“Morgan did a terrific job looking after our pup while we were in Glacier National Park. He came back to our RV tuckered out from his day of play. Morgan was also accommodating and willing to be flexible with us if we ran over time an needed an overnight stay. She's a great option if you're in the Kalispell area.”

“Immediately upon meeting Madison I knew I made a great sitter choice for my pup, Totem. She was so kind and showed me around her yard and home while the dogs introduced themselves. I felt so comfortable leaving Totem with her for the day and she sent plenty of photo updates! Totem was so happy and slept the whole drive home. Thanks Madison!”

About: Passionate Dog Trainer/Walker Ready to go on Adventures Hello there! My name is Zoro, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as your friendly neighborhood dog trainer/walker. With a heart full of love for all our furry friends, I cannot wait to embark on exciting adventures with your beloved canine companion. My journey as a dog walker began years ago when I discovered my deep-rooted connection with animals. Growing up surrounded by pets, I quickly realized that spending time with dogs brought me unparalleled joy and fulfillment. From that moment on, I knew that my purpose in life was to provide exceptional care and support to our four-legged friends. When it comes to my dog walking philosophy, I believe in nurturing not only physical well-being but also emotional happiness for our furry pals. My primary goal is to create a safe and stimulating environment where dogs can thrive, explore, and have an absolute ball during our walks together. With an innate understanding of canine behavior, I am adept at tailoring my approach to cater to the unique needs and personalities of each dog I encounter. Whether it's a high-energy pooch who craves a vigorous run in the park or a more mellow companion who prefers a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood, I am committed to providing a customized experience that leaves their tail wagging with joy. Safety is my top priority, and you can rest assured that your furry friend will be in capable hands under my care. I am well-versed in canine first aid and CPR, and I maintain a keen eye for potential hazards during our outings. I am also experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring that even the most timid or boisterous canines feel secure and comfortable throughout our walks. In addition to the physical exercise aspect, I strongly believe in the power of mental stimulation for dogs. I incorporate engaging activities, such as interactive games and puzzle toys, to keep their minds sharp and active. Whether it's sniffing out hidden treats or practicing basic obedience commands, I'm always on the lookout for opportunities to make our time together both fun and mentally enriching. Above all, I strive to build trusting relationships not only with the dogs I walk but also with their human companions. Open and transparent communication is key to providing the best care possible, and I am always available to discuss any concerns, requests, or special instructions you may have. Your dog's well-being and happiness are of utmost importance to me, and I am committed to going the extra mile to ensure their needs are met. So, if you're searching for a dog walker who combines boundless enthusiasm, unwavering dedication, and a genuine love for dogs, look no further! Let's join forces and embark on a tail-wagging adventure together. Contact me today, and let's schedule a meet-and-greet to see if I'm the perfect fit for your four-legged friend. Together, we'll create pawsome memories that will last a lifetime! I work from anywhere I have mostly answer phone calls for my business. Which gives me time to take care of dogs. Train them and take them on adventures. When it comes to caring for pets in either my home or my client's home, I ensure that their well-being, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. The specific care provided may vary depending on the service I offer, so let's delve into both scenarios: Caring for pets in my home: If I offer services where pets stay with me, I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment that replicates a home-like atmosphere. Here's how I care for pets in my home: 1. Comfortable accommodations: I provide a cozy space for pets to relax, ensuring they have a comfortable bed or a designated area where they can unwind. 2. Regular feeding and hydration: I adhere to the feeding schedule provided by the pet owner and make sure fresh water is readily available at all times. Special dietary needs or medication administration will be strictly followed as instructed. 3. Exercise and playtime: I engage pets in stimulating activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. Whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or enjoying interactive toys, I ensure they receive the exercise and mental stimulation they require. 4. Regular potty breaks and hygiene: I maintain a consistent bathroom schedule, taking pets outside for potty breaks. I also provide regular grooming, including brushing, bathing, and nail trims, if necessary. 5. Safety and supervision: I create a secure environment, free from potential hazards, and monitor pets closely to ensure their safety at all times. I supervise their interactions with other pets, if applicable, to ensure a peaceful and harmonious environment. Caring for pets in the client's home: If I offer services where I visit the client's home to care for their pets, my approach revolves around maintaining their routine and surroundings. Here's how I care for pets in their own homes: 1. Adhering to routines: I strive to follow the established routines provided by the pet owner, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions for their care. 2. Feeding and medication administration: I ensure pets receive their meals according to the provided schedule and administer any necessary medications as instructed. 3. Exercise and enrichment: I engage pets in physical activities tailored to their needs, whether it's going for walks, playing in the yard, or engaging in interactive play. I also provide mental stimulation through puzzles, toys, and positive reinforcement training. 4. Maintaining cleanliness: I keep the pet's living areas clean and tidy, including regular litter box cleaning for cats or ensuring a clean outdoor space for dogs. 5. Security and well-being: I make sure the home is secure during my visits, ensuring doors and windows are properly closed and locked. I also keep a watchful eye for any potential signs of distress or health issues in the pets and report any concerns to the owner promptly. Overall, my goal is to provide a loving and attentive environment, whether in my home or the client's home, ensuring that pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for in every possible way.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Elmo

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.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Elmo commute.

If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.

Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.

A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.

Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:

  • For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
  • For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
  • For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in MT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.

To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

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.


Don't let your 9-to-5 stop you from being a great pet parent. When you're heading to work, drop off your beloved pet with a loving dog sitter near you. Your dog will get the love and care they're used to at home, and you'll get photo updates and the peace of mind that comes from finding great care for your pet. We're proud to offer a wide range of pet care, including puppy day care and pet day care for all kinds of pets. We know you love your pets, but you can't always be there, which is where our loving sitters come in. Forget kennels, find a loving neighbor who will give your dog the one-on-one attention they deserve. That way, when you head to work, you know your dog's in good hands.
