“Alexis had great communication and sent pictures/videos of our dogs. Both had a great time playing and snuggling. Definitely going to book with Alexis again.”
“Holly did a wonderful job watching our girl, Izzy, while we attended the Pro Women’s Softball game in Salt Lake City. This was the very first time we had ever left Izzy with someone we didn’t know, so we were naturally a little nervous. Holly was patient and understanding with Izzy, especially when she was hesitant to leave on the group walk because she was looking for us where we had dropped her off. Holly took her on a walk with about five other dogs, and Izzy did well! It was reassuring to hear that she settled in and handled the experience so nicely. We really appreciated Holly’s communication and the care she gave Izzy. Knowing our pup was safe, exercised, and in good hands allowed us to relax and enjoy the game. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Holly to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter, and we’d be happy to have Izzy stay with her again!”
“Our dog Ira loved spending the day at Hillary’s house. When I dropped of Ira, I could tell the she was attentive to his needs and her dog interacted well with him (even though he is much smaller). I will certainly use Hillary again for dog sitting!”
“Amazing to work with for doggie daycare sessions! Easy to plan with and schedule, communicative ahead of and during the daycare sessions, and they shared some amazing portraits of our pooch -- extra impressive since he's a squirmy little puppy :) Biscuit was in a great mood after his daycare sessions, lolling around in the backyard, playing with Niko and Kili, and lots of good naps.”
“Tara was amazing!!! She was so caring for our pup, kept us updated with pictures through her stay, and was available last minute when we needed someone to watch her. We are so grateful! Will definitely be coming back!”
“Tumaye was amazing!!! Our dog Yoshi had the best time hanging out with him and playing in his yard! Yoshi has some anxiety but Tumaye was good at making sure he was calm and playing with him! We would 100% have Tumaye dog sit for us again! He was such a life saver!!”
“divine is so kind. she always makes sure that santiago is well loved and cared for. any time i drop santiago off, he is so excited. one thing is that my dog has a hard time eating at other places. divine always tries to make him feel safe and is willing to try lots of different foods with them. overall, i feel confident that santiago is being well cared for while staying with divine.”
“We can't recommend Jeff and Heidi enough. We have brought our puppy to stay with them multiple times and he always comes home tired and happy. They are very reliable and flexible, and always respond within minutes. Kodi can't wait to visit again!”
About: Friends have trusted me to care for their pets for the past 6 years and counting. I have experience with overnight care, house sitting, check-ins/drop-ins, dog walks, administering oral medications, senior dog care, puppy care, dog training, and dog grooming. I’m currently going to school part time and working part time. Mostly virtually so I am mobile. I have plenty of free time to care for your fur babies. I live in an apartment with one sweet girl dog named Luna. So your fur babies will have a friend. I take my dog to the dog park frequently. We have a nice neighborhood to go on walks. Or car rides are fun. I train for treats so the animals will be well behaved and of course the fur babies always get lots of love.
About: I have had pets in my home for my entire life. I have volunteered in animal shelters since 2019 and currently do regular shifts at a local shelter, where I walk dogs (I am trained to the most advanced level, meaning I can interact with and walk dogs who are still working on their social skills and interactions), take dogs and cats on local news shows to encourage adoption, foster dogs in my own home, and take part in educational opportunities to continually advance my animal care and advocacy abilities. My full-time job is remote and has a flexible schedule, so I can hang out with pets for much of the day and take breaks for outside time, playtime, appointments, and so on. I also teach a handful of yoga classes every week, usually in the late mornings, but the times vary from week to week. I am happy to give your pet what they need, whether that's scritichies, playtime, walks, gentle time sitting around, medicine, and so on. Whatever it is, I will be patient with them and their needs.
“I was so happy to be able to have Maritza watch my puppy at the last minute on Thanksgiving day. Maritza's warm and kind personality made me feel extremely comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She sent fun photos during his stay. I definitely would recommend Maritza to dog owners and I will most definitely be booking with her again. ??❤️”
“Madeline and Jacob were amazing! They were so attentive and Jack had the best time! They took him on a walk and sent lots of pictures. He came home happy as can be and thoroughly tired.”
“Alyssa is awesome. She’s super friendly, communicative and trustworthy. She was sending us pictures throughout the day. It was our first time separated from our dog for so long and it went very smoothly! Sugi is going back in two days :-)”
“Cari has been dogsitting our little dog, Cava, for a little while now and she is the best part of Cava's day. In fact, in the morning when Cava doesn't want to get out of bed, all I have to do is tell her we're going to Cari's and she races past me to the door, overwhelmed with excitement to spend the day with Cari. It makes my mama heart so happy to know that she is well taken care of and loved.”

Avery was awesome and took my two springer pups at short notice for an afternoon. After driving from WY there were happen to get out and play and she took good care of them, tiring them out at the park. Happy pups when I picked them up. Avery is very friendly and warm and clearly loves dogs and making them happy -
Kerri is amazing! She has cared for my dogs for over 3 years. Kerri and Beth provided excellent care for my blind elderly dog at the end of his life. Now they provide excellent care for my dog with a seizure disorder. I know he will receive his medications on time, walks, snuggles and zen naps while with them. My dog is always excited when I drop him off to spend time with them!

Easily the best experience I’ve had with doggie daycare. Dom took Josie on all the adventures, sent a ton of good updates, and even helped with training tips. You can tell she has a deep love and understanding of dogs, highly recommend to anyone who loves their pup.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Salt Lake City on Rover is $36.63 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,630 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Salt Lake City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Salt Lake City commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in UT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,630 sitters in Salt Lake City, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
