“Betty is always just absolutely the best. Spending so much time with the babies, taking photos, sending report cards, and being a great person. We feel lucky to have her in our life, and so do our dogs!”
“Michelle was the best sitter we could've asked for! We went on vacation to Europe for 2.5 weeks and she stayed in our home to look after our cat and dog. She took amazing care of both our pets and our home. We have a high maintenance (aka neurotic!) border collie and she handled all her quirks perfectly. We left quite detailed instructions and Michelle followed them to a tee. She was a really great communicator and kept us updated with info and pics every day (even taking into consideration the time difference!). We came home to two happy little pets and a spotless house. Can't recommend her enough!!!”
“Christina took great care of our dog, left the house clean, and communicated with us while we were gone. She was amazing and I’d definitely recommend her!!!”
“Tawny was so great with our dog, Hank! Took her on walks and was very attentive with her. He is an excellent communicator. Keeping us up to date before he arrived and while watching Hank. I would definitely book him again!”
“Alicia was super helpful in keeping my cat company while I was out of town. Her professionalism and competence gave me peace of mind while I had to be away from my pet!”
“I was very stressed about leaving my cat and dog with a sitter for the first time but Danielle eased all my stresses with updates and pictures every day. Our animals seemed comfortable and happy in all of the pictures. She left our house immaculate. When we had to make a last minute change to our plans, Danielle was very easy to work with to accommodate the change. She also responded to messages quickly. I would recommend Danielle to anyone and will definitely use her services again. Thank you, Danielle!!!!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Payton! They truly went above and beyond, giving updates, extra love and attention, and making me feel completely at ease while i was away. I came home to a happy, calm, and well cared for pup. I am incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with them again!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kimberly. We booked the week prior for an overnight so we could take a quick trip to CO for a concert. Kimberly was friendly & communicative the week leading up to the booking and checked in the evening before. She arrived at 6:30 am with such a warm energy and immediately won the pups over. Grimm seemed instantly attached to her! It was very sweet. I was a bit worried since it was our first time using Rover, & the first time leaving the boys with someone other than their grandparents. We felt comfortable with Kimberly right off the bat and we knew our boys were in good hands. I loved that she sent lots of photos & videos while we were away & let us know how well they were doing. She followed all care instructions perfectly. She even left us beautiful flowers she cut from her garden. I would 100% trust Kimberly to care for my furbabies again in the future. I feel blessed to have found and connected with such a good human. Thank you Kimberly! 💛🐾”
“Stephanie was great! She stayed at home with our crazy doggos and gave them all the attention they needed. Definitely gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Madison is WONDERFUL with the dogs. She does a great job giving attention to three attention-seeking dogs! It's so nice to leave and know your dogs are in great hands. Thanks Madison!”
“Jai was great with Willie! He kept us updated with pictures every day. It was clear when we got back that Willie was well taken care of. Jai watched Willie at our house and kept the house super clean, as if we never left! Thank you Jai, will not hesitate to book you again in the future.”
“Diana was such a pleasure to have in our home! She was so thoughtful and considerate. She sent pictures every day, and the dogs absolutely loved her. She took them for walks, they snuggled on the couch, she spent time with them outside, and when I got home, the house was absolutely spotless. I’m almost hesitant to leave such a glowing review because I want to make sure Diana is available the next time we need a sitter!”
“Caroline was great!! She took excellent care of my dogs! This was my first time with the house sitting service and I’m so glad it was with Caroline! She was great to communicate and send pics and my pups had a great time with her!!”
“Mara was wonderful with my dogs. She's incredibly sweet and they immediately loved her upon our meet and greet. She sent plenty of pictures and updates and went above and beyond. Highly recommend and will be booking with her again!”
“Alex is a life saver! She was such an amazing house-sitter for our slightly anxious dog Maggie. It was our first vacation away since we rescued her and Alex made us feel so comfortable leaving and knowing she would take care of everything. She really took the time to bond with Maggie, giving her a lot of care and attention, and we loved seeing the photo updates of her having so much fun while we were away. Alex was totally professional with the tasks of caring for Maggie and excellent with communication. You can also tell how much she cares about the job and we came home to a clean house and such a happy dog. We couldn't ask for more!”
“Mark took amazing care of our pets on our vacation. Sent very thorough reports and pictures that left me with so much peace of mind. One of our cats got in a fight while we were gone and he took care of him like it was his own cat. I will absolutely use him again and would 100% recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Taylorsville
We had a great experience with Kim. She watched our 3-month-old puppy in our home for almost two weeks and was absolutely wonderful. She also stayed longer for us when our second sitter canceled. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and even went above and beyond by giving our puppy a bath and brushing her teeth without us asking. She was communicative, helpful, adaptable, and professional, and was so understanding while we had floor remodeling going on. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our long trip and would have her watch our puppy again!
Tori and Nicole went above and beyond caring for my senior dog, Izzy, when she got sick a few days into my 10-day vacation. They picked up medications and extra food for her and spent some sleepless nights taking her outside, cleaning up after her, and giving her lots of extra cuddles. Knowing she was so well cared for while I was away gave me such peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for them!
If you're a first time Rover user or a worried pet parent, Michelle will put everything to ease! We had a last minute request for someone trustworthy to come watch our Mini Aussie who had been going through some anxiety issues after a recent medical scare – it was our first time leaving the house in almost three weeks so it was safe to say we were very selective on who'd be watching her. I totally understand now why Michelle has such high reviews and a handful of repeat clients (also she literally available within our last minute three hour request which was shocking). We felt so at ease when we were gone for the few hours – the questions she asked beforehand and the photos she sent during the visit were so helpful. I also think our dog picked up on her laid back yet attentive personality which our dog loved. Book Michelle!

Abby was patient with my nervous/anxious/reactive pup. Her care and consideration made the process of leaving on a trip less stressful. She got out with my dogs to antelope island and I got lots of photos of the dogs having fun! I got lots of photos and updates throughout my trip which I appreciated considering I was 2000 miles away! I would recommend and would be happy to book with her again :)
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Britt stayed overnight with our two dogs for six days and took amazing care of both our pups and our home. She treated our dogs like they were her own and kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond when our AC unexpectedly stopped working. She immediately let us know, and set up fans to keep our dogs comfortable until we got home. We were so grateful knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She left our home spotless, was incredibly reliable, spent lots of time playing with them and giving them exercise, and made the entire experience completely stress-free. We would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pets.
Eandra was INCREDIBLE with my pups. They loved her and were so comfortable with her. I felt confident that they were taken care of and honestly spoiled with Eandra watching them. I had a lot of hesitation choosing to do rover again, due to a not so great experience, and Eandra was empathetic to my concerns and put my nerves at ease. She also was clean and tidy guest! I would 100% book with her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Taylorsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Taylorsville on Rover is $38.85 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 2,835 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Taylorsville. 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 Taylorsville 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 Taylorsville 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 Taylorsville 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.
