Rock Creek Pet Sitting!

Pet care experience

For many of us, our four-legged friends aren’t just pets, they’re family. I was raised to believe that our animals should be cared for, loved and respected, and having this mindset over the course of my life has given me a rapport with dogs and cats. Having my own dog, I can relate to the pet owner who feels guilty about leaving their dog(s) at home all day during working hours. With my services, you can rest assured that your pup will be physically and mentally entertained, so you can come home to a happy, healthy pet. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house/pet sitting, or a combination of these. I am also happy to cat-sit as well. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests, and I hope I can help you and your pets!

Really kind people. Accommodated with my travel delays and treated my dog great.

John was wonderful to work with, seemed like a very genuine and nice person. He even went above and beyond and got my boys boarding when things didn’t go as planned as my pups were acting naughty. Everything was very smooth and seamless and now I know of another great boarder in town. I’d highly suggest John to watch anyones dogs :)

John was great and Bella had a great time while she was with him. Lots of playtime and attention.

There is no doubt that our dog, Dan, would rather stay with John than with us. John is a lot more fun than us, especially from the perspective of a dog. John is truly a dog lover. His family has owned multiple dogs since he was a toddler. And he is truly a cat lover as well. He owned a cat, who adopted him, for many years. John is truly an animal lover in general. He has funny voices and nicknames for every animal he knows. In the summers, John works at a fly shop, and he gives every dog in the store--whether just passing through or hanging out there all day--a huge amount of attention, and interacts with them more than most others would. He truly loves dogs and cats and it is in his nature to give them the attention they need. This is why it was natural to think of John when we started traveling more often. And it wasn't long before it became clear to us that Dan relished his time with John. He would get so excited when we started getting his overnight things together, and as we made the drive to John's house. And, while Dan was certainly happy to see us when we came to pick him up, his first night at home was always spent looking very pouty and bored. It's obvious that John is Dan's favorite person (perhaps other than his parents, perhaps not--we're not sure). I think that says more than anything could about how well John cared for our dog.

I live and work at Rock Creek not far from Missoula. It’s a great country-side setting for dogs with lots of public land, trails, and of course the creek itself.
