“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!”
“Chris and his wife, Alex, were once again amazing! They helped us out with a last minute booking request and we are so so grateful. Alex sent the best updates and photos, and also very clearly had our cats personalities figured out in no time😂. We are lucky to have found them-highly recommend!!”
“Steven was great!!! He is great at communicating and responds super fast. He was amazing with our dog, and gave great photos and updates in our rover card. Can’t wait to book with him again! Thank you so much for watching our dog!!”
About: Pet friendly and love all kinds of animals. We are a home that loves any animal and our kids love having dogs around and show them so much love. Our kids are very well behaved around animals and get along with dogs very well. Someone is always home to watch and care for our furry friends. Love and care is always going to be available for your loved pets. Have a fenced in patio if needed and allow owners to bring their pets crates if they would like. Safety and security is at the top of my priorities to make sure your pet is cared for.
About: Leaving your pet with someone new is stressful, I get it. My goal is simple. Treat your pet like family, so you can relax when you are gone. Every visit includes real attention, not just the basics. Playtime, enrichment, and whatever routine your pet is used to. I take time upfront to learn their personality and quirks, so care feels familiar to them, not disruptive. You’ll get honest, timely updates with photos so you’re never left wondering how things are going. I’m a dog mom of two, and I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’ve also looked after friends’ pets for years, so I know how much it means to leave them in good hands. Every animal has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to really understand each one I care for. Reach out and let’s set up a meet and greet. I’d love to meet your pet! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule most days. That means I can offer consistent visits at the same time each day, or adjust if your pet’s routine needs something different. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, feeding, fresh water, and playtime or cuddles, depending on what they’re used to. I match walks to your dog’s energy level, and any specific instructions you give me, whether that’s a calm stroll or a longer walk to burn off energy. House sitting: I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Beyond looking after your pets routine, I keep an eye on the house, bring in mail or packages if needed, and leave things exactly as I found them.
“Madison was a fantastic sitter. She took excellent care of our three cats, was responsible, and communicated effectively. She even watered some plants for me, which I greatly appreciated. We would definitely work with her again.”
About: I've been taking care of pets since elementary school. I grew up around animals. Currently I have a dog (Caira) and cat (Tevi). Tevi has a rare blood condition that needs monthly vet visits so the money from here will pay for that. (not contagious) I have also done mentorships and classes on animal behavior and training. I'm a stay at home mom so I have a lot of availability and have a very flexible schedule. It is easy to add pet care into my daily life. My cat and dog are very friendly. My dog was even used at doggy daycare to screen other dogs. I'm confident in animal behavior and training as well.
“Cooper was amazing with our dog. She was professional, prompt, communicative, and really cared. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a bit apprehensive. I felt comfortable with Cooper immediately and our dog loved her. Would absolutely book her again!”
About: I have always been around dogs (both big and small) and cats. I have also had a gecko and fish. I love playing and taking care of animals. I currently work full time but I am available after 4 pm. I always have Monday and Wednesdays off so I can help out anytime. I am so used to taking care of dogs that I can crate, feed, water, cuddle, walk, let outside and play. I will treat each and every pet as my own. I believe pets are family.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 9 years old and have always loved caring for animals. I have experience house sitting for owners with dogs, as well as providing care such as midday walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m active, dependable, and passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I enjoy spending time outdoors and giving dogs the exercise, attention, and affection they need. Caring for pets fits easily into my schedule because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and staying active. I’m happy to make time for walks, playtime, and making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I want to provide a safe and caring environment while giving every dog the attention, exercise, and patience they need.
“Theresa was fantastic, she took great care of our cats and was able to make our extremely nervous kitten feel comfortable, which was a relief! Day 1 they were comfortable asking her for scratches and treats. Will definitely book Theresa again.”
