“Sadie was incredible with our cats! We booked very last minute before the Thanksgiving holiday, but she still made time in her busy schedule to come and do a meet and greet the day before our trip, which I really appreciated. She was very responsive, and took great care of our cats while we were away. Our more reserved/standoffish cat even took to her pretty quickly! (: I appreciated the pictures and comments that she left about how the cats were doing, and loved that she spent time playing with them. This was my first time using Rover, and I would definitely hire Sadie again!”
About: I am a veterinary student at Utah State looking for a side job! I have over 6 years of experience in the veterinary field working as a veterinary technician. I have over 4 years experience in pet sitting. Comfortable working with pets of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I will be a full time veterinary student in the fall. I will be available nightly and during the day for drop ins. Available on the weekends. I am a trained vet tech so I am willing to work with pets of any breed or age. Even pets that need extra attention. Trained and have experience with pets that require medication administration if needed.
“Debbie is the greatest! Our new dog who is scared of everything warmed right up to her! She sent us lots of pictures and made sure our girls were well taken care of.”
“Our experience with Eva was outstanding. She cared for our Yorkie, Copper, over four days, providing excellent care and attention to detail. Eva's communication was superb, with regular photo updates and texts that kept us fully informed throughout. She followed Copper's feeding and outdoor routines meticulously, which helped build trust between them. Within a couple of days, Copper felt at ease enough to sit with Eva on the couch, showcasing the bond they formed. Given Copper's unique personality, which demands trust on his terms, Eva's ability to win him over speaks volumes about her capabilities. We strongly recommend Eva for her services and anticipate booking her again when we go on vacation! Thank you, Eva!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 years old and have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I’m especially comfortable with dogs of all ages, including senior pets who require extra attention and medical care. I have experience administering medications, including injections for diabetic dogs, and I’ve also cared for birds. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely love bonding with animals. I’m active and enjoy being outdoors, so your pets will get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. At the same time, I’m very attentive to their individual needs—whether that’s high energy activities or gentle, calm care for older pets. I’m also extremely responsible and respectful of your home. I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors for years to care for both their pets and their houses, and I always make sure to leave everything even better than I found it. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine! Right now, since it’s summer, I have lots of free time to dedicate to your pets. I rehearse for a show for only a few hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of time to provide consistent care, attention, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can also accommodate overnight stays whenever needed. My schedule is very flexible outside of rehearsals, so I’m happy to adjust to meet your pet’s routine and specific needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, and any special instructions you provide—to keep them happy and stress-free. I also ensure medications are given safely and on schedule when needed. I treat your home with care, keeping it clean, secure, and organized while you’re away. I provide plenty of playtime, walks, and attention, so pets feel happy, engaged, and cared for while you’re gone. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pet and making sure they feel loved and well cared for!
About: I owned and cared for a variety of animals since childhood. Dogs are my fave but I like them all. I have an associate degree in animal science so I am comfortable with any medical care that might be required for their care as well. I have worked with obedience training and service dogs, though I never received credentials. I am a mom of 2 with a few part time jobs so my schedule is busy but flexible. Some weeks more availability than others. I can do walks, play time, snuggle time, whatever is needed to keep them happy and comfortable. I am able to administer meds etc. as needed.
About: “Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Everyone who knows me knows how much I love them and how well I care for my own. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family — with patience, kindness, and genuine attention to what makes them feel safe and happy.” “Pet care fits easily into my day because it’s something I’m already doing! I start and end my day with animals — walks, feeding, playtime, and quiet time. I enjoy being around pets and giving them attention throughout the day, so adding a few more paws just makes it better.”I'm currently unemployed and so I have a lot of free time to spend with the thing I love most. I have a fence yard. When I feed my dogs their food I put extra additives to help promote their health and so they are not eating the same old thing everyday. I'm always giving fresh water to them. I just try to think if I was an animal what would I like. I want their short life to be good.
About: I've taken care of friends' and coworkers' dogs and rabbit, in addition to house sitting. I own a cat myself named Josh, and I've had him for about 14 years. I have volunteered periodically at the Cache Humane Society during my time at USU. I currently work part-time, but I'm free before 9am and after 4pm during the weekdays and with enough notice, the weekends are flexible! I will follow any instructions you have and adjust if needed. Make sure that exit points are closed and attentive of any behavior changes to share.
“Ellie was great with our two cats while we were out of town. We were so appreciative that she was willing to check in on them during the holidays. Our cats were in good hands, and we're grateful for Ellie's awesome help!”
About: Leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be a stressful experience. My goal is to keep you both anxiety-free during your time apart, while providing a cozy and safe environment for your pup. I grew up with dogs all my life and have one adorable girl in my home currently. Since childhood I have also found joy in taking care of friends’ and relatives’ dogs. Pets have always been a genuine part of my family, and I’ll be sure treat your fur kids like my own while they are with me. In the summertime I can be home all day and night to keep your pet company. The occasional errand might take me away from your long-term boarding pup unless we’ve prearranged that he/she needs constant care. Dogs are free to roam my house and get lots cuddles and treats throughout the day. I would prefer that new boarding clients be either crate trained or fully housebroken/past the chewing phase of puppyhood. This will help prevent accidents and keep your dog safe at night when unsupervised! I have a very comfy 30” kennel available or you’re welcome to bring your own.
About: I have been walking dogs since I was ten and house/dog sitting for three years. I have always loved dogs and the energy they bring to a room. I aim to ensure each dog I come into contact with feels the same love and joy they give me! I am a full-time student at USU. I have classes Monday through Friday, all ending at 3:20 p.m. I am available at all times after that, on weekdays and anytime on weekends! To provide a safe and trusting environment, I keep an eye on all pets and do counts if there are multiple pets as often as possible. Safety is my priority, and building a trusting relationship is also essential!
About: I have been living with a multitude of animals all my life and hope to work with them for the rest of my life as I work to becoming a Veterinarian. I want to gain more experience with more people’s experiences pets and enjoy their company. I am currently a full time student at USU working on my Veterinary Science major, but there are always times when I miss my pets at home and want to take a break from studying so taking care of other people’s pets would bring me great joy and activity. I am living in an apartment on campus but have free time to give lots of attention and love to pets. I would love to give the dogs walks and play time to explore the beautiful campus and town and check up on them for their needs.

