“Zoie was an absolutely incredible dog sitter. Five stars does not feel like enough. She sent frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave me a great deal of peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive and proactive, reaching out when one of my dogs was whining so we could work together to figure out what he needed. My two dogs have special needs. One is blind and takes daily medication, and the other is deaf. Caring for them requires patience, attention, and flexibility, and Zoie handled it all with kindness and confidence for more than a week. It was clear from the beginning that she genuinely cared about their well being. I also made a mistake with my travel plans, and Zoie graciously kept them an extra night without hesitation. When they ran out of food before their new shipment arrived, she made sure they were fed and cared for until it did. One of my dogs even came home with a toy he became completely obsessed with, which was such a thoughtful gesture and a reflection of how much attention she paid to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Zoie consistently went above and beyond. She was not just a five star sitter. She was a ten. I would trust her with my dogs again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“She literally was the best! She was able to take Cleo for me on short notice and gave her the best time🌟 I would highly recommend her and will be rebooking with her when I can❤️”
“Shannon was amazing to work with! We set up a time to meet with her a few weeks before we left our puppy with her for a weekend. My puppy took an instant liking to her and her apartment, he immediately made himself at home on her couch! She was waiting outside when we dropped him off at 5:40 in the morning. She sent tons of pictures and updates and it was clear that my puppy had a ball with her! They went on walks, snuggled, and played ball. When I picked up my puppy at the end of the weekend both puppy and Shannon seemed genuinely sad that their time together was over. I will definitely be using her in the future!!”
“Morgan always takes the best care of our Lucy. Lucy has unlimited amounts of energy but she always comes home from Morgan’s exhausted! She never wants to come home because she’s having too much fun.”
“Andy and Flo took great care of our girls. Our girls are seniors, have specific needs and health problems, and anxiety. I was really worried about finding the right person to watch over them, and they did a great job. All of the needs, medicines, and special instructions did not worry them, they cared about and stuck to the instructions to help our girls feel comfortable, stay in their schedules, and make sure there were no health incidents. When we picked them up, they clearly had been comfortable, were well rested, and really liked Andy and Flo!”
“Sophie was great! Very friendly and provided excellent care for our dog, Daisy. We felt very comfortable leaving for 9 days because we knew she was in good hands. Sophie was responsive and made drop off and pickup easy. We appreciated the large fenced in yard and inviting home. We’d definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“The care Hannah received was nothing short of extraordinary!!! My golden is very special to me and I was nervous leaving her with anybody. I was blessed to find Becky!!! The communication was exceptional and the photographs and updates I received relieved any nervousness I may have had. I would Highly Recommend Becky B. Thank you again Becky!!!”
About: I grew up in Montana and have always loved the small-town way of life. My passion for animals started when I rescued my first dog at 15, and he now lives on through his two siblings. Caring for animals has been something I’ve always enjoyed, and I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. I have worked at a local dog boarding and daycare facility for the past four years, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. Whether it’s high-energy pups, senior dogs, or those needing a little extra patience, I’m well-versed in providing personalized care to ensure every dog feels safe and loved. I work full time Monday thru Friday 7:00 AM - 3:00PM with weekends off! I can be flexible with running home during the day for a potty break. Weekends are spent at home or doing a fun outdoor activity! At home, all dogs are treated like family! I live in an apartment complex with three fully fenced, off-leash dog areas, giving pups plenty of space to play and exercise. For dogs staying in my home, they must be dog and cat friendly, as I have my own pets. If I’m caring for your pup in your home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I’m Brycen! I have a strong love and passion for all animals. So, Im always looking for a new little buddy to play with. I love the outdoors and I usually try to get out and moving everyday, and I would enjoy to bring a dog with me. With my experience, I have learned that all dogs are very different, and I'll be sure to assist to your pet in a way that leaves them satisfied. I have worked at dog and cat boarding facilities in the past which allowed me to learn a lot about each breed and all the different personalities you may see. I’d love to meet you and your pets and see if we are a good fit! I’m a manager in Bigfork so I do work a 9-5, 40 hour work week, but I come home with lots of energy and love getting outside right after work! I live in a two bedroom quiet house with a fenced in yard and an attached doggy door and cat door. There is plenty of space to roam around.