Dog Walking Indian Arrow

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and I’ve always loved it! I’ve walked dogs, played with cats, fed fish, and even helped care for more exotic animals. I also worked at a vet clinic for a year and a half, which gave me extra experience and knowledge about animal behavior, health, and how to notice when something might not be quite right. I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a fairly flexible schedule and am happy to work with you to find times that work best for you and your pet. I usually recommend checking in on pets twice a day for meals, care, and some socialization. However, I am more than willing to check in more often if your pet needs it or if it would give you peace of mind while you’re away. I feed my own cat twice a day, but I am happy to follow each owner’s feeding schedule and provide more frequent meals if needed. I always respect an animal’s space if they do not want to be pet or play, while still giving them gentle encouragement and attention if they seem lonely or down. I have also given pet owners updates about their animals, including photos and videos, so they can feel connected and know their pets are doing well while they are away.

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve had dogs, fish, and a gecko! I have souse/pet sat for dogs as well as cats previously. I’m currently in college and able to stop by throughout the day and stay overnight when needed. I mainly have classes in the mornings so amd free the rest of the day. I am unable to have the dogs stay at my house as I am in an apartment. But I can feed and walk animals, make sure they have some time to play outside and outside of kennels if they stay in one.

About: Since 10 years ago I’ve enjoyed giving attention to dogs and cats and making them feel happy, active, safe, and giving the attention they want. I am self employed and sole business owner so jumping to a dog or cat need is easy for my schedule. I have high accountability and professionalism being a financial entrepreneur and loving dogs and cats as a side hobby here. I scan the environment and see what they like to do, I watch their behavior and compliment it or help guide them for behavior or their needs. Studying them and then making sure they feel happy, active, safe, and attention given!

About: I’ve never lived a day of my life without at least one dog in it. I’ve cared for my own, my neighbors and family. I worked for a dog daycare and boarding facility. I’ve administered medications including injections. I love to take them for walks, have play time, or just snuggle on the couch. I will treat your pup as if it were my own. I live in Billings but also frequent the Roberts, Joliet, and Red lodge areas, so consider me for overnights if you are out in that area. I work from home part time and am able to create my own schedule. This would be a fun and rewarding way to get out if the house. My dogs sleep in bed with me, but I would have your pets sleep wherever they are used to. I like to keep feeding on a regular schedule. 8am for breakfast and 6pm for dinner. I like to go for walks around 4, again keeping a schedule. Since I would be staying in your house, if you want, your pets would keep to whatever their regular routine is.

“Very reliable, kind, and assuring. Never felt worried about our pup while Kendall was there. Traveled out of town and quickly learned that we could rest easy knowing she would be there on time to give some genuine love to our pup. Very flexible with scheduling and easy to work with. 10/10 dog walker experience.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and wouldn’t trade a moment of it. I believe dogs are truly part of the family and deserve all the love, attention, and care we can give them. I’m generally available on weekends and can often make weekdays work as well. Whether your dog needs a jog, a peaceful walk, a dependable caregiver while you’re away, or just regular updates to put your mind at ease, I’m here to help. I can also provide trips to the groomer or vet upon request. Please feel free to reach out with any questions — I’d be happy to chat! Even with my full-time job, I structure my day to include feeding, walks, play, and check-ins, making pet care a consistent and enjoyable part of my daily routine. I follow each pet’s routine, providing fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. In your home, I follow your instructions to keep your pet comfortable and safe.

“Michael is great! Benji enjoys the one on one personal care. I always feel my dog is in goods hands with Michael.”

Requests for boarding are carefully screened for various safety criteria. We are surrounded by a big irrigation ditch & wonderful trails, which are a lot of fun for swimmers, but obviously comes with responsibility and is not a good fit for all dogs. Dogs will be exposed to ticks, field grass, potential obstacles in the water, other walkers in the area, and light traffic. It is essential that we are all a good match before agreeing to board. Dogs must follow basic commands & have excellent recall despite wildlife distractions. Therefore, we do require a scheduled Meet & Greet with your dog on our property prior to accepting a boarding. Thank you for your understanding! I look forward to meeting you and your treasured friends! Insured through Pet Care Insurance, PCI I am self employed and work from home with a flexible schedule.

I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or mine, if nearby. There are excellent walking trails and parks on the west end available to explore. We do not visit dog parks for health & safety reasons. ** Our property is not fenced, therefore, boarding is determined on an individual basis and your animal assessed to ensure a safe stay. ** I'm perfectly content to play & care for your animals according to your schedule and needs. I'll ask for clear instructions from you and that all supplies are readily available for use so we can maximize our bonding time.
