“Ash was great. She was very thorough about getting to know our pets routines and their boundaries which is amazing! Our anxious/reactive dog was happy to cuddle up with her and she did a good job at administering all of our pets medication. She clearly cares about animals a lot and has a very gentle and calm attitude with pets. Our cat that hates and gets aggressive with everyone but us seemed to hit it off with her which is awesome! I would definitely recommend Ash!”

“Tiffany did an amazing job for us. She spent the week with my cat and dog and she sent me updates and photos everyday. She was also quick to respond to my texts. I plan to hire her the next time we leave town if she isn’t already booked. You won’t go wrong with having Tiffany stay in your home with your pets.”

“Haydyn was wonderful with my anxious goldendoodle, Poppy, who's scared of most people and doesn't like being petted. She let Poppy warm up at her own pace and kept me updated throughout the weekend. Poppy soon became comfortable and cuddly with Haydyn, who took her for walks, played, and kept her company. Haydyn respected my home and communicated well with me. I'd love to have her watch Poppy again!”


About: I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life and have experience working with small and large dog breeds, senior dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, cats, cattle, sheep, chickens, and pigs! I can work with animals of all energy levels and will play with the most energetic of pets and chill and hang out with low energy or nervous pets. I spent 4.5 years getting a Bachelores degree in Animal, Dairy, and Veterinary science at USU! I also have experience working at a zoo, a vet clinic, and have taken care of and studied animals through 4H and FFA for 8+ years. I love taking care of animals and making sure they feel as comfortable and as safe as possible! I am available to walk, bathe, play with, feed, watch, and take out your pets! I am currently working part-time leaving me with lots of availability to play with your dogs, take them on walks, and give them plenty of opportunities to play. I am currently available everyday except for Tuesday evenings! When watching your pets in your home I will be sure to ask if they have any regular routines, any specific mannerisms to note, how they like to play, if they have a feeding routine, and any other information I may need to make your pet more comfortable in your absence!
“Thanks so much for fitting us in last weekend! I appreciate all the updates and the love you have for my kiddos! I always feel confident that my house is in good hands when you are here!”

“Callie was a hidden gem! We ran into a situation where both our trusted dog sitters were not available, one of them having a family emergency one week before our trip. By this point there were very few sitters available that met my criteria and little did I know that Callie had just come back onto Rover after a hiatus. Callie came over for a meet and greet and she was very sweet and had a very calm way about her. Callie listened really well, asked a lot of clarifying questions to make sure she didn’t just take any job but that the job she took was right for her as well. She took a lot of pride in ensuring she could meet what was being asked. I really appreciated this. We agreed to move forward finding the fit on both sides a good fit. I sent her my document 😂😬 on caring for our three dogs for 4 nights and she read it in advance! She lived up to every part of what she committed to, she took great care of them and kept me updated along the way. While this was an overnight in our home I would have no question about leaving my dogs with her (if my dogs got along with others), I would know they are in good hands. I literally cannot believe our timing was right in connecting, she is definitely someone we will ask to come back again!”

About: I have done several in-home dog/cat sits all over the country and am able to carefully follow instructions. I really value caring for your best in the way that’s best for them. I am a very active person so love to take dogs on walks. I also love cats and have two of my own!! I left my job a couple months ago and have a lot of free time so I’m available almost anytime to dog sit/walk I am able to care for pets as the owner wishes. I have done several in-home dog/cat sits and follow instructions carefully. You can also count on me to send daily updates if you wish :)
“Anna is delightful and we are so glad to have found her. Our dogs were comfortable with her immediately She is responsible and a great communicator. She left our home in great shape- above and beyond Definitely 5 stars!”

“Michelle is a wonderful sitter! She was very thoughtful and intentional about helping our shy cats warm up to her, and sent great updates and pictures. She also left our home neat and clean. I felt great knowing our cats were in good hands!”

“Leilani did a great job with our old dog and young puppy while we were out of town for the weekend. Very reliable and responsive. We’ll definitely try to use her in the future.”


“Samantha was so great! She was helpful and thoughtful taking care of things in our home based on situations that arose and used great common sense (a shockingly rare quality these days!). Our dog was happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book her again!”

“I just had experience with Katie who stayed at the house and watched the pups! She is great and absolutely no complaints and the pups enjoyed her as well. Definitely recommend!!”

“This was our first time using Jessica, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her, we felt comfortable and knew our dogs were in good hands. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and never made me feel like I was being a worry wart. She understood that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful and was always kind, responsive, and reassuring. Jessica took excellent care of our dogs, especially our French Bulldog, who requires extra attention in the Utah heat. She clearly took her responsibilities seriously, made sure they had plenty of potty and outdoor breaks, cleaned up after them, and paid close attention to their needs. She also took great care of our home, brought in our packages, and left everything just as we had hoped. We truly lucked out finding Jessica. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy Rover sitter.”

