About: You want a sitter who follows your rules, doesn't get overwhelmed, and genuinely enjoys the quirks of your pets. That’s my sweet spot. With 20 years of experience, I’ve seen it all—from high-energy dogs who need a solid hike to burn off the zoomies, to sweet seniors who just need a gentle pace and their meds on time. I’m big on routine, clear communication, and respecting your space. Your pets get a reliable companion; you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being active. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets attention, consistency, companionship, exercise, and personalized care throughout the day. I enjoy creating, fun, positive experiences for pets whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, check-ins, enrichment activities, or simply helping them stick to their normal routine while their owners are away or busy. I also love to go on hikes close by and running those really active pups. I treat every pet like an individual and make time to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. A typical day with me is calm, flexible, and tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level. Some pets want adventure, enrichment, and outdoor time, while others are happiest with companionship, routine, cuddles, and a relaxed environment. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping owners updated with communication and photos. Depending on your pet’s needs, visits can include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, medication support, potty breaks, relaxing companionship, or outings for extra stimulation and exercise. I’m especially patient with shy pets, seniors, and animals who need extra reassurance or consistency. I believe pets do best when they feel understood instead of rushed or stressed. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for owners, and care that feels personal instead of one-size-fits-all.
“Faith was absolutely amazing. As a neurotic pet parent with no supports in the area, I don’t know what I would do without her and the peace of mind I was able to have while I was away. Faith was great with communicating with me and went above and beyond during her visits. She’s also a great photographer and got some pictures that added major wellness points for me! Would 10/10 recommend!”
“Alaina was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover or leaving this particular pet for more than a day, and so there was a bit of apprehension on our end, but Alaina made it so easy! Alaina was attentive to our needs, observant of any possible issues we’d want to know about, and took such good care of our cat. We are so grateful!!”
“After having trouble deciding what to do, we were blessed to find Sandi. This was our first time leaving our cat and we couldn't have found a better person to watch over her. Our cat tends to be shy and wants to stay away from people, but in the short time Sandi watched over her, our cat quickly got attached to Sandi. We loved all the pictures we got while we were away. Thank you for taking care of our little Sammy.”
About: I take a steady, attentive approach to pet care—great for dogs that thrive on routine and patience. You can expect clear communication, on-time visits, and a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I am home pretty much all day every day, so I can give your pet the attention they need. I am available nights and weekends as well I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. Whether your pet prefers being inside or outside, they’ll have plenty of space, attention, and a secure environment throughout their stay.
About: I have a lot of experience with walking dogs as I volunteer at the humane society walking dogs. I have experience taking care of sick cats and elderly cats in whatever needs they have. I take care of my dog every day taking him on walks or playing with him. I go to the humane society 3 times a week either walking dogs, hanging out with cats, or working in the clinic I care for the pets as I would my own, with all the love I can give. Whether that is taking him on daily walks, chilling on the coach, playing fetch, or bringing home pup cups
“Lindsey was super flexible in assisting us in a last minute situation. Her communication was excellent and she gave us frequent updates regarding our dog which made us feel at ease. We would highly recommend her.”
“Edna took amazing care of my puppy! She took him on a walk and made sure he got a potty break and communicated very well. I will definitely book again if I need help with my puppy another day.”
“Eva was so great with our dog! She spent plenty of time with Lilah and was great with communication, always sharing pictures each visit. Would recommend booking Eva!”
About: Hi!!!! I have a big heart for dogs. Sadly my golden doodle passed away last year and I’m aching for some time with a pup! I have experience casually house sitting and dog walking. Please reach out and I’m happy to see how I can help! I am currently working part time and would love some dog walking and house sitting opportunities! I’m flexible and around all day on the days I don’t work. I will not be able to house dogs or animals in my home. However, I am happy to come to your home for a walk or overnight stay if needed.
“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.”
“Michelle Is great with my kitty, she sends pictures and videos and written summaries, which I really appreciate. She is very helpful to me and my kitty. I appreciate her services so much. She is very responsive and caring.”
