About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats and dogs my whole life! Living in the same neighborhood during my childhood, I was the go-to pet sitter on the street. I love creating a safe and loving space for animals, and ensuring you enjoy your time away knowing your pet is taken care of! I’m currently working M-F at a coffee shop but my hours vary depending on the day. I can be free at any time! I live in town, super close to most places. I have my own transportation and reliability ready to go to provide trustworthy, consistent, and safe care for your family.

“Olivia was great with Charlie! She was timely in both her response time to messages and arriving to my house to care for my dog 😊 I hope to rebook with her in the future!”
About: I’ve worked with various animals for over 10 years, and in that time I have also pet sit for friends. I am comfortable handling a wide range of pets. My rabbit is 10 years young and thriving, and my cat is almost 3 and rambunctious. I am experienced in dog, cat, or other senior care. I have also helped friends with socializing foster puppies. I am confident in giving oral medication as well! I just graduated college with a degree in animal science. I recently picked up a job during weekdays in Trumbull, but I can still walk your dog/watch your pet! Generally, I am free: Sat/Sun - Anytime M-F - Extremely early morning or after 3:30pm I will always provide fresh water when I come in and before I leave. If the pet makes a mess I will immediately dispose of it, however if any part of the mess was assumed to be ingested I will let the owner know as soon as possible. Should the pet use the bathroom in the house I will clean and sanitize the area and dispose of the waste outside. The pet will have my full attention and treated with respect during my time with it.
“We love Nina to care for our fur babies, Willi and Fluffer - they’re 60lbs each and she handles them with love, leaving us sweet handwritten notes and paying attention to their vibe…sometimes she takes it slow and lets them sniff, other times they get some good mileage in. We’re so appreciative of her care and flexibility - we are weekly recurring customers and would definitely recommend her!”
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 have been around pets my whole life and they bring me so much joy. I am eager to work with any type and size of pet! I am dependable and will communicate efficiently with pet owners. I work a standard 40 hour work week 5 days a week but am able to come home on lunch breaks for walks, potty breaks, play time, etc! I do not have a pet at the moment, so all the love that I would provide for my own will be going towards your pets! My favorite place to be is outside so I would enjoy going on long walks or throwing a ball for your dog.
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: Hi! While I’m an Alabama native, my husband is originally from Bozeman! We moved back here to his hometown after the birth of our first niece in early 2025. I currently have almost 100% open availability to help with your furry (or scaly or fuzzy or feathered) friends! Feel free to reach out to confirm if the dates you need assistance work with my schedule. I have a lifetime of experience with all animals (well most). I have experience with the obvious (dogs, cats, fish, etc) but also am well versed in care for reptiles big and small, turtles, frogs, birds, and invertebrates. I personally have at home a sweet old lady tarantula, Cranberry, 2 feisty rescue cats named Alice and Benny, a chihuahua mix, Stella, and our precious 3 year old Golden Retriever, Chief. Thanks so much, please reach out with any questions! I’m currently not working a traditional 9-5 job, so that means I have plenty of time to help out fellow pet lovers in the area make sure their critters have the most exceptional care while they’re away or unavailable. I care for all pet kiddos like they’re my own! Animals in my care get all the hugs, kisses, and pets (within their comfort level). I also try to ensure that pet parents receive a very detailed description of our time together along with many photos!
About: I absolutely love and adore all dogs! I grew up with a border collie and cared for her when she got old! I also have a 4 year old border collie and am not new to the puppy phases! :) I have dog sat for many of my neighbors growing up and since then. I am happy to meet you and your dog! Like I said I am a pet owner and work a full time job. So I have nothing short of a busy life, but I would love to add your fur friend to my agenda! :) The dogs will go out and play multiple times a day as I have the yard space to allow fetch, chase, or even just lounging. I live in a ground level apartment with an unfenced yard. There is plenty space between the yard and the road, which isn’t a very busy one anyway, but your pet will be safe from any cars, etc. I live about a 5-10 minute walk from Gallatin Regional Dog Park, so if your fur friend needs a fenced in space to run and play, that is an option as well! I also love to explore new parks around town and go on hikes so plenty of adventures will be in place! We will check out different dog parks, go swimming (if that’s what they like), go on hikes, play fetch, go on car rides, and of course cuddle! Nova (my dog) and I live a very busy lifestyle. When I am not at work, we (including your furry friend) will be going on hikes, camping trips, water days, car rides, visit my parents (up in the mountains), or just hang out in the backyard and play. We don’t always go on big adventures as I have plenty of yard space for the dogs to roam freely and run and exercise as needed. *If you are uncomfortable with your pet doing any of these things, please communicate ahead of time or expect some activities to occur.
About: Hi! I have a year of experience volunteering at Heart of the valley animal shelter here in Bozeman, as well as several years of dog/house sitting! Additionally, I have experience working in a senior care center for individuals with dementia. I’m currently working part time and a college student, which means I have some flexibility in my schedule! I’m available Monday and Wednesday 12:30-2:00 and anytime after 4:30. Tuesday and Thursday I’m available anytime before 8am and anytime after 5:45pm. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their comfort, safety, and routine my top priority. In a client's home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, exercise, and any special requests. During walks, I prioritize safe leash handling, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention. I also provide updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. I respect my clients' homes by keeping them clean, locking doors, and leaving everything just as I found it.
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: Dogs have been part of my life since day one — I grew up with everything from spirited poodles to goofy Portuguese Water Dogs to stubborn, sausage-shaped dachshunds, so I’ve got a soft spot for every size, coat, and personality quirk. That early exposure turned into a real passion, and I’ve been professionally walking and sitting dogs since I was 18. I’m an active, outdoorsy person, and I bring that energy to every walk and visit — plenty of play, exploration, and enthusiasm, tailored to whatever your dog is into (fetch fanatic, sniff-everything explorer, or couch cuddler, I’m here for it). What I love most about this work is getting to know each dog as an individual: their quirks, their personalities, their little routines. I treat every dog in my care like my own 🐶🩷 I just moved here and have nothing but time! I am doing some research part time from home, but will have lots of time for your pet :) I know inviting someone into your home to care for your dog is a big trust to extend, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m highly educated, reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll follow your care instructions to the letter, keep your home just as tidy as I found it, and send you photo and video updates so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Your dog’s safety is always my top priority: I’m careful with doors and gates, attentive to any anxiety or health needs, and quick to reach out if anything ever seems off. You can relax knowing your dog — and your home — are in good hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Story
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Story is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 530 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Story. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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 Story. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Story after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Story. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
