Personalized care for your dog or cat - Rhodes
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rhodes
“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!!”
“Morgan is a dog whisperer. From the way she plays with the pups, pets them, speaks with them, and makes them feel completely at home - our doggy was so happy after spending a full 24 hours at her house. It was a chaotic road trip for my husband and I and Morgan was a bright light that made everything smoother, easier, and sweeter! WE ARE SO GRATEFUL. And Brea is too :-) Thanks again for everything. Especially the cuddles and love.”
“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 and Zach were amazing with Bella. They made her feel part of the family and she loved playing with their kids and dog. Shannon also has some serious photography skills! Couldn’t recommend them any more strongly!”
“Lucy was outstanding. It was our first time using her and Rover and we were nervous especially because our pup is a nervous one. She was so thoughtful and patient and genuinely showed up to care for Calvin and he was sincerely welcomed into her home. She was communicative and provided great photos which we greatly appreciated. I would recommend Lucy to everyone and we will use her again!”
“Lisa was amazing! She took delicate care of my senior Yorkie! We received consistent updates and photos. And my dog clearly seemed more relaxed when I got him back then when I dropped him off. I would 100% rebook with her.”
“Andy was wonderful with our cat, Macs. He sent pictures every day and took the time to make sure Macs was comfortable. We will definitely ask Andy to care for Macs again in the future, if we have the need.”
“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!”
“Alyssa was great! I felt super comfortable leaving my dog with her, she was super communicative and sent pics! Highly recommend, hope to have her watch my pup again!”
“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!”
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!
“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.”
“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! 🤗”
“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.”

“Riley was amazing! She sent pictures and updates every day, and took time out of her day to come do a meet and greet. I came back to a clean space, fresh water, and my cat was well taken care of and happy!”
“Eileen is absolutely the best! She came over beforehand to meet my cat and I was able to tell right away how genuine and caring of a person she is. She sent me lots of pictures of him daily (5 visits) and sent me messages throughout that made me feel very comfortable being away from my kitty. When I came home the place looked great and Merlin was super happy and content! I will definitely be booking Eileen the next time I am out of town. Highly recommend her!”
“Emily house sat for us and our 2 fur babies! She left our home spotless and my two little ones enjoyed her company. She is professional and trustworthy! I would highly recommend her :)”
“Sloan took great care of Erma while I was away. It was clear when we met for our meet and greet that she has a lot of animal care experience and is very attentive to the needs of each pet. Would definitely book her again in the future!”
“Karla was amazing! Followed all directions, very quick to respond in the chat, asked all the important questions, and made sure my 4 babies were cared for on the 4th of July (which is a very scary day for puppies.) I will absolutely be booking with Karla again!”

