“Finding a dog sitter who only watches small breeds can be tricky, so we’re incredibly grateful to have found Katie! She was communicative, caring, and always reassured us that our little guy was doing well. We’ll definitely be calling her our go-to sitter for future trips!”
“Gary took such wonderful care of Josie while we were away. The moment we met him and his canine partner Kate, we knew we had nothing to worry about, and seeing how content Josie was when we picked her up confirmed it. Josie had such a blast during her two-week stay that we were worried she wouldn’t want to come home. Gary’s home and property are perfect for an active dog, and we truly appreciated the field trips, videos, photos, and regular updates.We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Gary (and Kate.) They are both are absolute gems, and we would highly recommend his sitting services to anyone.”
“Charles was great. Can’t recommend highly enough. I was in a bind and had nowhere for my dog to stay and a very urgent upcoming out of state trip. I had no worries while I was gone and came back to a very happy dog and even some gifts that were sent home with her. I will definitely be using Charles any time my dog needs somewhere to stay.”
“Eliza was an absolutely amazing sitter! Our dog was so happy I don’t think he wanted to leave! She is great at sending updates and pictures, and very professional with her communication. Can’t recommend anyone better in Bozeman!”
About: Growing up with animals has taught me the importance of their care and well being. They are all so unique, why we love them so! I work for myself in Bozeman, therefore I have a very flexible schedule. I am available seven days a week, all times of the day! I have a very large yard right on the trails. We are close to streams for swimming and Peet’s hill for socializing, we stay entertained!
“Katherine and Jacob were great! Kat made sure to send me daily pictures, videos, and updates on how my pup was doing. Their dogs are so sweet and friendly and got along great with mine. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using them again!”
“Sara was wonderful! She gave us such peace of mind with regular photos and updates. Plus, she took our pup on some great adventures. If you are looking for a safe environment, full of fun and exciting enrichment activities, Sara is the sitter for you!”
“Josephine was great! From drop off to pick up she allowed me to go out of town knowing my pup was in good hands! Will definitely book again and highly recommend you do the same!”
“Tara was so accommodating when I reached out at the last minute to watch my dog. He loved being there-with the spacious fenced in backyard and lots of family time, it was a perfect situation for him. Tara sent lots of videos and photos during his stay so I knew he was having a great time. Would absolutely recommend Tara to someone looking for an alternative to a kennel.”
“Ashley was a fantastic communicator and sent pupdates. I was very comfortable leaving Nova with her. They did so many fun activities. I highly recommend Ashley and would definitely go with her again.”
“Traci and family took very good care of my boys 🐶🐶. She sent pictures of our 2 dogs every day, including after I left and they settled in. They seemed pretty chill when I picked them up, so I knew they had been doing ok. I would definitely recommend Traci to anyone looking for a small dog pet sitter!”
“Holly was great with my aussie, Draper! 😊 She clearly loves dogs. She practiced great safety in feeding separate, having separate areas if needed, having AC and access to water throughout the home so her dog and my dog could both enjoy their time together! Her puppy is sweet and had great manners with my dog. I was super confident my pup would be well taken care of while I was out. Would book again!”
“Danielle was wonderful with Melke! She kept me up to date and sent lots of pictures. Melke was so happy when I got home & I could tell she had the best time & was well taken care of! I definitely recommend Danielle & I for sure use her in the future!”
“Emma was an amazing sitter for my pup, Crouton! I had to go out of town last minute for a few days and Emma was thankfully available. Crouton got along really well with her pup, Nova. I got ample updates and pictures. Crouton seemed so happy during her stay, I would definitely rebook with Emma again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kerns
This is one of those moments where I don't want to tell everyone how amazing Codi is, because I selfishly want to ensure my pup can enjoy time with her whenever we need. Codi was phenomenal with my pup; thoughtful, caring and ensured he had a wonderful time while I was away. Could not recommend more.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kerns 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 Kerns.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kerns 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.
