“We are so grateful for the care Oliana provided for our sweet kitty, Sybil. Oliana sent pictures every day which helped ease our minds while we were away. She was also very easy to communicate with. We will definitely book with Oliana again!”
“Kate was awesome! She stepped in last minute when someone canceled on me and brought my fur mama mind at ease! The pups enjoyed her company and I loved the picture updates she provided! I will definitely rebook her as well as 10/10 recommend her!”
“Dee took such amazing care of my dogs. For my first time using Rover, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She went above and beyond my expectations and was so pleasant!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and a garden my entire life. I started helping out with animals since I have been ten and it has always been one of my favorite tasks to do. My family has several large dogs, cats, chickens, hogs, and occasional steers so there is no animal too big or too small I can’t handle. My dad is particularly enthusiastic about gardening and my mom grows flower baskets so I would consider myself a pro at watering and making sure everything is on schedule. I am from Helena and I’m going to be a sophomore at Carroll College. I’m pursuing an engineering degree and I’m on the cross-country and track team. I’m the morning before school I enjoy going for a walk to start my day. During the day I’m in town at school or at practice which means I won’t be able to visit your home midday. My typical evenings are filled with homework which is when I spend the most time with animals. After doing homework, I enjoy going for a walk to unwind and calm down from the day. I like to wake up early and get going for the day; this allows me to take a walk in the morning to get the blood flowing. Once I’m in town, it stay in town until school at practice is over which is about from 9:00 to 5:30 but no later then 6:15. Once done with school I head home and do homework and spend time around the house. Once homework is done, I typically go for a walk to unwind from the day.
“Shelbie was great with my dogs, very communicative and respectful of my home! I could tell my dogs felt comfortable around her and that she truly loves animals from the pictures she sent.”
“Lani took very good care of our chickens and cat while we were on a trip. We were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about our furry and feathered buddies :) We will happily use her services again if she’s still available! Thanks Lani!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter while we were away for two weeks! She took such terrific care of our cat and gave us complete peace of mind the entire time. She was attentive, reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about our cat's comfort and well-being. We loved receiving updates and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
About: Need some exercise for the fur ball, big or small? Let me get those steps in while you relax. I have experience with overnights as well and have dealt with high and low energy dogs. Excited to add to the resume and look forward to working with you! I am currently working an 8-5 job during the weekdays. I have to travel a bit, but find myself around home most of the time. Looking to assist in the evenings, weekends, and overnights if possible! I will always respect your boundaries for any in home care and can taxi the pooches if necessary.

“Fable had previously watched our dog and watched our cat this time. She made time for us even though it was short notice. She took really good care of him and he even climbed up in her lap to get some pets.”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own back home. Both dogs being larger breed dogs I’ve had since they were puppies. I’ve worked with both to moderately train them to a significantly obedient level. I love animals and love working with and spending time with them and treat every animal as I would my own! I am a student athlete in college but have a decently open afternoon schedule and can usually be very flexible with times and have very good time management when working with other peoples respective time. I have large free time on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well as evenings on Wednesday and Fridays and typically full weekend days. I live on campus so I will not be able to house animals overnight unfortunately due to housing rules and regulations. I am able to bring animals onto campus if needed or I am available to stay at animals location overnight if needed primarily on weekends but depending I can adjust to weekdays as well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Helena
Morgan took care of our shy kitty, and beforehand, provided a meet and greet and learned where things were for the job. Morgan was routinely ontime for scheduled check ins, and provided us reassurance through photos and texts that even though he likes hiding under the bed, made sure he was well. We received messege updates on his overall behaviour and eating/potty habits while we were away. By the last day he came out to visit with Morgan a little; We are looking forward to them getting to know eachother better each trip and will definitly reach out again for pet sitting. Thanks Morgan!
Danielle was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two cats. We were initially hesitant to hire someone we didn’t know, but she immediately put us at ease with her friendly demeanor and professionalism. Her communication was excellent, and we loved receiving photos while we were away!

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
