I highly recommend Kenneth! Will definitely book again if I ever need a dog sitter in the future.”
“Wonderful dog sitters who took great care of my rescue dog Aspen while I was out of state. My dog got along perfectly with theirs and she’s pretty picky. I would highly recommend this sitter for anyone looking for a reliable place to keep their dog while away!!”
“Emma is extraordinary, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Cleo got tons of snuggles, comfortable lounging time, and plenty of exercise. She got long walks on her favorite trails and playtime with Emma’s dog, Brody. Emma is very experienced and confidently handled Cleo’s personality quirks and occasional reactivity. She also sent detailed updates and absolutely gorgeous photos. I would trust her with Cleo again in a heartbeat.”
“We’re repeat clients of Jen’s, and just left our dog Frankie with her for a week while on a trip where we were out of communication the whole time. How wonderful to leave her with someone where we know she’s watched, exercised, cared for, and treated like family. We highly recommend her for your pup as well.”

She sent lots of photo updates and Gus got lots of time hanging outside in her backyard and cuddling on the couch. I highly recommend Teresa and hope Gus can stay with her the next time I go out of town!”
“Lauren and Jeff were great! They were friendly and took good care of our dogs and we will definitely use them again. The dogs basically had a dog party vacation! Thank you!”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
About: I have previously owned Labradoodles so I have 18 years of experience with high energy dogs. I also have experience in taking care of dogs who require extra medical care. I love to walk, hike and go for runs with dogs but most importantly, I can give them love and attention while you are away. I am retired and looking for the opportunity to assist you in the care of your furry friends while you are working and or traveling. I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have a large fences back yard, with no pets of my own. At night I have a mud room for your dog to comfortably sleep in or if needed a pad to lay in a bedroom.
“Tlhis was my first time leaving my Aussie Steel with a dog sitter. He's with me almost 24/7 because of my job. I'm sure I had a much harder time than he did! Ben told me about some of his regulars that he watches, and that they would be coming when Steel wad there. From the videos that Ben sent to me and the updates, I could see Steel was in good company and doing great!! He got lots of outside time, ate well and was completely worn out from a hike when I picked him up! :) I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Ben”

About: Hi, I’m Grady! I’ve grown up caring for multiple high energy labradors, and have been pet sitting dog and cats for friends and family for years. I love hiking and would love to help make sure your dogs or cats are loved and taken care of while you are away! I’m currently a freshman at Portland State University looking to watch pets when I am at home for breaks! I have extremely high flexibility and am available pretty much any time of day all week to make sure your pets are cared for. I will leave your house as I found it, make sure your pets and home are secure when I am not there, and be careful to follow any rules you may have!

