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.
“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.”
“Spencer did a terrific job making sure my cat was fed and taken care of while I was away. He went above and beyond by giving her some extra food when my flight got delayed a day, so she would survive a day alone. Super Responsive and sent pics every day. Highly recommended!”
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.
“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.”
About: Pet friendly and love all kinds of animals. We are a home that loves any animal and our kids love having dogs around and show them so much love. Our kids are very well behaved around animals and get along with dogs very well. Someone is always home to watch and care for our furry friends. Love and care is always going to be available for your loved pets. Have a fenced in patio if needed and allow owners to bring their pets crates if they would like. Safety and security is at the top of my priorities to make sure your pet is cared for.
“Madeleine was so loving to our kitty, and she was good at communicating updates/questions/concerns when they came up. I do prefer tighter scheduling communication/appointments, but she was great for the things that mattered.”
“Afia stepped in when our first sitter went MIA after we had already left for our trip and we were so grateful!! Our pup loved her, she was incredibly communicative, and I had no worries at all. Would definitely book again.”
“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: 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.
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!
“Razan ta the best sitter I used so far. She went beyond the expectations for a drop-in. She took my dog for a walk during her visit. I really appreciate her professionalism and kind heart towards my dog and myself. I will definitely use her in the future.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Kristi took good care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation for two weeks. She was very professional in all her interactions with us. She was able to build a positive relationship with our dog which is not always easy for strangers. We will definitely book again. Thank you Kristi!”
“Joey is great. She notified me right away when we had a concerning gas smell in the house. Her first priority was to make sure the creatures were safe and try to help turn off the gas.”
“Jenny is amazing! She eased our minds during an out of town trip and came and checked on/played with/fed our dog Tilley twice a day like we asked, and was very consistent in the times she came! She left a note in Rover for us and also multiple photos of our dog to reassure us that we left her in great hands with Jenny! We will definitely recommend Jenny to everyone we know and will use her again in the future for our traveling needs! Thank you so much!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sandy City
Sarah did an amazing job with our dog while we were away! She was always on time, gave extremely thorough updates, and took plenty of pictures. Our dog is extremely nervous around new people. Sarah was so patient and caring that we could immediately tell that she was much more than just a babysitter. I am so grateful for her that we were able to travel stress free knowing our dog was in great hands the entire time. Sarah was our first rover experience, and we will only work with her going forward.
Lyndi has been a total God send for me and my boy Beans. She is professional and absolutely kind and considerate. My boy is very choosey with who he likes and he absolutely adores her! The videos and pictures from the visits are awesome. I can't wait to have her over again to watch and play with Beans on my next trip!
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.

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 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.
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 .

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 Meet & Greet .
