“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!”
“Lucy was terrific taking care of our 2 Havanese. She communicated on a regular basis and sent lots of photos. Would definitely use her services again and highly recommend.”
“So glad I found Olivia to watch our dog while we were gone! Great at communicating and her yard is so great for dogs to run and play safely! My dog came home happy and tired from having so much fun playing! We already rebooked for a future trip and will book more in the future if needed!”
“Morgan did an amazing job watching our 2 large dogs (Great Pyrenees and Labrador Retriever) for over a week and that is no easy task! She sent picture updates and both dogs came home happy & healthy! We will definitely use Morgan to watch our dogs again in the future.”
“Whitney did a great job and obviously cares about and loves dogs. Jasper was so tired from playing with other dogs and happy. Great communication fast respond times and sent adorable pictures. I would strongly recommend working with Whitney.”
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.
“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.”
“Shannon took great care of our sweet senior dog while we were away for a week. Our dog was very happy and well cared for In her home and we are so happy to have found such a wonderful pet sitter.”
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
“Becky and her family took excellent care of Hank. She shared frequent updates and kept us posted on how he was doing. If we come back to Whitefish anytime soon, we know who we're calling! Thanks!”
“Bonnie and Clyde had a great time with Kelly! She took them on great adventures and even let them cuddle with her. So thankful! Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Brycen was great! We have a 1.5 year old chocolate lab with a lot of energy. We received updates about how our puppy was doing. She also seemed happy when we went to pick her up. Would recommend Brycen!”
“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.”
About: I am a full time Physical Therapist living in Whitefish with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I absolutely love animals. I am active and love the outdoors, so I will be more than happy to run or walk your dog as needed. I've been caring for animals since I was in high school and have had experience with all shapes, sizes, and ages. That being said, I have no problem giving medications, training, etc. I am quick to respond to calls/texts and give updates regularly while owners are away or at work and so forth. My goal is to go through your animals’ daily routine as closely as possible. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be in contact with you as well as your pets soon! I’m currently working full time as a Physical Therapist and have some flexibility in my schedule to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pup. I work 8-10 hour days and if the location is right, can drop by over lunch for a potty break if needed. I will care for your pet at your home as close as possible to their regular schedule. If a walk morning and night is needed, they’ll get it. If snuggling on the couch is more important, we’ll do it!

“Jessica is very caring and attentive to our pets needs. Our cats learned to trust her and enjoyed each of her visits. We’d highly recommend Jessica to others. She provided prompt updates and photos of the drop ins with our cats.”