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, big and small, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m the go-to sitter for friends because I genuinely love being around animals and put a lot of care into making sure they feel safe, understood, and comfortable. During my psychology degree, I spent a year and a half studying Animal-Assisted Interventions, focusing on animal behavior, emotional attunement, human-animal connection, and therapeutic support work. My own dog is a huge part of my life — she travels around the country with me and goes almost everywhere by my side. I personally trained her with therapy/service dog foundations, which taught me a lot about patience, consistency, structure, and reading a dog’s needs and body language I'm fortunate that my days are centered around my dog, Bennie. I get up, let her out right away, then prepare her breakfast, and she eats while we start the morning together outside. I’m home most of the time and spend my days in the yard gardening, doing yard work, or working on projects around the property, so she’s with me and supervised throughout the day. I also always make sure there’s some form of engagement or mental stimulation so dogs are never bored or over-energized, whether that’s training, enrichment activities, or interactive play. If I need to run errands, Bennie usually comes with me and stays in the car if the weather is safe. If it’s too warm, she stays home in her calm, familiar environment instead. I’m typically only gone for short errands and make a point of never leaving her alone for long. When we’re not at home, we’re usually outside doing something active- swimming at the lake, going on hikes, going for runs, or taking long walks. Our lifestyle is very outdoors-oriented, and she’s included in almost everything I do Bennie is always at the top of my mind, and safety is my number one priority. I have a fully fenced, dog-proof yard with a secure gate that is always kept closed. I also have cameras on the property to monitor for wildlife or anything unsafe outside. Inside the home, I use non-toxic, pet-safe cleaning products and avoid harsh chemicals. I’m very mindful of anything dogs could be sensitive to, including what they’re exposed to, what they play with, and what they’re given. I only use safe toys and bones that are appropriate and supervised. Overall, I focus on creating a calm, secure environment where dogs can relax, explore, and feel completely safe while still having structure and supervision
“Whitney was amazing & we couldn’t be happier about Chevy’s stay at her house! She is energetic, positive, and very friendly. It was fun to get pictures & hear about how well he was doing. He’s a pretty spoiled lab & we loved that he got a ton of love & attention over there. We spent a few days in Glacier, but knew he was having as much fun as we were! Highly recommend!!! We will definitely use her again when we come back this way.”
“Elizabeth is a very kind person. I booked 2 separate days and my puppy was so excited to be there the second day. I was very pleased to have found such a good home to leave my puppy. I will definitely book again with Elizabeth.”
“Sherri was an amazing dog sitter ? She was enthusiastic, flexible with our timeline, organized and most of all so loving to our puppy while we were gone. Her home is a safe, active sanctuary for pets while your gone. It’s obvious he was well attended to, taking multiple walks everyday and going on adventures and then snuggling on the couch. We are grateful we found Sherri during our trip to Glacier Park.”
“Devonna was awesome! She made Petey feel like he was at home and made us feel super-comfortable with having him pet-sit for the first time. She was extremely flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. We will definitely book again!”
“Maisie Jane had a great time on her first overnights away from me. I got lots of great photos and communication about how she was doing while she was there. Thank you so so much for taking such good care of my sweet baby dog, Shauna, Deanna and Cody!”

Checking their stool, food/water intake, etc. I treat them like they're my friend. I am sensitive to their needs and that usually looks like a welcoming and loving attitude. I treat your home and furry family with love.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Batavia
“Morgan was the perfect doggy daycare for us while we went to explore the nearby national park. Our dogs were well cared for and happy during the meet and greet and the daycare day. We loved that we got photos of them, they had a fenced in yard, were welcome to roam the house, and had other dogs to spend the day with. All of these details made them so much more comfortable than they would have been in a traditional kennel facility. This is exactly what we look for when we need to board our dogs. Thanks again Morgan!”
