“Kenny and Michelle and family were such a pleasure to connect with. From the minute we dropped Hank off to pickup I could tell he was in excellent hands. Their two kids were so kind to Hank and I loved getting photos of him on walks. Hank is an older dog who takes medication for arthritis and I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive and gentle environment for him. I will definitely check their availability next time in Missoula.”
“Megan and Matt took such incredible care of our pup! They welcomed him into their home and treated him like one of their own dogs. They sent pics of their adventures and took Huck on several hikes! He was one happy pup! We will absolutely be asking them to watch him again!”
“Tavia was amazing with my little girl Autumn ! Always sent me pictures/videos with an update on how she was doing! Great communication always ! I so recommend her to take care of your puppy/dog while you’re away !”
“Emma is extraordinary, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Cleo got tons of snuggles, comfortable lounging time, and plenty of exercise. She got long walks on her favorite trails and playtime with Emma’s dog, Brody. Emma is very experienced and confidently handled Cleo’s personality quirks and occasional reactivity. She also sent detailed updates and absolutely gorgeous photos. I would trust her with Cleo again in a heartbeat.”
“Andrea and her pup, Ruger, came through when we had an unexpected trip come up. She took care of our dog-girl with no issues at all. Would definitely use her again!”
“Jen is an amazing dog sitter. Our 3.5 year old mixed breed Abby has a blast and is so well cared for at Jen's house. Abby loves playing with Jen's dog as well as Jen and we feel very comfortable leaving her with Jen when we head out of town.”
“Kerry and her family are amazing! They watched our dogs for a long weekend and both dogs were so relaxed and chill when they came home. It was clear that their needs were well taken care of and that they got a lot of love while they were at Kerry's place. Can't ask for anything more than that. Kerry also kept us highly entertained with a bunch of sweet and goofy pics. Which also meant we had no worries.”
“Brianna is the best dog sitter .. we came with a last minute plan to travel to Montana .. Not only Brianna accommodated our last minute boarding request our dog who usually is hesitant in the new surrounding was comfortable and at ease in first 5 minutes.. Brianna was very prompt about sending multiple pictures which was an additional peace of mind .. Totally Recommend her .. had the best experience”
“Barbara took great care of our 1-year-old Black and Tan Coonhound while we were visiting Glacier National Park for a few days. She was extremely responsive through the booking process and made it very easy for us! Our pup would have loved to stay even longer and play with her Golden Retriever. We will certainly book her again next time we are in the area!”
“Nicole was so amazing! She took such good care of our 2 pups and sent us regular updates. We have one high energy dog and one who has some health issues that limits her amount of exercise and Nicole worked with both of them to make sure they got what they needed! We will definitely be using her again”
“We have never had a anything but great experiences with Rover but Teresa was the absolute BEST! Gracie, who is pretty high strung and doesn’t take to just anyone, immediately felt comfortable with her. Teresa’s easy manner and obvious love of dogs made leaving Gracie with her so comforting! She took her swimming (not once but twice!) and sent photos throughout her stay. I highly recommend Teresa. I’d give her six stars if I could.”
“Nicole and Connor took such great care of Archer. He’s a young puppy. This is his first time with other people and dogs so it could not have been easy dealing with him, but they were still so patient and understanding. Then our flight got delayed and we had to extend another day unfortunately, and they were both so gracious about it.”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
“Our dog had a great time! Danielle went out of her way to make everything as easy as possible for us. Danielle and Leroy took great care of our dog and kept him busy and happy. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Gabrielle took such good care of our dog and new puppy! She went on walks down by the river, played with the dogs, and sent us pictures throughout the day so we could see how they were doing. We definitely trust Gabrielle and highly recommend her. She is just wonderful. Thank you for everything you did to make our dogs happy. Our oldest dog, Tucker, didn't want to leave Gabrielle's house when we came to pick up the dogs after our trip. A true testament to how well they were treated. Thank you!”