“Absolutely fabulous help!! I was really worried, and sheer last minute panic helped me A) find Rover, and B) discover Whitney. She accepted a booking even though it was only hours before, and took great care of our baby. Definitely will be requesting a booking with her again!!”
“Brittany was wonderful and very responsive and attentive to my 3 cats. Gave me peace of mind while I was away during Thanksgiving holiday. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing a dependable drop in sitter for their cats. Thank you!”
“Brooke took such amazing care of my senior cat and home! She sent me updates and photos daily. She even gave my cat some emergency breathing treatments when he had asthma attacks. I'm so glad I had her watching my sweet boy while I was gone. I'll definitely be using her again!”
“Courtney was great! My cat has separation anxiety as well as other health issues that require medication. Courtney spent a lot of time with my cat and gave him is medicine. In short, my cat didn't even miss me...which is a good thing!”
About: Cats are my absolute favorite—I honestly adore them all. I’ve cared for cats for years and know how to handle everything from playful kittens to shy or senior cats. My duties include feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering medications when needed, and of course endless cuddles (if your kitty approves!). I’m reliable, professional, and genuinely happiest when I’m around cats, so your feline will always be in loving hands.
“Eileen is absolutely the best! She came over beforehand to meet my cat and I was able to tell right away how genuine and caring of a person she is. She sent me lots of pictures of him daily (5 visits) and sent me messages throughout that made me feel very comfortable being away from my kitty. When I came home the place looked great and Merlin was super happy and content! I will definitely be booking Eileen the next time I am out of town. Highly recommend her!”
“Riley was amazing! She sent pictures and updates every day, and took time out of her day to come do a meet and greet. I came back to a clean space, fresh water, and my cat was well taken care of and happy!”
“Sarah really did a wonderful job while I was away taking care of and giving some extra love to my cats while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
About: Hi, my name is Shaima and I’ve had dogs my whole life! Big and small, to fluffy or almost hairless. I’ve been training my own dogs since the young age of 10, with the help of dog training tv shows! Also, I’ve been dog sitting my sisters two beautiful pit bulls for years, as she’s an avid traveler. I’m always up for whatever your dogs want to do! They want to play fetch? Awesome. Want to go for a walk? Be my guest. Nap time? You can never take too many naps. I’m sure I can give your special little pup the most love and attention. I never met a dog I didn’t love! I hope you will pick me to care for your beloved four legged friends.
“My chihuahua was so happy with Natalie that she got the zoomies, she is usually really timid so there is no better sign than that! Loved having pics & updates during the visit and would absolutely have Natalie over again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Columbia Falls
“This was our first time leaving our pup with anyone other than a groomer and Whitney was wonderful!! She had great communication, loving, and was so sweet with our Stella. We were so pleased and wish she lived near us in Florida so we could use her more frequently! Thank you Whitney! Can’t wait to see you next year.”
“Kelly was timely with her responses to our questions prior to having our dog Frankie spend the day with her. When we arrived she let us know her plan for the day which included hiking to the river. Although we explained that he'd never had the opportunity to swim, he clearly loved the water. He ran right in without hesitation. Kelly sent us pictures of Frankie to keep us up to date. We wouldn't hesitate to have Frankie spend the day with Kelly again.”
“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. :)”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Our dog stayed with Sophie for the day while we went to Glacier National Park. Everything worked out perfectly. Our dog was well taken care of in their home with a large fenced back yard. Our dog came back home happy and tired from a very fun day. We would certainly have her watch our dog anytime.”
About: During the summer, I have pretty open flexibility! I am an educator and have the summers off to help with all of your pet care service needs! I am passionate about loving and caring for pets. As somebody who loves to travel, I know how stressful it can be to find a reliable sitter to watch your furbabies. I’ve taken care of dogs and pets for the last 15+ years. I grew up sitting, walking, and loving pets with care. I have experience with puppies through senior dogs, as well as cats of all ages. I am comfortable administering meds and adhering to specific schedules and routines. Please contact me with any specific questions and I would be happy to accommodate accordingly. From June through the end of August, my daily schedule is flexible to accommodate your pet’s needs. With my own dog, we get in at least 1-2 walks per day with longer walks on the weekends, and I would love to create a schedule with your dog for consistent exercise as well! A tired dog is a happy dog! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog of my own to help make your dog feel comfortable. I am able to crate your dog, if that is something you’re interested in.
“Riley was great with our lab George while we explored the area for the day! She was wonderful to be flexible last minute when we realized I booked the wrong day! Will use again!”
“Had a wonderful experience with Alaina! She was willing to do a meet and greet with her dogs ahead of time so I’d feel comfortable leaving my pup with them while we spent the days in the park. She took such good care of Maggie, taking her on multiple walks and letting her play at the beach. My dog came home happy and tired, and was excited to be dropped off the next morning. Alaina clearly loves dogs, and treated my pup like one of her own. Such peace of mind to have a safe, fun place for your pet to be while we explored Glacier. I would absolutely work with Alaina again!”
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!
“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.”
“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”
“If it was possible to rate higher than 5 stars, I would. Shannon and her family are absolutely wonderful with our dogs and I don’t worry about a thing when I leave them. They come home happy and completely tuckered out!”
“Working with Sarah was a pleasure. She was responsive to arrangements and questions. Sarah arrived on time and immediately our dogs both loved her. They were well cared for while we were away from our campsite on a whitewater rafting trip. If you need someone to look after your pups while you hike or raft in Glacier then she’s the person you should choose!”

“Taylor is great, we have booked with her lots of times! She has taken care of our puppy as she has grown through all different stages and has always been very understanding, caring and patient with Milo. She is always flexible and replies quickly so easy to communicate with and sends lots of pictures!”
“We arrange for Chris to walk Snickers while we were gone for the whole day exploring Glacier. Chris was very responsive, came and got our girl and gave her a great walk. Would definitely recommend Chris for any Dow walking needs.”

“Sandy is amazing! Professional, courteous, responsible and experienced. She not only came over for a meet and greet, but took extra care with our dog when she walked her for the first time. Highly recommend!”

