“Cecilia took care of our dog and senior cat for 10 days in our home, including administering medication to the cat (which is a challenge!). She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I felt very comfortable that my pets and home were in good hands. When we returned, the house was clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Lyndi was great! She kept us up to date with photos and reassuring texts throughout our time away. My older dog can be very anxious and shy and he warmed right up to her! We were so please with our experience with Rover and so thankful to have found such a kind, caring, and reliable pet sitter in Lyndi. We will 100% use her again and have actually already booked!”
“Vikki was absolutely amazing! This was the first time we've left our animals with someone other than family. I had a sense of peace when I met Vikki right off the bat. She gave regular updates. I could tell the animals were very happy when we got home. I know we will be using her again. Highly recommend.”
“got her eye medication, had plenty of playtime outside, and was happy and comfortable the whole time. I loved getting daily photos and videos — it gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in great hands. I can’t recommend Rachel enough!”
About: I've owned dogs all my life and always had a role in taking care of them. I have always owned German Shepherds, so I have lots of experience with very large dogs. I have formal obedience training experience and was able to get my first dog her Canine Good Citizen certificate. I have been officially dog sitting for 10 years, and have cared for all types of dogs, including weimeraners, pitbulls, labs, doodles, shepherds, goldens, basset hounds and terriers. I have also been cat sitting since age 8 and have experience with cats of all sizes and ages. I recently graduated from UNC Law School and took the bar exam, and I am looking for some work in the interim while I wait for exam results and search for a legal job. I am living with family in the Wilmington area! I love animals of all kinds. I am most looking forward to taking jobs on rover because I'll get to meet so many pets! As well as feeding and playing with your pets at home, I would love to take them on walks, jogs or maybe car rides to the park (whatever you are comfortable with)! I have lots of experience walking bigger, stronger dogs on a leash so I'd be comfortable doing this with your pets if you'd like!
“Sarah was phenomenal! I really appreciated how communicative she was, she took great care of my house, and she loved/cared for our dogs like they were her own. Would absolutely book again! Thanks Sarah!”
“We reached out to Phoebe to watch our fur babies and our home while we were out of town. Our biggest priority was keeping the dogs in their normal routine and comfortable in their own environment, and Phoebe absolutely delivered on that. From the initial contact through the end of her stay, she was responsive, communicative, and completely trustworthy. We felt confident our dogs and home were in great hands the entire time.”
About: I love animals and have experience with pets from my time working at a vet clinic receptionist to watching cats and dogs for friends and family! Experience with senior animals and giving medications. I believe in understanding a pet's needs and responding with compassion. I currently work full time in person with a flexible schedule. I will chat with you before we commit to pet sitting to ensure my schedule works for your needs (if that's dropping in before or after my shift, over lunch for a walk, etc). I am able to hang out with your pets, drop in, or walk your pets during the day and stay overnight if needed! I currently don’t offer to have pets stay in my home.
“Amanda is amazing! She was so caring with my two dogs, that I believe they miss her already! I never had to worry for a moment about them being lonely. She went above and beyond anything I could ever have expected in the attention that she gave them… and my home. She and her boys gave my pups the love and attention they crave. Even my neighbors commented about how friendly she is and how the dogs enjoyed their walks with her. I highly recommend!”
About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 5 years and have had many different pets throughout my life. I have experience medicating, feeding, walking, playing, cleaning, etc. for all types of dog breeds and most other animals. I am a senior in college who is starting student teaching but am fully available on weekends and evenings during the week. From Tues-Friday I am available from after 1pm. I also have experience in-house pet sitting for family, neighbors, and clients. Just like at my doggy daycare job I put the dog first but also make sure everything stays clean and orderly.
“Amanda took great care of our dogs while we were away for a couple of weeks. She sent photos every couple of days which was appreciated. The house was as we left it.”
“Robb stayed in regular communication With me about my pup! Sent me lots of pictures and re-assured me while I was out of town! He stayed in my home and cleaned before I got home! Not something he had to do but was very sweet of him to do! My sweet girl absolutely loved her time with Robb and I will definitely book with him again!”
“Do not hesitate to book with Madison! She is super communicative and sends regular photos & updates during her stay. I used her for house sitting while I was out of town on business. She kept my mind at ease that my old fur baby was being super well taken care of and I only have Madison to thank!”
“Andy & Erin were absolutely wonderful with our senior dog. They sent plenty of updates and were easily reachable and responsive while we were traveling. They’re delightful people in general, and Darwin was immediately super comfortable with them. We’re already planning to have them back for our next trip.”
About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years and have cared for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, fish, and lizards. I am very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I am also experienced in giving medications and following specific care instructions when needed. My mom is a veterinarian, so I have grown up around animals and learned a lot about proper pet care and paying attention to changes in an animal’s behavior or health. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet I care for like they are my own! I am currently a college student at UNCW, and I have a 3+ hour break between every class, so I have plenty of free time to take pets out for a potty break throughout the day. I am also completely free most weekends, so I have lots of time to spend with pets! I usually care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a place they already know and feel comfortable in. I always make sure to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I’ll also make sure the house is clean, secure, and just the way the owner left it. Most importantly, I want both the pets and their owners to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands.
“Courtney provided outstanding care for our puppies! We had a last minute weekend getaway and she couldn't have been nicer and more professional. We highly recommend her and look forward to booking future appointments. Thank you Courtney!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ogden
Olivia was so sweet with my pooch. She met him for the first time today and he was instantly smitten with her. Normally, he sleeps away from the pet sitter because he's very attached to me and can't wait until I return home, but this time he wanted to be around Olivia and was snoozing by her the whole time she was taking care of him. She is a sweet young lady and too good care of my pooch. I would highly recommend Olivia for your petsitting needs.
Cecilia took care of our dog and senior cat for 10 days in our home, including administering medication to the cat (which is a challenge!). She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I felt very comfortable that my pets and home were in good hands. When we returned, the house was clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend her!
Vikki was absolutely amazing! This was the first time we've left our animals with someone other than family. I had a sense of peace when I met Vikki right off the bat. She gave regular updates. I could tell the animals were very happy when we got home. I know we will be using her again. Highly recommend.
Katie did an excellent job taking care of Lola. I appreciated that she took her out on a few excursions to give her some stimulus outside of walks in the neighborhood. She even cleaned up the house on her last day! I would definitely recommend her for house sitting.
We had a great experience! She took wonderful care of Luna and was very communicative throughout our time away. I really appreciated getting pictures and updates of Luna—it was so nice knowing she was happy and well cared for. We also came home to a clean and tidy house, which was such a nice bonus. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!
It was actually Abby, Andrea’s daughter who took care of our little guy and house sat. Abby did a great job, was very responsive before the scheduled date and while we were on vacation she communicated with me daily to let me know how Mr was doing, and included pictures. The house was clean when we returned and Mr seemed healthy and happy. Abby also watered our outdoor plants while we were gone. I would definitely recommend Abby to anyone needing her services.
Katherine is by far the most kind, compassionate, and loving person, my dog Clyde absolutely fell in love with her from the start. She has taken unbelievable care of my sweet baby boy, and she gave me complete peace knowing that my boy was receiving the best care and love while I have been away for surgery. She send pics of my boy, and I could see how happy he was. I have been truly blessed to have Katherine watch my baby.
Jane was awesome! I know she had to be very patient because we have three dogs that for some reason like to get up at 5:30 am. And we also have a three month old puppy and that requires extra patience. It was great to leave our three pups and our home in trusted care while we were visiting family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ogden is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $67 per night. 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.

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 Ogden 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 Ogden 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 Ogden 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
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.
