Personalized care for your dog or cat - Belle Fourche

“This dog sitter a decent sized backyard with dogs of their own. They allow pups on the trampoline and that is enjoyable for my dog. The couple seems very loving! We received pictures and updates "from our dog," about his time there and how much he missed us. It seems like he had fun and was well taken care of!”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for them. I currently have two French Bulldogs and a Schnauzer, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and the daily care dogs need to feel comfortable and happy. Friends and family regularly trust me to dog sit because they know I treat every dog like my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, or just relaxing and getting attention, I’m happy to match their routine and provide plenty of care and affection. I’m currently a college student on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Because of this, I’m able to give dogs lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love making sure they feel comfortable, active, and loved while their owners are away. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and spend time outside with supervision. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I’m happy to follow any instructions the owner provides, including feeding schedules, walks, crate routines, medications, playtime, or specific house rules. My goal is to make pets feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter with extensive experience in caring for dogs of all ages, I bring a unique blend of compassion, reliability, and specialized skills to the table.

What sets me apart is my deep understanding of each pet’s individual needs, coupled with my unwavering commitment to providing a safe and loving environment for your furry family members. Your pets will receive the utmost care and attention they deserve, every time. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, seamlessly woven into my schedule. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I prioritize ensuring that every pet in my care receives consistent, loving attention and the exercise they need to stay happy and healthy. My day is structured around providing top-notch care, making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for. Your pet's well-being is always my top priority, and I manage my time effectively to ensure their needs are met without compromise. Creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment is my top priority when caring for pets. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure pets are comfortable, happy, and secure by following their routine, offering personalized attention, and maintaining a clean, pet-friendly space. Trust and communication with both pets and owners are key, and I’m committed to providing peace of mind every step of the way.

“Meredith was fantastic - reliable and communicative. She made me feel at ease while I was on vacation for 8 days.”

“I arranged 2 drop ins for an extra long work day. She was very professional, and very considerate of my home. She was very attentive and my dogs really liked her. She sent many pictures and stayed with them for 30 minutes each visit. I really appreciate not only her professionalism, but her consideration for my dogs and myself. I will be contacting her again next time my dogs need a walk or friendly visit!”

About: As a fellow cat parent I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your beloved pet in the care of someone new. I’m an experienced cat caregiver and provide dedicated, personalized care for cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, or temperaments. I’m happy to assist with feeding, litter box care, administrating oral medications, playtime, and -most importantly- plenty of love and attention.

About: As a lifelong animal lover and former veterinary technician with experience in both general and emergency veterinary care, I understand that every cat has unique needs and personalities. Whether your cat is playful and social, shy and reserved, or a senior requiring extra attention, I provide patient, compassionate care tailored to them. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring for signs of illness, and ensuring cats maintain their normal routines while you're away. My goal is to create a low-stress experience so both you and your cat can feel comfortable and confident during your time apart.

“We met Candice and felt confident in her love for animals. She took good care of our cats and even had a few extra visits. She sent photos and updates. We hope she will be available next time we leave town!”

About: I've had cats my entire life, growing up with feline companions and now sharing my home with five cats of my own. In addition to my personal experience, I bring over four years of professional animal care experience and continue to expand my knowledge as a veterinary technician in the Black Hills area. Before working in veterinary medicine, I served as the Medical Manager at our local Humane Society, where I gained extensive experience with feline behavior, stress management, medical care, and the unique needs of cats from all walks of life. These experiences shaped me into the knowledgeable, compassionate feline caregiver I am today. My philosophy is simple: cats thrive when they feel safe, understood, and respected. I provide calm, low-stress, in-home care tailored to your cat's individual personality, routine, and needs. Whether your cat is social, shy, senior, or has medical needs, I approach every visit with patience, understanding, and genuine compassion. When you trust me with your feline family member, you can expect personalized care, open communication, and a commitment to your cat's comfort and well-being.

“I had the absolute best experience with Marshall and can’t recommend him enough. He was beyond accommodating with my random and unpredictable schedule for work while out in Rapid City. It was my first time using Rover as well as first time leaving my pup with a stranger but my nerves were quickly relieved to see how well my pup adjusted and got comfortable. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Deuce ❤️”

About: I love dogs and want to make their lives better by visiting, walking, playing, petting, feeding and watering. I will treat them like my own. My schedule is pretty free right now as I am not working, although I do work a couple days a week from May to October. I walk my own dogs and play with them, make sure they have food and water and give them good scratches. I will exercise your dogs and love them too!

“We have nothing but amazing things to say about Amber and the way she took care of our two dogs! We left for a week and she walked them 3 times a day for us—from the first walk we could tell we were going to be able to rest easy with them in her care. She treated them like her own and sent updates/photos every time! We know they loved their time with her and we will definitely be booking again next time we leave town.”

Caisey T.

“Sophia walked my 2yr old havapoo with care and positive guidance and she walked him along the various routes we had discussed. He's an anxious dog and he was hesitant to walk the 1st walk. By 3rd walk he was happy to leash up and go with her. I will book again!”

About: Your dogs will have fun while you are away. You can consider it their home away from home. Won’t have to worry about your things getting chewed up in your house or accidents. I will take care of them as my own. I am available to help Monday through Friday and most weekends. I have a fairly flexible schedule. I have 2 dogs myself (lab mix and a mastador) and have been raising a litter of puppies most recently. Feel free to ask for extra services and inquire with other requests. I watch my friends dogs at times and stay at my boss’s house to watch her dogs when they leave town for the weekend. I am responsible and look forward to meeting your furry friends. ?

About: I got my first dog when I was 4 years old. Have never looked back since! I’ve brought 3 dogs through Canine Good Citizenship certifications. One dog through 4 levels of agility training. One dog through therapy and scent discrimination training. And one dog through search and rescue training. I love, not only to care for animals, but also to learn with them and to observe what they are capable of doing with the right support. I’ve even been able to train my cat to never get only any kitchen counter tops and stay relaxed while I clip her nails! I work a very flexible online job. So I can easily arrange my schedule to meet then needs of the animals 7 days a week. At this time, I can only provide pet care at your home. Once there, I will orient myself with the nearest vet location and familiarize myself with your home, dos and donts, off limits areas, etc.

About: I've owned pets all of my life from reptiles (bearded dragons and turtles), to dogs (big and small), cats of all personality types, and many different rodents (rabbits, Guinea pigs, mice). I love caring for pets and giving them whatever they need to feel happy and comfortable. I have been taking care of pets in a professional setting for 10 years and even worked as a veterinary assistant for 5 years so I know how to administer many types of pet medications. I am also a certified dog trainer, so I know how to care for dogs of all energy levels and temperaments! I know that every pet has different needs and personalities and I can meet those needs! I work full time, but have spurts of time where I can stop in to care for a pet, take a dog on a walk, or spend some time cuddling with a pet. I can pick dogs up for walks at your home and take them on a local hike or a walk around the neighborhood or local park. I can stop by to let puppies (or dogs of any age) out to potty and give them some love and affection as well! I often care for cats where I stop into the home one a day or once every other day (depending on the owners preference) and make sure your cat has food, fresh water, and clean litter box. I also water house plants as needed if requested:)
