Huge fenced yard in North Valley!
Pet care experience
Hey, pup parents! I’m a Helena native with a serious passion for all things DOG! Training, behavior, nutrition, you name it. I can’t recall a time in my life where I have been without a dog of my own. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, and have taken care of pets for neighbors, friends, and family since I was 10. I have been offering boarding through Rover for just over four years, and I am so pleased to be able to offer our space as a home-away-from-home for your pups! Whether I am dropping in while you are enjoying a night out, or your pups are sleeping over at my place, you can be sure we are having a lot of fun!
Reviews
Our dogs had the best time with Lily! They were so tired from playing in her huge fenced backyard. I really appreciated the frequent updates and good communication that Lily provides.
I contacted Lily about watching our two dogs. She responded quickly to my questions, and fortunately for us, she was able to accommodate the time and date for our all day doggy play date. When we arrived, Lily greeted us with a smile and she was immediately comfortable with our dogs. She showed great care, provided a wonderful space, and the dogs loved playing in her huge backyard. I highly recommend Lily! Catherine D.
Awesome folks, awesome stay, beautiful backyard! I got lots of pictures, had great communication, and they were able to accommodate my pupper when I requested a stay at the last minute! She had so much fun, she's exhausted. Thank you guys lots, Kimber and I look forward to seeing yall again soon!
Maggie always has a blast with Lily! Lily takes excellent care of Maggie, and even got photos of Maggie in bunny ears for Easter! I highly recommend Lily!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pup's safety and comfort are my top priority, so we stick to a strict safety protocol when your pup stays with me. If your pup can be iffy with other dogs, has health or behavioral issues, *please tell me*. No judgement or criticism here - it is incredibly important that I know for the safety and comfort of your dog(s) and mine. I'd even be happy to help you work on training! If your pup is happiest flying solo, I am always happy to accommodate – we have plenty of space and love to give! Some important notes: ♡ I require your pup to be up to date on all vaccinations (I ask that you provide these documents) ♡ All areas of my home are sanitized between guests. ♡ All dogs are separated when unsupervised - indoor and outdoor. ♡ All new guests are on-leash during hikes, until I can guarantee their recall and general obedience are bomb-proof.

Information Lily S. would like to know about your pet
♡ Feeding/medication schedule, allergies, special needs, favorite activities & energy level ♡ Current vaccination status, notable medical issues or concerns ♡ Rules at home (to avoid accidentally allowing a behavior you don't like! i.e. not allowed on bed/couch) ♡ General personality (i.e. dorky puppy, nervous around new people, separation anxiety, not good with other dogs, etc;)
A typical day
I'm comfortable with all breeds and sizes, and have experience with high drive dogs that need plenty of exercise. I love to watch all that drive and energy go into something productive! Your dog(s) will enjoy daily walks, hikes, obedience work, brain games, tug & fetch, and more! Or, if your pup is a couch potato, a senior, or has special needs, we will enjoy a movie cuddled up on the couch!

Availability
I work full time, but I work from home regularly and I have a flexible schedule for drop off, pick up, and mid-day potty breaks/zoomies. I work near most locations in Helena and can make afternoon visits, so your pup will never have to "hold it!" while you are stuck in a meeting and can't make it home at lunch. My husband and I are total homebodies, rarely vacation, and are in town for almost all holidays.
