“Katherine and Jacob are incredible people and caretakers. I received in depth breakdowns of the day’s activities as well as many photos. It was clear our dog was well taken care of. We highly recommend Katherine and Jacob and hope to be able to use them again. Thank you!”
“Ashley was a fantastic communicator and sent pupdates. I was very comfortable leaving Nova with her. They did so many fun activities. I highly recommend Ashley and would definitely go with her again.”
“Traci and family took very good care of my boys 🐶🐶. She sent pictures of our 2 dogs every day, including after I left and they settled in. They seemed pretty chill when I picked them up, so I knew they had been doing ok. I would definitely recommend Traci to anyone looking for a small dog pet sitter!”
“Sara is the best! She treated our dog with so much love and attention. He was sad to leave! Sara was a life saver and swooped in to care for our dog when our other plans fell through. She accommodated our flight change and communicated throughout the stay with some of the best pics we have of our dog. Thank you, Sara! We’ve already booked another stay.”
“Margaret was great with Penny. Penny was pretty anxious when we left her, and Margaret helped her to feel comfortable and happy. She lives in a great spot with a fenced back yard where Penny could hang out and explore. We recommend Margaret and would definitely ask her to watch Penny again.”
“Leni loves going to Cait L and her family! She is always so happy when I pick her up, clearly has had a wonderful time. Thank you Cait and James for taking good care of her.”
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.
“Allie was a great sitter for my dog Jamie when we were visiting Montana. I would gladly use Allie again and would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter in the Bozeman area!”
About: I’ve had my own dogs & cats all my life and love to love them! I’ve dog sat 7 dogs at one time and they were all such happy campers! I do not currently live with all of my pets! Puhi and Bass, my cats, live with me. I am currently a full-time student and work part time at a local restaurant. I do have lots of free time where I would love to take care of some dogs and cats to fill my time. I am very aware of my surroundings when I’m in charge of other peoples animals. I can crate them if needed and walk them as much as needed, etc.
About: Since I can remember I have been around dogs, cats, and birds. I have recently adopted my own dog named Harley who is stranger reactive so I am very comfortable dealing with going at the dog's/cat's pace of comfortability. I love the outdoors and exploring with my dog as she slowly learns to trust others and new environments. Long walks and cuddles are my priority while you are away. I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! My work schedule is super flexible and easy to change if there are any last minute changes. Fenced in yard with room to play ball. Lots of room for playing or just enjoying the sun in the back yard. Triggers are blocked off by trees and the fence.
“Raina provided excellent care for our dog Sienna. She quickly made Sienna feel comfortable, giving us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We got regular updates and Raina was always responsive with our communication, which was much appreciated as well! If you are in need of a thoughtful, responsive, and caring pet sitter, we would recommend Raina (& Ridley)!”
“Katherine was such a fabulous dogsitter. She was our first Rover and she set the bar so high. She is a great communicator, she was flexible with us when our trip plans changed and was flexible with planning around drop off/pick up. She sent us daily updates of their adventures with pics and videos. We kept joking the dog was having a better vacation than we were. We would absolutely send our pup to stay with Katherine and Nuggets again and would happily recommend her to others.”
“Finn provided excellent care for my dog, Titan! A major perk was the large, well-maintained backyard with solid fencing—absolutely perfect for a husky who loves being outside in cold weather while still staying safe and secure. I’d highly recommend Finn, especially for cold-loving dogs.”

Traci was amazing. Our Walter is a senior and needs eyes drops and other medication. Traci did wonderful and I loved the photos she would send. Always replied back quickly. She really helped our trip feel less stressful knowing Walter was with her. Thank you again Traci! 😊
Haille was a wonderful sitter for our two big dogs while we were in Bozeman for a visit! She was a great communicator, sent photos, and overall took great care of the dogs while she had them. She made sure to go over everything they needed for their routine and ask all the questions specific to their individual needs. We could tell they were well taken care of. I'd definitely recommend Haille for your dog sitting needs!!
Finn provided excellent care for my dog, Titan! A major perk was the large, well-maintained backyard with solid fencing—absolutely perfect for a husky who loves being outside in cold weather while still staying safe and secure. I’d highly recommend Finn, especially for cold-loving dogs.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Patterson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Patterson home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Patterson.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Patterson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
