“Gianna is AMAZING - we worry about leaving our “baby”, and she was so reassuring and sent plenty of updates and pictures. She has a beautiful property for dogs to run and play. We never worried about our guy at all. She will definitely be our go-to person from now on!!”

About: I have had pets all of my life including dogs, cats, leopard geckos, and fish. I love animals and have been trusted to watch friends and family pets for as long as I have been able. I think pets are important family members and I am excited to care for your critters! I love their personalities and getting to know them I have experience with elderly pets, pets with medical needs, young pets, and exotic pets. I work a normal M-F schedule and am available before and after work! have a dog, cat and leopard gecko of my own who are all very friendly. I can work around your schedule I will not allow boarding in my home for cats because I think there’s too much of an adjustment period. But I am very willing to do drop ins! Dogs that are friendly with cats and are crate trained can board at my home. I will only allow one family at a time with two dogs maximum. I can come to your home and do drop ins or walks during the day

About: I have grown up with dogs, owned (and currently own) a dog, and absolutely LOVE them as my own. We have an enclosed dog run with a dog door onsite. They are spoiled beyond measure and treated better than a family member. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to spend quality time with your pet! I am available on weekends and holidays, as well as weekdays depending on notice. I have a fenced in dog run with a dog door. I can easily crate your dog if that is helpful to his/her routine. I do have 2 dogs onsite but can keep them separate if needed. We live on 3 acres and walk our dogs every day! They are Family!

“Ally was wonderful with my pups. My dogs are overly enthusiastic when meeting new people and dogs and she was very patient with the introduction so that no one got hurt. She sent pics of my dogs settled in (taking over) her house - they both seemed right at home with her and Sampson (her dog). I will definitely be looking her up when I find myself in the Black Hills area.”

“Hector and Sofia have now welcomed and cared for my 2-year-old dog, Wilson, three times this year. Most recently, they stepped in on very short notice for a last-minute trip I had to Baltimore, and I can’t express how grateful I am for their hospitality and flexibility. I know Wilson is always in good hands with them – they treat him with such love and care. I highly recommend Hector and Sofia to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters. Thank you both again for everything!”

About: My family has had a dog since I was in high school and I have been around dogs ever since. I am here to help. I work full time and I am home every night so will have plenty of time to go for a walk or play with your pets. I have a good size fenced in yard to let the pets go play and have fun with toys or I like going for hikes and can take them with!

So nice to have Candice and Cody available to take care of Stella. She had a great time harassing their other dogs and playing with all the “new” toys. Apparently she is worn out, still snoring away this morning! Highly recommend Candice if you need a great place for your furry buddy to stay!

This dog sitter a decent sized backyard with dogs of their own. They allow pups on the trampoline and that is enjoyable for my dog. The couple seems very loving! We received pictures and updates "from our dog," about his time there and how much he missed us. It seems like he had fun and was well taken care of!