“I always receive pictures and updates during the day. The girls do not act anxious after pickup. Shannon and her family always welcome them with loving hugs and snuggles. I would give Shannon a 10 out of 10 if I could.”
“First time leaving Luna with someone on rover, definitely recommend and trust. Super responsive to my text, very helpful last minute. She was able to accommodate picking up my baby early for me to enjoy my day. Received reports when I was away. Definitely trust this app because she made it very smooth. Thank you”
“Our very energetic pup had the most wonderful day with Genevieve and her dog plus one other. Gen was super gracious and communicative and I felt 100% comfortable leaving Guinness in her care. Couldn’t be happier.”
“Sophie is so great! She’s been very flexible with my work schedule and takes excellent care of my pup! She has a big yard for him to hang out in and takes him for long walks! Thank you Sophie!!”
“My husband and I came to the area to visit Glacier National Park along our cross country roadtrip with our dog, Ozzie. Since dogs are not allowed on any of the trails in Glacier National Park, we looked to find someone to watch our dog for a day while we went hiking. Luckily we found Emily and her sweet family, who were willing to look after him on only a few days notice. They were SO kind and loving to Ozzie and we felt completely at ease having a day at the park knowing he was in great hands. He got to run around with other dogs and had a great time. He was a happy and tired pup at night. I wish we lived closer to Emily and her family so they could look after him again when we need help. :)”
“Highly recommend Whitney! We were nervous at first with leaving Nebby at a Rover that would be watching multiple other dogs, but our worries eased pretty much immediately after arriving. Communication was excellent from first booking, she was upfront about the number and types of dogs she was watching, and was organized and amazing with all of the dogs (they all clearly love her). If you are going to Glacier for the day it also couldn’t be more convenient. Nebby came home both days happy and tired, just like us!”
“Tiffany took wonderful care of Dixie and Smokey for the day while we went into the park! She was great with communication beforehand and throughout the day and flexible with drop off/pick up times! She exercised the girls multiple times and sent lots of pictures throughout the day! 5+ ⭐️”
“Kelly was so great to work with. It was the perfect set up for our active dog. She sent update pictures which were great to see and even modified the booking for us when we had to last minute board him. Would absolutely recommend and would book with again!”
About: I've had pets my whole life and have taken care of them from an early age. I love all animals and believe they deserve a comforting experience if their owner is gone. I am a mom of 2 school aged kids. I am home daily to care for my animals and others. I'm also very active and will welcome any walk or run for your dog. I treat other pets as my own. We are outside a lot enjoying our 5 acres, and access to open space. Exercise is my staple for a happy dog!
