“Kathryn was wonderful! She took excellent care of our pup, giving him lots of love and attention, and keeping us updated with sweet photos and text messages. We already have her booked for our next weekend away.”
“Maggie was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with from start to finish, sent photos every day, and was very attentive to our dog. We felt completely comfortable knowing our home and pet were in such good hands. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Connor was a great sitter for our 3 dogs! Our youngest dog has a lot of energy and he instantly calmed her when he came by to meet us a few weeks in advance. You can tell he truly loves animals and has experience with those that require extra care. When we returned after he stayed with them, they were all happy. You could tell he took great care of them and our house. We couldn’t be happier and look forward to seeing him again in the future!”
“Kathryn was amazing with our 2 year old golden! She took her on multiple hikes and walks and gave her lots of snuggles. Sent photos and updates everyday! She took wonderful care of our home and it was so tidy and clean when we got back! She will definitely be our go to for Kona going forward!”
“Krystle treated my 15 yr+ baby with love and care. She was kind enough to meet us ahead of the scheduled time to see if we agreed it would be a good fit long term. She left my place tidy and took great care of my sweet girl. Next time we will try a longer stay to see how she does. It was great having someone who understands the needs of senior pups.”
“We feel like we lucked out asking Jodi to watch our dogs! She is a true professional along with being a sweet and kind person who clearly loves the opportunity to spend time with dogs and not just be there and feed them and let them outside when needed. We felt very comfortable leaving our 3 beloved dogs and home in her care, which is not something you normally feel when first meeting someone, but she is who she is and is a genuinely good person. Great super fast communication, early despite road closures due to flooding and even sent photos of the happy pups. We look forward to seeing her again! Highly recommend! Thanks for everything, Jodi!!”
“Gage is amazing and really cared for my dog as if he was his own. He has such a passion for dogs and it shows! He’s wonderful, prompt, and very responsible. I appreciate the time he spent caring for my dog. Thank you Gage! <3”
“David was really great with our dog and two cats. He was very attentive, responsive and provided frequent and detailed photo updates which was very appreciated. David brought a very calm energy to looking after our pets, which was very helpful considering our dog can be quite anxious. I would highly recommend booking David for your petsitting needs. For us, it was our first time using Rover, so we were a little cautious to make sure we got the right person. I felt super at ease with David, and comfortable that he was taking good care of our animals. I will definitely look to him in the future!”
“Loved having Jennifer watch over my fur-baby. She was easy to communicate with, very responsive to the main needs I was concerned with, very reliable. From the minute she met Cleo, I felt comfortable having her there and it was one of the first times in years that I felt comfortable being away for a vacation. It felt like I was leaving my home and cat with a good friend. I couldn't recommend her more!”
“We had the best experience with Monica! She will be my first go-to from now on whenever I leave town! She was so kind, left the house immaculate and Farley loved hanging out with her and Bodie at our house. Farley is a sensitive soul and she made sure he didn’t feel lonely which was a worry of mine. She sent photos and was super communicative while we were gone- this was the first time we had someone stay in our house and she really made me feel great about it:-) Thank you Monica!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have owned 3 dogs in my adulthood including two mixed-breed rescues from Milo and a pure-bread yellow lab at 6 weeks. My experience ranges from puppyhood to senior dog care, as well as behavior issues including fear, resource, and leash aggression. I attune to a dog's needs and understand their body language and boundaries. I am responsible, reliable and have a deep love and respect for animals. I am a teacher on summer break, so my schedule is fairly open and flexible aside from occasional travel. I have reliable transportation and can accommodate last minute needs. My services include in-home visits (feedings, medications, playtime, companionship) and walks. I'm able to do a neighborhood walk or drive to a local trailhead for a hike.
“Jody was amazing! From the moment I met Jody, I knew my dogs would be in good hands. She asked great questions, followed up with me and kept me apprised while we were away. We found the house cleaner than we left it. Dogs were well taken care of. Already planning on rebooking her. Get Jody if you can!”
About: I’ve always loved animals, I’ve had two dogs! I’ve dog sit and cat sit for my neighbors ever since I was young. I have experience with young playful animals as well as older and quieter animals. I love playing and spending time with them! I work part-time, so have plenty of time to spend time with your pets. I love taking dogs on walks and I have flexibility so I can take them out to go to the bathroom as frequently as needed. I can stay overnights for as long as needed. I have a fenced yard and I’m happy to spend as much time as I can with your pets. I’m happy to play fetch with dogs and take them on long and short walks.
About: Hi! I'm Evelyn, When I'm not in the lab at MSU studying microbiology, I love getting outside, staying active, and spending time with pets of all kinds. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m here to offer dependable services tailored to your pet’s needs. My energy runs high and I bring the same attention to detail I use in my research to caring for your pets and home. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and work with your schedule. Let’s make sure your pet feels loved and safe while you’re away! I am a recent MSU grad working at Bodhi Farms over the summer as well as researching at MSU. Most of my working hours are spent at Bodhi Farms which is a pet friendly property! When I am not there I continue my days outside, hiking, heading to the river, and enjoying Bozeman. As a college student, I have just one pet, a hamster named reggie who is a lovely palm sized companion. I often care for my neighbor's dog who loves to roam in our large backyard.
