“Andy took excellent care of our senior pup Bella. He sent us pictures of her stay and updates on how she was doing. This allowed us to fully enjoy our son’s wedding without worrying about how Bella was doing without us. We will definitely rehire Andy the next time we cannot travel with Bella 👍”

“Lisa was absolutely wonderful! She was so flexible and accommodating with an early morning drop-off and late pick-up around my 12-hour clinical shift. My dogs loved running around her yard and became fast friends with her dog. They were so happy at the end of the day, I could tell they loved being there.”

“My dog Remi suffers from separation anxiety and I was nervous about leaving her alone in a new place with people she had not previously become familiar with, but she instantly felt very comfortable with McKenzie and her pups. Remi ran around in Mckenzie's front yard doing her "happy dance", which she only does when spending time with people she really likes, when it was time for her to leave. McKenzie is a terrific dog sitter and highly recommended.”

“We are grateful to have a new trusted place to board our dog. Whitney has a great place for dogs and she is very conscientious and thorough with her care. Our dog had a great stay and we did not worry about her at all while on our trip.”

“Alyssa is truly incredible! We fully trusted her with the care of our dog for 2 nights and 3 days while we went to explore the east side of Glacier National Park! She continuously sent me photos and updates of how she was doing and our dog loved playing with her dog! I could not recommend Alyssa enough, she is incredibly nice, thoughtful, great at communicating and I feel lucky to have found someone to trust taking care of our dog ☺️”


“Kaylea took great care of Finn. When I stopped in for a visit he was so happy he didn't even care when I left. Her dog Bennie is a love-She gets along so well with other dogs! Kaylea had a nice big yard. Kaylea spends so much time with your pet. She is so loving & caring. Finn came home like he'd been at a retreat!!”

“If I could give ten stars I would. Both my dogs ended up being really challenging during this visit and Genevieve handled it all with such kindness and consideration. My dogs couldn’t have been better taken care of and I’m deeply grateful. Excellent communication, excellent care!”

“What a wonderful experience. Sterling received the best possible care in the comfort of a loving home as the only dog in the house. I can’t say enough about how satisfied I am with his solo boarding experience! 🤗”

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!
“Kelly was fantastic! She has so much fenced in area for the dogs to run around. Being a trainer, Kelly provided great feedback for us as well. We got pictures of our puppy's adventure at the river. Kelly is highly recommended and we wish she was hear all year long!!!”

“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.”

“Sue is the absolute best, and I can't recommend her highly enough. I'm crazy about my two medium-sized high energy brother-sister rescue dogs who are usually nervous around people, and I have no worries when they're with Sue. They immediately settled in and clearly felt comfortable at her place. The love her fenced backyard and going on long leash walks walks her. One of my pups takes a medication that is critical to receive at the same time every day, and Sue always remembers to give it to her and keeps us updated when she does. She also sends updates throughout the day, which I love! It puts my mind at ease and I always know they're in good hands. Five stars all around!”

“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!”

“Courtney was great! My cat has separation anxiety as well as other health issues that require medication. Courtney spent a lot of time with my cat and gave him is medicine. In short, my cat didn't even miss me...which is a good thing!”


“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!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Polebridge
“I’ve never used Rover before. We had everything planned for my brother’s wedding and our trip to glacier and things changed last minute. Our Airbnb host decided they wouldn’t honor their pet policy. I have two small yorkies and one suffers with separation anxiety. I’ve never left the dogs with anyone but family. I saw Whitney on the app and could instantly tell she loved animals, and exuded warmth from her photos. Her previous reviews made me less anxious about the process. So, I decided to give it a shot! Whitney replied within 5 minutes of me reaching out and helped me through the process. If you are in a similar position or looking for someone you can trust last minute while you explore the park Whitney won’t disappoint! She sent me photos and updates to let me know how the dogs were throughout the day. She made sure they were comfortable with her dogs before we left and my anxious pup who rarely shows excitement on first meeting others started wagging his tail when he met her. I am so thankful for Whitney. She made it possible to enjoy my brother’s wedding and family time without constantly worrying about my pups. I would 100% recommend her and use her again myself if we came back to visit. I really can’t say enough good things,and will always be grateful for Whitney’s help!”


“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.”

“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.”

“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”

“Lisa is super sweet and I could tell right away that my dogs loved her. She was inviting from the moment we went to do a meet & greet. When we got there for the boarding, she made sure to ask questions & listen. During our time away I received daily updates & pictures of my happy boys! Well definitely be booking with her again!”

“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!!”

“Mykenzie has an amazing fenced in yard and home. My Bianca is advanced in her years and set in her ways, but was totally comfortable. She had the best time, and I also got some beautiful photos of her as a bonus. Thank you for taking great care of her Mykenzie.”
“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!”

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.
“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!”

“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!”
