About: I grew up in a small town in Alaska, surrounded by sled dogs and multiple house dogs. I’ve been trusted to dog sit for many family friends and others in my town. I love getting to know and connecting with other animals. I have many gaps in my day which I am available to dog walk or let dogs out. I’m also free on weekends and most days of the week and can be very flexible. I always make sure pets are surrounded in a safe and caring environment. They are my number one priority when and I am with them. I will always make sure their basic needs and more are met.
“This was our first experience with leaving our fur babies with someone other than family. Nina was absolutely awesome! After meeting her and her husband, we were very comfortable leaving our 12 year old blind, diabetic dog and our 3 year old very shy and nervous shih tzu. She took such great care of them. We HIGHLY recommend Nina and would definitely use her services if we visit Bozeman again! She was competent, knowledgeable, and very loving! Thanks Nina for making our experience such a positive one!”
“As a first-time Rover user, I was pretty anxious about leaving my pups with someone I didn't know. Tara was amazing! She sent plenty of pictures and videos, and it was obvious our dogs were being loved on and having a great time. Knowing they were safe and happy made it so much easier for me to relax and enjoy my day. We are so grateful for the care she and her family gave our two mini schnauzers, and we'll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
About: I love pets, the outdoors and exercise. If your pet needs wearing out while you are away then you are in the right spot. I have been caring for pets for 30 years. I have a dog of my own and dedicate time every day to pet walks and exercise. I would love to bring your pet into our routine! I can come to you or you can bring your pet to us. I can be flexible to the needs of you and your pet.
“Had the most positive experience with Ben. We had a little meet and greet before Ranger’s visit which put me totally at ease leaving my baby with Ben and Riley. Ranger was immediately welcomed and accepted by Ben’s doggo Bella. Ben was completely accommodating with my schedule for drop off and pick up which was totally amazing. Would highly recommend Ben for your daycare needs. Super happy experience for me!”
About: As a Miami native and seasoned concierge professional, I have over a decade of experience in house sitting, pet care, and plant maintenance. My deep love for animals and nature drives me to provide attentive, reliable care—whether it’s looking after your furry friends or keeping your plants thriving. You can count on me for dedicated pet sitting, dog walking, or watering services with the same care I’d give my own! I make my own schedule and work mostly from home, so I am available to go to you with very little to no notice in advance! I was a rescue schnauzer mom that had so much love for her pup (lost him Oct. 2023 👼 🌈 ). Over the last 20 years, I have taken rescues off of the streets and rehomed them... and with Maxie my schnauzer, I just knew he had to stay with me! I will care for your home and your pets as though they are my Maxie! You have my word.
About: Hi! I’m Peyten, and dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and currently have two dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog like family. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years watching friends’ and family members’ dogs and figured it was finally time to create a profile and help other dog owners too! I work from home full-time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. We also have a fully fenced backyard, and my dogs and I love walks, hikes, park trips, and spending time outside. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers couch cuddles, I’m happy to match their vibe and routine. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos during their stay if that’s something you’d like! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I work from home full-time and already care for my own two dogs every day. My schedule allows for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of supervision throughout the day — not just mornings and evenings. We’re active and love getting outside for walks, hikes, or park trips, but there’s also plenty of downtime for dogs who prefer a calmer routine. I’m happy to follow whatever routine or schedule the owner has for their dog to help them feel comfortable and at home. Since I work from home, I regularly let my dogs outside for fresh air and playtime throughout the day, and we usually fit in walks, hikes, or a game of fetch at the park during the week.
About: I have hands on experience caring for my family's pets. A dog, mini aussie doodle, who we've had for 5 years and two cats, persian, who are 5 and 8. My responsibilities and experiences include daily feeding, walking, playtime and bathing. Through this, I've learned how to be consistent, patient, and attentive to ear pet's needs. I work a full time 9-5 job, but I'm available in the evenings for walks, drop ins or overnight care. I am also able to step out during the day for check-ins and walks as needed. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and am available for pet sitting or extended car. At my home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable, with a fenced yard for ppl aging and quick access to the Galligator trail for walks and fresh air. I make sure they have a safe, calm environment and lots of attention. When caring for a pet in a clients home, I follow their usual routines carefully, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, playtime or downtime. Making sure pets feel secure and at ease in their own space.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Story
Deanna was great! Our labrador gets very excited when he realizes we’re going to her house, and comes come happy and tired after a day with her and her family. He gets a good walk and when they’re home he stays entertained by her children and dogs. Deanna keeps me informed and takes photos to share. We’re so lucky to be able to rely on her when we need a Bozeman dog sitter!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Story commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
