About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
“Alex was awesome and helped me get the pups out at my work while I had a day in the field. One of my pups needs medication, and he had no problem helping with that as well! Super appreciated his kindness!”
About: I love dogs! After losing two of my own pups, I’m not ready to be a full dog mom again, however I’d love to care for yours while you’re away. While you’re away you can leave your dog with me and I can guarantee the highest level of certainty and peace of mind. I’ll care for your dog like they are my own. I’ve watched small, medium, large dogs. Dogs that are low maintenance and dogs that need higher levels of attention. If my profile is active it is because I’m either available to watch your dog on weekends or I have extra availability. I can be flexible to your dogs schedule and needs. Currently I am not hosting dogs at my house. Only available for dog walks and house sitting. Again I can adapt to your dogs needs.
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds under my care since childhood! I have extensive experience with bigger dogs but also cats and fish. Currently, I walk, feed, and take care of dogs almost every day. I have a full time job from 4:00pm - 10:00pm Thursday - Monday. Therefore, I have a lot free time during the day before my shifts. However, with off-season approaching in the Valley, I expect to have much more time available. My typical day at the moment consists of a walk, hike, or some other form of exercise, and I would have no issue adding a dog to the mix. I am also available for house visits or at-home stays for any animal. :) I enjoy being active and alert, and animals always have my full attention whether they are my own or belong to someone else. I maintain cleanly living environments and pay attention to potentially poisonous foods or plants that could harm an animal. I have more extensive experience from bigger size dogs (>60 lbs,) so I am more than comfortable taking care of them and holding on a leash.
“Taylor was amazing with our two Newfies! She was very communicative and prompt and provided great updates and pictures after her visits. Highly recommend Taylor for your fur babies!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was in elementary school sitting for neighbors or friends friends. I also have a dog of my own! I am a current nighttime snowmaker at the Beaver Creek Ski Resort! I would love to take care of pups around town in my free time! I live near hiking trails and around a lot of residential streets. We have a golf course as a backyard for frisbee or ball games!
About: Want your dog to be tired and worn out after a fun day exploring? Then I'm the guy for you. Hiking and adventure is what our mountains are about and the dogs love it just as much as we do. I've had dogs and have been caring for them my whole life. Your dog and I would become best friends. I've got experience with young puppies as well as seniors. I also will watch cats if you need. Just contact me for more info. Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon! I work as a real estate broker and have the flexibility to let your dog out regularly and spend lots of time interacting with them. Yard out back for walks. Daily visits to the dog park and nature preserve half a mile from my house to go hike and play with other dogs.
About: Bill Murray says it best: “I’m suspicious of people who don’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like a person.” I’m an all-around absolute animal lover but there’s just that something about dogs that I drool over. Dogs understand me and I understand them, similar to whisperer status. I’ve been known to greet dogs before I acknowledge its human(s) but I know none of you blame me for that! Trust that I’ll treat your pup as if it’s my own human child, and because I don’t have one of those, I’m extremely grateful and tickled for the opportunity to share my love with your best fur friend(s). I genuinely look forward to our time together! [Friendly reminder: Rover takes 20% out of the services and gas cost is high.]
About: I have been a long time animal owner including dogs and cats from all ages. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled animals. I’m an all around animal person who also has experience with caring for exotic reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatic animals. I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care. I have had dogs of all sizes and age throughout my life and also currently have dogs and cats of my own. I take dogs out to exercise twice a day and have a spacious home with animal friends for your companion’s stay. Please let me know if you are interested! Pet care is my top priority and only focus. I’m not balancing this with other jobs. Caring for animals is what I love and what I do full-time. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I worked at the Boulder humane center for over five years as a certified dog handler and caretaker. I ran my own small business for dog walking and dog sitting with over 100 clients. Been on rover for a while, happily servicing dogs in the Bozeman Area! I am a recent grad with a passion for dogs! I studied engineering at MSU and pride myself on my time management and punctuality. I am working part time as a ski Instructor with a flexible schedule. This goes to say but if my calendar says I’m available, I am! I currently live in an house with a non fenced yard. We do live backed up to a park, and it is a great space to let any dog run around or do their business!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 412 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gilman. 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 Gilman. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
