Cat Sitting in Chico

“Trena went above and beyond to take excellent care of my 2 cats. I would HIGHLY recommend booking her for your pets! She is attentive, timely, and communicative which put me at ease while we were away.”

“My pup LOVED getting visits from Alison! She was so caring, made sure she had everything she needed including a nice walk and snuggles. Stayed in contact and even checked with me later to make sure Lilah was doing well. I can clearly see her love for animals and I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Hello! I’m a dog trainer who recently relocated to Bozeman, and I’m here to help care for your pets as I establish my business and get to know the community! I have a large, fenced backyard and two friendly, playful dogs. I’ve done independent, private dog training for the past two years and am excited to turn it into my full-time career. I have apprenticed under Peak Dog Training in NM, fostered and rehabilitated dogs with behavioral issues, and worked with animal shelters in WY, UT, and NM. Let me know what kind of care you’re looking for- I’m excited to meet you and your dogs! I am blessed to have a flexible schedule! If your dog is boarding with me, I will always be there to supervise and give them lots of love. Your dog will live alongside me and my dogs, joining in on our day-to-day activities. My lessons outside of my home last an hour, so your dog won’t be unattended longer than 1.5hrs. I will often bring dogs with me to lessons if they seem like they will enjoy it, and on any outings my dogs and I take! I don’t kennel dogs or separate them from me unless they enjoy sleeping in a kennel or if the owner requests it. I have a dog camera, so if I ever need to leave your dog for a short period of time, I will be updated if they are barking or uncomfortable. Typically the dogs I board are with me 24/7, and I treat them like one of my own dogs. I have a large, fully fenced in back yard and two very friendly dogs your pup can play with! I will do supervised dog intros and never leave your dog unattended. We take lots of hikes and walks, so if your dog is able to do that we would bring them along! I supervise all meetings with new people or other dogs based on your dog’s personality and your preferences.

About: I love all animals no matter the breed, age, size, or medical history. I’m always thrilled to meet another 4 legged (or 2/3 legged) friend and get to know their unique personalities. I’ve been around animals my whole life and couldn’t have imagined it any other way. I’m fortunate to have been raised with labs, a schnauzer, many cats, and other various animals. I’m home for a few months finding side gigs (like caring for your furry friend) and raising money for my nonprofit currently operating in West Africa. My schedule is very flexible - weekdays, weekends, holidays (usually), late nights, early mornings, whenever! I occasionally visit friends in North Idaho, so feel free to reach out to know if my availability is up to date :) I’m big on giving treats but always follows the owner’s preferences and instructions. Each animal has their own needs and I do my best to provide for them however I can.

About: I have owned and cared for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, ducks, pigs, chickens, and budgies. I was invloved in 4H for 3 years and have always been an animal lover! I’m comfortable with training and medication administration for both dogs and horses, and always take extra long walks! I'm currently going into my senior year at MSU, and am in summer classes. I'm available in the mornings, midday and nights to drop in or house sit. I greatly value respect and responsibility, so caring for your pet as you would is important to me. Following your directions for caring for your pet is my go-to, as I believe that’s the best way to ensure your companion feels secure and comfortable. I’m very active and am sure to exercise and play with your pet often throughout the day.

“We took the 8 hour Wildlife tour with Elijah and it was great!! We ended up being the only ones that signed up, so we got a private tour and saw lots and lots of animals in Lamar Valley and beyond. Elijah was well prepared, provided a nice lunch and was fun to spend the day with. I would highly recommend this tour!”

About: I live in downtown Belgrade with my husband. We have a large fenced in yard at .4 acres and a doggie door. We have two wonderful dogs; a mini Aussie and golden retriever pit lab mix. I have worked with children and animals since I was old enough to handle the responsibility and started volunteering at Heart of the Valley animal shelter in Belgrade, MT. I grew up in a typical suburb in St. Louis, Missouri and always helped watch neighbors pets and children and have done it through college, post college, and presently speaking. I am extremely reliable and timely. I treat others loved ones as my own. I don’t have any allergies to pets, dander, etc. I have regular clients through word of mouth and am looking to add a few to my roster. I love watching all types of animals! I work for myself and make my own schedule. I have a lot of flexibility and love spending time with animals and being outdoors. My dogs are very friendly and love to play. I am very active. If you request house sitting I can’t be there 24/7. I enjoy hiking everyday and hope your dogs can come with me. I understand some folks want their dogs to stay at their home I just want to share I will still need to be gone parts of the day taking care of my dogs as well as other daily life tasks. I prefer boarding at my home overall but can accommodate house sitting. I have a separate, personal, insurance plan for pet daycare & boarding, with expanded coverage for client pets. I am happy to share my certificate including all limits for general liability, vet care, human medical coverage, damage to property, and more. I also know how to perform CPR on pets.

I’ll make a checklist of all the chores and details that go into your pet care! Nothing is too big or too small! …Lucy likes her treats in her doggie bed? You got it! Stewie needs his pills with peanut butter? You got it! I have experience with training, shock collars, and resource guarding. I’ll send pictures/videos each time because I appreciated that so much while I was on vacation myself!

