About: Hi! I'm a masters student studying animal-assisted therapy. I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, and have privately provided training, in-home care, rehabilitation/medical care and exercise for the last 10+ years. I use the best, most ethically minded and researched methods out there and am comfortable with four legged friends of any ages. All money made through this gig goes towards my education and research into animal therapy (for humans). Happy to be in trainer mode or just hang with your buddies! I'm currently working part time remotely and can work with your schedule. Same day booking is great! Repeat clients are also awesome. Just ask and we can work something out! Please feel free to let me know your house rules and expectations, I'm just here to work with you and make your life easier :)

About: I've had my own various pets for numerous years. Also helped sit for friends and family, and using trusted house sitters app (see reviews in pictures). I previously lived with a roommate and we had two dogs and three cats. Therefore I am familiar with multiple pets needs, and structuring routines accordingly. I love being able to meet new animals, each one has their own unique energy and personality! I work remotely so I'm able to adjust my schedule easily and work from your home while hanging out with pets. I also love spending time outside and exercising, and enjoy walking with a furry companion. I am happy to follow whatever rules and routines you have in place to help your pet feel the most comfortable while you are away!

About: I have been surrounded by and have taken care of dogs since getting my family’s two dogs when I was around 11 or 12 years old. Even since moving out, my family has relied on me to take care of them on vacations, extended work trips, etc. I now have a kitty of my own, and love any opportunity to meet new animals. I am currently traveling the country, and looking to explore new places! I’ve found that pet-sitting is an excellent way to do so, with the side bonus of getting to meet new furry friends along the way! I am very intentional about adapting to each pet’s individual needs - whether they’re a fast friend or needs some space to figure me out first, my top priority is establishing trust with your fur baby. From there, I can ensure that I give them the proper love and care they deserve.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I could remember! I’ve lived on a farm and find pleasure in tending to animal needs! Pets are therapeutic and are make great buddies for outdoor activities! I’m currently working full-time and have availability in the late afternoon (after 3PM) to tend to your pets desires! I typically work mornings 7AM-3PM. I enjoy working with people and animals, and find them to truly make a difference in our outlooks in life! I unfortunately currently am unable to board animals or do day care at my home. Fortunately, I do spend a lot of time outdoors, and enjoy having a buddy along the ride! So if needed, I’d love to take your animal for a ride and to go sight/adventure seeking!

About: Growing up we had 3 large dogs. Two of which were raised from puppies. I loved them with all my heart. Nate had many medical issues and we would have to make sure he had his medicine so I know how important and hard that can be. Sam was a very large breed and as he got older his hips weren’t as sturdy. We would walk him while supporting his back legs as the grew weaker. I understand aging dogs and how to watch out for their health. I am also a photographer for dog sled racing. I have helped many racers herd their dogs into formation and back to their kennels. I love working dogs and larger breeds. I enjoy tanking photos of dogs while they work or doing what they love. I am a freelance photographer, videographer, and marketer so I make my own schedule. I am available at almost anytime throughout the week. Most of my meetings are held on zoom so I seldom need to be somewhere other than a place with WiFi. I enjoy taking walks and playing fetch. I do not believe in off leash exercise as I don’t trust other dogs and dog owners. I enjoy playing tug and enriching experiences making dogs use their sense of smell and practice their manners and training.

About: Hey there! My name is Ben. Ever since I was little, there has always been an animal at home to greet me at the door. My family absolutely loved Vizslas, so I definitely know how to handle high-energy dogs. Our first dog lived to be 18 years old, so I have experience caring for senior dogs (and they will always hold a special place in my heart). I've taken care of dogs personally since they were puppies, so I have experience with all different ages. While I am used to trying to match my rambunctious pups' energy on walks, I am also a motivator of couch potatoes! I promise to be just as stubborn as your own little friend. That said, if you'd like me to try to get them extra exercise, I'd be willing to try jogging with them - just let me know! Overall, I hope to be a loving, observant, and friendly companion to your animals. I have about 2 years experience living with cats as well. I am respectful of their boundaries while always willing to give love if they’re open to receiving it. Can't wait to meet them (and hopefully you)! On the days I am not working, I have just about unlimited time! If it fits in my schedule, I’d be happy to help out. I will respect your pets and whatever environment you allow me access to with the same level of care and concern as if it were my own.

