About: I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood when I was a kid. Now I often take care of my neighbors’ dogs and sometimes board them. I’m an online MBA student, so I’m free to make my own schedule. I work on the weekends and am free most of the week. I love in a house with a fenced yard, have a husky puppy. I allow him on my bed and couch. There’s plenty of space for another dog!

“Zorair was great and helped with a last minute dog walking request. He sent a lot of photos so I knew my dog was well taken care of”

About: I’ve always loved dogs, and I’m excited to have some extra time to give some love to the local doggos! I’ve watched after my own families’ and my neighbors' animals for years. Long walks with a pup or playing tug of war brings me so much joy and I’m prepared to provide whatever care your dog needs. I work full time Wednesday through Sunday but my days aren’t long. I have early mornings for work but I’m always done by early evening so that will always be the best time for me to do any kind of pet care. I’ve done overnight animal watching before and I treat the house and property with the utmost respect. I’ll make sure that the animals get the care that they need when I’m trusted with such an important responsibility.

About: About Me: Hi, I’m Shauna, a dedicated dog lover from the Willow Glen neighborhood in Kalispell! I live on a spacious 1.26 acre of land with a securely fenced backyard, ideal for dogs to run, play, and relax. My 8-year-old Chihuahua and my mom’s 10-year-old Yorkie are my furry sidekicks, and I’ve cared for dogs my entire life. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing home-away-from-home experience for your pup. Inspired by countless hours of César Millan’s Dog Whisperer, I use his positive techniques to encourage balanced behaviors and gently redirect unwanted ones with healthy rules, boundaries and limitations. I’m experienced with dogs’ needs, from managing separation anxiety to maintaining feeding routines to administering medications. 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. Contact me to discuss your pup’s needs and arrange a meet-and-greet! Services: Boarding (Limited Basis): $80/night (includes lots of supervised playtime outside, feeding and cuddles). Drop-In Visits: $25/30-minute visit (feeding, potty breaks, playtime). House Sitting: $75/night (care in your home for 1 house pet. Cost for additional pets negotiable). Dog Walking: $25/30-minute walk (1–2 dogs). Daycare: $45/day (drop-off care for small/medium/large dogs up to 9 hours. Overtime rate $20/hr.) Experience: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, like Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Pomeranians, German Pointers, English Pointers, German Shepherds, Labs, lovable mutts, cats and even horses, including my own pets and those of friends and family. I apply César Millan’s techniques to maintain calm, balanced behaviors and ensure a happy stay. I’m comfortable with special diets and reinforcing training. Availability: See schedule for availability. Boarding available on weekends and select weekdays (book early for holidays). Drop-ins, walks, and daycare offered Monday–Friday, 6 AM–9 PM. House sitting by request. Safety: My acre of land features a secure, fully fenced backyard, and my home is pet-proofed for safety. I send daily updates and follow your pup’s routine to keep them comfortable. My mom and 23 year old son, both avid dog lovers, live with me and will be here for those short times I have to be away. I'm currently working part time and the calendar will reflect my availability. When I am pet-sitting in my home, my mom and 23 year old son who both live with me, will be available if I need to go to an appointment. As I mentioned in my bio, my 1.26-acre property features a secure, fully fenced backyard, and my home is pet-proofed with no toxic plants. I send daily updates via text and follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and safe, kennel-free for comfort.

About: Hello! My name is Chrissy. I work for USDA Wildlife Services as a Conflict Prevention Specialist where I spend most of my days outside building electric fences to protect livestock from bears and wolves in NW Montana. My passion for working with animals began when I was 12 when I showed lambs for my local 4H club. I also raised my own bunnies and practiced my younger dreams to become a veterinarian one day. My experiences have allowed me to grow in my knowledge and care for pets, livestock, and wildlife through administering shots, trimming hooves, banding birds, treating injuries, and more. I am patient and gentle with all animals, so you can rest assured your pet would be in great hands. I thoroughly enjoy helping people. I would love to care for your pet(s) - any size, shape, or color! Let me know if you’re interested, and we’ll get in touch soon! I am currently working full time M-F. Weekends are usually available, and I may be able to make weekdays work depending on how close you are. I am flexible. I will not be able to care for pets in my apartment, but I will gladly take great care of your pets and your home with the proper instructions.

