“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.”
“Very professional and friendly, gave me great updates. The backyard area is gorgeous and looks like a lot of fun for dogs to play in. Dominique even sent me home with a new little chew for my little Louie. I'll definitely be bringing him back.”
“Holly was very bright and friendly. My dog played well with the other dogs in her home. She took my dog for walks in the park. She was understanding about my schedule being flexible. I will definitely be asking her to take care of my dog again.”
“I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! My dogs were very happy in her care and were excited to go back each morning, which gave me a lot of confidence that they were being well looked after. She was reliable, communicative, and kept me updated with photos and even the routes they took on their walks. It was great to see what they were up to throughout the day. One day, one of my dogs rolled in something particularly messy, and she took the time to get her cleaned up before I picked her up. That extra level of care was really appreciated. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Joshua was very responsive. We made a last minute reservation when we decided to visit Temple Square. He took great care of Finn, knowing that our pup has some anxiety when separated from us. Sent pics and updates and asked questions when Finn was whining, which he normally does. Made our day great knowing Finn was in good hands and well taken care of. Would not hesitate to use Joshua if we are ever back in SLC”
“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!”
“Schnitzel had an incredible time today hanging out with Hilary, Marcelo, and Rio! We’re so glad they were able to take him for doggy daycare and would definitely book again.”
“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 :-)”
About: I am a retired dog groomer, but I do work full time during the week. I can do weekend and holiday care for your fur baby. I will give your dog the love and attention it requires. Whether that be daily trips to the dog park, hikes, or just snuggles in bed. I do ask that all dogs are house trained, but would be willing to take on a puppy if it is the right fit. Although I don’t have a fenced in yard, I live in a very dog friendly community and would also be taking any high energy dogs to the park daily or more if needed. On top of the play they would receive, your dog will be loved and “spoiled” like my own. I want your dog to be excited about their stay with me so that it makes being away from mom and dad that much easier. In addition to the love and play time your pup would receive, I am willing to send your dog home freshly bathed or fully groomed for an additional fee.
“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!!”
“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.”
“LOVE LOVE LOVE THEMMMMM 🤩❤️ I have tried many dog sitters and every time zorro my dog just gets super nervous and anxious and misses home, BUT WITH DIVINE LET ME TELL YOU zorro loves going there and probably wishes he was never picked up 😂 he loves divine and her doggies, and we love the amazing communication, videos and pictures, and kindness she and her sister have shown Zorro. THANK YOU FOREVER DIVINE ❤️❤️❤️”
“Tracey is awesome! We rescued a sweet and shy girl last year. When we reached out to Tracey, she was very patient and understanding. During the meet-and-greet, she and her pack warmly welcomed our shy girl and Tracey gave us a tour of her house and yard. By the end of the meet-and-greet, our girl was trying to play with all of the dogs which was a great sign. When it came to the first dog sitting day, Tracey sent pictures and updates on a regular basis. We were very assured that our girl was in great hands. When we picked her up the next day, Tracey said that she played a lot with her pack, so she was very tired the rest of the evening, which is super awesome for us! Hopefully, with time, our shy girl will eagerly anticipate going to Tracey's. I highly recommend Tracey as a dog sitter. She has great knowledge on dog behavior and can address it to create a warm and comforting environment. Thank you!”
“Juliet was amazing with Frankie!! She sent so many pictures and videos and I felt soooo comfortable with Frankie being there. Frankie came home happy and tired and we will for sure be using Juliet again!”
About: Hi, neighbors and friends! I’m a millennial pug mom who loves dogs. I have raised pugs since I was 3 years old. I come from a family of dog breeders, adopters, fosters, and truly love pets as family. I am offering to love on your dog as much as I love my two pugs. I am available for drops ins visits in the morning time frames from 6-8:00 AM and evenings 6-8:00PM. I have open availability on the weekends and I am flexible! I also take dog clients to the dog park while you are at work or out of town. Coming soon: overnight boarding! Do you also need a ride to or from the airport? You are already planning a lot, I’m happy to provide ride services since I don’t live far! My mission is to help dogs feel safe with someone at home or your home if you need to leave town. I'm currently available to walk your dog in the mornings and evenings, as well as take them to the dog park for a play date. My dogs keep a routine so let us know if your dog also has a special routine so we can accommodate! I'm also happy to sit with them so they don't feel alone if you are out of town. I can visit your pet and make sure they are fed and have water, play with them, let them out and take them for a walk to the dog park if you like.
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salt Lake City
Alexis is the absolute best! I recently moved to Utah and had never used Rover so I was pretty nervous letting a stranger watch my dog. However, Alexis was so welcoming, made me feel at ease, and truly cares about your pet! She’s also very adaptable and will work with your schedule - as a healthcare worker with variable hours, I’m very appreciative of that! Overall, she’s the best and I will be rebooking with her!
Joshua was very responsive. We made a last minute reservation when we decided to visit Temple Square. He took great care of Finn, knowing that our pup has some anxiety when separated from us. Sent pics and updates and asked questions when Finn was whining, which he normally does. Made our day great knowing Finn was in good hands and well taken care of. Would not hesitate to use Joshua if we are ever back in SLC
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.
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!
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!
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.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Salt Lake City
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.
