About: I have always loved animals and love being around them. I have worked on a couple farms in the last couple of years and was a “dog nanny” for a few about half a year I’m currently going into my Junior year of college and part time employed. I am free majority of the time and if away from home can easily come back to check on pets/hang out with them! I take them out to go to the bathroom as much as they need and will walk the dog multiple times a day. Can keep any schedule any pet in my care.
“Taylor went above and beyond! Sent regular updates and photos and handled our 4 big dogs like a champ! Will definitely use her again, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
About: Growing up with animals has taught me the importance of their care and well being. They are all so unique, why we love them so! I work for myself in Bozeman, therefore I have a very flexible schedule. I am available seven days a week, all time of the day! I have a very large yard right on the trails. We are close to streams for swimming and Peet’s hill for socializing, we stay entertained!
“Kelsie was the best sitter for our boys! She sent picture updates frequently and did a great job following our care instructions. I could tell the dogs loved her!”
About: With years of hands-on experience, I care for pets of all breeds and ages-from playful 8-week-old puppies to senior dogs up to 20 years old. I grew up with a variety of animals and truly love doing it. I’m kind, patient, dependable, and treat every pet like family. Whether it’s a quick walk, playtime, or overnight care, I’m here to help your pet feel safe and loved! I am a new teacher who has their summer open and would love to spend free time with helping adorable animals. I want to spend more time outside and taking care of others. While I don’t currently have my own pets at home I want to respect clients home and rules. The first thing I do is understand the clients rules and routines and how they work with their pet. I want to know how they expect me to work with their pet. I want to make sure that the client feels comfortable knowing that I’m taking care of them when dog sitting in their home, having a playdate with them, or taking them for walks.

“Hilton did a great job taking care of our Piper. He sent daily updates with pictures- which we loved! I arrived home to a content dog and the house was clean and in order. Would definitely recommend Hilton and will be happy to seek him out again for our dog sitting needs.”
“Delaney was so wonderful with our dogs! We had never left them for a full week, so I was nervous about this. She was very communicative and gave plenty of updates. I could tell our dogs were comfortable and happy through the pictures and videos she would send. She stayed in our apartment and also left it spotless. I would highly recommend booking Delaney next time you need a dog sitter!!!”
