“Amy watched our pup while we were in Europe and she was excellent. We got frequent photo updates, the house was spotless and we felt like Fred was so well taken care of. Thank you so much, Amy!”
“Anna is delightful and we are so glad to have found her. Our dogs were comfortable with her immediately She is responsible and a great communicator. She left our home in great shape- above and beyond Definitely 5 stars!”
“Samantha was so great! She was helpful and thoughtful taking care of things in our home based on situations that arose and used great common sense (a shockingly rare quality these days!). Our dog was happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book her again!”
“This was our first time using Jessica, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her, we felt comfortable and knew our dogs were in good hands. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and never made me feel like I was being a worry wart. She understood that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful and was always kind, responsive, and reassuring. Jessica took excellent care of our dogs, especially our French Bulldog, who requires extra attention in the Utah heat. She clearly took her responsibilities seriously, made sure they had plenty of potty and outdoor breaks, cleaned up after them, and paid close attention to their needs. She also took great care of our home, brought in our packages, and left everything just as we had hoped. We truly lucked out finding Jessica. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy Rover sitter.”
“I just had experience with Katie who stayed at the house and watched the pups! She is great and absolutely no complaints and the pups enjoyed her as well. Definitely recommend!!”
“Christina did a fantastic job watching Hank and Milo. She followed my instructions to a tee and I came back to a spotless house and very happy pups. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Michelle was fantastic! She is professional and provided multiple updates as she was attentive to my over active and needy doggo and moody kitty. Would recommend and hope to use for future needs.”
About: I have a deep love for animals and have a fair amount of knowledge and care from my own experience and research on how to care for them. I’d love to work with you to make sure your animals are taken care of and happy. And if your okay with it I will probably cuddle with them if they let me hahaha Im currently not working so I’m generally very free and available! Please reach out and I’m happy to see if we can work out the time frame! I have a sweet pug upstairs and unfenced and fenced area in the back yard. Lots of dog beds and area to eat and hangout and air conditioning. Depending on your dog I will customize what I can!
“She was patient with our youngest dog who managed to get very messy twice in our backyard and she took the time to get her all cleaned up despite watching our 3 dogs for the week. 3 dogs can be a handful and she did wonderful.”
“Meisha did a wonderful job with our pups! She house-sat for us for a few days. House looks good and the dogs are very happy! She was great about sending pictures and updates. Our dog is really high energy and nothing was destroyed so that says a lot! She was very responsible. Would definitely use her again!”
“Betty was awesome! She was very attentive to our dog and his needs. She sent us photos and updates every day, and adhered to our dog’s schedule and routine. She’s a trustworthy & responsible person, and we will definitely book her services again.”
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs through walking, in home sitting, while following routines that help our doggos feel safe. What sets me apart is my reliability, clear communication, and the care I take to understand each dog's individual needs, personality, and comfort level rather than treating visits as rushed check-ins. I intentionally structure my daily and weekly routine around pet care, allowing flexibility for walks, check-ins, and in home sitting while ensuring each dog receives reliable, unrushed attention. When caring for pets in a clients home, I treat both the pet and the space with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I take time to learn each dog's routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while away. Safety is always my top priority. I double check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I stay attentive during walks and potty breaks to avoid stressful or unsafe situations. I keep a calm, consistent energy so pets feel at ease, especially those who experience anxiety when their owners are away. I'm mindful of your home environment as well, I keep things clean, follow house rules closely, and leave your space just as I found it (or better). I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and can relax knowing they're in good hands. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel safe, cared for, and happy - and for you to feel confident trusting me in your home.
“Aubreeana was a last minute sit and took great care of my GSD and toy maltipoo! My gsd has reactivity issues to other dogs so I am always nervous trying out a new sitter but Aubreeana was very reassuring and followed all instructions, send me photo updates regularly, and everything went swell! Would absolutely love to have her sit for me again.”
“Christian is a great sitter and consummate professional. He was very responsive and would provide daily if not twice daily updates on how things were going. Would definitely recommend and use his services and experience again!”
About: I’ve taken care of puppies since I was 16 years old, I bathed them and trained them with easy commands such as sitting, lying down and giving the paw. Hi this is me Justine, I know that I look so young but I’m able to take care of your pet in whatever time and place that you need. I took care of pets before so I know how important it is to give your pet to another person but you can trust in me I’ll take care of your pet as if it were mine. I am a compassionate and dependable petsitter who provides personalized attention and affection to furry friends in the comfort of their own home. I’m also a student so this will be much helpful for me to can afford my studies. For me it is much better to be able to take care of your pet from the comfort of your home. In this way, your pet feels much safer in a place he knows and I have an easier time gaining his trust.
“Lori was great with my pups. She was able to provide wonderful care, attention and peace of mind. My dogs may even be sad for a few days to see her go! Everything went smoothly and I would use Lori again and reccomend her to other dog parents.”
“Callie was a hidden gem! We ran into a situation where both our trusted dog sitters were not available, one of them having a family emergency one week before our trip. By this point there were very few sitters available that met my criteria and little did I know that Callie had just come back onto Rover after a hiatus. Callie came over for a meet and greet and she was very sweet and had a very calm way about her. Callie listened really well, asked a lot of clarifying questions to make sure she didn’t just take any job but that the job she took was right for her as well. She took a lot of pride in ensuring she could meet what was being asked. I really appreciated this. We agreed to move forward finding the fit on both sides a good fit. I sent her my document 😂😬 on caring for our three dogs for 4 nights and she read it in advance! She lived up to every part of what she committed to, she took great care of them and kept me updated along the way. While this was an overnight in our home I would have no question about leaving my dogs with her (if my dogs got along with others), I would know they are in good hands. I literally cannot believe our timing was right in connecting, she is definitely someone we will ask to come back again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Jordan
We had Spencer house sit for our 4-year-old large-breed guardian pup, and he was fantastic! He kept us updated with regular messages and photos and was always quick to respond. He was patient and understanding of Anna's guardian-breed barking and gave her plenty of love and attention. He took wonderful care of both Anna and our home. We wouldn't hesitate to hire him again!
I’m so happy we found Kinzie! We requested pet care just a day in advance, and she was able to accommodate us. She took great care of our dogs, was very responsive, and incredibly kind throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care!
Camille was incredible! From the first day we met her to see if she’d be a good fit to watch our daisy Mae, we knew she’d be amazing to have watch not only our pup but our house as well. She communicated so well with picture updates and made sure to always check in. She left our house exactly how she found it. Our pup really seemed to like being around her as well!
Needed a last minute sitter & Gene came through! He had great questions at the meet & greet. During the stay he kept me updated & we were very surprised at the detailed notes left & experience he had with Grimm making us feel confident & happy with our sitter choice. We will absolutely book again. Highly recommend
Melisa has been fabulous! I really recommend her to watch your pet. Really nice to talk to, sends the cutest pictures and videos My Winston really loved her and snuggled with her every minute he got a chance to, Winston was one of her own and treated him like her own as well! I would recommend 100 stars for her! Thank you so much Melisa
Anne was amazing! She responded back immediately after I had booked her last minute. She was very attentive and affectionate with my dogs, plus she has the sweetest personality. She stayed in contact with me, sent pictures and updates. She is beyond 5 stars. I highly recommend her.
Kate did an amazing job watching our dogs while we were away! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly cared for them like they were her own. We came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pups and had total peace of mind the entire time thanks to her updates and photos. She went above and beyond, and we could tell our dogs absolutely loved her. We would 100% book with Kate again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in South Jordan on Rover is $50.04 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,812 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Jordan. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred South Jordan walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in South Jordan maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 South Jordan 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.

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.