“Our older dog was well taken care of by Ellen. We received cute updates and quick communication. Would be happy to have her look after our Sidney again and Sidney would be happy to see her!”
“Tlhis was my first time leaving my Aussie Steel with a dog sitter. He's with me almost 24/7 because of my job. I'm sure I had a much harder time than he did! Ben told me about some of his regulars that he watches, and that they would be coming when Steel wad there. From the videos that Ben sent to me and the updates, I could see Steel was in good company and doing great!! He got lots of outside time, ate well and was completely worn out from a hike when I picked him up! :) I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Ben”
“Leah treated my dog Boo like a king. I couldn't have been happier about his stay with her, and neither could Boo. Leah's a great communicator-I received daily feedback of what they were doing, where they went, and reports on his behavior, how he got along with her dogs, and pictures(!). She has 2 dogs that were super playful and sweet with Boo. Leah was very careful to introduce our dogs first, which clued me in to how responsible and caring she is. While Boo was there, not only did he get to play in her yard and cuddle on the couch with her (um, he's 65 lbs and growing), she also took him on outings-including the dog island! I would definitely use Leah again and felt super comfortable about her taking care of my buddy. Highly recommended. Thank you Leah-from both of us! You're awesome!”
“Annika is the most kind and compassionate Rover we’ve interacted with. We were in a pinch with a previous sitter falling through and she willingly helped us out last minute. She was also an amazing communicator, shared regular updates, and made us feel at ease living our pup with her. Annika has a very calming presence and our firework-anxious pup did very well with her over July 4th weekend. Highly recommend and am already looking for another time to book her.”
About: I have previously owned Labradoodles so I have 18 years of experience with high energy dogs. I also have experience in taking care of dogs who require extra medical care. I love to walk, hike and go for runs with dogs but most importantly, I can give them love and attention while you are away. I am retired and looking for the opportunity to assist you in the care of your furry friends while you are working and or traveling. I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have a large fences back yard, with no pets of my own. At night I have a mud room for your dog to comfortably sleep in or if needed a pad to lay in a bedroom.

“Quinn house-sat several nights with my 2 cats. The experience with Quinn's high standards of care, as well as providing ample play time, gave me the reassurance that they would not feel abandoned, nor have behavior issues afterward. Many thx & I look forward to our next booking in the near future!”
“Kayla did a great job with our cat while we were gone for Christmas. We appreciated all the pictures and updates, and we know she was well taken care of!”
“Second time having Louise as a sitter. She’s great, my cats may not appreciate her but I do. Being available over thanksgiving is hard as a sitter, I know. But she was and I can’t express how much I appreciate that!!”
“Danielle was so accommodating for our last minute trip; she was communicative, kind, and so reassuring. This was our first time using Rover, or anyone for a pet sitter, and Danielle will continue to be our go-to. :)”
“Kayln was incredible! She is so trustworthy and treats your pets like they are her own. I have two cats that are pretty picky and needy. With no trouble at all she took incredible care of them. Would recommend to anyone that wants to go on vacation and not have to worry about anything!”
“Kaitlyn played with kitties, worked on making friends with the shy ones, and did a great job with everything! I loved getting her updates and photos. Thank you, Kaitlyn!”
“Gabe is hands down the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. I’m very particular and anxious about who watches my cats and he went above and beyond when watching Nina and Jimmy. He has excellent communication skills and always checks in and does everything to make your cats feel comfortable and safe. He is trustworthy, attentive, very kind and an excellent pet sitter. I wish I could give him 100 stars because while I was away I didn’t even have to worry for a second and that says a lot because i hardly ever want to leave my cats because of how anxious I get. Look no further because Gabe is the best and he will treat your pets like they are his own. Thank you Gabe for everything! You are truly the greatest.”
“Super helpful and thorough! Always sends the cutest pictures and updates me on every visit! This is the third time Zoe has dropped in multiple days in a row on my cat and she always takes good care of him and communication is always great!”
“Molly took wonderful care of my cat while I was away for a few days. She sent photos and updates twice daily. My cat was happy and healthy when I returned. Thank you Molly!”
