“I recently adopted two 9yr-old shih tzus from the shelter - they are still learning manners and can be pretty grumpy about new things. When Baileigh came over, the boys were very happy to see her. Baileigh was very calm and patient and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay. I highly recommend Baileigh and will be happy to use her again!”
“Nicole took great care of my pups and my house! My dogs enjoyed playing and snuggling with her! Came home to a clean house and everything in order. It was so great to know they were in good hands and I didn't need to worry about them while I was away. Will use her again!”
“Cameron stayed at my place for an extended weekend to take care of my dog and cat. He was very communicative and sent pictures daily. When I came home, the house was clean and linens were even washed! The animals were very happy and well taken care of. I would not hesitate to use his services again!”
“Kimmie was so great! She stayed at our house for two weeks! My dog just loved her! She even made aramp for my dog to jump on the guest bed! Kimmie is amazing, you will love her!”
“Madison was AMAZING! When our flight was delayed and we weren't going to be able to make it home, Madison stepped up and came back to watch our girl for an additional night which was a LIFESAVER. Couldn't recommend Madison more! Already booked her for our next trip.”
“Zoe is the best for house sitting! She took care of Sparky so well. She stayed in communication as little or as much as we wanted. On our return home, she even offered to start the laundry for the bedding she slept on. 11/10 dogs would recommend her!!”
“We just got home and the 2 dogs and 1 cat were very happy to see us but not overly excited which tells me they were content and comfortable while we were away. Rin did a good job of responding to my texts and sending updates. This was our first time to use Rover. I feel good about the truth of reviews and more confident in using this in the future. We are pleased with Rinand would use her again.”
“Kennady was great! Sent lots of updates and pictures of our pups while we were away. She also left our house clean and well cared for. We would gladly book her again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and love caring for pets of all ages and breeds! I’ve cared for my parents’ Lab/Border Collie mix and many friends’ pets. I’m familiar with basic dog training and understand the exercise, patience, and attention pets need. I’d love to care for your furry friend! I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your furry friend plenty of love and attention. I have main-floor living and access to a shared fenced in neighborhood yard. When dog sitting I typically offer 1–3 walks per day, with potty and play breaks as often as every 30 minutes! I have a fenced in yard which is shared with my neighbors. Dogs are required to be on leash at all times, it’s perfect for a quick walk for a potty break and I live very close to a park which is perfect for playing. I cover my furniture with sheets so pets are welcomed on any furniture!
“Daisy cares for my three dogs with so much love. I usually have anxiety being gone from my dogs when i travel but never when Daisy is watching them. They have specific needs and she always meets them.”
About: My lifelong love for dogs has turned into years of hands-on pet sitting experience. I am the go-to sitter for my dad, cousins, neighbors, and friends. Through this, I have gained extensive experience managing different temperaments and sizes. I am fully comfortable with everything from high-energy Goldendoodles and Golden Retrievers to smaller, sensitive breeds like Pugs.Your dog will get highly attentive care here. My boyfriend works after noon shifts (varies around 10-3) and I work a 7-4 day job, so our schedules overlap just enough . Someone is almost always home, and pets are never left alone for more than 6 hours. Your pet will rarely be left alone during their stay! I work a traditional 9-to-5 day job, but my boyfriend (who lives with me) works night shifts. Because our schedules overlap so perfectly, someone is almost always home to provide potty breaks, feeding, and playtime. We guarantee that your pet will never be left alone for more than 4 hours at a time. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, safety is my top priority. I love going on walks and runs, so keeping dogs safely exercised is a natural part of my daily routine. I live right near a local park, which is perfect for controlled, leashed outdoor time and plenty of fresh air.
“Landon is a fantastic pet sitter. He came a day early for a meet and great and it was clear how seriously he takes the job. He asked a lot of important questions and listened very carefully to my instructions. He showed up right on time early in the morning, which I really appreciated. He will by my first choice for pet sitters going forward--definitely book him if he is free!”
“I am very grateful that Jessica cared for and hung with my senior pup, Sky, over the Holiday. She was responsive, reliable, and communicated very well. I received frequent pictures of Sky, who definitely looked like she was enjoying herself. Most importantly, I felt at ease that she was in good hands and getting lots of love while I was away. Will certainly book Jessica as a sitter again!”
“Alexa was great and able to step in last minute. Our dog can be a bit nervous with new people, but he did great with Alexa and we came home to a happy dog and a clean house.”
