“Katie is AMAZING. Took such good care of my fur child. All the kids and doggos spoiled my dog with cuddles and attention. She was easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures, and allowed us to do a meet and greet first. Will absolutely use her in the future.”

“Kyler was very responsive and made us feel so comfortable leaving our two German Shepard with her for the first time. I appreciated how she received the dogs and helped them get acclimated before introducing them to the other sweet pups in her care. She was great with updates and we loved all the pictures she sent. She even provided some special treats for our pups on their last morning which pictures proved they thoroughly enjoyed! We had a great experience with Kyler and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“Kimberley and her family were wonderful hosts for Bailey!!!! We had a meet and greet first, and she was very gentle with Bailey with the introduction of her other two cute pups!

She has become definitely my number 1 rover sitter!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bleu!!! Ryan was great with Bleu, he sent photo updates, answered and replied to all my questions which gave me peace of mind. We had to change the dates bc we had an emergency and missed our flight. Ryan was so flexible and understanding. Ryan also has a lovely Mom and Dad, they’re a wonderful family and Bleu literally didn’t want to leave. I was shocked!! Im definitely booking Ryan again!!! Even if we arent going out of town I’ll be booking again just so she can visit her friend!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Helena
Kyler took super good care of Apollo and Athena. We received many hilarious photos each day with an update as well. Kyler also baked special treats for our dogs, which they absolutely loved. It was very reassuring to know that they were in such good care (and having so much fun) during our beach trip!
Carli is very sweet and accommodating to your needs! This was our first time using Rover and had a terrific experience. She checked in multiple times throughout the day with updates and pictures of our girls. She has a wonderful demeanor and attitude for pet sitting and followed instructions clearly, even accommodating to changes. We will absolutely be using her in the future!
Alex and her family were absolutely incredible and I cannot begin to thank them enough. Our regular sitter cancelled on us last minute and we needed to find someone ASAP to watch our two boys for 8 nights over Christmas. Not only was Alex available on such short notice, but she invited me and the dogs to come visit her before our stay which completely reassured me and helped alleviate my fears that the dogs would be somewhere new for such a long stay. She sent pictures and videos every day and was wonderful to communicate with. It was so nice knowing my dogs were being loved on and taken care. Thank you SO much Alex!! ❤️🥰

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Helena on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 336 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Helena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of Helena sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Helena landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Helena 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 Helena.
Tip: 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 Helena 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 AL 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.
