“Michelle was awesome. She was very attentive and communicative. She took excellent care of my Vader during his extended stay, and I would highly recommend her. She sent a lot of photos that definitely helped put my mind at ease. Without question I will have Michelle take care of my dog again.”

About: I said I have 20 years of experience but really it goes way beyond that. I grew up with dogs in my life and this is the first time I haven't had one of my own. I have cared for family's and friend's dogs, cats, birds, rats, fish, creepy-crawlers and the occasional horse and chicken. I am very active and appreciate a good walk many times a day...but who doesn't like an afternoon nap in the sun, too. Let me take care of yours so I can have my furry fix. I have a flexible schedule and only work a few days a week. I'm home most of the time except for an occasional trip to the store, health club or visiting family. I have a young grandson who visits a couple times a week and he is very familiar with having pets. I live within the city limits and am able to travel easily between pet clients. I live by myself in an apartment and don't have my own pet at this time. Dogs are allowed in the big back yard but will need to be on a lead. I would expect lots of walking with your pup, if they are interested. If sitting at client's home, your rules are my rules.

“Appreciate the willingness to take my dog in on such short notice. Bella enjoyed the little vacation and fun times she had too. Highly recommend them for taking care of your precious puppos.”


“Kacie is the absolute best! My pup gets so excited the second he realizes he gets to spend time with his second family. Kacie is an excellent communicator and I always feel happy knowing that my little sweetie is having a good time and being cared for when I can't be with him.”


“Katy and Hunter are great to work with, and my dog loves them. Katy sends lots of pictures and updates. They have ample space for dogs to run and play. I love boarding with Katy and Hunter because they are great with dogs and relieve all the anxiety that comes with boarding a dog.”


“Lemon really enjoyed her best dog life with Monica. We were very pleased with how quickly Monica responded through text and updated us with pictures and videos of our pup during lemons stay. Thank you for loving on our dog.”


“Carlee was amazing!!! Pepper had the best time!!! The fact that Carlee takes in multiple dogs is the best!! Pepper loved being part of a pack!! I got pictures which made me so happy. Thanks for making me feel so comfortable!!”


“Jenna’s very understanding of Coco’s quirks! She took great care of her!”


“Beat person ever. My pup had a great time with all the animals and her family and kids. I don’t think sage wanted to leave cause she had so much fun. Super sweet family.”


“Lisa took great care of our girl Rylee while we hiked around the GC rim and took a helicopter flight over the canyon. She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and videos. Highly recommend!”


About: I have loved and trained dogs my whole life. I am a retired certified K-9 trainer and handler with 10 years experience. Dogs are one of my biggest joys in live. I am semi-retired professional and have a very flexible schedule to care for the dogs in my life. Dogs deserve lots of love and time for all the joy they give each of us. I offer a huge (free roam) fenced yard. I also have a kennel in the back yard with heated dog houses if needed. A doggie shower and a large kennel are available inside a heated garage. I allow dogs in my home. Numerous dog walks per day are a must. I will be honest, trustworthy and respectful when visiting your home. My property is dog safe.

“All around dog person and people person, great to work with.”


About: When I lived in Florida I would take my 10lb Havanese a small dog park frequently to play with other little dogs. It was designated for just small dogs to play while to adults would sit outside and listen to music or play games such giant Jenga, horse shoes, 4 connect, and food trucks, but it was all surrounding the smalls dogs. Since moving here, there are some small dog parks but not a lot of small dogs that she can play with one-on-one like she did there. I had the idea why not create that in my home. I have a large fenced in yard in Montana City where and would love for you to bring your small dog over for the weekend to play with Molly and socialize. Molly likes her alone time and will go into her Kennel (open) when she wants to or sit on the couch, or she will go out on the wrap around deck and watch the elk or deer on the mountain top but she is missing that few minutes of play time. She is not high energy but has spurts of energy and then will relax by herself. If this is an environment you feel will fit your small dog for the weekend, the please reach out. I am an nurse practitioner and recently retired from the Air Force. I work Monday through Friday at the VA and spend my weekends with my dog Molly on a hike. She is part of my daily routine when I get home from work as well going for walks and having play time she loves fetch with her pink ducky or Polly the Pig. In my home your four legged babies are allowed on the furniture. I will ask you what training they have so I can continue that while they are here. Molly has an open kennel in the living room and bed room so when she wants she will go in there for alone time however the door is never closed. If your dog is kennel trained, I will follow your instructions. Molly is 100% potty trained however because I work long hours from home during the week there are potty pads in the laundry room that she will use only during the week while I am at work. I believe communication between the me, the sitter, and you, owner, is the key to success when caring for your pets

Morgan M.
“Morgan took care of our elderly cat, Rajah, and did a marvelous job. Rajah was in renal distress and required special wet food, but because he couldn't eat very much at a time, we had to offer him food four times a day. Morgan was unable to stay at our house with him, so she visited four times a day to ensure that he was eating and drinking - so critical with a disease like this. I couldn't have asked for better care for him. She even sent us photo updates, which eased our minds a lot. I found Morgan to be completely dependable and responsible. I highly recommend her!”
