“Hanna and Mica get along famously! Mica is very comfortable with her, and Hanna sends the cutest photos ever day :-). We will use her services whenever we have to leave our baby at home for travel.”

“We are so glad we found Makenna! She was quick to communicate, sent photos, and let us know when our pups got into some things they shouldn't have in the house. Our travel plans ended up being extended last minute and Makenna was willing to work with us on our additional needs. Truly a 5 star experience and we're thankful for her help! - Wrigley, Frank, and Nugget”

“London took care of our 2 cats for almost 3 weeks while we were on vacation. London did everything as requested and then some -- like watering our 20+ plants!!! We especially appreciated the daily pictures of our fur babies, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. London's gentle nature even helped our shy cat to feel trusting enough to come out of hiding to greet her.”

“Myia has done a fantastic job. She leaves detailed notes on each visit and sends pictures of my dogs. My dogs like having her visit and Myia does a great job at meeting the needs of my dogs.”

“Alexis was an amazing cat sitter! She made sure our kitty got her medication and spent lots of time with her, which we really appreciated. She was very communicative and never hesitated to reach out with any questions or concerns. She truly went above and beyond, and we’d definitely hire her again!”

“Callie was amazing! I had booked last minute travel and needed someone to watch Gracie. I haven’t left Gracie for nearly 3 years and was very nervous to do so. Callie was very quick to respond, kept me updated with lots of pics, and took such great care of Gracie. She’s an absolute angel.”

About: I provide calm, home-based dog boarding and daycare where your pup is treated like family, not just “watched.” I am generally home all day and host one dog or one family at a time, so your pet receives personalized attention, a peaceful environment, and plenty of love, play, and one-on-one care throughout their stay. No crowded boarding situations. No overwhelming chaos. Just a safe, cozy home where dogs can settle in, relax, and feel comfortable. I have almost 30 years of hands-on experience, caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, energy levels, and unique needs. My experience includes: • Owning and training dogs since I was 18 (almost 30 years) • 15 years fostering and helping to rehabilitate abused and neglected dogs • Animal behavior and handling training through Best Friends Animal Society and Salt Lake County Animal Services • Volunteer experience as a dog specialist in high-stress shelter environments • Pet First Aid & CPR certification • Experience administering oral and injectable medications • Currently enrolled in the GoodPup Dog Training Course to continue expanding my knowledge and skills My goal is simple: for you to feel completely at ease while your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home. I am generally home all day. I adjust my day around your pup(s). Energetic and needs a lot of exercise? We'll go for walks, hikes, and play to their hearts content. More of a couch potato? Laid back couch snuggles are one of my favorite pass times! Fur babies are rarely left alone. If I do need to step out, it is typically only for a short period of time, usually no more than a an hour or two. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. Dogs staying with me enjoy a calm, home-based environment with plenty of love, attention, and one-on-one care. There are no pets or children in the home, which helps create a quieter, lower-stress environment for dogs who prefer a little more peace and consistency. My family are all dog people, so pups are always surrounded by people who genuinely love and enjoy them. We have a fenced patio/run where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, stretch their legs, and take easy potty breaks throughout the day. I also have a secure lead setup in the front yard where dogs who enjoy the outdoors can safely relax, sunbathe on the outdoor bed, sniff around, and enjoy some fresh air while supervised. We’re also surrounded by some of Daybreak’s best dog-friendly parks, walking trails, and green space, including areas near the lake, which means lots of safe, leashed walks, fresh air, sniffing, and enrichment. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I require a meet & greet for all new clients to make sure we are a great fit before booking.
About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I have my own sweet little rescue dog who is good with other dogs and loves people to death! I am an active and experienced pet owner who knows how hard it is to find someone you trust to look after your little one! That’s why I’m here. I want to help you feel confident and comfortable inviting someone into your home to care for your pet. I have a big fenced yard at my home, and lots of room for dogs to run and play. I pride myself in treating all animals with love and respect. I can recognize dogs’ various signals, and feel confident that I can keep your pet safe, happy and healthy! I am a full time stay at home mom! I would love to take care of your pet in the evenings and weekends while my husband can be home from work with my human babies! As a mom and the manager of my own home, I am a very clean and detail oriented person. I will always treat your home with upmost respect. I’m happy to water plants, pick up your mail, or complete any other small tasks you may need while I’m caring for your pet. I will follow any instructions you have on where you’d like them to sleep, how they like to be fed, rules of the house, etc. your wish is my command!
About: For pups that need more than a place to stay, we provide peaceful, fun, private, in-home care. From daily walks and pup cup runs to catch in the yard, couch naps, training enrichment, hikes, and dog-friendly field trips, our home is clean, fun, and full of natural light, with music playing, access to a fenced deck, and plenty of sunny spots to lounge. We host one guest family at a time to provide close attention. Hello! I’m Helen, and together with Kayla, we’ll be your pup’s concierge. Between the two of us, we have a combined 30 years of raising and loving dogs, cats, and the occasional sugar glider. As dog moms ourselves, we need total peace of mind knowing our own pets are not being treated like a chore, but truly enjoyed. We want your pup to feel snuggled, seen, and loved just like at home. We each have a friendly, fun-loving dog, Leia and Arlo, who love hanging out and playing with new friends. They are oddly good at matching a guest dog’s energy and helping shy dogs feel comfortable. I also have two cats who don’t acknowledge any dog’s existence. We’d love for your pup to join our pack while you’re out in the world. I (Helen) work from home full-time, and Kayla, works during the day. I am the "Stay-At-Home" dog mom; which allows me to be fully present, so your dog is not left alone for long stretches of time, and they are consistently provided care. Kayla takes the evening shift with the pups, and tires them out with a lot of fetch, and tug-o-war with our mountain of dog toys. I take safety and trust very seriously; we have a very short list of people we trust with our fur babies, so when your pup stays with us, we are attentive and keep a watchful eye on their moods, body language, eating and bathroom patterns, etc. We want all animals to be treated with the same care and presence we give ours. If something ever feels off, I’ll reach out and communicate with you right away. We take extra note of how they are settling in for the first few days and will work with you to get them adjusted. We like to keep all the animals in eyesight, to ensure everyone is accounted for and comfortable. Leia and Arlo follow us everywhere, so where they go the other dogs usually follow suit. We change out water fountains daily (using filtered water from the fridge), and have multiple running water fountain stations throughout the house. I sweep and vacuum every two days so pups don’t have access to anything unsafe on the floor. My city requires dogs to be on leash in public areas, and I personally feel safest keeping your dog leashed during our potty breaks and walks. I do have a fenced yard, but there is no locking gate, so dogs are only allowed out there with one of us present. I generally avoid dog parks due to concerns around illness and unpredictable behavior from unfamiliar dogs. We regularly meet up with trusted, well-socialized dogs pup friends for backyard playdates. We have a park right across the street and a huge school field that is great for play.
About: I'm a pet lover who currently does not have any pets. I would love to care for yours. Comfortable with dogs of all sizes, bunnies, ferrets, birds, etc. I work from home so your pet won't feel lonely. Available for boarding any day of the week. Available for walking M-F evenings and weekend afternoons or evenings. Since I do work from home during the week I can only consider staying at your home Friday or Saturday evenings. My yard is large, fully fenced, fully landscaped and safe. I am home most of the time as well. Pets can be crated or non crated. I work from home during the day. Most pups like to hang out in the office near me while I’m working. I take regular breaks to let them out during the day. Once I am finished with work I am available for walks or playtime in the yard and relaxing/cuddle time before bed. I am a homebody and will be with your pet the majority of the time they are with me. My yard is spacious, safe and secure with no hazardous concerns. The neighborhood is quiet.
About: While I mainly have experience caring for farm animals, I love dogs and cats just the same and will be sure they are taken care of and their needs are met! Monday - Thursday I have school 3pm - 10pm so mornings and late nights works best. Friday - Sunday I am available to work all day! I treat all animals with lots of love and care, making sure that they are healthy and also happy! I especially like to play with pets and go for walks with them. If there is a list of responsibilities I need to accomplish for your pet, I will make sure they get done.
“Jennifer was great and took really good care of our kitty. She provided updates each visit and was very understanding of our requirements. Will definitely consider her for next time!”

