“Another great visit by Kate! She was so sweet with the doggies and brought them toys to play with! I had a lot of instructions because one of my dogs can be food aggressive, and she followed them perfectly and made sure I was able to enjoy my weekend away with no worries! Thank you so much Kate!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 15+ years. I used to work for a pet sitting service, and have had dogs of my own as well. I currently work full time Monday- Friday. I can provide early morning check ins as well as evenings during the weekdays. I’m available weekends as well. I will make sure your dogs are well cared for and get exercise. I will walk them, play with them, and make sure to follow any schedule they have.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was nine years old. I am comfortable with big dogs (grew up with wolf hybrids and Great Pyrenees) and love to spend time with kitties. I have experience caring for sick and diabetic cats. I work from home three days a week and would absolutely love to spend my day making sure your furry friends have good company. I work as a reporter, so my schedule can be a tad unpredictable at times, but as long as we have a set understanding I wll make sure to be there for your loved ones I cannot offer a place to stay at my apartment (not allowed in my lease) but am more than happy to come to you and yours.
About: I am a helicopter mom to a sweet fat cat, and know the importance and anxiety that comes with hiring someone to care for my pet. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different personalities, ages, and energy levels, and I understand that every animal has their own routine and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, providing fresh water, giving plenty of attention, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family and take their care and well-being seriously. I work full time during the week but I am intentional about making time for pet care throughout my day. I’m able to take breaks for check-ins, walks, feeding, and giving pets some attention and playtime. Evenings and weekends I have more flexibility to spend quality time with them and keep up with their normal routines. I’m responsible and reliable, and I’ll always make sure a pet’s needs are taken care of. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow their feeding, walking, playtime, and medication routines as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m respectful of the client’s home and make sure everything is left clean and secure. My goal is to keep pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away, with as little disruption to their routine as possible.
“Lily did an excellent job looking after our dogs and horses! We were able to leave them with total peace of mind, knowing they were in good hands. I’m picky when it comes to who watches our fur babies…we will continue to use Lily whenever we can book with her!”
“Jason was very helpful with my Senior dog, Arthur. Amazing commutation. He almost had to had a minor heart attack when Arthur didn't come down from his sleeping spot, but he went the extra mile to search for him. He was just super passed out. Thanks again, Jason!”
About: Hello, it's nice to meet you! I absolutely adore animals, and often prefer to hangout with them most of the time which is why I chose to make a job out of it. I've had animals my whole life, but I've been taking care of other peoples animals since I was 13 years old. At first I just took care of my neighbors chickens, then their friends dogs and horses, then their friends until next thing I new I had a little part time job. I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, and some livestock such as goats and cows. I am a recent Carroll College graduate with a bachelors in English Literature. Apart from my love of literature, I personally own two of my own horses, and of course a little corgi and a golden retriever that I take everywhere with me! So even on my down time, I'm always surrounded by my furry friends and a few good books. In 2019, I had the opportunity to start work at a doggy daycare, SkyHi, in my hometown, Helena, where I worked for 4 years. It was at SkyHi where I learned more about dog handling, behavior, training, and overall group management. At SkyHi I often had playgroups of 16-18 dogs where I learned how to not only handle the chaos but have some fun, too! I also had the opportunity to take some equine and canine anthrozoology classes at Carroll College where I learned even more about animal behavior and management. Basically anything that involves animals, I'm your girl ;) ! Since I do live by myself, I usually always have my corgi, Winter, and my golden, Moonfrost, with me wherever I go. Both have grew up coming to doggy-daycare, puppy classes, the barn, dorm rooms, and just about anywhere else you can think of with me. They're very friendly and love playing with all types of different dogs. They are my little partners in crime! If your dogs are chill with having them around and would be comfortable with letting her stay the night for house sitting, let me know! If not, I can make other arrangements for her which is no big deal at all! Just let me know when you make your reservation. If you have elderly dogs, puppies, cats, or an animal that requires a lot more attention, I will adjust my rates accordingly. Just let me know what your animals need and we can figure it out! I'm a busy gal so if I don't respond to a message right away, don't worry! When I'm with your dogs, they are my top priority, but on other days if you message me, I'm probably taking care of someone else's furry friends or I'm at the barn with my horses and I'm not on my phone that much! I'll respond to you as soon as I'm able! I currently work full time in the evenings which means I have plenty of time during the mornings to play with your pups! I usually work 6-8 hours shifts and usually ride my horses in the evening, which means I am out of the house at least part of the day. Dogs who can be alone for part of the day would be preferable but if you need someone to stay with your pup for most of the day, I can make that happen and request time off, but I'll need advance notice and might change my rates accordingly. I've worked on the other side of the boarding industry, and know how stressful it can be to send a dog to a boarding facility. My goal is to make your dog have the least stressful time as possible. I will try to stick to their exact routine, which includes their food, walks, playtime, and anything else you'd like me to do while you're away. For drop ins, walks, and or hikes, I like to make sure I've got a good relationship with the pup. My goal is for your dog to remain happy and safe while you're away!

