Skylar took care of my two kitties for a weekend and was incredibly attentive, left detailed report cards on them, and took time to get them out of their shells since they can both be a bit shy! One of my boys, who hides any time other people come over, even came out to say hi to him a couple of times and he got him to play! I highly recommend Skylar.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my calm, patient, and gentle approach to each dog. I pay close attention to their body language, needs, and comfort. I'm especially good with puppies who need gentle guidance and basic training, as well as with older dogs who require more leisurely walks, extra care, and a loving, comforting presence. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with the same kindness, respect, and affection I would want for my own. I recently moved and have free time since I have online classes during the week on alternate schedules, so I have time to play with your little ones and shower them with warmth and attention. Within my family, three of them are a furry friend named Balu who is 7 years old, a cat named Copito who is 6 years old, and a kitten named Lucas who is 5 years old. I am used to taking care of them and keeping them under constant supervision, not only in their diet but also in their physical and emotional well-being.

Abigail took great care of Cinders and Pepper whole their owners were away for the weekend. She followed all care instructions, gave them their medications, and spent a good deal of time with them so they didn't get lonely. We'll definitely think of Abigail again for next time!

The peace of mind Amanda brought to our whole family during an overseas trip cannot be overstated. We have a special needs kitty and we came home to a happy, energetic cat that never seemed to skip a beat. She routinely sent us photos and notes on her visit. She left our house clean and organized… easing the return. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone and we will surely lock in with her during our next holiday!!! So very thankful for her caring spirit….

About: I've had pets my whole life and know how much it matters to leave yours somewhere you trust. Your dog will be part of the household here — not crated in a back room — with plenty of attention, a regular routine, and photo updates so you know how the day is going. A few things to know about my setup: I have a yard, but it isn't fenced, so all potty breaks and outdoor time are leashed and supervised. Never off-leash. I have one dog of my own, a friendly female Bernedoodle named Dorothy. She's good with other dogs, and I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet first to make sure everyone gets along. I work from home, so your dog won't be alone for long stretches. Comfortable with puppies, senior dogs with special needs, and everything in between. For walks, I'll stick to whatever route and pace your dog is used to, and I'll let you know how it went. Happy to set up a free meet-and-greet before booking anything. My schedule is completely my own so I can tailor my day to what your dog is used to. Our usual routine is a walk/run in the morning and a walk with the whole family in the evening. Dorothy is crate trained and so can be right next to your dog to keep them company. I have a good sized yard where I can let the dogs out on leashes and a fenced in deck if they want to be outside. I live 5 minutes from an animal hospital and am used to the random ailments that come with taking care of dogs.

Melinda was very easy and pleasant to work with from start to finish. We felt very comfortable having our dog in her care which made for a stress-free vacation for us. We could tell from the pictures Melinda took that our girl was happy and and from the notes that she was well cared for. Would happily hire Melinda again.

About: I've been cat and dog sitting since 2016, staying at friends and family members' homes to provide care for pets while they're away. From that experience, I've learned about feeding, walking, and giving attention to each pet's needs. I'm always curious to learn more about them and being a reliable pet sitter for the family. I also like to volunteer at the local animal shelter. I work fully remote. Sometimes, I go in the office if needed, but my schedule is pretty flexible. I can stop by after work or stay overnight during the week. I just need a heads up at least 3+ days prior to make sure it works with my schedule. I prefer to stay at the client's home while they're away, so the pets can stay comfortable in their familiar space and get attention during the day.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was in middle school and love spending time with them! I love having conversations with them and learning their personalities :( I currently work a full time job and I am only available on weekends. My weekends are typically completely free so my schedule is very flexible and I can be an early riser or a night owl! I am used to having to give space when they are anxious or being high energy to match their excitement. I always approach them with a soft tone to know that they are safe and I love giving treats to win their hearts over!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages- as well as puppies. I grew up in a household that bred border collies so I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs and puppies! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time to assist in whatever need you have for your fur baby/babies! I have a 5 year old daughter but she goes to school during the day! I follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. That includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep your pet’s routine consistent. My priority is always safety, comfort, and lots of love.

Paige took care of our cat for 2 weeks. We have only great things to say about her. She is a very reliable, responsible, punctual, trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She followed all our instructions and sent us daily updates with pictures. We knew that our cat was in good hands, because she looked very relaxed and comfortable around Paige. We will definitely reach out to Paige again to look after our cat and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter. Thank you, Paige!

About: Growing up, I was always the kid that would ask every person I passed walking their dog down the street if I could pet their dog. I have been an animal lover since I was young. My family got my first dog when I was four years old. She was a Black Lab-Weimaraner mix named Colby. Our newest addition to the family is Brenner, she is a five year old Pitbull-Hound mix full of energy. We got Brenner when she was 8 weeks old, so I had the wonderful joy of seeing her grow up and help raise her. Given my experience of growing up with these dogs, I am well equipped in taking care of any dog breed, no matter the size, big or small. In addition to taking care of my own animals, I have dog walked for friends and family on numerous occasions. I work full-time 8AM-5PM, Monday-Friday. I am available early mornings at 6-7AM and evenings 6PM and beyond during this workweek. I have all day availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I am able to take your dog for short/long walks and play with/feed them once in the morning and once in evening in their own environment at your house.

About: I've pet sit for my friends dogs and have raised a corgi puppy from 10 weeks old! I love dogs and will treat yours like mine. I have a playful and friendly corgi who plays well with all dogs. Plus I give excellent scratches. I will send a bunch of photos, as long as you don’t mind me spamming you with them! We do at least 3 walks a day, dog parks after work, and fun adventures on the weekends. Normally we eat breakfast around 8:30, go for a potty walk, and play. During the weekday, I take them out every 4 hours and do mental puzzles at home. If the weather is nice, we will go to a nearby dog park. On weekends, we tend to go out for outdoor adventures if the weather is nice I live in an apartment with ample walking nearby. Super dog friendly neighborhood. We have space to set up crates if needed. I am a neat person and will clean up after myself and the dogs.

Joy took excellent care of our aging dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Most importantly, when a last-minute emergency came up on our end, Joy went out of her way to help us, making significant changes to her plans for the day to make sure Maya was cared for. We are so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Joy was the best!

We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for our two kids (one 8 years old and one 16+ years)! Not only did Yvette take excellent care of our dogs, but she also went above and beyond to ensure we were kept updated on their well-being throughout our time away. Her thoughtful updates and attention to detail made us feel completely at ease. In addition to caring for our pets, Yvette also looked after our home, keeping everything tidy and secure so we could travel without any worries. It's rare to find someone who treats your pets like their own, cares for your house, and exceeds every expectation. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated dog sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Great Falls on Rover is $38.85 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 15,771 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Great Falls. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Great Falls stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Great Falls 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!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Great Falls with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Great Falls. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
