“Quinn did a great job with my dog. I have a large Akita and she doesn’t like very many people. Quinn has a very gentle way of gaining the dogs trust and it showed in the many (much appreciated) pictures and videos that I would get daily. I will definitely use Quinn as my dog sitter again.”
“Annie was fantastic to work with and our animals loved her! She met with us before we left on our trip, which eased our minds, and sent us updates and fun photos while we were away. Layla got to play a lot of her favorite game - fetch - so we know that Annie is a favorite from her perspective. We will definitely ask Annie to sit again.”
“Traci did a fantastic job house sitting for us and had great communication. She provided daily photos and was very accommodating for our dog. Would definitely recommend!”
“Logan was amazing with our senior dog plus four cats. She fulfilled everyone's individual needs with care and confidence, allowing our family to enjoy an off-grid vacation without worries. Great communication from first contact and throughout our time away. Left our home clean and tidy. I will 100% rebook and provide any recommendations for Logan as an excellent pet and house sitter!”
“Shaelyn is attentive, patient, dependable and she provides updates and photos. I know my boy is in great hands when I'm gone and she had the magic touch when it came to gaining his trust.”
“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!!”
“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.”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and all since I was young. There has always been a dog or cat in my home and I understand the importance these little critters have in our lives! I am ready to accommodate to whatever you and your pet may need! As a college student, my schedule may be busy but is also extremely adjustable! From house sitting with your pet to drop in visits, your pet will receive the care they deserve and the kind that will put your mind at peace! I believe in my three E's of caretaking. Eat: Whatever the situation or meal plan, animals should be taken care of on time and properly! If your pet has any accommodations such as medication, specific eating times or dietary restrictions let me know and I will ensure they are happy and full! Engage: Whether its nap time or running around, your pet deserves an engaged environment where they feel happy and looked after! This means whatever kind of attention your pet prefers, I also prefer! Easy: This process should be easy for not just your pet, but also you. If there is anything I can do for either you or your pet, please let me know!
“Corbin was awesome! Incredibly communicative and on top of things. He was so good about asking questions and checking in, and making sure Maisie was well taken care of. Maisie had a great time with him.”
About: Excellent references. Experienced with a variety of breeds/ages/sizes, specific care and feeding requirements, administering medication, transporting to veterinarian, thorough cleaning of indoor/outdoor pet areas, loving care always. Providing indoor and outdoor supervision, walking, play time, feeding, medication, cleanup. I look forward to helping you and your pet! Thank you for your consideration! At this time, I am not providing pet boarding at my home. If this becomes a possibility in the future, I will add it to my services.
“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!”
“I appreciated that Hallie traveled from Big Sky to Bozeman everyday to take care of my pets and home. My pets were happy and healthy when we returned. My house was left neat and clean. Hallie is a reliable sitter.”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“April was fantastic! Our cat was so happy to have her stay at our house. Her communication was great and I loved the photo updates. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. It was clear she spent som real time with our kitty and we are so grateful!”
“Chloe was awesome with my temperamental cat who is older and not the easiest to get along with. She was extremely flexible and communicative from the first time I messaged her and even went out of her way to return my extra key before the stay when I realized I briefly needed it back. Left my place very clean and my cat relaxed and comfortable during a heat wave. I would recommend her if you also have a cat who needs a lot of patience and personal space.”
“Christine did a wonderful job watching our 9yo corgi Huck and house over a long two-week trip. Great communication, before and during the stay. And we returned to a happy dog and tidy home. Would highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Lily was amazing! We booked last minute with her and she thoroughly surpassed our expectations. She was comfortable supporting our reactive dog and very accommodating to both our dogs and cat’s needs. She made sure they were comfortable, eating enough, getting exercise and play time. She sent many photos and kept me updated throughout. She eased my anxiety leaving our pups for the first extended period of time, we felt so reassured knowing she was loving and caring for our boys like her own! She was also very thoughtful in her questions and care for our home. We will book with her 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.
Noah has watched our pups twice now. He has been great to work with. He is very communicative, sends lots of photos and updates. He is fun and even our shy pup has warmed up to him. Noah responds well to feedback. He is trustworthy and reliable. I would recommend Noah to anybody looking for a good pet sitter.
Ceder took great care of Chevron while I was away. She sent me updates and photos throughout the week and left my house in great shape! She worked around Chevron's quirks and needs and made sure she got exercise every day. It's such a relief to know my girl is being cared for lovingly while I'm away!

FAQs for House Sitting - East Missoula
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Missoula on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 290 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Missoula. 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 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.
Tip: 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Missoula. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
