Personalized care for your dog or cat - Story
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Story
About: Growing up with animals has taught me the importance of their care and well being. They are all so unique, why we love them so! I work for myself in Bozeman, therefore I have a very flexible schedule. I am available seven days a week, all time of the day! I have a very large yard right on the trails. We are close to streams for swimming and Peet’s hill for socializing, we stay entertained!
“The dogs had another great stay with Charles! They always come home so relaxed and not wound up. I just feel they are very well taken care of at his house. We will definitely be back again! We can rest easy knowing they are with him.”
“Candice was absolutely wonderful with my chihuahua! She was patient, understanding, and gave him the special care he needed. I really appreciated her upbeat and positive demeanor, as well as the fact that she followed all of my instructions and respected his need for space. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Candice to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter. I would definitely use her help in the future!”
“Josephine was great! From drop off to pick up she allowed me to go out of town knowing my pup was in good hands! Will definitely book again and highly recommend you do the same!”
“Naomi and her cat duchess were so good to my senior dog Cody. He was very happy and totally at ease when I went to pick him up. This was a last minute booking and Naomi was great about it. Would highly recommend her.”
“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.”
“I highly recommend Christa & Marek. They have a great house, a friendly dog and nice back yard. They go above and beyond and communicate very well. I had a great experience with them and my dog did too!”
“Yuka can be a bit shy and distrusting of strangers, but she seemed to settle in with Jennifer easily and looked like she was genuinely enjoying her stay in all the photos we received. Jennifer did a great job!”
“Emma was an amazing sitter for my pup, Crouton! I had to go out of town last minute for a few days and Emma was thankfully available. Crouton got along really well with her pup, Nova. I got ample updates and pictures. Crouton seemed so happy during her stay, I would definitely rebook with Emma again!”
“Gary was a great dog sitter for our active German Shorthair Pointer!!! He made sure Ruger was exercised every day and even allowed him to sleep in the house while there were fireworks being lit in the neighborhood!! The kennels were immaculate and Gary kept us updated on how Ruger was doing and even sent some photos and video. We were very pleased with our experience leaving our dog in Gary’s care. Thanks again 😊🐕🦺”
“Erika was great again! She's very professional and flexible with pick up/drop off. Her yard has great space for dogs, and she has no problem managing serveral dogs there at once. My dog Winnie has tons of fun with her! I really appreciated a video she sent from the dog bus with each dog looking comfortable and seat belted into their own bus bench.”
“Allie was super responsive, friendly and did a meet and great. Coco loved being with her dogs and immediately ran in to her yard and felt right at home. She went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Thank you Allie!”
About: I have had high energy dogs mostly heelers and love to take them outside for adventures. It helps me bond with them and teach them to be social. I currently work evenings and bring my our dog out for walks all the time during the day. I love taking him to the dog park and hiking and have room to bring others with me. I mostly take my dog to the dog park and leash him when I take him hiking. I would be able to bring another dog with us when we adventure.
“Cassie was amazing! She took great care of Harley. She kept me informed of how Harley was doing and also sent photos. Harley would love to stay with her again in the future. Thank you again Cassie!”

“Paul took excellent care of my kitten Clover while we were away. Clover has a wild disposition, and so is choosy about who she likes, but Paul won her over. He took lots of pictures and took the time to make her comfortable. Thank you!”
“Katy was awesome! She took excellent care of my cats and was very accommodating of a couple of extra requests that I had. She sent lots of photos and detailed updates while I was gone and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her care.”
“August is not friendly to strangers but Andrew did his best to win her over. He was very communicative and I appreciate his efforts with her. Will ask for his help again in the future for sure.”
“Leslie was easy to coordinate with and kind to our kitties! They were in great shape when we returned from our trip. She seems to enjoy working with animals and was very responsive.”
“Kate has been so awesome with my dog, Diesel! She went above and beyond to care for him like her own. Constantly kept me in the loop with pictures and messages. I couldn’t recommend Kate enough, I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Jenna was a wonderful sitter for our cats. She made sure to look for our shy cat to make sure he was ok which was very appreciated! She sent us a lot of picture updates and was thorough in her communication. Our cats seemed happy to have her company. Thank you Jenna!!”
“Olivia took fantastic care of our cat Milton! He is older and usually very shy around strangers, but she was able to make friends with him over the course of our time away and he came out for scritches and treats!💖”
“Taylor is an awesome Rover! He is super responsive, reliable, and was great with my kitties. He called one day to ask if it was okay if he came a couple hours off schedule and was available to do an extra day when my flight plans changed. Would highly recommend and am definitely going to book again!”
“Toni compassionately cared for our much-loved senior cat Sylvie, in a difficult situation where we were states away in the midst of family medical situations. I am very grateful for the grace Toni exhibited, and the affection she extended to Sylvie on our behalf, when Sylvie took a turn for the worse and we painfully could not be there. **Highly recommended.**”
“Nina was easy to work with and very accommodating! My furbabies loved her and always looked forward to her visits. If you get the chance, please utilize Nina’s services. You won’t be disappointed!”
