“Traylor & Jason were so so good with our Tank while we were out of town! Their patience, knowledge, and attention to his extra need for space due to recent changes was absolutely the best. They moved at his pace and ensured his confidence and comfort. Lots of updates and photos helped us too while we were away. We will be calling on them again for sure. Thank y’all SO much for such good care of him!”
“Once again Kerry did amazing and had lots of patience with our overly protective and stubborn English mastiff and no boundaries kitty. Thank you Kerry! So thankful you continue the best!”
“Haylie was so sweet and and kind caring for our dog. She kept us connected while we were away by sending pics and updates. She was great at communicating and a pleasure to work with.”
“Bailey was the sweetest thing and we were very grateful she could accommodate us through the weekend. She was very responsive every time we reached out via text and we appreciate her meeting us in advance to introduce the pups to her.”
“Jayd and Ecko are seriously amazing! They updated me many times through out the days they watched my boy Jaxsun. He was a bit unsure with them at first but warmed up and was well taken care of. I highly recommend these two. I can’t thank them enough for tending to my pup! 10/10 😊”
About: I have over 8 years of pet-sitting experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes for family and friends. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and building a bond with them so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for pets with special dietary needs, administering extra care for sick cats and dogs, and working with shy, anxious, energetic, and senior pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m currently an undergraduate student studying Chemical Engineering at the University of Utah. Since I have the summer off from classes, my schedule is very flexible, giving me plenty of time to provide your pets with the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. My availability is wide open until the fall semester begins on August 24, so I can easily accommodate weekdays, weekends, and last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. If I’m staying in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect that I treat my own. I’ll keep your home clean and tidy, follow all household instructions, and make sure it’s secure while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. My home is also a safe, dog-friendly environment for boarding. It has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, as well as two levels that provide plenty of space to relax and explore. I no longer have any dogs of my own, so your pet will receive my full attention in a calm environment without needing to adjust to resident pets. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll treat them like a member of my own family and provide the love, attention, and care they deserve.
About: I grew up with dogs since I was about 4! I have a big family with lots of aunts and uncles that rely on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone on trips. I love getting to know pets with all different personalities. I work 8-5 five days a week with rotating days. I go straight back to your home after work and am able to spend the rest of the night with your pets. I have a lunch in the middle of the work day I can check on the pets depending on distance. I am easy to reach outside of sleeping hours and can give any updates needed. I keep a close eye on your pets and keep in touch if anything seems out of the ordinary with them to take the best action.
“Aubrey is so amazing! She sent so many pictures and little check in messages just to let me know how everything was going. Her and Oliver seemed to really have an amazing few days together. I came home to a very happy dog and a clean home!☺️”
“Couldn’t be more pleased. Candace was very attentive to our pets, her communication is great! I loved getting detailed updates throughout the day and you can tell she genuinely cares about taking care of your furbabies! I definitely felt at ease with her looking after our dog and cat!”
“Jess is amazing! Super responsive, punctual, and most importantly provided loving and thoughtful in-home care for my older Staffy mix, Mabel. Mabel suffers right now from separation anxiety, and Jess put her (and me!) at ease during her stay in my home. Very respectful, kind, and an obvious dog-lover of all breeds. Recommend highly!”
About: I have grown up my whole life around dogs and have a dog of my own now. I have experience with dogs of all different ages and sizes and look forward to meeting your pup! I have a very flexible/changing schedule and am willing to work with whatever you and your pet need! I do some videography work, so the schedule isn’t the same everyday, but I can be very flexible. I will be sure to follow whatever instructions are best for your pup. Coming to your home for drop in visits or taking them out of the house for walks! I am comfortable crating your dog if that’s what you prefer!
“We have never left our pets for this long before so we were a bit nervous beforehand. Everything went great! We returned home to happy, well cared for pets. Thank you!!!!!”
“Ashley took great care of our 2 dogs. She send updates with pictures and answered any questions I had. The house looked just like I left it. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“Sophie was a wonderful sitter to our 2 old pups! She made sure they were fed and taken out. She had to give medicine to one of our dogs with each meal and she was great at making sure it was all done how they are used to it. She cleaned up after herself and anytime I had a question she responded promptly. I would absolutely hire Sophie again as a dog sitter!!”
“Emma did an amazing job watching my dogs. She was available last minute, a great communicator, and spent a ton of time with my dogs! She took great care of my house as well. Highly recommend!!”
“Zoe has been an amazing sitter! We get daily updates and pictures and when we get back from our trips our home is spotless. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and are so so happy to have someone we can trust to watch our pets!”
“Lexi came to stay with my two boys last weekend and did a great job! I have a Malinois with no concept of personal space and a geriatric dog that has difficulty going up the two flights of stairs to my apartment and she handled both amazingly! I got tons of photos during her stay and when I got home the boys were happy and healthy! 🙌🏼”
“Kyle was the best with handling our 3 girls! We are so thankful for him! He is detail oriented and also takes care of your dogs as if they were his own! We are soo thankful and enjoyed all the videos and pictures he sent us! I”

We contracted with Kerry to housesit with our 14.5 year old senior gal. Our last vacation was about eight years ago and we were very anxious about finding someone who would care for her with as much support as she’s used to receiving. Upon doing a meet & greet with Kerry, our fears were put to rest. After introducing himself, he immediately sat on the ground with our girl & waited patiently for her to approach him. He asked questions about her personality, habits, schedule, meals, etc while letting her get to know him. Between the meet & greet and our scheduled housesitting, they had several “walking dates” and soon grew familiar with each other. While we were out of town, Kerry sent photos and updates about walks, morning & evening routines, mealtimes, and he asked questions when necessary to ensure her needs and care were fully met. For anything that was a little new or unfamiliar, he took his time with her, giving her space & kindness to become comfortable with the activity. He also treated our home with respect. We’re so happy to have found Kerry! We would definitely recommend him for care, walks, housesitting for your furry family members. We’ll for sure work with him again.
Marcellene and her husband did wonderfully with our small zoo of dogs and cats, including a senior dog that needed medication and an overanxious dog. We met them in advance at the meet and greet and were pleased with their open communication. We received pictures and updates throughout the stay, multiple times a day, which was very important to us. They were adaptable and actively tried to be helpful with all of our requests. We came home to a clean house and happy, healthy animals. We also booked them separately for a last minute drop in to take our dogs in the backyard and they were super accommodating. We are very thankful.
We were a little nervous about leaving our two spoiled pups with someone new but Sami absolutely exceeded every expectation! This is her first time watching our dogs, and she took such wonderful care of them. She cuddled them, played with them, let Eden stay outside as long as she wanted, which is her favorite thing in the world and spoiled them exactly the way we do. We came home to happy, relaxed, and well loved dogs. You could tell they felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. Sami is thoughtful, communicative, and clearly a true dog lover. We felt completely knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely be booking her again for future trips! Thank you so much for giving our furry kids the best weekend ever! Highly highly recommend.❤️

FAQs for House Sitting - South Ogden
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in South Ogden on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,707 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Ogden. 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 Ogden 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 Ogden 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 Ogden 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.
