“Judith did an excellent job! So nice to go on vacation and not have to worry about whether my fur babies are being cared for properly. My dogs loved her! Will definitely use her in the future.”


2. Jaden W.

“She was great with Pheobe. She even stayed an extra night last minute when we couldn’t get home.”




3. Caitlin D.

“Caitlin did a great job watching Simba while we were away. She sent me pics and took great care of him. She even gave him walks which he loves even through he sniffs more than he walks. Thank you Caitlin for making Simba feel comfortable when we were away. I would recommend Caitlin!!”


4. David B.

“David is fantastic! Our dogs really love David and he was awesome with sending us a lot of updates with pictures. We're pretty obsessed with our dogs, despite their little quirks which makes going away for us pretty difficult and David was wonderful with putting our minds at ease while we were away. He was very proactive with setting up a time to come meet us and our pups and I knew from his kind demeanor that he would be great. He asked us a lot of great questions that I didn't even think about, so I knew he was careful with the details of our dogs. We will definitely book with David again and I highly recommend him!”


5. Brittany S.

“Brittany was a hit with our Sheltie from the very first meet & greet! She kept me updated on how they were doing. Which is a blessing especially when you are out of town attending a funeral. You definitely do not want to worry about your fur babies!”

18. Nalyn P.
About: I have a pup of my own! I have worked at a boarding/daycare facility, feeding, letting out, and bathing dogs of all breeds and sizes, with the occasional cat, bunny, lizard, and even a parrot! I have also worked as a dog walker and sitter for a company in Kansas City, the best job i've ever had, but unfortunately had to move back home to Montana. My schedule included 30 minute walks, driving pups to dog parks and watching them play, staying overnight at clients' houses to care for their dogs (and sometimes cats) while they were away, and falling in love with all the pups that I was working with! I am currently available anytime I am needed! I'm very flexible and will be able to accommodate your requests, as I would like this to be a full time job!! I will treat your pet as if they were my own, lots of love and affection, as well as the high pitched voice they all love so much! I can follow your requests for their care, send lots of pictures and pupdates, and for walks, I will let you know when I arrive, and I have an app that shows where we walked and the exact time that I spent with your pup that I will screenshot and send to you at the end with the pupdate! My pupdates usually include whether they went potty or not, some little anecdotes from our time together, and lots of cute emojis🐾

My family all loves animals and we take great care of them and treat them as if they were family.

“Karcey spent a nice long weekend with my pup and took wonderful care of her. She was very attentive to my dogs needs and also made an effort to make sure my dog had fun.