About: I grew up on a small organic farm outside of bozeman, we had a lots of animals growing up and we always had rescue dogs as well. I grew up taking care of cats and bunnies and dogs basically my whole life, I also dog sit consistently for a client in summers. I’m currently a full time student at U of M and my class times are random throughout the day so my schedule works perfectly for pet sitting, dog walking and drop ins anytime. I follow the routine I’m given by the owner and I like to be active so I’ll usually play or take the dog on a walks/hikes if the dog is up for it, otherwise I’ll just stick to the given feeding/exercise schedule and take care of the house and dog or cat like normal and leave everything as I found it.
“Alaina was a very caring and thoughtful cat sitter and house sitter for the week she took care of our 3 cats. Upon our return the cats seemed in good spirits and the house was clean and in order. We will definitely ask her back and hope she is available when we are in need again! Thank you Alaina!”
About: I've had my own pets for over ten years! I've been the go-to dog and cat sitter for friends and family since I could drive, everything from weekend trips to month long visits, I've always been happy to help! I've had my own cats growing up and had families I've sat for with 3-5 cats, so a little army of cats don't scare me! As a pet parent we all know we need extra hands sometimes!
“Nicole was wonderful with my old kitty! At eighteen years old, Lola needs a little attention and her food. Nicole did a great job of taking care of both and when I got back home Lola was relaxed. Thanks Nicole!”
About: I have been cat sitting since I was 10, and I grew up always having cats in the house. Unfortunately due to current living conditions I am unable to have a kitty right now which means I am really missing that connection and love any chance I can get to hang with a furry friend!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Upper Rattlesnake
“Ben does an excellent job in caring for your pet! Our dog was walked daily and had the advantage of spending the day with Ben’s good natured dog. Stress free environment with plenty of attention throughout the day. I highly recommend Ben as a caregiver. Just don’t take our spot! Truly a great experience for our dog and helped us tremendously. Thanks Ben!!!”
About: I have been caring for animals since pet sitting for my aunt and uncle’s 3 rowdy dogs as a teen, sometimes up to a month when they went on long trips. I also have cared for dogs of my own for most of my adult life and consider them to be members of the family. My current dog Ron has some special care needs which has taught me to be patient and sensitive to pups who need a little extra care and attention. I would love to welcome your furry buddy into our home and would treat them like another member of the family. I currently work from home so am able to give your pup lots of attention and exercise. I also am a very active person and love to frequent the local trails if that is something you would like for your pup. I have a fenced front and back yard and a dog door that can be locked if need be. I have multiple dog beds and also allow dogs on the furniture (I of course will not allow it if it’s a behavior you don’t want your dog to learn). Like I said, I consider them to be part of the family.
“Brianna was quick to respond to any message I sent,, she took my dog on a hike and tried her best to get all of his energy out. Thank you so much for accommodating Quinn last minute!”
“Kerry is a top notch dogsitter. Her and her husband took the greatest care of my dog. From playtime with her dogs to trips out and about,and treats and pets. She did an amazing job. Above and beyond. Thank you so much.”
“Seriously the best dogsitter ever! I was in town for an event with a schedule that kept changing so my plans were all over the place and Danielle was so helpful and came to the rescue last minute when I needed an extra day of daycare. My dog came home happy and he clearly had fun :) I've already booked Danielle again!”
“Jennifer was great! My puppy loved hanging out with her and the other dogs. Perfect backyard for lots of playtime and fun. Loved all the videos and pictures she sent throughout the day. I will be using her again and would recommend to everyone else!”
About: I am a full-time journalist who loves to get out on the weekends! I’m originally from Alaska and spend every opportunity I can getting outside with my 15-year-old border collie. I work from home and stay with the animals all day. We wake up early for potty breaks first thing in the morning. Dogs are allowed on the furniture for ultimate snuggles! I have a fenced yard with plenty of animal friends to keep your pet occupied and comfortable. The house is also large enough that if your animal needs space, we can cordon off an area for them to have peace and quiet.
About: Thought I'd try this app out to make an extra buck. I am a lover of all pets, well maybe not spiders. I grew up in the remote country of Wisconsin, with a bunch of farm animals, as well as cats and dogs. Growing up with pets, and farm animals is crucial for knowing animals. I'm always taking my roommates dog for walks, and to the dog park. We have a big fenced in yard in the heart of Missoula. Meru (my roommates female dog) is really friendly and loves all other cats and dogs. I would focus my energy on your dogs and cats of course, but if Meru and your dogs cross paths they'll be best friends for the day. Hope to hear from you, and lend a helping hand with your best friends. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and companionship while keeping a calm, clean environment. I also make time for photo/video updates so owners always know how their pets are doing. I enjoy building routines around each pet’s individual needs and personality. I care for every pet like they’re my own and focus heavily on safety, comfort, cleanliness, and communication. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and any special needs so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean environment with plenty of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and space to relax. I always introduce pets carefully and prioritize safety at all times. In clients’ homes, I respect their routines and instructions closely to help pets stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I keep feeding schedules, walks, litter boxes, medications, and daily care consistent while also providing regular photo and video updates for peace of mind. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“I had an excellent experience with Kenneth, who recently watched my dog, Arnie. Kenneth was incredibly flexible and accommodating with my schedule, which made everything so much easier. His kindness and genuine love for animals were evident from the start. He kept me updated with regular photos, showing how happy and well-cared-for Arnie was. I felt completely at ease knowing that Arnie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Kenneth to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: Greetings! I've grown up with adopted dogs and have raised one from a puppy to adulthood. My entire home is open to pups (human beds and furniture), but will adhere to any rules you have in your home. My neighborhood has a lot of kids and other dogs around, as well as large common areas for running around. Can administer medication via treats or orally.

My daily schedule is pretty flexible, and I'm open to hosting pups in my house or dropping in at the comfort of your pup's own home. Tell me all about your furry friend. Hoping I can meet you and your companion soon!

I'm able to accommodate frequent walk and bathroom break schedules, have experience taking multiple dogs in my car to hiking trails and other adventure areas. When I'm available to work, I'll frequently be with your pet throughout the day and overnight. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a quiet neighborhood with open grassy areas and safe sidewalks. Will frequently run into kids of all ages in the area, and they're very responsive to dogs of all temperaments. If in your home I'd like to know anything and everything to keep your pet safe and comfortable, if you have cameras indoors or outdoors, as well as anything else about your pet's routine.

