“Stephanie did an amazing job taking care, loving Reggie Rae. She provided pictures and updates on Reggie’s adventures/days with her dog Doc and her cat. I couldn’t have found a better sitter for Reggie Rae and I will definitely use her services again. Communication was outstanding!”

About: I have taken care of many different animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds for over 12 years. Over the years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs, chickens, and ducks. I adore all animals and love taking care of them in the comfort of their own homes. I am happy to administer medications, give the animals as much exercise as they need, and follow their feeding and sleep schedules. I work from home, so I am around to provide love, care, play, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day when needed. I have many consistent breaks from work throughout the day to hang out with the animals! I am very flexible in my care of pets and will adhere to your specific routines and needs for your pet(s). I am very affectionate toward animals especially if that is what they need to thrive in their environment while their parents are away! I also understand if certain animals require a more hands-off approach and like to just do their own thing while I am around. I take dogs on walks 2x a day (unless other needs are stated and agreed upon) and play with them throughout the day as I work from home. Creating a comfortable environment for your animals is super important to me!

About: I’ve taken care of all animals, big and small. I grew up with dogs and cats, and have barely had any time without one of the two. I grew up on a small farm and I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals. I work 5 hours a day and the rest I’ll be able to take care of your furry babies. I love spending time with animals, and it’s the best part of my day! I love playing with pets and providing them with some much needed cuddle time. I try and keep to their specific feeding schedules and potty schedules. They’ll be well taken care of!

“Kylee was super communicative and very sweet with my dog. I would highly recommend her! My dog wasn't frantic or overly nuts when I arrived home from my 3 day trip which indicates he was well cared for and got lots of attention. Thank you Kylee!”

“Kelsi, was on time and flexible and our pup was in good spirits when we got home and seemed to be well cared for.”

Luke M.

“After an unexpected sudden death in the family, Kelsey promptly responded to my request and started taking care of my two dogs the very next day. She did a wonderful job and even went the extra mile with cleaning up after my pups which is not easy lol. I highly recommend Kelsey and will book her again. Thank you Kelsey!”

Steven R.

“Ayla did a great job! Our Fozzy loved her!”

Christina S.

“Shayla was very concerned about Gus and wasn’t afraid to ask questions about his care. Our dog is used to being able to roam at his will which concerned her. He has trouble warming up to people but by second day he was happy to hang with her. She stuck in there!”

Amy P.

“Kori did an AMAZING job! Felt comfortable with leaving our furkids with her and my dogs felt the same, from the moment we met! She sent pictures and updates often. When we arrived home you would never have known she was there. Would recommend her for ANYONE in need of a pet/home sitter. I am happy to be a reference to call if needed.”

About: My best friend as young kid was my dog. Matilda the Australian Shepard was by my side since the age of three as my partner in crime running around our house or yard and growing up my brother and I were always given the responsibility of our pet's care. That ran the gamut as we had a menagerie that required all sorts of different needs from checking the hermit crab's shell, taking our dog to 4-H obedience classes, feeding our parakeets, taking turns monitoring new born pups, and of course all the clean up that comes with having a pet. Taking good care of and being observant of what a pet is telling you has always been a big part of my life. I previously had my own sitting business in college and my clients ranged from a tabby cat that just needed fresh food and water in the mornings to a family of 7 chihuahuas some with special care needs, 3 cats and 2 rabbits. More recently I have had a lot of experience with my own senior dogs, administering medicines, and being mindful of how they move or may need extra time and TLC. I know every pet has their routine that is specific to them and that they rely on so I keep a "care card" on every pet with all the specifics in their care including emergency contact #'s including veterinary information I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule which allows for all sorts of care options for your pet. I can plan ahead for your pet care or feel free to check with me spur of the moment in case something comes up and I will do my best to help out. being mindful of every pet's different needs I think is a big part of safety for everyone. Knowing what makes the pet feel comfortable is very important as just knowing and being mindful that I would be initially a stranger and out of the pet's normal routine from it's family helping them feel safe and cared for will be top of mind for me. I know every pet has their routine that is specific to them and that they rely on so I keep a "care card" on every pet with all the specifics in their care including emergency contact number's including veterinary information

“Riley came through for us very last minute when we had a flight cancelled and took awesome care of our pugs! Would absolutely use again!!”

Feel free to contact me with any questions you have! -Drew I’m currently only working a few days a week so have a very flexible schedule.

I’m a very trustworthy person, and have experience caring for animals that aren’t necessarily my own. I’ve fostered both dogs and cats, and house and pet sit for family and friends often. I will respect you and your home completely.

“This was the first time we’ve had anyone look after our two year old, 80 lb Catahoula. Britta was fantastic! Great communicator, was able to establish trust and be a strong pack leader immediately. We knew we had left our energetic, stubborn, and velcro pup in the right hands. We would definitely recommend Britta to others.”