About: Hi, my name is a Nevaeh and I am a nineteen year old who hasn't had one moment in my life where I wasn't surrounded by animals. From being five years old with my grandma's grouchy old cat, to my cousin's place with two dogs and four cats, to being nine and getting my own cat and dog. I am no stranger to big dogs wanting to play like puppies, little dogs with attitudes twice their size and cats being, well, cats. Every time I meet a new animal, I make it a point to introduce myself to them directly. Even sitting down on the ground to be on their level and let them come to me. I want to take care of them, why wouldn't I let them decide they like me? Currently, I work part time Friday through Monday (With Sundays open) and then have Tuesday through Thursdays open. This might change, it might not. I am looking for a full time job. But if I can fit a pet in, I will. As I said, I grew up with several dogs and cats. So I am aware every one is different and requires different care. And much like my banner alludes to, I am a pre-vet student. I'd love to take all the animal experience I can gain. If you have certain requirements for your pet, I can absolutely abide to them.
“Josephine has cast a spell over my cantankerous and difficult cats. She is thorough with the tasks and even has found a way to pet both of them. The she-devil even greets her upon arrival. I don't have to worry when I travel. It is wonderful.”
“I will absolutely be reaching out to Luisa next time I need a pet sitter. They took time to meet in person beforehand, asked thoughtful questions on care, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I highly recommend Luisa as a pet sitter, you can be confident your pet is good hands.”
“Matthew was incredible with my shy cat. Within one day he had my baby acting like his normal self and even meeting Matthew at the door! You won't be disappointed in the quality of care Matthew provides to your fur baby and your home.”
“Emily has taken care of my cats a few times. She is very professional and good with them. I feel at ease while away from my place. It's nice to know I have someone reliable and experienced with taking care of animals.”
“We had Ken for a 2 day house sit for our dog, Flash. In all of our years using Rover, we’ve rarely had a sitter who loves Flash as much (maybe more!) than we do. Ken even made a special late evening visit outside of those that were scheduled just to make sure Flash had a little extra love before bed. We came back to a tidy home and happy pooch. Will definitely have Ken back again!”

“Brianna is AMAZING!!! My sweet little dog has special needs and is in a chair. She asked so many questions to make sure she could keep Frances active and provide the best care for her. I felt so comfortable with Frances in her care. Frances was happy when I picked her up and got excited every day that we pulled up to her house. THANK YOU for your amazing care!!!! Any time I am in town for work I will always work with Brianna :)”
“Could not have a nicer kind hearted person as Danielle to watch our pup! She sent lots of updates and pictures! So happy we got a chance to meet her!”
“Ben and Tuuli are the best! My pup was so stoked every time we pulled up to Ben’s house and I knew that he’d be having a great day with them. He was happy and tired after full days of play and walks. Ben is incredibly easy going and responsible. I never had a worry leaving Woody in Ben’s care and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for an awesome pet sitter!”
“Megan is both responsive and responsible. She seamlessly folded my dog Emerson into her play time with her cute dog Cheddar. She sent several pictures to show that Emerson had a great day! I would definitely use Megan again if I need sitting in the Missoula area. Thanks Megan and Cheddar!”
About: I am a full-time journalist who loves to get out on the weekends! I’m originally from Alaska and spend every opportunity I can getting outside with my 15-year-old border collie. I work from home and stay with the animals all day. We wake up early for potty breaks first thing in the morning. Dogs are allowed on the furniture for ultimate snuggles! I have a fenced yard with plenty of animal friends to keep your pet occupied and comfortable. The house is also large enough that if your animal needs space, we can cordon off an area for them to have peace and quiet.
“Memo saved us by being available at the last minute and then exceeded our expectation for care! Brought our doggo on a walk to tire him out and was truly so loving and caring. Really appreciated all of the pictures. Wouldn’t hesitate to book next time we’re in town ☺️”
“Bryan was awesome. He was available last minute to watch our dog while we were visiting family in Montana. Bryan was very communicative and sent photos of Javi throughout the day. Would 10000% use Bryan and his dog Ron on our next visit to Missoula!”
