Personalized care for your dog or cat - Smelterville
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Smelterville
“This was the first time we have utilized a “ Dog Sitter “ and couldn’t be happier. Simone has been so accommodating, making our dogs transitions to staying with her easier. Simone took the time to meet us for walks with her and her dogs, provided day sitting and then overnight stays to prepare our dog for his stay. We are so blessed to have Simone! She cares and loves our dogs as her own. Receiving pictures of our Dog playing, sleeping and having fun reassures his quality care. We consider Simone more as a family friend than a sitter. She is truly “one of a kind “. We live 45 miles from Simone; the distance is worth her quality care. Thank you.”
“Ziggy had a great time with Leaha and Snowy! She was accommodating with pick up & drop-off and sent lots of updates. I highly recommend Leaha and plan to use her in the future.”
“Amazing dog sitter! Super reliable, caring, and great with communication. We got regular updates and our pup came home happy and relaxed. It’s clear they truly love what they do. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
About: I have hands-on experience with high-energy dogs and know how to keep them happy, exercised, and mentally engaged. I’m patient and attentive, with a gentle approach that works well for both playful pups and older dogs who need a little extra care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. As a veteran Marine and someone who has competitively trained dogs since 2020, I approach pet care with structure, consistency, and discipline. I make sure pets are cared for with structure, safety, and attention to detail. I follow consistent feeding schedules, provide exercise and play tailored to each pet’s needs, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. With my background in competitive dog training, I also incorporate positive reinforcement and mental stimulation to ensure pets are not only well cared for but also engaged and happy.
About: I work remotely and love taking walks throughout the day to stop looking at screens. I go for frequent runs, walks and hikes and love taking a dog with me, just let me know if you would like your pup to get extra exercise! I live in downtown CDA area with a large fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks! I only take in one dog at a time. I had both dogs and cats growing up and I'm a proud Aunty of all my friends dogs when they are out of town. I always look forward to it! If you have a strong high energy dog, don't sweat it. I had a retriever/chow mix for 14 years and I'm stronger than I look. :) Currently I work in real estate so I make my own hours and have plenty of time to walk your pup and give them extra attention I have a large fenced yard, a good size home for them to roam around, and a great neighborhood for long walks. <3 danyelle .
“Jessica did a great job loving on our two dogs & cat! She sent us pictures of all of them & kept us up -to-date on how they were doing. Plus, our house was clean, & she answered us right away if we needed her to do something at the house while we were away! Thank you Jessica! ❤🙂❤”
“Kelly, Tyler and family are the best. They kept us updated with pictures and loved our dog like their own. They have a great property for dogs with a large but secure lawn. We won’t hesitate to use them again.”
“Id give Brandi ten stars if that was possible. She loved my dogs like I would. She kept them exercised and entertained. She has a nice home that was very clean and tidy. I picked up 2 happy and calm german shepherds. Brandi sent me pictures and texts on the dogs well being every other day, which allowed me to relax and enjoy my cruise. I'll definitely be using her services again!”

About: Hello! May name is Emma Brown and I work in the outdoor field hoping to work with wildlife in the future. Ever since I was young, I’ve had cats in some area of my life. Either when I visited my Aunt’s house, as one of our neighbors outdoor cats, or when I started cat sitting. I have always made it my priority to understand each pet owners request and stick to that schedule. Prioritizing each cat’s safety and health has always been my biggest strength as well. This is what I love to do and I can’t wait to get to know your pets!
“Stephanie is great with communication about our cats. Both our cats immediately went to her at greeting. We will have Stephanie watch our four-legged family again! She is genuine, honest and trustworthy.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Smelterville
“Simone was fantastic with our labradoodle while we biked the Hiawatha Trail. She sent photos and was flexible with the hours for pickup. We would definitely go to her again if we return to the area.”
