and grandkids, I’m available! I’m an early riser, so early morning visits are no problem! I will treat them like they’re my own and tailor my time with them to fit their personality. They like lots of activity? I’ll play with them, indoors and outside. They like to rest and relax? I’ll pet them and brush them (if you’re okay with brushing). They love to go on walks? I’ll take them on some…sometimes just for all the smells their little noses discover or seek out! But always happy to give them a focused exercise walk too! I’ll send you photo and video updates while I’m with them so you can rest at ease knowing they’re having fun, resting, and eating.
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.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since birth and till death. I’ve been around pets my whole life and know the do’s and don’t’s of pet care. I have a part time job but if I accepted your boarding request I would be home the entire time. You will never have to worry about a lack of attention and care from me. My pets get along with others and are crate trained. Your pets would be treated like a member of the family. We could work on training as well.
“Tammy was great with our dogs while we were on a trip. She was punctual, provided photos and updates, and was there if any travel delays happened. We will use Tammy again for future sittings and recommend her to others!”

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!
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!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Layton on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,579 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Layton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
