“Ozzie absolutely loves going to hang out with Sunnee. He runs to her as soon as I open the car door. Sunnee has a very calm and grounded energy. Ozzie never feels anxious about staying with her. Highly recommend.”
“Olivia and the whole family were exceptionalllll!!! They have an amazing play space and their dogs are so friendly!! I knew Charlie was in good hands the moment I dropped her off for four days while I was hiking in Glacier NP! I got constant updates and photos and Charlie seemed so happy! She was actually upset I picked her up!! Thank you so much Olivia & fam!!”
“The stay with Devonna went great. We wanted more attention than a standard boarding kennel where our dog would be let out a few times, Devonna provided that. Devonna was flexible in arranging a dropoff time. Our dog, Winston, got along very well with Devonna's dog, Duke, and they played together. Devonna lives in an apartment but there is a green space next door and Devonna walked the dogs there regularly. Winston seemed very comfortable at Devonna's, got extra attention and cuddles that he likes. Devonna sent us an update and picture. We'll use Devonna in the future.”
“Morgan and her family were so amazing to Xena to make her feel as comfortable as possible while having to be away from us. We've never had to leave our dog with someone she doesn't know before, so we were very nervous about how she'd do. Morgan sent numerous updates and pictures everyday, which really set our minds at ease. We will definitely book with her again when the time comes. It's such a relief knowing we have someone we can depend on, and that is home with her 99% of the time!”
“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.”
“Bear had a wonderful time with Elisabeth! She sent daily updates and pictures, and I could tell Bear was happy and well taken care of in each photo :) Would 100% send Bear to her again!”
“Andy took great care of our lab. He gave her plenty of exercise and updated us daily with photos. He genuinely seemed to enjoy our dog which means a lot to us. I highly recommend Andy if you need someone to watch your dog.”
“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!”
“Wilson and Kali did great job taking care of Max! She seems to have a lot of fun playing with the pack in that giant yard! If we get to travel through glacier national again, Wilson and Kali will definitely be our first go-to sitter!”
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.
“Sherri is absolutely wonderful! My senior pup is set in his ways and not a big fan of change, but did amazing with Sherri. She really puts her fur-friends first, sticks to their routines, sets up her home so it's comfortable for them and really understands their needs...as well as the needs of the pup's parents! We will absolutely leave our guy with Sherri again!”
“Alyssa is amazing!! We had so many changes in our plans and she was flexible and responsive. Our pup was also feeling a it under the weather and she put out minds at ease with frequent updates and clear communication. She’s sweet and warm and her love for animals is obvious. We would definitely rebook with her anytime we’re in the area and can’t recommend her enough. Thanks Alyssa!!”
“Oh my goodness! Neville and Ned had the best time with Vicki and Clint. They were treated so well and loved. Our fur babies love to be with their humans and you could tell they were very happy because when we picked them up they greeted us but then went back for more cuddles with V and C🥰🥰🥰🥰”
“Whitney took wonderful care of my dog Pepper while I was away for a long weekend. Pepper can be shy and nervous at first with new people and Whitney took the time to make her comfortable and happy. Whitney sent me daily updates and photos letting me know that Pepper was settling in and doing well which gave me so much peace of mind. I fully recommend Whitney to watch your fur babies while you're away as she treats them with love and care as if they were her own!”
“Alaina was absolutely amazing for our big dog, Cedar. We needed last minute boarding for him due to myself needing an operation. She communicated very well the whole time. Videos showed that Cedar had a ton of fun with her dogs. Cedar has anxiety and she did everything possible to make him feel comfortable. I would 100% use her again.”
“Arrow had a wonderful time with Sharmaine and Monique! They were great and very considerate. Lots of playtime and walks and all sorts of attention. Would 💯 recommend!”

My 2 little girls were obviously happy and well taken care of during her stay. I highly recommend her!”

“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for my cat Gimli. She sent me photo (and funny video) updates about Gimli almost every day after asking if I want to receive frequent updates. She responded promptly, was super flexible about key pickup/dropoff, and even checked in on Gimli an extra time for free because she felt that he was feeling really lonely. I'm never going to use another cat sitter again! Jessica, you seriously rock!”

“We always use Rover when we travel and Morgan is as good as they get. She’s capable, kind, understanding, and every picture she sent showed my dogs with the biggest smiles I think any of us had ever seen on their faces. They came back to us fed, happy, and exhausted. Thank you for that peace of mind while we hiked Glacier, Morgan!”

