Pet care experience

Dogs are family

I have one dog Bonnie, she is a bulldog heeler mix and is the love of my life. I couldn't imagine not having her. I regularly watch my sister's dog Denali and my brothers dog Brimley. Each one has their own special personality and that each dog has its own seperate like and dislikes. Bonnie for one, is a total love bug but has her issues with reactivity when it comes to other dogs. I still make sure she has a rich full life. She has made friends finally with several other dogs through several dog training session. Denali is a tree climbing always ready to go kinda dog. To keep her happy when I'm watching her we head off to the many different trails around Missoula to make sure she gets her energy out. Brimley is an older heeler who ignores other dogs but sticks to your side everywhere you go. He enjoys his long walks as well. In the past I've done drop bys for people and taken their dogs out for walks and several house-sitting experiences that were longer than a week. I work in dowtown Missoula and have hour long lunch breaks that I use to walk dogs on. I work a typical work week but make time for taking care of pets.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for a dog in someone else's home, I like to try to learn and keep as close to the routine schedule you already have for your pet to make them feel comfortable and happy.

My mind was at ease knowing Louise was taking care of my Bennie. I've never used a service like this before, but now Im confident I can leave him alone without any worries. Thank you again!

Louise was phenomenal at taking care of our pups and she went above and beyond when one of our dogs was having medical issues. I cannot recommend her enough!

Louise was great with our doggos who aren’t always the easiest for new sitters! She was kind, responsive, and we came home to happy pups. Thanks, Louise!
