“Trena was amazing! She is great at sending pictures and keeping us updated. Our house looked like she had never even been here when she left. It was so nice not having to worry at all about our dog while we were on a trip. Thanks so much Trena!”
“Savannah is great- reliable, communicative, and friendly. While gone for the weekend she made sure to not only check on my two cats, but love on them and play with them too. My favorite part was the update pictures she would send, as well as feedback on how my cats were doing (eating, energy, litter activity, etc.) and having the veterinary background that Savannah does, my babies were in great hands. Consider Savannah for your booking and you won’t be disappointed!”
“Frenchie stayed with our two pups for a week. She was fantastic. Very responsive with her communication and attentive to our dogs. We'll definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, and during that time I’ve become the go‑to sitter for friends and family. Whether it’s walks, drop‑in visits, overnight stays, or keeping pups comfortable in their own home, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m big on connection — head scratches, cuddles, and calm reassurance for shy pups, plus plenty of ways to burn off energy for the more playful ones. That might look like throwing a ball, going for a walk, or playing chase around the yard until those happy tail wags kick in. Your dog’s routine, comfort, and happiness come first. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. You can trust that while you’re away, your pup will be cared for with patience, affection, and attention to detail. I work from remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your dog throughout the day. I can provide potty break in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening and head scratches, playtime, and lots of love through out the day. This schedule is ideal for house sitting in your home where your pup gets consistent attention and a calm, reliable routine. I can also offer drop‑in visits in the morning and afternoon if you prefer your dog to stay in their own space. I offer gentle, structured walks to help your dog burn energy, stay mentally stimulated, and feel confident throughout the day. Whether it’s a quick morning walk or an afternoon outing, I make sure every walk is safe, calm, and tailored to your pup’s pace and personality. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a steady, reliable environment where your dog feels secure, understood, and genuinely loved. Because I work remotely, your pup benefits from consistent presence and attention. I maintain their routine, watch for stress signals, and ensure they get the right balance of potty breaks, affection, and play. Whether I’m staying in your home or stopping by for drop‑ins, you can trust that your dog is in patient, attentive, and responsible hands.
“Val was a wonderful match for our puppy! She made sure he was well taken care of while we were away. He got lots of play time, snuggles and walks! Also, I received updates with photos and useful feedback! Moose would love to have her back!”
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.

About: I have experienced training and raising my childhood dog, an English Mastiff, up until she passed among sitting other dogs of many ages.

I also have firsthand experience caring for dogs with chronic health conditions, dietary restrictions, and sensitive digestive systems. Whether your dog needs an adventurous walk, extra patience, or individualized attention, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being.

About: I grew up with a golden retriever, and later a yellow labrador who was my best canine friend throughout my childhood and teenage years. I helped my family raise all our dogs, including another yellow lab and a Bernese lab mix. I have cared for many neighbors and friends dogs, and am able to handle a wide range of personalities. I am confident handling any size dog on a leash and will work with your dogs specific needs, including any special conditions. I am comfortable administering medication if necessary. I take care of other dogs the same way I take care of my own, with lots of love and attention. It makes me happy to see dogs smile and I love to be the reason behind that smile! I am currently in grad school, so while busy, my schedule is very flexible and I'm able to care for dogs any day of the week, any time of the day. In my home, any pets I care for will be spending time with my own dog, Skye. Outside of my home, I'm able to provide pet care with or without the addition of my dog Skye based on client preferences.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I’ve walked dogs for years and have cared for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. As a former dog grooming assistant, I’ve worked hands-on with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments.

“Sonna did a great job caring for our dog! She was prompt about showing up, trustworthy and took the time to send us a few photos while on our trip.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred West Gallatin walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in West Gallatin maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Gallatin choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters 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 sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Gallatin. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