“Lucy is the absolute BEST. You can tell she really loves all animals, and treats yours just like her own. She watched my cat for 5 days straight, two visits a day. Each visit she made she provided such detailed notes about what she and my cat did while they hung out which was much appreciated. She also takes awesome pictures and sends them over each visit. I will use Lucy every time in the future!”
“Alanna is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She has watched my special needs cat, Nubs, several times and has been consistently amazing. Nubs requires medication, and Alanna has no issues pilling her—she handles it confidently and calmly, which gives me so much peace of mind. Her communication is excellent; she keeps me updated and is always responsive. Most importantly, it’s clear how much she genuinely cares for Nubs. She gives her so much love and attention, and I always feel completely assured knowing Nubs is in such capable, compassionate hands when I’m away.”
“Carol was very gracious and offered to meet our cats even before we confirmed the booking. She took her time to let them be comfortable and I could see they were well-taken care of when I came home from my trip. She even cleaned their food bowls which I appreciated so much!”
About: I will give your pets all the love and attention they need. I Currently don’t have any pets so yours will be my top priority. Currently a full time college student so I have pretty flexible hours. I can always check in on pets in between classes or in my free time. Willing to do whatever is necessary. If you have any specific requirements for your pets just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve sat for a variety of sweet dogs and cats. From elder cats with dietary issues, shy cats who prefer to be left alone, puppies who adore attention, and chill grown up dogs who just like to hang out. I work full time from 8-5 on the weekdays so unfortunately I can’t be there full time those days. However I do have a flexible lunch break and can make sure a dog or cat is fed/walked within a four hour period. I follow the specific instructions given in terms of how often they are fed, given water, treats, their exercise/play routine. And give them lots of pets!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Story
“Tucker had a great time this week hanging out with Sarah and her family as well as her dog Jo Jo! Tucker and Jo Jo became fast friends and were such a great fit, playing all day. I highly recommend Sarah and look forward to reaching out again soon.”
“I highly recommend Josephine!! Josephine watched my dog Maude and was communicative, reliable and took great care of Maude. Maude is often very shy but she immediately warmed to Josephine and her dog Dexter. During her stay with Josephine I got frequent updates of Maude and Dexter on walks and hanging out on the couch and I could tell Maude felt right at home.”
“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!”
“We had a wonderful experience tonight. Marina took great care of Scout and made everything easy for us. Communication was excellent, updates were timely, and Scout was clearly relaxed and happy when she returned. We really appreciated the attention to detail and the kindness shown to our pup. Highly recommend.”
“Nicole was great and super flexible as we were visiting Bozeman for the week. Our pup loved hanging with her and came home exhausted each night. She sent pictures and could tell he was having the best time. I def would recommend leaving your dog with Nicole as she was great!”
“We were very lucky to find Elizabeth. We had a day trip planned and had to leave Marcie with someone. Elizabeth responded very quickly to our request and was very flexible. Marcie had the best time and didn’t want to leave :) We highly recommend Elizabeth!”
“Gina was wonderful with our anxious pup. We only needed someone for a few hours while we visited a museum and Gina was perfect. She replied to my inquiry immediately and I feel like our dog was well cared for. Thank you, Gina!”
“Allie was great! She was easy to communicate with and flexible to my change in pick up time. As this was my first Rover experience, I would have liked a few updates and pics from the day to know what Rosie was up to.”
“Luna loved her time with Marina. She was treated to play time, walks, new toys, and cuddles on the couch. Luna was immediately at ease with Marina, as were we. Thank you, Marina, for taking such good care of our sweet girl.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and understand how special and important they are! I have experience training, walking and bathing dogs of all sizes. I also have experience caring for and administering medications for senior dogs. I would love to keep your furry family member company while you’re away! I have schedule flexibility as a mental health therapist and a lot of extra time as the summer months are typically slower. We can discuss longer term care as well since I can design my own schedule and will have weekend availability in the winter months. I love being active! I can easily crate your dog if needed and will never let the dog leave the house without a leash. I will keep pet care within parameters that you’re comfortable with and can spend as much time with your pet as you would like.
“Bonnie took wonderful care of our dog Penny! This was our first experience with Rover, and we were a bit anxious about it overall. Bonnie kept us up to date with how Penny was doing and even sent photos to let us know how she was doing. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to take care of our pup!”
“Abby was excellent with our Pepper. She gave him very good care and attention. He must have had a good time with her since he is tired out now , and quite quiet which for him means he is tired out instead of wired. She sent a picture of him as well as short reports during his time with her.”
About: Hello! I live in Bozeman, Montana but cover anywhere within 100 miles for sittings! I've had pets for most of my life. I do not have one now, because I take care of so many sweet pups. I have 100+ hours of volunteer work at animal shelters. I understand how they act, react, and each pet has its own personality! I do not mind pit bulls or any kind of dog/animal as long as everything is done safely. I have time day and night to walk, care, and really give the pets the love they deserve. That’s what I’m here for. Thank you! Anytime, my work schedule is very flexible. Available 24/7 day and night any animal any time. I will give your pet all the attention they need. I have a small snow removal business. Unless it is snowing, this is my primary job/focus. I like to give your pets as much of my time as possible! I care for your pets based on your expectations. I will only accept one job at a time, so I don't have to split my attention. I can't be 2 places at once!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Story
“Paul is a great dog walker. My two big pups love their walks with Paul and get so excited when he comes to pick them up. Paul is punctual and reliable and a super nice person who I totally can trust with my two best furry friends.”
