“Cassie was absolutely amazing with Clover. Sharing lots of photos and updates during my stay at Big Sky. She is also just kind and professional. Would recommend without hesitation.”
“Taisiia was great with watching our senior dog for the 5 days we were on vacation in Big Sky! She provided updates and pictures every few hours and we were never concerned with how our pup was doing. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter in Big Sky!!!”
“Tori was a great find. I had two dog sitters to bridge week vacation and Tori went beyond normal service by helping with pick up and drop off with dog sitter #1. Ladybug was comfortable in her place.”
“Lauren was fabulous! She’s an awesome communicator & sent regular updates & photos :) I was stressed leaving my dog for a week with someone new, she eased my mind! Would definitely use her again!”
“Alison is the absolute best!! Her and her family are absolutely wonderful and from our first meeting we could tell she loves what she does and it shows so much in how much all the dogs, including our own dog Nunu, love her. It had been a long time since we had to leave Nunu and we really needed someone to trust to take good care of Nunu and thats exactly what we got with Alison. She communicated so much with so many pictures and updates. I still felt so connected with our dog and it helped immensely with the fact that we missed him so much. She went above and beyond in every way and even accommodated for his very detailed diet plan. We were so grateful that Alison was able to make her home Nunu’s home and give Nunu some new furry friends as well. It was such a great experience, we will definitely be using her sitting services again and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs boarding for their pet!”
“Katy took amazing care of my pup! She sent frequent updates, was very responsive, and attentive to all of my dog’s needs. Definitely would board with her again!”
About: I absolutely adore dogs my favorite breed is golden retrievers I have one at home named ivy rose. I’ve had a dog ever since I was born and they have always been my pride and joy and I’ve always looked for a way I can help other while not only getting paid but doing it with animals I love. I bring top notch care, respect, loyalty, and perfection when it comes to doing whatever service I may be able to assist you in. Thanks for checking out my profile! As of right now during the summer I’m completely free and I will be going into college as well. I have a really open schedule and can fit almost anything and work around almost anything’s I have a very safe household that’s quiet and cool and is super easy to play in or be comfortable in as well as a GIANT grass field just right outside my door if your dog loves to play catch or run they will be in heaven.
“Barley had a great time with Ava - happy & tired out by all the fun she had. Great communication & updates. I highly recommend Ava for taking good care of your pup.”
“Samantha is so kind and easy to work with! She clearly takes pet care seriously and makes you and your pet feel very comfortable.”
“Bella was amazing and took great care of Yukon for 8 days, while we were on vacation! She kept me updated and sent pics. She was very sweet and patient with Yukon (he can be a bit hyper and barks a lot). Thank you Bella!! :)”
“Our dog Lola had another wonderful stay with Sarah and her family. Lola is an older sensitive gal, and Sarah is attentive to Lola's needs by spreading extra rugs around the house, and allowing Lola to sleep upstairs in their room. Sarah also takes Lola out on walks, no matter the weather, to keep Lola's old bones moving. Lola settles in easily at Sarah's, and is always relaxed and happy when I pick her up. Finally, Sarah is very easy to communicate with and always responds right away to my communications.”
“Emma was an amazing sitter for my pup, Crouton! I had to go out of town last minute for a few days and Emma was thankfully available. Crouton got along really well with her pup, Nova. I got ample updates and pictures. Crouton seemed so happy during her stay, I would definitely rebook with Emma again!”
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was born. I have cared for very old dogs to puppies that were months old. I’m willing to work with any type of dog to make the experience fun and safe for both the pet and you. I currently only have classes Tuesday and Thursdays that start around 9 AM and end at 1:30 PM. I have more than enough time to play with our furry friends Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and some Sundays. I am also more than open to walking or watching animals after my classes! I excel at following instructions and keeping pets on a consistent schedule, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. In my home, pets always have access to fresh water, toys, belly rubs, and plenty of playtime. My roommates also love pets and are happy to help provide extra attention. I prioritize socialization by regularly taking my dog to the dog park and will give the same level of care and affection to any pet entrusted to me. Owners can feel confident knowing their pets will be treated like family in my care.
“I was so nervous to leave my puppy for the first time, but my pup had an excellent time with Cherri and her dog! Cherri was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely book with her again if I come back to town.”
“Diedra was fantastic. Great communication and flexible working with us when our flight was delayed. She watched our very active 1 y.o. GSP and Ridgeback puppy. Both had a great time with her and the other dogs and we felt they were in great hands over a long weekend. Highly recommend!”
“Gina did an amazing job watching my near 9 year old dog, Buddy! She took him on many walks and cared for him like he was her own. I was reassured by lots of photos and quick responses whenever I communicated with her. I would absolutely want her to watch Buddy again in the future! Thank you, Gina!”
“Joe was an incredible dog sitter for our pup Ranger. We got so many daily updates and pictures of many walks and trips to the dog park, and Ranger especially had a blast playing with Joe’s sweet dog Ellie. We would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking to board their dog in the Bozeman area!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals…Dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and birds! I’ve taken care of all sorts of breeds and sizes as well! I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a college student looking to help! I’ll be working part time in college! Looking for some pets to watch and also get some exercise in on walks or throwing a ball around! I’ll be up to walk your dogs, play with your pets and anything else! I love animals and being at college means I can’t have my own right now.
“Katie was amazing! She sent so many photos of Willow while we were away and Willow definitely made herself right at home. Katie was so easy to communicate with and so fast to reply!”
“Our 8lb lap dog hung out with Teigan for the day and had a really nice time roaming the farm, cuddling, and meeting new friends (cat, chickens, and her friendly dog). Little Luna had a great time - came home to us tired and well cared for.”