About: Passionate Dog Trainer/Walker Ready to go on Adventures Hello there! My name is Zoro, and I am thrilled to introduce myself as your friendly neighborhood dog trainer/walker. With a heart full of love for all our furry friends, I cannot wait to embark on exciting adventures with your beloved canine companion. My journey as a dog walker began years ago when I discovered my deep-rooted connection with animals. Growing up surrounded by pets, I quickly realized that spending time with dogs brought me unparalleled joy and fulfillment. From that moment on, I knew that my purpose in life was to provide exceptional care and support to our four-legged friends. When it comes to my dog walking philosophy, I believe in nurturing not only physical well-being but also emotional happiness for our furry pals. My primary goal is to create a safe and stimulating environment where dogs can thrive, explore, and have an absolute ball during our walks together. With an innate understanding of canine behavior, I am adept at tailoring my approach to cater to the unique needs and personalities of each dog I encounter. Whether it's a high-energy pooch who craves a vigorous run in the park or a more mellow companion who prefers a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood, I am committed to providing a customized experience that leaves their tail wagging with joy. Safety is my top priority, and you can rest assured that your furry friend will be in capable hands under my care. I am well-versed in canine first aid and CPR, and I maintain a keen eye for potential hazards during our outings. I am also experienced in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring that even the most timid or boisterous canines feel secure and comfortable throughout our walks. In addition to the physical exercise aspect, I strongly believe in the power of mental stimulation for dogs. I incorporate engaging activities, such as interactive games and puzzle toys, to keep their minds sharp and active. Whether it's sniffing out hidden treats or practicing basic obedience commands, I'm always on the lookout for opportunities to make our time together both fun and mentally enriching. Above all, I strive to build trusting relationships not only with the dogs I walk but also with their human companions. Open and transparent communication is key to providing the best care possible, and I am always available to discuss any concerns, requests, or special instructions you may have. Your dog's well-being and happiness are of utmost importance to me, and I am committed to going the extra mile to ensure their needs are met. So, if you're searching for a dog walker who combines boundless enthusiasm, unwavering dedication, and a genuine love for dogs, look no further! Let's join forces and embark on a tail-wagging adventure together. Contact me today, and let's schedule a meet-and-greet to see if I'm the perfect fit for your four-legged friend. Together, we'll create pawsome memories that will last a lifetime! I work from anywhere I have mostly answer phone calls for my business. Which gives me time to take care of dogs. Train them and take them on adventures. When it comes to caring for pets in either my home or my client's home, I ensure that their well-being, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. The specific care provided may vary depending on the service I offer, so let's delve into both scenarios: Caring for pets in my home: If I offer services where pets stay with me, I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment that replicates a home-like atmosphere. Here's how I care for pets in my home: 1. Comfortable accommodations: I provide a cozy space for pets to relax, ensuring they have a comfortable bed or a designated area where they can unwind. 2. Regular feeding and hydration: I adhere to the feeding schedule provided by the pet owner and make sure fresh water is readily available at all times. Special dietary needs or medication administration will be strictly followed as instructed. 3. Exercise and playtime: I engage pets in stimulating activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. Whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or enjoying interactive toys, I ensure they receive the exercise and mental stimulation they require. 4. Regular potty breaks and hygiene: I maintain a consistent bathroom schedule, taking pets outside for potty breaks. I also provide regular grooming, including brushing, bathing, and nail trims, if necessary. 5. Safety and supervision: I create a secure environment, free from potential hazards, and monitor pets closely to ensure their safety at all times. I supervise their interactions with other pets, if applicable, to ensure a peaceful and harmonious environment. Caring for pets in the client's home: If I offer services where I visit the client's home to care for their pets, my approach revolves around maintaining their routine and surroundings. Here's how I care for pets in their own homes: 1. Adhering to routines: I strive to follow the established routines provided by the pet owner, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions for their care. 2. Feeding and medication administration: I ensure pets receive their meals according to the provided schedule and administer any necessary medications as instructed. 3. Exercise and enrichment: I engage pets in physical activities tailored to their needs, whether it's going for walks, playing in the yard, or engaging in interactive play. I also provide mental stimulation through puzzles, toys, and positive reinforcement training. 4. Maintaining cleanliness: I keep the pet's living areas clean and tidy, including regular litter box cleaning for cats or ensuring a clean outdoor space for dogs. 5. Security and well-being: I make sure the home is secure during my visits, ensuring doors and windows are properly closed and locked. I also keep a watchful eye for any potential signs of distress or health issues in the pets and report any concerns to the owner promptly. Overall, my goal is to provide a loving and attentive environment, whether in my home or the client's home, ensuring that pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for in every possible way.
“Kyle was so, so wonderful. He took such great care of Irv and so clearly has a deep love of dogs. He was patient with Irv, who is a puppy still working on not having accidents and walking on a leash. Irv was so excited to see Kyle every day, too, which made everything even better. Any dog who gets to hang with Kyle is very lucky.”
