Elizabeth is the best!”

About: I grew up in a household with many cats. I became the primary caretaker for 3 cats since I was about 10 years old. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to take care of their cats consistently and with care. I have lots of experience playing with cats and entertaining, as well as providing services such as individualized feeding routines, litter box maintenance, and other grooming and health needs. Cats can be quirky and everyone is unique, and I love taking the time to get to know them and ensure comfortability.
“Leila did such an amazing job with my four cats and all their personalities! She left really detailed notes and sent lots of pictures. She visited over the holidays and was very communicative. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with her and they liked her right away when we did the meet and greet. I'll absolutely be booking her again when I need a sitter!”
“Elena was great with drop in visits to my senior cat! She was very communicative and always sent loads of pictures which I adored. She made sure to ask the right questions and have a contingency plan if anything were to happen during my absence. Definitely recommend her!”
“Gaby did an amazing job caring for Bobby while we were out of town! She sent some wonderful updates and pictures. We appreciate that Gaby played with Bobby and was engaged during her visits! Thank you, Gaby! We look forward to booking you again!”
“Sylvia is a fantastic sitter and did a great job with my cats! She went above and beyond what I asked for in helping them, and seemed to really connect with my cats in a way most strangers cannot. This was my first time using Rover so I was initially nervous, but seeing how great a sitter Sylvia is really gave me great peace-of-mind while I was on vacation. Thanks a bunch!”
“Brooklyn was so great. My kitty hides and does not usually come out for anyone except people he knows, but he came out for Brooklyn every single day! They cuddled and hung out. My cat got lots of pets and loves and of course food & water refills. I was seriously shocked my cat bonded with her so easily. HIGHLY recommend Brooklyn!”
“Keslee is very nice. She took good care of my 19-yr old cat, Ernie. She sent pictures & videos & kept me informed about him. I'd definitely request her again.”
“Casey was absolutely wonderful - I cannot recommend her more highly! She was so kind, attentive, and compassionate while cat sitting for us. She sent wonderful photos and updates throughout that made me so glad that our cat was in her capable hands. I could tell that she gave my cat such great attention, playing with her and engaging her when she was being shy. She sent great photos that showed how much my cat loved getting pets from her and it made me frel at ease to see that my cat was getting such love and care while I was away. Casey went above and beyond throughout the entire experience, including navigating a situation that arose with our pet incredibly skillfully, compassionately, and generously. I would choose Casey again in a heartbeat and recommend her in the highest - I would trust her deeply with the care of any animal of mine!”
“Bridgette was fantastic! She was attentive and professional. Each visit she wrote detailed notes and included pictures. I trusted her and will definitely be booking her for my next trip.”
“Milo was super happy with Katherine, i will definitely book her to visit him on my next trip out of town! She was also super flexible with the key exchange, both dropping them off and picking them up, appreciate your help!!”
“Tyson was so attentive and went above and beyond for our doggies. He was always active and made us feel so comfortable leaving them with him. We got constant updates with the cutest pictures. We are so grateful to have found Tyson and our pups are too.”
“Madison is an amazing cat sitter! My cat is extremely shy and rarely lets anyone pet her, but Madison was able to earn her trust and even get some pets in. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and cleaning up, and she went above and beyond by vacuuming my home. I could not be happier with her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
“Maeve was wonderful. She took great care of our cat, har outstanding communication, was proactive with caring for our home and incredibly responsive and responsible. We returned home to a happy cat.”

About: My husband, Alejandro, and I have been caring for our own dog, Nala, for the past 6 years and 7 months. We completely understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Caring for her has given us hands-on experience with daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure she feels safe, comfortable, and loved. We are patient, responsible, and caring people who genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. We love working as a team to care for pets, making sure they always have company, attention, and plenty of love. We know that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and we are happy to adapt to their individual needs to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Our goal is to care for every dog as if they were our own, giving them a safe environment so you can have complete peace of mind. I work 100% remotely from home, which allows me to be with the dogs throughout the day. They won’t be left alone for long periods, and I’ll be able to give them plenty of attention, potty breaks, and companionship. My schedule is flexible and my husband also works from home most of the days, so this allows us to follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special care they may need. We understand how important consistency is for pets, and we’ll do our best to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. We love in a small, clean, pet-friendly apartment in a quiet neighborhood. While we don’t have a yard, we live less than 5 minutes from Sugar House Park, where we take our own dog every day for long walks, exercise, and plenty of time to explore. Any dog staying with us will enjoy regular walks, outdoor time, and lots of attention. We believe that supervised walks and enrichment are a great way to keep dogs happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated, and we’ll make sure your pup gets the exercise and care they need while they’re with us.
