“Outstanding care for our old man cat. Maddisyn is responsible, kind and caring. She showed real skill and intuition for caring for our elderly cat. Her communication is excellent. She provides outstanding service. I highly recommend Maddisyn! She even left us a personalized hand made mini portrait of our handsome retired secret agent😎”

“Lea was absolutely wonderful! Her communication and professionalism from the first message through the last drop-in visit exceeded my expectations. She took amazing care of my pup Bruce and I can’t wait to hire her again!”

“Emma is fantastic! She stayed with my 6 month old dog for several hours on 2 consecutive days while I worked long shifts. I was certain Luna was well taken care of while I was gone. Emma is punctual, responsive & thoughtful! I will definitely use her again in the future for house/pet sitting!”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have had cats as well, so I'm comfortable with both. Most recently I've been the go-to sitter for my neighbor's cat during her extended trips away — sometimes up to a month at a time. Animals tend to be at ease around me, and I bring the same calm, unhurried attention to pet care that I do to everything else. Your pet will be well looked after and genuinely enjoyed, not just managed. I’m reliable, quiet, respectful of your home, and happy to follow detailed instructions for your pet’s care. I work from home on a flexible, part-time basis, which means I'm around most of the day and can give pets consistent attention and company. I'm available for drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week with good advance notice. I'm attentive, calm, and take pet care seriously. For in-home sitting I treat your space with care and keep everything exactly as you'd want it. I'm comfortable with a range of pets and temperaments, and I'll communicate with you regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I come from a 4-dog family and love spending time with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to do drops ins and overnight stays. I’m comfortable with basic medicine administration and special diets. Happy to take pups on walks, practice basic commands, and spend good quality time with your animals! I work 10:30-3:30 most days over the summer, so a combination of daily drop ins, walks, and some overnight work is doable. I’m flexible and communicative! If you schedule far enough in advance, I may be able to adjust my work schedule. In the fall, I’ll be back in graduate school, so my schedule will be a little different. We can talk! I’m happy to stay overnight in your place to keep your pets company. Drop in visits are also fine. I prefer visits under a week, but am flexible, and if you need a longer stay, we can chat.
About: I have had dogs in my home for my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages! I recently had two large dogs in my home (2 labradors) that were family pets. I was responsible for feeding, walking, and looking after these dogs throughout my childhood and young adult life. In addition to taking care of my own dogs, I have pet sat for multiple friends and family (including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and rabbits!) I also volunteered for my local humane society for 4 years, walking dogs and socializing cats to prepare them for adoption. For this, I went through 2 years of safety training and dog walking certification. Overall, I am very comfortable around animals and feel very passionately about their care and well-being. I am very flexible and am excited to spend time with some furry friends! I am currently working from home and have lots of flexibility throughout the day between meetings to go for walks, get some play time, and give attention when needed. I’m available for overnight stays at a client’s home or walks anytime! I cannot accommodate pets in my own home, but can be very flexible when it comes to any of your pets needs while taking care of them in a clients home. I have experience with crate-trained dogs, limiting animals to particular areas of the home, and walking dogs outdoors both off leash at a dog park and on leash
About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I have extensive knowledge of animal health care and am prepared to administer medication and treat minor wounds. I have also worked as a professional dog hiker. In this role I walked up to 8 dogs of various sizes in the mountains near Victoria, BC, Canada. Through this role, I gained extensive experience as an obedience trainer. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes, as well as cats, birds and reptiles. I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was the owner of an adorable labradoodle named Max, who passed away in 2020. Since then, I have been a reliable dog and cat sitter for many friends, family and neighbors. I am currently a graduate student in the Environmental Philosophy program at the University of Montana. I only have 13 hours of class a week, which gives me plenty of free time to stay at home with your animals and go on many walks. I do not have class Friday-Sunday and am available for full-time care on these days as well as all evenings. I am also able to leave campus in between classes for walks. As I am not permitted to have animals at my current home, I am extremely eager to house-sit or drop in to your home to care for your pets. As a former veterinary receptionist, I can ensure a safe environment for you pets and am prepared to care for them in the case of a medical emergency. As a former professional dog walker, I am also eager to drive to your home to pick up your dog for a big mountain hike or a simple walk around the neighborhood.
About: Raised in the deep mountains of Montana, I have been surrounded by animals since infancy and grew up with a deep rooted sense of empathy and love for all creatures. In addition to the classic dogs, my sister and I had a childhood filled with bunnies, ducklings, fish, turtles, hedgehogs, birds, horses, mules, and plenty of wildlife to keep things exciting! I have been taking care of pets for nearly my entire life, and am extensively experienced in feeding, walking, bathing, and administering medicine for most household pets. Mainly dogs, smaller rodents, rabbits, and birds. I spent the last several years administering medicine to my late dog, Tango, upwards of three times daily. So I am very recently experienced in taking care of animals with a requirement for lot's of special attention and caregiving. I have also raised 3 puppies with my family in the last 5 years so I’m freshly prepped for little ones. I am the perfect match for you and your pet. ***CAN NOT HOUSE SIT PROPERTY WITH CATS - VERY ALLERGIC**** Dogs give us the gift of joy every day, and I would be so excited to bring a little extra joy to your pets life! Be it by stopping by for a half hour to say hello and play, or making them feel safe and secure while their owner is away. Currently, I am working from home and have wide availability. I am willing to commute a certain distance for pet care, and would require access to cell service and WiFi in the case of a long-term stay. I live in the center of Missoula and have fast and easy access to many dog parks and walking trails in the area. I have a large fenced in yard to run and play in. I typically avoid more popular dog parks, but am happy to take your furry friend to any of their favorite spots upon request. I have a large vehicle to transport pets to longer hiking destinations or parks.
About: College student wanting to care for your pets! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 9 years old and love them all. I’ll cater to your needs. I am a college student and have some availability to dog walk or visit between classes during the week. I can work with you on time and duration as it fits into my schedule! For house pet-sitting I’m flexible to when I am free so reach out and ask about my availability! I respect the home I care for the dogs in and respect the rules set for their pets. I’m attentive to the dogs needs during my stay and make them top priority.

