“Daria was awesome with my dog! She came in a day early to do a quick meet and greet. She was very friendly and treated my pup great! Would highly recommend her, and fully plan on rebooking her in the future!”
About: I have been a dog owner for most of my life and I have once been a dog trainer and I now work in doggy daycare. My goal is to build my entire career around dogs! They have always been my passion and hold a special place in my heart. There is no better friend than a dog! I am a dog trainer so I base my whole day at work and at home on basic dog training commands constantly to keep my dog and myself in tune. I always make sure my dog is comfortable whether that’s the environment indoors or making sure her bed is clean and comfy. I refresh her water every 1 to 2 hours even if it’s full just to get hair, dirt, etc. out of the bowl and have clean water. I do tiny things like this constantly to make sure my dog and clients dogs are always comfortable.
About: I love dogs and would love the opportunity to watch yours. I am a very active person, I love being outside. I'm happy to take the dog out as much as you'd like, to the beach on hikes etc. I also have great references. I can't wait to meet you and your pup!
About: Hello Friends! I stop every dog I see on the street to say hello! Rover is my way of getting in my dog fix in the in between of getting my own pup. I have experience sitting all sizes and ages of dogs, as well as working with aging animals who need a little more love and care! My own dog lived till 17.5 years so I have a lot of experience caring for older dogs. I am happy to watch any furry friend that comes my way. I have dog sat all across the country and I will treat your dog as if it were my own!! I am working a part time job in Bozeman this winter, so a sit within 30 minutes of town would be the best fit for me! Please note: I have been professionally pet sitting off rover for several years now with repeat clients where I previously lived, hence no recent reviews on Rover. Using Rover again now in Bozeman to establish some wonderful repeat clients! Please don’t hesitate to reach out. I am a Boat Captain and professional guide who travels for work. I have my availability set for when I’m home in Bozeman, which likely means I have the time to dedicate to taking care of and giving my attention to loving some wonderful pets. Please note: I am working a part time job in Bozeman this winter, so a sit within 30 minutes of town would be the best fit for me! I have experienced sitting a variety of dogs in a variety of different homes, with yards without yards with crates without crates. Whatever you need, I got you! I always treat my clients pets with the same love and kindness as if they were my own.
About: I’ve been dog walking and dog sitting since middle school. I’ve always had a love for dogs of any size. I love being able to give them the one on one attention they deserve whether it’s with a walk, run, playing fetch or just scratching their belly! I value trust and the relationship with the dog as well as their owner. Their dogs are their family! I’m an early riser and while I love to be on the trails, I don’t travel much which makes me more readily available for your furry friend! I appreciate being able to give dogs one on one attention. Playing with toys, going on walks or scratching their bellies is my forte! In my opinion, our pets are our family members! I think it’s important for the dog to trust whoever is watching them so I prefer to meet the dog once with the owner before I watch alone so the owner also feels comfortable.
About: I am a trained Veterinary Tech Assistant that worked in animal rescue / spay & neuter clinic. I also previously worked in a small, local pet store where I became educated and extremely fascinated with pet health and animal nutrition! I absolutely love spoiling and spending time with all critters, so please do me a favor and give me a call! I am very flexible, and will also admit that my dog eats WAY better than I do, so I’ll be sure to accommodate any of your best friends needs!! I am a stay at home mom, and I have a very flexible schedule. My rates are lower than most in the area as I am not able to do overnights in your home, and full disclosure - there’s a chance one of my kids might need to tag along with me during drop ins. I enjoy being outdoors rain (more likely snow) or shine, and I’ll be keeping the dogs company for a game of fetch or some belly rubs in the yard. I have a large un-fenced yard, and a comfortable indoor area for dogs to play or unwind. I can easily accommodate space for a crate if your pup has their own.
“Val was so prompt and reliable when picking Evie up from my workplace, and the two of them had a lovely walk! This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t recommend Val more. Evie clearly had a great time, and I’ll definitely be booking with Val again!”
About: I love animals and have a ton of experience! I will put your fur baby above my own any day of the week! Reach out when you need some extra hands to take care of you pet! I am a full time student and I am on the volleyball team so managing practice time around the pet is important but very easy to work around. I go on daily walks with my dog. He’s a border collie mix. His name is Byrd and she is super sweet. I live in an apartment complex with doggy parks and a dog wash station!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 13 Years old and have had experience with both young and senior pets. I was responsible for training some of my own family's pets, and I enjoy adapting to basic training with puppies or providing gentle and patient care for older pets who need extra support. I am very reliable with feeding schedules, medications, and updates so you can feel fully confidnet you pet is in good hands! Pet care fits into my routine by being something I attentively prioritize and plan around. I structure my schedule so I can give pets full attention during visits and walks. I am flexible with all times throughout the day, whether that be mornings, afternoons, or evenings. This helps me to accommodate feeding schedules, exercise needs, and check-ins. I prioritize building my day to be reliable so each pet receives consistent and effective care. When I am caring for a client's pet, I follow an established routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure under my care. I prioritize important aspects of schedules, including feedings, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep homes clean, respect the spaces of those I am hired by, and love to provide regular photo updates so owners know their pet is doing well. My overall goal is to keep a calm, familiar environment that reduces stress for pets.
About: I have had dogs throughout my entire life. Two of which live with my parents back in my hometown, and we have had them since they were puppies. With both dogs, I have personally crate trained and potty trained them both, as well as trained them to sit, lay down, and wait for their food. Additionally, a fun skill one of mine has learned is to wait and lift up each leg to get his harness on. While that is all experience with my own dogs, I have also done many drop in visits and overnight sitting for other pets. I am currently work a full-time job and am available to care for your pets in the evenings during the weekdays. As for weekends, I am available for boarding at my home, walks and drop-in visits! In your home, I will make sure that your pets are comfortable with me before proceeding, as this is the most important! Additionally, if you crate your dogs, I will make sure that they get to potty, play, and have water before returning to their crate. I am always open for any special requests that you may have, such as help with training, bathing, etc.

Savannah was incredible! She showed up on time and spent extra time on her walk with Layka. I highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again in the future. In her meet and greet (introduction) she asked very pointed questions and had a great follow up. She treats your pet like her own and shows you right away that she cares about your animal.
My Dog is so excited to see Kaya when she arrives to take her for a walk. Kaya is reliable , communicative and has become a true companion for my dog. She sends me photos daily of their walks along with a map of where they went. There are plenty of great Dog walkers out there, but it would be hard to find anyone better than Kaya.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Story. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
