“Quinn did an excellent job caring for my young puppy, Luna, while I was at work. Since she is still very small, I was initially concerned about leaving her, but I felt completely at ease knowing she was in his care. He followed my instructions and care plan closely, and when I returned home, Luna was happy and relaxed. Quinn was also easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience even better. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dogsitter.”
“April was super kind, patient, communicative, and attentive. Our dog was happy and had all her needs met when we got back! April also left our house quite clean and cared for our gardens. Thanks, April. We'd be happy to have you as a sitter again!”
“Logan was outstanding! Our dog got to go on lots of adventures and was very active. Her communication was top notch! She was very respectful to our home as well. We hope to book her for all of our future trips!”
“Corbin is a truly great pet + house sitter, and we feel so lucky to have found him! He took great care of our pup and our home while we were away for a week. He checked-in regularly with photos and updates, and responded promptly whenever we reached out. He is very professional, kind, and overall just seems like a great person. He left our place very clean and tidy, and our pup really seemed to bond with him well as a new best friend. We would gladly recommend Corbin’s services, and look forward to working with him again soon.”
“Linda was great! Typically when I return from being away, Jax has severe separation anxiety but his demeanor was completely different when I returned. He was happy to see me but I could tell he was well loved while I was gone. That is the most important aspect I look for when using a care giver. My bonus was the house was spotless. I will be using Linda as often as I can get her.”
“Georgina is a fantastic dog/house sitter. She took amazing care of our little chihuahua. He warmed up quickly to Georgina and she sent me lots of photos and updates, which I appreciated! I could tell he was well taken care of while we were gone! She also kept the house clean and went above and beyond and washed the sheets at the end of her stay. I will definitely book Georgina again in the future!!”
About: My dad was a veterinarian, so I grew up with animals and am well acquainted. I know how to best take care of your pet and am prepared to handle any situation. I’m trying to earn money for college in the fall, so I’m free almost anytime and am pretty flexible. I’m usually free in the mornings My home is spacious, clean, and has a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs happy to play with your pet. I give my pets the best care possible!
“I couldn't recommend Haley highly enough. It's hard to find people you trust and can rely on - and with Haley you get both. (Plus daily photos and great communication.) She's one of the only people we will have watch our dogs. We appreciate you!”
“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our girls with someone other than friends and they helped us feel assured that things would go smoothly (and they did!).”
“Bryan was fantastic! He took great care of our little girl, and she and his dog Ron truly bonded and had great fun doing various outdoor adventures! We would highly recommend Bryan for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“My very timid dog had an enjoyable evening with her first time with Maisie. Maisie has a calm and pleasant way that made my dog comfortable in her presence. I hope Maisie will be available to spend more time with my dog in the future.”
“Quinn was very responsive and easy to communicate with. He was also flexible in setting up a time to do a meet and greet before we left. The dogs were well taken care of and the house was in excellent shape upon our return. Quinn was very thoughtful and tidy and even started laundry for his bedding and towels before we got home.”
“Lizzie was so amazing! Our younger dog gets really excited and dogs jump on new people (he is in classes for that). She was so sweet and patient with him. Throughout her whole stay with the dogs she sent multiple photos, checked in with us regularly, and was always very attentive with the dogs. Dogs were fed on time (following all the details we left behind), they went on long walks and never had an issue. We would absolutely book her again!”
“Cyrus took great care of our pets. They were very relaxed when we got home and you can tell they had a stress-free week. He left our apartment very clean and was responsive when we messaged. Thanks so much Cyrus, hope to book with you again!”
“Rosie did a great job with my reactive/anxious pup. I loved that she sent photos while I was away, and I felt confident leaving Winnie in her care. Would recommend!”
“Chloe took great care of my cat! When I returned home from out of town, my girl seemed totally happy. I get anxious being apart from my cat, but Chloe communicated well and made me feel completely at ease being away from her.”
“Franchesca is amazing!! Went above and beyond, our dogs were so happy and loved her. She’s a great communicator and sent us pictures everyday and kept us updated, and also had made us cookies and left us a note to come home to. We love her so much, we’re keeping her on to have walking dates with our dogs just so they can see her! If we could leave a 10 out of 5, we would!”
“Haley was a great sitter for our two high energy, 'free-range' dogs. They got all the hikes and cuddles they needed. She stayed at our house over the period we were away and left the place looking great.”
“Delaney was so wonderful with our dogs! We had never left them for a full week, so I was nervous about this. She was very communicative and gave plenty of updates. I could tell our dogs were comfortable and happy through the pictures and videos she would send. She stayed in our apartment and also left it spotless. I would highly recommend booking Delaney next time you need a dog sitter!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Missoula
Quinn did such good job house sitting! He took great care of my dog and was clean and respectful of the house. He sent photo updates and I could tell my dog was happy and in good hands. I had great peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book Quinn again!
Brandy was wonderful! She was very responsive, asked good questions, and provided cute pictures of our dog, Cooper. Brandy stayed at our house for five nights and left it very clean. I knew when I met her that she would take great care of our dog. It gave me confidence, which helped me enjoy our time away even more. I will definitely book with Brandy again!
Alaina is the best sitter we've ever had! The dogs absolutely loved her, she was communicative, left the house clean, and clearly took care of our pups with a lot of love. Our pups didn't seem anxious at all after returning from a week away from them, which is a testament to how well they were cared for. Thanks so much, Alaina!!
Laila was awesome with my dogs who tend to be fearful of strangers. She definitely is a person that my dogs and I trust! She took special care to administer my pets medication with care, was an excellent communicator, and sent lots of photos of my pups! She stayed at my home for 3 nights and left it super tidy!
Michelle was so great house sitting our pets! It’s always awkward inviting a new stranger into your home while you’re away, but she was extremely warm and trustworthy. She called the day before the booking to check in, sent tons of pictures, and respected all of the pets’ routines. And we even came home to a very clean and tidy home! We will definitely rebook with Michelle.

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 East Missoula 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 East Missoula 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 East Missoula 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.
