“Becky is great! My friend dog sitter fell through for NYE, and Becky was available. She met Beau and me on an evening a couple days prior. My mini Aussie Beau has cancer, so he needs to pee about every 4-5 hours due to his meds and drinking a lot of water. I was out of town for the night. Becky made sure to watch him and let him out when needed. She let me know when she left my house, and I could hardly tell she was even there, but my Beau got his treats and bathroom breaks so I know she took good care of him! Meeting Becky, she instant gave me good vibes and I can tell she cares about animals. Highly recommend her!”

“Rhonda has been so great with Oso during her walks with him. He was recently neutered and she cared for him all day the day after his surgery. She has been so kind and gentle with him and Oso loves her! It’s nice that Rhonda has experience as a veteran vet tech to care for our pup.”

“Laura was the best pet sitter for my 2 dogs and 2 cats for in-home care. They all accepted her from the first meeting. She respected everything in the house and though it wasn’t expected had tidied the house before our arrival home making for a great homecoming. I will certainly have her care for the pets again.”

About: I am as die-hard an animal lover as it gets. Name an animal and I am passionate about it. A lot of people in this town love to hunt but I could never do it. You know those princess movies where they sing and all the birds and animals coming running towards her? That’s me. I have worked as a dog sitter for the past 3 years with many many repeat clients and regulars. I worked on and off this app for a year and have worked at the Humane Society and a professional Doggy Boarding business. I value my friendship with each and every one of my dog clients. In the past, I’d load my 4 regulars in the car and we’d go to the local dog park together (with the parents permission of course) and then everyone would get a puppichino afterwards. I pride myself on having open availability and being affordable for the average person. I work part-time so my schedule is easy to work around. My old girl past away about a year and a half ago, she was my childhood dog (she was supposed to be a family dog, but she was always mine. I took her with me when I moved out) so now I only have my one cat, Breakfast. I still feel the urge to hang out with a dog but I don’t think now is the right time to adopt another one, so I love to hang out with other peoples pets to fulfill that need lol. That’s why I’m so passionate about my job. Intrigued? Questions? Concerns? Let me know! I look forward to hearing from you! I work part-time here in town so I have a relatively open-schedule and plan my week with my dog schedule in mind. I have to no problem staying over, dropping by to throw the toy around, or going for an hour walk. I’m very attentive and caring. I may dote on your pets too much even. Its important to me to maintain a patient and understanding attitude when dealing with pets. I always make sure they are clean, fed, and well exercised. Of course they can sleep on my bed or my couch.

“Faith did a great job taking care of our house and two dogs over a holiday weekend. Communication was good, she sent us photos daily, and seemed to enjoy the company of the pups. House looked great when we returned. I will definitely reach out to her in the future.”

“There are not enough words to describe how amazing our experience with Kim was. She stayed with our pups for 3 weeks!! They were so well taken care of, and Kim also went above and beyond to accommodate a service visit from a repair man, as well as running to the post office to retrieve a much needed prescription refill for one of our dogs. She is more capable and responsible than any dog sitter we have ever had!”

“Nathan watched our 2 dogs and cat while we went on vacation for 6 days. We had never used Rover before so we're a little nervous. But he did great and the pets were taken good care of. Updates and pictures were sent many days. Very appreciated. We will be using his services again.”

About: When me and your dog get together, and I’ll drop off your dog. Your dog will tell you how much they enjoyed the excitement and plans, but we did the amount of walks we do in the amount of time to play play fetch go to the dog park go on a run, the amount of snacks that we eat it’s like a dream come true just in dog form. I love my dog and being outside so I will love your dog just as much maybe more! Every day of the week Sunday through Sunday whenever I can play with your dog or changes going on a walk is the perfect time for me. I care for the dog like it’s my dog. Anytime of the daylight and sun is up is when we will be outside and enjoying the sunshine and breeze

