“Seriously goes above and beyond. I was worried about booking a place outside of Rapid just for easy drop off/pick up but she made it easy for us meeting us near the interstate. My dog had the time of her life running on several acres, jumping in the pond and playing with their dogs. It’s a dog’s dream.”

“They were absolutely amazing! Super communicative, responds super fast, and did a last minute booking for us. Honestly absolutely amazing, I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with absolute horrible separation anxiety with them! He was also kept busy lol!”

“We felt great knowing that Luna was staying in a safe fun environment where she got to interact with other dogs. Brooke was great about sending us photos and videos so we knew she was ok and having fun. We will definitely bring Luna back the next time we go on vacation.”

“Highly, HIGHLY recommend. She took such great care of our mini Aussie. Look no further if you want someone to take great care of your pet. She is kind, compassionate, and professional. If you want peace of mind, this is it. Thank you, Timber misses you.”

“I recently left my 2 yo dog, Wilson, in the care of Hector and his sister for 10 days while I was traveling abroad, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Hector provided good care, love and attention. I received regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was overseas. It's clear that Hector and his family are true dog lovers, and I highly recommend his service to anyone in need of a reliable and caring host. 5 stars ⭐️!”

“Talon and the fam did a wonderful job. They took good care of our pup during our vacation and really helped ease our anxiety of leaving him. Sent lots of updates and was very communicative! Will definitely be reaching out again!”

“Brittany gave AMAZING care for our two pugs! Between the daily pictures and very happy demeanor of the dogs when they picked them up, it was obvious that they were well cared for!”

“5 STARS for Ariel, who provided extraordinary TLC for my rescued pup. She went the extra mile to provide daily photos and updates of his play time. She even let him sleep with her. She took him everywhere, including on a tour to see the neighborhood Christmas lights. I'd give her 10 stars, if that were possible.”
“Gianna was wonderful! She took great care of our two Golden Retrievers, giving them plenty of long walks, care and attention, including administering meds to each (which can be a struggle sometimes). And she provided us with daily photo and video updates on all their adventures. I don’t think I’ve seen our dogs as happy with any other sitter! We’ll definitely rebook next time we’re in Rapid!”

About: My daughter Trenna and I grew up with dogs and cats and we love all their different personalities and they bring so much joy to our lives. When you get a dog it’s a commitment. They are our kids. I am looking for a partime job. What a fun opportunity to do something I love. I have three dogs/kids myself. I can’t wait to get home from work and. see their wiggly tails. They don’t care what kind of day you just had, they just want to love on you. When I am home they are wherever I am. During the day they are in their kennels. Two of them are not even 2 yet so they like their toys.

About: I'm an active gal who loves the companionship of a pooch while out and about. I love taking dogs on long walks or hikes through the woods or just down the city blocks for a quick leg stretch (and a bathroom stop). I'll be attentive to the needs of your dog, making sure they get plenty of activity, are well hydrated, and fed appropriately. While I don't have a dog of my own currently, I was a dog walker when I lived in New York City and I volunteered for two years with Border Paws Rescue in Rapid City caring for 5 - 10 pups for their pre-bedtime outings. I'm comfortable working with and providing a safe environment for the most goofy and social as well as the most solo and independent pups. I'm happy to accommodate any special needs you and your pup may have. I'm prompt and reliable. I hope to meet you and your pup soon! I work full time, but have flexibility to do bathroom breaks over lunch for kiddos that need more frequent outings. I can take pups on walks in the morning or evening depending on their activity needs. I have a small fenced in yard that is available for outside hangs. I am patient and kind and love to meet the needs of each pup where they are at. I have volunteered in a rescue and am comfortable around dogs of different temperaments.
About: I have grown up with dogs, owned (and currently own) a dog, and absolutely LOVE them as my own. We have an enclosed dog run with a dog door onsite. They are spoiled beyond measure and treated better than a family member. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to spend quality time with your pet! I am available on weekends and holidays, as well as weekdays depending on notice. I have a fenced in dog run with a dog door. I can easily crate your dog if that is helpful to his/her routine. I do have 2 dogs onsite but can keep them separate if needed. We live on 3 acres and walk our dogs every day! They are Family!

“Vanessa cared for our kitty while we were away for four days. She left the house spotless, and we could tell Matcha was very well cared for. She was always on time and communicated promptly. We will absolutely be using her in the future!”


“Shelby does a fantastic job with our cats every time we are away! She’s always attentive to their needs and spends time making sure they get lots of love and playtime. She sends great updates and pics from each visit so we know how they are doing. They can be pretty messy with kicking litter around, but she stays on top of that too. We appreciate the five star service every time!”