About: Hey there! My name is Heather and I am an avid dog lover and pet care professional. I work with all breeds, temperaments, and pets that require special accommodations. My client's dogs can never get enough of the attention I bring to them! I provide consistency, reliability, and thorough service to my clients. Starting as a Kennel Technician at the age of 15, to owning my own pet care business in the past, you can ensure your pets are in good hands. I am a stay at home Mom, with a 5 yr. old Cavapoo named Cooper. I’m starting my journey to get back into the pet care industry and would love to work with you! My schedule is fairly open with being a stay at home Mom, which gives me ample flexibility for dog walks, check-ins and overnight care. Please contact me for availability. Mornings and afternoons are when I am primarily available for walks, hikes, and check ins. Staying in your home, I will ensure to keep a regular schedule with your pet. Your home will be exactly as you left it and your pet will feel like you never left. I require all dogs to be on leash when in my care when out on walks. I will stick to your pets strict diet to ensure no negative digestive issues.
“Shannon is wonderful! She sent me updates & pictures during her drop in with my dogs! They loved having her with them midday this week! Will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve been a pet parent myself for 10 years, caring for my own dog while looking after multiple cats. I’ve looked after friends and families animals so I am very comfortable stepping into new environments. I’ve gained hands on experience with pets that require medication (including pills, liquids, injections, etc). I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior animals who require a little extra patience. I love meeting each pet where they’re at. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle session or an energetic walk, i’ll match your pets energy making sure they feel loved and happy. I'm a student with a pretty steady routine, so I have reliable blocks of time for pet care. On weekdays, I'm free in the late mornings and early afternoons I have practice on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays but I'm back home by 9:30 AM. Weekends are more open, I always know my schedule ahead of time and can plan around it. I'm rarely away for more than a few hours at a stretch. I plan my week around confirmed bookings and make sure your pets care never overlaps with something else. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable. I always leave the home clean and like to send updates (whether it’s a text or a photo) after visits so you know how things are going. If anything comes up (a change in behavior, a mess, or something out of the ordinary), I’ll let you know immediately. I treat every pet and home like i’d want mine to be treated.
About: Hello!! My name is Eden and I have had a love for all animals since I was little. I've grown up with Bulldogs my whole life and I now have my own cat Dickie! It is very important to me that pets, or any animals, are given the care that they need. I am able to take your pet for walks, groom them, check up on them, and make sure they get all the attention, love, and snacks! Pet care fits into my daily routine by filling my cat's bowl every morning, making sure he has plenty of water (especially with this summer heat), and keeping my eye on him while he plays outside. I have a car so I can easily come stop by to take your dog for a walk, play with your cat, and make sure they are fed as well as letting them outside to relieve themselves!
“Hayley watched our 18+ year old kitty while we were on vacation. Gave him his meds twice per day, fed him and gave him lots of love. We were very comfortable while on vacation knowing that he was in great hands. We will call upon Hayley again in the near future to take care of our baby (senior :) )”
About: I absolutely love dogs and any animal really, and have over 10 years of pet care experience. I can help with puppies in training and comfortable with senior pups and have some experience with administrating some medications. I will love and care for your pup(s) like my own! I currently work part time close to home making my schedule is very flexible as I am home most of the time. I’m available weekdays and most weekends. I have a very large fenced yard with plenty of grass. My house has a built in doggy door for those pups who can let themselves in and out as much as they’d like. (There is also a back door I’m happy to let them in and out too!) I have a 10 year old lab named Charlie who is very mild tempered and gets along with anyone. We love going on walks and playing in the backyard, so your pup will be well exercised and played with!

Kennedy watched my 3 dogs for a few days while I was out of town, including one that has stranger anxiety. All of them warmed up to her so quickly, including my anxious one, so I was very impressed! She sent updates during her stay and made me feel at ease about my babies. Would definitely book again!
I can tell my 14 year old baby Hope really enjoys your drop ins while we are out. The pictures and videos you send, Hope acts like she has known you for years. So calm and sweet to her. You already know what her favorite things are haha. Highly recommend and will continue to schedule. Thanks Lyndi!! 💜

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
