About: I have been dog-sitting/walking since I was ten (that was over 20 years ago!). I started out in my neighborhood and by word-of-mouth became known as someone who will lovingly care for your pets! I understand that a pet's physical needs are important, but I also know that pet's emotional needs are important. When taking care of your fur-baby, I try to love him/her as much as you do! I never had a dog or cat of my own growing up, which just makes it even more special for me to be able to care for yours as though it is my own. I have been house sitting on and off since college, and am very experienced with keeping other peoples' homes/havens clean and well-kept. I enjoy walking, snuggling, and playing with your dogs, and petting, snuggling (if they allow it ;)), and playing with your cats! I have pets of my own and know just how much love and care they deserve. I have kids and they love animals too! We homeschool and I work from home, so your pet will never be lonely. I'm available to love on and meet your pet's needs when they arise. I want your pet to feel loved and cared for, and will stick to your routine and schedule as much as I can! And make sure they have the lovings they need.

“We were SO HAPPY with the care our Marlie received! Communication was great! She received lots of love and got to partake in activities. Truth be told, I think she wanted to stay a little longer. I would definitely recommend Angela!”

“Sara is amazing. She took amazing care of my dog Hunter. She took him on walks. She also sent pictures and pupdates. If your looking for someone to watch your pet when your away I’d definitely go with Sara.”

About: ** I am a good fit for your pet if your dog is -a higher energy dog -good with children -and is kennel trained I grew up on a small farm caring for animals since I was a small child. However, it wasn't until we adopted Opie as a puppy in 2024 that I became passionate about dogs. Due to me spending the most time with training and playing with Opie out of all the members in our little family, his big personality made his way into my heart. He is my buddy and I love taking him for walks, bike rides, park dates, and off leash adventures. I’ve come to love and appreciate tending to Opie and others dogs belonging to family and friends. Tending and caring for them has brought me a lot of satisfaction and happiness. Dogs really are mans best friend, and I am proud to call myself a "dog mom". I am a stay at home mom (SAHM) raising two little boys. We are home a lot of the time, and part of the routine is expelling energy from our dog. Pet care is just part of our day to day routine, all hours of the day. I have a fenced back yard and a mini Aussie to keep your dog company. Each evening, or when running errands, dogs are put in their crates to rest and recover. Dogs are not allowed on carpeted surfaces or furniture in our home. But they are allowed on the main level of our house. We offer a lot of love and time to each dog who stays here.

“My yellow lab, Sophie had a wonderful play date at Shalane’s with her two yellow lab fur babies today! Her kindness and love of dogs was truly evident. I higjly recommend her and look forward to boarding with her in the near future.”
“Jana kept me very well informed of how Cooper was doing as he gets very depressed when we leave him. Communication was great the house and yard were a great fit for Cooper being a senior dog. We will definitely be using Jana in the future”

About: I raised a now senior dog who knows around 30 tricks. I trained him myself. He has special dietary needs and requires a bit of additional support, so I understand how important it is to have someone who will trust your care instructions without questions or judgement. Animals NEED us; they rely on us. In turn, they make our lives better. I grew up with animals and can't imagine my life without them. I am currently between jobs and have an open schedule to accommodate any and all of your needs. Please let me know what works best for you! I have a 3/4 fenced yard that I'm working to get completed, a very friendly small dog to keep your dog company, but can keep him separate if needed. I'm happy to travel to your home or you can drop off your dogs with me!
“Clayton is emotionally tuned to dogs. He was so caring and accommodating to my scared 15yo furbaby, I didn't worry for a minute that I was away. He was in daily communication with lots of pictures. He's great!”

“Emily and her sister Gena shared housesitting and cat sitting duties during our recent time away, and we are so grateful to them. They took wonderful care of our cat, Thunder, and the house was so tidy upon our return. They were very communicative and sent pictures which we really appreciated. We are rather needy cat parents, and their great communication and responsiveness squashed any worries we may have had about leaving our cat with a sitter. Thank you, Emily and Gena!”


