“Annie was such an amazing sitter! Our dog Winston is an anxious pup who likes consistency and can sometimes be thrown for a loop with sitters. Annie was so calm, kind and good with Winston! He immediately took to her. Annie provided updates throughout the stay. We came home to a clean house and a relaxed dog!”
“Quinn was the absolute best with my girl. I’m forever thankful and thrilled to see Ophelia open up and be able to settle with someone so kind and patient. Quinn is the best!”
“I have lost count how many times I have had Zoe take care of my dogs. Every time has been the best. My dogs are not only well taken care of they are truly cared for. It is such a relief to be able to leave town and know she is taking care of them.”
“Louise watched my dog a while back when Kora had several injuries that required activity restrictions, and Louise did an awesome job sticking to them, sending me updates, and just hanging out and spending time with Kora.”
“Amber was amazing for our 2 week trip abroad! She went out of her way to come by twice beforehand to meet the pets and check out the house, which really helped ease our nerves about leaving them. Came home to happy animals and a spotless house. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Logan was outstanding! Our dog got to go on lots of adventures and was very active. Her communication was top notch! She was very respectful to our home as well. We hope to book her for all of our future trips!”
“April was fantastic! Our cat was so happy to have her stay at our house. Her communication was great and I loved the photo updates. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. It was clear she spent som real time with our kitty and we are so grateful!”
“My very timid dog had an enjoyable evening with her first time with Maisie. Maisie has a calm and pleasant way that made my dog comfortable in her presence. I hope Maisie will be available to spend more time with my dog in the future.”
“New to town and had an out of town wedding to attend. Georgina stayed with my dog Angus for the weekend and cared for him. She was punctual, took detailed notes on my dog’s care during the meet and greet and left the place spotless. It can be such a stressful thing finding someone who will look after a beloved pet while away. Georgina made the experience stress free.”
“Corbin was awesome! Incredibly communicative and on top of things. He was so good about asking questions and checking in, and making sure Maisie was well taken care of. Maisie had a great time with him.”
“Linda was great! Typically when I return from being away, Jax has severe separation anxiety but his demeanor was completely different when I returned. He was happy to see me but I could tell he was well loved while I was gone. That is the most important aspect I look for when using a care giver. My bonus was the house was spotless. I will be using Linda as often as I can get her.”
About: My dad was a veterinarian, so I grew up with animals and am well acquainted. I know how to best take care of your pet and am prepared to handle any situation. I’m trying to earn money for college in the fall, so I’m free almost anytime and am pretty flexible. I’m usually free in the mornings My home is spacious, clean, and has a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs happy to play with your pet. I give my pets the best care possible!
“Haley was so lovely to have watch Rigby! He seemed to really enjoy her and was happy and himself when I got home. I appreciated all of the photo updates! Will definitely book again.”
“Above and beyond, is nothing compared to the care my pet received. I got pictures and updates daily. Traveling is an extremely stressful thing for me. Putting trust in someone to watch over my loved one isn't easy. I had a few complications along the way, and Brianna help keep those stresses to a minimum. As long as she's still in the biz, she will be watching my little lady every time. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, Brianna.”
“Rosie did a great job with my reactive/anxious pup. I loved that she sent photos while I was away, and I felt confident leaving Winnie in her care. Would recommend!”
“Bryan was fantastic! He took great care of our little girl, and she and his dog Ron truly bonded and had great fun doing various outdoor adventures! We would highly recommend Bryan for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Delaney was so wonderful with our dogs! We had never left them for a full week, so I was nervous about this. She was very communicative and gave plenty of updates. I could tell our dogs were comfortable and happy through the pictures and videos she would send. She stayed in our apartment and also left it spotless. I would highly recommend booking Delaney next time you need a dog sitter!!!”
“Lizzie was so amazing! Our younger dog gets really excited and dogs jump on new people (he is in classes for that). She was so sweet and patient with him. Throughout her whole stay with the dogs she sent multiple photos, checked in with us regularly, and was always very attentive with the dogs. Dogs were fed on time (following all the details we left behind), they went on long walks and never had an issue. We would absolutely book her again!”
“Chloe was awesome with my temperamental cat who is older and not the easiest to get along with. She was extremely flexible and communicative from the first time I messaged her and even went out of her way to return my extra key before the stay when I realized I briefly needed it back. Left my place very clean and my cat relaxed and comfortable during a heat wave. I would recommend her if you also have a cat who needs a lot of patience and personal space.”

Abigail was wonderful! My pet-sitting plans changed at the very last minute, and she seriously saved the day. She was able to house-sit my dog and two cats on short notice and was so accommodating about stopping by beforehand to meet everyone and grab the keys. She sent me a daily update, which made me feel so much better while I was away. It was such a relief knowing my little crew had someone there with them and were being well taken care of. She was also super respectful of my home. I’d absolutely book with Abigail again!
Olivia took such great care of my dog!! She was flexible with drop in times and was super easy to work with which made me feel comfortable going out of town. She was able to drop by when I needed, take my dog for long walks, and took care of him in all the ways I needed. Highly recommend booking her!! Will absolutely use her services again 💜
Holly was an incredible house sitter for our two older dogs! Professional, proactive, and sent frequent detailed updates and photos. Our pups were very well cared for and the house looked great upon our arrival home. Highly recommend her services and we would love to work with her again in the future!
Corbin is a truly great pet + house sitter, and we feel so lucky to have found him! He took great care of our pup and our home while we were away for a week. He checked-in regularly with photos and updates, and responded promptly whenever we reached out. He is very professional, kind, and overall just seems like a great person. He left our place very clean and tidy, and our pup really seemed to bond with him well as a new best friend. We would gladly recommend Corbin’s services, and look forward to working with him again soon.
Quinn did such good job house sitting! He took great care of my dog and was clean and respectful of the house. He sent photo updates and I could tell my dog was happy and in good hands. I had great peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely book Quinn again!
Annie is great!! She took care of 3 dogs including my mom's skittish dog who she eventually won over. All dogs were happy when I came home and Annie even picked up dog poop in the backyard and put the sheets in the washer for me - she goes above and beyond! Thanks so much Annie!
Alex was nothing short of amazing! She was very communicative before and during her sit. She took great care of our two kitties and dog, and when we returned our house was in excellent condition and it was clear she went out of her way for us, beyond just being a great caretaker to our animals. We will absolutely be reaching out to Alex again.
Amber was amazing for our 2 week trip abroad! She went out of her way to come by twice beforehand to meet the pets and check out the house, which really helped ease our nerves about leaving them. Came home to happy animals and a spotless house. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Missoula on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 307 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Missoula. 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 Missoula 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 Missoula 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 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Missoula. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