“Taylor took great care of Bailey while I was away! He took her on nice long walks and sent a bunch of updates and pictures. She was immediately comfortable with him which says a lot!”
About: I've been trusted with peoples animals since I was 10 years old, and have always had a passion for caregiving. With 4 years of veterinary experience and a bachelor’s in Animal Science, I provide attentive, knowledgeable care for pets of all ages. I’m comfortable recognizing health concerns, providing individualized care, supporting senior pets, and helping shy or anxious animals feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely love getting to know your pet’s unique personality and routine. I understand that communication regarding their wellbeing is paramount during your absence so regular updates will always be provided. I have considerable experience caring for pets with chronic conditions and special needs including blindness, deafness, amputees, anxiety, allergies, IBD, IVDD, hip dysplasia, arthritis, CHF, cancer, CKD, Diabetes, and thyroid disorders. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your baby in the hands of anyone else, so it will be my mission to make your experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible. I am currently unemployed, so I have a very flexible schedule. My preferred work days would range Monday-Thursday. Weekends and holidays may be available upon request. I consider myself to be a reliable, ethical, and trustworthy caregiver. My belief is that my character is who I am when no one is watching. Therefore, every pet and/or their home that I take care of will be treated with dignity and respect. I will strictly adhere to feeding, medication, and exercise routines. And most importantly, I will love on and comfort your baby like they were my own.
“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: 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 am a current senior at Montana State and work at the hospital part-time. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for about 5 years now and love animals. While most my experience is with dog and puppies, I am open to cat sitting as well. I am available for house sitting, walks, or even drop-in visits. I would love to chat more so please reach out if you are interested in having me care for your animals! Pet care is a part-time job for me, as I am also a college student and work part-time at the hospital. I make my own work schedule, so if you reach out to me in advance I can make more availability if necessary for your pets. I am available evenings and weekends! I care for pets in my client's home, as my residence does not allow animals. I am available for overnight care, drop-in visits, and daily outings. Reach out to me if you are interested in learning more about my services!
About: I grew up on a small farm in Texas surrounded by animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, chickens, goats, pigs, and cattle. From a young age, I was responsible for helping care for animals and spent years showing livestock at my county fair. Those experiences taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and attentive care. Whether your pet has four legs, feathers, or hooves, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and provide the best care possible while you’re away. I currently work full-time in Bozeman Monday through Friday, but my schedule is very flexible. I’m available for morning, lunch-time, and evening visits and can easily work pet care into my daily routine. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a walk, feeding, medication, or some extra attention throughout the day, I’m committed to providing reliable and consistent care. While I cannot accommodate pets in my home, I am happy to care for your pets in theirs. I will treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect and care. Let me know your expectations, and I’ll do my best to meet or exceed them. If your pet enjoys walks, exercise, or outdoor adventures, I’d be happy to help! I love staying active and can also provide transportation in my vehicle if needed for approved activities, walks, or outings.
“Daria was amazing! Our dogs loved her and she took extra care to make sure they both got included in chuck it (one is a bit of a ball hog). She walked and played with them daily, I would definitely use her again!”
About: I love working with all kinds of different pets! I have a lot of experience with senior animals, as well as kittens/puppies and everything inbetween! My pets are my whole world! I am constantly tending to them and finding ways to improve their lives and give them the absolute best care possible! My cats are kept indoors, but occasionally go on leashed walks around the neighborhood. My dog has an underground fence so she can run around as much as she wants!
About: I have had high energy dogs mostly heelers and love to take them outside for adventures. It helps me bond with them and teach them to be social. I currently work evenings and bring my our dog out for walks all the time during the day. I love taking him to the dog park and hiking and have room to bring others with me.

About: Hi all! I am originally from Bozeman and grew up with dogs- I enjoy going for walks and going to dog parks as well as just cuddling on the couch! I am a full time employee at the hospital and can easily do drop in walks or visits and will only accept jobs where I can meet the level of care your pet needs. I treat pets like a part of my family- since I am a renter I am unable to board animals at my house but would follow any guidelines set up by a client to make their pet feel like they are with family.
About: I grew up my whole life with dogs and trained them as puppies. I like to hike and run with my high intensity dogs, and am good at tiring them out while having a blast! I am currently a student at MSU’s flight school during the school year. But over the summer, I’ve been taking care of my friends and family’s dogs when needed. Since I’m not in school right now, and am only doing flight lessons, I have a pretty open schedule and am excited to meet your dogs! How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client's home? This will vary depending on which service you offer. Since I am in school right now and don’t have my own place, I don’t offer boarding. However, for house sitting and dog walking, I would love to do lots of fun outdoor activities with your dogs, varying on your dogs energy level.