About: I have taken care of neighbors and friends pets throughout my early teens up to the present. I have taken care of mostly dogs and cats but have cared for lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs and fish. I have trained my two dogs commands like sit, down, shake and wait. As a sitter/walker I will love spending time with your pets, as I miss my family‘s pets that are in my home town! I am a full time pharmacy student at the University of Montana so my falls and springs are pretty busy with class. However I will always make time to spend time with the pet(s) when I can. I will always try and make time for a daily walk if taking care of dogs and spend time playing with cats. Back at home I have two dogs and a cat. So I know that trash should be securely placed and poop should be picked up regularly in the yard and in public areas. I love my pets at home and show them lots of affection and love and I hope the people watching would do this too.
“Jessica is so wonderful! She was so sweet to our pup and gave us updates and pictures from the walk which made us so happy. She was able to help us out on short notice. We definitely recommend her!”

I am very active and I prioritize lots of outdoor time for my pets and others under my supervision. Safety, trust, and a welcoming environment are key when caring for pets in my home or a client's.

Keeping the vibe playful and safe is always the best approach.

I feel very comfortable around all kinds of dogs, and I know how to properly work with dogs with different personalities and needs. I work at the dog kennel 3-4 days a week but I am available in the morning, evenings, and overnight if needed. On the days I do not work I am available all day to walk and socialize with pets. I have a trip planned in August, so July and September are more open for me. In my home I have two dogs who are friendly and love company, we also have a big yard and lots of cozy dog beds. I am also available to stay at the pets home since that is usually more comfortable for them. I have house sat many times and dogs are often happier when they are in a familiar space.

“Brian was a lifesaver as we were visiting family in Missoula! He came for a meet and greet and our dogs took to him immediately, we have one who is a little skittish and she laid down at his feet within a few minutes. Brian was dependable, on time, very communicative, sent lots of pictures. Our two pups were very happy! Thanks Brian!”

She has been available to both overnight with my dogs as well as take them on walks and they have always come home happy and healthy! And they all love her dog too! She takes them on adventures and really cares for them. She is my go-to for trusted pet sitters! I highly recommend her!”
About: Howdy! My name is Emily and I’d love to hang out with your doggo(s)! I was raised in a home where the pets were just another one of the kids! I moved to Missoula about 8 years ago with my now husband (who is from here) to go back to school and return to my familiar roots in the mountain west. Previous to living in Missoula I was a professional dog walker and pet sitter for a company called Woof Walks in Oakland, CA (please feel free to ask me about my off leash adventures!) While I'm no longer working with animals full time, I'd love to continue to provide pet care services. I understand how hard it can be to find a dog sitter, let alone someone you feel comfortable leaving with your beloved pets. Whether I get to spend time with your dog just one time or on a reoccurring basis, I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your animals! I am currently workng remotely from home so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to taking care of your beloved fur babies! When I'm pet sitting, I adjust my day to revolve around you dog(s) and their needs! While I work remotely from my computer, I have flexibility to accommodate any feeding and walking schedules + play time and cuddles in between!
About: I am a responsible individual who will take wonderful care of your pets. I have experience pet sitting for individuals with large and small pets, including dogs and cats. I enjoy spending time outside, so taking your pets on walks and playing with them will help them burn their energy, settle their nerves, and enjoy their time with me. I am home for the summer from college, and I am looking for a job where I can take care of pets and spend time with them. I enjoy pet sitting and being able to take care of animals to hopefully allow them to be more comfortable while the owners are away. From my work over the summer, I am hoping to put my earnings back into my education when I move back to college in the fall. I will care for your pets by being engaged while exercising and playing with them, and keeping them on a leash if/when the pets are outside of the yard. In addition, I will always make sure the animals get their medications if necessary and have ample and suitable water and food for any time they are alone.

