“10/10! Shannon was an incredible caretaker for my dog while I was out of town. She was extremely responsive, sent so many picture updates and eased my mind regarding any concerns I had leaving my pup. I’m pretty sure my dog is currently missing their house and is sad that I came back lol. I will absolutely be using Shannon again for any sitting needs I have in the future!”
“Morgan was great with Bella! She’s a very shy dog but seemed to settle in nicely with Morgan and her dogs. She always sent me picture or video updates during the day which was much appreciated. Will definitely rebook in the future! 😊”
“Oakley enjoyed his time staying with Zoei and her family. Her place is convenient to downtown Kalispell and provided a good mix of indoor/outdoor time to keep Oakley busy. Will definitely use again on future trips to MT.”
“Devonna was awesome! She made Petey feel like he was at home and made us feel super-comfortable with having him pet-sit for the first time. She was extremely flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. We will definitely book again!”
“We’ve left our dog with Olivia several times and she always takes good care of her. She has a lot of fun playing with her kids and dogs and running around the large fenced in yard. We also love the photos and updates that Olivia sends us when we are away.”
“Sherri is the best dog mom ever!! Totally lives your dog and I could not have been more comfortable leaving my pup with her. If you need pup sitting in Bigfork then consider this your only option! Thanks Sherri!”
“Sunnee took wonderful care of Georgie overnight! We felt completely comfortable leaving her and knew she was in good hands. We would definitely trust Sunnee to watch her again!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! My dog stayed at her home, was loved like family, and I came back to the happiest pup. As a first-time sitter user, it was completely stress-free and put my mind at ease.”
About: I’m kinda a mother hen when it comes to my fur babies. You can be worry free when you trust me to care for your babies! I have 1 acre fenced yard to run and play safely, lots of toys, sprinklers to play in during the hot summer months. I am perfectly capable of administering medications as needed. I also live right up the street from my Vet in case of emergency. I’m newly retired and need to do something from home . I love all animals and have the perfect environment to watch and entertain your pups I have a 1 acre fenced yard. I have one dog and one cat that thinks she’s a dog that are very friendly. I also want to keep it to a 3 to 4 small to medium sized dog minimum so that they get the care that they need.
“Brycen is a very sweet girl and was great for our pup Ali! He was a happy boy and very clearly, well cared for. She accommodated his medical needs and took him for fun adventures. It was really nice being able to leave him for the weekend knowing he was loved and in good hands!”
“Andy was wonderful with our cat, Macs. He sent pictures every day and took the time to make sure Macs was comfortable. We will definitely ask Andy to care for Macs again in the future, if we have the need.”
“My first experience w/ Shauna (and family) was an extremely kind and caring person and care-giver for my pup. Great spot with a large clean fenced in yard. She was very thoughtful on her approach to introducing my dog with her family, dogs and space. She was very flexible with my travel and was a wonderful communicator during my dog's stay with her. I could not be happier with the care she provide and would not hesitate at all to use her care again!!”
“Oh my goodness! Neville and Ned had the best time with Vicki and Clint. They were treated so well and loved. Our fur babies love to be with their humans and you could tell they were very happy because when we picked them up they greeted us but then went back for more cuddles with V and C🥰🥰🥰🥰”
“Our trip to Glacier was possible because of Whitney’s great care and perfect location. We knew our dog was safe and happy while we toured the park. Thank you Whitney!”
“Arrow had a wonderful time with Sharmaine and Monique! They were great and very considerate. Lots of playtime and walks and all sorts of attention. Would 💯 recommend!”
“Alyssa was great! I felt super comfortable leaving my dog with her, she was super communicative and sent pics! Highly recommend, hope to have her watch my pup again!”
“Daniel was wonderful! Super communicative and took great care of my pup while I was out of town. He sent pictures every day of their outings and I could tell my dog was having a blast. I definitely plan to use Daniel again!”
About: I am a full time Physical Therapist living in Whitefish with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I absolutely love animals. I am active and love the outdoors, so I will be more than happy to run or walk your dog as needed. I've been caring for animals since I was in high school and have had experience with all shapes, sizes, and ages. That being said, I have no problem giving medications, training, etc. I am quick to respond to calls/texts and give updates regularly while owners are away or at work and so forth. My goal is to go through your animals’ daily routine as closely as possible. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be in contact with you as well as your pets soon! I’m currently working full time as a Physical Therapist and have some flexibility in my schedule to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pup. I work 8-10 hour days and if the location is right, can drop by over lunch for a potty break if needed. I will care for your pet at your home as close as possible to their regular schedule. If a walk morning and night is needed, they’ll get it. If snuggling on the couch is more important, we’ll do it!

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 Lakeside 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 Lakeside.
<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 Lakeside 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.