About: I grew up with two dogs, parrots, a horse, and fish. From a young age I started a pet care business and worked with all types of animals. I expanded into house and barn sitting in my high school years. I am currently a student at USU and am looking forward to providing quality care in the Logan area. I am a student at Utah State and have a diverse schedule with various openings throughout the week that provide significant flexibility. Available for overnights and weekends. Generally, when dog or cat sitting I will ensure care instructions are followed precisely. I provide quality care including feeding walking, and spending time with each animal. I am more than happy to adjust my services to client preferences.
About: I can make home made treats and medicine for dogs. I can perform CPR on a dog and a cat. If necessary, i know how to restain both dogs and cats. I was a veterinary technician in training so i know the basics of handling, new born puppies and kittens, older dogs and cats, or female dogs in heat. If you have a pregnant female, i know how to help in complicated births. If it's a rescued dog, I know how to be gentle and calm with them. If you recently had a dog in surgery, I will help in any way possible to make sure it doesn't feel too much pain.

About: I am a lover of all animals! I have taken care of animals in a variety of settings since I was a teenager. From my own pet rabbit and cat to neighbors dogs, I have worked with a variety of different animals including walking, sitting, and feeding them.

“Highly recommend Rowan to take care of your pets. Rowan helped us pet sit our playful 1 year old Torti Cat. All the pictures that we got she looked very happy. When we got back home she was in great spirits. Will def ask Rowan next time we need some help.”

Absolutely fantastic people. I needed a last minute dogs sitter and Bree and Calvin responded within an hour of me leaving my request. Our poor dog got sick during the visit and made a mess in his kennel and they were so good to clean not only the kennel but the carpet also. 10/10
We couldn't have asked for better pet sitters! Cody and Amanda took such great care of our two dogs and our crested gecko while we were away. Both dogs get quite anxious when we are gone; it was such a relief knowing they were getting lots of love and were well cared for. We loved getting updates and pictures with each drop in visit. We'd definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and dependable pet sitters!

I can’t thank Brenna enough for her help. I had a last-minute family emergency and she stepped up immediately to care for my dog and two cats. She was incredibly reliable and professional throughout the entire stay. It’s a huge relief to find someone you can trust with multiple pets on such short notice. Everything went smoothly, and I will definitely be booking her again!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Providence 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!
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.

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