“Alaina was absolutely fantastic with our dog. She is so kind, sent photos and videos, and was an excellent communicator. We would 10/10 recommend Alaina and happily have her watch our dog again!”
“Sue watched our pups while we were at the music festival and we were so thrilled to have found her. Sue’s personality is so chill and positive and our dogs immediately recognized that. She has a fenced backyard that is doggie heaven and a huge shade tree for the pups to nap in. She was flexible with our pick up and drop off times, even when we picked them up super late at night. Knowing our dogs were safe and taken care of was worth every penny. It’s hard to find a sitter in whitefish, let alone one that is so close to downtown. Thank you Sue for all you did for us while we were in town!”
About: I’m a conservative and believe in traditional Christian values. 🇺🇸🙏🏽 I’m working towards going off grid and love to chat with others about how to make that happen and learning the skills to achieve that. Right now I tutor, teach small classes to homeschooling families / groups and babysit. I also create digital content. My goal is to at some point work remotely 90% of the time while teaching STEM classes or homeschooling classes occasionally in-person. I did petcare in college. I started taking it more seriously as a way to earn income in 2018. I became very busy often booked out continuously for months at a time the last few years. I love petcare, especially dogs, and feel blessed to be part of this industry. Let’s meet and see if I’m a good match for your family! 🐕🦺🐾 My weekly schedule: Mon 10:30-3:30 pm (tutor) 4-8 pm (babysit, flexible on days) Tu 10:30-1 pm (teach) Wed 9-5 pm (babysit) Th 10:30-12:30 pm (tutor) 4-8 pm (babysit, flexible on days) Fri 9-5 pm (babysit) Sat 9-1 pm (babysit, flexible on times) Sun 8-2 pm (church, flexible) ** My classes and tutoring sessions currently varies based on traveling of my clients. As I take on more clients Tuesday’s schedule may change but I will update as needed. ** If you need someone around more on my busier days, an option to consider is both my boyfriend and I could petsit together. He is often home during the times I am not so between the two of us, we could provide more time with your pets for the same price. He's also great with pets, especially large dogs and cats (!) while my specialty is little ones. Don't get me wrong. I love all types of dogs, but I especially adore those chihuahuas! I focus on building a trusting relationship with whatever pet I am watching. It’s important that he / she trust me and that is created through talking to the animal, treats, affection / petting and then leaving the animal alone to adjust to a new person and come to me in his / her own time. I find it very fulfilling to get an anxious dog to “smile” or come out of his / her shell!

However, if your dog/ cat is not good with other dogs and cats I am able to keep them separated by the floors in my house, so that would be no problem.

About: Hello! My name is Natalie. I am an LVT licensed in Montana, with over 10 years of pet care and animal healthcare experience. I worked as a dog handler in several different kennels before obtaining my degree in Veterinary Technology from Bellingham Technical College, receiving mentorship in a variety of animal hospitals. I now work in veterinary physical rehabilitation and do Rover in my free time! I have experience caring for dogs, cats, pocket pets, and exotics, including those with special needs. I am more than happy to provide your pet with day-to-day specialized care such as administering medications, mobility assistance, or providing care to senior pets who need an extra bit of love. I personally have a cat who is special needs - she is deaf, and has both intestinal lymphoma and cerebellar hypoplasia - so I know it can sometimes be a challenge to find proper care for pets like her! Rest assured that I will provide your babies with the upmost care. I live in Kalispell, and I provide service to Kalispell, Whitefish, Columbia Falls, and surrounding areas. If I appear just out of range, just ask! I may be able to travel to your location for an additional fee depending on the dates. Thank you for reading, I hope that I can meet your sweet furbabies soon! ♡ I work full-time in a veterinary practice, and while I do need to be home for a few hours a day to take care of my kitties, I am able to do overnights and weekends for clients! Walks: I will use leashes, collars and harnesses that are provided by the client. Walks can take place in client's neighborhood, or on surrounding trails if preferred. Cat owners: I have a spare small cat harness if your feline friend enjoys walks! Pet Sitting: Pet sitting will take place at client's home. I will be fully respectful of your house and home, following your pet sitting instructions completely.
