Dog Walking Three Forks

About: Family has had a variety of pets since I was a kid and we used to live on a farm - fish, dogs, cats, goats, horses, pigs, chickens. My dog passed a few years back now and current housing situation doesn’t allow pets so I love to love on other people pets whenever I get the chance. I have some experience in ailing dog care; my old dog, Kane, passed away from cancer. At the end he needed help getting outside to the bathroom, eating and kept a close eye on for discomfort. I am a small business owner with a pretty flexible schedule. I also live close to downtown so it’s convenient for me to get almost anywhere within Bozeman city limits. If caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow the laid out normal routine for your pet giving extra love and affection as I know it can be distressing for pets when their family leaves.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I have experience in dogs, cats, birds, and even game animals such as cows, goats, and chickens! I currently work at night and substitute teach sometimes, so I am pretty available during the day. I only work for about 4-5 hours at night, so it should not be a problem caring for pets. I am very comfortable with younger pets and have no problem taking care of them or crate training them if needed. I also love to play and go on walks, so they will get outside plenty!

“Jewelia is so very good. Gives great feedback when asked, especially with a dog healing from surgery. Love using her for our dog walks.”

About: Experience volunteering at a humane society, walking, bathing, and loving all pets. We have a Chesapeake Bay Retriever with bird and water training. I’m skilled in hunting commands (verbal and hand signaling) as well as e-collar training. We also have a French Bulldog meaning I have additional training with small stubborn dogs who need extra patience and snuggles. I’m a stay at home mom to a very active one year old. My son and I love to walk and fetch with our two pups and would love to help other families as well. Being a stay at home mom means I have a ton of flexibility throughout the week and weekend! I am currently not offering boarding or in home care at this time. For drop-in visits you can expect your home in the exact same or better condition upon your return.

About: I have not lived a single year without a dog. I have had all different kinds of pets and think Rover is an awesome way to keep them active and loved!! I am able to pull heavy dogs and have had experience with dogs of all ends of the discipline spectrum. I am almost 24 and recently moved to Bozeman from Virginia. I have a 9 month old German Shepard and have had my own personal dogs for the last 4 years. I work remotely and am extremely flexible with schedule. I've trained multiple puppies and taken classes on this as well. I am currently working FULL-TIME REMOTE! So i have all the time necessary to take care of your animals when needed and spend extra time with them. I have an energetic puppy myself who loves other animals. We are outdoors constantly and I am well seasoned in ensuring the safety of your animal. I have great experience leash training as well, and am more than willing to incorporate this if the client would like!

About: I've been an animal lover and pet companion my entire life. I worked in veterinary hospitals previously and have achieved the highest possible volunteer status at Heart of the Valley Animal Shelter. I am experienced in working with animals from a wide range of backgrounds and needs, and I pride myself in providing care that keeps your furry family members safe and comfortable. I am an excellent communicator and very dependable, so you will never be left feeling in the dark or wondering what’s going on while your pet is in my care. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds as well as cats, rabbits, reptiles, rodents, fish, horses, chickens, and goats. I am comfortable and experienced caring for seniors, pets with special needs, allergies and dietary restrictions, and pets that require medication. I hope that my experience with an array of animals of varying medical and behavioral profiles leaves you feeling confident that your family members are in good hands with me! I work remotely, making me capable of caring for your pet(s) in your home or my own. I have flexibility with my schedule, so I can accommodate most feeding, exercise, and break routines your pets are used to! I have a fenced yard on 1/3 of a acre, live in a quiet neighborhood near a paved trail, and am half a mile away from a small local dog park. Our pets are part of our family, and your pet is, too, while in my care! My two dogs and three cats are all allowed on furniture and beds. We separate everyone for feeding (and as needed when there are furry guests staying with us), and each animal in my home or that I care for experiences lots of snuggles, play time, exercise, and plenty of peace and quiet as well.

“Olivia was punctual and very communicative! Ruby had a wonderful walk and could tell she got a ton of exercise and was ready for a nap! I will be using Olivia again for more walks and house sitting, highly recommend!”