About: I’ve been studying animal behavior for two years, and I’m passionate about loving and caring for pets as if they were my own. I have a service dog named Buddy, who is incredibly affectionate and enjoys making friends with animals. I’m committed to teaching well-being behaviors in my home to ensure the safety and comfort of my pets. Additionally, I volunteer at shelters to assist in finding and supporting suitable placements for enrichment activities. I hold certifications in pet first aid and dog training, which further enhance my expertise in caring for animals. I am available to schedule clients throughout the week and can work with flexible timing to fit appointments into my day. Since I work part-time, I have availability seven days a week, which allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules. To ensure smooth planning and avoid any last-minute changes, I kindly request a confirmation of all appointments by 2:00 PM the day prior. I will be alone at home so visits will be solo. I’m using enrichment tools and techniques to keep your pet happy and healthy. I have a fenced yard with everything your pet needs. There are plenty of spots for them to relax and play. I’ll be watching over your pets, and I use Kongs, treats, and toys to ensure their safety and well-being. I also do health checks and training to keep them in top shape.

Franklin To The Fort, Missoula, MT, 59801

About: Since I was 10 I’ve taken care of the pets in my family. Bunnies, dogs, cats, fish, gerbils and mice. I’ve given baths, taken dogs on runs, cuddled with kittens, played with bunnies. I’ve had to give medication to animals before. I’m quite active (trail runner) and really open to anything. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I work remote from home as a video editor and I get to decide my own schedule and hours everyday. That means I get to prioritize your pet or home first! I’ve grown up with animals all my life - so I suppose at this point it is just second nature to be around them. I make sure not to leave often, especially in the first 48 hours, so that I can help keep your pets relax as you leave. I try to spend a lot of intentional time with them up front so they get to know me and trust me. I once had to walk a dog 5 times between 10pm and 2am because it was nervous, but by the next day we were best friends. It just takes time and patience.

About: Hi! My name is Courtney, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a mom who was always bringing home abandoned and rescued animals, so our house was never short on furry (or feathered!) family members. I was also raised on a farm where we cared for two horses, a donkey named Abigail, goats, chickens, rabbits, six outdoor cats, two indoor cats, and two dogs. Growing up in that environment taught me the responsibility, patience, and dedication that quality animal care requires. It also showed me just how rewarding the bond between people and animals can be. Today, I have a 13-year-old Golden Retriever named Mia, who is truly my whole world. Caring for her through every stage of her life has deepened my understanding of what pets mean to their families. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your beloved companion, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I recently graduated with my master's degree from the University of Montana and currently have a very flexible schedule while I search for my next career opportunity. That means I can provide dependable, attentive care and work around your pet's routine, whether they need walks, playtime, companionship, or lots of affection. I believe animals are some of our greatest supporters, and there's nothing more special than the unconditional love they share with us. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving their owners complete peace of mind. I'll care for your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I recently graduated with my master's degree from the University of Montana and am currently searching for the next step in my career. Because of that, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether your dog enjoys mountain hikes, neighborhood walks, trips to the dog park, or long games of fetch, I'm happy to tailor our time together to match their energy level and personality. For pets who prefer a slower pace, I'm just as happy spending quality time providing companionship, enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have open availability, your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I take the time to follow your instructions carefully so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I live at the Corso Apartments in central Missoula, which features a large, well-maintained dog park right on the property. We're also located directly next to the Milwaukee Trail, making it easy to provide safe, enjoyable neighborhood walks or longer adventures for dogs who love to explore. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my apartment or yours, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of love. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in caring hands.

About: Hi. My name is Kirstan and I am excited that you took the time to look at my profile. I have always loved animals and taking them for walks and coming home to them after a work day. They seem to help me relieve stress and clam me right down. Even though I don't have one for myself due to being in a rental. Experience includes house sitting, dog walking, and extended stays for 3 weeks to over one month. I have watched up to 6 dogs at one time. I am currently working full time Monday through Friday 8-5. I am looking for after work to walk dogs and weekends. I do not work at home. I am flexible nights and weekends. Also can do stay overs. My place doesn't allow animals at this time so I cant offer boarding at my house. I live right now in a duplex which is a rental so iam not able to host any pets at my house due to landlord rules.

About: I am a reliable dog and cat sitter, and have several friends and coworkers who can attest to this. Pet sitting brings me so much joy! Unfortunately I’m not in a place to have pets of my own, so I thought this would be a great way to spend time with animals and make some extra cash! My schedule is currently fairly flexible, as I am hybrid remote and on summer hours! I can do pretty much any day/time of the week, though this may change seasonally. I make sure to spread my time and love evenly between pets, respecting their space but giving them lots of scratches and playing with them when they want or need. I am always down to go for walks, play fetch, or just hang around the house together!

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.

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 .

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.

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.
