“Ally and her dogs were awesome! She sent lots of updates and her house was also very pet friendly with a huge fenced backyard. My pup came back happy and tired from all the playing, we’re looking forward to seeing her and her dogs again :)”
“🐾 🐾 So happy with Elizabeth and her wonderful family! They took amazing care of our dog, Banksy, while we were on vacation. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. Elizabeth kept us updated throughout our trip with sweet messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Banksy looked so happy and relaxed—we could tell he was treated like one of their own. Their home is warm, welcoming, and clearly pet-friendly. We’re incredibly grateful for their kindness and care, and we’d definitely contact them again in the future. Highly recommended! 🐾🐾”
“Alyssa was so wonderful with our dogs. She helped by administering meds, she sent photos, and she kept me updated throughout their stay. We will definitely use her again!”
“Dominique was the perfect person to watch our 1-year-old golden doodle over the weekend! We’d never left her with a stranger or boarding service before, so I knew it was time to do my homework. I started by researching traditional boarding facilities, but just about every one had horror stories in their reviews. That’s when I decided to give Rover another look. Dominique came up as the first search result and I immediately noticed her covered patio. Then I read her profile. Her experience working with dogs, CPR certification, and overall attention to detail stood out. But what really sealed the deal for me was reading about her process to help prevent bloat. That kind of care and thoughtfulness told me she was the right choice. All weekend, Dominique sent us photos, videos, and updates even though I warned her we’d be at a remote harmonica festival with no service. When we finally got signal, it was such a relief to see how happy and at ease our pup was. If you’re on the fence: yes, the pictures speak for themselves, but let me add this Dominique isn’t just a casual Rover user. She runs a truly professional boarding business. Your dog isn’t just being watched; they’re being cared for.”
“Grecia was amazing and clearly had much experience with dog behavior. My girl is a bit overreactive with strangers and Grecia immediately assessed this and knew how to handle the situation effectively calming my dog and building up her initial trust. I explained that she also has some reactivity issues with new dogs until she warms up to them which she noted and apparently worked on because she was able to get my dog to walk along with hers. I even noticed that my Mei Mei was not going crazy when confronted with a pair of loose dogs at the park on my first walk back with her. Lastly, she was able to take this booking last minute as I had unplanned lengthy work hours for a couple of days and so that in of it self was so much help. I very much appreciate her ability to work with me and the awesome experience she gave. Thank you!”
“Kristine was absolutely amazing with Jack! He loved her big backyard and playing with the smaller dogs. She was so great with him and we’re SO grateful!! We will definitely be using her again!!!”
“Lisa was fantastic! She gave our cute dog more attention than he probably gets in our busy home. We would definitely use her again when we go out of town. Thanks, Lisa!”
“Brent & Liza are so awesome. They are very nice and cared a lot for our dog. They sent us a few pictures everyday. Their dog buck was very friendly and a good friend to our dog. Our dog was so happy there and came home very tired from playing.”
“Tumaye took great care of my dog Bjorn while I was away on vacation! He sent photo and video updates which was nice to see what they were doing and where they were going. My dog came back happier than I left him which is always a good sign he had fun!!”
“Jordan came through for me when my sitter had to cancel on me at the last minute. My dog was well taken care of and seemed very happy when I came to pick her up. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Nicole! She took amazing care of our dog for a full week, and leaving was completely stress-free thanks to her. She sent daily photos and updates that kept us smiling and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pup was so happy and well-loved the entire time. We will definitely be reaching out to Nicole again in the future!”
“Elisabeth (Betsy) was great taking care of our dog for a few days this week. She was very responsive communicating back and forth, and really open about what we could expect. She sent a lot of messages and pictures of walks, playing, and caring for our dog. She really seemed to enjoy him, and her dog was very friendly and a playful. I am sure my dog had a wonderful time.”
“Tatiana and her husband Alejandro were amazing dog sitters for our pup. Our dog is a sweet boy but very anxious and leery of strangers. They made him feel right at home and he was comfortable with them in record time. I got constant updates and pictures of them taking him on outings and they have a sweet golden that helped our dog feel at home instantly. I would 100% book with Tatiana again and recommend her whole heartedly for anyone looking for a loving temporary home for their dogs.”
“Kellie did an amazing job caring for my dog, Rue! I really appreciated receiving photos while I was away. It was wonderful to see Rue had such a fun time playing in the backyard and getting along so well with their dog, Noodle. I will definitely be trusting Kellie with dog sitting again in the future!”
“Meredith and Stewart were incredible hosts for our Sadie. She was calm when we dropped her off as well as when we picked her up. Meredith and Stewart were very warm and pleasant and were very generous with drop off and pick up times. Sadie will be back to stay with Meredith again. Highly recommend.”
“Amber is so amazing and we will be sitting with her again. She gave us many pictures of our dog. As well as frequent updates with what the dogs were doing/ and how they were doing. Leaving your dog with a sitter is always stressful but Amber took that stress away because we knew our puppy was getting taken care of. Thank you so much Amber!!”
“Sarah was amazing! I had a family emergency going on and she was quick to help watch my cat. She sent many photos and updates. And made sure stormy had all she needed! If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy and genuinely cares This is the right person!”

Highly recommend! Elizabeth took wonderful care of my dog, sent regular photo and video updates, and had no problem giving her antibiotics. She was also so kind and accommodating when my travel plans changed unexpectedly. I would absolutely book with Elizabeth again!
Madeline & Jacob are fantastic, taking excellent care of our golden retriever to the point he did not race to get in our car when we picked him up, preferring instead to come back and hang with Jacob while we said our goodbyes! We highly recommend them for your pet.
We loved having Maddie stay at Alyssa's home! She was quick to respond and kept us updated with great photos and notes throughout the whole stay. It was clear Maddie loved being there and was in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better host. We highly recommend Alyssa!
I had a great experience with Christine and Edwin! Christine was very responsive in getting Popi’s stay planned. Upon arrival, Christine met us and was very warm and reassuring! She kept me updated throughout Popi’s stay, and Popi looked very happy the whole time! Pick up was easy and I had the chance to meet Edwin and Hooch! We would definitely book them again without hesitation!
Tsokyi was so wonderful! She was quick to respond, knows her stuff, and has a great set up for a pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. After meeting her and seeing how she interacted with my dog I felt so at ease leaving him in her hands, and it was clear when I picked him up that he had a blast! 10/10 would book again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of South Salt Lake sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which South Salt Lake landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their South Salt Lake 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 South Salt Lake.
Tip: 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 South Salt Lake 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.
