“Traylor & Jason were so so good with our Tank while we were out of town! Their patience, knowledge, and attention to his extra need for space due to recent changes was absolutely the best. They moved at his pace and ensured his confidence and comfort. Lots of updates and photos helped us too while we were away. We will be calling on them again for sure. Thank y’all SO much for such good care of him!”
About: I grew up with two rescue dogs who I took care of. They were brother and sister. I always loved taking care of them. The brother was a bit on the slow side but he was really friendly. His sister lived to 18, and as needy as she was I loved taking care of her. It required a gentle hand that I was happy to provide. I love animals in general, and would be glad to help take care of anyone’s pets. I work part-time as a mover. Usually 2-3 times a week for 2-4 hours. The only other commitments I have during the week is church on Sunday mornings. I am available most days and nights. Since I am a college student I do not have any pets right now, so this job gives me the opportunity to spend some time with furry friends who make me very happy.
“Gabby and Tyger were so good to my fur babies while I was gone. Everything was in order when I arrived home and my girls were super excited. Gabby texted me updates throughout the weekend to keep me in the loop since it was her first time sitting for me. Which honestly, put me at ease. Thank you ladies❤️”
“Ashley took great care of our 2 dogs. She send updates with pictures and answered any questions I had. The house looked just like I left it. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“Molly watched our house and three pets (2 dogs and 1 cat) while we were away and as always, she was amazing! One of our dogs has anxiety and she's great with her. It is so comforting for me to know she is there and I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Candace has watched my dogs twice now. They love her. She is very communicative and gives me updates morning and night. If something is wrong she lets us know right away! So glad we found her. 100% recommend.”
About: I grew up with dogs since I was about 4! I have a big family with lots of aunts and uncles that rely on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone on trips. I love getting to know pets with all different personalities. I work 8-5 five days a week with rotating days. I go straight back to your home after work and am able to spend the rest of the night with your pets. I have a lunch in the middle of the work day I can check on the pets depending on distance. I am easy to reach outside of sleeping hours and can give any updates needed. I keep a close eye on your pets and keep in touch if anything seems out of the ordinary with them to take the best action.
“Xion was amazing! They went above and beyond in home sitting our dog over our Thanksgiving vacation. From near-daily text and photo updates, to even shoveling snow from our driveway and sidewalk, they really took care of everything and more. So grateful and would absolutely book again!”
“Aubrey was absolutely amazing with our animals, she sent regular updates with photos and let us know how everything was going. She left our home in perfect condition, definitely will be booking again!”
“They took wonderful care of our animals and home while we were gone. Excellent communication, they left the house looking cleaner than when we left. Highly recommend. I would definitely rebook.”
“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’ve taken care of dogs and many times for many years even cats and reptiles, it is truly my hobby and I will even allow them in my bed. Wherever they are comfortable is where I’ll have them be I want to make them feel at home as possible, and have a great enriching experience. I stay home, so I am open it is basically my job to care for pets 24/7-365 even if they are not my own! I can provide physical exercise in mental stimulation for them, so they are not bored and sad just, waiting for their owners I care for my pets in my home by taking them out regularly on leash or chain if they are comfortable. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I can make sure they get much play.
“Ilina was absolutely amazing with our pups! She stayed for 4 days, house sat and cared for them. She kept us up to date on them and how they were doing, sent pictures and just gave them the love they needed while we were gone. They get nervous when we aren’t home with them and she did a great job making them feel at ease. She went above and beyond, washing her sheets and bedding and kept the house super clean. Will definitely use her again! Highly recommend her to care for your fur babies and house sit.”
“Jess was exceptional. My dog had an unexpected issue during the time Jess was watching her and Jess remained communicative and calm all while navigating my dog’s illness with great competence. I would absolutely recommend her to others and use her services again!”
About: I grew up with animals always in our house! My family had dogs (from border collies to dachshunds), cats, rats, and fish. I have also frequently done pet sitting for my extended family members. These family member have asked me to care for dogs (from great danes to boston terriers), kittens, lizards, and guinea pigs. I love to spend time with animals, whether it is by hanging out on the couch or going on walks. I especially enjoying spending time with older pets, I enjoy supporting them when they start to slow down and always make sure they’re comfortable. I am currently working part time at a school for adults with disabilities, some of the students I also provide care for at their homes when needed. I am looking for some opportunities to spend time with animals, as I miss having them around since I can’t keep one in my apartment. When caring for pets, I am always willing to come to their home and support them in anyway I can. I enjoy taking them on walks if needed, or even just hanging out at the home so they aren’t alone. I love any details given and only appreciate when people want the best care for their pets. I want to be someone who clients feel will take excellent care of their pets.

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!!
There just arn't enough thank you's for the peace of mind that Christine gives us while we travel! Always up to date with the latest shenanigans the girls are doing and we know that they are safe and well cared for. They even get extra cuddles! Not to mention the house always is spotless when we get home and even the plants are cared for. Can't thank you enough Christine!!! We appreciate you SO much!
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!
Caroline jumped in and saved the day for me as I was out of state, had a dog sitter cancel due to family stuff and was in a bind without service. She was able to stay with sawyer and without great communication on my end due to being camping in North Carolina. Would definitely recommend!
Grace treated my babies like her own the entire time we were out of town! She took Athena for several walks a day and took her hiking multiple times! I never had to worry about how they were being treated and it really took a weight off my shoulders and allowed us to enjoy our first trip with our new baby!

FAQs for House Sitting - Ogden
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ogden on Rover is $40.79 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,557 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ogden. 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 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 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.
