About: Animal lover with 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, and horses for friends, family, and employers. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. My experience includes feeding, walking, exercising, administering basic care, cleaning, overnight stays, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone’s animals, and I always treat every pet like they are my own. I am currently working patr-time on Mondays, so I have plenty of time the rest of the week to spend taking care of loved animals. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and any special instructions to help keep their schedule consistent and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect the space, keep things clean and secure, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and affection. I carefully monitor pets during walks and outdoor time to ensure their safety at all times. I also have experience caring for multiple types of animals, including dogs, cats, and horses, and I am comfortable with pets of different ages, temperaments, and activity levels. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind through dependable care and communication.
About: I lost my own dogs a few years ago, so now I get my dog fix from other people‘s dogs. I take care of dogs like they are my own “children” which is how I referred to my own dogs. Many people have said I am a dog whisperer because I can get dogs to do things owners are not able to do. As I work full time, I make sure dogs get their daily exercise and lovings. While you are away, your dog(s) will be well taken care of with no worries. During the school year, I work full time from 7:30-4 Monday through Friday. I make sure animals have what they need before I leave for work and meet their needs when I return home. I am not able to come home in the middle of the day. During the summer break, I am available all day as I am not working full time. After learning the routine your animal(s) follow daily, l follow it to make sure they stay safe and healthy. I treat your pet(s) and home like it is my own.

About: I have paid pet- and house-sitting experience, including a 10-day overnight dog-sitting stay in summer 2023 for a former supervisor. I cared for her poodle, golden doodle, and senior pug, and I returned for several shorter stays during the school year. During those stays, I cared for the senior pug while he was declining in health. I followed the owners’ instructions carefully, asked questions when I was unsure, and communicated any concerns in a calm, factual way. I also sent occasional photo updates to reassure them that their dogs were safe and well cared for. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleaning up accidents thoroughly, and keeping pets on their normal schedule. I also cared for my own cat, Babu, for many years, including during the last five months of her life when she needed regular medication in both liquid and pill form. That experience taught me a lot about patience, gentle handling, and caring for pets who may be sweet, scared, stubborn, or medically fragile. I’m comfortable with cats, dogs, senior pets, multi-pet homes, basic medication routines, litter boxes, and detailed care instructions. I also grew up caring for small and exotic pets, including lizards, hamsters, rats, and helping care for my grandmother’s iguana. I’m happy to care for many small animals or reptiles with clear instructions, though spiders are my one hard boundary. I currently have flexible availability for house sitting, drop-ins, and pet care. For overnight house-sitting stays, I do my best to keep pets on their normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and quiet companionship. Before each booking, I like to confirm the pet’s schedule, how long they can comfortably be left alone, and any special instructions so I can make sure the care plan is a good fit. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow instructions carefully and treat both the pets and the home with respect. I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, feeding instructions, medications, litter boxes, potty breaks, and any household routines. I’m comfortable asking questions if anything is unclear and communicating calmly if I notice a concern. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. I clean up accidents thoroughly, keep pet areas tidy, and do my best to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in East Helena with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
