“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Kathleen! She was absolutely amazing, and we never had a single worry about Brady while we were away. He is part of our family, so knowing he was in such loving, caring, and capable hands meant the world to us. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was being well cared for and loved while we were not with him. We are very grateful for Kathleen and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their doggie!”
“Katherine & Jake are so wonderful! Great communicators, wonderful with dogs & happy to accommodate to your dogs needs. They send many photos and videos with updates, detailing how much fun your pup is having with their doggos. Super sweet people who love animals big time. Highly recommend!”
“This was our dogs 2nd stay with Charles. Charles is very communicative and send lots of photos. We feel comfortable leaving our dog with Charles and knows he takes good care of him!”
“Cait was so awesome with Echo! We had to find something last minute to spend the weekend in Whitefish and this was the perfect option. Cait sent many photos and set our minds at ease while away from Echo. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Josie, her dog, family, home.... is more than we could have asked for for our a Cooper and Daisy. Daisy had a fantastic friend to play with and had a huge yard filled with toys, space and fun! Cooper had a couch to cozy up on. They both came back home healthier and more fit!!! I really appreciate Josie and her family! Josie is like the responsible and trusted family member that you trust! Also, she is so close to the Bozman Airport, it was so convenient... She is the only person we want to ever trust our puppets with!”
“Lauren and Tay were great! Our dog loved them and they sent us sweet updates while we were away. We were just passing through Bozeman so they were very helpful providing recommendations as well! Definitely would recommend!”
“Raina provided excellent care for our dog Sienna. She quickly made Sienna feel comfortable, giving us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We got regular updates and Raina was always responsive with our communication, which was much appreciated as well! If you are in need of a thoughtful, responsive, and caring pet sitter, we would recommend Raina (& Ridley)!”
“Lillian was personable, professional and an excellent communicator. Turk absolutely loved his time with her and we have found the perfect pet sitter for the many adventures ahead in 2027. Look no further. Lillian is the Best of the Best.”
About: I’ve had my own dogs & cats all my life and love to love them! I’ve dog sat 7 dogs at one time and they were all such happy campers! I do not currently live with all of my pets! Puhi and Bass, my cats, live with me. I am currently a full-time student and work part time at a local restaurant. I do have lots of free time where I would love to take care of some dogs and cats to fill my time. I am very aware of my surroundings when I’m in charge of other peoples animals. I can crate them if needed and walk them as much as needed, etc.
“Katherine was such a fabulous dogsitter. She was our first Rover and she set the bar so high. She is a great communicator, she was flexible with us when our trip plans changed and was flexible with planning around drop off/pick up. She sent us daily updates of their adventures with pics and videos. We kept joking the dog was having a better vacation than we were. We would absolutely send our pup to stay with Katherine and Nuggets again and would happily recommend her to others.”
“Lisa was wonderful with Bodhi! She sent lots of photos and updates and was very communicative and easy to schedule with. He came back really happy and seemed to have such a fun time. We will definitely use Lisa in the future!”
“I 100% recommend her! My dog absolutely loved staying with her. She kept me updated every day and sent me photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also has a big yard where the dogs can play and enjoy themselves. When I picked my dog up, he was happy and it was clear that he had a great time. I would definitely trust her with him again! ❤️🐶”
“Our dog Lola had another wonderful stay with Sarah and her family. Lola is an older sensitive gal, and Sarah is attentive to Lola's needs by spreading extra rugs around the house, and allowing Lola to sleep upstairs in their room. Sarah also takes Lola out on walks, no matter the weather, to keep Lola's old bones moving. Lola settles in easily at Sarah's, and is always relaxed and happy when I pick her up. Finally, Sarah is very easy to communicate with and always responds right away to my communications.”
About: I have had dogs throughout my entire life. Two of which live with my parents back in my hometown, and we have had them since they were puppies. With both dogs, I have personally crate trained and potty trained them both, as well as trained them to sit, lay down, and wait for their food. Additionally, a fun skill one of mine has learned is to wait and lift up each leg to get his harness on. While that is all experience with my own dogs, I have also done many drop in visits and overnight sitting for other pets. I am currently work a full-time job and am available to care for your pets in the evenings during the weekdays. As for weekends, I am available for boarding at my home, walks and drop-in visits! In your home, I will make sure that your pets are comfortable with me before proceeding, as this is the most important! Additionally, if you crate your dogs, I will make sure that they get to potty, play, and have water before returning to their crate. I am always open for any special requests that you may have, such as help with training, bathing, etc.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Blackwood
Parker and his girlfriend Trinity are the absolute best dog sitters I could’ve hoped for! They took the time to come over and meet my pup before having her for a week- she instantly loved them and they really made it a point to get to know her/her needs. I was at ease knowing that they would care for her as if she were their own. They sent updates while i was gone and just went above and beyond while she was with them. It was such a weight off my shoulders to not have to worry at all about my sweet pup while away.
This is one of those moments where I don't want to tell everyone how amazing Codi is, because I selfishly want to ensure my pup can enjoy time with her whenever we need. Codi was phenomenal with my pup; thoughtful, caring and ensured he had a wonderful time while I was away. Could not recommend more.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Blackwood home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Blackwood.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Blackwood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