I fostered dogs for a time and in 2024 adopted a border collie mix named Patty! I have loved many kitties in my day as well! I also have limited experience with horses & mules but am very comfortable around them. I promise to provide your furry friend with the best love and care that I am capable of.

I approach my dog watching with patience and love. I have a semi active border collie mix. We go on minimum one hour walks everyday with playtime in the yard. He’s gotten along with every dog he’s met but I require a proper introduction when introducing him to new pups.
“Tori has been amazing! She takes such good care of my puppy and always tells me the fun things that my puppy is doing. Her descriptions when she drops by are detailed and make me feel like she is taking the time to learn about my puppy. She even refilled his water bowl before she left! Genuinely cares and is so kind! 100% would recommended!”

About: Ive been around animals my whole life and while I don't have a furry friend of my own, I some how became the go to sitter for a lot of my friends and co workers. It is my favorite way to earn extra money and snuggle with some furry friends. I do work 8-5ish during Monday through Friday, but usually able to run home on breaks for locations near the heart of Missoula . My weekends are pretty open and I can spend most of the day hanging out with pets while I do some some homework. I can provide for both low and high energy dogs. With the high energy dogs we will run, hike, or walk in any neighborhood or nearby trail. I am very clean and quiet as a guest in your home.
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!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Missoula
Kaycee is an absolute gem. She took great care of Brutus and it was such a pleasure to have her looking after my boy. She spoiled my best bud with some walks, snuggles, and lots of cheese snackies. I had not a single worry while he was in her care. Having that peace of mind is priceless

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Liv has been absolutely wonderful with my dogs, Finn and Carter. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about them. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re being checked on by someone so attentive and kind. She always sends thoughtful updates and photos, and I can tell my boys are comfortable and happy with her. Finn and Carter both took to her right away, which says a lot. I really appreciate how dependable and caring she’s been, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.

April is fantastic. She has been helping me take care of my new puppy. She is always on time, reliable, sends photos, and answers communications promptly. I was worried about the puppy this morning and she did a last minute drop in to check on her and make sure she wasn't sick.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Missoula stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Missoula 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Missoula with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
