“Morgane is an amazing Rover! Her love for animals is radiantly visible and I immediately felt that my pup was is the right hands. She was also responsive and punctual. Would highly recommend! Will rebook if she is available!”
“Taylor did a fantastic job with our small dog Percy! Percy can be very territorial and slow to warm up to people but she was able to win him over and become friends with him while we were away. She is kind, super responsive and you can count on her to do a great job with your pet. I highly recommend Taylor!”
“Meg is so wonderful with our pups, and we are grateful to have found her! One of our dogs is incredibly anxious and nervous of all new people. Meg won her over quickly with her kindness and patience. Very happy to have found such a dependable and caring sitter on Rover.”
“Sarah was fantastic. Showed up at the exact time we talked about. Sent photos. Let me know what my dogs ate and drank during her visit. In addition she let me know my little one couldn’t walk up the steps and she carried him up. She is wonderful.”
“Delaney was SO responsive and communicative when it came to planning her drop ins for our dogs and her time spent with them. Would highly recommend and will book again!”
About: I have taken care of my dog Gin for the past 8 years. We go on multiple walks daily, love playing fetch, and I have taught her over 15 tricks! I have been pet sitting for others as long as I can remember and love to hang with other peoples animals! I’m currently traveling through the US and am looking to make some extra cash on the way :) I’m very flexible on days and times as I have few obligations! I love taking long walks or just hanging out, whatever your pet likes! My dog Gin is very used to meeting new dogs and will hang out and vibe with whatever situation she’s in.
About: I am attentive and exited to care for your pets! I love animals and have worked on my families ranch all my life. I enjoy going on long walks with any dog: excited puppies or slow-moving-seniors! I am a student, so my schedule is very irregular! When I am free, I want to fill my time with care work and fun! I walk a lot every day and have plenty of time to stop by and check in on your pet. My transportation is reliable so going out of town is not a problem.
About: As you can see in my photos, I have a GSP. She needs all the exercise and mental stimulation there is. I have plenty experience tiring out a happy dog :) I’m happy to do walks, play in your fenced yard, have fun at a nearby dog park, or go for a swim. If you’re comfortable with my dog joining, great! If not, totally fine too. However, for overnights I will need to bring my dog with me. I am currently available Monday through Friday, all day! I’m there for ya morning, afternoon, and evening. I’m happy to help any way I can. I know what it is like to want the best care for our pets so I’m committed to providing a safe comfortable space and presence for your bestie. I’m a very empathetic individual so I’ll care for your pet like it’s my own :)
About: I have a 10 year old dalmatian so I'm well versed in unique personalities + high energy along with stubborn tempers. I have a 9 year old husky shepard that I rescued so I'm familiar with anxiety and fearful tendencies like whining/crying etc. I treat my dogs like real children, they have manners such as sitting before eating & being told when it's ok to go to their bowls, they don't beg for food and they know to stay out of certain rooms. I grew up with 5+ dogs in a home so we were all taught how to have boundaries, patience, and respect to function without chaos. Pets are so special and I'll love yours as my own and treat them with the same mutual respect & loving care. You are safe with me. I am a private practice therapist with my own schedule so ask about my availability. During the weekday afternoons I see clients from 10-5:30. I'm pretty flexible to do walks/drops ins. Friday-Sunday works great for house sitting by I can be flexible so just ask :) Home living room is free range for pets, bedrooms are off limits to avoid shedding & boundaries. My dog's sleep on our couches and snuggle on the recliners. We have white noise and cartoons for them. We have a large soccer field in the back of the apartment for play time. I recommend and prefer ecollars for safety especially those that beep or vibrate. The clients home rules are what I'll follow as we all parent differently and I respect those boundaries however I expect manners & I do not care to watch pets that do not listen, beg/steal food, jump/bite. I am happy to correct/train this behavior.
About: I have grown up with multiple dogs at a time, all breeds, sizes and personalities. I also grew up with horses and overall I am an animal lover and here to help your furry friend. I work as a lab research assistant from 8:30am-5:00pm and can come before or after! This schedule will change August 20th when school starts again. I am more than willing to come to your home and walk and care for your pets in an environment they are familiar and comfortable in.
About: Due to working at different times of the day (realtor-life). I have a flexible schedule and available. 10+ years experience with pets (friends and my own). I’m currently working in real estate, I work from home most of the time and have a flexible schedule. Taking care of your dog/cat in between meetings and calls would be the best part of my day. I provide a safe and loving environment for your furry friend(s). My home boasts a dedicated dog washing station and secure fenced yard for playtime (I live at an apartment complex). Walks are always on-leash for their safety, and for feline companions, I offer in-home visits to ensure they're well cared for while you're away.
About: I grew up in Washington with labs my whole life and I feel like time spent around dogs is what I’m missing here in Montana. I have watched a few of my friends dogs in the past, ranging different sizes. I would love to take your dog(s) for a walk! I currently work full time Mon- Saturday, with time available after work or on weekends through the day. Would love to incorporate more animals in to my life since I cannot adopt anymore lol! Both of my cats are indoors and escape artists, so I am used to being very careful and attentive. I understand it is nerve wracking to have someone else watch over your pets and hope that they don’t escape their sight. I promise to do my very best to provide an attentive, loving, friendly approach with your animals.
About: I love animals, especially dogs! My family and I owned pets all throughout my childhood from a dog and cat to rabbits, gerbils, and fish, which made life quite fun and interesting. In my 10 years of experience caring for my family's pets as well as my neighbors' dogs when they would leave on week long trips, I know the difference it makes for animals to receive proper care, love, and attention. Some of the dogs I watched needed certain medications to be taken with their food, so I am familiar with that process. Most of the dogs I have worked with wore shock collars. Because my childhood dog was never very keen on other dogs, I have plenty of experience handling dogs with those personalities. I look forward to meeting your pups and getting to serve you both in the near future! I am only working part-time, about 3 to 4 days per week. Sometimes I work from 10 until 2 or 3 pm, so I would be able to visit or walk your dogs/cats sometime after that! I also work some evenings, typically from 3:30pm to 10pm, so I could walk/visit them before that. I do not currently own any pets, so that lends more flexibility to my schedule. I love being outdoors, so pairing a walk with doggy time would be just wonderful. To become familiar with you and your pet ahead of time, it would be nice to meet you both together prior to your booking. I am not in a living situation where I can board pets, but I do house sit depending on the home you live in. I have a health issue that dictates which environments my body can tolerate. Typically, the older the house I stay in or if it has had water damage, the worse I feel. If your home is fairly new with no water damage involved that you know of, I'd love to chat!

Allison C.
“Allison has a huge love for animals and is a natural when it comes to caring for them. She’s a devoted dog owner, and her pup Gin is one of the most well-trained dogs I’ve ever met. We’re very close, and Gin is always by her side, whether we’re out and about or just hanging out. Allison keeps a consistent feeding schedule, takes Gin to the dog park daily, and genuinely showers her (and other pets in our group) with love. She’s watched my cat before and sent the sweetest photo updates. I’ve seen firsthand how responsible and thoughtful she is. When she travels, making sure Gin is properly cared for is always her top priority. I would 100% recommend Allison as a reliable, loving pet caregiver on Rover! Silvia S.”

She is great at reading any animal's needs and makes sure they get their necessary activity. She also was a 4H Participant in High school, making her more than qualified to take care of Great Danes all the way down to a Shih Tzu.”