“Monet is amazing and my favorite cat sitter. She is very understanding, trustworthy, and dependable. I will always request her to sit for my cats. My mom also met her the first time she came to my house and adores her. Highly recommend Monet for all your pet sitting needs!!”


About: My daughter and I had cats and dogs growing up and they are the best furry companions. They were like family to us. We will always rescue and we would love to love on your furry children.
“Ronda was a caring and thoughtful new friend for our kitty. Our cat was well looked after, clearly healthy and happy upon our return and Ronda's visits gave us great peace of mind. Definitely appreciated the daily photos!”


“Amanda was very communicative throughout the entire process and did an incredible job checking in on my cat. Would 100% recommend Amanda and will definitely be using her services again in the future!”


“Mary was wonderful. You can tell she loves animals and taking care of them. She was very sweet and attentive with our kitten, sending us updates and pictures regularly of them having fun. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter!”

“Nathan was very nice and always provided photo updates of our bunny, Mr. Pickles. I could tell that he played with him and he always wrote little status updates after the visit to tell me about the visit. He seemed excited to gain trust with our bunny and ended up being able to give him some love (bunny is very nervous around new people)”


“Arianne was great with our boy Carbon. It was his first time spending a night without me or my husband present since we got him 3+ years ago, and she made sure that it wasn't a bad experience for him. We definitely went overboard when it came to providing information about him, but Arianne was able to handle it all without issue. 6/5.”

“Kairi is awesome. I needed someone very last minute and she responded immediately and was able to help me out. She takes the time to play with the dogs and really pays attention to them.”


About: As a kid, I always wanted a cat. My grandparents had farm cats who would occasionally sneak out and let me pet them, but it wasn’t until I was an adult that I got my own little girl. I’ve been a cat dad ever since, with three of my own. I have also cat-sit for several friends of mine, and take it as a personal challenge to get each and every one to love me.
About: For most of my life I've had a dog, his name Orvis, a beautiful Chesapeake Bay Retriever I love Orvis and took him out on many walks. A family friend who has two dogs had me take care of their babies for a couple of nights. My friend and I had a sleep over and it was really the 3 of us, me him and the cat, Midnight, still my favorite cat. Currently I pet sit full time, while also studying for my future. I love pets, dogs, cats, big and small. I love how they are cuddly and also a workout ;) I am a big rule follower, if you are telling me the pets need to be fed at an exact time, they will be fed then. These are your babies safety is my number one priority. I have even taken care of 2 dogs at the same time who had to be fed at the same time but different rooms.
About: I’ve grown up with 3 dogs, and my husband and I currently have 1 of our own. I also have a cat who is very sweet and fun but also crazy and keeps us on our toes. My family has always had dogs and we’re all dog lovers. I have experience with puppies and older/senior pets. I have experience pet sitting for neighbors and family. You can rely on me to feed, walk, bathe, and provide love & attention to your pets! You can rely on me to closely watch your pet and to be attentive, as if it were my own. You can trust that they’ll be treated with the upmost care and that if I’m watching them at your home I’ll treat your home with respect and provide the best care possible! I also have access to Ellsworth AFB, my husband is active duty so I’d love to help out any other military families! I currently work from home, my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m usually working from 6 AM-2:30 PM. I only work Monday through Friday. I’m off on the weekends. Your pet will be treated as if they’re one of my own - loved and spoiled! Let me know if there are any particular routines that you follow with your pet and I’ll do my best to accommodate!

About: While I’m newer to caring for cats, I’m excited to provide them with the same love, patience, and attentive care that I give every animal. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in multiple times throughout the day, giving your cat plenty of attention, fresh food and water, litter box care, playtime (if they enjoy it!), and companionship. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your cat is in loving hands.

“Tannah is the sweetest! She watched our cat for us while we were out for a week. We enjoyed getting the daily updates and photos, and our kitty seems to have really taken to Tannah :) Totally recommend her!”

“Five stars! Jaiden was absolutely lovely helping me understand the Rover process. My cat came back relaxed and happy! She was an absolute lifesaver in this heat. Would 100000% book again and highly recommend.”

“We left our beloved dog Eddie with Linda while we went to the Badlands (because dogs aren't allowed on trails in national parks!) and she was welcoming and excited to have Eddie spend the day with her. He was happy and tired when we picked him up. Thanks Linda - it was reassuring to have you watch Eddie that day.”