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs through walking, in home sitting, while following routines that help our doggos feel safe. What sets me apart is my reliability, clear communication, and the care I take to understand each dog's individual needs, personality, and comfort level rather than treating visits as rushed check-ins. I intentionally structure my daily and weekly routine around pet care, allowing flexibility for walks, check-ins, and in home sitting while ensuring each dog receives reliable, unrushed attention. When caring for pets in a clients home, I treat both the pet and the space with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I take time to learn each dog's routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while away. Safety is always my top priority. I double check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I stay attentive during walks and potty breaks to avoid stressful or unsafe situations. I keep a calm, consistent energy so pets feel at ease, especially those who experience anxiety when their owners are away. I'm mindful of your home environment as well, I keep things clean, follow house rules closely, and leave your space just as I found it (or better). I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and can relax knowing they're in good hands. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, cared for, and happy - and for you to feel confident trusting me in your home.
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.
About: I provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where every dog gets individual attention. With experience training dogs, I understand behavior and focus on keeping dogs calm, well-behaved, and comfortable through consistent routines, exercise, and positive reinforcement. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs and make sure owners stay updated with photos and messages, so you always know your pet is in good hands. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like my own—prioritizing safety, trust, and a stress-free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the dogs in my care to make sure they get the structure, engagement, and care they need. I prioritize safety, structure, and a calm environment in my home. With experience training dogs, I’m very aware of behavior and body language, which helps me prevent issues before they start. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest so dogs feel comfortable and secure. I always supervise interactions, keep a clean and pet-safe space, and follow each dog’s specific needs and instructions. Whether in my home or a client’s, I focus on building trust, reducing stress, and making sure every dog feels safe, cared for, and at ease.
“Christina did a fantastic job watching Hank and Milo. She followed my instructions to a tee and I came back to a spotless house and very happy pups. I would definitely hire her again.”

Michelle was an incredible sitter and we really enjoyed our vacation knowing our puppy was in good hands. She sent regular pictures and updates and took great care of our house while we were gone. There was great communication and she really cared for Tigger. We will definitely ask her to sit for us again. Thank you Michelle!

Kathryn watched our dog, staying overnight with him for over a week. She sent pictures and gave frequent T updates. He seemed to really enjoy his time with her. She went above and beyond, giving him extra special treats and taking him on walks (we usually don’t have dog care givers do walks since he can be leash/dog reactive). We came home to a tidy space and a happy dog. We’d love to use her again for our next trip out of town.

Amanda was fantastic! Honest, reliable, and wonderful with our two cats — including our kitten, who no doubt gave her a run for her money. She was the perfect house guest, staying with us for a full 20 days while we traveled across the country for a wedding in Vermont and a birthday celebration in Florida. On top of house-sitting and looking after our 20+ plants, she sent adorable cat photos throughout the day and followed all of my (admittedly very detailed) instructions to the letter. Would 100% book her again!

Melisa has been fabulous! I really recommend her to watch your pet. Really nice to talk to, sends the cutest pictures and videos My Winston really loved her and snuggled with her every minute he got a chance to, Winston was one of her own and treated him like her own as well! I would recommend 100 stars for her! Thank you so much Melisa
Sharon was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my dog, Roger, and stayed at my home while I was away. She kept me updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She followed all of my instructions carefully, and I could tell Roger was happy and well cared for. I’m so grateful I found such an amazing dog sitter. I highly recommend Sharon and would definitely book with her again!

Samantha was amazing with my cats.. I have 2 cats, one is super loving and the other is very stand off-ish with everybody he meets… until now. Samantha formed a bond that nobody else has ever been able to form with him.. and I’m super appreciative that she took the time to get to know his personality and grow from there. Samantha did absolutely everything I asked her to do and even offered to do things that I hadn’t thought of. I would highly recommend her to care for your pups and / or feline babies! I will rebook with her in the near future!!!

Kate did an amazing job watching our dogs while we were away! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly cared for them like they were her own. We came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pups and had total peace of mind the entire time thanks to her updates and photos. She went above and beyond, and we could tell our dogs absolutely loved her. We would 100% book with Kate again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Sienna was amazing! She came over to meet us beforehand and met all of our expectations while we were gone. She was great at communicating and very detail oriented. She noticed our small dog wasn’t eating all of her meals and checked in with us to make sure we weren’t concerned. Our house was exactly as we left it when we got home, very clean, and our dogs were in great spirits. I feel confident they were well cared for and I highly recommend sienna!

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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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 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!
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.
