“Makenna and Clint could great care of Homer! They took time to play with him and make sure he felt welcome in their home, and had a large fenced in back yard for him to run and play in. We will use them again for sure!”
“Very, very happy dogs who got a lot of play out! When we had any questions or change in scheduling, it was such an easy and quick response that everything felt low stress. When one of our dogs was acting mopey, we got a quick text with photos asking if we were concerned that I truly felt like our pups best interests were being cared for”
“They are the best dog sitters in Logan. I had a long trip planned and felt completely at ease leaving my dog with them. They sent pictures every day of my dog going on adventures with them and playing with his toys. They also kept him mentally stimulated by working on his training. They truly love Bruce and treat him like the spoiled only dog that he is.”
“Emily made my 1st Rover experience a GREAT ONE. She provided care and attention to my senior dog that put me to ease while I traveled. Emily is super responsive and gave me updates on how my dog was doing each day. The cherry on top were the pictures I was sent everyday of my dog playing, relaxing, and having fun. I highly recommend Emily for any dog owner!”
“Nate was wonderful, my pup had a great and safe time the couple of days I was away and I got regular updates of her frolicking around. I would absolutely have her stay with him again in the future!”
“Very helpful with my questions before booking. When our flight was delayed coming home she accommodated picking them up late. Dogs were happy and looked tired from the playtime when we picked them up. Her house was perfect for our outdoor dogs with fenced yard and room to play.”
“Ashleen was awesome! She took such great care of our dog. She gave updates and made sure he was well taken care of while he was at her house. Will use her again when needing dog care.”
“Sara and her family were so great with our dog. She got lots of attention and she was a happy dog when we picked her up. Sara sent pictures and let us know how things were going. I would highly recommend her!”
“Jessica offered fantastic service as sitter. From my initial contact she was quick with responding to notes, offered a meet and greet prior to providing boarding services and made my own dog feel right at home during her stay. Her own dog is as nice as can be and was a great host as well. I can highly recommend Jessica with confidence!”
About: I've been a dog owner for the past 18 years and truly understand that pets are part of the family. My home is full of love, with five kids who enjoy playing with and giving attention to dogs, so your pup will have plenty of companionship, although I will be the only caregiver to your pet. We also have a friendly Sheepadoodle who loves making new dog friends and gets along well with other pups. I'll treat your dog like one of my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I work from home and am available all day and night to make sure that your pet is comfortable and happy during their stay with us. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I stick as closely as possible to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and any medications they may need. My home has a friendly Sheepadoodle who enjoys having canine companions, and my fully fenced yard provides a safe space for supervised play and exercise. Dogs are never left outside unattended, and they receive plenty of love, attention, and snuggles throughout the day. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.
“Becky did a great job taking care of our older dog. She stayed at our home and left it pristine! Becky also provided regular updates to make sure we knew our pup was doing well. We were so thankful to know Winston was in the care of a real dog lover.”
“Kimberly was great! Our dog was so we'll taken care of, I've never seen her this tired from a weekend of non stop fun. Kimberly was even nice enough to give our dog a bath as a nice surprise for us when we picked her up. Definitely would recommend, 10/10!”
“Heidi was so great with our dog.I checked my cameras often and she was so dependable showed up when she said she was. You can tell she really had a love for dogs because was always playing with her. I will definitely be using Heidi the next time I go out of town.”

Jared is AMAZING! 🤩 He goes above and beyond to make sure our boys are well taken care of. Sometimes our boys have been on medication and Jared always makes sure they receive their medication on time. We have rebooked with him multiple times and we will definitely continue to do so! THANKS SO MUCH JARED!
If you want someone who truly understands dogs, this is your guy. I have a very timid, and reactive Pyrenees-poodle and he does not do well with strangers. Eric gave Winston a calm safe space to relax, and adapt to. He was very communicative while I was gone. My questions and concerns were answered promptly. Winston was able to get lots of exercise daily. As well as free time to roam. When I picked him up, he was very calm, and happy. I will absolutely being using Eric again in the future.

94% of sitters in River Heights can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their River Heights home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your River Heights.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your River Heights sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in UT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
