About: I grew up with dogs! I love them! I know it can be a struggle to find someone to care for them when you need it. Let me help. We have 4 kids, and a lot of fun. My kids are soft on dogs and love a new friend. We will let your precious cargo do what they need: sleep, play, bark, run, or eat. Whatever. They will be taken care of. We have a fenced yard! I don’t allow dogs on my furniture but I have soft pilllow beds. Please bring your dogs own food and leash and whatever else they need! I can give medication if needed. Please indicate if your dog isn’t kid/dog friendly. I can accommodate, I just need to know. Please arrive on time. I make it a point to be ready when you request a service. If you ask to change a time, that is fine. However, if you are 30 min or more late, I will ask to cancel or charge a late fee. This applies to pickup ☺️ If you are more than 30 min late to a an arranged pickup, I will charge a fee. Thank you! I get to stay home with my kids, but that doesn’t mean I don’t work hard to keep the ship sailing. I am busy on weekends so book me before a hiking trail does! I provide a comfortable spot for dogs inside and outside. I feed twice daily (or as needed) and water constantly. I let dogs outside for some sunshine and exercise when it’s not super hot outside. We talk kindly and treat animals with respect.

About: I have had a variety of animals my whole life! I absolutely love being around animals and spending time with them. I have taken care of dogs of all ages, all the way from newborn to seniors! I am available on weekdays only. I do work a breakfast shift (5am-11am) Wednesday to Saturday. However, I am available the rest of the day! I will have plenty of time to tend to your animals and take care of their needs. I have a very large unfenced yard that would be great for leashed activities like walking and going potty. I also have a fenced area that’s perfect for some unleashed outdoor time. I would keep any pets inside most of the time to ensure safety while I am with them. I do have a crate that I could keep your pet in while I am at work (if your baby is crate trained). All animals are allowed to roam the house and sleep in the bed if that’s allowed at home!

About: early years, my family were training Morgans for the Kentucky Derby. It had been an exhilarating journey, one that beautifully intertwined skill, patience, and a profound bond with these majestic horses. Each horse is unique, deserving of personalized training that not only harnesses their incredible speed and agility but also fosters a deep connection between horse and trainer. As l've grown, my focus has shifted from merely training to cherishing those heartfelt connections, as they truly enrich my life. Alongside my passion for equine training, I find immense joy in the companionship of dogs and cats, nurturing their spirits It’s all I do - besides writing. I chose to step Away from The chaos of the world to care for my own well being by taking care of animals. With respect, kindness and love as I would expect in my own home and with my own pets. Pets bring joy and peace to my life.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 3 years now. I can do various things including walking and bathing almost any dog. Taking care of dogs is my job and I love it! My work schedule is pretty flexible so I am able to do walks/drop ins pretty frequently throughout any day of the week. My best times would be before 12 and after 7 but I can typically do times in between as well with enough notice I would care for your pet in any way necessary by following any instructions you can give me. With my experience, I know how to keep dogs safe and happy!

About: I have two small dogs who are my world. I love all types of pets, but can make room in my schedule and heart to take care of your dogs and cats. I will board dogs, but can only stop in and check on your cats. I am currently retired and only work some part-time jobs. I am pretty flexible and will work with families to take care of your precious pets. I have a large farm and home and will crate your dogs as needed. They will love the open space for walks and play.

Brittney and Steve are GREAT! I have an 11-week old GoldenDoodle puppy with lots of energy and they walk him, play with him, and he's always so excited to see them. I highly recommend Brittney if you want to make sure your pups are well taken care of (like you'd care for them).

Nettie was very responsive throughout the booking process and routinely kept us updated on Toby. We loved the pictures that she'd send daily. Toby seemed to really enjoy having her come and visit. Toby has some past medical issues and this was our first time using Rover so we were worried but that quickly went away the first day that she visited him.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I have been watching dogs of every kind and age, since I was twelve. My skills go beyond just walking and feeding, I have learned to take care of geriatric dogs and give shots to a diabetic dog. Dogs and adventures are my passion so it only seems fitting to put them together! I go to school at Montana tech so I am at school in the morning. I work part time the rest of the week and on the weekends which leaves the rest of the day to fill with taking care of the pups! I have two friendly dogs that would love to play with your pup! I live in a nice house in a neighborhood in the flats, so I am happy to take care of your furry friends at your house or they can come to mine. My partner loves when my dogs stay at his house so I am also willing to leave my pups wherever is comfortable for you, while hanging out with your dog.

About: With a lifetime of experience around animals - growing up on a farm and working in a vet's office - I bring both a wealth of knowledge and gentle touch to every pet I meet. I'm especially experienced with senior pet care, have a knack for puppy training, and even have a special place in my heart for unique breeds - have always had a Sphynx cat at home. Above all, I'm reliable, warm, and absolutely dedicated to making sure your furry (or furless!) friends feel safe and loved in their own home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I structure my schedule around providing dedicated, reliable time for each pet I look after. While I'm currently focusing on building my pet care services, I plan my availability thoughtfully to make sure every client gets the attention they need. In every client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for their pets. I take the time to understand each pet's routine and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and at ease while in my care. My approach is always about building trust - both with the pets and their owners - so that everyone feels confident and comfortable throughout the entire pet care experience.

About: I have been a dog lover all of my life and know how important their care is. Dogs are just part of the family! I love getting to know each dogs personality and figure go above and beyond to consider the needs of a variety of pups. I have a flexible schedule allowing me to provide constant care for your pup. I am interested in meeting and caring for all types of dogs, big/small, puppy or seniors! I can be as flexible as possible and will be honest about your pup’s care. I will treat your fur-babes like part of the family. We have a fenced in yard and If your pup is more comfortable as part of the pack, they are invited in to have the run of the house with our family dogs. We love dogs and will try to accommodate any special requests. Available to check in on your pups every 4 hours (m-f) and spend weekends all day with your dogs! I can check in with your pups every 3-4 hours during the day and be there to stay after 4 pm. I prioritize feeding and potty schedules to make sure there are little to no changes in their routines. I care for your pets like they are my own. Figuring out they’re behaviors and personalities is important to me. Some dogs need lots of love and attention and others like their space, either way they’ll be in great hands.

Miranda was great! Will definitely rebook again. My pups loved her. I love that she gave each one lots of attention and kept me in the loop on their well being. Miranda went above and beyond when I came home and saw my floors were mopped and vacuumed.