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and can’t imagine it any other way! I grew up with cats and have cared for two family dogs as well. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for about a year, which gave me hands on experience with animal health, behavior, and administering basic care. Currently, I’m in vet tech school, continuing to build my knowledge of animal care. On top of that, I’ve pet sat for family and friends over the years, so I understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable while their people are away. I’m currently stepping back from the workplace to focus on school, which means I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m home most days and can provide consistent care, regular walks, and plenty of attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow any instructions you provide closely, from feeding schedules to medication needs, and make sure your pets stick to their normal routines to reduce stress while you’re away. With my background as a veterinary assistant, I’m confident handling a variety of situations and keeping an eye on your pet’s health and well being. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own, and I’ll always keep you updated with check ins and photos so you have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: In my lifetime I have been surrounded by animals since birth. Chickens, cows, goats, horses, dogs, cats, and sheep. I’ve always had a strong love for animals. I’ve worked in a vet clinic helping my mom as a vet tech. I have done grooming, worked daycare in daycare facilities, and I’ve dabbled in dog training as well. Over my time dog sitting, I have taken care of puppies and senior care dogs and everything in between. I currently work for a lady dog sitting. I don’t get a whole lot of jobs. So I have a lot of free time for other dog sitting jobs. My dogs get fed a cup in the morning and a cup at night but that does not mean that your dog needs to as well. I will follow any schedule you ask me to follow for your furry friend! I take my dogs to the dog park as often as I can! They mostly get to go on the weekends. I definitely prefer to take care of animals in my own home just because I do have a group of my own animals but I understand pets being more comfortable in their own homes. When I have meet and greets placed at my house the energy from my dogs are definitely heightened because they are so excited to meet an new friend but ones they get the hellos out of the way the house environment after that is very calm and quiet. We currently live in a single wide mobile home with 3 bed rooms although one of them is designated to my cats 😂 yes they have their own bed room, yes they are spoiled. Point being there is plenty of space for separation if needed and nap times.

About: Experienced with various breeds. From a Lab-Great Dane mix to tiny Yorkies, I've provided attentive care, exercise, and companionship for a year. Ready to extend this dedication to Rover! I am currently available weekdays from 6 am to 3 pm for walking, feeding, and caring for animals. Ready to accommodate pet needs within this timeframe! Blessed with a massive fenced yard and a nearby dog park, along with scenic paths for walks. Ready to offer pets a fun and safe environment for play and exploration!

“Christina came over as scheduled to walk Zoë while I was out on a long day hike! Will rebook in the future! Thank you Christina :)”

About: Hi, my name is Rachel. I was born and raised in Whitefish, MT, and I’m 32 years old. I’m looking to supplement my income by doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. I grew up with dogs and cats (and sometimes horses), and I’ve also worked as a dog walker in Seattle, where I loved having the flexibility and the chance to stay active outdoors. I’d like to think animals are naturally drawn to me because of my sweet and caring nature. If you choose me as your walker or sitter, I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own. I am currently working part time which makes my schedule more flexible to care to your pets needs. I am available most hours of the day after 9:30 in the morning. While I’m unable to provide in-home boarding at the moment, I’d be happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and secure.

“Caitlin did a great job with Sula! She took care in introducing her own dog to Sula and they became fast friends. Sula looked forward to walking and playing with her new friend each day! I’d definitely recommend Caitlin to others who need help with their fur babies.”

About: I have loved animals since I can remember, we always had cats, dogs, horses, chickens, ducks, and the occasional sheep or pig raised for the fair. Those experiences gave me a great understanding of animal care and responsibilities. I would love to host your fur-babies in my home (or come to yours). It’s just my husband and I and our two very active Idaho Shag dogs Odie and Pickles that are basically my children. Odie’s whole personality revolves around THE BALL so lots of fetch, outdoor time, going for walks, belly scratches, and treats happen in our house. I can accommodate whatever your dog is used to make their stay as stress free as possible and will ask you for any do’s and don’ts for their care, activity level, and training. I am experienced giving medications orally or intravenously, senior dog care, grooming and training. I do work a traditional 9-5pm job in a professional setting, but am very flexible, and go home for mid-day breaks. My schedule in the evening and weekend is flexible, just message me to see if I can accommodate. I own two very active Idaho Shag dogs, Odie an Pickles. They are free to roam in the home and on furniture, but also have a crate available for your pet if needed, or can crate mine. We are on a 2 acre, mostly fenced property adjacent to horse pastures If your pet has issues with livestock, or wanders please let me know and I can adjust my care as needed.

About: I've had pets my whole life and have taken care of them from an early age. I love all animals and believe they deserve a comforting experience if their owner is gone.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats all my life, of all breeds and sizes, but especially large dog breeds. I love being outdoors and experiencing nature with a canine companion; I would love to take your dog on a walk or hike in the area! I have my own car so I’m able to travel around the area if needed. Feel free to contact me with any questions you have! -Drew I’m currently only working a few days a week so have a very flexible schedule. I do plan on doing a lot of trips- but as long as I have notice of when you need me I can work around that. I’m a very trustworthy person, and have experience caring for animals that aren’t necessarily my own. I’ve fostered both dogs and cats, and house and pet sit for family and friends often. I will respect you and your home completely.