“We could not have picked nicer people to care for our dog, Daisy on our visit to Glacier National Park. It was very convenient and about 20 minutes to the park. Emily and her family were so caring and loving to our pet. We had 100% confidence while Daisy was there to be safe and well cared for. Many thanks for a great day at your home for our pup!!”
“Tiffany is a wonderful dog sitter. We used her doggy day care service while heading up to Glacier National Park for the day. She was flexible, super responsive, sent tons of photos and definitely set my mind at ease with her frequent communication. My dog can be a handful at times and doesn't get along with every dog, but her lab Henry is super sweet and friendly and they got along just fine.

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!

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.
“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!”
“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!”

We arrived home from our trip, to a content dog and you could tell she got a lot of lovin' from Lauren. Lauren was laid back, punctual, trustworthy, and very kind to our furchild. Will book with her again!”
“Jessica responded quickly to my request for dog walking, and was quick to reply to all my messages. She was friendly, professional, and prompt. When she met my shy rescue dog, it was clear that she had a lot of good experience working with dogs and animals, and that she is a genuine dog lover. My dog warmed to her immediately, where she usually needs some time to get to know someone before trusting them completely. Jessica sent me photos daily, and my husband (who works late) said he could tell that our happy dog had gotten some good exercise and a walk when he got home. I would recommend Jessica without hesitation and will likely request her again in the future.”

“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!”
“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!”

“Ozzie absolutely loves going to hang out with Sunnee. He runs to her as soon as I open the car door. Sunnee has a very calm and grounded energy. Ozzie never feels anxious about staying with her. Highly recommend.”
“Olivia and the whole family were exceptionalllll!!! They have an amazing play space and their dogs are so friendly!! I knew Charlie was in good hands the moment I dropped her off for four days while I was hiking in Glacier NP! I got constant updates and photos and Charlie seemed so happy! She was actually upset I picked her up!! Thank you so much Olivia & fam!!”
“The stay with Devonna went great. We wanted more attention than a standard boarding kennel where our dog would be let out a few times, Devonna provided that. Devonna was flexible in arranging a dropoff time. Our dog, Winston, got along very well with Devonna's dog, Duke, and they played together. Devonna lives in an apartment but there is a green space next door and Devonna walked the dogs there regularly. Winston seemed very comfortable at Devonna's, got extra attention and cuddles that he likes. Devonna sent us an update and picture. We'll use Devonna in the future.”
“Morgan and her family were so amazing to Xena to make her feel as comfortable as possible while having to be away from us. We've never had to leave our dog with someone she doesn't know before, so we were very nervous about how she'd do. Morgan sent numerous updates and pictures everyday, which really set our minds at ease. We will definitely book with her again when the time comes. It's such a relief knowing we have someone we can depend on, and that is home with her 99% of the time!”
“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.”
“Bear had a wonderful time with Elisabeth! She sent daily updates and pictures, and I could tell Bear was happy and well taken care of in each photo :) Would 100% send Bear to her again!”
“Andy took great care of our lab. He gave her plenty of exercise and updated us daily with photos. He genuinely seemed to enjoy our dog which means a lot to us. I highly recommend Andy if you need someone to watch your dog.”
“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!”
“Wilson and Kali did great job taking care of Max! She seems to have a lot of fun playing with the pack in that giant yard! If we get to travel through glacier national again, Wilson and Kali will definitely be our first go-to sitter!”
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.
“Alyssa is amazing!! We had so many changes in our plans and she was flexible and responsive. Our pup was also feeling a it under the weather and she put out minds at ease with frequent updates and clear communication. She’s sweet and warm and her love for animals is obvious. We would definitely rebook with her anytime we’re in the area and can’t recommend her enough. Thanks Alyssa!!”
“Oh my goodness! Neville and Ned had the best time with Vicki and Clint. They were treated so well and loved. Our fur babies love to be with their humans and you could tell they were very happy because when we picked them up they greeted us but then went back for more cuddles with V and C🥰🥰🥰🥰”
“Whitney took wonderful care of my dog Pepper while I was away for a long weekend. Pepper can be shy and nervous at first with new people and Whitney took the time to make her comfortable and happy. Whitney sent me daily updates and photos letting me know that Pepper was settling in and doing well which gave me so much peace of mind. I fully recommend Whitney to watch your fur babies while you're away as she treats them with love and care as if they were her own!”
“Arrow had a wonderful time with Sharmaine and Monique! They were great and very considerate. Lots of playtime and walks and all sorts of attention. Would 💯 recommend!”
“Tiffany took great care of our dogs. She gave us so many updates and pictures. She took them out on walks and kept them busy, they were so tired and exhausted by the time they got home they just wanted to rest.”
“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!”
