“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful while house-sitting for us for several days. She took incredible care of our home and left it clean—honestly even better than we found it. She sent daily updates and photos of our pets, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear our pets were happy and well cared for. We would 100% use Stephanie again.”
“Contacted TJ in a pinch and she was there I left on a trip quick notice and wanted a sitter for my two dogs and 2 cats. They love TJ. She sent photos and stayed in contact the entire time! Very thankful for her services and Ill be back!”
“Nothing better than feeling and knowing you're furr child is safe at home while you are on holiday. Thank you Nicole for taking great care of my baby. I'll be scheduling again soon.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have years of experience feeding, walking, training, and caring for my family’s dogs with love and patience. Caring for animals is part of my daily life. I help feed, walk, and train my family’s dogs every day, and I love fitting pet sitting into my weekly routine. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I always make time to give pets the attention and love they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on time, walked or let out regularly, and given plenty of attention, play, and love. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own, keeping things tidy and making sure your pets are happy while you’re away. 🏡 Safety & Support Policy (House Sitting) As a dedicated and responsible sitter, my first priority is the well-being of your pets and the security of your home. To ensure the highest level of care and support during my stays, especially in the event of an unexpected need or emergency: • Family Support: I am currently 18 and highly focused on safety. For my own protection, and as a requirement from my parents, I cannot be completely alone for extended periods in unfamiliar homes. • Visits and Overnights: Please note that a responsible family member (such as my sibling or parent) may visit briefly to check on me, or sometimes stay overnight to provide support and ensure everything is running smoothly. They are respectful, quiet, and know how to interact safely with pets. • Wellness and Emergencies: In cases of personal illness or any sudden household/pet emergency where I might need immediate assistance, my family is ready to step in to provide food, medicine, or help with complex logistics. Your Comfort is Key: I welcome the opportunity for you to meet any family member who may be visiting or staying with me during the Meet & Greet. If you have any questions or concerns about this arrangement, please bring them up!
About: I currently work at Flathead Pet Emergency as a veterinary assistant and have been in the field for 3 years. I’ve been taking care of all animals from birds to dogs to turtles since I was little and especially value senior care and mental enrichment for the little ones! I currently work 12 Saturday and Sunday so I’m not available 10am-10pm but anytime before or after. And weekdays anytime except from 4-12 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I live in Bigarm but I work in Kalispell. I believe in fear free relationships. So no forcing my love on them and if they want their space I’ll let them have it! Food is usually the way to an animals heart and I have no problem feeding my way to their love. Having experience in vet med I have no problem giving medications from oral meds to injections or taking care of any other special needs you may have for your pet.
“Reid was great! He took the time to do a meet and greet prior to watching Dale, which I really appreciated. Our home was clean when we got back from being gone for two weeks. He sent photos of Dale and updated me often. Thanks again Reid! Definitely recommend and will use his services again.”
“We had a great experience with Nick. Nick is very quick to respond and sent us daily updates. I will definitely rebook with Nick when we need a sitter for our Diva dog Jude.”
About: I have s lifetime of experience in pet care. I worked as a vet tech for many years And I have bred, shown and cared for pets my whole life. I Also specialize in horses, cattle and large lifestock as well as dogs and cats. Pet sitting, horse training and horse breeding are my primary full-time jobs. With that said I have full control over my schedule and I’m happy to accommodate most of our pet owner needs. We look forward to having your dog stay with us. All dogs are allowed to have free rein of my house and are taken out to potty and play every few hrs, unless they need more at which we provide that. We pet them, play with them and really make them feel at home. We keep all dogs separate at feeding times. Safety is always # 1 I don't have kennels I have horse stalls that I can put dogs in for short stents of time. They are lined with shavings Most of the time dogs remain with me in the house. I offer a Pick up and drop off as well for an extra fee.
About: I’ve been studying animal behavior for two years, and I’m passionate about loving and caring for pets as if they were my own. I have a service dog named Buddy, who is incredibly affectionate and enjoys making friends with animals. I’m committed to teaching well-being behaviors in my home to ensure the safety and comfort of my pets. Additionally, I volunteer at shelters to assist in finding and supporting suitable placements for enrichment activities. I hold certifications in pet first aid and dog training, which further enhance my expertise in caring for animals. I am available to schedule clients throughout the week and can work with flexible timing to fit appointments into my day. Since I work part-time, I have availability seven days a week, which allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules. To ensure smooth planning and avoid any last-minute changes, I kindly request a confirmation of all appointments by 2:00 PM the day prior. I will be alone at home so visits will be solo. I’m using enrichment tools and techniques to keep your pet happy and healthy. I have a fenced yard with everything your pet needs. There are plenty of spots for them to relax and play. I’ll be watching over your pets, and I use Kongs, treats, and toys to ensure their safety and well-being. I also do health checks and training to keep them in top shape.

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.
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 Charlo 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 Charlo 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 Charlo 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
