About: In my 5 years of professional grooming and owning cats and dogs my whole life, I am very good at reading cats and dogs body language! From dog grooming I have also learned the best ways for special handling for puppies and senior pets! I have two cats of my own currently and I absolutely love working with dogs, it is my passion! I am currently working part time and will have plenty of time to help you and your pets, I also have a flexible work schedule but will most often be available Sunday-Wednesday! I am very familiar with pet crates and carriers and have had a lot of practice in getting pets into their kennels safely from putting dogs in kennels at the dog grooming salon I work at, with my years of experience in grooming I have learned a lot of skills in handling dogs even if they may be difficult or uncooperative! I always prioritize dogs and cats safety and comfort and will never push them past what is acceptable for them to ensure any experiences they have with me are positive ones!
“Thank you Natalie for taking such good care of my 3 cats. You always responded quickly to my questions during the visits and it made me feel comforted that u cared and would get it done. We will definitely use you again!!!”
About: I have done some rescue work, fostering, pet sitting for long and short periods of time, and have done 80hrs of intern work at a vet clinic that gave me the opportunity to take a hands on vet science class. I am comfortable with any age and with administration of medication if needed. I am a real estate agent, as well as Air Guard part-time. I am able to work from anywhere as long as I have access to wifi. There are only 2 days a month where I will be working my military job with the exception of potential deployments (that does not happen often). I am available 90% of the time. I have experience with training puppies. I raised a litter of 9 puppies back in 2017, I have fostered many dogs, and I have a furbaby of my own. My mother has a farm that has 4 dogs (including mine), and 3 cats. One of the cats she has was one I rescued back in 2021. When I was living in Japan due to the military, I was constantly pet sitting, sometimes for weeks or months, in my own home (I was there for 2.5 years).
“No questions about it, Sachi has done multiples drop in visits and everytime she is perfect. Sachi is the right choice for all your dog service needs. I will continue to request for Sachi services. She is highly recommended.”
“Spencer did a terrific job making sure my cat was fed and taken care of while I was away. He went above and beyond by giving her some extra food when my flight got delayed a day, so she would survive a day alone. Super Responsive and sent pics every day. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay attention to routines and special needs, whether that means extra walks, medication, or quiet cuddle time. I’m also experienced with anxious pets and use calm, consistent energy to help them feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active, so walking dogs or checking in for playtime is something I look forward to every day. My schedule is flexible, which means I can adjust visits and walks around each pet’s needs, whether it’s a consistent morning walk, afternoon playtime, or evening check-in. I always make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care, no matter how busy the week is. When I care for pets, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions before each visit. In a client’s home, I keep everything clean, secure, and consistent with how the pet is used to living, which means sticking to their feeding schedule, regular walks, and familiar play routines. I always double-check doors, leashes, and gates, and I never leave pets unattended outside. I believe in building trust through patience, respect, and gentle communication, so your pet feels comfortable and happy the whole time you’re away.
“Madeleine was so loving to our kitty, and she was good at communicating updates/questions/concerns when they came up. I do prefer tighter scheduling communication/appointments, but she was great for the things that mattered.”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cat since I was 12 years old. I’ve helped with dogs from puppies to seniors and every age in between! I have plenty of free time to care for your pets during the day and night, whenever you need. My love for pets doesn’t have an end time! I’ll be happy to care for your pets in your home where they feel safe and comfortable, along with taking them on walks per your requested schedule!
About: I worked at pet boarding/grooming facility for 10 years where I was able to care for dogs of all sizes, ages and demeanors! I also have experience in caring for cats, birds, bunnies and many more! I am currently working part time in film production, so my schedule is very flexible! When a booking is confirmed, your pet(s) will be my number one priority and not overlap with any other work. I will care for your pet however you need me to in your home. I may need to leave periodically for short periods of time during the day.
