“Trena was amazing she knew that I was in desperate need of a dogsitter due to medical issues. Previous person (not through rover) bailed last minute. I was nervous, scared. I wasnt sure how I could manage Hercules he hates cars gets car sick. I was dreading it. But Trena came and saved me. She took care of my pups and wasn't afraid. Trena you're a godsend!!! Thank you. I hope you can also say my pups although huge and mean looking are nice. I hope we can work together again.”
“Tressa is an extraordinary and superstar house/dog sitter! I'm so glad that we found someone as patient, sweet and professional to help out with our dog Chicky while we were out of town. Our pup has some reactivity issues with new people, especially in our home, and Tressa was incredibly understanding and gentle while taking the time to come over and get to know Chicky before our trip. Tressa had no problem understanding the special needs of Chicky, and after a day of us being gone, they had built trust together and were quickly becoming best buds, which was surprising to us as Chicky usually takes longer to warm up to a new person. This is testament to Tressa's care and ability to really understand the nuances of our dog, and Chicky trusted her right away (wow, still amazing to us!). Tressa is also a wonderful person and sent us tons of updates while we were gone, which warmed our hearts knowing that Chicky had made a new friend for life. Our house was immaculate when we returned. I truly believe Tressa is the best house/dog sitter in the Bozeman/Belgrade area - highly recommend!”
“Britney was wonderful! Very responsive and communicated (with the best photos!) throughout the time she house-sat for us. She was professional, tidy and the pups enjoyed the time with her. We're thrilled with Britney and can't wait to have her sit for us again soon!”
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful. Both my pets dog and cat were right at home with her and her fury babies. She took away any stress I had in leaving my pets for a vacation. I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone needing fabulous care for their pets.”
“Beginning to end Hannah made everything easy and felt comfortable with her immediate. I was confident she would take good care of are of my golden and communication was responsive”
“Rylee took great care of our pups on a last minute trip. She was flexible with our timing and was great at communicating with us. We look forward to her watching our pups again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 15 years and love what I do! I have also owned cats, dogs and many other animals of my own. I have experience with puppies, kittens and also senior care. I provide walking, drop in and sitting care I currently work Monday-Friday during the day which makes me available for any and all weekend/weeknight care needs! I am also available to stay in your home overnight for pets with a greater need for care. When caring for your pets, I emphasize keeping you in the loop. I like to provide updates/pictures to ease your mind while you enjoy your time away from home.
“Everything seemed to have gone well. Whitney met us in person before sitting for Marlin and came again the day prior to make sure she had all the information needed and to get a lay of the land. She sent photos of marlin. Although we did not set expectations prior, in the future we would like more frequent updates. We would hire her again.”
“Lilli kept our dog for a week at our house. She did an amazing job. Gave our doggo lots of exercise and companionship. We came back to a happy dog and a clean house. I have no hesitations in recommending her!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and deep love for animals. I’ve trained my golden retriever for bird hunting, which highlights my ability to handle and train dogs with specific goals in mind. Growing up around English bulldogs has given me valuable insight into their unique care needs due to health complications. I’m also a strong communicator, ensuring clear and open connections with both pets and their owners. Above all, I’m at my best when I’m spending time with animals, and my genuine passion for their well-being drives me to provide the best care possible. My schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to offer weekend boarding and drop-in visits on most weekdays. I can accommodate various timings, whether you need morning or afternoon visits. I am a firm believer that a well exercised pup is a well behaved & happy pup. I spend much of my time with your pet either walking, playing fetch, or letting them run around with other dogs. If boarding, I live in a neighborhood with a wonderful trail system and park for your dog to explore. I have a 1.5 year old golden retriever who is very friendly and social! If your dog requires crating I can definitely accommodate this, my golden is crate trained as well. Additionally, if your dog has specific medical needs, I am both nurturing and attentive in providing the necessary care.
“Diana took very good care of our boxer while we were away! I especially appreciate that she was experienced in handling reactive dogs and knew how to keep our girl out of trouble. We will be booking her again!”
About: I have taken care of all ages of Kittens, Puppies, Cats & Dogs. I am comfortable with dealing with different personalities or needs. I care very much about making sure your pet feels loved & cared for while you are away! I am currently a student at MSU & I usually am only at school for 3-5 hours a day for lectures. When working with pets, I make sure to spend my free time with them to make sure they are cared for! I do not offer services at my personal house. I will come to your house. I like a clean & stress free/easy to understand environment. It is also a requirement that your house is a safe environment for myself & your pets. Communication is a must to create a trusting relationship with your pet/house sitter!
“You’ve got nothing to worry about leaving your pets, house and whatever else with Sara! She’s super friendly, professional, and communicative. She does exactly what she says she’ll do and my zoo was so well cared for that when we got home they weren’t even that excited to see us! She took my dogs on outings and walks everyday and even sent me pictures of cat to let me know everything was A-OK! She is worth every penny and I’d use her services again in a heartbeat (if she’s willing!!) HIGHLY RECOMMEND”
“We booked Allie for a second time to watch our dogs, and she did just as amazing as the first time! Its really clear how much she cares about our animals while we are there and is very respectful of our space. There will most definitely be a third booking!”
“Haylee is AWESOME! Thunder looooved spending time with her over the weekend! Lots of happy dog pictures- thank you so much Haylee, we’ll definitely be in touch with you again soon! ?????? Sarah, Thunder, and Josie”

FAQs for House Sitting - Accola
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 391 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Accola. 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 Accola 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 Accola 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 Accola 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.
