Personalized care for your dog or cat - Jessup
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Jessup
“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 and her family have truly become a second family for our Pup. So grateful to have found such a trustworthy and reliable family. Only out of necessity will we be asking anyone else when life takes us out of the area.”
“Sherri is the best dog mom ever!! Totally lives your dog and I could not have been more comfortable leaving my pup with her. If you need pup sitting in Bigfork then consider this your only option! Thanks Sherri!”
“Andy was so helpful with our senior guy Koji and our crazy one Sesame! He also facilitated a drop off for us. He kept us well informed with photos and messages. We would definitely use Andy again!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
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
“Sophie and her family were so great. Very communicative. They sent me photos of my pup while I was gone and kept me updated with how he was doing. They have a great place for dogs to stay and a nice yard for the dogs to play in. This was definitely like a vacation for my dog!”
“Shauna was great. She has a fantastic fenced back yard with lots of shady spots to hang out. From the first moment we met it was very clear to me that Shauna truly loves dogs! I was very pleased and will most certainly have her sit Tucker again. Thank you Shauna.”
“Our minds were at ease dropping Martha off with Becky! She kept us updated sending pictures and videos of Martha playing with her daughter. Becky worked with us last minute which was a lifesaver. I would definitely work with Becky again ?”
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!
“First things first…Tiffany is a sweetheart! She sent us photos at least once on a daily basis. Which all dog owners know is HUGE! She was always quick to respond. She even accommodated me when I needed to drop my boy off a few hours early. Thank you Tiffany you really helped us not only to enjoy Cancun but to really relax and unplug knowing the our boy was in great hands!! Wibble says you can have him over anytime! Haha ?”

My parents' friends have had dogs as well whome Ive had the pleasure of caring for on occasion.

About: Hi! I’m Rachel, a dependable and caring animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to stick to your pet’s normal routine whether that means long walks, playtime, medication schedules, or just extra cuddles and companionship. I have experience managing multiple pets at once and am comfortable with energetic dogs, shy animals, and senior pets who may need a little extra attention. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure pet parents feel at ease. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members!

“Such a great experience and we loved getting Whitney’s daily updates and photos. Our kitty did amazing and we didn’t worry at all, knowing she was being taken care of.”
About: I grew up with dogs in my household, small and larger. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a family where outdoor activities were a common occurrence. We would snowshoe with the dogs in the winter and take them to the lake in the summer. Currently, I have a senior dog named Kota, who is almost 11 and has arthritis. These days, we tend to have shorter walks on more flat trails but still love to get outside for some activity. I also have a 7-year-old beagle who is still very energetic and active. I do have to adapt to each dogs needs and take pride in being in tune with my dogs and how they are feeling. I do have a job outside of pet sitting but I am flexible with my schedule due to the nature of my work, I will always try to accommodate to the best of my ability. I like to make sure that active dogs get the exercise they require, and plenty of love and attention. It is important to me that they are comfortable and happy while their family is away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Jessup
“We needed a last minute (same day) daycare for our puppy while we were visiting from out of state and Morgan was wonderful! She responded to our request very quickly, she was flexible and she sent us multiple updates and photos. We would absolutely use her again. I highly recommend her!”
“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!”
“Whitney was absolutely incredible! She was very knowledgeable and confident in taking in our two dogs for daycare while we enjoyed Glacier National Park for three days. Whitney is conveniently located super close to the West Entrance so if you’re going to the park and need someone to watch your fur baby then look no further.”
“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”
About: Growing up, I have always had dogs as pets ranging from big to small. My family even bred gold retrievers for many years. I will love and take care of your pets like if they are my own.

I am able to take your dog for runs or walks for your senior dog. If you are teaching your puppy basic commands I can assist.
“Shannon is awesome. She watched my 10 week old puppy for a couple hours while we went horse back riding. It was the first time I left my puppy with someone and I was nervous. Shannon sent me a bunch of pictures and updates throughout the stay. I got back a very tired and happy puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“We were blessed to find Tiffany with availability just one day prior to us needing her services. We were visiting Glacier National Park and traveled in our 5th wheel RV with our 2 Border Collies. We wanted to take some hikes in the park which no dogs are allowed on trails. Tiffany cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She provided photos with updates throughout the day. She has a fenced in backyard, 2 dogs of her own, and had 2 other dogs in her care. All the dogs got along with one another and our fur babies had a fun day which helped us to have a fun day! I highly recommend Tiffany and would use her again! Thank you for the ❤️ loving care. 😁”
“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!”
“Visiting from out of town, it was great to find Kaylea to watch Brutus for the day. Great communication and setup a meet and greet the day before. After picking Brutus up, he had so much fun he was ready for bed once we got back to the hotel. Would highly recommend Kaylea for dog services in the Whitefish/Kalispell area.”
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.
“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. :)”
“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!!”
“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: 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.
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!
“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!”

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.
“Lea was wonderful!! She came first for a meet and greet, so she could meet our Ellie and learn some tips for a good visit. She was so nice and reassuring...this is the first time we have ever used a dog sitter/walker. She sent a detailed text of her visit with Ellie, including pictures. Would highly recommend her! ?”
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.

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.

“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 and her family have truly become a second family for our Pup. So grateful to have found such a trustworthy and reliable family. Only out of necessity will we be asking anyone else when life takes us out of the area.”
“Andy was so helpful with our senior guy Koji and our crazy one Sesame! He also facilitated a drop off for us. He kept us well informed with photos and messages. We would definitely use Andy again!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
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
“Sophie and her family were so great. Very communicative. They sent me photos of my pup while I was gone and kept me updated with how he was doing. They have a great place for dogs to stay and a nice yard for the dogs to play in. This was definitely like a vacation for my dog!”
“Shauna was great. She has a fantastic fenced back yard with lots of shady spots to hang out. From the first moment we met it was very clear to me that Shauna truly loves dogs! I was very pleased and will most certainly have her sit Tucker again. Thank you Shauna.”
“Our minds were at ease dropping Martha off with Becky! She kept us updated sending pictures and videos of Martha playing with her daughter. Becky worked with us last minute which was a lifesaver. I would definitely work with Becky again ?”
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!
“First things first…Tiffany is a sweetheart! She sent us photos at least once on a daily basis. Which all dog owners know is HUGE! She was always quick to respond. She even accommodated me when I needed to drop my boy off a few hours early. Thank you Tiffany you really helped us not only to enjoy Cancun but to really relax and unplug knowing the our boy was in great hands!! Wibble says you can have him over anytime! Haha ?”
“Kelly was amazing! Our dog had a fantastic time swimming and playing with the other dogs. Super prompt with communicating and sent lots of pictures of Jackson over the weekend. I highly recommend her!”
“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.”