About: I've raised my dog Fulton, a pomeranian for 10 years, through the puppy stage and into his senior years. That's taught me how much routines, energy levels, and needs change over a dog's life, and how to adjust walks to match. What you can expect: On-time walks with a photo and update after every visit Routes suited to your dog's energy, from city parks to red rock trails Clear communication through the Rover app, start to finish I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, so check my calendar or send a message to book a Meet and Greet. I work for myself, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually fit walks in during the day, including midday breaks. I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, and I keep my Rover calendar current so you always know when I'm in your area. Walks start and end at your home. Before the first walk, we'll do a Meet and Greet so I can learn your dog's routine, leash habits, and any triggers. On every walk I: -Use your dog's leash and harness, double-checked before we head out -Avoid busy roads and adjust for heat, cold, and trail conditions -Keep your dog away from unfamiliar dogs unless you've said it's okay -Lock up behind me and send a photo and update when we're done
“Karsten was awesome. We booked him for a house sitting for 5 days while we were away and we couldn’t have been more happy! He helped with taking the garbage out on garbage day, the house was clean, and all our pets were super happy! Would definitely rebook him in the future.”
“Veronica was amazing! She watched our dogs for 10 days and took them for hikes most days. She stayed in our home, took great care of it while she was there, and left it in great shape. Would highly recommend and book her again.”
“Gaby is a gem! She did SO well with our sweet senior pup, going above and beyond to give her lots of snuggles and attention, sending us frequent updates and cute photos, and taking great care of our house too. She cares deeply about animals and we are grateful she cares for ours too! She came for meet and greets, asked great questions, and noted down all the important details about our dog including medications etc.. We would strongly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to have her back over to care for our dog again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Woods Cross is $47
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woods Cross
Ben was amazing! He watched our dogs, Forty and Beethoven, and we couldn't be happier with his care. From the very beginning, his communication was wonderful, and he was so friendly and accommodating to their specific needs. He took the time to properly introduce himself and make sure both dogs felt completely comfortable. Throughout the day, he sent great picture updates that gave us total peace of mind. He was also wonderfully flexible with hours, and it was so clear how genuinely loving and attentive he is toward animals. If you need a top-tier dog sitter, Ben is the absolute best. Five stars all around!
Rebecca stayed with my dogs for 2 weeks and communicated with me the whole time. She sent pictures of them happy and taken care of so I wouldn’t worry about them. She didn’t hesitate to ask questions if she had any. My house was clean and my dogs were happy. She also did not leave them alone for long. We would happily use her again for house and pet sitting.
Kimmie is the best. We can always rely on her to take care of our pet and our home. She does a great job communicating and sends pictures often. Our dog needed medication administered and Kimmie ensured the dosage was accurate and ensured our pet took it.
Pavel is out go-to anytime we go out of town! We have him stay out our house and it eliminates any anxiety that we would ever have about our home and our pets. He always does an great job and that gives us peace of mind when we need to be away. We would highly recommend!
Caroline was fantastic with our Golden Retriever and Border Collie this weekend! She clearly has a great way with dogs both of ours came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dog loving sitter!”
Nichole is a top notch dog sitter. She stayed with our older greyhound in our home for five nights. She provided updates and was excellent at communicating. Our dog was happy and well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely have Nichole stay with him again!
Alex did a wonderful job watching our two babies on a last minute request. He was clean and tidy, even went to the extent of removing his bed sheets (which was very thoughtful) and making sure the trash was taken out when he was finished with his stay. He made sure our pup got all of his medications and was a great house guest.
Tiffany was the best kitty babysitter! She sent us so many photos and videos of our babies while we were gone. One of my cats got scared of the fireworks and Tiffany sat in our unfinished basement with her to help her feel safe. She kept our home clean and did exactly as we asked. The cats were happy when we arrived back home. We will definitely work with Tiffany again in the future!
Catrine “Cat” was everything I could have asked for. My regular sitter cancelled a month before my vacation and I found Cat on here. We did a meet and greet and my boys were comfortable with her, which isn’t always the case. They can be selective. Leading up to the booking Cat reached out to offer to come over the morning before I left to make sure she had all the information she needed, which I appreciated. While away she kept in daily contact with text and pictures assuring me the boys were safe, well taken care of and having a great time. She was concerned my one dog was looking a bit skinny because I had changed his food and asked if take could feed him more, for her to notice and ask was a great feeling knowing she was paying attention to them. My other boys takes medication and she had no problem giving him his “pill pocket” twice a day. My dogs have a walker and she texted me commenting on how happy the boys seemed to be with Cat. She was respectful of my home and it was neat and tidy and the bed sheets and towels were washed and folded, above and beyond. If you want to leave your animals in caring, loving hands then Cat is your person. She will definitely be my go to for future sitting during my vacations.

The average cost of House Sitting in Woods Cross is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $53 per night.

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 Woods Cross 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 Woods Cross 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 Woods Cross 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
