2 Hour Daily Hikes, Cage Free Stays

Pet care experience

Please read my entire profile and review my pick up and drop off times! Pick ups and drop offs are by appointment only. Please note if messaging after 9pm I will respond to you the following day! Also Rover makes you contact multiple sitters. That doesn't mean you need to take the first to respond. Ask questions and find the best fit for your pets! I provide cage free /stress free boarding in My home. I carry Private Pet Care Insurance and I am also licensed in the state of Montana to do business. All guests get to go on daily off leash group hikes for 2 hours then come home & play all day. (Some rules apply please see bottom) My goal is to ensure they are happy, having fun, are not stressed or anxious and go home tired. Group hikes take place on 80 acres of land I rent, so the dogs are walked in a controlled environment. Never around unknown dogs. During the winter we do take advantage of other lands as well. I am a full time pet sitter taking care of people's pets in their own home. If that fits your pets needs better. I will make multiple visits daily to ensure they are cared for. I do not use kennels unless the pet requires one. All guests get multiple walks during their stay at. NO extra cost to you I currently do not board puppies under the age of 6 months. I have a lot of experience with elderly and special needs pets. I am experienced in rehab care, post surgery care, dementia and giving subcutaneous fluids, diabetic shots and medications. All dogs are cared for as if they were my own. They may sleep with me or wherever they would like to rest. They get lots of attention, walks and car rides! I also love lizards and have 3 snakes a bearded dragon and a crested gecko and have experience caring for all the scaly creatures! I own K9 Playtime Pet Sitting and have been a Professional Pet Sitter/Group Dog Walker/Private Boarder since August of 2006 with a solid client base and great reviews. I am Licensed * Bonded and privately Insured Find me on Facebook!!! To see all our fun adventures! I require at minimum 3 days notice for meet and greets. I operate out of my home (we are not a facility but a home where we live) and schedule meet and greets around my families schedules. Thank you for understanding Group hike rules Dogs must have decent recall. Please remember these hikes are OFF leash. I do allow the dogs to romp and run on private land and take all precautions that they do not run off which is why they need some recall. If you tell me they are good off leash I am trusting you on that. If your dog does run off I will take all effort to locate them, which in The area is a large field with a ravine and the dogs have an absolute blast running and hiking. It’s a lot of acreage to explore. Just understand that with that freedom there is also risk. I take all necessary precautions when on these outings but I can’t prevent everything. Ie: Coming across a skunk 😂 owners must understand and acknowledge that there is always risk involved when allowing freedom of being off leash. Dogs must be good in a car. Meaning they don’t shred the seats or try to escape out the door. Dogs CAN NOT be in heat or aggressive I do not allow intact males at this time and the area we wander is only me and the dogs. No one else as it is private land that I have permission to use Have a look thru my photos and see all the fun to be had!!! I am home based and provide care for your pets 24/7 unless I have to step out for a quick errand. Dogs will never be alone for more than one hour which is very rare. I provide pet care full time and do not have another job to worry about. Your dogs will be cared for as if they were my own! We get up and take a 2 hour off leash hike every day first thing to burn their energy off! The ONLY way to start a day! Rain sleet or snow.. We Go! My basement is huge and open with water proof floors and couches for the pups! I do have a dog door for their use as well. The upstairs is where they all like to hang out. My front door is gated off so they can not escape when we come and go. Also monitored with cameras and a security system For outings I have a huge passenger van to tote them around in and am converting a short bus for their comfort to go hiking. I carry private insurance and am licensed with the state. Drop off/ Pick up Please contact me with your itinerary for special drop off times and I will do my best to accommodate. I realize rover lets you pick drop off and pick up times but having people coming and going all day everyday gets the dogs all worked up and i am not always available for drop off and pick up. Even though I am with the dogs nearly 24/7 I just can not accommodate everyone else’s schedules and people showing up late Drop off times are between 6:45-7am or 5:30-6:30pm Pick up times Between 6:45-7am 5:30-6:30pm If these times do not work for you please contact me and I will try and make special arrangements but if that can not be done your pups will need to be dropped off the night before or picked up the following day. Thank you for understanding I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am a full time pet sitter. I am with your pup 24/7! This is my entire life ❤️ I have even taken guests camping!! I do not crate your pet unless crating is requested or the pet is being destructive.
