Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hot Springs

About: Hello there, my name is Ashley! I am an active dog lover with a flexible schedule! If you're anything like me I know how hard it can be to leave your dog alone at home knowing how sad they must be waiting for your return... trying to focus but always wondering if they spend too much time cooped up or if they are getting enough attention. I was once in your shoes trying to figure out who the heck I'm trusting to take care of my fur child all day! I’m familiar with dogs who need medication and lots of attention as my dogs need those things daily. I'm VERY familiar with giving oral medication on a strict timeline (4 years experience) and I'm confident I could learn injections if needed. Please consider me in your next hunt for a dog sitter/walker or whatever it is you may need! Your fur child is loved here! ❤️ I am so grateful and excited to be hearing from you! I currently work from home and create my own schedule for the most part so I am pretty open to work with your schedule and needs. Because of my living arrangements I can not offer care at my home but when I am with your pet in your home I can promise lots of love and attention for the time I am there! I’m very good at following specific instructions and will make sure your fur baby doesn’t feel lonely all day while missing you.

“Jenny came to meet Khloe before our booking and I could tell Khloe loved her. Jenny was definitely comfortable with dogs. She did drop in care of Khloe for two days and everything went perfectly. She sent me videos and photos and messages and I couldn't have asked for things to work any better. Definitely recommend 100%.”

“Bodie loved his stay at Madison’s! She was super understanding of his anxious personality & he seemed to settle right in. He had a blast racing around with the other doggos & came home a happy, tired pup. He’ll be staying with Madison whenever we’re in the area :)”

About: I currently work at Flathead Pet Emergency as a technician and have been in the field for 3 years. I’ve been taking care of all animals from birds to dogs to turtles since I was little and especially value senior care and mental enrichment for the little ones! I currently work 12 Saturday and Sunday so I’m not available 10am-10pm but anytime before or after. And weekdays anytime except from 4-12 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I live in Bigarm but I work in Kalispell. I believe in fear free relationships. So no forcing my love on them and if they want their space I’ll let them have it! Food is usually the way to an animals heart and I have no problem feeding my way to their love. Having experience in vet med I have no problem giving medications from oral meds to injections or taking care of any other special needs you may have for your pet.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses and cows all my life. I have helped neighbors and as I have grown my parents with their pets when they are gone. I love animals of all kinds. I can do a few times a week during the daytime until I start my new job. Then after that my schedule will have to change. Can do early evenings too. I cannot have your pets in my apartment building unfortunately. However, I am more than happy to care for them in your home. Can't wait to meet your fur babies!

“Zorair was great and helped with a last minute dog walking request. He sent a lot of photos so I knew my dog was well taken care of”

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.
