“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.”
“Lexi did a drop in 2x per day while we were on vacation. She kept us updated with photos and comments and n Riley’s behavior. She was always prompt and we would cal her again when we go out of town.”
“Megan did a wonderful job watching my cat Shadow. She spent 30 minutes there everyday while I was out of town and made efforts to connect and engage with Shadow. It made me feel at ease to know Megan would be checking in on Shadow. Highly recommend Megan!”
“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!”
“Kaylee was so good with our two pups, and kept us updated. With the ease scheduling and fantastic care she gave, I will definitely rebook with Kaylee! I have never seen them look so relaxed and happy after a trip. So so much better than boarding. Thanks again, Kaylee!”
“Isela was awesome! It was great to not worry about our kitties while away and we looked forward to getting pictures and a detailed report on how they're doing. We will definitely be using her again.”
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.
“Courtney helped us out when we had a family emergency and had to leave town. She was quick to respond and I was grateful someone was able to check on our beloved kitties. Thanks Courtney!”
“Susan and Madeline are absolutely amazing! They helped us out at the very last minute and we are so very appreciative! They are great with the dogs who love them! 🥰”
“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!”
“Booked again, and as always, Miko was well taken care of. I appreciate the updates and pictures while I’m away, great pictures btw, brings peace of mind. Thank you for going above and beyond and taking time to supervise Miko outside, which is his favorite. He loves going outside several times a day, and it meant a lot that they were so patient and attentive with him. Thank you again for always following instructions carefully and taking such thoughtful care of Miko. Very grateful!”
“Jessica came by for a 30 minute drop-in. It was a much needed visit to break up my pup's long day of being home alone while I worked and schooled. My pup had an accident in the house upon Jessica's arrival (from all her excitement!) which she graciously cleaned up. She took the pup out for a walk & potty break, wiped her paws upon return and before letting her loose in the house, filled her water bowl, and played with her for the remaining time. She made sure to send me a recap along with a few adorable pictures. All instructions were followed, no issues, and my Goldendoodle was happy ? I definitely recommend Jessica for pet care whether it's a drop-in, pet sitting, or walking.”
“Tammy saved the day! We were on a cruise and our doggie sitter canceled last minute. She jumped in and helped out including giving meds and eyedrops. She took such good care of our fur baby!”
“Kaylee was great with my 3 dogs. She was on time, communicated well for every visit, and I felt I could trust her with my fur babies. Will definitely book with her again if needed!”
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’ve had dogs from the age of 8 to present day. Currently I have 3 Blue Heelers mixes, 1 miniature DoxyDoodle, 4 cats & 11 Chickens. I feel like I’ve come across every situation with my Pets but I’ve also learned that they can keep you on your toes. I do currently work full time from home but have a very flexible schedule & primarily work East Coast hours so I’m available throughout the day for drop in visits & walks. I am available in the afternoons & on weekends for longer visits, including runs with your dog if that is what they enjoy. I have 4 dogs, 4 cats & a dozen chickens so my animals are very comfortable around others. My 3 medium sized dogs are very high energy breeds & I am a runner so I do offer taking them on longer walks/runs if that is what your dog enjoys.
“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!!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Sarah and Dareld! This was my first time leaving my dog, and I was a bit nervous, but they completely put my mind at ease. From the moment I booked, they were so communicative and professional. I got so many great updates throughout the stay, with photos and videos that made me feel like I was right there with my dog. It was clear that my pup was in loving hands, and it made all the difference knowing how well she was being cared for. I’ll absolutely be booking again in the future. Highly recommend Sarah and Dareld to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pet and goes above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable while they are in their care. Thank you so much for making this experience such a positive one!”

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 August 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 August 2026, there are 3,522 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.
