“Aubrey and Ray did a fantastic job taking care of Louie, they were in great communication with us and sent videos and pictures to keep us in the loop! We missed our pup but knew he was in good hands with these two.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for our fur babies. Great communication and thoughtfulness and was very respectful of our home. Kerry was very patient with our very cautious English mastiff. Will definitely be asking Kerry to come again.”
“Jessica took care of my Cocker Spaniel in my home over the weekend. She's incredibly loving, intuitive and made sure she understood exactly how to give him his medicine. She sent frequent pictures and updates, which made my entire trip much better knowing my sweet pup was well taken care of. I look forward to having her in my home again and giving my pup loving attention! She's exactly what you hope to find when looking for a sitter. Thank you big, Jessica!”
“Candace did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. She sent multiple updates and pictures throughout the day, walked our dogs, and gave our senior dog his numerous medications. Our flight home was canceled last minute and we had to extend our trip by a day and Candace was very flexible and accommodating and watched our dogs for the extra time.”
“Ashley is absolutely amazing! She's very communicative, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the animals. She also took out my trash and did my dishes and a few other chores, which was a wonderful surprise. Most of all, the dogs were clearly happy and relaxed when I got home. I'll definitely be going with Ashley again!”
“I had to leave my two Siamese boys home for the holidays. I was very nervous. I work from home and they aren't home alone much, if at all! Having true flame-point Siamese characteristics, they require constant attention and play. They are known to be one of the most social of cat breeds and are often called the royalty of cats for good reason! Lucy stayed over the whole week and did more than give them her undivided attention! She followed their feeding schedule and medicine administration. They had just been neutered a week before and she checked that they were still healing properly. She checked in with me and responded promptly when I texted her to see how things were going. She let me know how much time she was with them and when she was away. I could tell when I got home they had still gotten the amount of playtime and cuddles they need. She met with me beforehand and went over last minute details as I requested before I left. I was in a rush the day I left and Lucy watered my plants for me. My dishwasher was broken at the time and couldn't run water in one side of my sink. She made sure to not use them and hand washed any dishes. I left my only apartment key with her and she didn't forget to put it back for my return. Everything was tidy and perfectly taken care of. I can tell Lucy enjoys animals and watching them. It's not a "job" for her, but a joy she holds in her everyday life. I am excited to have found a permanent sitter and my kitties are happy they'll have a familiar friend when I'm gone! I'm so grateful that she was able to stay over and spend her Christmas watching them. Thanks for becoming my cat-sitter Lucy!”
About: Having a hugely flexible schedule and an affection for pets has made me the go-to sitter for a large group of friends and acquaintances for the past several years, with intermittent experience before that. I’m a freelance filmmaker and photographer and my schedule is highly flexible with lots of time I can happily devote to spending with your dog/s and/or cat/s. I don’t have any special certifications but I’ve watched dogs of varying ages and breeds, with simple and complicated needs. Happy to consider unique circumstances, but my main experience is in walking and spending time with dogs and cats.
“Bailey was the sweetest thing and we were very grateful she could accommodate us through the weekend. She was very responsive every time we reached out via text and we appreciate her meeting us in advance to introduce the pups to her.”
About: I have had animals all my life ranging from dogs and cats to lizards, bunnies, and snakes. I have also worked in the petcare industry professionally as well for 7 years doing grooming, training, and vet tech work. Im available for long term care or even short daily visits whichever your schedule requires. I live on a 1/3 acre property with a large back yard as well as private space in my house for pets that prefer to be alone. I can provide home visits/walks, or I can do at home boarding. I have a large backyard that is fully privacy fenced, as well as a private space in my house that we use just for animals
“Brittany has taken care of our 2 dogs now twice and each time she is very thorough on how their day was and sends pictures. I know when we have Brittany watching our 2 fur babies that they are well taken care of”
“Dez was amazing with our special pup. Or dog has separation anxiety and this was our first time leaving her. Dez took excellent care of her and did everything she could to ensure our fur baby was cared for and loved. Would highly recommend her.”
“We have never left our pets for this long before so we were a bit nervous beforehand. Everything went great! We returned home to happy, well cared for pets. Thank you!!!!!”
About: One of my first jobs as a kid was caring for my friends’ dogs. I took on responsibilities such as walking the dogs, feeding them, and keeping them active. I genuinely enjoyed the experience, and it sparked a love for working with animals. Now, I’m excited to turn that early passion into a reliable side job, providing attentive, responsible care that pet owners can trust. I’m currently available full-time, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate your needs as often as required. If you’re looking for someone who can stay longer or provide extended care, I’m a great fit. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I’m very detail-oriented and take the time to double-check that everything is secure: fences, doors, and leashes, before heading outside, so you can feel completely at ease.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ogden
Jessica is wonderful! This was my first time having someone stay with Gatsby, and she made the whole experience so easy and reassuring. She sent great updates and the sweetest pictures throughout the stay, and it was such a relief to see Gatsby completely comfortable, relaxed, and just being himself with her. She followed his routine and medication instructions carefully, communicated really well, and took great care of both Gatsby and my home. I came home to a happy little guy! I’m so glad we found Jessica and am already looking forward to having her stay with Gatsby again.
Jess did a great and thorough job with Murphy. We just moved to Ogden and finding a new sitter can always be nerve-racking. But I am so glad we put our trust in Jess. She was professional, loving and took such a good job of our house, leaving it probably better than we left it. Murphy was a happy boy when we got home and was well taken care off. Thanks again Jess! You will hear from me again! :)
Sophie was a wonderful sitter to our 2 old pups! She made sure they were fed and taken out. She had to give medicine to one of our dogs with each meal and she was great at making sure it was all done how they are used to it. She cleaned up after herself and anytime I had a question she responded promptly. I would absolutely hire Sophie again as a dog sitter!!
We contracted with Kerry to housesit with our 14.5 year old senior gal. Our last vacation was about eight years ago and we were very anxious about finding someone who would care for her with as much support as she’s used to receiving. Upon doing a meet & greet with Kerry, our fears were put to rest. After introducing himself, he immediately sat on the ground with our girl & waited patiently for her to approach him. He asked questions about her personality, habits, schedule, meals, etc while letting her get to know him. Between the meet & greet and our scheduled housesitting, they had several “walking dates” and soon grew familiar with each other. While we were out of town, Kerry sent photos and updates about walks, morning & evening routines, mealtimes, and he asked questions when necessary to ensure her needs and care were fully met. For anything that was a little new or unfamiliar, he took his time with her, giving her space & kindness to become comfortable with the activity. He also treated our home with respect. We’re so happy to have found Kerry! We would definitely recommend him for care, walks, housesitting for your furry family members. We’ll for sure work with him again.
Dawn did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was away for military duty. There was a slight hiccup and she immediately contacted me and we figured out the best fix for what was going on! She gave great updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone and I am looking forward to using Dawn again to watch my girl! 10/10, if I could give her more than 5 stars I would!

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