Checking their stool, food/water intake, etc. I treat them like they're my friend. I am sensitive to their needs and that usually looks like a welcoming and loving attitude. I treat your home and furry family with love.
“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 - Rhodes
“Thanks to Morgan for her flexibility, knowledge, and attention to detail with the special needs of my brand new puppy, and my irregular work hours! Thanks to her kiddo for giving her so much love. Though the house and yard could benefit from a touch up to make things feel a little cleaner and brighter, it wasn’t really “messy or dirty,” as the River app puts it. I was more than satisfied with the stay, and may call back later for info about training or classes. Much appreciation for everything.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Shauna was wonderful! And her yard is perfect for dogs-so much nice short grass to run around and play! Highly recommend! Our girl looked like she was having a great time!”
“Alaina was absolutely fantastic with our dog. She is so kind, sent photos and videos, and was an excellent communicator. We would 10/10 recommend Alaina and happily have her watch our dog again!”
“Our dog stayed with Sophie for the day while we went to Glacier National Park. Everything worked out perfectly. Our dog was well taken care of in their home with a large fenced back yard. Our dog came back home happy and tired from a very fun day. We would certainly have her watch our dog anytime.”
“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!”
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.
“Great location right outside the park! Whitney was great at communicating and did a wonderful job caring for our dog. Willow was nervous and Whitney was very patient!”
“Kelly is so awesome! Charley had such a fun day playing at her house and on a trip to the river. My mom and I were able tk have a great day hiking in glacier knowing Charley was safe and having fun! Would highly recommend Kelly!”
“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!!”
“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: From a young age, my life has been enriched by the companionship of both cats and dogs, nurturing a deep love and understanding of animals. Growing up with a King Charles Cavalier and now sharing my days with a beloved golden retriever, I've developed a profound connection with these furry friends. My personal experiences have instilled in me a natural instinct for pet care, from the joy of playtime to the responsibilities of feeding and grooming. Beyond my own pets, I've extended my passion for animal care into professional realms, providing attentive and compassionate sitting services for other pet owners. Each interaction has reinforced my commitment to the well-being and happiness of every furry client, ensuring they receive the same level of care and affection as my own companions. What sets me apart as a sitter is not only my genuine love for animals but also my ability to tailor care to meet the unique needs of each pet. Whether it's training puppies, providing specialized attention to senior dogs, or simply offering a warm lap for cuddles, I take pride in going above and beyond to create a safe and enriching environment for every furry friend entrusted to my care. With me, your pet isn't just a client – they're family. Weekend availability: full time to watch your pet. Weekday: 90% full time availability, I am a part time yoga teacher who teaches a couple classes a week. In my home or my client's home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and nurturing environment for pets under my care. This includes adhering to their regular feeding and walking schedules, providing ample playtime and exercise, and ensuring a clean and safe living space. I also make sure to administer any necessary medications or treatments as directed by the pet owner. Additionally, I offer personalized attention and affection to each pet, making them feel loved and secure while they're away from their owners. Whether it's overnight stays, daily check-ins, or dog-walking services, I strive to meet the unique needs of every pet and maintain open communication with their owners to ensure peace of mind.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Rhodes
“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.”
About: I will provide excellent care for your fur babies because I've had animals my entire life and can truly show your pets the love/care they deserve. I've had pet sitting jobs through family friends since I was 12 that included things like day sitting, walking and overnight sitting. I also have experience with many different dog breeds as I used to work at a grooming salon. My time there taught me a lot about dog communication and behaviors, and only deepened my love for all animals. I will treat your furry friends as if they were my own because they all deserve the same kind of love that they pour out to us. If you're interested in the best care you could get for your pets then I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for your consideration :) My schedule is very open this summer, as I am preparing to enter a college program this fall and will not be working another job. During the week, I would be available in the morning and evenings, and my weekends are available. I have a lot of free time, and would love to put it to good use doing what I love most which is being around animals. I will care for your pets however you need. Whether that looks like daily walks, exercise in the back yard or just chilling and providing company and supervision to your pets within your home.
About: I have experience in caring for a variety of pets, not limited just to dogs and cats. I have also cared for snakes, guinea pigs, fish, and even slugs! I am willing to work with pets of all kinds, ranging from bugs to birds. I'm currently taking a break from college, so I am readily available for any pet care needs. I have my own reliable transportation, and I am very good at communication and keeping in contact. I will happily house-sit or spend extended periods of time to keep your companions company. I know how to read animal body language, so your pets will always be safe and comfortable! I am willing to accommodate special needs as well, such as medication or unique schedules.

My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing home-away-from-home experience for your pup. Inspired by countless hours of César Millan’s Dog Whisperer, I use his positive techniques to encourage balanced behaviors and gently redirect unwanted ones with healthy rules, boundaries and limitations. I’m experienced with dogs’ needs, from managing separation anxiety to maintaining feeding routines to administering medications. My pet-proofed home has no toxic plants, and I offer a cozy space for naps and play. I can send daily photo and video updates to keep you connected. As a background-checked sitter, I prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. Whether it’s kennel-free dog boarding, walking, or house sitting in Kalispell, I’m here to give your dog tailored care.

