“Shawnee was amazing. I felt so safe leaving my doggy with her. I got picture updates as well which I thought was excellent. Definitely recommend her and will be booking her again to watch Hazy!”
“Jonathan was amazing with my elderly dog!! She has come back crippled from other places, but this time, she was bouncy and happy! He was great with all of her meds and her strict diet. Will definitely be sticking with Jonathan for our future boarding needs.”
“We were so pleased with Michelle! She watched our 3 dogs--each very different in their needs and energy level. She asked great questions and was very willing to administer medicine or cater to our older dog. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Wowow, from beginning to end, Lily was amazing. Hadn’t been able to leave town with peace of mind since adopting my dog 4 months ago. Saw good reviews and reached out and am so glad I did! Lily clearly knows and loves dogs, was an excellent communicator, was incredibly flexible and accommodating for drop off/pick up, and more than anything, I knew Franklin was safe and comfy while I was away. She sent regular updates, left us with a toy he loved, and I was greeted by a happy doggo! 10/10 will be using her again ❤️ ?”
“Danielle offers such a warm and inviting environment for dogs to feel right at home. She was super responsive and communicative and gave plenty of reassuring updates during our pups stay. Will definitely use her again and she comes highly recommended!”
“Ron was excellent. Great communication and confident enough to let my dog roam off leash for mountain and creek walks! He provided pictures of my girl, which always warms my heart.”
“Lisa took great care of our girl Rylee while we hiked around the GC rim and took a helicopter flight over the canyon. She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and videos. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah took excellent care of Zeke. She sent pictures often, which we loved. Sarah made sure to ask about his likes and preferences so he would be comfortable in a new space. She even sent him home with a new toy!”
About: ’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide overnight care for their pets. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies who need structure and play, as well as senior dogs who need patience and gentle attention. I focus on maintaining each pet’s routine and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize their well-being. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m happy to accommodate specific care instructions to keep your pet on their normal routine. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I also have a small, very friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pets and helps create a welcoming environment. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable. If needed, I can separate pets to ensure everyone’s safety. I maintain a clean, pet friendly home and can provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident while you’re away!
“Carlee was great and took amazing care of our Trapper pup! He felt right at home which was very comforting. He has so much fun he was exhausted. He would love to come back again! Thank you ?”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Helena
Sarah was very responsible with all text communication. She had a great attitude, and included our dog, Finley in all of her weekend activities. She sent pictures,messages, and videos to keep us informed. We appreciated Sarah very much and will contact her again for further services.
Morgan was great! She was communicative and kind, happily stopped by for a meet and great before I left town. She was flexible in working around my schedule and sent updates with pictures of my dog going on multiple walks, and generally having a great weekend! It was nice to know he was in capable hands while I was away. Will use her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Helena on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 29 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Helena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 MT 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.
