“Claire was a wonderful cat sitter! She was communicative, attentive, dependable, and thorough. For our cats, having Claire visit daily was a far better option than boarding them. Her daily report card included photos, which we appreciated. We will definitely call Claire in the future.”

“Jamie did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats! She was reliable, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. She even helped us navigate an unexpected situation when the cats managed to escape into the attic! We really appreciated her flexibility, communication, and willingness to help. We would absolutely recommend Jamie and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I always tell my clients that I will treat their animals like my own. I want your pets experience to feel comforting, enjoyable, and reliable. I have pet sit for 8 years now. I fit it in mostly on weekends now that I have a dog of my own but I could potentially do it full time in the near future. I want to state that I do not stay overnight with your dog but will give them the needed attention and care multiple times a day and be right back to do the same the following day. I have a fenced in yard for my dog and a doggy door for her to let herself in and out during the day. I don’t leave her longer than 5 hours. I believe pets thrive off of human interaction and we are their best friend and all they know. Trust in me to give your pet a good time while you’re away. I will work off of you and your pets needs.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since COVID. I’ve pet sat and house sat for many other pet owners in the past. I have lot of experience with cats and dogs since I currently have four cats and two dogs. I have experience with pets with health problems as one of my cats is prone to UTIs. Im currently a stay at home girlfriend who just focuses on renovating our home with various house projects, playing and taking care of our lil zoo, and works on mysmall business. Since I do everything for myself, my partner, or our animals I have a very flexible schedule. I am clean and tidy and more than happy to adhere to any rules that pet parents might have. If walks or potty breaks are needed I’m more than happy to get out stretch my legs and can even offer playtime for dogs or cats who think they’re dogs.

About: Ever since I was a kid, I would beg my neighbors to let me bathe, brush, walk, or even just play with their dogs. When I was about 16, I decided I wanted to do dog grooming. Since then, my career path has shifted into being a hairstylist, but a goal I have is to get into dog grooming in the future. I will do my very best to give your pets the best experience with me as possible! I’m currently working part time in a hair salon. but on my days off I would love to spend my free time showing your pets love and keep them safe while you’re away💞 While your pets are in my care, they will be separated from any other pets unless friendly with others. If you have any medication or other medical needs for your pet, I am able to take care of those needs!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s grown up with both cats and dogs. I currently care for three dogs and four cats at home which means I’m pretty used to all kinds of personalities, from the shy ones to the goofy zoomy ones. I bring patience, reliable care, and a calm presence to every visit! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding on weekends and weekdays . When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of their space and routines. I’ll follow your instructions closely, provide plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures through out the day!

About: hiii! I was an animal shelter volunteer for a little over 7 years! I am very comfortable around all types of animals, poop etc. doesn’t bother me either! I think a person watching your animals shouldn’t just “watch” them but spend quality time with them! It can be scary for animals being left with an unfamiliar face so making the experience as enjoyable as possible ensures that they will be more comfortable next time! i also already go to the dog park every other day and sometimes every day! we absolutely love going (me and my dog sookie)!! I am a college student but thankfully all my classes are online! I don’t typically prefer weekends but if needed then I will be there! I am free 90% of the time! For the cats I have plenty of scratch posts and things they can play with. I also have cats of my own they love making friends! For dogs, I have a crate and large backyard with a lead post! they are allowed on couches and the bed if they want to go that route! Animals will show clear signs of discomfort and my responsibility is to listen and adhere to that

Such a great experience! Alana was thoughtful, attentive, and went above and beyond while caring for my cat. I especially appreciated that she noticed my prescription medication needed to be refrigerated and took the initiative to put it in the fridge before leaving. It was such a considerate gesture and really speaks to her attention to detail and genuine care. I would absolutely recommend Alana!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Helena

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Helena is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $33 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 October 2026, there are 423 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Helena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 , 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.
