“Ben does an excellent job in caring for your pet! Our dog was walked daily and had the advantage of spending the day with Ben’s good natured dog. Stress free environment with plenty of attention throughout the day. I highly recommend Ben as a caregiver. Just don’t take our spot! Truly a great experience for our dog and helped us tremendously. Thanks Ben!!!”

About: I am a full-time journalist who loves to get out on the weekends! I’m originally from Alaska and spend every opportunity I can getting outside with my 15-year-old border collie. I work from home and stay with the animals all day. We wake up early for potty breaks first thing in the morning. Dogs are allowed on the furniture for ultimate snuggles! I have a fenced yard with plenty of animal friends to keep your pet occupied and comfortable. The house is also large enough that if your animal needs space, we can cordon off an area for them to have peace and quiet.
“Bryan was awesome. He was available last minute to watch our dog while we were visiting family in Montana. Bryan was very communicative and sent photos of Javi throughout the day. Would 10000% use Bryan and his dog Ron on our next visit to Missoula!”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and grew up caring for multiple cats while being around dogs and other pets through family and friends. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and cared for. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, cleaning up after, administering basic medications, and providing companionship to pets of different ages and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I adapt my care to their individual needs. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which makes it easy for me to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize clear communication and reliability so pet parents can feel confident their pets are receiving consistent care and attention while they’re away. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household rules. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, fresh water, and a clean environment while respecting their boundaries and personalities. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet and home. I provide updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’ve worked in two doggie daycares, a dog/cat hotel, a dog training facility, as an in-home petsitter for thirteen years for over fifteen families, and as a dog nutrition consultant at a specialty dog food retailer. I’ve also volunteered at shelters and with various rescues around the country, doing everything from kennel cleanup to exercising to transporting to home checks for potential adoptive families. I’ve been riding horses since childhood and am comfortable around livestock, chickens, reptiles, birds, and other exotics. I’ve owned, trained, and cared for dogs from 4lbs to 100+ lbs, from submissive to very dominant/reactive. I can modify my interactions with your dog according to what he or she needs. Available services: -I am a runner and can take your pal on a jog/run, a slow stroll, a hike, or on a pack walk with other dogs. I have a 4yo bull terrier named Tater Tot who can join us on walks, or not, depending on your and your dog’s preference. -I have an SUV and can transport and accompany your dog to appointments or hiking, or from my house to yours/vice versa, etc. Transport fees apply. -At my house, your dog can enjoy comfy furniture, a kiddie pool in the warmer months, a gas stove to curl up in front of, and pretty much constant company. Dates are limited; please inquire. For special cases and dates I may also be able to stay at your place. -Kitties, I haven’t forgotten about you! I’m happy to pop in and feed/medicate/brush/cuddle your feline counterpart(s) if you’re away or unable to; drop-in rates apply. -Have a pet other than a dog or cat? Count me in! Inquire for details. -I am also a freelance photographer and can capture your pet’s personality and milestones, which I have found to be invaluable, especially as they age. I am comfortable around and have experience getting up close and personal with every type of pet. Rates available upon request. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pal(s)!
About: Greetings! I've grown up with adopted dogs and have raised one from a puppy to adulthood. My entire home is open to pups (human beds and furniture), but will adhere to any rules you have in your home. My neighborhood has a lot of kids and other dogs around, as well as large common areas for running around. Can administer medication via treats or orally. Have experience working with dogs on- and off-leash, as well as in packs. Will be able to transport pups in a roomy vehicle all around town and beyond. My daily schedule is pretty flexible, and I'm open to hosting pups in my house or dropping in at the comfort of your pup's own home. Tell me all about your furry friend. Hoping I can meet you and your companion soon! I have a very sporadic work schedule, so I'm home frequently during the weekdays and weekends, and typically am only gone from the home for about 5 hours if I have to be somewhere. I'm able to accommodate frequent walk and bathroom break schedules, have experience taking multiple dogs in my car to hiking trails and other adventure areas. When I'm available to work, I'll frequently be with your pet throughout the day and overnight. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet neighborhood with open grassy areas and safe sidewalks. Will frequently run into kids of all ages in the area, and they're very responsive to dogs of all temperaments. If in your home I'd like to know anything and everything to keep your pet safe and comfortable, if you have cameras indoors or outdoors, as well as anything else about your pet's routine.
About: I’m comfortable will pets of all sizes and breeds. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life (including horses and goats) and enjoy working with them. I work from home and attend classes virtually, so I can provide care at any time and ensure your loved one gets potty breaks, walks, and fed according to their needs and established routines. I am happy to provide other home care including watering plants, bringing in mail, setting out trash, and feeding and caring for livestock or hobby herds.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Missoula
Briana was amazing! She took great care of my graying older dog, who’s a bit set in her ways around other dogs, but not only that! On a hot summer day when temps in my car would be a bad choice for my pooch, she accepted my last-minute ask for help to keep my girl coolee off for several hours while I did my stuff around town. Thanks, Briana!
Megan and her dog Cheddar are the best! We needed 4 days of daycare for our 7 month old lab, Gus. Megan is calm and reassuring, she’s got a wonderful back yard and understands puppy energy. Gus loved playing with Cheddar and came home happily exhausted every day.
Ash was wonderful! She watched my 2 VERY old pups. They got anxious when I left them, but by the time I returned, they were calm and comfortable. I know it wasn't the easiest pet sitting, but we are incredibly grateful to her!! She also had great communication coordinating everything ahead of time. Thanks Ash!!
Kayla was extremely great with Koda. She took time to make sure he was fed and took him outside multiple times despite the cold. She responded promptly and made sure to do as I asked. I would 100% have Kayla sit Koda again and recommend her to other people looking for pet sitters!
Maria was great! We were camping and needed a spot for Bella to stay while we attended a concert. Maria was more than welcoming to take Bella for a few hours in the evening! I’m always nervous with Bella and new people/places because she’s a bit more on the timid side. Maria sent me pictures and updates as Bella settled in, alleviating all my worries! She catered to Bella’s needs as a more timid pup and I’m very happy with the care she received ! Will definitely book again if in town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Missoula on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Missoula commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 78 sitters in Missoula, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
