About: I’ve been dog sitting for essentially my whole life! I grew up with 3 small dogs in Davidson, North Carolina, then continued freelance dog sitting throughout undergrad and now grad school at MSU in Bozeman. I’m studying environmental microbiology, and because I’m not sure what my postgrad steps are yet, I am hesitant to get a dog of my own. So, I’d love to be an aunt to as many Bozeman pets as possible! I have taken care of dozens of dogs and cats for my close friends, professors, managers, and strangers. I have no problem with overnight visits due to my flexible schedule, and I’m an avid runner (I ran track and cross country in college) so I’m happy to help dogs get their zoomies out. I can run with high energy dogs if you’re tight on time one day or your pup needs more than a walk. I’d love to wear out your dawgs! As a grad student, I have more flexibility than standard 9-5ers, but often need to spend a big chunk of the day in the lab. I’m usually able to leave around lunch, but weekdays typically require me to be gone for a few hours at a time. However, weekends are very flexible, and I am almost always available for overnights and have lots of time in the evenings and mornings for walks/runs. Sometimes I have periods of more writing and computer work, and during those times I can be at home with fur babies for more of the day. Unfortunately I can’t board pets due to my landlord’s rules, but when I sit in others’ homes, I usually exercise pets in the morning and in the evening (since I also have to get my zoomies out) and send pet pictures daily, though I can do this more frequently upon request. I am generally very flexible, responsive, and receptive to whatever pet owners’ preferences are!

About: I grew up with many pets including an iguana, a rabbit, a fish, a cat, and a dog. I always loved going outside with all our animals and caring for them. I have dog-sat for coworkers, friends, and family, who trusted me to care for their beloved furry friends. I currently do not have a dog of my own, and so I am excited to spend time with and care for others! I have a full-time job from 8-4 and have two days off that are not always weekends. I live an active lifestyle and love walking and hiking. I would love to be able to take dogs with me as a part of this program. I also would be able to check on pets early in the morning and then after work. I truly have a flexible schedule and am willing to be flexible for yours as well. I will follow all house rules as well as training rules. I listen to all owner needs and expectations, and follow through on them. I want your dog to feel safe and also have consistency.

“Daria was amazing. She was so communicative the whole time and made it super easy. She even shoveled some snow, and offered to take out the trash. She gave my kitties some love each day and even my standoffish one warmed to her! I will definitely use her again.”

About: I am a responsible, attentive, and caring, looking to get my share fix of fur babies! I have grown up with dogs and cats, and dogsat for others. I am able to bathe, love, give attention, walk, and play with your fur babies! I currently work full time, but am pretty flexible with my long lunch breaks. I am able to travel to Bozeman or Belgrade, my current job has me located in both! With that, I am able to give your dog a walk, feed them, let them out to the bathroom, or to just play in the mornings, during lunch time, and in evenings! I will care for the pets by making sure they are always fed and given water, shown love through playing and giving them attention, and keeping them safe.

About: I have experienced training and raising my childhood dog, an English Mastiff, up until she passed among sitting other dogs of many ages. I have learned how to care for, train, and set boundaries with puppies as well as learning patience and intentional or special care with senior dogs. I work full time 4 days a week, so I am available 3 days a week for sitting, playing, walking, and feeding! Specifically, I am available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am happy to crate dogs who may have a mischievous personality, or leave them out depending on my clients trust with them. I am also happy to leash pets on walks or work on recall over time if needed. I am open to following extensive feeding routines to care extra for the ones who need it!

About: I grew up on a small farm with a huge variety of animals. I’ve always loved animals and have lived with and taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I am familiar with animal behavior and understand how to keep your pet as well as others safe. I work full time in the evenings, but love to be outdoors and go for walks in the mornings.

Whether this is adhering to their scheduled meal times, potty breaks, favorite toys and treats, I’m happy to care for your pet in a way that prioritizes their happiness and wellbeing. I understand how important pets are to a person or family and will absolutely put their safety first.

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life spanning from kittens to elderly animals. I love and care for all animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently a full time student who lives off campus who also works three days a week. My weekends and nights are totally free with many gaps in my class schedule that would allow me to go check on your pets! I am very excited to offer whichever environment your pet enjoys most! I can be exuberant and play with your younger pups or offer a warm lap for an elderly/shy kitty to snooze on.