“I was worried about finding the right person for my recently relocated adoptee who has a bit of a bad attitude. Gabreella was super professional and sweet with Alley.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Shepherd

“We were nervous pet parents who found Tiffany to be warm, friendly and knowledgeable as one who shows dogs. She provided a great first-time daycare experience for our 7 month old puppy in her home where he safely socialized with children and other dogs. We appreciated the photos and updates she provided as reassurance he was doing well. He'll be back for overnight boarding next week.”

Her young boys played with her and she got lots of exercise in her spacious yard. I definitely recommend her and she sent pictures and updates throughout the day and very communicative. Thank you Shannon and family.”

For my own home, I owned canaries, fish, and currently take care of my old lady cat named Coco. I thoroughly enjoy working with animals and would love to get to know yours! I am a full-time employee as well as a full-time student and mother. That being said, every other week is best for my schedule when it comes to overnight pet sitting. Drop-ins/walks are more flexible for me to do, especially once the school year starts again. Please, do not hesitate to reach out/message me about a service. My schedule is interesting, but please know that I will be as accommodating and open as I can be. In a client's home, your animal will receive nothing but love and as much play time as possible! I double check my list and make sure everything is in order before I leave. These are your babies, and I will treat them as if they are :)
About: Growing up on a ranch I have experience with lots of animals! We had 6 large dogs and too many cats too count growing up! I also had a bearded dragon for 6 years and a hamster so I can handle pretty much anything! I’m available pretty much 24/7 and I would of course let you know otherwise. This is a full time job for me so scheduling is never an issue! Honestly how I care for your pets is mainly up too you! Housing wise they’d be staying in my room with me at night, I’m an early riser and have a morning run I do so any dogs would more then likely join me for that depending on the age! Food and water I keep in my kitchen away from my cats food and my cats stays in our large basement during boardings for her safety and comfort!
About: Since 10 years ago I’ve enjoyed giving attention to dogs and cats and making them feel happy, active, safe, and giving the attention they want. I am self employed and sole business owner so jumping to a dog or cat need is easy for my schedule. I have high accountability and professionalism being a financial entrepreneur and loving dogs and cats as a side hobby here. I scan the environment and see what they like to do, I watch their behavior and compliment it or help guide them for behavior or their needs. Studying them and then making sure they feel happy, active, safe, and attention given!
“My dog Agnes usually has to go through a formal, slow introduction with new people. Not with Kelsey! She took to her immediately, excited to start their walk together ❤ She loves her already, and that's all the endorsement I need!”

About: I grew up with dogs, and have had experience with reptiles, horses, and fish! I am a pilot and Navy veteran and love hanging out with animals since I can’t have one of my own quite yet. I am allergic to cats but I can do drop in visits! 🐕 I can keep pets at my house, and I am available for walks and drop ins during the week as well as on weekends. I am allergic to cats but also have experience with horses and reptiles. I can ensure they have all their needs met as well as exercise and affection. I take dog sitting as seriously as babysitting and will make sure they are spoiled and well taken care of!
About: I’ve never lived a day of my life without at least one dog in it. I’ve cared for my own, my neighbors and family. I worked for a dog daycare and boarding facility. I’ve administered medications including injections. I love to take them for walks, have play time, or just snuggle on the couch. I will treat your pup as if it were my own. I live in Billings but also frequent the Roberts, Joliet, and Red lodge areas, so consider me for overnights if you are out in that area. I work from home part time and am able to create my own schedule. This would be a fun and rewarding way to get out if the house. My dogs sleep in bed with me, but I would have your pets sleep wherever they are used to. I like to keep feeding on a regular schedule. 8am for breakfast and 6pm for dinner. I like to go for walks around 4, again keeping a schedule. Since I would be staying in your house, if you want, your pets would keep to whatever their regular routine is.

