Dog Walking University District

About: I love taking care of pets! I have spent my past 2 summers taking care of various animals for family and friends. I also taught my own dog to shake and roll over! I am a student at University of Montana, and I am able to care for your pet in between classes, every morning, afternoon and evening. I also am able to transport myself whenever I need to! Typically, I have always stayed at the homeowners home with the pet so the pet is able to be in a comfterable enviorment that they are familiar with!

“Quinn was punctual, kind, and clearly experienced with animals. I came home to a happy and tired dog at the end of every day. Highly recommend!”

About: College student wanting to care for your pets! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 9 years old and love them all. I’ll cater to your needs. I am a college student and have some availability to dog walk or visit between classes during the week. I can work with you on time and duration as it fits into my schedule! For house pet-sitting I’m flexible to when I am free so reach out and ask about my availability! I respect the home I care for the dogs in and respect the rules set for their pets. I’m attentive to the dogs needs during my stay and make them top priority.

“Kalyn is an excellent dog walker. She is reliable and always communicates well with me. Shel is also gentle with my Sheltie. I highly recommend her.”

“Brianna is such an AMAZING sitter / walker! She has been incredibly reliable, communicative and generous with my pups! She has been available to both overnight with my dogs as well as take them on walks and they have always come home happy and healthy! And they all love her dog too! She takes them on adventures and really cares for them. She is my go-to for trusted pet sitters! I highly recommend her!”

“August always wonderful care of Rex! He also listens to anything that I may need to make sure is taken care of especially during these hot days! He also sends me the cutest pics of my little booger! Would definitely recommend!”

“This was my first time using Rover.com. My dog Marco and I had a great experience! We met Casey for a meet and greet prior to the dog walk. I was very impressed with Casey's professionalism. Casey helped answer all my questions about the service and tips for using the app. Love the Rover card. Even received a picture of my dog on the walk. Marco said he likes Casey and would definitely enjoy another walk or visit. Will plan on scheduling soon!”

About: I have taken care of every kind of dog, big or small. I have experience since I was about 5 years old. My uncle was a dog breeder as well so I have experience with young puppies since a young age. Also can handle big dogs as well. I have no limit on the dogs. I have a pretty flexible schedule so I have plenty of time throughout the week to take care of your fluffy kids, any time and any place! I make sure to know my surroundings for myself and the animal to assure safety. Stay in fenced areas or on leash. Let us explore while I got their back.

“Excellent communication and very helpful.”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have had cats as well, so I'm comfortable with both. Most recently I've been the go-to sitter for my neighbor's cat during her extended trips away — sometimes up to a month at a time. Animals tend to be at ease around me, and I bring the same calm, unhurried attention to pet care that I do to everything else. Your pet will be well looked after and genuinely enjoyed, not just managed. I’m reliable, quiet, respectful of your home, and happy to follow detailed instructions for your pet’s care. I work from home on a flexible, part-time basis, which means I'm around most of the day and can give pets consistent attention and company. I'm available for drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week with good advance notice. I'm attentive, calm, and take pet care seriously. For in-home sitting I treat your space with care and keep everything exactly as you'd want it. I'm comfortable with a range of pets and temperaments, and I'll communicate with you regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Had Ben fill in for a couple weeks while my other walker was gone. My dog instantly warmed up to him and he has great communication! Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve always grown up in a household with pets. From dogs and cats, to rodents and reptiles. For small animals or reptile requests, please message me to discuss pricing! I’ve created special bonds with each and every animal, and always love meeting new little friends while i’m out and about. I’ve dealt with special needs from pets such as medications for allergies, anxiety and fear, reactivity, and more. I also spent about a year working in a local pet store where I learned in depth about pet nutrition and supplements, as well as just the basic reasons as to why animals do what they do. I now work at a local animal shelter, so I am experienced working alongside a variety of temperaments, social ability, and sizes! I work full time, but am happy to take on any additional duties outside or around my working schedule. I currently work a set schedule, so I can reliably be available at the same times of day for your pets. I’m available before and after work most days, so if your animal is used to a typical 9-5 lifestyle, we will be a good match. While I’m traveling to your home to meet your fur babies, I’m happy to accommodate whatever you request! One of my pups at home has many special needs and requirements, so I am used to the more hands-on style of pet parenting. Both of my dogs are 50+ lbs, so I am used to large dogs, though I work alongside many small pets in my line of work as well. At my job I routinely work with veterinarians, so I am comfortable administering medications of many kinds. I also have two crested geckos at home that I care for! 🦎 My little lizards have taught me patience, as earning a gecko’s trust is not easy! I vow to be patient and kind working with whatever your pet’s needs may be.

