About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I love animals with everything and I would love to help people out that want to travel or don’t have a lot of time to be home.

Our dogs took to her immediately, visibly excited and comfortable in her presence. She was exceptionally communicative, always checking in and ensuring that she fully understood and addressed all our specific needs regarding their care. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved and secure.”

We had him stay over and watch our dogs for a few days while we went on vacation. my dogs adored him, he followed all directions, communicated well, sent me many photos and left my house just like we left it.

“A very caring sitter in a calm environment, which is what my elderly dog needs. Charlie has quite a few medicines, including three eyedrops. Darlena took it all in stride. I especially appreciated her letting Charlie sleep with her as he's used to cuddling overnight. Already scheduling two more stays for Charlie and have recommended her to a friend.”
“Mark was awesome with our three dogs! He was kind and patient, particularly with our fearful rescue. He had to navigate some very nervous evenings with fireworks going off and did so with so much compassion and care, including administering medication. He managed their complex relationships and personalities without missing a beat and we will be eager to have him back for future housesitting for our pups!”
About: Hi, I'm Sarah! I just graduated from BYU after studying elementary education & psychology, and I'm looking for some extra time with animals as well as to help pay for daily expenses. I love cats in particular, as I grew up with 2 at home and volunteered in the cat room of an animal shelter. But I also love dogs and have been a dog-sitter many times before. I often have treats and toys to bring with me and I always send daily updates on how your pet is doing so you can stay informed. I love to go for walks in the park and if your pet does too, I think we'd be a great match. :) If you'd like to book, send me a message! I'm working at an elementary school right now during the mornings & afternoons but I typically have availability in the evenings M-F from about 3pm-9pm, and more on weekends, depending on the week. I am a responsible and cautious person and I will keep your pet's safety as the #1 priority. I will take into account specific health needs as well as general needs.

In addition, she went above and beyond in taking care of my home, cleaning his rugs and washing linens so that I came home to a tidy house. I highly recommend Samye for your pet sitting needs!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mapleton
Ashtyn was very accommodating. I had to drop my dog indy off at 5:30 am and she was awake to meet him at the door before I even knocked. My dog immediately embraced and warmed up to her. When I picked him up after work he was in a great mood. Happy as can be and was ready for a nap right when he got home. She took wonderful care of my puppy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mapleton on Rover is $40.57 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 751 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mapleton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Mapleton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mapleton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Mapleton 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
