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: We’re Diana and Lauren, and we’ve been caring for dogs for many years. As a team, we’ve looked after dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and care needs. We’ve cared for multiple dogs at the same time, including those with special diets, medication schedules, exercise routines, and dogs who simply needed extra patience, attention, or affection. We understand that every dog is different, and we take the time to learn their routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Our home is a great place for dogs to relax and have fun. We have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where they can safely play and explore, as well as a beautiful park right behind our house that’s perfect for daily walks, exercise, and plenty of sniffing adventures. Whether your pup loves to stay active or prefers a quieter day filled with cuddles, we’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they deserve. Since we're a two-person pet care team! One of us works from home full-time, so your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. Together, we make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. We want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while they’re with us. We live in a spacious house with plenty of room to relax and play, plus a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy the outdoors. Our neighborhood is very pet-friendly, and we’re lucky to have a large park right behind our home, making it easy to go on fun walks, get some exercise, and enjoy lots of fresh air.
“We are so incredibly grateful for the love and care our senior boy received during his drop-in visit! He has some mobility issues, and she was so patient and attentive, physically assisting him when he went out to the bathroom so he wouldn't slip or fall. She handled his lunch and medication perfectly, and most of all, she showered him with genuine affection. It is clear she truly loves animals, especially the sweet seniors who need a little extra grace. We highly recommend her and will absolutely be booking again!”
“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: Welcome to Wiggly Butt Retreat, where dogs are spoiled, snuggled, and adored. I provide calm, home-based dog boarding and daycare designed to feel less like traditional boarding and more like staying with someone your dog already knows and loves. I am generally home throughout the day, so my guests get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, outdoor breaks, and, of course, naps and cuddles. I intentionally keep things small and personal. I mostly care for one dog/household at a time. If I do take more than one, it's always discussed with owners and I'm very selective about the dogs I accept together. I consider personality, temperament, size, energy level, age, and individual needs because I want every dog in my home to feel safe and comfortable. This is not a crowded kennel or large daycare environment. It is my home, and every dog who stays here becomes part of it for a little while. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for almost 30 years. I've raised and trained my own dogs, spent about 15 years fostering and helping rehabilitate abused and neglected dogs, volunteered as a dog specialist in high-stress shelter environments, and completed animal behavior and handling training through Best Friends Animal Society and Salt Lake County Animal Services. That experience has taught me that dogs aren't one-size-fits-all. Some want to play all day. Some would happily spend the afternoon curled up next to me. Some need a little extra patience before they decide I'm trustworthy. And some need more structure, space, or reassurance to feel comfortable. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog's personality and figuring out what makes them happiest. Most importantly, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. My goal is for you to leave knowing they're safe, loved, understood, and probably being spoiled a little more than they'll admit when you get home. Welcome to Wiggly Butt Retreat. Cozy home, calm vibes, happy tails. I am generally home throughout the day, and I keep our daily routine flexible based on the needs of the pups staying with me. Energetic and ready to go? There will be plenty of walks, outdoor time, play, and opportunities to burn off that energy. More of a couch potato? Laid-back days, cozy naps, and couch snuggles are some of my favorite pastimes! Because I intentionally keep the number of dogs in my care exclusive/small, I'm able to get to know each pup's personality and make sure they get the right balance of activity, attention, play, and downtime. Not every dog wants to do the same thing, and that's perfectly okay. Pups are rarely left alone while staying with me. If I do need to step out, it's typically for a short period of time, usually no more than an hour or two. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. 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’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.
“Katie and her husband were amazing! Extremely communicative, knowledgeable, and helpful! They took care of all unexpected issues without complaining or questioning. They made us feel so safe and comfortable with our two dogs! We have already booked them again for our next trip.”
“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.”
“She was suchhhhh a big help. Our boy a pitbull with anxiety and for most he can be quite intimidating but they were über responsive, caring, and thoughtful throughout our whole time away from our dog. I cannot emphasize enough what a great job they did helping us care for our fur baby. Would recommend to anyone and everyone looking for walker/sitter”
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.
“Samantha was exceptionally caring and kind. She goes above and beyond to ensure your fur baby is taken care of. She did a wonderful job caring to our Bella’s needs. We will most certainly book her again in the future!”
“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.”
“Hanna is incredible!! She was so patient with our shy kitties, and she was their new best friend after a few days. Excellent communication and organization! We'll definitely use Hanna's services again! Thank you! 😊”
“Callie was great! She came at the set time, was patient with my pup while he warmed up to her, and gave me live updates and pics. It made me feel like he was in good hands with her. I’ll definitely use her in the future!”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
Stacey is my favorite pet caregiver. I’ve hired several sitters over the past few years, and she is second to none. She consistently goes above and beyond my expectations, treating my pets with genuine care and attention. I always have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in her hands!!
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.

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.

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.