About: Hello, I’m Zoei!. I've had dogs since I was born and brought up with learning how to care for, train, and manage dogs. My parents' friends have had dogs as well whome Ive had the pleasure of caring for on occasion. I've worked in a vet's office and am in the medical field so I can offer optimal care in case of an accident. I've always had a love for dogs and currently have 3 of my own. I also offer care for horses as I’ve grown up with them also and have advanced experience. I do play time after work with my animals and will do that with your animals as well making sure they receive love, and attention, as well as perform any other special care needs. I have a fenced-in yard with 2 friendly very playful dogs. I keep all dogs on a leash outside fenced areas with a close eye and kept close for safety.
About: I have been described as good at communicating, patient, calm in emergencies, trustworthy, and can be counted on. I have worked in barns for years, and have always owned animals. I have pet sat for animals vary in from horses, cows, turkeys, birds, to dogs and cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I am comfortable around animals small to large! You will always find me by the animal in the room. I can give any medications that are needed, and all the updates you could possibly want! I am working as nurse right now, so my times available may be different each day, but I can make a schedule with you that would work for everyone involved! I also have a few days off at a time, and would have a flexible schedule then. I am available to stay or do visits at your house. I can do daily drop ins, or stop by multiple times, or stay the night at your house if preferred!
About: In my lifetime I have been surrounded by animals since birth. Chickens, cows, goats, horses, dogs, cats, and sheep. I’ve always had a strong love for animals. I’ve worked in a vet clinic helping my mom as a vet tech. I have done grooming, worked daycare in daycare facilities, and I’ve dabbled in dog training as well. Over my time dog sitting, I have taken care of puppies and senior care dogs and everything in between. I currently work for a lady dog sitting. I don’t get a whole lot of jobs, So I have a lot of free time for other dog sitting jobs. My dogs get fed a cup in the morning and a cup at night but that does not mean that your dog needs to as well. I will follow any schedule you ask me to follow for your furry friend! I’m also a club volleyball coach so it is really tough for me to be consistently available ones season starts because of traveling tournaments and practices. It starts in November and ends in June. So please just keep in mind that a my day might look available on the calendar but it really depends on what times you want my services. I take my dogs to the dog park as often as I can! They mostly get to go on the weekends. I definitely prefer to take care of animals in my own home just because I do have a group of my own animals but I understand pets being more comfortable in their own homes. When I have meet and greets placed at my house the energy from my dogs are definitely heightened because they are so excited to meet an new friend but ones they get the hellos out of the way the house environment after that is very calm and quiet. We currently live in a single wide mobile home with 3 bed rooms although one of them is designated to my cats 😂 yes they have their own bed room, yes they are spoiled. Point being there is plenty of space for separation if needed and nap times.
About: Experienced with various breeds. From a Lab-Great Dane mix to tiny Yorkies, I've provided attentive care, exercise, and companionship for a year. Ready to extend this dedication to Rover! I am currently available weekdays from 6 am to 3 pm for walking, feeding, and caring for animals. Ready to accommodate pet needs within this timeframe! Blessed with a massive fenced yard and a nearby dog park, along with scenic paths for walks. Ready to offer pets a fun and safe environment for play and exploration!
“Katie is amazing with my dog Summit, she is great with communicating on how his walks go and always sends me photos. I would definitely recommend Katie for all of your pups needs!”