“Jennifer took such good care of Alaska! She sent frequent updates with pics, and Alaska had so much fun with her pups. Lots of play time and love! Thanks, Jennifer!”
“We were just in town for the Griz game, but she took them on a nice long hike while we were at the game. She sent pictures of the dogs having a fun time”
“Kenneth was great! He was so accommodating and welcoming and his family is so sweet. He even had a dog bed and a few toys prepared with a "Welcome Molly" sign on it! haha He sent an update during Molly's stay with him and it reassured me that she was doing well. I highly recommend Kenneth! Will definitely book again if I ever need a dog sitter in the future.”
“Wonderful dog sitters who took great care of my rescue dog Aspen while I was out of state. My dog got along perfectly with theirs and she’s pretty picky. I would highly recommend this sitter for anyone looking for a reliable place to keep their dog while away!!”
“Emma is extraordinary, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Cleo got tons of snuggles, comfortable lounging time, and plenty of exercise. She got long walks on her favorite trails and playtime with Emma’s dog, Brody. Emma is very experienced and confidently handled Cleo’s personality quirks and occasional reactivity. She also sent detailed updates and absolutely gorgeous photos. I would trust her with Cleo again in a heartbeat.”
“We’re repeat clients of Jen’s, and just left our dog Frankie with her for a week while on a trip where we were out of communication the whole time. How wonderful to leave her with someone where we know she’s watched, exercised, cared for, and treated like family. We highly recommend her for your pup as well.”
“Tavia did an excellent job with our Dora! She provided lots of picture updates, and had a very safe, dog-friendly home! We loved that we were leaving her in the hands of a safe and loving family. Will definitely book again with Tavia!”
“Andrea and her pup, Ruger, came through when we had an unexpected trip come up. She took care of our dog-girl with no issues at all. Would definitely use her again!”
“Nicole was so easy to work with and very accommodating! I couldn't appreciate it more, especially as we were coming from out of town. I would highly recommend her for all of your Missoula dog boarding needs!”
“Our older dog was well taken care of by Ellen. We received cute updates and quick communication. Would be happy to have her look after our Sidney again and Sidney would be happy to see her!”
“I was pretty nervous to leave my new rescue dog, Gus, overnight while I went out of town, but he immediately felt comfortable with Teresa! She sent lots of photo updates and Gus got lots of time hanging outside in her backyard and cuddling on the couch. I highly recommend Teresa and hope Gus can stay with her the next time I go out of town!”
“Lauren and Jeff were great! They were friendly and took good care of our dogs and we will definitely use them again. The dogs basically had a dog party vacation! Thank you!”
“Memo and Auggie were amazing!! They provided such thoughtful and loving care for my pup while I was out of town. I loved getting the daily "Pupdate" with photos and a note because I was always reassured that my pup had a great day. Memo put all of my anxieties at ease and gave us the best boarding experience we've ever had. They really put all of their energy and attention into making sure my dog was comfortable and thriving. I also appreciated how they were very intentional about making sure staying with them was the right fit from the start. It just goes to show how much they care about providing a great experience for the pup and for the owner. My dog loved his time there and even seemed a little sad to leave when it was time to go home. We definitely recommend Memo's services and will be coming back for sure! Thanks again, Memo & Auggie, you're the best!!”
About: I have previously owned Labradoodles so I have 18 years of experience with high energy dogs. I also have experience in taking care of dogs who require extra medical care. I love to walk, hike and go for runs with dogs but most importantly, I can give them love and attention while you are away. I am retired and looking for the opportunity to assist you in the care of your furry friends while you are working and or traveling. I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your needs. I have a large fences back yard, with no pets of my own. At night I have a mud room for your dog to comfortably sleep in or if needed a pad to lay in a bedroom.
“Tlhis was my first time leaving my Aussie Steel with a dog sitter. He's with me almost 24/7 because of my job. I'm sure I had a much harder time than he did! Ben told me about some of his regulars that he watches, and that they would be coming when Steel wad there. From the videos that Ben sent to me and the updates, I could see Steel was in good company and doing great!! He got lots of outside time, ate well and was completely worn out from a hike when I picked him up! :) I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Ben”
“Our pup, Chaco, was in amazing hands! She loved her walks, swims in the river, playtime with her best dog friend Juniper, and extra cuddles from the kids. We enjoyed getting updates and photos throughout the day. It made our days while being away. We also had a travel delay and Gabrielle was able to host our pup for another day. It was extremely helpful. Definitely love the family for taking amazing care of our pup! 💕🐾”
About: I nanny for a couple families and they have had me dog/house sit for them regularly. Over the years they have started recommending me to their friends and family as well. I work full time from 7:30-5:00ish but my job allows me to come and go whenever! My weekends and evenings consistent of nothing, as well as my early mornings! I would want my pets to be treated like family. If the weather is nice, we may go to the dog park or for a walk. Lots of cuddles, naps, and treats will be on the to-do list as well 🥰
