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!
About: I’ve taken care of family dogs for over five years and I truly take every dog in as my own! I am very active so I’m a huge fan of walks with pups! I will make sure dogs always feel at home with me. Pet care can be naturally woven into my routine. I prioritize consistency, comfort, and care, whether it’s a midday walk, playing at home, or simply spending quality time outdoors. Your pet’s well-being fits seamlessly into my lifestyle, and I take pride in treating every dog like they’re part of my family. I prioritize routine and comfort, caring for pets in their home or my home just as you would. I follow their schedules closely, keep them calm and engaged, and treat your space with the utmost respect. I will follow any and all instructions given for both care in my home and in yours.
“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!”
“Erin was great with our cat Rodger. She is kind, caring and attentive. We showed her how we give him injections of a medication and she did a great job doing it, which was very important to us. She also played and brushed him and he liked her very much. She kept us updated and texted his pictures. We would definitely hire her again.”
“Madison is an amazing cat sitter! My cat is extremely shy and rarely lets anyone pet her, but Madison was able to earn her trust and even get some pets in. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and cleaning up, and she went above and beyond by vacuuming my home. I could not be happier with her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”

I take a lot of time out of my day to work out and would love taking dogs on run/walks. I do not have a fenced yard, but I have leashes treats a crate and everything necessary for dog care. The yard is also very large so dogs will have lots of area to run around in.
“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!”
“She was suchhhhh a big help. Our boy a pitbull with anxiety and for most he can be quite intimidating but they were über responsive, caring, and thoughtful throughout our whole time away from our dog. I cannot emphasize enough what a great job they did helping us care for our fur baby. Would recommend to anyone and everyone looking for walker/sitter”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy
Sarah is a dog wailer. Our dog is picky and she warmed up to Sarah with no problems. Sarah went beyond and took Lilly for walks even though we did not pay her. Sarah was awestruck keeping us updated with text and pictures. Made us not worry while on vacation. Will use her again.
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!! 💜

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.