“Our dog Ira loved spending the day at Hillary’s house. When I dropped of Ira, I could tell the she was attentive to his needs and her dog interacted well with him (even though he is much smaller). I will certainly use Hillary again for dog sitting!”
“Jean was so kind to let us book a last-minute daycare appointment, which we greatly appreciated. She took great care of our Jojo-doggy. She has a great setup for taking care of fur babies, which she seems to enjoy doing. We highly recommend her!”
“I am so incredibly pleased with Maritza's care of my 3 month old puppy. I was admittedly nervous leaving him for the first time with someone else, but she sent me tons of pictures throughout the day, took him on MULTIPLE WALKS and gave me a full report on how he did when I picked him up. Maritza is now my go-to sitter!”
About: Hi, I’m Jacky! My love for animals began at a young age. I grew up on a farm, so I have been around animals of all types since I was a baby. There has never been a time where we have had less than 5 dogs at our home.🐶 I have had countless pets and memories that come with each, so I know how much parents love their fur babies and want them to stay safe and happy! I have 2 fur babies of my own named Sadie and Zoey! While I finish school, they are in good hands back home.🏡 As a high schooler, I was a vet technician. In this role I fed, watered, and provided medical care for both dogs and cats. I also bathed dogs of all sizes and clipped their nails.🩺 While in this role, I also maintained the deep care that any owner would hope for while their pet is away from them. I have helped dog sit for family members and friends when they’re away from home. I can send picture and updates as needed! I look forward to connecting!✨ I’m currently a full-time university student, however, I only attend school 2x a week. I have more open availability for August and then I will have a more structured schedule come September, but I can provide flexibility and consistent communication to collaborate on a plan for your pet! I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s routine. I want to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for inside and outside of their home. Parents can know their pet is in reliable, professional, and safe hands.
“Alyssa is awesome. She’s super friendly, communicative and trustworthy. She was sending us pictures throughout the day. It was our first time separated from our dog for so long and it went very smoothly! Sugi is going back in two days :-)”
“Holly was so awesome and accommodating to take my dog at such short notice. She really saved the day when my work schedule changed quickly. I really appreciate her.”
“Keslee took Sasha in last minute and was extremely accommodating due to some unexpected delays!! She was amazing and would definitely recommend her to everyone!! 🐕💖💕”
“Ellen accepted a last-minute request and took wonderful care of my dog, Magpie. Magpie came home happy as could be, and Ellen sent the cutest photos of her stay. She clearly made herself right at home, sleeping on all the soft surfaces she could find and playing board games with the family. Thank you, Ellen! So grateful.”
“Tracey is awesome! We rescued a sweet and shy girl last year. When we reached out to Tracey, she was very patient and understanding. During the meet-and-greet, she and her pack warmly welcomed our shy girl and Tracey gave us a tour of her house and yard. By the end of the meet-and-greet, our girl was trying to play with all of the dogs which was a great sign. When it came to the first dog sitting day, Tracey sent pictures and updates on a regular basis. We were very assured that our girl was in great hands. When we picked her up the next day, Tracey said that she played a lot with her pack, so she was very tired the rest of the evening, which is super awesome for us! Hopefully, with time, our shy girl will eagerly anticipate going to Tracey's. I highly recommend Tracey as a dog sitter. She has great knowledge on dog behavior and can address it to create a warm and comforting environment. Thank you!”
About: I grew up on a small farm with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have experience taking care of large and small pets, as well as many cats or dogs at a time. I am experienced at providing services such as individualized feeding and bathroom routines, and other grooming and healthcare needs. My mother is also a veterinarian so I got to spend a lot of time at the vet hanging out with many different pets. I live an active lifestyle and can help meet the play and exercise needs of dogs. Each pet is unique and I love getting to know them individually to ensure comfort. I am a graduate from the university of Utah, currently working on applying to grad school. I work remotely so I have plenty of free time to take care of pets and provide needed services. I live in a house with 3 roommates and a big backyard, so I can have pets over but not usually for extended periods of time. The best thing is for me to meet your pets in their home to reduce stress and ensure comfort. I am very good at handling all sorts of behaviors and following directions to a T. I can accommodate the needs of you and your furry friends.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for years and truly love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member because I have four pets myself. I’ll provide dependable care, lots of attention, and regular updates with photos for your peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own and can’t wait to meet yours! I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, medication, or simply companionship, I’ll be there to make sure they feel safe and loved. As a lifelong dog owner with over 15 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I’m committed to treating every animal as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. I have a fenced yard and four dogs for your pets to play with. All dogs are good with other dogs, and I am available to pick up pets free of charge. I also take my dogs out daily to a dog park or on a hike, sometimes twice a day. This option is available to any dogs I pet sit within the owners comfortability. I ensure each pet gets one on one attention throughout the day. Care and love is the focus of my pet sitting style.
