“Talon watched our pup for us on short notice while we were camping in the Black Hills. She kept us updated with photos and did a wonderful job easing his anxiety. We definitely use Talon again if we find ourselves in the Black Hills in the future!”

“Ally is our baby. She is very spoiled and highly energetic. We were very concerned and apprehensive about leaving her with anyone. As she is always with us and never been away from us for an extended period of time. But Ms. Linda eased my mind when I first met her. She has a wonderful facility with lots of room for an energetic puppy to play. Linda kept me informed daily and sent me pictures of Ally’s daily routine. I would recommend her to anyone and will request her for future brooding.”

“Gus was so happy! It was good to see Gus was getting so much love and attention while we were away — and lots of outside time. And he even had a spa day and came back clean and white. Thank you so much! It was so appreciated to get the daily updates and pictures! We didn’t have to wonder how he was doing at all— we could see he was doing well! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, cows, and horses. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for animals of different ages, sizes, and needs. Whether it’s keeping a puppy entertained, giving a senior pet extra patience and attention, or simply providing companionship, walks, playtime, and lots of love, I treat every pet like they’re my own. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I have with animals and the care I put into making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and attention based on your pet’s individual needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and rest. I’m respectful of each client’s home and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving plenty of attention and care while you’re away.

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 also have experience working with elder dogs and daily medicine administration. 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: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pup will receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I welcome well-behaved, house-trained dogs that are friendly with children and other dogs. My goal is to make your pet feel like part of the family while you’re away! * Fenced yard * Comfortable administering medications * Daily walks * Experience with large/giant breeds * Experience with anxious dogs As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout most of the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be cared for as part of our daily routine. I am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and enjoy time outside. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and crate use if needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Because I have young children in the home, I only accept dogs that are friendly with children and comfortable in a family environment. Meet-and-greets are welcome to help ensure a good fit for everyone.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I also have a dog that loves to play with other dogs. Willing to walk dogs and spend time with your dog in your home or mine. I do have a 1 year old who will be with me. Preferred if dog is good with kids and of course I will monitor my child around your animal (as I do with my own dog). I like to take our dog running in the hills usually off leash. My dog has a training collar so if that is something your dog has or is good at coming back when called, they will be a good fit! I work part time, each week is different for what day. Only 2-3 a week. I have a dog at home who loves to play with other dogs as well. He’s a husker/golden. We love to take him for runs (mostly because he’s chubby) and he loves to cuddle. So we know all about cuddly pets. I have a fenced yard and a 1 year old son. I am easy to let dogs out and or go for walks (love to get exercise in). Fresh air is the best and getting out of the house! I know the importance of being present with your dog.. I love when people stay to give my dog company and not make him feel lonely.

About: Hey there! I have fostered many dogs in the past. Some for months, until I can help find a great home for them. My back yard in completely fenced, and is a 1/4th of an acre! Lots of area to play, and they will have a nice clean and warm house to come into after! I will follow all of your instructions when taking care of your pet, and care for them like my own! I find myself different from other people because I have a great back yard and very deep love for all breeds and sizes. I will also walk them when the weather is nice, I hope you choose me to take care of your lovely pup. I can also send pictures/ updates daily! I am fully self employed, so at the office here and there! Home most of the time! I work close by so have the flexibility to come and go. I will take care of your pets like my own! I will do overnights, during the day if I know I’ll be home most of the time.

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: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I grew up, always having at least two dogs in the house, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’ve also dog sat on many occasions for family members and friends, whether it was for a day or a whole weekend. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and of course, plenty of attention and cuddles! I understand the importance of needing someone you trust to care for your pets and you can trust me to treat your dogs like they’re my own :) I typically work three 12-hour shifts in a row which leaves me with several days off to spend with your pets during the week! This provides me with plenty of time to make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need rather than being left alone for long periods. You can trust that your dog can feel safe and comfortable at my home in my care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely get outside for potty breaks and playtime, along with access to nearby parks and walking trails for plenty of exercise and exploring. I also have toys and treats available to make their stay extra fun. When caring for pets in my own home, I’m happy to follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedule, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know pets are often most comfortable in their usual routine/home, so I’ll make sure they get lots of attention and care while they’re away and of course I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“I’ve known Linda for several years, and implicitly trusted her with my German Shepard. I was in a pickle, was kind of last minute preparation for me ( I usually have everything written down, food bags prepared and labeled…) to leave home and have her watch my dog. He needs medication with his diet or he can’t digest what he eats, which was no issue with her. She sends pics and videos, and great communication, to help the ease of being separated from my best buddy and travel partner. She ‘speaks’ dog, reads and knows their energy. The facility is a dog’s haven and resort! I am sure my dog will love going back for a ‘dogcation’!”

Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for animals of different ages, sizes, and needs. Whether it’s keeping a puppy entertained, giving a senior pet extra patience and attention, or simply providing companionship, walks, playtime, and lots of love, I treat every pet like they’re my own. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I have with animals and the care I put into making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and attention based on your pet’s individual needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, medications if needed, playtime, and rest. I’m respectful of each client’s home and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving plenty of attention and care while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I also have a dog that loves to play with other dogs. Willing to walk dogs and spend time with your dog in your home or mine. I do have a 1 year old who will be with me. Preferred if dog is good with kids and of course I will monitor my child around your animal (as I do with my own dog). I like to take our dog running in the hills usually off leash. My dog has a training collar so if that is something your dog has or is good at coming back when called, they will be a good fit! I work part time, each week is different for what day. Only 2-3 a week. I have a dog at home who loves to play with other dogs as well. He’s a husker/golden. We love to take him for runs (mostly because he’s chubby) and he loves to cuddle. So we know all about cuddly pets. I have a fenced yard and a 1 year old son. I am easy to let dogs out and or go for walks (love to get exercise in). Fresh air is the best and getting out of the house! I know the importance of being present with your dog.. I love when people stay to give my dog company and not make him feel lonely.

“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 ❤️”

“We had a great experience with Alissa and her pup Oakley. They took very good care of my 8 month old pup, Boone, who is extremely needy, high energy, and sometimes misbehaved. She handled him well, and he was excited to go back the following day. Hoping she will agree to watch him for future visits.”

About: I have extensive experience in animal care, having grown up rehabilitating, caring for, and training a wide range of animals, from small squirrels to large horses. With several years of experience as a veterinary technician, I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. Over the past several years, I have also provided pet sitting services, caring for both young and elderly animals, as well as those with special needs. 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 1 year 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 have a fenced back yard which is perfect for playtime or just to hang out and get some sun! My own dog loves to run around up and down the hill in our yard! I also have a large dog kennel in case that is at all needed.

“Ally is our baby. She is very spoiled and highly energetic. We were very concerned and apprehensive about leaving her with anyone. As she is always with us and never been away from us for an extended period of time. But Ms. Linda eased my mind when I first met her. She has a wonderful facility with lots of room for an energetic puppy to play. Linda kept me informed daily and sent me pictures of Ally’s daily routine. I would recommend her to anyone and will request her for future brooding.”

About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pup will receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I welcome well-behaved, house-trained dogs that are friendly with children and other dogs. My goal is to make your pet feel like part of the family while you’re away! * Fenced yard * Comfortable administering medications * Daily walks * Experience with large/giant breeds * Experience with anxious dogs As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout most of the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be cared for as part of our daily routine. I am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and enjoy time outside. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and crate use if needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Because I have young children in the home, I only accept dogs that are friendly with children and comfortable in a family environment. Meet-and-greets are welcome to help ensure a good fit for everyone.

About: Hey there! I have fostered many dogs in the past. Some for months, until I can help find a great home for them. My back yard in completely fenced, and is a 1/4th of an acre! Lots of area to play, and they will have a nice clean and warm house to come into after! I will follow all of your instructions when taking care of your pet, and care for them like my own! I find myself different from other people because I have a great back yard and very deep love for all breeds and sizes. I will also walk them when the weather is nice, I hope you choose me to take care of your lovely pup. I can also send pictures/ updates daily! I am fully self employed, so at the office here and there! Home most of the time! I work close by so have the flexibility to come and go. I will take care of your pets like my own! I will do overnights, during the day if I know I’ll be home most of the time.

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: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I grew up, always having at least two dogs in the house, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’ve also dog sat on many occasions for family members and friends, whether it was for a day or a whole weekend. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and of course, plenty of attention and cuddles! I understand the importance of needing someone you trust to care for your pets and you can trust me to treat your dogs like they’re my own :) I typically work three 12-hour shifts in a row which leaves me with several days off to spend with your pets during the week! This provides me with plenty of time to make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need rather than being left alone for long periods. You can trust that your dog can feel safe and comfortable at my home in my care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely get outside for potty breaks and playtime, along with access to nearby parks and walking trails for plenty of exercise and exploring. I also have toys and treats available to make their stay extra fun. When caring for pets in my own home, I’m happy to follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedule, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know pets are often most comfortable in their usual routine/home, so I’ll make sure they get lots of attention and care while they’re away and of course I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