About: I know how it feels to leave your furry friends home alone. I’m here to give them the care they need so you can have peace of mind! I work a very flexible job that allows me to come and go. Weather you need someone to check in on your cat during the day, or take your pup for regular walks I’m your gal! I do not offer pet care in my own home. I am happy to offer services in your home! Where your animals feel most safe and comfortable.
About: Hi there! I work a regular 8-4, Monday through Friday, but my free time is all about pets! I absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds and I'm comfortable caring for pets with special needs or who require medications. I'll always make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well taken care of while you're away. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my day around each pet's needs, making time for walks, feedings, play, and companionship. Whether it's morning drop-ins, afternoon walks, or evening visits, I enjoy giving each pet my full attention and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I like to follow the already daily routine pets have. From where they sleep and eat, to what time they eat. With dogs I'm willing to take them out on walks on the leash till I know they'll recall to me, unless you live on a property that they run free on often.
About: I so appreciate the peace of mind having a dependable, trustworthy sitter taking care of my pets when I travel and I want to provide that for others. I would mainly be available in the afternoons to evenings, but will discuss with any potential customers to meet their specific needs on a case by case basis. I have a fenced in yard of about 2 acres with secure gates at two points which are kept chained and locked for our dogs safety. For a client, I would certainly adhere to any normal methods or procedures they have in place which they know to be proven to keep their pets safe.

About: ** I am a good fit for your pet if your dog is -a higher energy dog -good with children -and is kennel trained I grew up on a small farm caring for animals since I was a small child. However, it wasn't until we adopted Opie as a puppy in 2024 that I became passionate about dogs. Due to me spending the most time with training and playing with Opie out of all the members in our little family, his big personality made his way into my heart. He is my buddy and I love taking him for walks, bike rides, park dates, and off leash adventures. I’ve come to love and appreciate tending to Opie and others dogs belonging to family and friends. Tending and caring for them has brought me a lot of satisfaction and happiness. Dogs really are mans best friend, and I am proud to call myself a "dog mom". I am a stay at home mom (SAHM) raising two little boys. We are home a lot of the time, and part of the routine is expelling energy from our dog. Pet care is just part of our day to day routine, all hours of the day. I have a fenced back yard and a mini Aussie to keep your dog company. Each evening, or when running errands, dogs are put in their crates to rest and recover. Dogs are not allowed on carpeted surfaces or furniture in our home. But they are allowed on the main level of our house. We offer a lot of love and time to each dog who stays here.

“My yellow lab, Sophie had a wonderful play date at Shalane’s with her two yellow lab fur babies today! Her kindness and love of dogs was truly evident. I higjly recommend her and look forward to boarding with her in the near future.”
“Jana kept me very well informed of how Cooper was doing as he gets very depressed when we leave him. Communication was great the house and yard were a great fit for Cooper being a senior dog. We will definitely be using Jana in the future”

About: I raised a now senior dog who knows around 30 tricks. I trained him myself. He has special dietary needs and requires a bit of additional support, so I understand how important it is to have someone who will trust your care instructions without questions or judgement. Animals NEED us; they rely on us. In turn, they make our lives better. I grew up with animals and can't imagine my life without them. I am currently between jobs and have an open schedule to accommodate any and all of your needs. Please let me know what works best for you! I have a 3/4 fenced yard that I'm working to get completed, a very friendly small dog to keep your dog company, but can keep him separate if needed. I'm happy to travel to your home or you can drop off your dogs with me!

“My pup Oliver had a great time with Emily and her family, including her two pups. He loves people and other dogs, and especially little ones so it was a great experience for him. For a good boi who is pretty much always with his mum when she's not working, he has done really well in good Rover situations, and Emily's was definitely a good experience for him. She also made a lovely bandana for his and it has his name on it !”

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals, including a lot of dogs. At 10 years old my first job was taking care of my neighbors herd of cattle. I raised and trained a "Guide Dog for the Blind" and spent 11 years of my youth in 4-H and FFA showing cattle and horses. I also had cats, bunnies, chicken and ducks. I am retired and take my girl running, hiking and for walks on my property and on public lands in the area. We also spend time exploring our neighbors large ranch that I have access to. I have a fenced yard and 11 acres. My girl is content either lying around or exploring. She would love to make new friends and keep your dog company.
