“Naomi was wonderful! She communicated well, was reliable, sent photos and even offered to come back if our flight was delayed due to bad weather. We’ll definitely hire her again!!”
“Britney was amazing with our dogs. We needed a dog sitter with relatively short notice and she made a point to visit prior to the stay to meet our dogs and take notes about their care. She gave updates and photos of the dogs each day and left our house in great shape. I highly recommend Britney as a responsible and attentive dog sitter. Thank you!!”
“Tessa did an amazing job taking care of my tuxedo cat and chihuahua. Chihuahuas are notoriously finicky and she did a great job caring for her quirky ways. Thank you Tessa! Will definitely be asking her to come back!”
“Amberly was hands down the most caring and attentive pet sitter. One of our dogs gets separation anxiety and has a hard time eating when we are gone, but this was no issue for Amberly! She took the time to sit with him and comfort him as he finished his meal. Amberly was also very flexible by meeting with me prior to watching the dogs to go over details and stuck around longer when we decided to extend our trip. If you are looking for a great pet sitter, I highly recommend Amberly. She was fantastic! I hope to rebook her for future needs.”
“Matthew was great with all of our animals! We have two seniors which both required special care and medication. Matthew did such a fine job caring for them and kept us updated on everyone's condition. He was reliable and we will definitely be hiring him again!!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life especially caring for my own pets. I have fostered many young puppies and am experienced in potty training, basic commands, and medical care. I worked as an intern in an animal clinic where I gained skills in critical thinking, proper handling of animals, and awareness of standards for the animal health care industry. I am currently home for the summer after completing my first year at Montana State University studying Animal Science! I am free on weekends and weekdays for whatever your pet may need! I am available to take care of your pet in the comfort of your home. I can ensure that your pets will always be safe with me! I've fostered four puppies at once and always made sure that they were being watched to ensure nothing bad happened. I crate trained my own dog when he was a puppy so I am not unfamiliar with the process! I am always happy to teach your pup a few new tricks as well!
About: With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, I understand that every dog has unique needs. As an Australian Shepherd owner, I'm especially familiar with high-energy breeds, exercise requirements, behavioral sensitivities, and the importance of consistent routines. I also have firsthand experience caring for dogs with chronic health conditions, dietary restrictions, and sensitive digestive systems. Whether your dog needs an adventurous walk, extra patience, or individualized attention, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I treat every dog with the same care, compassion, and attention I give my own! I offer flexible scheduling for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting exclusively in your home. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's daily routine and am happy to coordinate visits around their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and individual care requirements. Weekday and weekend availability can be arranged based on your needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide care exclusively in clients' homes, allowing pets to remain in their familiar environment with minimal disruption to their routines. I'm attentive to behavioral cues, dietary restrictions, medical needs, and exercise preferences. I prioritize secure handling, clear communication, and regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is receiving reliable, individualized care while you're away.
About: I grew up with a golden retriever, and later a yellow labrador who was my best canine friend throughout my childhood and teenage years. I helped my family raise all our dogs, including another yellow lab and a Bernese lab mix. I have cared for many neighbors and friends dogs, and am able to handle a wide range of personalities. I am confident handling any size dog on a leash and will work with your dogs specific needs, including any special conditions. I am comfortable administering medication if necessary. I take care of other dogs the same way I take care of my own, with lots of love and attention. It makes me happy to see dogs smile and I love to be the reason behind that smile! I am currently in grad school, so while busy, my schedule is very flexible and I'm able to care for dogs any day of the week, any time of the day. In my home, any pets I care for will be spending time with my own dog, Skye. Outside of my home, I'm able to provide pet care with or without the addition of my dog Skye based on client preferences.
“Sam was fantastic! She responded promptly, communicated clearly, provided updates, asked questions proactively, and most importantly took excellent care of our dog and chickens. She also left the house clean. We will be happy to have her back again!”
About: I have not lived a single year without a dog. I have had all different kinds of pets and think Rover is an awesome way to keep them active and loved!! I am able to pull heavy dogs and have had experience with dogs of all ends of the discipline spectrum. I am almost 24 and recently moved to Bozeman from Virginia. I have a 9 month old German Shepard and have had my own personal dogs for the last 4 years. I work remotely and am extremely flexible with schedule. I've trained multiple puppies and taken classes on this as well. I am currently working FULL-TIME REMOTE! So i have all the time necessary to take care of your animals when needed and spend extra time with them. I have an energetic puppy myself who loves other animals. We are outdoors constantly and I am well seasoned in ensuring the safety of your animal. I have great experience leash training as well, and am more than willing to incorporate this if the client would like!
About: Since I can remember I have been around dogs, cats, and birds. I have recently adopted my own dog named Harley who is stranger reactive so I am very comfortable dealing with going at the dog's/cat's pace of comfortability. I love the outdoors and exploring with my dog as she slowly learns to trust others and new environments. Long walks and cuddles are my priority while you are away. I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! My work schedule is super flexible and easy to change if there are any last minute changes. Fenced in yard with room to play ball. Lots of room for playing or just enjoying the sun in the back yard. Triggers are blocked off by trees and the fence.
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.
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Arnold
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 430 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arnold. 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 Arnold 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 Arnold 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 Arnold 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.
