“Jessica was a wonderful sitter for our cats. She visited them when she said she would and spent time checking on both of them each visit. I will absolutely book Jessika again when we travel!”
“Whitney was amazing! She watched our bunny while we were out of town for a week, and he was so well cared for. I appreciate how thorough and caring she is, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Needed last minute help with potty break coverage while at work and Adam was great! Followed my super long (and likely overwhelming) instructions and my doggies were grateful for the visit!”
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.
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.
“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!”
“Shannon rules! My usual sitter canceled last minute. I’m so grateful Shannon was available and flexible during a holiday weekend. My kitties are my life and I don’t trust many people with them. Shannon is a sweet and trustworthy person. Thank you so much! ?”
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs and have been caring for them since I was a kid. I understand different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in my care. I treat every dog like my own and follow owner instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent I work night shifts, which allows me to be home and available during the day for walks, playtime, and supervision. I’m fully available all day Saturday and Monday, and I have flexible daytime availability throughout the week. Your dog won’t be left alone for long daytime hours, and I prioritize keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I provide a calm, structured environment and prioritize safety at all times. Dogs are always supervised indoors and taken outside on a secure leash for potty breaks and walks. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and crate routines if needed. I keep doors secured, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure your dog feels comfortable and well cared for during their stay.
“Mayne did such a fantastic job! Followed our instructions to a T, despite how overbearing they likely came across as. Showed such patience and kindness with our grumpy pup and I know they’re excited to see her again! Will definitely be booking again.”
“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 grew up taking care of my family dog, and now care for 2 cats of my own. I find myself offering to help care for friends' pets and enjoy it so much, I thought I'd broaden my scope. I have a rigid schedule on Monday and Tuesday, but I'm available before and after work. The rest of the week, my schedule opens up with more flexibility and I'm willing to work with your preferred routine I prefer to keep a consistent schedule with my pets, providing meals at the same time every day, and play time in the morning and evening. I currently live in a smaller space with 2 cats, so I prefer not to board pets in my home, but I love to take dogs out for walks or to play at the park.
“Alyssa was so great! I needed a last minute booking and she responded immediately. She was on time every day and very communicative. She did a great job of giving me a recap of each visit through the app! I would highly recommend Alyssa and will be using her again myself!”
“Heaven did two drop in visits for me and sent amazing updates! She is very friendly with a calming presence. She was able to come at odd hours which is so appreciated! She sent photos where I could tell the dogs were both very calm and happy. If I ever need her help again I won’t hesitate to reach out!”
About: While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve always loved animals and have hands on experience caring for pets of different ages, including a senior pet and a young kitten. Because of that, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, energy level, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and will treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, litter box care, or simply keeping them company. I also know how reassuring it is to get updates while you’re away, so I’m more than happy to send plenty of photos and check ins! Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I currently work Monday through Friday from 8:30–5:30, so I’m available for pet care after work and have open availability on weekends. As I build my pet-sitting schedule, I’m hoping to make pet care a bigger part of my weekly routine, which will allow me to offer even more flexibility and availability in the future. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that keeps your pet’s routine consistent and gives them the attention they deserve! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, whether they’re cats or dogs, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. As a longtime cat owner, I have experience caring for both younger and senior pets, including giving my senior cat medication when she’s sick and keeping up with regular vet visits for both of my cats. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, litter box care, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

Pet 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.
Whitney took such great care of our kitty. She has a real way with cats. Our cat is super needy but slow to warm up to new people. Whitney made friends the very first visit and was able to play and give loves and pets. Thank you Whitney for taking such good care of our baby.
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!! 💜
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!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sandy is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 per visit. 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.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sandy. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 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 .
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.