About: Passionate Dog Trainer/Walker Ready to go on Adventures Hello there! My name is Zoro, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as your friendly neighborhood dog trainer/walker. With a heart full of love for all our furry friends, I cannot wait to embark on exciting adventures with your beloved canine companion. My journey as a dog walker began years ago when I discovered my deep-rooted connection with animals. Growing up surrounded by pets, I quickly realized that spending time with dogs brought me unparalleled joy and fulfillment. From that moment on, I knew that my purpose in life was to provide exceptional care and support to our four-legged friends. When it comes to my dog walking philosophy, I believe in nurturing not only physical well-being but also emotional happiness for our furry pals. My primary goal is to create a safe and stimulating environment where dogs can thrive, explore, and have an absolute ball during our walks together. With an innate understanding of canine behavior, I am adept at tailoring my approach to cater to the unique needs and personalities of each dog I encounter. Whether it's a high-energy pooch who craves a vigorous run in the park or a more mellow companion who prefers a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood, I am committed to providing a customized experience that leaves their tail wagging with joy. Safety is my top priority, and you can rest assured that your furry friend will be in capable hands under my care. I am well-versed in canine first aid and CPR, and I maintain a keen eye for potential hazards during our outings. I am also experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring that even the most timid or boisterous canines feel secure and comfortable throughout our walks. In addition to the physical exercise aspect, I strongly believe in the power of mental stimulation for dogs. I incorporate engaging activities, such as interactive games and puzzle toys, to keep their minds sharp and active. Whether it's sniffing out hidden treats or practicing basic obedience commands, I'm always on the lookout for opportunities to make our time together both fun and mentally enriching. Above all, I strive to build trusting relationships not only with the dogs I walk but also with their human companions. Open and transparent communication is key to providing the best care possible, and I am always available to discuss any concerns, requests, or special instructions you may have. Your dog's well-being and happiness are of utmost importance to me, and I am committed to going the extra mile to ensure their needs are met. So, if you're searching for a dog walker who combines boundless enthusiasm, unwavering dedication, and a genuine love for dogs, look no further! Let's join forces and embark on a tail-wagging adventure together. Contact me today, and let's schedule a meet-and-greet to see if I'm the perfect fit for your four-legged friend. Together, we'll create pawsome memories that will last a lifetime! I work from anywhere I have mostly answer phone calls for my business. Which gives me time to take care of dogs. Train them and take them on adventures. When it comes to caring for pets in either my home or my client's home, I ensure that their well-being, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. The specific care provided may vary depending on the service I offer, so let's delve into both scenarios: Caring for pets in my home: If I offer services where pets stay with me, I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment that replicates a home-like atmosphere. Here's how I care for pets in my home: 1. Comfortable accommodations: I provide a cozy space for pets to relax, ensuring they have a comfortable bed or a designated area where they can unwind. 2. Regular feeding and hydration: I adhere to the feeding schedule provided by the pet owner and make sure fresh water is readily available at all times. Special dietary needs or medication administration will be strictly followed as instructed. 3. Exercise and playtime: I engage pets in stimulating activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. Whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or enjoying interactive toys, I ensure they receive the exercise and mental stimulation they require. 4. Regular potty breaks and hygiene: I maintain a consistent bathroom schedule, taking pets outside for potty breaks. I also provide regular grooming, including brushing, bathing, and nail trims, if necessary. 5. Safety and supervision: I create a secure environment, free from potential hazards, and monitor pets closely to ensure their safety at all times. I supervise their interactions with other pets, if applicable, to ensure a peaceful and harmonious environment. Caring for pets in the client's home: If I offer services where I visit the client's home to care for their pets, my approach revolves around maintaining their routine and surroundings. Here's how I care for pets in their own homes: 1. Adhering to routines: I strive to follow the established routines provided by the pet owner, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions for their care. 2. Feeding and medication administration: I ensure pets receive their meals according to the provided schedule and administer any necessary medications as instructed. 3. Exercise and enrichment: I engage pets in physical activities tailored to their needs, whether it's going for walks, playing in the yard, or engaging in interactive play. I also provide mental stimulation through puzzles, toys, and positive reinforcement training. 4. Maintaining cleanliness: I keep the pet's living areas clean and tidy, including regular litter box cleaning for cats or ensuring a clean outdoor space for dogs. 5. Security and well-being: I make sure the home is secure during my visits, ensuring doors and windows are properly closed and locked. I also keep a watchful eye for any potential signs of distress or health issues in the pets and report any concerns to the owner promptly. Overall, my goal is to provide a loving and attentive environment, whether in my home or the client's home, ensuring that pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for in every possible way.

About: Hi there! My name is Amy, and I started Rover to provide pet care to others, as I would like for mine. I've grown up with animals, and love being a dog owner of 2 labs. My full-time profession is being a School Psychologist, but during the summer I decided to find ways to work with animals more. I believe in positive-based behavioral training, which has worked with training our own puppy this past year. I’m patient, kind, and passionate about treating your animal how I’d want mine to be treated and loved. My husband is a mental health counselor and sometimes will be around if your animal is cared for in my home. He also has the same approaches and beliefs as myself towards our pets. Since I have my summers off, my schedule is very flexible. I have a few river rafting trips and backpacking trips planned, so if I don't respond within the 24 time frame, I'm likely out of service but will get back to you when I'm able to. I also love to take the dogs on my own outside adventures, such as walking or swimming in Flathead lake or in the river. If your dog is being watched at our house, we have a fenced in a yard, but one side of the fencing is only 3 ft. high, so clear communication if your dog likes to escape fencing is appreciated. Your animals are welcome on our furniture and throughout the house. Our 2 labs are both friendly, however, the male (Shreddy- loves to shred sticks) is not fixed and is "overly" friendly if you have a female that is in heat. Most of the time, he's very excited to say hi and plays for 15 minutes, and then will take a nap and do his own thing. Camper, is our 2-year old female lab, and loves to play with any dog for long periods of time if you have a pup that has lots of energy! I believe in communication, consistency, and positive reinforcement for animals. I always will make sure they feel safe, and stay consistent with your training styles and rules. I’m also a very active and engaged person, so I’ll always be loving and attentive towards your pet. Please reach out if you just need a play date at our house, house sitting your pet, or just check-ins and playing with them throughout the day! 🐶🐾🦴 I don't work a consistent job in the summer, so I'm very flexible except when I'm going on trips for a few days at a time. I have a fenced yard for your dog to go in and outside as needed. We also have 2 crates if your dogs prefers it if they stay the night. Animals are welcome on couches and beds if they'd like. 1 side of the fence is only 3 ft. high, so communication is important if your dog likes to escape fences.