“Marina was a wonderful sitter for our cats while we were away. She was reliable, punctual, and communicated consistently, sending photos and updates every day. Our cats can be a little hesitant with new people, but she took the time to engage them in play and they quickly warmed up to her. She was warm, friendly, and clearly cared about their well-being. She even happily FaceTimed with us when we were missing them, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with her again.”

About: I have grown up with pets all my life and loved every second of it and wanted to incorporate animals into my life more since moving away. I have cared for many different breeds and sizes of dogs and loved every second of it. I am reliable, punctual and love going to walks or any type of play they want. I ensure your pet’s safety and happiness, as a happy dog is the best sight to see. I am currently an engineering student with classes until 2 pm at the latest. If your pets ever needs an early walk I am open on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays before 11am. Aside from that I am free on weekends whenever needed and I’m always open to last minute walks or anything I could help you with. I will prioritize your pets routine by strictly following any and all care instructions, the more specific the better. When in your home, I ensure everything stays clean and secure. I also love sending photo updates to show you how much fun your pet is having while you’re away! I will answer texts/calls promptly to keep you comfortable and up to date with anything you need.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I’ve walked dogs for years and have cared for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. As a former dog grooming assistant, I’ve worked hands-on with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. This experience taught me how to confidently handle shy, energetic, or more challenging pets with patience and care. I’ll treat your animals like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. As a full-time college student without a full-time job, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care. I’m available mornings and evenings, as well as for drop-in visits during the day. This flexibility means I can give your pets the time and attention they deserve while fitting care seamlessly into my routine. In your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I take the time to understand their unique needs, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, or giving extra love. I always prioritize safety by carefully following your instructions, keeping a close eye on doors, gates, and making sure your pet is happy and secure. You can trust that I’ll treat your home and pets with the same care and respect as I would my own.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I was 15 and have always loved caring for animals. I’ve walked neighbors’ dogs and volunteered at local shelters, gaining experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Whether it’s a long walk, some playtime, or quiet company, I give each pet the attention they deserve. ❤️ I am working part time and will only be out of the house around 4 hours on weekdays. I also have awesome roommates who use Rover and we help each other out when needed. I have a house with lots of outdoor space (not fenced) and 4 female roommates who love animals. Your pup will get lots of attention and care!

About: I combine reliable, attentive care with a genuine love for dogs. Whether it’s energetic walks or just hanging out while they nap, I adapt to what your dog needs. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my family. As a student, I have a flexible schedule with time throughout the day to care for your pup. Whether it’s taking your dog out for a walk, providing playtime, or watching them while you’re away for the week, I’m here to help. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, which is why I exclusively provide care in my clients’ homes. This helps reduce stress and keeps your dog’s routine consistent.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, mainly rescues or shelter dogs. Additionally, my prior job was a groomer/bather at Muddy Paws in Bend OR. I’m comfortable with large reactive dogs. I enjoy long hikes so if you want your dog worn out that can be done! Currently studying geography at MSU, with an accommodating schedule. I will be in Bozeman for the majority of the summer, during which I will not be taking classes. My availability is regularly updated. My dogs have currently replaced me at home, my parents now have 3 dog children. I was raised that they were “my siblings” and appreciate their individual personalities. I got Amelia (the black lab) at 9 years old, she grew up to be occasionally reactive and therefore spent a long time learning how to adapt my approach to supporting her. I love walking around town, but end up staying away from crowds in order to get a productive walk in for my dogs.

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.

My dogs hit it off with Olivia immediately at our meet & greet. Olivia did a wonderful job checking in with Stevie and Mo while we were out-of-town for the day and playing with them in our yard. Plus, she took some great photos of the fun they had together! We’re lucky to have Olivia in Bozeman, and highly recommend her!

Jessica is a fantastic pet sitter. She is very punctual, reliable, and respectful. We recently had her scheduled for drop in visits for our senior cat (15 yr old Bengal) and senior dog (9 yr old mixed small breeds). She was very gentle and friendly with both. Our dog experiences separation anxiety and she did a great job helping her to feel safe and calm. She listened our dog when she was too overwhelmed to go for a walk and didn’t force her to do anything she didn’t feel safe to do. By day 2 they both were excited to see Jessica when she came over. If she is available in your area I highly recommend her.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Bozeman

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bozeman is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $35 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 546 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bozeman. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bozeman. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
