“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.”
“Val was a wonderful match for our puppy! She made sure he was well taken care of while we were away. He got lots of play time, snuggles and walks! Also, I received updates with photos and useful feedback! Moose would love to have her back!”
“First time using Rover and we honestly weren’t sure what to expect, but Nicolas completely put us at ease. He took Georgia on walks, kept her happy, and treated our home with total respect. He sent pictures throughout the evening and was easy to communicate with from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and will absolutely be booking with him 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.”
“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.”
About: I have worked at a dog kennel for the past two years so I have lots of dog experience! I have also had dogs my entire life from labs to chihuahuas! I am from Minnesota and a freshman at Montana State University. I have a pretty open schedule with lots of afternoon, evening, and weekend flexibility. I crate all of my dogs so that is not and issue for me! I also have experience with food aggression and lots of different types of reactivity. If you would like references just let me know!
About: I have grown up around many different types of dogs and have dog sat all through high school. I have a 1 year old puppy and feel confident in my patience working with younger dogs. I am currently a full time student at the University, therefore I am unavailable during weekdays, but I am 100% flexible on the weekend (Friday-Sunday) I will keep a good eye on your fur baby at all times! I will follow any and all directions provided to keep your pup stress free.
“Katie was great. She sent pictures of the pups which made us feel comfortable and know that they were okay and allowed us to enjoy our trip. Definitely recommend. Thank you Katie”
“Ellie is the best! I had a bunch of last minute schedule changes and she was super understanding and flexible. Bullet had a great time with her and she sent plenty of updates and pictures!!”
About: I have loved and cared for cats and dogs my entire life. For the past year and a half, I have professionally helped friends to look after their dogs while they were away on vacation. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they get plenty of love, playtime, and reliable care while you are away. I currently work part-time, so I have enough time to give high-quality care to your pet. Mostly, I am only available during the workweek, but sometimes I can help on weekends too. I am always respectful of my clients and their animals, ensuring that their property and pets are safe and protected. I promise that your animal will have a lot of fun with me and feel loved.
“Air offered to do a meet-and-greet before the booking date, was on time, was very respectful of my home, and was super sweet to my Zoey. Zoey has separation anxiety, and she was fast asleep and totally relaxed in Ari’s lap when I got home. I highly recommend Ari and will be booking her again!”
“Vanessa does a great job communicating and caring for my anxious dog, Reese. She is very accommodating for special requests and I always come home to a happy puppy!”
“Landry was awesome and took excellent care of our pups during our house-sitting booking. One of our pups has some special needs (requires oral medication) and she followed all the directions for care perfectly. 10/10 would book again!!”
About: Hi! My name is Josie, I’m a 19 year old college freshman at MSU. I grew up with my first dog at 6 years old (having had a cat before that), and started dog walking for money around age 11, and my family just got a new dog recently too! For the last two years, I’ve been doing overnight house sitting and drop-ins for dogs and cats for neighbors and friends. I’m also comfortable caring for other pets like bearded dragons, birds, and bunnies, and although I’ve never done a snake before, I’m certainly not afraid of them! I'm responsible, easy to communicate with, and will treat your home and pets with care while you're away. I’m flexible in the mornings, evenings, and overnight! I do have college classes in the afternoon between 12:00 PM and 3:00/4:00 PM, so I won't be in the home continuously during those hours. I am comfortable following whatever routine works best for your pets. I have experience crating dogs and administering pill medications and eye drops. I’ve also worked with cats through Heart of the Valley, so I’m great at reading animal body language, keeping spaces clean, and making sure your pets stay relaxed.
“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.”
“Alysse was great with our dog and guinea pig. She took great care of both of them and obviously spent a lot of time playing with them. She took wonderful care of our home, and I would definitely recommend her for your pet/home care!! Moe loved her right away and he's usually a little more cautious.”
“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!”
“Brittany was wonderful for our pets when we went on vacation. She sent photos every morning and afternoon. She played fetch with our pup morning and evening as well! Our cat and dog loved her and we would recommend her for pet sitting. Thanks again Brittany!”

We had a wonderful experience with Noelle caring for Ginger and Barley while we were away! She was communicative, dependable, and especially attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Barley enjoyed his walks, while Ginger was perfectly content being her independent, cat-in-a-dog’s-body self. 😂 We received regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. She also took excellent care of our home, leaving everything just as clean as we left it. She even thoughtfully alerted us to some fallen tree limbs following a storm, so there were no surprises when we returned. Both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable in her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
This was our first experience with Anastasiia and it could't have gone better! She took amazing care of our beagle, lab and cat, for five days keeping us updated on their activities with pictures and calling if she had any concerns or questions. She was also very flexible and communicative when we had travel issues. Anastasiia met with us ahead of time and took careful notes about all of their care and feeding, etc. We (and our motley crew) highly recommend Anastasiaa for pet sitting and will happily use her again!
Cate is awesome. She watched my dog, Pierogi, for a week. Rogi is dog reactive and requires some management while out and about. Cate was confident in her ability to handle her behaviors and was receptive to my instructions, as well. I got updates and pictures throughout the sit and could tell Rogi was very well taken care of. I didn’t worry about Rogi once, which means so much. When we got home, Cate had cleaned the house, washed the sheets, and remade the bed - so incredibly appreciated after 11+ hours in the car! Cate is responsible, caring, and considerate and I will definitely be asking her to watch Rogi again!
Valeria took EXCELLENT care of our 3 pets for two days & nights. She was very communicative, asking questions before taking them new places, lots of pictures -- and the house was spotless when we arrived back home. This was our first experience with Valeria but we will definitely be booking again -- the boyz can't wait!
Ave is an amazing dog and house sitter! She stayed with our older dog for a long weekend and took such great care of him. She was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It gave us peace of mind to know Buster was in good hands in his familiar home environment while we were gone.
Lillian is everything you want a dogsitter to be! She loved our pups, our pups loved her, she updated us frequently with pictures and texts, was fantastic with communication, and took wonderful, loving care of our dogs. We’ll definitely be asking her to dog sit for us in the future! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Bozeman is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $80 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 429 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bozeman. 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 Bozeman 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 Bozeman 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bozeman 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