“Katelynn is an amazing person! She is SO loved by my dogs and myself! She is reliable, always helps me in a pinch and has charmed and loved my pups beyond expectations!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs , cats, horses and many more animals for years. I’ve also owned dogs and cats for many years and take pride in my ability to love and care for animals. I’m available when you need someone to care for your animals. I work, but that doesn’t stop me from taking care of animals. As an owner I understand the importance of animals and care needed for them. I’m always at dog friendly places where they can run and get all that energy out, I train on ecollars and have worked well for me, no dog has ever been harmed in my care and I take such pride in that.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have one cat of my own (a Maine Coon/DMH mix). I have spent approximately 5 years working front desk for both veterinary day practice and veterinary urgent care. Working in urgent care trained me in many things including symptoms to look out for and gave me the knowledge to identify when an urgent medical situation has arisen. I'm very patient with shy dogs, having previously adopted one myself. I am comfortable administering oral medication, insulin injections and even ear medication for pets whoa re reasonably well-behaved with receiving them. As of the week of April 18th I'll be working a regular day job again. Eventually this will mean I work from 7 am until 5:30 or 6 pm Monday through Thursday, though it won't be full-time initially. This would leave petsitting pets alone at home for almost 12 hours. Please feel free to check in with me regarding my schedule if your pet(s) cannot be alone for so long and you'd rather not find someone to do a home visit during the day. Pet sitting usually involves me staying at your home from roughly 5-7pm until around 8-9 am. My rate includes as many bathroom breaks as your pup needs and a short walk in the morning and evening (around 10 mins). One trip back to your house during the day for an additional potty break is included. If your pet requires more potty breaks or long walks please also book those when you request pet sitting. I am available for walks or in-home visits. Walks will generally be in your neighborhood. I'm happy to pack of your well behaved pooch for a trip to a hiking trail or park as well, just please consider that transit time and book accordingly if you'd like me to do so. When staying at a client's home I make sure the pet is my priority. I want to make sure pets who are used to receiving lots of love and attention don't feel too depressed without their owners home. If that means your dog sleeps on top of me at night then more cuddles! Have a yard? Let's go out in it and play! Does your cat live for getting pets for the first hour you're awake? Want to be left alone? Need some quality laser pointer time in the evenings? Done! My goal is to give your pooch or kitty a friend to hang out with so they don't get lonely! But if they like being independent and just want someone to be alone together with them that's totally fine too!

About: Hi! I’m Tara — a lifelong animal lover with a heart for senior pets, pups with special needs, and those with unique quirks. I’ve been living and working with dogs (and cats!) my whole life, and I’ve built some wonderful relationships on Rover always treating every pet like family. Located near the Bozeman airport, my home is an animal-friendly haven with cozy bedrooms, a large fenced yard for playtime, and two friendly resident pups, Oliver and Bailey, who love making new friends. I’m experienced with training, medication routines, and giving pets the extra patience and TLC they need to feel safe and happy. *Please enquire about extended stay or regular client discounts.* Whether your pet needs a comfy place to stay or just a little extra attention, I’ve got you covered — with love, play, and peace of mind. 🐶🐱💕 I am open to last minute plans, one time, as well as having regular guests. * Doggy Day Care is a 12 hour window from 7 am to 7pm, if you need longer daycare we can possibly modify for up to an additional 3 hours ( please enquire.) Naturally, all pets get treated like family. Whether at my home, or a clients home, everyone gets the attention and care they deserve. The innocent, precious nature of animals, especially one that is a part of a family holds an immeasurable value.

About: I have been dog and house sitting since I was 16 years old. I have vast experience sitting for many clients and for long periods of time of up to a month at times. Very dependable and very flexible and accommodating schedule. I currently work part time so my schedule is very open and have no problem staying at the home if you wish. I can also do chores or other jobs around the house while you are gone too. I have a 4 year old mini schnoodle named Bodie who is my baby boy! I love taking him on hikes and walks and playing with his favorite toys!

About: I have taken care of my own personal rescue for over 5 years, as well as was raised with a family dog my entire childhood, teenhood and into adulthood. I have house it and pet sit since a young age for neighbors, as well as for my own family. My sister also is the Hospital Administrator at PETS emergency vet in Bozeman. God forbid any sort of issue arised, I am one phone call away from immediate vet help. i am currently seeking to make dog walking my full time job. I have a free range schedule to take care of, walk, or house sit. I walk my personal dog 6-8 times a day, hikes, nature walks, and open field play sessions. I have chew toys and tug toys I use at home for additional stimulation. I am able to bring toys or would be willing to bring a toy if needed.

