“Kayleigh was amazing! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away. We got many updates and felt so comfortable leaving our fur babies with her! We came back to a super clean and organized house. We’re so grateful!”
“First time leaving our new puppy and 1.5 year old dog with a sitter- Hunter came out and did a meet and greet first to get the puppies acquainted. Received updates and photos. They were happy and tired when we returned. Great experience.”
“★★★★★ Jisu was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our home to watch our two dogs and took such great care of them. We came back to happy pups and a spotless house. She sent regular updates, was super reliable, and clearly treated our dogs like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Brooklin stayed at our house for 10 days to take care of our elderly dog and our very energetic puppy. She went above and beyond in every way and did an amazing job!!!! She cared for and looked after our dogs like they were her own. Our puppy had some medical issues while we were gone and Brooklin handled them perfectly. She also was very respectful of our house while she was staying here. We highly recommend Brooklin for any services that Rover offers!!!”
“Eric took such good care of my four-legged friend while she was having some stomach issues. He monitored her took her for an extra long walk and gave her all the cuddles. I always know my sweet dog is in good hands with Eric!”
“Alex was the perfect weekend buddy for our two pitbull mixes. They showed up right on time for the meet and greet, and seemed happy and patient to be around the dogs. During the pet sitting, we received several updates and dog photos which we always appreciate. We came back to our home exactly how we had left it. We would definitely book Alex again, and would recommend them to others as well!”
“Highly recommend! Shalindra provided a week of in-home care for our two dogs, a guinea pig and a gecko. She was delightful to work with. The dogs took to her very quickly, and she was affectionately patient with their unique/opposite personalities. I especially appreciated her daily photo and video updates, and how careful she was to ask questions and provide details on anything happening at the house. I felt confident all was well cared-for, and was truly able to enjoy the time away because Shalindra had everything covered at home.”
“She was great! We have 3 big dogs and she knew how to interact with them, even our more difficult to handle one. She sent pictures and kept us up-to-date which was so nice.”
“Just wanted to give Madison another shoutout for her flexibility in bookings and for taking good care of my fur babies while I travel - she’s the best! 🐾🐾”
“Stephanie took excellent care of our Boy. She left our house extremely tidy and was so great with communication the entire time she was there. I highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Kaitlyn was stellar! We have 3 dogs and 1 cat and she did an amazing job taking care of all of our pets. What we really appreciated was Kaitlyn’s detailed notes and updates every day letting us know how the pets did and how things were going. She was very attentive to all the pets and followed all our instructions. When we came home, the house was clean and the pets seemed happy, so couldn’t ask for anything more! We will absolutely be using Kaitlyn again in the future for pet sits.”
“We always feel so relieved when Cassandra is available to watch our boys. They absolutely adore her, and it’s so obvious that she takes the time to give them both the special attention that both of their unique personalities need. Our home is always spotless and well cared for, and we can travel anywhere with peace of mind ♥️”
“We could tell coming home from our trip that our dog and cat had experienced lots of love while we were gone! Our home was well taken care of and our packages were neatly put inside. Talia was very communicative, on time, and even made sure she had our dogs favorite treats on hand when she walked through the door.”
“Timothy did an amazing job looking after our pets! He communicated with us and sent pictures. We felt that our animals were safe and I'd definitely request him again. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and have been pet sitting for friends and family for over 7 years. I have experience with walking up to three dogs, drop ins and overnights, administering oral medications on a time sensitive schedule, and providing structure for rambunctious puppies. I love playing fetch in the yard just as much as cuddling on the couch. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! I’m currently a student taking online classes and working part time 1-2 days a week in the early morning. I have a very open and flexible schedule. I will take dogs into a fenced yard or go on walks regularly, provide enrichment with toys and treats, following mealtime schedules, and basic cleanup around the house including scooping poop in the yard.
“Stuart took amazing care of my dog, Denali, while I was out of town. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. Denali loved him! I completely trust Stuart and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”

Brooklin did an incredible job taking care of our dog and 2 cats. She was communicative, and exceptionally in tune with the animals, giving them lots of love and keeping us updated. She also took great care of our home and went out of her way to help with our garden. I highly recommend her and we will absolutely work with her again!
Julie was AMAZING! I was very nervous as a first timer with both my house and fur baby. Julie made me feel at ease and provided the best care for both Amelia and our home. We got daily updates and pictures on how things were going which we greatly appreciated. We chose Julie because of her outstanding reviews and she totally lived up to them. I would 100% recommend Julie for house or dog sitting and she will be my go to person in the future for any upcoming needs. Amelia misses her now that we are home and was sitting by the door of our guest room this morning. She is defiantly the best experience I have ever had with dog sitting or boarding in the past 30 years. The Amelia and I were very happy with the experience.
Satsuki did an amazing job watching Eleanor! As a self-proclaimed anxious, helicopter dog mom, I always dread finding new sitters for my baby. However, Satsuki's excellent communication and vibe completely put me at ease after our meet and greet. She gave me daily updates and let me know the exact moment Eleanor received her medication. I loved getting the frequent photos and mood updates throughout my trip! On top of taking perfect care of my place, she was even kind enough to pick up a package for me. Satsuki is basically a spaniel expert now and truly understands the unique, quirky nature of these velcro breeds. I highly recommend her!
Becca was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs! She was responsible, tidy, and kept us well informed with regular updates while we were away. We felt completely comfortable trusting her with the dogs, and she made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well walked throughout her stay. One of our dogs needed daily medication, and Becca handled it perfectly. We’d definitely book Becca again and would happily recommend her!
Briana was amazing! She agreed to come by for a short visit before the booked time to meet George and get a walkthrough of his needs and the space, she was super friendly and kind and listened to my rambling list of things to know to take care of George. While I was gone, she sent frequent updates with pictures and descriptions of how he’d been and how they’d played together. George was happy and healthy when I came home and I’m so grateful that she kept him company and took care of him.
As a former vet tech and pet-sitter, I am pretty picky when it comes to my pets. That said, Envee has been my favorite sitter in memorable history. She managed my senior dog and cat's laundry list of medications and quirks without a moment of hesitation. Despite two separate car issues, she still showed up and took my high energy pup, Sierra, on a bunch of "field trips" around town. We got a pretty low key welcome home from Sierra after she'd had so much fun. She was communicative and sent numerous photos every day. As much as I want to have Envee available whenever we need her in the future, it's only fair to share this hidden gem with other pet owners in the area. Highly recommend her to everyone 💚
We had a wonderful experience with Raven. She was a great communicator, kept our home clean and well cared for, and took such amazing care of our pup while we were away. She also sent lots of pictures of all the cuddles and walks, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was happy and in such good hands. We would absolutely use Raven again and highly recommend her!

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.