“Johanna did an amazing job taking care of my pup while I was out of town. Handled everything that came up with ease and kept me in the loop the entire time. Plus took super cute pictures of my pup which I enjoyed seeing while I was away. 10/10”

About: Need some exercise for the fur ball, big or small? Let me get those steps in while you relax. I have experience with overnights as well and have dealt with high and low energy dogs. Excited to add to the resume and look forward to working with you! I am currently working an 8-5 job during the weekdays. I have to travel a bit, but find myself around home most of the time. Looking to assist in the evenings, weekends, and overnights if possible! I will always respect your boundaries for any in home care and can taxi the pooches if necessary. I do not have my own travel amenities in terms of carriers and such, but I provide my own leashes for walks.
About: I have years of experience with every kind of dog. I am a dog sport competitor and trainer and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I have trained and worked with working and service dogs, pet dogs, puppies, and seniors! I love taking dogs out in nature and helping them have a good time. I’m currently working halftime as an office manager and have a lot of time to spend with your pet! My schedule is extremely flexible, but I am especially open during the afternoon and evening. I am able to check in on pets, spend time with them at your house, or take them out on walks. I have two Golden Retrievers that may join along if the situation allows it. Very early mornings, afternoons, and evenings are open for me.
About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I've built a reputation as the sitter friends and family turn to when they need someone they can truly trust. Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats gave me an intuitive understanding of pet behavior, and over the years I've cared for digs of all sizes from gentle giants to tiny lap dogs, anxious rescues to energetic puppies. What makes me different is my versatility and adaptability. I'm equally comfortable managing multi-dog households, caring for dogs and cats simultaneously, and adjusting to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether you have a senior dog requiring gentle, patient care or a high-energy breed that needs extra playtime, I know how to read their cues and provide exactly what they need to feel safe and loved. My experience with diverse breeds and household dynamics means I can handle whatever curveballs your pets might throw! I take pride in maintaining each pet's individual routine while ensuring harmony in multi-pet homes. You'll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are not just being watched, but truly cared for by someone who understands that every pet is someone's beloved companion. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet's needs. Having recently moved to Helena, I'm excited to build lasting relationships with local pet owners and become a trusted part of this community. My open availability means I can easily accommodate various scheduling needs - whether you need morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight stays, or last-minute care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet sitting never feels like work to me. It's actually the highlight of my day! I'm happy to work around your pet's established routine and can be flexible with timing to ensure they receive consistent, reliable care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict schedule or is more go-with-the-flow, I'll adapt to what works best for them and your family! I believe the key to excellent pet care is maintaining consistency with your pet's established routine and household rules. When caring for pets in your home, I take detailed notes about their daily schedule, feeding times, favorite spots, and any house rules—whether that means staying off certain furniture or having free rein of the couch. Your pet's comfort stems from familiarity, so I ensure that nothing changes from their normal routine. I provide the same level of attentive care - regular exercise, plenty of affection, and constant supervision. I also maintain open communication throughout, sending updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is settling in and enjoying their time with me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fort Harrison is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 110 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Harrison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Harrison. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