“Sophie was wonderful! She went above and beyond taking care of Cady, and was great at noticing when things needed to be cleaned or fixed. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Cady!”
“Kristi is always wonderful – my cats love her. She is very thorough, and leaves everything very clean. She sends me photos of her snuggling with my babies, and they interact with her in common ways. I will always choose her!”
“Mabel is amazing! She is a kind person and was so nice to our dogs. They loved her. She is attentive and thorough too. We enjoyed receiving pictures and updates. We will definitely call to use her services again. Thank you so much!”
“Rachel was the absolute best! Our first time needing this service and she came through providing the loving care our Cooper needed. Can’t begin to thank her enough! Truly a find. We would recommend and use her again if she isn’t booked up 😀 Thank you Rachel”
About: Ive had animals my entire life. Everything from dogs, cats, birds, small critters, fish and reptiles, you name it and I have probably had it at some point in my life. I started pet sitting when I was about 10. When my neighbors would go out of town, I would go over throughout the day and let their dogs out, play with them and feed them. As an adult, my friends now have me watching their pets either at their home or mine. They know their babies are in good hands and will be spoiled the way they spoil them. I'm a stay at home mom so I am ALWAYS around! I have worked since I was 16 years old so not having a job just isn't an option for me and I love animals more than most people so why not work with them full time! I'm here if you have a puppy that is still potty training or a pet that needs medicine administered every few hours ( I had a diabetic lab that required shots daily and a pointer with an enlarged heart so I know how important maintaining a medical schedule is). I have a fully fenced yard and a doggy door. I have gates up in my home for my baby but it also works with my pets if I need them out of an area of the house. My pets are allowed on the couches and the bed, we love to snuggle here!
“Kira is a sweetheart and my dog, Maizy, took to her right away. Kira did drop in visits, took her on walks, and spent extra time with her. Maizy was so happy with the attention and Kira was great company for her. I looked forward to the updates, receiving notes/picture each time. Kira is trustworthy and I really appreciate her tender loving care of my sweet puppy.”
About: Growing up my mom brought home animals in need all the time. Whether it was helping a duck with one foot, or pet sitting 5 ferrets on top of the 5 we already had. I was definitely born into taking care of animals! Also I was able to help with my dog giving birth when I was in 5th grade! I just currently quit my job to start traveling with my boyfriend for his job. So I have so much time for myself, and definitely needing something to do! Pet care fits into my day to day life, when you need me to! At my home, our two cats are neighborhood cats so they come and go as they please. But our dogs are fenced in with a doggy door to the back yard!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy
Sarah was very attentive, flexible and communicative. She clearly took a personal interest in our pup's well-being and went out of her way to ensure he felt loved while his fav "people" were away. I would not hesitate to entrust our pets to her care going forward.
Kelcie did an amazing job taking care of our dog and our home while we were away! She came by each day without fail, kept our pup happy and loved, and even collected our chicken eggs — which was above and beyond! We came home to a happy dog and everything exactly as we left it. She is reliable, caring, and clearly a true animal lover. We would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Amazing! Thank you so much. Lela was perfect at checking in on the doggies and giving them attention and care! We will definitely ask again on any and all future trips. Peace of mind was everything. Handled a minor paw injury and made sure food and water were always full. Astrid and Vega were very well taken care of. Thanks again!
Brittany is the best!!! She has taken care of our dogs several times when we’ve been out of town and she’s always done a wonderful job. Our dogs love her and we feel great knowing that they’re in such great hands. She is really communicative and sends detailed updates. She goes above and beyond to help us out by bringing in packages on the doorstep and opening/closing the blinds in our front room so our dogs can watch out the window in their favorite couches. We’re so grateful for Brittany!!
I was so nervous using this app for the first time but had to quickly find someone for my babies due to an unexpected trip. My experience has been amazing! Jennifer is so attentive, kind, communicative, and you can tell genuinely cares for your pups. My fur babies are my everything and I am so lucky that I found Jennifer to care for them. She cares so much for dogs and so I felt comfortable leaving my babies in her care and will definitely continue using her in the future. She’s just the best!

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.
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 Sandy 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!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Sandy with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