“Teresa is the best! Finn is always excited to go there and has so much fun. Teresa is really great with Finn and has taken him on walks and to the dog park. She also has a great yard for him to play in. Thanks Teresa!”
“This was our first time using Rover and wow! Chico had a wonderful time, and Tavia kept us updated throughout the day with photos. We are so happy with Tavia and her communication. If we are ever back in the area, we will send our pup there again!”
“Jennifer was great! My puppy loved hanging out with her and the other dogs. Perfect backyard for lots of playtime and fun. Loved all the videos and pictures she sent throughout the day. I will be using her again and would recommend to everyone else!”
“Alyssa was super easy to communicate with. I was glad Maizey got to spend the day running out her energy with Dolly. Maizey is definitely a handful, so it’s always good when she can get out some of that puppy energy.”
About: Hi! I’m Kayla I’ve been involved with animals my entire life! I have experience working in a doggy daycare with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I also have 10 years experience working with and caring for horses. I have owned dogs, cats, and small animals through out my entire life! I currently have a dog and a cat. Both of my pets were formerly strays, currently spoiled. I have experience with dog reactive pets too. I am a work from home accountant with an incredibly flexible schedule. I am also in graduate school at DU. I have a dog and cat, integrating another pet(s) into my schedule will not be a challenge. I currently live in a house with a large sectioned yard. I take my dog on at least 3 walks a day and we are a frequent at the dog park. My cat and dog get along great, but the cat tends to avoid new dogs. I am willing to accommodate any needs a clients dog may have.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and grew up caring for multiple cats while being around dogs and other pets through family and friends. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and cared for. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, cleaning up after, administering basic medications, and providing companionship to pets of different ages and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I adapt my care to their individual needs. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which makes it easy for me to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize clear communication and reliability so pet parents can feel confident their pets are receiving consistent care and attention while they’re away. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household rules. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, fresh water, and a clean environment while respecting their boundaries and personalities. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet and home. I provide updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’ve worked in two doggie daycares, a dog/cat hotel, a dog training facility, as an in-home petsitter for thirteen years for over fifteen families, and as a dog nutrition consultant at a specialty dog food retailer. I’ve also volunteered at shelters and with various rescues around the country, doing everything from kennel cleanup to exercising to transporting to home checks for potential adoptive families. I’ve been riding horses since childhood and am comfortable around livestock, chickens, reptiles, birds, and other exotics. I’ve owned, trained, and cared for dogs from 4lbs to 100+ lbs, from submissive to very dominant/reactive. I can modify my interactions with your dog according to what he or she needs. Available services: -I am a runner and can take your pal on a jog/run, a slow stroll, a hike, or on a pack walk with other dogs. I have a 4yo bull terrier named Tater Tot who can join us on walks, or not, depending on your and your dog’s preference. -I have an SUV and can transport and accompany your dog to appointments or hiking, or from my house to yours/vice versa, etc. Transport fees apply. -At my house, your dog can enjoy comfy furniture, a kiddie pool in the warmer months, a gas stove to curl up in front of, and pretty much constant company. Dates are limited; please inquire. For special cases and dates I may also be able to stay at your place. -Kitties, I haven’t forgotten about you! I’m happy to pop in and feed/medicate/brush/cuddle your feline counterpart(s) if you’re away or unable to; drop-in rates apply. -Have a pet other than a dog or cat? Count me in! Inquire for details. -I am also a freelance photographer and can capture your pet’s personality and milestones, which I have found to be invaluable, especially as they age. I am comfortable around and have experience getting up close and personal with every type of pet. Rates available upon request. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pal(s)!
