About: I have had dogs my whole life. Moose is my sidekick and he and I would love to care for your loved one for you! I am available on the weekends. My work schedule is changing soon so that availability will increase once that change happens. Message me and we may be able to work something out. I live in an apartment but Moose and I love to go for long walks and love to go to the local dog parks nearby!!
“Bridgette is professional, detailed, and as dependable as it gets. I love working with her and try to book her as often as possible. Thank you, Bridgette, for being so great with our pup.”


“Sheila is the best! She is trustworthy and provided peace of mind that our pup was in good hands. We loved all the daily updates and photos from her. Highly recommend using Sheila!”

About: Whether shy or excitable, I'm a calming presence that most pets I've met are drawn to. I have 7+ years dog walking and house sitting experience, with all ages and types ranging from puppies still learning to seniors who need extra care. I have experience with basic training and administering medicine. You can rely on me for consistent walks and drop ins, and for tidy, respectful house sits. This is my full time job, so I'm available often and my schedule is flexible. I'll have plenty of time to dedicate to your pup or kitty, the longest I'm away for other appointments is typically up to 4-6 hours. My clients know that they'll come home to a clean and tidy house, with little to no sign of my being there other than happy pets!
“Just so sweet and patient with our dogs and willing to go above and beyond to help them become better socialized. We are so grateful for Michelle and would recommend to anyone with any dog.”

“Sylvia was amazing! She spent real time with my three dogs and they loved her. They got to be in their own home and happily shared their toys with her. Plus, she even hung out with the cats who usually hide (and are indoor/outdoor). The pictures each day were great as well. Thank you so much!”

About: I have been passionate about pets my whole life. I am often asked by friends and family to dog sit and take care of their pets when they are away. I treat the dogs I sit like my own and give them the care I would to my own dogs. My dogs are used to having new pet friends when I do dog sit and get along well with them. I am experienced with pets that have special needs, and I am happy to care for fur-babies of all ages and needs. You will have peace of mind that your pet is cared for and loved. I work 4 10 hours days so I will be available on the whole weekend to care for pets. I often spend time walking my dogs and playing with them at the park. They get plenty of play time in and out of the house. I will follow any directions needed to care for your pet at home. Ensuring no escapes is priority number 1! If I am pet sitting I have a big back yard and lots of parks nearby.
“Rachel is the best! She is so attentive to my cats and making sure they have the right food, their meds, and making sure their space is clean and inviting for them. They love when she checks in on them when I’m out of town, and I can rest easy knowing they are being taken care of by a trusted animal lover. My dog loves her walks with Rachel, and is given the love and exercise she needs!”

About: I have been around dogs & cats for most of my life! I have experience with reactive dogs and those that need a little more attention. I am more than willing to learn how I can best keep your pet happy and healthy while you’re away! I currently work a hybrid schedule - 8 hour shifts Monday through Friday in office and at home. You can rest assured that your pets have my full attention whenever I am with them. I will treat your pets as my own while they are in my care. You can trust that you will come back to happy & healthy pets!

“McKenna provided excellent care for my two cats and was great about providing updates and pictures while I was away. Everything went very well and I would be happy to book her again. Highly recommend her services for pet sitting!”

About: I live an active lifestyle and love nothing more than a pet buddy to join walks and hikes. I had been a dog aunt for over 10 years and often am the “go to” pet sitter amongst friends and family as they know I am reliable, responsible and a true lover of pets! I’d love to meet your fur babies and give them all the love and cuddles! I work a full time job during the week which makes me mainly available on weekends for walks, visits, home stays or boarding, with the exception of a weekday afternoon walk if in a close vicinity. Note: My roommate has 2 female healers, both friendly with other dogs. Throughout the summer, they will be in and out of town, so I try to schedule boarding times for when they are gone to make things easier. On the off chance that they are in town when you’ve requested a boarding we can discuss if we feel it’s a good fit. Thank you! I believe pets need enrichment and attention to feel loved, just like us humans! I love giving pets, cuddles and making sure they get their daily exercise. When I am watching a pet for an extended period of time, they come first!
“Celine was absolutely spectacular. She’s a wonderful communicator who gets back to you quickly and professionally. And I can 100% tell my cat loved having her. She made my vacation experience a lot less stressful and I hope to be able to hire her again sometime.”

About: I’ve had fur babies my entire life, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Being a devoted pet parent myself, I truly understand that pets aren’t “just animals” — they’re family. I know every pet has their own unique personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether they’re playful and outgoing or shy and reserved, I take the time to meet them exactly where they are. Patience, consistency, and genuine affection are at the core of my care. I promise to love your babies like my own and make the experience positive and stress-free for everyone involved. While you’re away, you can relax knowing your pet is safe, understood, and truly cared for. My schedule is very flexible, so making time for your fur baby is never a problem. I’m able to provide dependable care and plenty of love whenever it’s needed. Your pet’s safety is always my number one priority. I’m attentive, responsible, and mindful of each pet’s individual needs to ensure they feel secure and comfortable at all times. I also have a very sweet, small, and friendly dog who loves making new friends! If your baby enjoys companionship and playtime, they’ll have a gentle buddy to keep them company. Of course, I always prioritize proper introductions and will respect your pet’s comfort level.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and currently own both a Husky with a seizure disorder and a senior Malamute with arthritis. Caring for special needs and senior dogs has given me hands-on experience with medications, mobility support, routines, and recognizing behavioral changes quickly. I have also personally trained my own dogs and am comfortable working with high-energy breeds, strong personalities, and dogs that need extra patience and structure. I am currently a full-time student and work from home doing freelance projects, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, playtime, and attention. I am available for drop-ins and dog walks throughout the week, overnight boarding in my home (I do have two large breed dogs but they get along with others), and outings to local parks or dog parks like Tanner Park for socialization and exercise. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, triggers, and energy level so I can provide consistent care with as little stress as possible. In my home, dogs are supervised, exercised appropriately, and given a calm environment with plenty of attention, play, and structure. I also have a fully fenced yard with a dog door so dogs have safe access to outdoor time and potty breaks throughout the day. I am experienced with medications, mobility support, and monitoring behavioral changes due to caring for both a special needs Husky and a senior Malamute.
“Chris took care of my bunny on short notice, which I really appreciate! He was able to come over same day to grab a key/go over Bij’s routine. He was very communicative and left me detailed messages after his visits, I would ask him to watch my pet again!”

“Jillian took care of our car Beans while we were away for a few nights. The pictures showed Beans was immediately comfortable with Jillian. We loved knowing Beans was well taken care of!”

“Emily was great and helped us while one of us were out of town and we needed an extra hand with our girl! She was on time,communicative and professional! I highly recommend her! ❤️ thank you em!!”

South Salt Lake dog parents share their Rover experiences
We are so grateful for Christine! My husband and I now both work full time and we needed help with caring for Mika during the day. Christin has been amazing; she's timely, responsible, and Mika thoroughly adores her. It’s reassuring to know Mika is in such great care and we would highly recommend Christine for any services needed!

Bridgette was phenominal! She was a life savor who was thankfully available last minute to drop in on my wild puppy. She came over for meal time and play time, plus gave my kitty a little attention too. She was amazing handling my pup’s wild energy and gave me plenty of photos and videos showing off how much fun they had together. 10/10 recommend Bridgette. 🙂

Michelle is great. She is definitely a star sitter. She is very responsive and communicative, which makes booking dog walks so much easier. She met my hound dog, Sonny, and did really well with him. I have really enjoyed working with her and am hoping to keep her in our network!
