House Sitting Batavia

About: I'm 18 years old but I've taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life, cats, dogs, lizards, you name it! I've also had 6 dogs and 1 cat myself, which have all grown up and old in a happy and fun environment! I do not live in a neighborhood, so i have a large fenced yard along with about 4 acres of field to play in, along with a lake near me for hot summer days. Given all of the pets i've taken care of, I have great experience in dogs and cats of all ages, puppies, senior dogs, etc. I am currently a senior in high school at Glacier, however I only have one class that is completely online, so i am home all day everyday! Along with school i work a part-time nanny job in the AM Mondays and Thursdays, but it is super flexible so i can meet your needs. As you can see i have a very open schedule that is easy to work with, and i am home most of my days which is perfect to watch your animals. I'm using my love for animals as a little source of extra income! I have a large fenced and protected yard with an easily accessible dog door on both the top and bottom floor of my home. I do have two of my own fur babies, but they are trained and are used to being around all different types of dogs. However, if your dog/ cat is not good with other dogs and cats I am able to keep them separated by the floors in my house, so that would be no problem.

“Kalia is great! She took great care of our pets and home during our travels, and was reliable and trustworthy. Our dogs love her dearly, and we'll definitely book with her again in the future when we travel.”

“Karla is amazing! I am so thankful we found someone we can trust to stay at our home and watch our dog when we travel. She sends picture updates, is great with communication, spoils our girl while we are gone, and keeps our home fresh for when we return! Highly recommend her 😊”

“Elizabeth took great care of our 2 year old dog, Rory. She was completely reliable, sent lots of pictures, and we could tell he was well loved when we returned home. She left our house very clean and communicated well with lots of pictures while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”

“Madison was wonderful with our golden retriever! She was super communicative and transparent with her work while watching our dog, which was great! She sent us fun photo updates and Huckleberry looked like she was having a blast. The house was also clean and tidy when we came back! Thanks, Madison!”

About: Hello! My name is Natalie. I am an LVT licensed in Montana, with over 10 years of pet care and animal healthcare experience. I worked as a dog handler in several different kennels before obtaining my degree in Veterinary Technology from Bellingham Technical College, receiving mentorship in a variety of animal hospitals. I now work in veterinary physical rehabilitation and do Rover in my free time! I have experience caring for dogs, cats, pocket pets, and exotics, including those with special needs. I am more than happy to provide your pet with day-to-day specialized care such as administering medications, mobility assistance, or providing care to senior pets who need an extra bit of love. I personally have a cat who is special needs - she is deaf, and has both intestinal lymphoma and cerebellar hypoplasia - so I know it can sometimes be a challenge to find proper care for pets like her! Rest assured that I will provide your babies with the upmost care. I live in Kalispell, and I provide service to Kalispell, Whitefish, Columbia Falls, and surrounding areas. If I appear just out of range, just ask! I may be able to travel to your location for an additional fee depending on the dates. Thank you for reading, I hope that I can meet your sweet furbabies soon! ♡ I work full-time in a veterinary practice, and while I do need to be home for a few hours a day to take care of my kitties, I am able to do overnights and weekends for clients! Walks: I will use leashes, collars and harnesses that are provided by the client. Walks can take place in client's neighborhood, or on surrounding trails if preferred. Cat owners: I have a spare small cat harness if your feline friend enjoys walks! Pet Sitting: Pet sitting will take place at client's home. I will be fully respectful of your house and home, following your pet sitting instructions completely.

“Jessica is fantastic. She is caring towards our animals and I had full trust that everything would go as planned. Communication was great and I would recommend without hesitation. We will definitely have her back very soon!”

Chris R.

“Sherri went above and beyond for our fur babies while we were away. It’s truly hard for us to feel at ease when leaving them because they are like our kids, but we felt so comfortable with Sherri. She sent more updates and photos in the first evening than most sitters have sent us for whole trips! We are already planning to book Sherri again and would highly recommend her.”

Lauren B.

“Natashia did a good job with the "gang" while I was traveling. Felt like they all meshed. Even my cats came out to say hello the first day she was there. Great communication, very nice and easy to work with. Would definitely book again.”

Heather S.

“The pups seemed to be happy and well cared for upon my return. John arrived and departed timely, leaving the house and surroundings in good shape. Thank you John.”

Paulette W.

“Riley responded right away to my request to sit in our home with our puppy. He has separation anxiety and she knew how to handle him. She stopped by a couple of days ahead to learn our routine. She was very responsive and communicated when she would arrive before visiting. We would use Riley again as our sitter”

Charlene D.

“Samantha's great. We're so glad we found her ❤️”

Robin B.

“This is now the 2nd time Eileen has watched our dogs and each time she's gone above and beyond of her duties (ie pulling the batteries to a sounding fire alarm, washing bed sheets and bringing in the delivered dog food) all of which certainly weren't asked for but she had no problems doing. Highly highly recommend and will be booking her again as long as she wants to return :)”

About: I am an eternal animal lover. Growing up with numerous animals around, I cherish their company and find our mutually beneficial relationships necessary. I have volunteered at Humane Societies, local rescues, professional pet sitting business, daycare, boarding facility and always been a sitter for family/friends/strangers, etc. Well-versed in walks, runs, feeding, bathrooms breaks, overnights, giving medicine, and of course lots of love and attention. I am available and free. I wake up early and am not pursuing a career right now, so plenty of time to dedicate to your beloved furry family. I am empathetic towards animals' emotions and I understand their needs naturally. I communicate well with photo and video updates and people find me a joy to work with. I treat every animal like they are my own family and will always make sure they have the care they want and need. My schedule is being created here and I just moved back. My jobs are always part time and allow me lots of freedom to prioritize what I enjoy (animals and nature). I am very fluid and open and put free time first. Well of course it depends on what is needed for each individual. To be general, I make sure that I am attentive to details in your animals' behavior, changes in their environment to make sure there isn't any problems popping up. Checking their stool, food/water intake, etc. I treat them like they're my friend. I am sensitive to their needs and that usually looks like a welcoming and loving attitude. I treat your home and furry family with love.

About: I’m currently available part-time on weekday evenings, which gives me plenty of time to spend playing and caring for your pups! I’ve had over eighteen years of experience with all aspects of dog care. From helping raise puppies to caring for my own dogs since I was just three years old, my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. Many people call me a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to respond to me with the same trust and comfort they show their own owners. My experience ranges from caring for healthy, energetic pups to providing specialized care for dogs with medical conditions—even hospice care for one of my beloved dogs. I currently share my life with three dogs, Tipsí, Uisce and our newest addition Juno. You’ll find their information and photos below, along with pictures of other dogs I’ve been fortunate enough to help care for through friends and family. I’m familiar with a wide variety of breeds, including larger ones such as German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Mastiffs. I take pride in giving every dog the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. While I’m unable to host dogs at my own residence, I’m more than happy to come to you—or take your dog out for walks, playtime, or adventures elsewhere. My top priority is always following what makes you and your dog most comfortable. I’m currently working full-time, but am normally available with notice given (preferably two weeks in advance) depending on the time of day and also work schedule that week. I trust that the owner gives me all of the information needed to know about said dog, I then use the information as well as knowledge I am told in to making it the best experience possible for your dog and your self as the owner.

“Dita was wonderful from our first meet and greet through the entire stay. She sent us regular updates and photos of Moose and he was well cared for over the 10 days we were gone.”