About: Greetings! I've grown up with adopted dogs and have raised one from a puppy to adulthood. My entire home is open to pups (human beds and furniture), but will adhere to any rules you have in your home. My neighborhood has a lot of kids and other dogs around, as well as large common areas for running around. Can administer medication via treats or orally. Have experience working with dogs on- and off-leash, as well as in packs. Will be able to transport pups in a roomy vehicle all around town and beyond. My daily schedule is pretty flexible, and I'm open to hosting pups in my house or dropping in at the comfort of your pup's own home. Tell me all about your furry friend. Hoping I can meet you and your companion soon! I have a very sporadic work schedule, so I'm home frequently during the weekdays and weekends, and typically am only gone from the home for about 5 hours if I have to be somewhere. I'm able to accommodate frequent walk and bathroom break schedules, have experience taking multiple dogs in my car to hiking trails and other adventure areas. When I'm available to work, I'll frequently be with your pet throughout the day and overnight. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet neighborhood with open grassy areas and safe sidewalks. Will frequently run into kids of all ages in the area, and they're very responsive to dogs of all temperaments. If in your home I'd like to know anything and everything to keep your pet safe and comfortable, if you have cameras indoors or outdoors, as well as anything else about your pet's routine.

“Maddisyn was great with our dogs, we would (and will) book her again! We could tell she’s spent a lot of time with pets, which really made leaving our pups alone so much easier. One of our dogs is aging and needs some more care; she was very attentive to our sweet old man. Great sitter!”
“Maisie was awesome with scout! Managing a lively 1 year old lab and returning her happy and exhausted was just what we needed for scout!! And what scout needed!! And maisie is a good communicator, on time, and kind!! The best kind of dog buddy!!”
“Molly communicates well, and she showed great sensitivity to my (slightly difficult) dog's emotional needs. She was prompt and professional. Definitely would hire again.”
“Daisy loved her trip out with Laurie, she loved how responsive Laurie was to her needs (letting her stop and sniff the roses.) I loved how thorough she was in wanting to get to know Daisy before heading out and how comfortable I feel booking her again.”
“Brianna is such an AMAZING sitter / walker! She has been incredibly reliable, communicative and generous with my pups! She has been available to both overnight with my dogs as well as take them on walks and they have always come home happy and healthy! And they all love her dog too! She takes them on adventures and really cares for them. She is my go-to for trusted pet sitters! I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I primarily work with dogs and cats, but I’m happy to care for other animals too! I’ve grown up around animals and currently have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I take pride in giving every pet the same level of love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m experienced with all life stages—from playful puppies to senior pets—and I’m comfortable working with reactive or selective dogs. I also have experience providing extra care for pets with medical needs and will always follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe and comfortable. I love being outdoors and enjoy hiking, swimming, and exploring trails with dogs. Having lived in the Missoula area for several years, I’m very familiar with local trail systems and great walking spots. I originally started pet sitting in Wisconsin, where I’m from. Whether your pet needs a fun, active walk or a calm, patient companion, I’m here to help. I’d love to meet you and your pet!