About: I’ve always grown up with having a dog in the house, and was asked my family and friends to feed, walk, and play with their pets (mostly dogs and cats)! I’m currently working part time, meaning I have a bunch of free time on my hands to keep your pup company. Even if you need someone just to pop in for a few minutes or take a long walk I’m your gal. I’m always aware of my surroundings and make sure the pup can become comfortable with me when I meet them! I will also ask additional questions in case I need extra clarification
“Adrienne was wonderful with our two dogs! Her calm energy was a great fit for our pups, who need a loving and quiet home. I could tell immediately upon our first meeting that she was a kind and compassionate person, which put us at ease. She sent us cute videos and updates, which were fun to get. Our house was immaculate when we returned home, too. Highly recommend Adrienne!”
“Renee was SO lovely with our crazy girl Murphy! Our pup has so much energy and Renee took it like a champ and seemed genuinely happy to spend time with our girl. She helped out with last minute plans and sent messages/photos throughout the day. Will definitely be requesting her again! Thanks Renee!!”
“Lisa is always great with our dogs and respects our home. She got the dogs out on several walks and took good care of them. She always leaves the house clean and has great communication!”
“Jackson was an amazing sitter for our dog Pesto. He was responsive, available, paid attention to details, and sent us updates on how she was doing. You can tell that he loves dogs and your dog is in good hands with him. I couldn’t recommend Jackson enough!”
About: Lifelong dog owner experienced caring for dogs at every stage of life, from puppies to senior dogs with ongoing health needs. Comfortable with medication routines, special diets, and following detailed care instructions. I provide attentive, reliable care focused on keeping each dog safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as my primary focus right now. I’m currently dedicating my time to building consistent availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I plan my schedule around each booking to ensure reliable, attentive care. This allows me to be flexible, responsive, and fully present for each pet I’m caring for. I care for pets in a way that prioritizes safety, routine, and comfort in their familiar environment. In a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, walk guidelines, and house rules to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I take time to understand each pet’s temperament, energy level, and needs so I can adjust my approach accordingly, whether that’s a calm drop-in visit, an active walk, or extended sitting care. During walks and potty breaks, I stay attentive to surroundings, use secure leashing at all times, and avoid risky interactions with unfamiliar animals. For drop-ins and sitting, I focus on companionship, play, feeding, and maintaining cleanliness, including litter boxes or accident cleanup as needed. My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care that keeps pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away.

Krystle was amazing, a huge help for us with our new puppy. Our dog Orla took to her straight away with. She put us at ease that our dog was being cared for with no issues. Krystle took the time to connect before our meet and work out our needs. We would fully recommend Krystle.
Jody was amazing! She is very responsible and easy to work with. She is prompt in communications and very responsive in following updates and communications. She is personable and kindly. She took very good care of our dog who has separation anxiety history. I appreciated her daily updates and photos keeping us apprised of how it was going. This was our first sit date with her and she was gentle in allowing the dog to set the pace he was comfy with in accepting her given his anxiety issues. When we came home the house was spotless and she even washed the sheets and towels and put them back on the bed/bath. Also our dog was calm and obviously well cared for. You could not ask for a better pet sitter. Marvelous!
We’ve used Samantha several times now for both pet sitting and house sitting, and she has been absolutely wonderful every time. Our elderly dog Trixie requires a little extra care and attention, and Samantha is so patient, attentive, and loving with her. It gives us such peace of mind knowing Trixie is in such good hands while we’re away. What really amazed us is that she even managed to win over our very shy cat, Noah, who normally hides from everyone. The fact that he comes out for her says everything. She’s reliable, communicative, thoughtful, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We always come home to happy pets and a well cared for house. We highly recommend her!
If you want someone to love and care for your beloved pet as much as you do then Kathryn is your person! She was a great communicator from the very start. Kept me informed and updated daily with the best photos of my 13 yr old aussie Finn. He has slowed down, can’t hear forgets he just had dinner 😅 Kathryn was simply the best. The house was tidy and my pup was happy! I will definitely call upon Kathryn for my next trip.
Sarah took care of our house and animals and did a fantastic job! She was super communicative, shared photos and updates regularly and our animals seemed to love her. She also left the house at least as clean as when she arrived. We look forward to her taking care of our animals in the future.
Heather is always amazing both as a pet sitter and house sitter. I have hired her multiple times and will continue to do so for as long as she lets me.:) my pets love her, I can tell they are well taken care of, I get great updates about them and she goes above and beyond in terms of taking care of the house. I could not ask for anyone better to stay with my pets. I recommend her without reservation.
Connor is a total love bug and my pets immediately warmed to him. His ability to take all my pets on, including my Australian bearded dragon, and keep them happy, made me feel confident that I would love for him to return. He stayed at my house and left it immaculate. Highly recommend this gem of a pet sitter to anyone.
Renee recently did a house and dog sit for us and it couldn't have gone better. She is responsible, detail oriented and our dog loves her. Her love of animals is obvious and she easily absorbed all the instructions we left her regarding Zoey's care and our house. She communicated often with photos and updates. She was respectful of our home and we came home to a clean and tidy house. We can recommend Renee without any reservations.
Emily took great care of our pup, Atom, at our home. She took him for long walks at different locations each day, including a beach outing (with advance permission) and shared photos throughout our trip. She followed the instructions that we provided for dog and home care, and asked questions as needed. I felt comfortable that Atom was well cared for and highly recommend Emily. Admittedly, we were cautious to leave Atom with a pet sitter for the first time and had a great first experience with Rover, thanks Emily!
