About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have been caring for pets professionally for about 5 years now and have experience with both cats and dogs. I am happy to provide personalized care and plenty of attention. I do work a full time job therefore I may not be the right match for those looking for more potty breaks frequently throughout the day. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm and pet friendly environment where both dogs and cats can feel safe. I’m attentive to each pets individual, routine, personality and needs.
“We had such a great experience with Christina! Throughout the stay, we received regular updates, photos, and little notes that showed just how well our dog was being looked after. It was clear our dog was happy, relaxed, and getting lots of attention, and love. We especially appreciated the reliability and professionalism, everything was handled exactly as discussed, and even a few extra thoughtful touches went a long way. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for dog made all the difference. We would absolutely recommend Christina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I always feel at ease knowing my pets are in good hands with Elena. Elena is intelligent, caring, and professional. She has provided the best experience for me and my cats since joining rover!”
“Myla took great care of our cat while we celebrated our wedding and honeymoon. This was our first time leaving him at our home with daily drop ins, and she was very communicative and dependable the whole time, even keeping us notified about issues with our utilities that happened while we were gone. Our cat is happy and healthy, and she made sure to give him his medication every day. We’d recommend Myla to anyone who needs cat sitting.”
“Sheila took great care of my pup! She was on time gave extra cuddles and sent cute pics. When I got home I could definitely tell she wasn’t lacking for attention. Thanks so much for caring for Piper so well! Will definitely be booking with Sheila again.”
“Brigette did an excellent job making Brelden feel comfortable and taken care of. We feel really comfortable with her care and I think he had an easier time with her watching him than other caretakers in the past.”
“Gigi was awesome! She was responsive and poactive. My cat is a bit shy and needs her space, Gigi followed all of the directions and gave me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“My dogs had a great time with Tyson! Lots of pictures sent and thorough updates on my guys, while we were away for the weekend. I would highly recommend Tyson to another family for your pet sitting needs.”
“Jami is amazing and heaven sent. My sassy pups took to her right away. It’s been a huge relief to know I have been able to count on her while I’m away at work. Thanks Jami!!!”
“Tess is awesome!!! She took the best care of my two social cats while I was away. She left detailed updates on the report cards and sent the funniest photos of the boys playing with their favorite toy. She was also very kind and brought in the mail and watered my plants. Truly a top notch sitter with wonderful communication and updates. We are definitely going to use her again for our cat sitting needs!”
“Zuko is sooo happy after all his walks with Solveig, she was awesome. She sent me so many pictures and went above and beyond - walking him multiple miles, hanging out with him while I was out of town, and playing violin with him :) he’s the most relaxed I’ve seen him post-trip and definitely had a good time.”
“Sydney was great and provided detailed check-ins on time with pictures which gave us peace of mind that are guys were in good hands while we were on vacation”
“Madison picked up our last minute request to watch our cats since we got engaged and extended our trip to the other coast at the last minute. She was super sweet, prompt, and followed instructions perfectly. I will definitely hire Madison again if she is available. Thanks Madison!! :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Salt Lake
Evelynn B. Watched my two kitties while I traveled to Spain. She was truly wonderful and easy to talk with and detailed (she took notes during the meet and greet) and I left printed instructions the best I could. I came back and the cat boxes were clean and the kitties we happy! I know cats can be a tad tricky esp with one of my kitties being feral and the other one older with some digestive issues. Having a wonderful professional pet sitted makes a huge difference! Thank you Evelynn for your loving care! I am very grateful for your time/efforts. Happy to be reunited with my kitties again! 😻😻
Madison was everything I could have hoped for watching my babies! She left me feeling confident in her and sent ample check in photos. When I get home from a trip, usually my cats seem more agitated but after Madison watched them, they were quite calm and content when I get home. I would absolutely trust Madison for future trips! Lucky to have found her!
This was our second time booking with Paris and she was great again! She’s reliable, communicative, and takes such good care of all four of our cats. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while we’re away. We’ll definitely continue booking with her! 🐱🤍
This was our first experience working with Sarah while we were away for ~1 week. She did an outstanding job, she was very responsive and communicated when our instructions weren’t clear. We’ve never come home to a cleaner house than this last time. We have two ragdoll cats that shed a lot, our place was immaculate when we returned home. She clearly went above and beyond. Our cats were happy and well cared for. Our packages were all in the house too. Will definitely reach out to Sarah as our first choice next time we are away.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,493 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Salt Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a South Salt Lake stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