About: I have worked with children and animals since I was old enough to handle the responsibility. I grew up in a typical suburb in St. Louis, Missouri and always helped watch neighbors pets and children and have done it through college, post college, and presently speaking. I am extremely reliable and timely. I treat others loved ones as my own. I don’t have any allergies to pet hair or dander. I have regular clients through word of mouth and am looking to add a few to my roster. I love watching all types of animals! I currently volunteer at Heart of the Valley animal shelter in Belgrade, MT offering enrichment, walks, and sleepovers to pups that need some extra love. I also foster through Prairie Song Rescue in Wilsall, MT. I might have a foster pup at my house. I only watch well socialized, nonreactive pups. I work for myself and make my own schedule but also work a part time job at the airport. I have a lot of flexibility and love spending time with animals and being outdoors. My dogs are very friendly and love to play. I am very active. If you request house sitting I can’t be there 24/7. I enjoy hiking everyday and hope your dogs can come with me. I understand some folks want their dogs to stay at their home. I just want to share I will still need to be gone parts of the day taking care of my dogs as well as other daily life tasks and my part time job. I prefer boarding at my home overall but can accommodate house sitting. I live in downtown Belgrade with my husband. We have a large fenced in yard at .4 acres and a doggie door. We have three wonderful dogs; a mini Aussie, a golden retriever pit lab mix, and a lab pointer mix. I have a separate, personal, insurance plan for pet daycare & boarding, with expanded coverage for client pets. I am happy to share my certificate including all limits for general liability, vet care, human medical coverage, damage to property, and more. I also know how to perform CPR on pets.

About: I have raised (along with my grown son, daughter, and step-kids) numerous cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, tropical fish, and frogs, and I have years of experience caretaking my friends’ and family’s pets. I am comfortable and have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs and cats. I have a lot of experience administering oral medications to dogs, too. In my time working with Rover, I have earned all 5-⭐️ reviews! I understand that your pets are family members, and I will love and care for them as such. I love animals and will give them the time needed for walks, feeding, and play time! I don’t have pets of my own currently because I occasionally take long surf/fly fishing trips. Once we get to know each other and your pets are familiar with me, I can lock in your rate. I imagine I will have a small increase soon as inflation continues to rise. In September I am a college instructor teaching writing and literature. I teach two face-to-face courses on Mondays and Wednesdays in the fall from 10-2. I am available after that time, as well as all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, as well as weekends. My 13 year old daughter lives with me every other week, and she loves to help with the pets during her stays. During summers I am available all days and holidays, but this summer my calendar booked quickly. I have reservations for 34 of 40 days from mid-July to late August. As soon as you know next year’s vacation plans contact me! During summers I am available all days and holidays, but this summer my calendar booked quickly.

I teach two face-to-face courses on Mondays and Wednesdays in the fall from 10-2. I am available after that time, as well as all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, as well as weekends. I do not offer boarding services. I live in a small apartment and the owners require additional deposits for pets to be on premises. In your home I try to maintain the atmosphere and vibe you have created for your pets. I am not a partier, nor would I bring other people into your space. My 13 year old daughter loves to help with the pets, but that is pending your approval and her schedule.

About: Although I have more experience with cats, I have dog sat and walked for my grandparents off and on throughout the years. I have cared for both large and small dogs, but have more experience with younger dogs in general. I would be happy to learn how to care for an older pet. I am currently working part time, so I have some spare time for walks. I have a spacious vehicle for transporting big dogs, and live in a great neighborhood with lots of trails. I would always be sure to ask about your pets' habits, such as what they do and don't like, where their toys are, places they like to hide, and so on. I'd also make note of any rules you may have for them, like staying off furniture. I am house sitting at the moment, so I wouldn't be able to board your pet.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 9 years old. Whether they are my own pets or my neighbors I’ve always give them the most optimal care. Every pet deserves the best treatment you can give them because there always there for you when you need them. Growing up we had so many different pets including dogs,cats,horse,pigs,chickens,lambs,steers,rabbits and even a couple geckos. This gives me a wide range of knowledge in pet care and shows you just how much I love animals. This is currently my full time job so I have full availability throughout the week and weekend to care for your pets with top notch service. When caring for pets in my home or at a clients I always make sure to give them all the essentials and more. They deserve lots of attention and playtime, plenty of time outside and a healthy diet. My dogs are like my children so I treat other peoples the exact same I would treat my own.

“We have booked with George several times and she never disappoints! She is very communicative and flexible. Our two dogs love her and we know they are in good hands with her.”
