“Caroline and Alena are fantastic - great communicators, they sent pics and videos, and they seemed to truly enjoy my pup, which just felt good. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and I highly recommend them! My gratitude to you both!”
“Gianna does a great job! She loves my dog just as her own which makes leaving easier knowing my dog is in great care. She always sends pictures which I love and is quick to get a hold of. Thank you for always watching Loti”
“Linda took such great care of Niner while we were out of town! We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her communication was excellent, and we loved getting all the picture updates. We would absolutely trust her to watch Niner again!”
“Jessica was very easy to communicate with, has a wonderful home and family. She provided frequent videos , photos and texts updates as requested. Would feel very comfortable leaving my pet with her in the future !”
“From the first meet and greet, Brooke has been so nice and definitely exudes love for the dogs she cares for. During my dog's stay there were some behavior issues which Brooke handled exceptionally well. I got daily updates and many times more than once a day which eased my Mama-heart tremendously. It's never easy leaving my kid with others. I am very impressed! My dog told me she enjoyed staying with Brooke also. :) I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Hector and Sofia have now welcomed and cared for my 2-year-old dog, Wilson, three times this year. Most recently, they stepped in on very short notice for a last-minute trip I had to Baltimore, and I can’t express how grateful I am for their hospitality and flexibility. I know Wilson is always in good hands with them – they treat him with such love and care. I highly recommend Hector and Sofia to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters. Thank you both again for everything!”
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.
“Jaiden was so great and welcoming to Loki! She was so nice and sent adorable pictures. Loki got along well with her dog, and came back happy and tired. We are just traveling through, but would definitely use her again if we are in the area!”
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!

“We loved having Margaret stay at our home and watch our Westie. She is exceptionally professional, punctual, friendly, caring and an all-around awesome person. We greatly appreciated her clear communication. Margaret texted us regular updates and photos. She took great care of our pup, following all of our intricate care instructions. She also kept the house in perfect shape. A++ experience”

“Monet was right on time for the meet and greet, followed all the instructions during the drop ins, and my cats were comfortable with her right away! I would definitely book with her again!”
“Amanda always does an amazing job of checking in on my cat and keeping an open line of communication. Amanda is very flexible and is always just a call or text away. As always, I would recommend Amanda!”
“I couldn't of been more grateful to find Chelsea to take care of Butter and Waffles like they were her own! She made sure to give consistent updates and follow their quirky needs/schedule that put my mind to ease. I could tell my kitties were really happy with her care! ☺️ She has such a genuine heart and made sure to leave my home better than when we left which was also SO nice to come back to after a long international flight. She really went above and beyond, I would definitely book with her again! ?”
“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.”
“Faith went the extra mile to make sure our cat was cared for, and we were so thankful! She was responsive, friendly and sent us updates while we were away. We enjoyed meeting her before our trip.”
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.
“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!”
“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.”
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.
“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!”
“Gio had a great time with Caroline and her house today: following her around the yard while she planted, and getting loves and a nap in the house. I would definitely have him come again. And he got a cute bag, and a dapper tie.”
“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 ❤️”
“I believe Bodhi loved his time with Brittany, despite being ready to leave when I picked him up (he has seperation anxiety). I'm looking forward to Bodhi becoming more and more comfortable with her when I use her again for boarding :)”
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

“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!”
