“Trena sat for me at my home and watched my two small dogs. She’s very kind and caring and was very easy to work with. She let me know, throughout her stay, how my pups were doing and kept me updated with photos. She took great care of my two dogs and helped ease my mind. I will definitely see if she’s available again in the future.”
“Shelbie is wonderful! I was on a trip out of state and she made sure my kitties were fed, and loved. She was very responsive and took lots of pictures while she cared for them. I would recommend Shelbie to anyone in need to pet care.”
“Savannah was very communicative and was wonderful with updates. She was flexible with meeting our pups before her stay so they would familiarize themselves with her. She asked questions to ensure she knew all relevant information. Even our anxious dog warmed up to her quickly. You can tell she really cares about your pets. We will definitely be booking with Savannah again and cannot thank or recommend her enough!!”
“Krista is adored by our dog & takes great care of her while we are away. We always know when we come home we are coming home to a happy pup & clean home. She really is the best!!!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was about six years old. just started with feeding or helping my sister clean the hermit crab tank. Ive also volunteered on and off at shelters in Montana, a couple times in Bozeman and a month or two in Helena. I've lived with geckos, horses, hermit crabs, cats, dogs, fish and other aquatic animals including small frogs and snails. I have school during the year for an hour in the morning, so I'm pretty free to take care of your beautiful animals or just hanging out with them! I will be able to take care of your pet in your house, I will bring myself some handmade treats if allowed for dogs or some churues for the kitties!
About: I have been the mom of dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and chickens for many years. Right now I have a BEAUTIFUL German Shorthaired Pointer, two cats and chickens. I enjoy all energy levels and all personality types. I have been a pet sitter for many friends as well. I have a very flexible schedule as I am not working a full time job. I have one more child that will be graduating this year and then my husband and I will be empty nesters. I think a pet's comfort is based on continued adherence to their routines. Familiar smells and activities always help with separation anxiety. Mental training exercises can also help with high energy animals.
About: I have grown up in a household that is rare to not have a dog in it. Because of this, I have spent most of my life taking care of the dogs as a normal part of my day. From feeding them to walking and bathing, and taking care of them as the recover from medical procedures. Not only that, but I have been given the opportunity by friends and neighbors to dog sit for them while they out of town on a multitude of occasions. The variety of dogs that I have taken care has gone all over the place, from a singular Pomeranian to three energetic border collies. I am a full time college student living on campus most of the year, but leaving campus for a couple of hours throughout the day is always a blessing for me, especially when it comes to this kind of work. Unfortunately because I am in on-campus housing, I will not be able to bring your dog with me back to my apartment because of the policies of the school. However I am more than happy to take care of your dog at home, as I have easy transportation around town.
“Gabby was wonderful with our four dogs and made going out of town less stressful. She came and met the dogs before her stay and then provided numerous updates and pictures throughout her time with the dogs! Did not have to worry at all about them being taken care of.”
“Mitch did an amazing job looking after our fur babies! Our animals loved him. On top of that he also offered to take care of the house while we were gone. We will definitely be using him again for future needs. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8-9 but I grew up with old English bulldogs, and pit bulls. Always playing, taking them out on walks, keeping them active. My schedule is open. I’m a gym manager at Planet Fitness Tuesday-Saturday. From Noon-8pm But I can work around my schedule if you needed me too! I have 2 Australian shepherds, Maggy & Tucker. They are very spoiled babies, I feed them when I leave for work, they get both dry and wet dog food. When I get home I refill there dishes with dry food, they gets treated of course.

