“Elizabeth was amazing! My dog stayed at her home, was loved like family, and I came back to the happiest pup. As a first-time sitter user, it was completely stress-free and put my mind at ease.”

“Sherri is the best dog mom ever!! Totally lives your dog and I could not have been more comfortable leaving my pup with her. If you need pup sitting in Bigfork then consider this your only option! Thanks Sherri!”

“First time leaving my Aussies with Shannon and I wouldn’t have wanted to send them to anyone else! Always kept me updated and treated them so well. Very grateful :)”

“Sunnee took wonderful care of Georgie overnight! We felt completely comfortable leaving her and knew she was in good hands. We would definitely trust Sunnee to watch her again!”

“So glad I found Olivia to watch our dog while we were gone! Great at communicating and her yard is so great for dogs to run and play safely! My dog came home happy and tired from having so much fun playing! We already rebooked for a future trip and will book more in the future if needed!”

“Zoie was an absolutely incredible dog sitter. Five stars does not feel like enough. She sent frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave me a great deal of peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive and proactive, reaching out when one of my dogs was whining so we could work together to figure out what he needed. My two dogs have special needs. One is blind and takes daily medication, and the other is deaf. Caring for them requires patience, attention, and flexibility, and Zoie handled it all with kindness and confidence for more than a week. It was clear from the beginning that she genuinely cared about their well being. I also made a mistake with my travel plans, and Zoie graciously kept them an extra night without hesitation. When they ran out of food before their new shipment arrived, she made sure they were fed and cared for until it did. One of my dogs even came home with a toy he became completely obsessed with, which was such a thoughtful gesture and a reflection of how much attention she paid to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Zoie consistently went above and beyond. She was not just a five star sitter. She was a ten. I would trust her with my dogs again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“Morgan was amazing and took Ellie on very short notice. Ellie was happy and exhausted from a fun day when picked up. She also sent photos through the day which eased the day.”

“Andy was so helpful with our senior guy Koji and our crazy one Sesame! He also facilitated a drop off for us. He kept us well informed with photos and messages. We would definitely use Andy again!”

“Oh my goodness! Neville and Ned had the best time with Vicki and Clint. They were treated so well and loved. Our fur babies love to be with their humans and you could tell they were very happy because when we picked them up they greeted us but then went back for more cuddles with V and C🥰🥰🥰🥰”

About: I’m kinda a mother hen when it comes to my fur babies. You can be worry free when you trust me to care for your babies! I have 1 acre fenced yard to run and play safely, lots of toys, sprinklers to play in during the hot summer months. I am perfectly capable of administering medications as needed. I also live right up the street from my Vet in case of emergency. I’m newly retired and need to do something from home . I love all animals and have the perfect environment to watch and entertain your pups I have a 1 acre fenced yard. I have one dog and one cat that thinks she’s a dog that are very friendly. I also want to keep it to a 3 to 4 small to medium sized dog minimum so that they get the care that they need.
“My dog has never felt more comfortable with a rover as he has with Lucy! She was attentive and caring to my dogs needs and her own dog is very friendly. Would highly recommend booking with Lucy!”

“Whitney was amazing with my girl, James. She was incredibly patient, sent lots of photos and updates, and took such great care of her. What I appreciated most was Whitney’s honesty. When James was struggling to adjust, she didn’t avoid the conversation—she communicated openly and thoughtfully, which gave me so much confidence that James was in the best hands. I would absolutely book with Whitney again and highly recommend her!”

“Shauna was great. She has a fantastic fenced back yard with lots of shady spots to hang out. From the first moment we met it was very clear to me that Shauna truly loves dogs! I was very pleased and will most certainly have her sit Tucker again. Thank you Shauna.”

“Brycen was great! We have a 1.5 year old chocolate lab with a lot of energy. We received updates about how our puppy was doing. She also seemed happy when we went to pick her up. Would recommend Brycen!”

“Alyssa is truly incredible! We fully trusted her with the care of our dog for 2 nights and 3 days while we went to explore the east side of Glacier National Park! She continuously sent me photos and updates of how she was doing and our dog loved playing with her dog! I could not recommend Alyssa enough, she is incredibly nice, thoughtful, great at communicating and I feel lucky to have found someone to trust taking care of our dog ☺️”

“Daniel was wonderful! Super communicative and took great care of my pup while I was out of town. He sent pictures every day of their outings and I could tell my dog was having a blast. I definitely plan to use Daniel again!”

“Alaina and her husband took great care of my dog while out of town. They are very friendly, respond quickly and have dogs of their own who got along with mine. She sent photos and updates daily. I will use them again.”

About: I am a full time Physical Therapist living in Whitefish with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I absolutely love animals. I am active and love the outdoors, so I will be more than happy to run or walk your dog as needed. I've been caring for animals since I was in high school and have had experience with all shapes, sizes, and ages. That being said, I have no problem giving medications, training, etc. I am quick to respond to calls/texts and give updates regularly while owners are away or at work and so forth. My goal is to go through your animals’ daily routine as closely as possible. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be in contact with you as well as your pets soon! I’m currently working full time as a Physical Therapist and have some flexibility in my schedule to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pup. I work 8-10 hour days and if the location is right, can drop by over lunch for a potty break if needed. I will care for your pet at your home as close as possible to their regular schedule. If a walk morning and night is needed, they’ll get it. If snuggling on the couch is more important, we’ll do it!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ferndale home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Ferndale.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Ferndale sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
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.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