“McKenzie has just started walking my dog. She has been great with her. She’s great with Communication, patience, kindness, and going the extra mile. My girl loves her. I can’t recommend McKenzie enough!”
“Jackalyn is awesome. Communicates great trustworthy and takes my pup on a nice long walk everyday when im at work. She goes above and beyond! Just in the past two weeks she had to fight off another dog that tried to bite my dog while she was walking him and also picked up the trash that my dog got into while I was away. Highly recommend!!”
About: I am currently training to become a registered nurse and have 6 years of clinical experience! While my caregiving experience is mostly with humans, I have a deep love for animals. My healthcare experience has trained me to be dependable, detail oriented, and calm under pressure. I also understand the importance of routine, so I will carefully follow instructions to best care for your 4 legged family member :). I am not currently working while in school so my schedule is extremely flexible for pet care! My schedule does vary slightly week to week but I am organized and will keep my availability updated. At this time, I can provide pet care through drop in visits and walks! My goal will always be to uphold your pet’s normal routine and keep them (and you!) as stress-free as possible. Feeding, walking, cleaning up accidents, watching for behavior or health changes and sending photos/updates are all part of my quality care!

“Jacob is incredible! Always reliable and quick to respond. I love that I always get photos on the walks and that his pup gets to join! Highly recommended!”
“David was very flexible and responsive, and responsible with his walks. We really appreciated several schedule changes that he accommodated. We would definitely have David watch our pup again!”
“Sadie always has a great time with Sheila! Since I'm gone 12 hours a day, it feels good knowing that I can depend on Sheila to help take care of my dog. She was very thorough and asked good questions during our first meeting, and lets me know far in advance if she's going to be out of town.”
“Keslee was available to walk our dogs last minute (we requested the night before) she responded quickly and communicated well. She did a great job with our three crazy pups.”
About: I have loved dogs and puppies since before I could walk. I was the main caretaker of a 4 year old dog since he was a puppy before I moved to college, and now that I’ve graduated I want to be able to care for dogs again! I absolutely love the outdoors, including going on walks or hikes and parks. I'm very energetic, hard working, and punctual! I'll try to get back as soon as I can on any sitter requests. Feel free to let me know any special requests with your dog, I'm pretty flexible.
“Eric is awesome. He admitted that he was newer to Rover but made up for it with extra effort and dedication. I appreciate the time that he took with my doggo and kept me updated on how things went. I highly recommend Eric and will continue to be a repeat customer of his for as long as he is available. Thank you Eric!”
About: I have 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dog, which has given me a strong understanding of the patience, responsibility, and attention pets need throughout every stage of life. Caring for my senior Yorkie has taught me the importance of recognizing each dog’s individual needs, routines, and personality. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including senior and anxious dogs who may need a little extra patience and reassurance. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or simply providing companionship, I will treat your pet with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have availability during weekdays and enjoy building my schedule around providing reliable walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. I’m able to give each dog my full attention and make sure they receive the exercise, companionship, and care they need. I also understand the importance of consistency and following each pet’s routine, whether that includes regular walks, feeding schedules, or simply extra patience and reassurance. I provide care in my clients’ homes by following each pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and preferences so I can provide personalized attention. During drop-in visits and walks, I will provide exercise, companionship, fresh water, feeding if needed, and any care instructions provided by the owner. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, and I strive to make each visit a positive and stress-free experience.
“Tyson is fantastic and incredibly accommodating. It takes my fur balls a moment to warm up, but by the second walk, he's already got it all figured out.”
About: I’ve always loved animals! I’m not allowed to have my own while I’m renting but I enjoy playing and getting to know all that I get to meet! I am currently a pilot working on my hours! I get to make my own schedule doing that so I have plenty of time to add taking care of animals into the mix. Keeping the animals schedule consistent is how I like to keep them safe and also keeping a good eye on them since they are unfamiliar with me.

We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog and felt completely confident in the care she received. Would highly recommend them and would book again without hesitation.”
