“Trena was amazing she knew that I was in desperate need of a dogsitter due to medical issues. Previous person (not through rover) bailed last minute. I was nervous, scared. I wasnt sure how I could manage Hercules he hates cars gets car sick. I was dreading it. But Trena came and saved me. She took care of my pups and wasn't afraid. Trena you're a godsend!!! Thank you. I hope you can also say my pups although huge and mean looking are nice. I hope we can work together again.”

“Tressa is an extraordinary and superstar house/dog sitter! I'm so glad that we found someone as patient, sweet and professional to help out with our dog Chicky while we were out of town. Our pup has some reactivity issues with new people, especially in our home, and Tressa was incredibly understanding and gentle while taking the time to come over and get to know Chicky before our trip. Tressa had no problem understanding the special needs of Chicky, and after a day of us being gone, they had built trust together and were quickly becoming best buds, which was surprising to us as Chicky usually takes longer to warm up to a new person. This is testament to Tressa's care and ability to really understand the nuances of our dog, and Chicky trusted her right away (wow, still amazing to us!). Tressa is also a wonderful person and sent us tons of updates while we were gone, which warmed our hearts knowing that Chicky had made a new friend for life. Our house was immaculate when we returned. I truly believe Tressa is the best house/dog sitter in the Bozeman/Belgrade area - highly recommend!”

“Britney was wonderful! Very responsive and communicated (with the best photos!) throughout the time she house-sat for us. She was professional, tidy and the pups enjoyed the time with her. We're thrilled with Britney and can't wait to have her sit for us again soon!”

“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful. Both my pets dog and cat were right at home with her and her fury babies. She took away any stress I had in leaving my pets for a vacation. I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone needing fabulous care for their pets.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life especially caring for my own pets. I have fostered many young puppies and am experienced in potty training, basic commands, and medical care. I worked as an intern in an animal clinic where I gained skills in critical thinking, proper handling of animals, and awareness of standards for the animal health care industry. I am currently home for the summer after completing my first year at Montana State University studying Animal Science! I am free on weekends and weekdays for whatever your pet may need! I am available to take care of your pet in the comfort of your home. I can ensure that your pets will always be safe with me! I've fostered four puppies at once and always made sure that they were being watched to ensure nothing bad happened. I crate trained my own dog when he was a puppy so I am not unfamiliar with the process! I am always happy to teach your pup a few new tricks as well!
“Matthew was great with all of our animals! We have two seniors which both required special care and medication. Matthew did such a fine job caring for them and kept us updated on everyone's condition. He was reliable and we will definitely be hiring him again!!”

“Sam was fantastic! She responded promptly, communicated clearly, provided updates, asked questions proactively, and most importantly took excellent care of our dog and chickens. She also left the house clean. We will be happy to have her back again!”
About: I grew up on a farm in Upstate New York, taking care of my dogs, chickens, cats, and horses. I've loved animals for a long time, and feel that they provide a much needed therapeutic and calming part of my life. I'm in London doing my Masters at UCL, and would love to be able to spend some time with dogs! As far as house sitting, besides caring for my own animals my whole life, I have done dog sitting for 4 days for a good friend in Boston (where I went to Brandeis University). The dogs I took care of there were older, one had significant arthritis that made it difficult to move. I took them outside to go to the bathroom frequently, and even went swimming with them once! Moreover I have worked as a groom and stable hand at a horse show barn, caring for horses. I really love spending time with animals, especially dogs, because they are so loving and the experience is so rewarding! Since dogs help me to feel good, it's the least I can do to make them feel good and give back. When I was going to school in Boston I also worked as a dog walker for Wag! now and then, and found that I really enjoyed walking dogs as well. I would be a great house sitter, and walker partly because I enjoy spending time with dogs, but also because I know how important it is that animals are cared for and loved. I'm currently working remote and part time, so I have a very flexible schedule to fit in plenty of pet care time and fun! I am able to live and work in different locations for any amount of time. N/A - I can't currently offer pet care at my home, but I am happy to come to you and spend time with your pets wherever their home is.
“Lilli kept our dog for a week at our house. She did an amazing job. Gave our doggo lots of exercise and companionship. We came back to a happy dog and a clean house. I have no hesitations in recommending her!”

“Cherri was fantastic with my dogs! She sent me photo updates and I could tell they were well taken care of. I would definitely book her again and would recommend her to anyone. She also left the house very clean.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs growing up my entire life! I love to take care and hangout with them! I also love to go on walks with dogs! I’m currently a student at Montana state university! My week schedule is decently open so I have a lot of flexibility. Some weekends I out of town but I am able to stay in Bozeman if need be! I care for animals like they are my own! I care about their safety and well being. I also make sure they get what they need activity wise.
About: I’m an auntie to any and all dogs, cats, and unusual pets. In addition to training several family Goldens, I have worked extensively as a musher and handler, training Alaskan Husky sled dogs to run Iditarod. I have experience caring for very active dogs, elderly retirees, and young puppies using positive reinforcement and love. I have a particular soft spot for older dogs in their golden years. My mushing background has given me confidence in canine first aid, pet massage, administering medication and vaccines. I also am a very active trail runner and love to tire out athletic pups! I’m an ultra marathoner, so I can go the distance your dog needs as part of my weekly training runs. I don't have my own pet, so it’s a joy to me to have the opportunity to shower yours with love! I’m a freelance photographer, so I spend much of my time working from home or I can bring my laptop anywhere! I have a flexible schedule so I’m happy to adjust and offer as much last-minute plan accommodation as possible if your plans are not fully set. I live alone on a property with a huge backyard next to a big park and many trails for running and playing! We are located just south of town, in a quiet, rural area. If your dog enjoys company, I have some very sweet and playful neighbor dogs they can meet, but if your pet is more of a loner, they will not be harassed!

About: Growing up with 8 dogs, I am well rounded in puppy care among all breeds! I’ve also been a recommended sitter to all connections by family and friends. Totaling up to 10 families that I would consistently dog sit for! I’m currently in school, and working part time. But with my evenings wide open I’d love to have some furry friends to check on or take care of! I’m also an early riser, which I know many dogs are too! This is the best time to take them for walks or play ball! I like to ensure that the pets I watch are getting the priorities they need. Whether this be walks, play time, or snuggles! I love to involve my own dogs with anything I do, putting a large focus on them. Which is exactly what I would do with others dogs as well.
About: I have always had a love for animals especially dogs. i currently have 2 dogs at home. i’ve always been someone to watch my neighbors and family’s pets. i’m able to feed, watch, play, and bathe your pets! i’ve raised both of my dogs from puppies and love all ages! i’m currently employed and work 4 10 hour shifts a week. im willing to stay at your house and also drop in before my shift, during my lunch break, and after work.

FAQs for House Sitting - Menard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 391 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Menard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Menard walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Menard maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Menard choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