About: Hey y’all! I have an immense love for all animals, and have been lucky enough to be surrounded by them throughout my years. From the Cliffords to the Pee Wees of the dog/cat world I will treat them as if they were my own. (I hope to get my own soon). If they are the unsociable I know some great trails were we can enjoy nature in peace-which I prefer. I have experience with administering medication as I’ve been an extra hand in taking care of a friends dog who was hit by a vehicle. If there are any needs I am not accustomed to, I’m a quick learner. Im a high-spirited gal with a welcoming personality. I am new to the area and would love to be more involved with my community. I’m an early riser and very active. I would enjoy the opportunity to have a little side-kick to share my time. With whatever service you require of me I will treat your pet as my own and follow any directions you may have. I am very communicative. I know our pets are our children so updates are needed. I would prefer to stay at the clients house for overnights so your animal can be in their comfort zone-you won’t even know I was there as I am neat and tidy. Whatever energy your pup brings I’m ready for. I love a good cuddle or an energy booster.
About: With over 7 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve handled everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets. My care includes walks, feeding, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, giving medications, and plenty of affection. I treat every animal like family—keeping them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, professional, and always bring a positive, happy energy to every visit. I work a few days a week at a local café but always get off in the early afternoon, giving me plenty of time for walks, play, and just hanging out with your pets. I never work late nights, so I can be fully present to make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I help pets feel safe and build trust by coming to their home and keeping their environment calm, familiar, and consistent. I follow their usual routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel secure and comfortable. I approach every pet gently, letting them come to me at their own pace, and offer plenty of positive reinforcement like treats, praise, and cuddles when appropriate. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, relaxed, and confident while their owners are away.

“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!”
“Lucy was terrific taking care of our 2 Havanese. She communicated on a regular basis and sent lots of photos. Would definitely use her services again and highly recommend.”
“So glad I found Olivia to watch our dog while we were gone! Great at communicating and her yard is so great for dogs to run and play safely! My dog came home happy and tired from having so much fun playing! We already rebooked for a future trip and will book more in the future if needed!”
“Morgan did an amazing job watching our 2 large dogs (Great Pyrenees and Labrador Retriever) for over a week and that is no easy task! She sent picture updates and both dogs came home happy & healthy! We will definitely use Morgan to watch our dogs again in the future.”
“Whitney did a great job and obviously cares about and loves dogs. Jasper was so tired from playing with other dogs and happy. Great communication fast respond times and sent adorable pictures. I would strongly recommend working with Whitney.”
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.
“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.”
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
“Becky and her family took excellent care of Hank. She shared frequent updates and kept us posted on how he was doing. If we come back to Whitefish anytime soon, we know who we're calling! Thanks!”
“Bonnie and Clyde had a great time with Kelly! She took them on great adventures and even let them cuddle with her. So thankful! Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Brycen was great! We have a 1.5 year old chocolate lab with a lot of energy. We received updates about how our puppy was doing. She also seemed happy when we went to pick her up. Would recommend Brycen!”
“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.”
About: I am a full time Physical Therapist living in Whitefish with my boyfriend and our two dogs. I absolutely love animals. I am active and love the outdoors, so I will be more than happy to run or walk your dog as needed. I've been caring for animals since I was in high school and have had experience with all shapes, sizes, and ages. That being said, I have no problem giving medications, training, etc. I am quick to respond to calls/texts and give updates regularly while owners are away or at work and so forth. My goal is to go through your animals’ daily routine as closely as possible. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be in contact with you as well as your pets soon! I’m currently working full time as a Physical Therapist and have some flexibility in my schedule to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pup. I work 8-10 hour days and if the location is right, can drop by over lunch for a potty break if needed. I will care for your pet at your home as close as possible to their regular schedule. If a walk morning and night is needed, they’ll get it. If snuggling on the couch is more important, we’ll do it!
“Elizabeth was amazing! My dog stayed at her home, was loved like family, and I came back to the happiest pup. As a first-time sitter user, it was completely stress-free and put my mind at ease.”
“Sue is the absolute best, and I can't recommend her highly enough. I'm crazy about my two medium-sized high energy brother-sister rescue dogs who are usually nervous around people, and I have no worries when they're with Sue. They immediately settled in and clearly felt comfortable at her place. The love her fenced backyard and going on long leash walks walks her. One of my pups takes a medication that is critical to receive at the same time every day, and Sue always remembers to give it to her and keeps us updated when she does. She also sends updates throughout the day, which I love! It puts my mind at ease and I always know they're in good hands. Five stars all around!”
