About: Hi! I’m Rachel, a dependable and caring animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to stick to your pet’s normal routine whether that means long walks, playtime, medication schedules, or just extra cuddles and companionship. I have experience managing multiple pets at once and am comfortable with energetic dogs, shy animals, and senior pets who may need a little extra attention. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure pet parents feel at ease. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! I’m in school right now so I have lots of availability! I’m willing to walk your dogs and check up on them throughout the day. Please message me for more info. Plenty of parks to take them to! If it’s a dog park, playing with them in your back yard, or a little hike at garden of the gods I’ll ensure your pup has the best time!

About: Big animal lover here! I’ve helped many friends care for their pets over the years- everything from dogs and cats to birds. I’ve also done a few house sits out of the state. I don’t have a pet of my own right now, so I love being able to spend time with and care for other people’s furry (and feathered) family members. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I work mostly remote and make my own schedule. That flexibility allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or just hanging out and giving them some company. I’m home a lot, so pets get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches I love getting outside for walks and fresh air, so daily walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. I also try to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed while their family is away. My goal is always to make them feel safe, cared for, and a little spoiled :)

About: I grew up with dogs in my household, small and larger. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a family where outdoor activities were a common occurrence. We would snowshoe with the dogs in the winter and take them to the lake in the summer. Currently, I have a senior dog named Kota, who is almost 11 and has arthritis. These days, we tend to have shorter walks on more flat trails but still love to get outside for some activity. I also have a 7-year-old beagle who is still very energetic and active. I do have to adapt to each dogs needs and take pride in being in tune with my dogs and how they are feeling. I do have a job outside of pet sitting but I am flexible with my schedule due to the nature of my work, I will always try to accommodate to the best of my ability. I like to make sure that active dogs get the exercise they require, and plenty of love and attention. It is important to me that they are comfortable and happy while their family is away.

About: I have 11 years of dog sitting and owning experience. I love all kinds, big and small. I’m currently petless, I’d love to walk and love on yours while you’re away. I have experience with hooved, feathered, scaled, finned, and leafy green species. I can help you care for those loved ones too! I’m off every weekend. I’m up early for the morning business and feeding. I love a good walk and some play time or pet snuggles. I can adapt my routine to fit their needs. Let me know what their routine is. I want to keep them as close to what they are used to as possible. I think that helps to keep them comfortable.

“Riley was amazing! She sent pictures and updates every day, and took time out of her day to come do a meet and greet. I came back to a clean space, fresh water, and my cat was well taken care of and happy!”

My pet-proofed home has no toxic plants, and I offer a cozy space for naps and play. I can send daily photo and video updates to keep you connected. As a background-checked sitter, I prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. Whether it’s kennel-free dog boarding, walking, or house sitting in Kalispell, I’m here to give your dog tailored care.

About: I have loved animals all my life. I'm a pet empath and have the ability to sense their needs so as to provide the proper care.

I promote pup training and will work hard to reinforce positive behavior, and love trying to teach an old dog new tricks. I have a Newfoundland that I even managed to teach to do a variety of tricks including rolling over! Also, I have had experience with tempermental dogs/puppies that don’t do well with others.

I’m available daily before work (7:45am or earlier) as well as after work (6:00pm or later) and I’m off Friday-Sunday.