When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I always follow any specific instructions provided—whether it’s related to feeding routines, exercise, medication, or other special needs. I treat both the home and the dogs with respect, making sure everything is left just as I found it. I spend plenty of quality time with each dog, offering comfort, play, and companionship to help ease any anxiety while their owners are away. I believe strong communication is key, so I keep clients updated regularly with messages, photos, and any important notes about their dog’s behavior or well-being. My goal is to ensure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while giving the owner peace of mind

“She was great with both our boys! One who is a very energetic golden retriever and one who is a calm sheepdog. She walked both of them and even offered to feed them before she left since we were out of town. Did a great job!”

“Zoie was an absolutely incredible dog sitter. Five stars does not feel like enough. She sent frequent updates throughout their stay, which gave me a great deal of peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive and proactive, reaching out when one of my dogs was whining so we could work together to figure out what he needed. My two dogs have special needs. One is blind and takes daily medication, and the other is deaf. Caring for them requires patience, attention, and flexibility, and Zoie handled it all with kindness and confidence for more than a week. It was clear from the beginning that she genuinely cared about their well being. I also made a mistake with my travel plans, and Zoie graciously kept them an extra night without hesitation. When they ran out of food before their new shipment arrived, she made sure they were fed and cared for until it did. One of my dogs even came home with a toy he became completely obsessed with, which was such a thoughtful gesture and a reflection of how much attention she paid to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Zoie consistently went above and beyond. She was not just a five star sitter. She was a ten. I would trust her with my dogs again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“She literally was the best! She was able to take Cleo for me on short notice and gave her the best time🌟 I would highly recommend her and will be rebooking with her when I can❤️”
“Morgan always takes the best care of our Lucy. Lucy has unlimited amounts of energy but she always comes home from Morgan’s exhausted! She never wants to come home because she’s having too much fun.”
“Andy and Flo took great care of our girls. Our girls are seniors, have specific needs and health problems, and anxiety. I was really worried about finding the right person to watch over them, and they did a great job. All of the needs, medicines, and special instructions did not worry them, they cared about and stuck to the instructions to help our girls feel comfortable, stay in their schedules, and make sure there were no health incidents. When we picked them up, they clearly had been comfortable, were well rested, and really liked Andy and Flo!”
“Sophie was great! Very friendly and provided excellent care for our dog, Daisy. We felt very comfortable leaving for 9 days because we knew she was in good hands. Sophie was responsive and made drop off and pickup easy. We appreciated the large fenced in yard and inviting home. We’d definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“The care Hannah received was nothing short of extraordinary!!! My golden is very special to me and I was nervous leaving her with anybody. I was blessed to find Becky!!! The communication was exceptional and the photographs and updates I received relieved any nervousness I may have had. I would Highly Recommend Becky B. Thank you again Becky!!!”
About: I grew up in Montana and have always loved the small-town way of life. My passion for animals started when I rescued my first dog at 15, and he now lives on through his two siblings. Caring for animals has been something I’ve always enjoyed, and I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. I have worked at a local dog boarding and daycare facility for the past four years, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. Whether it’s high-energy pups, senior dogs, or those needing a little extra patience, I’m well-versed in providing personalized care to ensure every dog feels safe and loved. I work full time Monday thru Friday 7:00 AM - 3:00PM with weekends off! I can be flexible with running home during the day for a potty break. Weekends are spent at home or doing a fun outdoor activity! At home, all dogs are treated like family! I live in an apartment complex with three fully fenced, off-leash dog areas, giving pups plenty of space to play and exercise. For dogs staying in my home, they must be dog and cat friendly, as I have my own pets. If I’m caring for your pup in your home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I’m Brycen! I have a strong love and passion for all animals. So, Im always looking for a new little buddy to play with. I love the outdoors and I usually try to get out and moving everyday, and I would enjoy to bring a dog with me. With my experience, I have learned that all dogs are very different, and I'll be sure to assist to your pet in a way that leaves them satisfied. I have worked at dog and cat boarding facilities in the past which allowed me to learn a lot about each breed and all the different personalities you may see. I’d love to meet you and your pets and see if we are a good fit! I’m a manager in Bigfork so I do work a 9-5, 40 hour work week, but I come home with lots of energy and love getting outside right after work! I live in a two bedroom quiet house with a fenced in yard and an attached doggy door and cat door. There is plenty of space to roam around.