About: I would LOVE to care for your pets and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away! ☺️ I welcome cats and other small pets for overnight stays in my home, offer doggy day care, and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m also open to caring for a wider variety of animals during drop-ins, including bunnies, fish, chickens, goats, horses, and other animals with straightforward care needs. My husband and I live on 20 acres of land with our sweet dog Miso, our loving cat Yoshi, and our ten chickens. I’m currently on a corporate work break, so I have lots of flexibility throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, and my husband also works from home. I have had a heart for animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets, including cats, dogs, fish, ducks, and chickens. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets, as well as watching over homes, and I always treat every pet and property with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and a great communicator, and I love sending photo updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, exploring, or simply having a calm place to relax, I’m happy to follow their routine and meet their individual needs. For pets staying with me, I offer a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where they can feel cared for like part of the family. I’d be so happy to help give your pet a loving, safe, and stress-free experience! I am currently taking a corporate career break so my schedule is flexible to spend all day engaging with pet(s)! For boarding and doggy day care my husband will also be able to engage with your pet(s) all day as he works from home. My home is a safe, clean, and comfortable place for pets to relax and feel cared for. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding instructions, potty breaks, playtime, quiet time, or any special rules that help them feel secure. I treat every pet like family and make safety, comfort, and communication my top priorities.
“Annie had a wonderful day with Kelly, Tyler and their kids. What a delightful family who love dogs. Wish I could take them home with me! I wouldn’t hesitate to call them when I am in the area again!”

About: Flexible and accommodating, I strive to make your life easier and to make your pet as safe and happy as possible. Passionate about pets! I managed the pet care department at a PetSmart for 2 years before relocating to the Silver Valley, since then I’ve hosted many diverse Rover bookings and I’d love for your pet to be next! 30 minutes west of the Hiawatha Trail and 10 minutes west of Silver Mountain Resort. I also offer pick up and drop off from both locations if you’re willing to pay for gas: $5 per Silver Mountain drive and $15 per drive to the Hiawatha Bike trail. I already feed, water, love and spend time outside with my own dogs—your pet can join us anytime and they will be treated like one of my own. I am attentive and communicative and I take direction well. Tell me what your pet needs and they’ll get it, along with some extra love.
About: Hello! My name is Emma Brown and I work in the outdoor field hoping to work with wildlife in the future. I have always had dogs in my household growing up. Ever since I was young, I made it my job to teach my dogs tricks, make sure they don’t get into trouble, and give them the best home. At one point, my childhood dog had a litter of 11 chocolate lab puppies. I helped to raise them up all the way until they left for their new homes. I also watched other people’s dogs growing up. I have always made it my priority to understand each pet owners request and stick to that schedule. Prioritizing each dog’s safety and health has always been my biggest strength as well. This is what I love to do and I can’t wait to get to know your pets! I’m currently in between jobs right now and will have a lot of time to be with your pets. Depending on what you ask, I can take out your pets on walks, to be let out, or to just be around however long you may ask for. Just let me know what schedule you’d like me to fit into. I unfortunately can’t house your dog in my home. I can pet and house sit to make sure to keep their schedule as normal as possible. I always try my best to prioritize their safety and health, so only giving them their own food and treats is how I do so. I don’t feed my own pets my extra food scraps so don’t worry about that. Once you let me know of their schedule, I’ll follow it to the best of my ability. I would also love to know their mannerisms and quirks so I can best approach them and their care.
About: I have several yeas of experience as a dog sitter. I love all different types of dogs and I have experience with big, medium, little, old and young dogs.. I am passionate about making a dog’s life as great as possible. In addition, I am an avid runner, biker, hiker, and outdoor enthusiast. I work fully remote as a nurse. I am a fully flexible and fully remote nurse. It makes me the perfect fit tend to all of your dog’s special, unique needs and wants. I live super close to many parks and walkable areas. In addition, I am willing to travel and keep pets in their home environment to provide extra comfort.