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, and currently have a pug and a chiweenie! I love caring for dogs and helping families out. I can do anything a normal pet owner can do! I currently am a full time law school student and teach dance, but I am almost always home or out and about for short stints to be with your fury friend throughout their entire stay to take them out, refill their water, and play with them. I have a gated yard, a nice walking neighborhood, and I am very flexible, just ask! I will always give your babies all the same love as our own dogs! You babies will never be alone for more than 3 hours at a time. I a very flexible and can do anything just need to ask and confirm. I am organized and even though I a busy, we can plan and fit things in that work for you! I love taking my doggies on walks. I don’t care about animals being on any furniture and are allowed anywhere in the house! Your dog(s) will never be left alone more than 3 hours at a time. I am home frequently between my schedule to walk, take the dogs out, and feed them. I let your doggies play with ours and cuddle whenever. I have dog beds and a couch, everything is gated and I will never take a doggie out without a leash.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life. From taking care of cattle on our ranch, to our first family dog when I was 7 years old. More than 30 years later, loving and caring for animals has been a consistent my entire life. I trained my own rescue pup and we shared 9 incredible years together. She went everywhere with me including the gym. I know what it’s like to have a four legged friend be the love of your life. I also volunteered with a local animal rescue and have done some unusual and complex care for unique animals (everything from treating fungus on a Harris’s hawk’s talons to bottle-feeding orphaned porcupines), and most recently helped my own dog through her senior years, including multiple daily medications and giving her a rich full life despite complex needs. That last part matters most for how I work: if your pet needs a strict medication schedule, has anxiety, or requires special handling, I take it seriously and follow instructions exactly. I’m not learning on the job, I’ve done it for a dog I love. I’m a reliable and a clear communicator. You’ll get updates, photos, and honesty, no surprises. Currently offering drop-in visits and walks in Missoula. All sizes and ages welcome, including seniors and pets with medical needs. I’m currently remote and self-employed, which gives me a flexible, predictable schedule I can build client visits around. I’m available weekdays for drop-in visits and walks, and I build my work hours around your pet’s routine rather than the other way around. I check messages regularly and confirm visit times clearly in advance, so you always know exactly when I’ll arrive. I’m a lifelong Missoulian with the kind of reputation where my neighbors have me hold on to their extra house keys. Trust and communication are incredibly important to me. For drop-in visits and walks, I follow your instructions exactly, feeding times, medication schedules, leash routines, and anything specific to your furry companion. I’m experienced administering medication that doesn’t require needles and comfortable with pets who need extra care or a calmer pace. I always double-check doors and gates are secure before leaving, and I send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and cared for.
About: Hi! I'm an animal lover with a remote job, giving me plenty of flexibility and free time to spend with your pet. I've been petsitting and housesitting since 2017, so I'm extremely experienced with many different types of animals, and I'd love to meet yours! I also adopted a dog of my own last year—a sweet and friendly Lab puppy named Cheddar. I grew up with a yellow lab and did most of his training work—I'm happy to teach your dog a new trick or reinforce regular training! I also lived with my sister and her dog for five years after college, frequently caring for her dog and house while she was away. After moving out, I fostered a 3-month-old husky/shepherd mix for a month, which was an amazing experience. Before adopting Cheddar, I spent over two and a half years traveling full-time as a housesitter, caring for pets all over the country. My goal is to create a pet care experience where both the pets and owner are happy and comfortable; I prioritize creating a secure and loving environment for your pets. If you would like to see additional references for my petsitting services, please let me know—I am happy to provide them upon request. For housesitting arrangements, I'm happy to provide the following services in addition to pet care: keeping the house clean and tidy, bringing in mail and packages, watering and maintaining plants, etc. As I work remote, I have plenty of time to care for pets and take them on walks at whatever time of day fits their schedule! I have a house with a HUGE fenced yard, and a very friendly pup who loves to play. I live within walking distance to dog parks and trails. For boarding services in my home, I ask that your dog be friendly with other dogs.
“Bella and Erik are super nice and helpful, and my dog Oliver took to them immediately. I'm so grateful to have found such lovely people to take care of my pooch at our new home.”

About: I've taken care of dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens since I was a kid. My mother worked at an animal shelter so we always had fosters around to care for and socialize. I've also had dogs and cats as family pets for as long as I can remember. I work long shifts as a package delivery driver Sunday-Wednesday so I am only available for walks/pet sitting Thursday-Saturday evening. I love animals though and am super excited to make some new pals! Unfortunately I can't have clients pets stay at my place but while I'm at their owners house/out for a walk the animal will remain leashed and have my full attention.

I feel very comfortable around all kinds of dogs, and I know how to properly work with dogs with different personalities and needs. I work at the dog kennel 3-4 days a week but I am available in the morning, evenings, and overnight if needed. On the days I do not work I am available all day to walk and socialize with pets. I have a trip planned in August, so July and September are more open for me. In my home I have two dogs who are friendly and love company, we also have a big yard and lots of cozy dog beds. I am also available to stay at the pets home since that is usually more comfortable for them. I have house sat many times and dogs are often happier when they are in a familiar space. When I house sit I make sure to maintain a clean and safe environment within the home for the family and for the pets.