When I am pet-sitting in my home, my mom and 23 year old son who both live with me, will be available if I need to go to an appointment. As I mentioned in my bio, my 1.26-acre property features a secure, fully fenced backyard, and my home is pet-proofed with no toxic plants. I send daily updates via text and follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and safe, kennel-free for comfort.
About: I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood when I was a kid. Now I often take care of my neighbors’ dogs and sometimes board them. I’m an online MBA student, so I’m free to make my own schedule. I work on the weekends and am free most of the week. I love in a house with a fenced yard, have a husky puppy. I allow him on my bed and couch. There’s plenty of space for another dog!
“Thank you so much! It was such a relief to be able to go spend the day on the lake and know that our buddy was taken care of! Your communication from start to finish was awesome. We came back to a happy dog!”
About: I’m currently available part-time on weekday evenings, which gives me plenty of time to spend playing and caring for your pups! I’ve had over eighteen years of experience with all aspects of dog care. From helping raise puppies to caring for my own dogs since I was just three years old, my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. Many people call me a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to respond to me with the same trust and comfort they show their own owners. My experience ranges from caring for healthy, energetic pups to providing specialized care for dogs with medical conditions—even hospice care for one of my beloved dogs. I currently share my life with three dogs, Tipsí, Uisce and our newest addition Juno. You’ll find their information and photos below, along with pictures of other dogs I’ve been fortunate enough to help care for through friends and family. I’m familiar with a wide variety of breeds, including larger ones such as German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Mastiffs. I take pride in giving every dog the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. While I’m unable to host dogs at my own residence, I’m more than happy to come to you—or take your dog out for walks, playtime, or adventures elsewhere. My top priority is always following what makes you and your dog most comfortable. I’m currently working full-time, but am normally available with notice given (preferably two weeks in advance) depending on the time of day and also work schedule that week. I trust that the owner gives me all of the information needed to know about said dog, I then use the information as well as knowledge I am told in to making it the best experience possible for your dog and your self as the owner.
About: Hi there! I'm Kim, a 44 year-old Physical Therapist. I am active and love to hike, bike, skin the mountain & cross country ski - and would enjoy taking your dog on any adventure, big or small. I love dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and ages; and will care for your pet like it is my own. I grew up with Annie-Belle, an orange Tabby cat who hopped our fence and was never claimed by her previous owners. In my adult life I adopted Kayla, a Siberian Husky mix who adventured with me for 18 lucky years. I have not yet found a new pet of my own, but greatly enjoy the time I get to spend with client’s furry friends. Recently, I have also been housesitting and caring for the gardens for patients of mine while they are on vacation, with or without pets. Please contact me with any questions you might have, or to schedule a meet and greet! Over my years in the Flathead Valley I have developed repeat customers that I enjoy interacting with, and look forward to caring for their pets and homes whenever requested as well as meeting new clients. I am available for long-term gigs as well. I can provide as many updates as pictures as you desire while your pets are in my care. I am currently in between Physical Therapy jobs thus have wide availability for the immediate future. I rent at my home and landlords do not allow dogs, so I come to you for doggy day care, overnights, long stays, etc. I am very cautious while petsitting. Even if owners say their dog is ok off leash I at least leash them in the parking lot to load/unload and wait until a quarter mile away from the parking lot to unleash. Not worth the risk of the unknown, especially before you’re certain a dog trusts you and will respond to your commands. I will treat and care for your pets and home like they are my own.
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.
“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!”
“Meghan has been great to work! Shes’s helped my shy collie become more comfortable with new people while ensuring he gets an adequate amount of exercise with his afternoon walks.”
“Lauren was great to work with. She sent me multiple updates through out our booking and included pictures of Belle. 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!”

“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!!”
“Morgan is a dog whisperer. From the way she plays with the pups, pets them, speaks with them, and makes them feel completely at home - our doggy was so happy after spending a full 24 hours at her house. It was a chaotic road trip for my husband and I and Morgan was a bright light that made everything smoother, easier, and sweeter! WE ARE SO GRATEFUL. And Brea is too :-) Thanks again for everything. Especially the cuddles and love.”
“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.”
“Lucy was outstanding. It was our first time using her and Rover and we were nervous especially because our pup is a nervous one. She was so thoughtful and patient and genuinely showed up to care for Calvin and he was sincerely welcomed into her home. She was communicative and provided great photos which we greatly appreciated. I would recommend Lucy to everyone and we will use her again!”
“Andy was wonderful with our cat, Macs. He sent pictures every day and took the time to make sure Macs was comfortable. We will definitely ask Andy to care for Macs again in the future, if we have the need.”
“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!”
“Alyssa was great! I felt super comfortable leaving my dog with her, she was super communicative and sent pics! Highly recommend, hope to have her watch my pup 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!
“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.”
“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! 🤗”
“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.”
“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.”
“Kelly was amazing! We were in town and really wanted to do a hike in Glacier and couldn’t take our two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels with us. Her dogs got a long great with ours and we really appreciated that she took them to the river and on walks multiple times. She also helped us out by picking them up and dropping them back off. We could not recommend her more and when we come back hope she’s still here to help!! 5+ stars.”
“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🥰🥰🥰🥰”
