“danette took wonderful care of my shelly. I was nervous leaving her for the first time but I got lots of updates and pictures. I will definitely be using danette as my go to care for shelly when I need to leave her.”
“We were very pleased with Jessica. She arrived early!! We went sightseeing in Yellowstone and Jessica stayed with our two dogs. She sent a photo of them relaxing with her. We felt very confident leaving them with her. When we returned, the dogs were content and happy. We would absolutely hire Jessica again!”
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.
“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 grew up with dogs and cats since I was born. I can’t have pets where I live so I enjoy taking care of others when the opportunity arises. Since 2017 I've been watching friends’, coworkers’, and neighbors’ pets in Gardiner. My lifetime of growing up with dogs and cats has provided the necessary skills to provide a safe, fun setting to watch others' pets. And let's be honest, they're so much more than "just a dog" or "just a cat." Pets are family and friends. I work full-time, but my work is flexible to the point where I can leave and return at anytime so long as I complete my 40 hours a week. I prefer to show up to the client’s house at least once—sometimes more—before I begin petsitting. This allows the pet to be more comfortable with me and it allows me to learn their routine and the procedures to follow to ensure the best experience for the pet.
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’m currently a counseling student but I have some time between my last job ending and my internship starting. My schedule is quite free for the next month and a half and after that I’ll have a lot of flexibility while working my internship. 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 have a soft spot for dogs of all ages and will care for yours like my own. I love dog snuggles and will provide the best care that your pet deserves. I am at work Tuesday-Friday and can care for your pet in the evening or weekends. I can board at my home or stay at yours. I like to treat pups like part of the family and will do so to yours as well, I will give lots of snuggles if they will let me.
“Erica has been awesome with our dog! We have used her several times already for drop in visits and an in house stay while we were away. We have an active boxer and she took him on long walks/hikes! Would highly recommend using Erica!”
About: I am great at earning dogs trust, and I always make sure they get enough fun! I am also happy to help with some training! I have a flexible schedule so I can work around you and your dogs needs! I am happy to make special accommodations whenever possible. I aim to please! I am happy to take the dogs on walks, to the park, or throw the ball in the backyard! I'll make sure your dog looks forward to future visits!
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: 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: 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.

Michael L.
“Mike is amazing with our dog! We have a stubborn yet sensitive husky mix. We never wanted to travel without him because he gets so stressed boarding that the boarder recommended he not come back. Mike stepped in to house sit and now we look forward to traveling again. We trust Mike completely. He keeps us posted on our dog and really enjoys being with our dog. Our dog loves him too!”
Allie F.
“Allie loves all animals and is a wonderful pet mom herself with 3 dogs and 1 cat. She rescued her pets from the local shelter and wants to ensure all animals have a safe, loving home. She is active with her dogs and makes sure all her pets get daily attention. She would make a wonderful caretaker to anyone’s beloved pet.”

Shawn D.
“Shawn was amazing with my two dogs! I think they may have had a better vacation than we did! They were loved and looked after and we were provided updates each day of our stay.”
Sarah J.
“I used Sarah to look after my dog and my house for a week. She came over twice prior to make sure she was familiar with Moose’s routine and where to find things in the house. She also came the night before I left and stayed till I arrived home. She took such good care of Moose he gets so excited every time he sees her now. She sent me texts, pics and videos every day to keep me up on how things were going. I can’t imagine anyone could do a better job. Will definitely be using her in the future.”
