Cat Sitting Patterson

About: I grew up on a farm riding horses, tending cats, rabbits, dogs, calves, puppies and chickens. I am a former Kindergarten and First Grade teacher who is excited to meet you and your special pet! Will follow your instructions carefully. I am mostly retired which allows plenty of time to spend with your pet. Thank you for entrusting your friend to my warm, reliable care. My home is an stress-free, safe and loving accommodation for your friend. Dogs will sleep in my queen bed with me or their bed—wherever they are most comfortable. Pet owners can relax and enjoy time away knowing all is well with your friend.

“Bryant did a superb job with our three cats! He made himself available on short notice and did a great job tending to their individual meds. We could tell the cats liked him, too. Would definitely hire again!”

About: I have experienced training and raising my childhood dog, an English Mastiff, up until she passed among sitting other dogs of many ages. I have learned how to care for, train, and set boundaries with puppies as well as learning patience and intentional or special care with senior dogs. I work full time 4 days a week, so I am available 3 days a week for sitting, playing, walking, and feeding! Specifically, I am available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am happy to crate dogs who may have a mischievous personality, or leave them out depending on my clients trust with them. I am also happy to leash pets on walks or work on recall over time if needed. I am open to following extensive feeding routines to care extra for the ones who need it!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, mainly rescues or shelter dogs. Additionally, my prior job was a groomer/bather at Muddy Paws in Bend OR. I’m comfortable with large reactive dogs. I enjoy long hikes so if you want your dog worn out that can be done! Currently studying geography at MSU, with an accommodating schedule. I will be in Bozeman for the majority of the summer, during which I will not be taking classes. My availability is regularly updated. My dogs have currently replaced me at home, my parents now have 3 dog children. I was raised that they were “my siblings” and appreciate their individual personalities. I got Amelia (the black lab) at 9 years old, she grew up to be occasionally reactive and therefore spent a long time learning how to adapt my approach to supporting her. I love walking around town, but end up staying away from crowds in order to get a productive walk in for my dogs.

About: I have experience pet sitting for dogs, especially caring for a reactive one for a couple of years. I understand how to work with fearful dogs and will care for them regardless. I can walk, feed, and even give medication as needed. I have a deep passion for animals, especially dogs, and I would love to be able to care for yours! I have also worked alongside veterinarians to gain experience in animal handling. I love all dogs, big and small, and I know I could provide great care for your pup! I’m currently a student at Montana State, but all of my classes end at two. I’m available on the weekends for overnights and day pet sitting. I will care for your pets like my own, but I also understand that many pets have different boundaries. I will always respect their boundaries and make sure that your animals are comfortable and happy in their own spaces. Whether that means crates, time spend apart, or time spent together, I will make sure that your pets still feel like they are home.

About: I have had pets my whole life and have experience pet-sitting, including both dogs and cats. I currently have a 1-year-old kitten and have gone through all of the kitty phases. I love staying active with dogs and giving lots of belly rubs and love. I am a student at MSU with a flexible schedule. My weekends, evenings, and afternoons are free. I am able to provide 2-3 visits a day when my schedule allows for it! I treat every pet as if they are my own. I am reliable and quick to adapt. I follow careful instructions to ensure that I meet the needs of your pet's routine.

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!

About: As a veterinary nurse for 3+ years, I have learned a great deal about animal wellbeing and behavior. Each pet is a snowflake, and they all have special quirks about them. My animal care journey first started as a teen working at a dog kennel. This gave me a lot of exposure to different breeds, their eating habits, and some quick, natural fixes to help with digestive issues. I began working in a veterinary hospital in town for a year until I moved to Oregon, where I worked at a mixed animal clinic for 2 years. I recently moved back to Bozeman but still fill my days with veterinary medicine. I’m honored to support pets through some of the hardest days of their life in the most compassionate ways that I can. I am very comfortable taking on dogs and cats with different physical, medical, and social needs. I’m also able to watch pocket pets, goats, sheep, and pigs. As someone who regularly works around pets that are experiencing something outside of their routine, I am deeply passionate about making them as comfortable, and happy as possible! I would love to meet you and your furry (or bald!) companion so you can enjoy that overdue R&R or a quick weekend away! I work full time M-F with Wednesdays off. I am available any reasonable time outside those hours for walks, drop ins, potty breaks, feeding time, etc.! Since I am only accepting drop ins and walks right now, my time spent in your home is pretty limited unless you request otherwise. I take my shoes off when entering, and I return things to their original places (leashes, remaining treats, spare key, etc.). I treat your home as if it were my own!

