“Tracey was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated throughout the weekend with multiple messages, which I really appreciated. I could tell Winston had a great time—he was completely worn out and slept the entire day after I picked him up! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“We felt 100% confident leaving our dog with Kara. She really cared about him! She even sent us pictures and a video of their adventures so we knew our baby was having a great stay. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Mike was awesome. I was nervous about leaving me dog for the first time while I went on vacation. My dog loved Mike instantly. Mike sent several pictures and updates about my dogs daily adventures. My dog was having a great time and getting a doggie vacation as well. Would highly recommend Mike and would have him sit for me again.”
“Randy took wonderful care of Mia overnight! She got walks, treats and patience to settle in! It was a great way for us to be able to enjoy the Tetons without leaving our dog at home for the entire trip.”
“We dropped our 1.5-year-old (Energy!!!) Australian Shepard, Beta, with Meg & family and we left saying, "What a perfect fit. He is in such great hands". Meg sent us updates and photos throughout Beta's stay. They took him on long walks, explored the creek, and played with him at the house. When we picked him back up it was like he was part of the family! They took amazing care. Would book again and again and again.”
“Jennifer watched our Goldendoodle for 3 days/2 nights while we went on a river trip. I recommend her without reservation. You could tell she loves dogs and that dogs love her. She sent great updates during the stay. Our dog was clearly comfortable, safe, and cared for. Convenient in-town location. Would re-book in a heartbeat.”
“Absolutely! Here’s a short raving review as the dog owner, reviewing the sitter: I couldn’t be happier with the care Kiwi received - she came home happy, calm, and clearly well-loved! Elizabeth sent us cute photos of the dogs and gave Kiwi a great hike. I’ll definitely be booking again when I need to and highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“Becky watched my dog Luna when we were exploring Yellowstone. Luna is getting taken care of! Would recommend to people who need a pet sitter for Yellowstone!”
“Willey had the best time staying with Ela and her dog. I appreciated their flexibility to meet up before hand and introduce the dogs. They have a perfect backyard for the dogs to run around! 10/10 recommend”
“Christine took care of my puppy, 8 months old and of course very demanding as he is young. My puppy had a really great time with her, her husband and her dog : they really took great care of him by playing in the snow (in his backyard), by walking downnthe street and by playing with his best buddy (Snooper, Christine’s pet). I am so happy he spent 6 days with Christine as she gave me great advice to train my puppy. I highly recommend her. She loves dogs and takes a very good care of them.”
About: I have had household dogs since I was a baby I have grown up taking care of them. I dog sat for my parents frequently and still do. I am a nurse so I work 3 days a week with frequent large gaps. I am available most days and I walk on my days off. I am able to drop on visit to play with the dog, walk, feed, let outside on a flexible schedule. I can stay for awhile or I can do a quick drop in. I am flexible for the owners usual schedule for the pet!
“Liza and Zizi took our dog, Olive, for 6 days while we were out of town. Olive tells me she had a fabulous time, and the pictures suggest the same!”
About: I like to walk jog or hike, add a dog to that activity all the better! Recently I’ve house and dog watched for a week using an E collar and calming the dog while the family was away. Around Ketchum I’ve walked 5 different dogs as well as drop in for cats and a bunny. I grew up with three golden retrievers, constantly taking part in my chores of dog care at a young age. I currently am in the down season and do not work most days of the week. Therefore I am extremely flexible for multiple drop in per day. I have been out of the country for a year and that is why there is a gap from my last booking :) I love being outside going for hikes or walks even during winter! You’re dog and I can happily go for a run outside too. I’m very patience when animals need time to adjust to new people in their space as well.
“Niki took great care of our golden retriever! She was walked daily and we got plenty of updates and pictures. Will definitely use her again!”
“I can’t recommend Hannah enough! She was SO flexible to our changing schedule and even open to taking the dogs overnight, which we hadn’t originally planned. Our puppy and 13 year old loved Hannah and her dogs, and had a great time on their lake adventure. Thank you so much!!”
“Joe was just one class act! Caring, kind and just so good with our dog Harley! Pics and comments sent every day. Could not have asked for more from him. Made our trip!”
About: I love dogs ! I wish I could have a dog in my own, but because I’m traveling a lot would be to selfish to have a dog , they deserve a lot of attention and time ! I found a solution by finding this job ! I’m working part time at the airport and also as a massage therapist, walking and playing with dogs makes me excited! 🐶🐱💚I can take care of them while you can’t ! Safety first! Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed to keep your dog safe and happy! You know better what’s good for your dog and I’m excited to learn that !
“Amy and her husband were amazing! They sent photos and videos of our mischievous boys and loved on them the whole time. They truly love dogs and are sweet, kind, people. I would definitely recommend them and hope to use them in the future!”