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, big and small, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m the go-to sitter for friends because I genuinely love being around animals and put a lot of care into making sure they feel safe, understood, and comfortable. During my psychology degree, I spent a year and a half studying Animal-Assisted Interventions, focusing on animal behavior, emotional attunement, human-animal connection, and therapeutic support work. My own dog is a huge part of my life — she travels around the country with me and goes almost everywhere by my side. I personally trained her with therapy/service dog foundations, which taught me a lot about patience, consistency, structure, and reading a dog’s needs and body language I'm fortunate that my days are centered around my dog, Bennie. I get up, let her out right away, then prepare her breakfast, and she eats while we start the morning together outside. I’m home most of the time and spend my days in the yard gardening, doing yard work, or working on projects around the property, so she’s with me and supervised throughout the day. I also always make sure there’s some form of engagement or mental stimulation so dogs are never bored or over-energized, whether that’s training, enrichment activities, or interactive play. If I need to run errands, Bennie usually comes with me and stays in the car if the weather is safe. If it’s too warm, she stays home in her calm, familiar environment instead. I’m typically only gone for short errands and make a point of never leaving her alone for long. When we’re not at home, we’re usually outside doing something active- swimming at the lake, going on hikes, going for runs, or taking long walks. Our lifestyle is very outdoors-oriented, and she’s included in almost everything I do Bennie is always at the top of my mind, and safety is my number one priority. I have a fully fenced, dog-proof yard with a secure gate that is always kept closed. I also have cameras on the property to monitor for wildlife or anything unsafe outside. Inside the home, I use non-toxic, pet-safe cleaning products and avoid harsh chemicals. I’m very mindful of anything dogs could be sensitive to, including what they’re exposed to, what they play with, and what they’re given. I only use safe toys and bones that are appropriate and supervised. Overall, I focus on creating a calm, secure environment where dogs can relax, explore, and feel completely safe while still having structure and supervision
“Whitney was amazing & we couldn’t be happier about Chevy’s stay at her house! She is energetic, positive, and very friendly. It was fun to get pictures & hear about how well he was doing. He’s a pretty spoiled lab & we loved that he got a ton of love & attention over there. We spent a few days in Glacier, but knew he was having as much fun as we were! Highly recommend!!! We will definitely use her again when we come back this way.”
“Elizabeth is a very kind person. I booked 2 separate days and my puppy was so excited to be there the second day. I was very pleased to have found such a good home to leave my puppy. I will definitely book again with Elizabeth.”
“Devonna was awesome! She made Petey feel like he was at home and made us feel super-comfortable with having him pet-sit for the first time. She was extremely flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. We will definitely book again!”
“Maisie Jane had a great time on her first overnights away from me. I got lots of great photos and communication about how she was doing while she was there. Thank you so so much for taking such good care of my sweet baby dog, Shauna, Deanna and Cody!”
“Kassidy was great with our dog Newton. He was there for a full week and appeared to be having a great time based on the photos sent. Newton is over 13 years old and we worried about leaving him so long, but he did really well under Kassidy’s care.”
“Nia was amazing. Our puppy can be a bit of a problem child and from the sounds of it, he was not a very good boy when he was with her. Her communication was very clear and effective and she handled the situation extremely professionally and with grace. I would not hesitate to direct anyone needing sitting services in the Flathead lake area to her.”
“Awesome! Our dog had an incredible time staying with Kelly. Kelly communicated well, was responsive and responsible with our dog. Gracie got to play with other dogs, go on long walks and even go for a swim! Kelly sent lots of photos and took very good care of our pup. Her place has such wonderful outdoor areas for dogs and she is knowledgeable about dog behavior and care. Highly recommend!”
