“Angela was wonderful with pup, Scout! Since he’s only 9 months old, I was a little nervous about leaving him, but Angela immediately put me at ease with her great communication and daily photos. She kept Scout on his normal routine and continued with his training, which I really appreciated. Scout came home extremely happy, freshly washed, and with the cutest custom made bag for all his goodies! It was clear he was very well cared for and loved while we were away. I highly recommend Angela and will absolutely be using her again anytime we travel and can’t take Scout with us!”
“First time using a dog sitter on this app, will definitely be using Shaun again. He was great with communication, very accommodating, and my dog was super comfortable with him.”
“Conrad is amazing! We were looking for someone to watch our dog for a week. We saw his bio and instantly felt good about him and decided to reach out. He responded right away! Every time I reached out, there was an instant response. He gave us daily updates, catered to our dog’s needs, and even washed her bedding for us! Our dog is usually stressed after being watched, but I’ve noticed that after picking her up this time, she is doing better than she normally does. She loved her time there and we had zero worries while we were away. Our expectations were surpassed! We will definitely be using Conrad in the future.”
“I was a little nervous about leaving my dog since she went blind but Krisanne and Gaston took excellent and loving care of her! I had updates, photos and videos every day. My dog was walked everyday and they followed all instructions. Highly recommend. They are trustworthy and so nice!”
“We were extremely pleased with Holly. She kept us well-informed as to how Charlie was doing and was constantly sending pictures which meant a lot to us. This was our first time using Rover and it was a positive experience. I would highly recommend Holly to anyone in the future, thank you rover for providing good people to sit our dogs.”
“Savana and Carter were awesome! They took such good care of Sully! They sent us so many pictures, cuddled him, and took him on walks! Sully also had so much fun playing with their dog! We would 100% recommend them and will definitely use them again!”
“Jennifer was very good at making me and my pup feel comfortable. I have a very high energy dog who came home exhausted and happy. I loved that Jennifer was flexible and I could drop off and pick up at just about anytime.”
“Stacy was AMAZING!!! I can’t think of a better person to watch my dog. She even sent pictures updating me throughout his whole stay. My dog was so happy when I picked him up and so grateful to have found her.”
“This is our first experience having Lucy boarded with Chonda and her husband Chad. Turn out to be a very positive experience!! Beside regular feedings, they also helped with giving her medication for her joint. We were also given photos updates daily. Lucy came home clean and happy. Thanks for doing a great job!!”
“Cynthia was amazing. She kept us updated and sent pictures everyday even did a Halloween themed photo shoot of our dog. Hercules came home happy and stress free. Looking forward to using Cynthia again soon.”
“We are so grateful to Chanelle and her wonderful family for taking such amazing care of our dog, Teddy. From the moment we left him with them, we felt completely at ease. They were incredibly kind, loving, and attentive, and treated Teddy like one of their own. We truly appreciated the regular updates and the many photos they shared, which made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. It was clear Teddy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“We had an amazing experience with Linda! She kept us updated and sent pictures/videos the whole time we were gone! She was very understanding when weather and traffic were not on our side on the way back home! It’s so nice knowing your pup is taken care of while you’re gone! I know our dog appreciates not having to be cooped up in a car when we travel! Definitely use Linda for your boarding needs!!”
“Thank you Tamee for taking such good care of Chase. I’m sure he had the best time. It’s nice to know he has a home away from home with all those extra snuggles . I highly recommend Tamee and her family. Thank you”
“Amazing experience! I was so not prepared well and they handled everything like true professionals! The kids are so sweet and made the time for the dogs fun and memorable I’m sure!”
“Seriously the best! I boarded my 4 month puppy I’ve only had for 3 weeks, and she was amazing!! I was nervous with how my puppy would do as she’s still learning all the things, and Luna handled her like a pro 😁 She kept me updated all day long and responded to any message I sent right away, will definitely book with her again!!”
“Very pleasant experience, great communication during our dogs’ stay and our dogs were happy and received a lot of attention from the family throughout their stay. Will definitely book again on our next trip”
“Kelly was absolutely amazing with our dog Jump. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs. She was warm, welcoming, and incredibly caring throughout the entire stay. Her dog, Shelby, is just as sweet. Kelly went above and beyond! She kept Jump active, gave her plenty of attention, and… lots of treats! Jump was definitely spoiled in the best way. Kelly was also very flexible and accommodating (for when we came back from doing the Narrows in Zion), which made everything so easy for us. We truly trusted her completely while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found Kelly and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to care for their pet.”
“Sheila did such a great job watching my sweet puppy. She responded to my questions and requests in a timely manner and was so sweet and gentle with my dog. She also sent pictures and gave updates while I was gone. I will definitely call on Shiela again!”
“Very attentive to my boy Maximus. Sent me videos and pictures and I loved that he was walked everyday! I would definitely use her services again. Max was happy to have so much attention!”
“My fur babies seemed to enjoy their stay. For my one baby it was her first time being away for more then 1 night and Amy seemed to make her feel comfortable which was comforting to me as I was worried she may be very upset. Amy had to deal with not only my dogs but then a hail storm to boot that I can only imagine caused a bit of stress amongst the fur babies. I highly recommend Amy and will use her again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Shem home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Shem.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Shem sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in UT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