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.
“Erin was great with our cat Rodger. She is kind, caring and attentive. We showed her how we give him injections of a medication and she did a great job doing it, which was very important to us. She also played and brushed him and he liked her very much. She kept us updated and texted his pictures. We would definitely hire her again.”

About: I have loved, owned, and cared for animals of all kinds since I was a child. Family, friends, neighbors, (even strangers!) have often commented on the “special connection” I seem to naturally have with animals. I currently have (and have had) a menagerie of my own animals in my life (dogs, cats, lizard, turtle, rabbits, birds, fish, axolotls, frogs, hamsters, guinea pigs) and I adore each and every one of them. I am able and willing to walk, play, feed, potty, house-sit, cuddle and love any and all animals you’ve got! I work minimal, part-time hours during the day. No nights or weekends. So I am pretty flexible and available. I have my own full-time, dependable transportation. I am friendly, kind, and patient (with animals AND people!). I am reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. I can easily follow directions and I’m great at communicating. I am capable, confident, and adaptable and I can promise to love your animal babies as if they were my own.
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! I work early mornings during the week, and my wife is also working. We have a range from 10-2pm on most days (at worst I’m back home by 3) so that leaves a 4-5 hour range that your pup would be left alone.We’re both available all day on weekends and offer flexible care throughout the week. With one of us always home, your pup will get constant love, attention, and exercise. 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.
“Alaina was very professional and took excellent care of our cats while we were kn vacation. Took plenty of time to visit with them and make sure they had plenty of love!”

“Sami is awesome! We ended up just giving her a key to our apartment and would ask her frequently and often with short notice to come by and take our dog Rey out if we would be away for several hours, which was a huge help. She was great with Rey and always played with her and was very attentive to her needs.”

“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
We love Sharon! This was our second time trusting her with our girls, and she did an incredible job. She made sure every single cat felt loved and attended to. She was respectful of our home, kept us updated the whole time, and sent the cutest photos of our fur babies.

Stacey is the best Rover I’ve booked! She spent so much time giving my kitty attention that he was so content when I got home. She kept my place very clean and took very informative pictures so I felt confident that everything I asked for was being done well! Highly recommend booking her.

Lily took great care of our kitties for an extended holiday trip, giving daily updates so we knew the kitties were doing well! She was proactive in asking about a few house-care related things, and when we came back, all was well with the cats and the house. We'll be back in touch for future trips!

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.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Riverton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Riverton. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
