Personalized care for your dog or cat - Essex

“Sherri was a dog parents dream! She was knowledgeable, caring, and responsive. Would highly recommend if you’re traveling to the area or live locally.”

“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!”

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!”

About: I have been working with dogs and training dogs for about 8 years now. All different breeds, sizes and ages! I have experience medicating animals and having structure for those puppies! I would love to get to know your animals and help care for them on those days they need just a little extra exercise or love! I currently work 4 days a week with an hour lunch break so I could easily stop by for a drop in visit or a 30 minute walk! I cater to each pets needs. If they need love and a quick potty break or a walk and exercise! Each animal is different on what they need and I will work towards making sure their ever need is cared for!

“So wonderful, very commutative and kept me updated everyday. Will be using their services again.”

“Kaitlyn was a wonderful sitter. As a first experience with a cat sitting service, everything could not have gone more smoothly. Kaitlyn quickly responded to all my inquires before and during her house sitting. She provided pictures and positive feedback whenever I requested an update. My 2 little girls were obviously happy and well taken care of during her stay. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals large and small since I was little. That varying from just dogs and cats to large farm animals. I’ve worked in animal care taking for around 3 years now. But have way more years of experience caring for my own animals and farm animals I’m currently trying to get more hours for saving up for college in the fall. I’m working part time and have a lot of availability in the mornings mostly since I usually work in the late evenings. I can also do overnight stays as long as your comfortable. I follow whatever instructions that my clients give me. I can leash them up to go outside if needed if you don’t have fenced yards. I can walk them as well and make sure they have plenty of fresh water 24/7 and that they are being fed properly

“Whitney is the dog whisperer! Her home is ideal for leaving your dog… We left our 80 pound white Labrador retriever there and she came home exhausted and happy! We were camping in West glacier and needed a place to leave our dog so we could go hiking, and Whitney‘s place was perfectly located for the park entrance. She and her boyfriend Severin are amazing humans. Highly recommend her.!”

“Sherri was very professional and an awesome Fur Baby care taker. I felt very at ease leaving my Fur child with her. Wazi has a great time and I will definitely use her again !”

Diane M.

“Kelly is the ?, we will be leaving Doug with her when we come back. Incredibly nice, friendly, and an obvious dog person. She went on a hike with our man and took him swimming, prides herself on making sure your pup is tired when you pick them up. 10/10 recommend”

“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. :)”

Desiree H.

“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!”

Rowan W.

“Kaitlyn took great care of Blue over several walks while we were away. He was well looked after and Kaitlyn was a pleasure to schedule with as well as completely reliable and very communicative during the week. Will book again, thank you, Kaitlyn!”

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.

About: About Me: Hi, I’m Shauna, a dedicated dog lover from the Willow Glen neighborhood in Kalispell! I live on a spacious 1.26 acre of land with a securely fenced backyard, ideal for dogs to run, play, and relax. My 8-year-old Chihuahua and my mom’s 10-year-old Yorkie are my furry sidekicks, and I’ve cared for dogs my entire life. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing home-away-from-home experience for your pup. Inspired by countless hours of César Millan’s Dog Whisperer, I use his positive techniques to encourage balanced behaviors and gently redirect unwanted ones with healthy rules, boundaries and limitations. I’m experienced with dogs’ needs, from managing separation anxiety to maintaining feeding routines to administering medications. My pet-proofed home has no toxic plants, and I offer a cozy space for naps and play. I can send daily photo and video updates to keep you connected. As a background-checked sitter, I prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. Whether it’s kennel-free dog boarding, walking, or house sitting in Kalispell, I’m here to give your dog tailored care. Contact me to discuss your pup’s needs and arrange a meet-and-greet! Services: Boarding (Limited Basis): $80/night (includes lots of supervised playtime outside, feeding and cuddles). Drop-In Visits: $25/30-minute visit (feeding, potty breaks, playtime). House Sitting: $75/night (care in your home for 1 house pet. Cost for additional pets negotiable). Dog Walking: $25/30-minute walk (1–2 dogs). Daycare: $45/day (drop-off care for small/medium/large dogs up to 9 hours. Overtime rate $20/hr.) Experience: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, like Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Pomeranians, German Pointers, English Pointers, German Shepherds, Labs, lovable mutts, cats and even horses, including my own pets and those of friends and family. I apply César Millan’s techniques to maintain calm, balanced behaviors and ensure a happy stay. I’m comfortable with special diets and reinforcing training. Availability: See schedule for availability. Boarding available on weekends and select weekdays (book early for holidays). Drop-ins, walks, and daycare offered Monday–Friday, 6 AM–9 PM. House sitting by request. Safety: My acre of land features a secure, fully fenced backyard, and my home is pet-proofed for safety. I send daily updates and follow your pup’s routine to keep them comfortable. My mom and 23 year old son, both avid dog lovers, live with me and will be here for those short times I have to be away. I'm currently working part time and the calendar will reflect my availability. When I am pet-sitting in my home, my mom and 23 year old son who both live with me, will be available if I need to go to an appointment. As I mentioned in my bio, my 1.26-acre property features a secure, fully fenced backyard, and my home is pet-proofed with no toxic plants. I send daily updates via text and follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and safe, kennel-free for comfort.
