Dog Walking Emigrant

About: As a lifelong animal lover with a B.S. in Animal Science and 5+ years of experience as a horse wrangler, I bring both deep expertise and genuine heart to pet care. I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic pups to gentle seniors. Whether it's managing active dogs, handling large breeds, or administering daily medications, I provide skilled, attentive care you can trust. I will treat your pup like my own! I am currently a stay at home mom with two littles, so I am very flexible. I will do what I can to work with your schedule! I have a large fenced yard and the ability to separate my dogs from yours if that is a preference. We take lots of walks around the ranch My animals are full up to date on vaccines and our cat keeps to herself. If I'm stopping into your home I am happy to provide services like walks and playtime or grooming. I want your animals to maintain their schedule as much as possible!

About: I believe great pet care is about more than feeding, walks, and letting dogs outside—it’s about making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while their person is away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and very tuned in to an animal’s individual personality and needs. I understand that every pet is different: some need lots of activity and play, while others are happiest with a calm presence, a familiar routine, and plenty of affection. I’m comfortable caring for pets at different stages of life, from energetic younger animals who need consistency and positive reinforcement to senior pets who may need a gentler pace, extra patience, and closer attention. I take routines and owner instructions seriously and will treat your pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Most importantly, I want you to be able to leave knowing your pet is with someone who will truly pay attention to them—not simply “check in” and move on. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for drop-in visits throughout the week and can work around your pet’s usual feeding, exercise, and care routine. I know how important consistency is when you’re away, so I do my best to keep your pet’s routine familiar and comfortable. I also make sure visits don’t feel rushed—whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, affection, or simply some calm companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the individualized care they need. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay in the environment they already know and feel most comfortable in. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and do my best to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any other specific care instructions. Safety and trust are very important to me. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect a pet’s safety, and I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and privacy. I also pay attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, giving them affection and interaction when they want it while respecting their space when they need it. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your pet and your home are being treated with care and respect while you’re away.

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.

“Lilli is wonderful with our dogs! They love the long walks. Professional and careful. She really thinks about the dogs and their health and safety. They are always excited to see her. 😊”

About: I have had many dogs growing up and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I have dog sat for many friends, family, and coworkers and am looking to provide the same service to you. My current housing will not allow pets, which of course, leaves me needing my fix of K-9 time. I work as a bartender, server and cook at the Olive Garden and mostly my shifts there start around four. So if you have a pug, bulldog, jack russel, german shepherd, lab, poodle, border collie, sheep dog, pit bull, doberman, wolf, direwolf, husky, cat, St. Bernard, Shitzu, husky, golden retriever, or any other animal that needs attention, walking, or just a friend, give me a call! Looking forward to making new furry friends!

About: Hi there! My name is Samantha and since I am home full-time, your pets will receive my undivided attention and a flexible routine tailored exactly to their needs. I genuinely love both cats and dogs, and I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence. Whether I am staying at your home, dropping in, or out on a walk, your pet's safety is my absolute top priority. I can confidently monitor everything they chew on, what they eat, and keep a strict, watchful eye whenever they are outside around other dogs. What sets me apart is my extensive, practical experience with medical and senior care. I am entirely comfortable administering pills, liquids, specialty diets, and medical shots (like insulin). Services I Offer: ~In-Your-Home Sitting, Walks, & Drop-Ins: Available for cats and dogs of all ages. ~Senior-Only Boarding (My Home): I live right on a beautiful trail system perfect for peaceful, low-impact walks! I have two sweet senior dogs of my own who love calm company. Because my dogs prefer a quiet environment, I happily open my home to fellow senior dogs only—no energetic puppies, just a relaxed space for older pups to lounge and stroll safely.I treat every animal in my care with the same love, protection, and respect I give my own! Because I am home full-time with an open schedule, I am flexible and can easily structure my days around your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication timelines. My regular day already revolves around senior pet care. I live right on a beautiful trail system, so my mornings and evenings include peaceful, low-impact trail walks. If I am house sitting for you, doing drop-ins, or hosting a fellow senior dog at my place, your pet will seamlessly fit into this relaxed, attentive routine. In Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins): When I watch your pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine exactly as it is to prevent any stress. I am hyper-vigilant about their safety. I closely monitor everything they chew on or eat, and I keep a watchful eye whenever we are outside around other dogs. I am highly experienced with medical routines, so I can smoothly handle precise schedules for pills, liquid medications, specialty diets, and medical shots (like insulin).

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and understand how special and important they are! I have experience training, walking and bathing dogs of all sizes. I also have experience caring for and administering medications for senior dogs. I would love to keep your furry family member company while you’re away! I have schedule flexibility as a mental health therapist and a lot of extra time as the summer months are typically slower. We can discuss longer term care as well since I can design my own schedule and will have weekend availability in the winter months. I love being active! I can easily crate your dog if needed and will never let the dog leave the house without a leash. I will keep pet care within parameters that you’re comfortable with and can spend as much time with your pet as you would like.

About: I'm a traveling registered nurse who is always looking for my next adventure. Working in the Emergency Department for 20+ years has enabled me to be calm & handle whatever situation comes my way. Somehow, I have accidentally become the pet sitter for many of my family members, friends, and their family members. I don't currently have a pet but I love to get animal snuggles when I can. I figured it's time to provide pet sitting to those in the community while getting in some animal love at the same time. I enjoy hiking, floating rivers/springs, national parks, and generally being in nature. I work seasonal & part-time nursing jobs that allow me flexibility to care for your pets. I'm a snowbird that spends winters in the south & summers in the north. I will follow your pet care instructions so that your animals can continue their routine in an environment familiar to them. I am comfortable with administering medications if needed.

About: I love dogs and would love the opportunity to watch yours. I am a very active person, I love being outside. I'm happy to take the dog out as much as you'd like, to the beach on hikes etc. I also have great references. I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life. I have cared for dogs as young as new borns to as old as seniors. My calm energy gives animals a sense of comfort. I enjoy sending daily updates via text so you can enjoy a stress free trip! I live with two dogs of my own who are early risers and full of energy. We enjoy going on long walks and adventures together. I spend a lot of my attention and care on them. I enjoy getting to know the pet(s) and make them feel safe and comfortable. I am very accommodating when it comes to particular schedules and routines.

About: I have worked with children and animals since I was old enough to handle the responsibility. 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 currently volunteer at Heart of the Valley animal shelter in Belgrade, MT offering enrichment, walks, and sleepovers to pups that need some extra love. I am extremely reliable and timely. I treat others loved ones as my own. I don’t have any allergies to pet hair or dander. I have regular clients through referrals and am looking to add a few to my roster. I love watching all types of animals! I only watch well socialized, nonreactive pups. I work for myself and make my own schedule but also work a part time job at the airport. 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 and my part time job. I prefer boarding at my home overall but can accommodate house sitting. I live in downtown Belgrade with my husband. We have a large fenced in yard at .4 acres and a doggie door. We have three wonderful dogs; a mini Aussie, a golden retriever pit lab mix, and a lab pointer mix. 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.