“Abigail was very helpful in watching my cat while I was gone for a week. She was very communicative & did all tasks asked of her :) she gave my cat lots of love and he was happy & healthy when I returned. Thanks Abigail!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and animals my entire life, bred puppies and nursed elderly dogs! Definitely a passion of mine. I’ve trained a few rescues as well. I work part time so I’m home quite often, other than that I spend my free time hiking or taking walks with my own pups. Fenced yard, open spaced home, great walking neighborhood with dog park only 1 mile away. Two other very sweet pups reside here with me, they love making new friends! Willow I’ve raised since a puppy, she’s a 3 year old lab who is insanely affectionate and energetic, and beyond sweet. She does get overly excited meeting new dogs. Tyson I adopted a few months ago, he’s an 8 year old lab and is a tender hearted soul. He’s much slower paced than Willow but will still play around from time to time! It’s different for each sitting and depends on what each owner is looking for. I will not take on opportunities that I can’t be fully invested and present for. Plenty of free time to accommodate your pups needs! Communication with other owners is vital from both ends to be sure everyone is taken care of and happy.

“Erica did such a stellar job taking care of our kitties while we were camping! Erica is super mature and clearly competent, which made a big difference in helping me feel completely confident both cats would be fine even though we were out of service while we were gone. When we got home, the kitties were calm and everything was clean and in perfect order. I highly recommend Erica and would definitely feel comfortable leaving our dog with her as well if we were taking a dog-free trip!”

About: I have worked with Ididarod champions with the Seavey's as well as helped out an older gentleman run his small kennel. I have lots of experience with pets and their families. I also currently work at an Animal Hospital, where a lot of my passion revolves around the care and health of our furry friends. I believe that our lives improve with pets in our lives, and I can guarantee to treat your babies as if they are my own. I love pets and being able to care for them. If they are happy, its easy for me to find joy. I plan to make time for every pet that is put under my care. I can care for pets at their home, as this tends to be more comfortable for pets that I watch under my care, however I can offer my home if need be.

About: Hello, I go by Hilton (middle name). I live in Bozeman, Montana but cover anywhere within 100 miles for sittings! I've had pets for most of my life. I do not have one now, because I take care of so many sweet pups. I have 100+ hours of volunteer work at animal shelters. I understand how they act, react, and each pet has its own personality! That’s what’s so beautiful about them! I do not mind pit bulls or any kind of dog/animal as long as everything is done safely. I have time day and night to walk, care, and really give the pets the love they deserve. That’s what I’m here for. Thank you! Anytime, my work schedule is very flexible. Available 24/7 day and night any animal any time. I will give your pet all the attention they need. I have a small snow removal business. Unless it is snowing, this is my primary job/focus. I like to give your pets as much of my time as possible! I care for your pets based on your expectations. I will only accept one job at a time, so I don't have to split my attention. I can't be 2 places at once!

About: I have had all kinds of pets my whole life! I live with a cat and two lovely dogs and we are excited for company! I have recently moved to working much less and I have more time to do the things I love! My new nine to five is dogs dogs dogs! I have a big fenced yard and two wonderful dogs to keep your furry friends company! I have private rooms for boarding and crates if needed and because I live on site I will always be in reach of our loved ones.

About: I have been a dog lover, my whole life. My daughter, Maggie is actually named after my first dog! We have a three year-old great Dane mix that loves having friends over! If your dog would not love that we also have an outdoor kennel we offer in our home, one on one dog sitting and outdoor kennel stays in the front pasture. Our five horses are on site. We are five minutes from Gardiner at the north entrance to Yellowstone. The next closest kennel is 40 minutes north of us one way. Our property houses for vacation cabin rentals- LittleTrailCreekCabins. I am on site pretty much every day. I may be doing yard work or cleaning one of our vacation rentals. I occasionally will drive to Gardiner or Livingston. We have the outdoor kennel in the front pasture. It has a partial roof and fenced in area. We also have dog treats inside the garage or if your pop would like they are welcome to hang out with me and my dog for the day which could include doing yardwork, going for a walk, going for a ride in the car, or at one of our vacation cabins. I am a retired nurse of 25 years.

About: Hi there! I am Erin- a lifelong animal lover with a warm heart, and an intuitive understanding of what pets need to feel safe and loved. Caring for dogs isn’t just a side hustle for me- it’s a true passion. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, cozy overnight snuggles, or keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I genuinely love what I do and animals can sense that right away. My clients often tell me they can relax knowing their furry family members are in good hands. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and tuned in to each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior or spirited, I adjust to their rhythm and needs. You will get updates, sweet photos and total peace of mind. Let me be your pet’s new best friend. I’d be honored to take care of them while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy starting my day with a walk, giving pets time to exercise and enjoy the fresh air. I also make sure to create a calm and engaging environment, whether it's through playtime, cuddle sessions, or ensuring that pets are fed and hydrated on time. I take pride in offering personalized care that fits each pet's needs, making sure they feel loved and comfortable throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for the pet. I follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner, whether it's feeding schedules, exercise routines, or any special needs. I make sure to provide plenty of attention, whether it’s through play, walks, or cuddle time, while maintaining the pet's routine as much as possible. I also keep the home clean and tidy, making sure to follow any house rules or preferences the owner has. Communication is key, so I keep pet owners updated with photos and messages to ensure they’re confident in the care their pets are receiving.

About: If you are looking for a human who loves your pets like you do I am looking forward to meeting you and providing loving care, companionship and exercise for your beloved pet. I have a strong connection to animals and the natural world. I have years of experience taking care of pets, both my own and in service to friends and family. I am delighted to bring joy to your pet's world by spending quality time with them in your home, on a walk or short check-ins to ensure that they are well-cared for and loved in your absence. I am happy to work with dogs and cats of all ages and look forward to helping you provide a beautiful life for your furry family members.