I will be a college student and am looking to dog walk or visit between classes during the week. I will work with you on time and duration. For house pet-sitting I’m flexible to when I am free so reach out and ask about my availability! I respect the home I care for the dogs in and respect the rules set for their pets. I’m attentive to the dogs needs during my stay and make them top priority.
About: I've been petsitting for almost a decade! I've worked with all kinds of pets & personalities, and have experience giving oral medication! I'm also pet CPR certified! I'm a current full-time student at the University of Montana! Despite this, I'm available most mornings & evenings, with breaks between classes to give your critters some love. I'm also free most weekends & can give extra attention then! I make sure to leave things as I found them! I will clean up any messes from your pet while I'm there, and make sure the house is kept clean & safe for your pets.
About: I love spending time with dogs, teaching them new tricks and getting familiar with their personality. Also, my family has adopted up to a total of twelve dogs my whole life, so I can confidently say that I'm qualified for this position. Dogs need attention and my attention is focused on making all dogs happy, as they do for us. Ever since I left my parents house, I started to realize the effect that my parents dogs had on me. Dogs have always been a big part of who I am and I can fully relate with dog owners who consider their dogs as another family member. :) This is my attempt at recreating the connection that has dissipated ever since I left home. Woof!
About: Hello! I am currently spending my summer in Moose working for Dornan's ranch. I would love to watch your pets in my free time! I have completed a Veterinary Technician course in which I administered medication and learned the proper care for smaller animals. I am more than happy to travel to your home to watch it/your pet as well. My schedule does vary, but for the most part I am working mornings and would be home around 5pm. I can work around my schedule to fit your needs, so just let me know what is most convenient for you. I am able to create or follow a consistent schedule just like you already have, making sure they have regular meals, play sessions, and quiet time to rest.

“Kenny and Michelle and family were such a pleasure to connect with. From the minute we dropped Hank off to pickup I could tell he was in excellent hands. Their two kids were so kind to Hank and I loved getting photos of him on walks. Hank is an older dog who takes medication for arthritis and I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive and gentle environment for him. I will definitely check their availability next time in Missoula.”
“Megan and Matt took such incredible care of our pup! They welcomed him into their home and treated him like one of their own dogs. They sent pics of their adventures and took Huck on several hikes! He was one happy pup! We will absolutely be asking them to watch him again!”
“Tavia was amazing with my little girl Autumn ! Always sent me pictures/videos with an update on how she was doing! Great communication always ! I so recommend her to take care of your puppy/dog while you’re away !”
“Emma is extraordinary, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Cleo got tons of snuggles, comfortable lounging time, and plenty of exercise. She got long walks on her favorite trails and playtime with Emma’s dog, Brody. Emma is very experienced and confidently handled Cleo’s personality quirks and occasional reactivity. She also sent detailed updates and absolutely gorgeous photos. I would trust her with Cleo again in a heartbeat.”
“Andrea and her pup, Ruger, came through when we had an unexpected trip come up. She took care of our dog-girl with no issues at all. Would definitely use her again!”
“Jen is an amazing dog sitter. Our 3.5 year old mixed breed Abby has a blast and is so well cared for at Jen's house. Abby loves playing with Jen's dog as well as Jen and we feel very comfortable leaving her with Jen when we head out of town.”
“Kerry and her family are amazing! They watched our dogs for a long weekend and both dogs were so relaxed and chill when they came home. It was clear that their needs were well taken care of and that they got a lot of love while they were at Kerry's place. Can't ask for anything more than that. Kerry also kept us highly entertained with a bunch of sweet and goofy pics. Which also meant we had no worries.”