About: I grew up with a love of all animals and have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I know have a cat and a rat of my own and study wildlife biology at the University of Montana. I also have experience working with many types of animals I have worked at zoos and animal care facilities providing daily diet, care, and enrichment for a number of animals. I am a student at the University of Montana so my schedule is fairly open and I will be willing to change plans and make time to fit jobs into my daily routine. I have an indoor cat and rat at my home. My rat has her own cage and space but gets along great with my cat when I bring her out for a visit.

About: I've grown up with animals my whole life! I've taken care of them since I was little! I love meeting new animals and seeing their quirky side! I work full time Wed-Sun from 10-5! I can always check on the animals before and after work and if preferred I can take a break to let them potty! If you have a fence wonderful, if not no worries! I can hook them on the leash and take them for walks around the neighborhood! Whatever your animals loves I can do!

“Lucy is wonderful! She did two walks a day for my Golden Retriever while I was out of town! He loves her and would wait by the front door for her each time! She is so sweet and accommodating!”

Kristy W.

“Peter did an amazing job walking our high energy, adolescent dog. He was very attentive about using the same commands and reinforcement of training techniques. I also really appreciated his great communication. The daily pictures and updates made me smile. Walks with Peter were definitely the highlight of my dog's day while we were away. We'll absolutely reach out again in the future. Thank you!”

“Emily was lovely to work with! Super communicative and treated our dog so well! We look forward to working with her again!”

About: I grew up from the age of 8 with cats and dogs. I know that every critter has its own personality and should be treated as such. I have experience walking medium-sized dogs (german shepherds and retrievers) have watched cats too. I have my own cat, and empathize with the heartache that can come with leaving your pet at home. I am a responsible, trustworthy person who would love to check in or walk your pet(s) while you are away. I have passed both state and federal background checks and am employed as a researcher through the federal government. I love having my cat, Fischer, by my side as I work from home and am happy that he's been able to travel and adapt with me over the past 10 years of us being family! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you have about my qualifications or experience. I work from home, so I am most happy doing check-ins or walks during the day! I try to save my weekends for my own outside time, but if I am in town I will happily care for your animal. I will be sure to treat your house as a would my own: keeping it clean and safe. I will always lock your doors, refresh water bowls as needed, or feed/medicate if necessary. Your pet will be my priority when I am caring for it.

About: Hi I’m Natalee! 👋 I will love your pup like my own! 😊 I am flexible with hours, can take your dog on walks/runs outside, and will ensure that your pet is happy and safe. I love the outdoors, so if your dog does too, we will get along wonderfully! I am responsible and friendly and very active. I’ve watched all types of dogs, from puppies to senior pets, and have the most experience with high energy and high activity dogs. Let me know whatever special needs your pet may require, and I will do my very best to meet those needs. I also offer cat care and will be sure to take the best care of your pet! I love snuggling with cats and making sure they get the attention they want and deserve! I can work remote, which is great for extra snuggles with your pet and making sure your house is taken care of while you’re gone. I never leave a dog at home for more than 5 hours when I’m pet sitting. Most of my stays have been word of mouth, so happy to give you a reference if you need! I care for your dog as I do my own- pets are family!
