“Andy took great care of our lab. He gave her plenty of exercise and updated us daily with photos. He genuinely seemed to enjoy our dog which means a lot to us. I highly recommend Andy if you need someone to watch your dog.”

“Lucy was outstanding. It was our first time using her and Rover and we were nervous especially because our pup is a nervous one. She was so thoughtful and patient and genuinely showed up to care for Calvin and he was sincerely welcomed into her home. She was communicative and provided great photos which we greatly appreciated. I would recommend Lucy to everyone and we will use her again!”

“So glad I found Olivia to watch our dog while we were gone! Great at communicating and her yard is so great for dogs to run and play safely! My dog came home happy and tired from having so much fun playing! We already rebooked for a future trip and will book more in the future if needed!”

“Morgan always takes the best care of our Lucy. Lucy has unlimited amounts of energy but she always comes home from Morgan’s exhausted! She never wants to come home because she’s having too much fun.”

“We needed a place for our dog Rooney to hang out and have fun during the day while we were hiking some trails in Glacier National Park as dogs are not allowed on the trails. Whitney was super friendly and extremely flexible as we made changes to our plans on short notice! If you are in the area and in need of a sitter I would highly recommend her! Super convenient location to the west side entrance of the park as well!”

About: I grew up in Montana and have always loved the small-town way of life. My passion for animals started when I rescued my first dog at 15, and he now lives on through his two siblings. Caring for animals has been something I’ve always enjoyed, and I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. I have worked at a local dog boarding and daycare facility for the past four years, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. Whether it’s high-energy pups, senior dogs, or those needing a little extra patience, I’m well-versed in providing personalized care to ensure every dog feels safe and loved. I work full time Monday thru Friday 7:00 AM - 3:00PM with weekends off! I can be flexible with running home during the day for a potty break. Weekends are spent at home or doing a fun outdoor activity! At home, all dogs are treated like family! I live in an apartment complex with three fully fenced, off-leash dog areas, giving pups plenty of space to play and exercise. For dogs staying in my home, they must be dog and cat friendly, as I have my own pets. If I’m caring for your pup in your home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible.
“Zoie was an absolutely incredible dog sitter. Five stars does not feel like enough. She sent frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave me a great deal of peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive and proactive, reaching out when one of my dogs was whining so we could work together to figure out what he needed. My two dogs have special needs. One is blind and takes daily medication, and the other is deaf. Caring for them requires patience, attention, and flexibility, and Zoie handled it all with kindness and confidence for more than a week. It was clear from the beginning that she genuinely cared about their well being. I also made a mistake with my travel plans, and Zoie graciously kept them an extra night without hesitation. When they ran out of food before their new shipment arrived, she made sure they were fed and cared for until it did. One of my dogs even came home with a toy he became completely obsessed with, which was such a thoughtful gesture and a reflection of how much attention she paid to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Zoie consistently went above and beyond. She was not just a five star sitter. She was a ten. I would trust her with my dogs again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“Shannon took such excellent care of my dog while I was away for over a week! My pup’s always so well loved and exhausted in the best way when she comes back from Shannon’s house! :)”
“Sophie was great! Very friendly and provided excellent care for our dog, Daisy. We felt very comfortable leaving for 9 days because we knew she was in good hands. Sophie was responsive and made drop off and pickup easy. We appreciated the large fenced in yard and inviting home. We’d definitely use her again. Thank you!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, big and small, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m the go-to sitter for friends because I genuinely love being around animals and put a lot of care into making sure they feel safe, understood, and comfortable. During my psychology degree, I spent a year and a half studying Animal-Assisted Interventions, focusing on animal behavior, emotional attunement, human-animal connection, and therapeutic support work. My own dog is a huge part of my life — she travels around the country with me and goes almost everywhere by my side. I personally trained her with therapy/service dog foundations, which taught me a lot about patience, consistency, structure, and reading a dog’s needs and body language I'm fortunate that my days are centered around my dog, Bennie. I get up, let her out right away, then prepare her breakfast, and she eats while we start the morning together outside. I’m home most of the time and spend my days in the yard gardening, doing yard work, or working on projects around the property, so she’s with me and supervised throughout the day. I also always make sure there’s some form of engagement or mental stimulation so dogs are never bored or over-energized, whether that’s training, enrichment activities, or interactive play. If I need to run errands, Bennie usually comes with me and stays in the car if the weather is safe. If it’s too warm, she stays home in her calm, familiar environment instead. I’m typically only gone for short errands and make a point of never leaving her alone for long. When we’re not at home, we’re usually outside doing something active- swimming at the lake, going on hikes, going for runs, or taking long walks. Our lifestyle is very outdoors-oriented, and she’s included in almost everything I do Bennie is always at the top of my mind, and safety is my number one priority. I have a fully fenced, dog-proof yard with a secure gate that is always kept closed. I also have cameras on the property to monitor for wildlife or anything unsafe outside. Inside the home, I use non-toxic, pet-safe cleaning products and avoid harsh chemicals. I’m very mindful of anything dogs could be sensitive to, including what they’re exposed to, what they play with, and what they’re given. I only use safe toys and bones that are appropriate and supervised. Overall, I focus on creating a calm, secure environment where dogs can relax, explore, and feel completely safe while still having structure and supervision
“Sherri is absolutely wonderful! My senior pup is set in his ways and not a big fan of change, but did amazing with Sherri. She really puts her fur-friends first, sticks to their routines, sets up her home so it's comfortable for them and really understands their needs...as well as the needs of the pup's parents! We will absolutely leave our guy with Sherri again!”

“Our minds were at ease dropping Martha off with Becky! She kept us updated sending pictures and videos of Martha playing with her daughter. Becky worked with us last minute which was a lifesaver. I would definitely work with Becky again ?”

“Awesome! Our dog had an incredible time staying with Kelly. Kelly communicated well, was responsive and responsible with our dog. Gracie got to play with other dogs, go on long walks and even go for a swim! Kelly sent lots of photos and took very good care of our pup. Her place has such wonderful outdoor areas for dogs and she is knowledgeable about dog behavior and care. Highly recommend!”
“Brycen was great! We have a 1.5 year old chocolate lab with a lot of energy. We received updates about how our puppy was doing. She also seemed happy when we went to pick her up. Would recommend Brycen!”

“Kassidy was great with our dog Newton. He was there for a full week and appeared to be having a great time based on the photos sent. Newton is over 13 years old and we worried about leaving him so long, but he did really well under Kassidy’s care.”

About: I am a full time Physical Therapist living in Whitefish with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I absolutely love animals. I am active and love the outdoors, so I will be more than happy to run or walk your dog as needed. I've been caring for animals since I was in high school and have had experience with all shapes, sizes, and ages. That being said, I have no problem giving medications, training, etc. I am quick to respond to calls/texts and give updates regularly while owners are away or at work and so forth. My goal is to go through your animals’ daily routine as closely as possible. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be in contact with you as well as your pets soon! I’m currently working full time as a Physical Therapist and have some flexibility in my schedule to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pup. I work 8-10 hour days and if the location is right, can drop by over lunch for a potty break if needed. I will care for your pet at your home as close as possible to their regular schedule. If a walk morning and night is needed, they’ll get it. If snuggling on the couch is more important, we’ll do it!

Kelly is the BEST. She took my dogs to the river, sent me photos, and the pups were nice and tired when I got them back. I was able to spend the day in Glacier NP (her house is located between Whitefish and GNP) and know that my dogs were being well cared for. Kelly has a gorgeous piece of fenced property where the dogs could wander around and explore. Great energy all the way around. I look forward to booking Kelly again when I'm in the area!
