“Oakley was amazing! She went above and beyond doing check-ins on my cat (bringing in packages, rolling trash/recycling bins back to the house, etc.). I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Our dogs love him and he always sends photos and communicates!! He’s very flexible with last minute bookings. My dog is picky with men but he’s always excited when Trevor comes by for a visit.”

“Sophie has been an absolute blessing. When life throws curveballs, and I need last-minute help with my dog, she’s there—no questions asked. Her reliability during my husband’s deployment has been my saving grace. If you’re looking for a dog walker who’s reliable, professional, trustworthy, and compassionate, Sophie’s your gal.”
About: I have loved and taken care of dogs for 8 years now. I am a proud owner of two dogs: Chewy, an 8 year old shorkie, and Cudi, an energetic 2 year old min-schnauzer. Raising them from puppies mean I have firsthand experience managing different energy levels, temperaments, feeding schedules, and daily exercise needs. While I am new to professional pet sitting, I promise to treat your pets with the exact same dedicated care and attention that I give to my own dogs every single day. I'm currently home for the summer from college in the bay area, so dog sitting is something that I could easily do full time. I take care of my two dogs every day, taking them on walks, feeding them, playing with them, and keeping them groomed. I give my dogs endless attention, consistently train them, take them to the dog park at least once a week, I love to take them on walks or just chill with them if they are more of a inside dog.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Not a day has gone by that I've never been around a pet. I even take care of my friend's pets at college when I can! Pet care fits perfectly into my summer routine! I’m free to spend time with your pets, whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just giving them some love and attention. It’s the ideal way for me to enjoy my summer while taking care of your furry friends! I prioritize safety and trust by ensuring a calm, pet-friendly environment. Whether in your home or mine, I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they feel loved and safe while you’re away.
“Kelly did a great job with my dog, she played with him and she was good at communication. She followed all my instructions well and sent updates during each visit!”
“Jaina is absolutely amazing. This is the second time that she has cared for my cats and they LOVE her. I would definitely recommend Jaina to anyone who wants to ensure their pets are cared for.”
About: I love animals. I have been caring for them for years and find joy in making sure they are happy. It is my first priority to care for your pet in the way you prefer. I am punctual and excited to meet new pets that I can care for. I’m an independent contractor which means I get to create my schedule. Luckily for me, this means I can pick up different side hustles at whatever times I want. I already do cardio everyday by walking so this would fit perfectly into my routine. Whatever rules or expectations the owner wants, I will take with great care, caution, and intention. The safety of your pet and the respect of your home is of utmost importance to me.
“Alecia was very responsive and gave us peace of mind while caring for our puppy, who needed extra supervision and attention at his age. We appreciated the photos and updates!”
“Sami is awesome! We ended up just giving her a key to our apartment and would ask her frequently and often with short notice to come by and take our dog Rey out if we would be away for several hours, which was a huge help. She was great with Rey and always played with her and was very attentive to her needs.”
About: I, with the help of my 3 kids and husband, have fostered animals through the Humane Society of Utah several times, simply because we LOVE animals and my children have BEGGED for animals to care for! I grew up with dogs and cats. We really enjoy both dogs and cats! I had a small dog (Yorkie) for 12 years. When my dog was a puppy I took him to a dog training school where I learned how to handle him, get him to mind, sit, walk on a leash, and behave around other dogs and people. I also learned how to do his grooming/teeth care. He was my little companion for 12 years but he passed away in 2020. We have no other pets right now. I have watched friends'/family's pets several times while they were on trips. I'm comfortable administering medication to animals and taking care of senior animals, and those who need time/space to warm up to us and their new environment. For nervous animals, we take it slow and give them space. I love figuring out what makes your pet happy and doing that for them. I'm a stay-at-home mom with 3 children. I often go on a walk in the morning for a hour. Your dog would be a welcome addition! I'm available on most weekdays and weekends. If I take care of your pet, I may run errands or run my kids to activities but will return home within a few hours. I usually spend most of the day at home. Your pet will have a lot of attention and love and won’t be left alone for long stretches of time. We love to care for animals, but we love to have fun with them!! We love taking dogs on walks, playing fetch, and making obstacle courses (nothing dangerous, haha) for them in the fenced backyard. We like cuddling with pets and giving them food/water and treats. (If allowed by the owner.) We love to see animals happy, healthy, and having fun. My children are sweet, good-natured, and excited to have animals to love and care for. I teach them that sometimes animals need to take breaks and rest, like people. And other times they are ready to play and get exercise. I am always attentive to my children and the animals in our care. Dogs, if they prefer, can be in our fenced backyard during the day. My children will love to play fetch with your dog, or include your dog in imaginative play. Or if the dog prefers to be near me, I will let them follow me around the house during the day, or stay on a dog bed in our main family room. I can easily crate a dog if needed as well. At night, if the dog/cat prefers it, and we feel comfortable as well, your pet can curl up and sleep on a bed with a family member at night. I would keep fresh water, food, and a dog/cat bed out at all times. (Unless instructed otherwise by the owner on feeding.) At night, if it is a good fit for the dog, I would put the dog in our large bathroom on the main floor at night with their food/water and dog bed. They would be in there from 11 pm until 7:30 am. I would let them outside for potty breaks each morning first thing and throughout the day. Cats would be able to play and lounge around the main family room during the day. I would keep kitty litter, food, and water in our large bathroom, which they would have access to throughout the day. At night I would keep the cat in the large bathroom on their cat bed or towels.
“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.”
“Anika was an amazing pet sitter. She took such wonderful care of our cat. She came daily to feed her, play with her, and clean her litterbox. Anika was extremely communicative, and even let me know that my cat had an accident. She even took a picture of it and cleaned it up so well that there was no sign of it when we came home. She even offered to brush our cat and went above and beyond. Anika is caring, kind, and attentive. I will definitely hire her again in the future!”
“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!!”
“Ashlie was super responsive and flexible with a last minute drop in request for our dogs and we so appreciate it! The dogs loved her and we will definitely be using her again for future sitting needs!”

I have booked with Caroline multiple times for my two cats. I am the type to always worry about my pets while I’m away, but her experience, knowledge, and communication helps put me at ease! Even on my longest trips, I know they’re always well taken care of! Thank you Caroline!
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!
Evelyn did a great job with my blind lab. We moved into a new house one week before I was leaving, and my dog would not go down the stairs into the back yard. Evelyn worked with her 3x per day to get her to the yard, and when I got back my dog was easily going up and down the stairs. This was a life saver!!! Very happy doggy, very happy me! I would give 100 stars if I could.
After working with you twice, we really wanted to write you a special note to say how much we appreciate you. You’ve been so reliable and thoughtful, and your updates always gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Even when we didn’t reply, we always read your messages, and they truly made our lives easier by giving us one less thing to worry about. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of our pets — we feel very lucky to have found you!
Jordane was very punctual, took great car of our cat. Always made sure we had daily communication and pictures and was very trustworthy with our residence. Played with our cat and took great care of here needs. I would highly recommend Jordane for sitter care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sandy on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,375 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:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
