About: I’ve had many pets and animals. I have also dog sat quite a bit in home for 5 dogs at a time. I am very good with animals and very patient. I am a student at South Dakota State University. My schedule makes it so I can get back home every few hours so I can check up on things and let them out. I have a very flexible schedule. My roommate has a little male dachshund. My yard doesn't have a fence because I live in an apartment. I do have a sliding glass door that leads straight out to the grass because I am on the first floor. I am very flexible about how I care for pets, so I can do it however you'd like.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was young both domestic and street dogs. My neighbors, and family have relied on me to walk, feed their pets. I go above because I love spending time with them as they are our extended family. I am currently working from home, with flexible work schedule. I can be contacted last minute for dog or cat sitting or walking. I am just a phone call away: My apartment is clean and spacious. They will be allowed to run free and walk regularly with love and care. Always available as needed. J

About: I have lived on a farm my whole life therefore I am very familiar with dogs! I have worked at a vet clinic before so I am comfortable with different breeds:) I recently had a baby girl and I would love to stay home with her as much as possible! So in order to do so… I’d love to get active again and take your dogs on walks and/or get out of the house to drop in and visit your pets! Living on a farm has never required me to walk my dogs but I feel that I am responsible and trustworthy enough to walk your dog(s) safely! I know how important your pets are to you and I will do everything to keep them safe and healthy!

About: Hi, I’m Allie! With over 2 years of hands-on experience working at a dog kennel, I know what it takes to keep pups happy, healthy, and safe. I work from home most of the week, so your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I have a secure fenced-in backyard for playtime and exercise, and two friendly dogs of my own who love making new friends. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have built-in playmates and lots of fun! Whether it’s walks, snuggles, or just a calm environment, I treat every dog like family. I’m here to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. I work from home most of the week, which means I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, play sessions, and plenty of attention. My two dogs already have a routine, so adding another pup fits right in with walks, feeding times, and backyard play. In My Home: I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. Dogs enjoy supervised play in my secure fenced backyard, daily walks, and lots of snuggles. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, medications, and special care instructions to keep them happy and stress-free. My two friendly dogs love having playmates, so social pups will have built-in companionship. In Your Home: If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I treat your home with respect and keep everything tidy while ensuring your pet feels safe and loved. My kennel experience means I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and can adapt to your pet’s unique needs.
