“Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.”
“Madie was absolutely wonderful with Goldie. My pup is high-energy & can sometimes be reactive towards new people, but Madie knew exactly how to how to handle her quirks! This was her second time watching Goldie and both times she has been great with keeping me updated. Already have my next trip booked with her - I know my little pup will be happy and content while I'm away.”
“This is the third time Emma has stayed with Goose and again we came home to a clean house and tired dog. Emma is great! We’re looking forward to having her dog sit multiple more times this year.”
“Megan took great care of Maxine. She was very communicative and kept me updated on how Max was doing along with plenty of pictures (many of which featured a happy and smiling dog) Would recommend to others and have no hesitations about booking again.”
“savannah was excellent, always kept me updated and really paid close attention to my dog who i love so much. i felt so great on my time away knowing she was there to help us and care for him.”
“Valeria, stayed overnight to take care of our three dogs. This was our first time using Rover and we were so fortunate that she came to help us out with the overnight stay. She did a great job communicating and sending picture of the dogs. We will definitely use her services again.”
“We had another great experience with Jenna! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our fur babies. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for pups. We would definitely book with Jenna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Frenchie stayed with our two pups for a week. She was fantastic. Very responsive with her communication and attentive to our dogs. We'll definitely use her again!”
“Jeremy and Megan were wonderful to work with. This was our first time using someone other than friends and family and I don’t think we could have found better. They are kind and communicative. Our dog, Porkchop took to them right away, and we feel our boy got all the love he longs for while we were away. We will definitely use Jeremy and Megan again! Highly recommend.”
About: Hello! I am a travel nurse in between contracts, always looking a fun way to get out of the house. Being from Montana, I grew up with all sorts of animals, learning how to take care of them through 4H and all our household pets. Layla and I love going to the beach along with hiking and we would really enjoy some more company. Also, I know I hate leaving my pets home alone for too long and I would love to help anyone out with giving their dog babies plenty of attention throughout the day or overnight. Let me know what I can help you with, I look forward to meeting you.
“Nicolas communicated extremely well on pet sitting our two pups while we visited the community he lives in. I would highly recommend him to care for your treasured fur babies.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since day one — I grew up with everything from spirited poodles to goofy Portuguese Water Dogs to stubborn, sausage-shaped dachshunds, so I’ve got a soft spot for every size, coat, and personality quirk. That early exposure turned into a real passion, and I’ve been professionally walking and sitting dogs since I was 18. I’m an active, outdoorsy person, and I bring that energy to every walk and visit — plenty of play, exploration, and enthusiasm, tailored to whatever your dog is into (fetch fanatic, sniff-everything explorer, or couch cuddler, I’m here for it). What I love most about this work is getting to know each dog as an individual: their quirks, their personalities, their little routines. I treat every dog in my care like my own 🐶🩷 I just moved here and have nothing but time! I am doing some research part time from home, but will have lots of time for your pet :) I know inviting someone into your home to care for your dog is a big trust to extend, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m highly educated, reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll follow your care instructions to the letter, keep your home just as tidy as I found it, and send you photo and video updates so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Your dog’s safety is always my top priority: I’m careful with doors and gates, attentive to any anxiety or health needs, and quick to reach out if anything ever seems off. You can relax knowing your dog — and your home — are in good hands.
“Trena was awesome to work with! She was very communicative and sent us pictures when she first arrived and mid-day as well! It gave us peace of mind seeing that our fur babies were relaxed and comfortable with Trena.”
“Cate was AMAZING! We left town and booked her very last minute and she was happy to come and meet the dogs before we left. Cate took great care for our two dogs. If you are looking for a dog sitter, Cate is awesome!”
“I think my dog had a better vacation than we did. Keeley took her on little adventures, got her special treats and gave our energetic pup plenty of physical and mental exercise. Recommended!”
“Ashley has great communication! She sent multiple pictures, let me know when she arrived and when she left. My dog was the most relaxed and content he has been with any sitter. We will definitely be using Ashley again.”
“What an OUTSTANDING experience for our furs and for us! 12/10!! We are hoping Samantha is always available for our future trips! Our pets appeared well cared for, as was our home. We will definitely try to rebook, she will be our go to in the future!”
“Bailey took such great care of our senior dog! Our dog can be a little quirky so it’s comforting to find someone that understands that. When we got back from our trip our dog even went up to the guest room like she missed Bailey! Bailey also left our house in great condition and washed all of the linens she used. Happily will book her again!”
About: I have experience pet sitting for dogs, especially caring for a reactive one for a couple of years. I understand how to work with fearful dogs and will care for them regardless. I can walk, feed, and even give medication as needed. I have a deep passion for animals, especially dogs, and I would love to be able to care for yours! I have also worked alongside veterinarians to gain experience in animal handling. I love all dogs, big and small, and I know I could provide great care for your pup! I’m currently a student at Montana State, but all of my classes end at two. I’m available on the weekends for overnights and day pet sitting. I will care for your pets like my own, but I also understand that many pets have different boundaries. I will always respect their boundaries and make sure that your animals are comfortable and happy in their own spaces. Whether that means crates, time spend apart, or time spent together, I will make sure that your pets still feel like they are home.

Emily did amazing with boomer and jinxx! They absolutely loved her! She fed them on time, sent a lot of pictures and anytime I asked she let me know how they were. I would 10/10 recommend her and use her again to watch the dogs! She was amazing!!! Thanks Emily! We appreciate you so much!
Alysse is truly exceptional. She took excellent care of our dog, Sadie! She was attentive, she played games with her and kept her engaged so that she wouldn’t miss us too much. She is super reliable, and I have every confidence in her as a sitter, especially with her background as a vet tech. I highly recommend Alysse and will absolutely book her again!
Nicolas, or Cole, watched Riley and Orion for us while we were gone several hours at a wedding. He kept in touch with us, took the pups for potty walks and sent photos to update us. Riley isn't always comfortable with men, but she was all over Cole, and Orion loved him, too!! He fed them, and they both ate, which isn't always a given during travel and new places. Cole was great with them, and they may have wanted to go home with him if we'd let them 😁 Thank you for making it much easier and worry-free to be at my niece's wedding. We appreciate the help!!
Delaney was absolutely awesome watching my dog for over a month. I was delayed on my travel and she was just fine with adding an additional week on. She took such good care of my home and dog, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog and or dog/house sitter. She is the best!
Jenna is amazing!! She took great care of our dogs… one is elderly and needs more attention than most. She went above and beyond to care for them and this made it easier on us being away from them. I can’t say enough great things about her. Thank you, Jenna! M. Nagel
We had an excellent experience with Galina! She took care of our two dogs in our home while we were away on vacation, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. She was incredibly attentive and caring, and it was clear our dogs felt comfortable and happy with her. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dogs and home were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Galina to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Balmont
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Balmont on Rover is $81.03 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 440 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Balmont. 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 Balmont 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 Balmont 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 Balmont 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Balmont. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