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting with my Westie, then my tortoiseshell cat, and now my energetic Border Collie/Heeler mix. Having pets with different personalities and needs has taught me the importance of patience, attention to detail, and dedicated care. I’m a safe, trustworthy person who truly enjoys making animals feel comfortable, loved, and secure. I’m also very active and love running, hiking, and biking, so I’m especially great with energetic dogs who need lots of exercise and engagement. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their happiness and well-being. I’m currently a substitute teacher in Bozeman, and pet sitting through Rover is a meaningful way for me to supplement my income while doing something I genuinely enjoy. Working in schools has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, which naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. I’m dependable, trustworthy, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I live right along a park, so daily walks are already a big part of my routine with my Border Collie/Heeler mix. My dog is very friendly, active, and would love to have some new walking buddies from time to time. We spend a lot of time outside exploring trails, getting exercise, and enjoying fresh air, so your dog would get plenty of activity, attention, and companionship while in my care. If you would NOT like your furry friend to have a companion, please let me know, and I can accomodate whatever routines you have.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on pet care. I currently own a cat, and I have years of experience walking dogs for family friends. Additionally, my time volunteering at an animal shelter gave me great practical skills—from feeding and cleaning up after cats to watering, exercising, and safely walking dogs of all sizes. Because I limit my apartment boarding to just one or two pets, your fur baby will get focused, one-on-one attention in a calm environment. As a student who also works, my daily routine is structured but flexible. I am fully available for morning and evening care, and I balance my schedule so I can easily fit in midday check-ins, walks, and drop-in visits between my classes and shifts. Because I manage my time carefully, pet care fits naturally into my day, ensuring your pet gets consistent attention and regular potty breaks right on schedule. In my home, safety and a low-stress environment are my top priorities. Because I live in an apartment with my own cat, I only board one or two pets at a time, ensuring they get dedicated one-on-one attention and have plenty of space to feel comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strictly follow the owner's exact instructions regarding their routine, feeding schedules, and safety boundaries. Whether at my home or yours, I always double check that doors and gates are secure, maintain a calm atmosphere, and keep a close eye on body language to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved.

About: Hi there! My name is Samantha and since I am home full-time, your pets will receive my undivided attention and a flexible routine tailored exactly to their needs. I genuinely love both cats and dogs, and I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence. Whether I am staying at your home, dropping in, or out on a walk, your pet's safety is my absolute top priority. I can confidently monitor everything they chew on, what they eat, and keep a strict, watchful eye whenever they are outside around other dogs. What sets me apart is my extensive, practical experience with medical and senior care. I am entirely comfortable administering pills, liquids, specialty diets, and medical shots (like insulin). Services I Offer: ~In-Your-Home Sitting, Walks, & Drop-Ins: Available for cats and dogs of all ages. ~Senior-Only Boarding (My Home): I live right on a beautiful trail system perfect for peaceful, low-impact walks! I have two sweet senior dogs of my own who love calm company. Because my dogs prefer a quiet environment, I happily open my home to fellow senior dogs only—no energetic puppies, just a relaxed space for older pups to lounge and stroll safely.I treat every animal in my care with the same love, protection, and respect I give my own! Because I am home full-time with an open schedule, I am flexible and can easily structure my days around your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication timelines. My regular day already revolves around senior pet care. I live right on a beautiful trail system, so my mornings and evenings include peaceful, low-impact trail walks. If I am house sitting for you, doing drop-ins, or hosting a fellow senior dog at my place, your pet will seamlessly fit into this relaxed, attentive routine. In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins): When I watch your pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine exactly as it is to prevent any stress. I am hyper-vigilant about their safety. I closely monitor everything they chew on or eat, and I keep a watchful eye whenever we are outside around other dogs. I am highly experienced with medical routines, so I can smoothly handle precise schedules for pills, liquid medications, specialty diets, and medical shots (like insulin).

About: Owner of two dogs - an Alaskan shepherd and a corgi! Two very different personalities and needs have led me to be very practiced in dog card. I love all creatures big and small and will always treat your pets like my own. I work remotely for a local company so am available all times of the work day. I have a few extracurricular activities for about an hour or so on Wednesdays and Thursdays, otherwise I am open. As a pet owner, I love communication, update, and photos from people who watch my pets and I strive to always do the same. Walks and enrichment time are my forte.

About: I always had bogs growing up and everyone in my family always had dogs too! There was never a place where a dog wasn’t there! I’m a college student with lots of free time. I have two part time jobs care taking kids and the elderly and I love caring to people who need my assistance. I’m energetic, happy and I have a very open schedule to be with your amazing pets. I currently have one dog and cat in my home. That’s receive lots of attention and love at home. I care very deeply about animals and always help one in need.

About: I am a local college student who’s grown up around dogs my whole life, so I’m really comfortable with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I also had a cat for a few years in college, so I have experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also done a lot of dog walking with my aunt, who owns a dog walking business called Waggin Tails in my hometown. That gave me experience handling different dogs and making sure they’re safe and getting the exercise they need. I’m reliable, easygoing, and will take good care of your pet like it’s my own! I just graduated from MSU and I’m working very part-time this summer at Sol Barre (about 1.5 hours a day), so I have plenty of time the rest of the day for pet care. I’m also taking one online class, which I can do from anywhere, so my schedule is really flexible. I’m available to take pets on walks, adventures, and spend quality time with them throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and no other pets at home so whether your animal loves or doesnt love other animals my home is a safe space! I live right down the street from two large dog parks and love going on long nature walks. I think attention is the most important part of pet care. I always make sure pets are safe, not getting into anything they shouldn’t, and are comfortable in their environment. I pay close attention to their behavior and routines so they feel secure and cared for. I also make sure to spend quality time with them doing what they enjoy,whether that’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out, so they feel happy and relaxed while you’re away.