“Brianna is the best dog sitter .. we came with a last minute plan to travel to Montana .. Not only Brianna accommodated our last minute boarding request our dog who usually is hesitant in the new surrounding was comfortable and at ease in first 5 minutes.. Brianna was very prompt about sending multiple pictures which was an additional peace of mind .. Totally Recommend her .. had the best experience”
“Barbara took great care of our 1-year-old Black and Tan Coonhound while we were visiting Glacier National Park for a few days. She was extremely responsive through the booking process and made it very easy for us! Our pup would have loved to stay even longer and play with her Golden Retriever. We will certainly book her again next time we are in the area!”
“Nicole was so amazing! She took such good care of our 2 pups and sent us regular updates. We have one high energy dog and one who has some health issues that limits her amount of exercise and Nicole worked with both of them to make sure they got what they needed! We will definitely be using her again”
“We have never had a anything but great experiences with Rover but Teresa was the absolute BEST! Gracie, who is pretty high strung and doesn’t take to just anyone, immediately felt comfortable with her. Teresa’s easy manner and obvious love of dogs made leaving Gracie with her so comforting! She took her swimming (not once but twice!) and sent photos throughout her stay. I highly recommend Teresa. I’d give her six stars if I could.”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
“Gabrielle took such good care of our dog and new puppy! She went on walks down by the river, played with the dogs, and sent us pictures throughout the day so we could see how they were doing. We definitely trust Gabrielle and highly recommend her. She is just wonderful. Thank you for everything you did to make our dogs happy. Our oldest dog, Tucker, didn't want to leave Gabrielle's house when we came to pick up the dogs after our trip. A true testament to how well they were treated. Thank you!”
“Our older dog was well taken care of by Ellen. We received cute updates and quick communication. Would be happy to have her look after our Sidney again and Sidney would be happy to see her!”
“Tlhis was my first time leaving my Aussie Steel with a dog sitter. He's with me almost 24/7 because of my job. I'm sure I had a much harder time than he did! Ben told me about some of his regulars that he watches, and that they would be coming when Steel wad there. From the videos that Ben sent to me and the updates, I could see Steel was in good company and doing great!! He got lots of outside time, ate well and was completely worn out from a hike when I picked him up! :) I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Ben”
“Leah treated my dog Boo like a king. I couldn't have been happier about his stay with her, and neither could Boo. Leah's a great communicator-I received daily feedback of what they were doing, where they went, and reports on his behavior, how he got along with her dogs, and pictures(!). She has 2 dogs that were super playful and sweet with Boo. Leah was very careful to introduce our dogs first, which clued me in to how responsible and caring she is. While Boo was there, not only did he get to play in her yard and cuddle on the couch with her (um, he's 65 lbs and growing), she also took him on outings-including the dog island! I would definitely use Leah again and felt super comfortable about her taking care of my buddy. Highly recommended. Thank you Leah-from both of us! You're awesome!”
“Annika is the most kind and compassionate Rover we’ve interacted with. We were in a pinch with a previous sitter falling through and she willingly helped us out last minute. She was also an amazing communicator, shared regular updates, and made us feel at ease living our pup with her. Annika has a very calming presence and our firework-anxious pup did very well with her over July 4th weekend. Highly recommend and am already looking for another time to book her.”
About: I have previously owned Labradoodles so I have 18 years of experience with high energy dogs. I also have experience in taking care of dogs who require extra medical care. I love to walk, hike and go for runs with dogs but most importantly, I can give them love and attention while you are away. I am retired and looking for the opportunity to assist you in the care of your furry friends while you are working and or traveling. I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have a large fences back yard, with no pets of my own. At night I have a mud room for your dog to comfortably sleep in or if needed a pad to lay in a bedroom.
“We are so grateful for Nickolas! He takes wonderful care of our Frenchie Cleo — she is always so excited to see him and his sweet dog, Margie. We love the photo updates Nickolas sends and it helps when we are away to see how much fun our girl is having. I would absolutely recommend Nickolas as a dog sitter — we are so lucky to have been connected!”
“Fantastic family to work with. So gentle with my Emma! Will rebook. They have a beautiful, serene setting. So gentle with my obstinate dog. Worked with me on my times to drop off and pick up.”
