About: Hi! My name is Nickolas, I currently work early mornings and I get off at 1 pm. I am looking for reoccurring clients (daily or weekly) that need some assistance with their animals. I have experience from puppies, dogs, cats, geckos, and snakes. I am slightly allergic to cats, so overnight stays wouldn’t be ideal, but drop in feedings are no problem. I work 5am - 1pm Monday - Friday, so any time after 1 pm on weekdays I am able to provide services for whatever you are looking for. I currently have a dog, two geckos, and a snake. These animals have given me more than adequate amount of experience over the years of having them. I am caring and very observant when it comes to animals, so no injuries / infections will slip by!
About: Heading up to the Mountain for some fun in the snow? Drop off your pup, I’m on the way :) I have years of experience taking care of puppies and adult dogs. Big and small breeds, I understand each dog comes with it's very unique personality and needs. My availability is open mainly for weekends and boarding for longer periods of time. I update my calendar on a regular basis and will update my clients if any changes happen. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly and playful dogs they are crate trained. I can keep your pet inside the house, they are allowed on furniture and beds and I can put in a crate if needed in the garage. I live by two popular dog play areas so finding space to walk/play is no problem.
“Robyn is lovely and my picky, scaredy-cats took really well to her right off the bat which is unusual for them. I would definitely recommend and work with Robyn again. Thank you, Robyn!”
“It was my pup’s first time hanging with Wendy & we are very happy with her warmness & communication! I especially love the videos & pictures as it gave me ease knowing she was in good hands :)”
“Ashley is very friendly and professional. It was clear from our first meeting that her first priority was the well being and commitment to my two cats while I was out of town on vacation. She checked in for all committed visits and communicated with me when there was any deviation to the dates and times of the visits. She clearly was very loving to my two cats because she snapped a picture of them and she got to pet them. That only happens with their approval. Lol. I highly recommend Ashley to provide services while you are away. I will definitely be using her going forward.”
“Olivia was great with my pups! There was great communication and she sent updates and photos of the visit! I knew they were well taken care of! Would definitely work with her again!”
About: I always jump at the opportunity to pet, play, cuddle with any dog but I am also a former dog mom of 10 years which means I have experience doing all of the things a dog parent does: grooming, trimming nails, feeding, walking/hiking, training (potty/walks/kennel/sit, stay, etc.), cleaning up doggy messes, socializing, administering medicine, establishing a schedule, etc. I am very active so I can keep up with your dog's energy and can also be their cuddle buddy when they're tired! In addition, I have experience caring for anywhere from 1-7 dogs at a time ranging from puppy to senior and chihuahua to husky so I understand that each dog is unique and will need care adjusted to their needs and personality. My availability is flexible and dependent on your location and the amount of days you're looking for! I'm an educator, however, I'm taking a break from full time teaching to pursue my passion of permaculture. My schedule is much more flexible now and I'd like to spend my extra time with some furry friends! I'm a very tidy and clean person so I would be sure to follow any routines you have set in place as well as clean up after myself and your pet. I am comfortable kenneling your pet or letting them roam, whatever's your preference!
About: I’ve volunteered with raising puppies and caring for senior dogs my entire life basically, I have pet sat disabled dogs as well. I am prepared to deal with any personality dog or cat as I have met and taken care of lots of variety between breeds and different species. I’m currently working part time from home so I am free whenever you need me! I would love the chance to get out of the house more and get the chance to care for animals again! I have a beautiful cat named Izzy whom I saved from a bad environment, with many toys and cat trees available. Two litter boxes as well.
“This is our third time working with Ronda and we’re very happy with her work! She remembers the details from the last visits and she always sends great updates and pictures of our two cats.”
“Brittany provided fabulous care and company for our active, gregarious cat! Her notes about Frodo’s activities match his usual antics, underscoring how comfortable and at ease he is with Brittany. Yippee!! Being new to using Rover, my family is excited to have someone who can make Frodo forget we’re not home and be happy, but not anxious, upon our return. In fact, he’s probably looking forward to the next visit with her, rain or shine. ?”
About: We love animals! We especially love caring for dogs, after our beloved golden retriever passed away 12/2024. My two children (14 and 10) and I will be loving on your pets. I own my businesses and work from home! Completely flexible schedule with plenty of time for walks and play. We’d love to watch your pet. We have a comfortable, pet-friendly home in a very safe neighborhood, just two blocks from a park with plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time. Our yard is unfenced, so dogs will always be supervised and leashed outside. We do have one cat, so we’re only able to host pets who have experience with cats and are comfortable and safe around them.
“Elena is great and has been taking care of my boys for a very long time. Castle and yuma are big boys with special needs as one is extremely reactive and the other deaf and she handles them both perfectly. She is always on time and my boys love her. Only walker I prefer to use.”
About: I have five years of experience pet-sitting and housesitting. I grew up on a farm in Oregon, and I have taken care of a variety of pets of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I will always make sure that your pet’s needs are met and that they feel loved! I am available to walk and care for pets during the day, as well as spend the night. I pride myself on my time-management - I will make your pet my priority! I will always arrive on time and follow all instructions left for me. I will respect your home and your space, and do everything I can to make sure that your pet feels respected and safe.
About: My name is Faulkner, my partner Meredith and I do not currently have a dog but we love spending time with dogs! We would love to look after your furry friend! I have had a lot of experience caring for dogs. I grew up taking care of dogs. I worked at the Morris Animal Inn in NJ, where I walked dogs being boarded. I have experience caring for animals who need medication. As well as experience taking animals on emergency hospital visits. Every dog has unique needs. I approach each dog to match their needs. I work well with both high and low energy dogs. I am capable of providing exercise for athletic dogs. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!
About: I've taken care of dogs/cats since I was 10. I am trusted by neighbors/friends, them relying on me when out of town or for day care. I am patient, loving, and easy going. I will love your pet(s) like my own. I have experience with walking, feeding, bathing, and have information with some medical care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy
Emily did an amazing job; my original sitter had something come up so I needed someone last minute and she was understanding, flexible, and communicative. I could tell from the pictures she sent me that our cat loved the attention from her. Would definitely book her again!
Casey was terrific with my darling Frodo. Casey was super attentive, playful and caring with Frodo, communicative after every drop-in, including cute photos of Frodo, and basically, exactly what I would hope for in a pet caretaker. Yippee for Casey, and of course, plan to use him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sandy on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of September 2026, there are 6,279 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sandy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Sandy 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 Sandy. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