About: Hi, I'm Stephanie, and this is my husband Luke. We're your Critter Companions, and with us, two is always better. For overnight stays we work as a team, which means double the attention, double the playtime, and an extra set of eyes on your property. We specialize in residential pet and property care. As independent caretakers, our mission is estate-level care that gives you complete peace of mind: your pets stay comfortable in their own home, and your property is truly looked after, not just checked on. ✦ What We Specialize In We're especially comfortable with the pets and situations that need extra care and attention: ✓ Special needs and senior pets (blind, deaf, mobility-challenged, or behaviorally complex) ✓ Complex medication schedules: pills, injections, eye drops, you name it ✓ High-maintenance breeds that need extensive grooming, intense exercise, or dedicated training ✓ Extended stays, comfortably caring for your pets for weeks or even months at a time ✓ Holiday care, because I don't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's ✓ Multi-pet households, managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and needs ✓ Anxious or reactive pets, with patient, consistent care that helps nervous animals feel secure ✦ A Little About Us We were both raised around animals, but I turned that passion into my life's work. I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, the neighborhood's trusted pet sitter long before it was a profession. Thirteen years later, I've cared for everything from easy-going family dogs to high-maintenance breeds with special medical needs, for stays ranging from long weekends to month-long holidays. What clients tell me sets me apart is how I read animals. I pick up on the subtle changes in behavior, body language, and those little cues that tell you something's off before it becomes a problem. I'm not going through the motions; I love what I do, and that enthusiasm shows in how I care for your pets and your home. ✦ Your Home, Cared For I look after your home just as carefully: mail, plants, trash bins, security checks, and that lived-in presence that keeps your property safe. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can truly relax while you're away. ✦ Values You Can Trust Beyond the practical care, we believe the people you let into your home matter just as much as the work they do. We love the Lord, and our faith in Jesus shapes how we run our business and how we treat what's entrusted to us. For us that means a simple, steady lifestyle: we don't drink, smoke, party, or invite guests into your home. While you're away, your house stays exactly as it should, quiet, respected, and cared for, with nothing happening under your roof that you wouldn't welcome yourself. When you hand us your keys, you're trusting us with your home and your family. We take that seriously, and we hold ourselves to it no matter the circumstances. ✦ Let's Connect Over the years I've built lasting relationships with pets and their owners because I treat every home like my own and every pet like family. I'd be honored to earn that same trust from you. If you're looking for someone who will love and protect your pets (and home) like their own, let's connect. Pet care isn't a side hustle for me—it's my primary focus and passion. My husband and I are entrepreneurs with flexible schedules, which means we can provide the kind of attentive, present care that pets truly need. For overnight stays, we're in your home from evening through the following morning (and throughout the day if needed), so your pets are never alone for extended periods. We don't juggle multiple clients at once or rush between appointments. When we commit to caring for your pets, they have our full attention for the duration of your trip. We're available for extended stays including weekends, holidays, and even month-long commitments. Because we work as a team, your pets benefit from having two consistent caregivers who can coordinate schedules, provide extra play sessions, and ensure someone is always nearby if needed. In Your Home: I've been around animals literally since I was an infant—they've always been my comfort, my joy, and honestly, my obsession. There's something about the presence of animals that just feels like home to me, and that's exactly the energy I bring to your pets and property. As the owner of a young, energetic Miniature Australian Shepherd, I know firsthand what it takes to meet the demands of intelligent, high-energy breeds. I'm devoted to keeping my own dog mentally stimulated, physically tired, and emotionally fulfilled—and I bring that same level of commitment to every pet in my care. Your pets aren't just a job to me; they're loved and treated with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Pet Safety & Care: ✓I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, medication schedules, exercise patterns, and house rules ✓Secure all doors, windows, and gates before letting pets outside (no escape artists on my watch!) ✓Keep toxic plants, foods, and hazards out of reach ✓Monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health ✓Have your vet information and emergency contacts readily accessible ✓Never introduce your pets to unfamiliar animals or people without permission ✓Provide the mental stimulation and physical activity your pets need to stay happy and healthy Home Security & Cleanliness: ✓Maintain a "lived-in" presence with lights, blinds, and your normal routine ✓Collect mail and packages to avoid signaling an empty home ✓Take trash bins to/from curb on collection days ✓Water plants and maintain your home's appearance ✓Provide regular photo/video updates so you can see everything (and everyone) is doing great ✓I pride myself on attention to detail and cleanliness—you'll come home to a thoroughly cleaned space that exceeds expectations Trust & Respect: I treat your home with the utmost respect—no unauthorized guests ever and I leave your space cleaner than I found it. My husband and I work as a team, which means your pets get double the love and your home gets double the oversight. The best part? When you walk through that door after your trip, your pets will be more giddy than ever to see you—well-exercised, well-loved, and so happy you're home. And you can relax knowing everything was handled with care.