“Shannon is the best! She is on time, responsive and accommodating. More importantly my crazy 6 month old pit bull puppy responds well with her and when we come home, he seems happy and content. Bridger can be a bit rambunctious but Shannon handles him really well which is what he needs. I highly recommend Shannon.”
About: Helena, MT and surrounding areas! Accepting all pets, including farm and ranch! I am a native born and raised Montanan with a lifelong passion for all living creatures. I have spent the past 3 years working with dogs, cats, birds and small farm animals offering “just like home” services in our community. If you need a house sitter, drop in checks during the day, walks, transportation and/or grooming, I’m your go to gal guaranteeing peace of mind while you are away. I currently work full-time with the ability for early morning and late afternoon/evening services as well as full services on weekends. I will be opening full-time day and night services soon, stay tuned! If you’re jam packed with work, kids or other commitments and that “last minute” left fielder hits, I can be there to help keep your furry family calm and tended to. I am passionate about health and safety, following specific procedures and protocols. Please tell me if your family member is unsure of other animals or people, which is ok and understandable! This information helps me prepare to work with your pet on their level and grow a trusting relationship with them (and you!). I am experienced and capable of handling specific temperaments and array of different personalities both in group daycare and single settings, let’s chat! - I require domestic pets to be updated on all vaccinations. - Areas of my home (including communal toys, blankets, beds, dishes etc.) are sanitized between guests. - Pets are separated when unsupervised. - New clients always remain on leash when outside fenced areas. Let me know if your pet requires leash training so I can help!
“Anna watched Ranger for almost a week. Ranger is a high energy GSD puppy still training so he needs a lot of attention, patience and exercise. She sent regular updates and photos and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I believe all his needs were met, no complaints from us! We would book her again.”
“Molly was the best!! She took great care of our two dogs and our home. We really appreciate the great communication and daily pics as well! She even left us a very nice note about our pups before she left. Thanks Molly!!!!”
About: I've been around and have taken care of various breeds from puppies to seniors; I enjoy every moment with dogs of all shapes and sizes and don't mind a little pet hair! I am available most weekends and occasionally on weekdays. I can stay over to watch your animals or drop by a few times a day if needed. Pets deserve our respect and attention; I do my best to ensure my animals and the animals under my care are safe, healthy, and happy!
About: I’ve always been around animals and, quite frankly, favored them over people ;) I grew up around dogs, cats, horses, and, later on, sheep in central Illinois. My heart is geared towards animals and I’ll make sure to take good care every walk and burn some energy for the pups. I will be working full time, so weekends are my go-to! Fridays may also be available but will need to be discussed prior to the walk. I remember being a part of our own family’s dog’s training when I was a child and watching and being involved in that entire process. I communicate well with dogs and offer treats, long walks, and some free time for the owner!
About: I have been taking care of and have been surrounded by dogs for my entire life. I took full-time care of three dogs starting at age 13 and up. I still care for those dogs every so often, and now have my own puppy as well! I am a college student with a flexible schedule. I have a dog of my own, so going on walks and providing care for animals is already part of my everyday schedule. I monitor feeding, bathroom and play to ensure there are no hazardous conditions or situations. I am extremely careful with keeping different doors closed and rooms blocked off. I am comfortable dealing with kennels, and I can follow any direction or explanation.
About: I can care for your dog like I care for mine, if I could save all the pets in the world I would. Every animal means the world to me so I would only treat your pet with love an affection 💙 I currently work at the hospital in Helena Montana. From 5am-130 pm. I’m off on weekends will to help and work with whatever you may need. I have plenty of room for your pet , I have a dog kennel if needed. My yard is not fenced but I will be more than will to walk them around. My pets are very spoiled lol can’t make any promises that yours won’t be ☺️

“Cosmo has been responsible for pets nearly all his life, he really connects with them and loves being around them. Not only does he step up for friends who need him to check on animals, but he also has his own small business selling handmade dog treats.

Kara D.
“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved dog and cat to Kara, and I am delighted to share my positive experience. From the moment I booked with Kara to the end, every aspect of the process was seamless and exceeded my expectations. First and foremost, communication with her was outstanding. She was prompt in responding to my initial inquiry, and was quick and thorough in answering my questions. It was evident that she prioritizes clear and transparent communication, which created a sense of trust and reassurance for me. Upon meeting Kara, it was apparent that she has a genuine love for animals. She connected instantly with both my dog and cat. I knew they would be in good hands while I was away. I greatly appreciated her attention to detail, such as sending me updates with pictures of my dog fetching his favorite ball and of my cat curled up and content next to her on the couch. One aspect that stood out to me was Kara's commitment to adhering to my specific instructions for the dog's walks and treats, keeping him on track with his training. My experience with Kara was outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to fellow pet owners. She will be my first choice for future bookings. Thank you, Rover, for introducing such a fantastic addition to your network of pet care providers.”

Jenna C.
“Jenna has been my wife for 14 years and my best friend for 21 years. There is no one I would trust more with the care of our animals and the care of other peoples pets, then her. Her love and compassion for our four legged family members, knows no bounds. Choosing her to help with your needs, would be the same as asking a close friend or family member to take care of them.”
