“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.”
“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!”
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.
“Alyssa was great!! Even though my dog is very shy, Alyssa took the time to have come out of her room and had her come outside. She’s very respectful and followed the instructions I left for her in order. She came to my house to check on Canela and made me feel my doggie was not alone. I really appreciate her for that and if I need to go out of town again and I can’t bring my doggie. I’ll call her again. She’s really good with pets 😌”
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.
“Edna took amazing care of my puppy! She took him on a walk and made sure he got a potty break and communicated very well. I will definitely book again if I need help with my puppy another day.”
About: I have a lot of experience with walking dogs as I volunteer at the humane society walking dogs. I have experience taking care of sick cats and elderly cats in whatever needs they have. I take care of my dog every day taking him on walks or playing with him. I go to the humane society 3 times a week either walking dogs, hanging out with cats, or working in the clinic I care for the pets as I would my own, with all the love I can give. Whether that is taking him on daily walks, chilling on the coach, playing fetch, or bringing home pup cups
“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.”
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.
“Eva was so great with our dog! She spent plenty of time with Lilah and was great with communication, always sharing pictures each visit. Would recommend booking Eva!”
“Alecia was awesome! She came over to meet Leo before taking care of him & we went for a short walk around the block. Leo is typically wary of new people but he accepted her good energy right away. Super communicative & easy going. Will book with her again!”
“London was delightful. She helped me out in a pinch when I had to go on a sudden work trip and I am forever grateful to have found her. She communicates often and really put my heart and mind at ease. She took great care of my kitties. I 💯 recommend and look forward to having her watch my boys again.”
“Kristi is always wonderful – my cats love her. She is very thorough, and leaves everything very clean. She sends me photos of her snuggling with my babies, and they interact with her in common ways. I will always choose her!”
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!
“Our dog can be reactive and Shannon handled it great! He barked a little when he first met her but she was calm and won him over. She did some of his favorite activities with him and provided updates.”
About: Growing up my mom brought home animals in need all the time. Whether it was helping a duck with one foot, or pet sitting 5 ferrets on top of the 5 we already had. I was definitely born into taking care of animals! Also I was able to help with my dog giving birth when I was in 5th grade! I just currently quit my job to start traveling with my boyfriend for his job. So I have so much time for myself, and definitely needing something to do! Pet care fits into my day to day life, when you need me to! At my home, our two cats are neighborhood cats so they come and go as they please. But our dogs are fenced in with a doggy door to the back yard!
“Lianna did a great job taking care of our kitty and was willing to make changes and extend the booking when we had a change of plans. She also helped out by watering our garden and keeping my plants from dying in the summer heat. Thanks, Lianna!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy City
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.
My son was unexpectedly required to work overtime and needed someone to walk and feed his dog on short notice. I reached out to Brooklyn, and she responded within five minutes. She kept us updated, sent pictures, and communicated clearly throughout the visit. I highly recommend Brooklyn and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.
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!
Afia started coming over in January and has been a wonderful addition to Lucky's welfare team. She was patient with the structured introductions he requires in order for him to allow new humans into his life, and continues to expand on his enrichment opportunities through their interactions and training with new food puzzles. Afia clearly cares about the well-being of dogs in her charge. I'd recommend her to anyone.

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 City 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.

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 City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
