About: I've gravitated towards dogs my entire life. I've either been playing with them outside, letting them sit on my lap or just cuddling during a movie since I was a child. I own one dog, and we spend a lot of time with my boyfriend's two dogs. My work schedule recently gave me a little bit more free time, and I'd like to use that to help other dog owners and to get to know more pups! My flexibility changes per day, so please read this to make sure I can take care of your needs -- I am available Mondays after 6PM, Wednesdays anytime before 5PM, anytime on Thursdays and Fridays. I am capable of walking a dog as long as they need, where it's most beneficial for them. I can adjust my care routine for the dog based on their needs! And I am more than willing to schedule a meetup with the owner present before a service.
“Lyndi was awesome. She sent me lots of photos and videos after each visit. My cats get very stressed when I leave and they seemed so much better when I came home from this trip after Lyndi spent great quality time with them. I greatly appreciate it and will definitely use her again!”
“Mabel is absolutely the best dog sitter I have ever worked with. She goes above and beyond for my two dogs. She is consistent with her updates and photos, and is quick to update me if anything out of the ordinary happens. My two boys get a little nervous when we leave, but now it seems like they are excited to hang out with Mabel. I cannot recommend her enough, she really is the best!”
“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.”
“Michelle was great with our cats! They really enjoyed their time with her and put us at peace if mind they would be taken care of while we were gone. Will certainly be using again in the future!!”
“Stevie was great! First of all, she was super responsive with messages which was incredibly appreciated with a last minute need. She took great care of my girls and sent lots of updates and photos, even refilling their water bowls without being asked after a long fetch session on a hot day :) I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Amazing with my cats, they absolutely love her. Even the shy one that hides from everyone. She makes sure to take time to play and entertain them. And is very communicative and responsive about letting you know how things are going.”
“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!!”
“Eva is great with our anxious pup. She’s flexible with last minute schedule changes and that’s very helpful. Ginger loves her weekly visits and her little walks around the neighborhood.”
“Zanubia was super communicative and took good care of our 3 cats. She kept us up to date on which ones she saw (we have 2 that regularly hide with new people) and took cute photos of the ones she saw. Would use again and would recommend!”
“Laynee is a fantastic sitter. She was so kind and communicative while we were away this week. She sent me pictures every day and I know my cat was well taken care of. Will definitely be using her service again!”
“We had never used a dog sitter before and Alyssa was so great. We met before our vacation for a meet and greet which put our nerves at ease. We have a medically complex dog and Alyssa was very thorough with following her mediation schedule. She sent pictures at every stop in visit and answered texts promptly. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“The very best! I will definitely use her again. She was kind enough to do a meet & greet the nite b4. I felt so comfortable and relaxed knowing my Desi was in the safest of care. ❤️”

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!
Meggie was great with our puppy! She let him out on time, played with him, and even sent us a cute photo! He definitely gained a new friend! I had forgotten to tell her to put him back in his crate but she did it anyways, which was relieving to us to know he wasn’t left wandering around the house. It’s great to know he was in good hands while we were out. We’ll definitely book her again!
Meisha has watched Zion (black lab) and Moose (cat) a number of times and has been incredible each and every time! She sends lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciate as someone who has trouble leaving my fur babies behind for a trip. This most recent visit, I reached out last minute because my pup had been stung by a bee and I had to go into work that night. I wasn’t comfortable leaving her alone for my entire shift and all of my friends were out of town for the holiday weekend and unavailable. Meisha was so kind and came by a few times throughout the night to hang out with Zion and Moose. The absolute kindest and best sitter to work with! Really couldn’t recommend her enough.

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. 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.
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.

- 96% 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.
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.