About: Services offered: Dog sitting, Cat sitting, other animal sitting, dog walking, dog behavior reinforcement, animal enrichment, basic grooming/sanitary shaving/mat removal, medication administration (oral, IV, IM, SQ), daily routine encouragement, and more! All services are tailored to your pets needs! What sets me apart is my combination of veterinary, shelter medicine, behavior, and hands-on pet care experience. As a current veterinary technician and former Medical Manager at a Humane Society, I bring a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, stress, and emotional well-being than the average pet sitter. My care philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement, patience, and trust-building. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and respected. Whether caring for a playful puppy, an anxious rescue, a senior pet, or a cat who prefers quiet companionship, I tailor my approach to their individual needs and personality. Clear and concise communication with you as the owner, is utmost important when caring for your fur baby! I am experienced with medication administration, senior pet care, behavioral support, and maintaining routines that help pets feel secure while their families are away. My background allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and communicate any concerns promptly. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with compassion, attention to detail, and a commitment to providing a low-stress, enriching experience that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. We’ll start by discussing your pet’s unique needs, routine, and preferences, as well as your expectations for their care. From there, we’ll create a plan that works best for both you and your pet while fitting within my full-time work schedule. I pride myself on being flexible, reliable, and easy to work with. As a veterinary professional, I have the ability to adjust my schedule when needed, including stopping by during the day for potty breaks, medication administration, or check-ins. For overnight care, I can provide visits before and after work to ensure your pet maintains their routine and receives consistent, attentive care. My goal is to make the process as stress-free as possible, providing dependable care and clear communication so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I provide care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home because I believe familiar surroundings are essential to their emotional well-being. Remaining in their normal environment helps reduce stress, anxiety, and disruptions to their routine, allowing them to feel safe and secure while you're away. This is especially important for cats, as changes in environment can often lead to stress-related behaviors and, in some cases, illness. By keeping your pet in their home and maintaining their usual routine, I help create a calm, low-stress experience that supports both their physical and emotional health. Rather than requiring your pet to adjust to a new setting, I come to them. This allows your furry family member to receive personalized, compassionate care where they are most comfortable—right at home. My goal is to provide peace of mind for you and a positive, stress-free experience for your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I currently have four dogs; I have two female German shepherds, a male golden doodle, and a female black Labrador retriever. I have house sat a couple of times with the dogs I own, but I have also house sat for two Rhodesian ridgebacks and two cats regularly. When I am away at school, I volunteer at the Heartland Humane Society in Yankton SD once a week. I play, walk, and enrich all the different dogs in that facility. I currently work part time, usually in the evenings; I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups! I would be able to stop by for potty breaks frequently or go on walks. If overnight services are needed, I would be able to stay overnight and take care of your animal’s needs. I love animals. When I dog or house sit, I hang out with the animals as much as possible. I am vigilant and make sure that they are being properly cared for.

“Joslin is amazing! Our corgi, Porter, is adorable but can be a little sassy at times. Joslin handled him perfectly, and he trusted her so much that he started sleeping in the same room as her. She kept us updated constantly and sent us pictures of our little fellow so we felt relaxed and could enjoy our vacation. She left the house in a beautiful condition, so when we arrived back home we could just spend time with our boy. Thank you Joslin for making the experience so easy and enjoyable!”

“Wonderful as always! The girls were happy to see us, but not more so than if I had just been at work and come home…that’s so comforting!! They were happy and at peace 😀. Thank you Denelle!”

I’m Olivia, and I love caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I live in Rapid City and have experience both in professional animal care and pet sitting. I worked at a veterinary clinic as a receptionist and vet assistant, and I’ve also been a pet sitter since I was a teen. I currently work full-time as a Registered Behavioral Technician and take online college courses, so I’m looking to help with dog walking, drop-ins, or short visits a few hours a week. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and excited to spend quality time with your furry friends while you’re away or busy. I’m happy to provide references from past clients and am comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities! provide personalized care for dogs in their own home to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. During visits, I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, and any special needs, and I make sure to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and positive interaction. I take the time to observe each dog’s personality and mood so they feel secure in their environment. I also clean up after them, refresh water, and make sure their home stays tidy. My goal is to give both the pets and their owners peace of mind knowing they are well cared for in their familiar surroundings.

“I left for a little weekend getaway and felt to relaxed because I knew both my animals were well taken care of. I would definitely have him come stay with my animals again!”