“Alena was great! This was my first time using Rover and it was an excellent first experience. I hope all of my future experiences are as good as this one in terms of communication and convenience. Highly recommend! Thanks!!”

“My dog liked Jessica right away. He is a nervous dog, but was not nervous around her and he was happy when we picked him up. Jessica was very helpful and didn't mind introducing my dog to her cats and seeing how he was with them. Great experience!”

“Did amazing with our girl. She sent pictures throughout time and stayed in contact with us. Would definitely recommend Brittany to watch your fur babies. Will use her again when we come back to the area.”

About: My experience with animals is life-long. 💕 I am that person who understands animals and knows how to give them the space and attention they need to feel safe and loved. I have personally owned cats, dogs, hamsters, rabbits, geckos, and birds. A little about me: I am active and love to go for walks here in Rapid City. If I’m at a party, I’m the person who is hanging out in the kitchen with the cat or the doggo. 💕 I’m currently working at home full time on my computer, in an apartment in downtown Rapid City - able to take short breaks throughout the day. My office job workday ends at 3:30pm MT then I am free to give special 1-1 time or walks. I am in a large modern apartment with big windows, lots of space to play, snooze, or just hang out with me while I work on my computer. I do not have any children or pets in my home. I am close to the Hotel Alex Johnson and the Hyatt Place hotel.
About: 18 Acres of Fun! Besides working in the veterinary field as a certified veterinary assistant, I’ve had dogs and cats since I started walking back home in Puerto Rico. I was always rescuing all kinds of critters in the streets and finding them new homes. Big animals, small animals, shy animals, hyper animals, you name it! I've assisted anywhere from births to surgery, administered medications, vitals etc. Your furry friends are in good hands with me. I live on a ranch, so they’ll have plenty of space to run and play around while I also love taking them with me to explore the Black Hills trails. I’m currently dedicating my time to farm life while I wait for school to start in the fall, so I have all my time available to dedicate myself to your furry friends. I have a big farm of 18 acres with plenty of space to exercise your pups, also have enclosed areas available to offer them a safe and comfortable environment during their stay. But like I mentioned, I have all my time available so your furry friends will receive all my attention all day ❤️ It’s the perfect environment to keep them happy and stimulated while you’re gone. -Will do walks/hikes -Provide pictures/videos -Plenty of kisses & cuddles -Beeping color available if requested

“Such a pleasure to work with Shelby ! She was able to take my dog on a walk and play with her on short notice ! Indie looked like she had so much fun ! Thank you !”

“Wonderful to have a dog lover come in and walk my dogs when I’m away! She was always there when she said she would be and took them for good long walks! Will definitely use again!”

“Matilyn did a great job walking our dogs! She also let me that our female dog was showing signs of a UTI. Took her to the Vet the next day and sure enough, our dog did have a UTI! We would definitely rebook Matilyn!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. Family and friends always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and house sit for them while away on trips. I volunteered over 50 hours at the humane society, spreading as much love to all of the animals there. I have experience with small and large dogs (miniature pincher / Doberman). I also have experience with dogs and cats with diabetes. I’ve taken an animal CPR course also. I am able to accommodate to any pets specific schedule.

Majority of my clients are from referrals who can attest to the exceptional service I provide, your pet's well-being is my top priority.

“Nathan is phenomenal with Billy!! He not only takes him for walks but he helps him learn tricks and shows Billy all the attention he so craves. He is a puppy so patience is necessary and Nathan definitely has that. Nathan is great with communication as well, always letting me know how Billy is doing and if he sees that maybe something is off with Billy health wise. I definitely trust him to take great care of my pup. :)”

My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible, providing familiar schedules, plenty of love, patience, and personalized attention to help them feel safe and at ease. I’d also be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before your trip so your pet has the chance to get to know me, helping everyone feel more comfortable before the stay.

I am highly comfortable and confident in administering medications as needed as well as adhering to any specific dietary guidelines. I am a stay at home mom to my 11 month old son, so I have lots of time in my schedule to keep a close eye on your pet and give them as much attention as possible while you’re away!

I also have a large dog kennel in case that is at all needed.
About: I have taken care of all types of dogs of all different ages since I was very little. I believe walks should be enjoyable and safe. I adapt to each dog’s pace, offer patience for puppies, gentle care for seniors, and dependable communication for owners. Pet care fits really well into my weekends. I keep my schedule pretty flexible, so I’m able to focus on walks and give each dog my full attention without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep routines consistent, make sure pets are safe and comfortable, and always give them plenty of attention during visits and walks.