About: I know how stressful it can be to entrust your baby to someone else. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, low-stress environment where your pup gets plenty of one-on-one attention, affection, and care. Because I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone and will be part of my daily routine. I intentionally keep my bookings limited because I’d rather provide exceptional care to a few dogs than juggle a full house. Every dog has different needs, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at home. I’ve been a dog mom for over six years and have experience training dogs, so I’m comfortable reinforcing good habits, maintaining routines, and adapting to different personalities and energy levels. I hope your dog leaves with a wagging tail, new happy memories, and excitement to come back for their next vacation. Dogs are already at the center of my daily routine, so caring for yours fits right in. My own pup keeps me active with outdoor time/play, and working from home gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention and stick to your dog’s normal routine. I keep my bookings small so every dog gets the care and attention they deserve. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, notice changes in behavior quickly, and make sure each pet feels secure and cared for throughout their stay. I keep my home clean, organized, and pet-friendly, with a calm environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, boundaries, and any special needs, so their stay feels as familiar as possible. I also prioritize safe interactions between pets and always respect each animal’s comfort level. My own dog is friendly and social, but I can provide separate spaces when needed to ensure every pet feels safe and stress-free. You can expect regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing while they’re away.
About: Pet friendly and love all kinds of animals. We are a home that loves any animal and our kids love having dogs around and show them so much love. Our kids are very well behaved around animals and get along with dogs very well. Someone is always home to watch and care for our furry friends. Love and care is always going to be available for your loved pets. Have a fenced in patio if needed and allow owners to bring their pets crates if they would like. Safety and security is at the top of my priorities to make sure your pet is cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of puppies since I was 16 years old, I bathed them and trained them with easy commands such as sitting, lying down and giving the paw. I also just get my pet CPR & first aid certification. Hi this is me Justine, I know that I look so young but I’m able to take care of your pet in whatever time and place that you need. I took care of pets before so I know how important it is to give your pet to another person but you can trust in me I’ll take care of your pet as if it were mine. I am a compassionate and dependable petsitter who provides personalized attention and affection to furry friends in the comfort of their own home. I’m also a student so this will be much helpful for me to can afford my studies. For me it is much better to be able to take care of your pet from the comfort of your home. In this way, your pet feels much safer in a place he knows and I have an easier time gaining his trust.
“Jenny is my favorite sitter! We have used her several times over the years and couldn’t be happier. She’s prompt on messages, loves the animals and sends the best pictures. Highly recommend!”
About: We’re a dog-loving duo who bring the best of both worlds to your pup’s care! I’m an athlete who loves taking dogs along for runs and outdoor adventures, while my wife is all about laid-back snuggles and cozy companionship. Whether your dog craves long walks and high-energy play or prefers belly rubs and naps on the couch (or both!), we’ve got them covered. With us, your furry friend will get plenty of exercise, affection, and personalized care. We treat every dog like family and can’t wait to meet yours! My wife currently is not working, so she spends most of the day with dogs we take care of. She might leave for the occasional errand, for 1-2 hours. We usually try to arrange for one of us to be home with dogs we are taking care of, to limit alone time throughout their stay with us. We care for every dog like they’re our own—with love, attention, and a balance of activity and relaxation. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise with daily walks, runs, and playtime, while my wife offers a calm, cozy atmosphere full of snuggles and companionship. Although we don’t have a fenced yard, we live in a quiet townhouse community with lots of safe walking space. There are three parks within walking distance and several more just a short drive away. We also love taking dogs to the nearby Jordan River Trail for more scenic and enriching walks. Your pup will get the perfect mix of outdoor adventure and indoor comfort while staying with us.
“Lianna did a great job taking care of our kitty and was willing to make changes and extend the booking when we had a change of plans. She also helped out by watering our garden and keeping my plants from dying in the summer heat. Thanks, Lianna!”
“Noah and Jaida did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, who they never met because my cats are feral rescues, lol. But everything was in great shape when I got home and the cats were happy. I will definitely use them for my next trip!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
Casey was fantastic with my fearful foster Mastiff. He took his time to allow my pup to become comfortable, and within no time, my foster was seeking him out for attention. I would highly recommend Casey…his patience and compassion are much appreciated! It’s a relief to not have to be worried when I need to leave my dogs.

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 Riverton 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!

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 .
