Cat Sitting in Victor

“Melodi did a great job taking care of my kitties! It was nice getting updates and photos while away. Melodi was also very understanding when I had a last-minute schedule change so I really appreciated her flexibility. This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and Melodi made it a great experience!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, having grown up with them since the age of five. Caring for dogs has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely love giving them the attention, patience, and affection they deserve. Over the years, friends and family have consistently trusted me to care for their dogs while they’re away, knowing their pets would be safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feedings, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in being attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m now excited to turn this lifelong passion into something fulfilling and rewarding by offering reliable dog-sitting services. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace—and I always strive to create a calm, loving environment. My goal is for every dog in my care to feel happy, secure, and loved, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your dog will return to you just as happy as you make them. I work from home so will have plenty of time to play and give attention to your fur babies. I will make lots of time for playtime, walks and love. I have a fenced in yard or I can keep them crated if you need/want. Just depends on your preference. If you want me to dog sit at your house, I will follow whatever routine you already have with your dogs so they don’t even realize you are gone or mess their routine up too much.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a young child. I’ve had small, medium, and large dogs of different breeds in my care over the years. I have two dogs now that I live away from temporarily since my home was lost in a fire. I have a pit bull terrier and a blue heeler who are 7 and 3 years old respectively. I also take care of my mom’s little Pom when I stay with her. I am retired and am looking to taking care of your pets to keep me busy and in the company of some cute fur babies. Since I am retired I have lots of spare time to spend with your pets. I can care for them overnight also as the home I live in is big enough for them. I have a good sized, fenced in yard with no pets of my own right now so they will have my undivided attention. I live in a quiet neighborhood and live near a walking path that is dog friendly. There are also parks nearby that are pet friendly. Overnight sitting is not a problem at all. The home is privately owned so dogs are welcome here. I’m available for in home care also.

“What a wonderful Rover, Victoria,is very professional, communicates well, and, was in constant communication with us about our dog. We hope to use her next year when we are in town”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have 2 large breed dogs. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes and many different temperaments, as well as working with reactive dogs on leash. I worked for a short while in the boarding portion of a vet clinic and have experience with overnight care of dogs and cats who needed very specific care such as specific foods and medications. I currently work part time, mostly remote and have flexible hours so I can fit home visits and dog walks pretty easily into my day. I live in Hamilton, so the closer you are to Hamilton the more likely it would be that I could help with short notice. I have a car and am happy to drive your pup to the park. I am usually unavailable on weekends but could most likely make something work Monday through Friday! I cannot have dogs at my house but I am available to come to your house for visits during the day (I need to be home with my own pups overnight) and could spend a few hours there working remotely if they need a little more time together. I would love to get them out for a walk or even short hike as well!

About: I was born and raised in the bitterroot valley and have never left! I have house and pet sat since I was 12 and have always loved it. I’ve cared for pets as well as livestock such as chickens, goats, and even horses and a donkey! Aside for animals, I have cared for house plants and gardens. I am happy to clean your house and make it my priority to leave everything better than I found it! I can stay overnight night or perform simple daily checkups. And if all you need is someone to walk the dog (or dogs!) I’d love to take them for a stroll to the park or along a quiet river path! I have always grown up around animals and know that they have needs besides my own. That stated I always have time for morning and evening feedings or walks, and I am also happy to make time in the afternoon if required! At home I start my day making sure the pets and livestock are fed, watered, and comfortable even before myself! Whenever I can I check up on them to make sure all is well. If a fence is broken or a gate ajar I won’t hesitate to fix it!

“Holly is very patient, persistent, kind, and understanding of our rescue dogs. She’s also an excellent communicator. We greatly value her care and strongly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was a young kid. I have experience with newly born puppies, old dogs, and everything in between. I have fostered dogs for a few weeks at a time and love learning each animals personality! I’m currently working part time so I have a pretty open schedule! I am available on weekends and weekdays for plenty of play time with your animals! I used to clean houses for a living so I am no stranger to finding my way around a home and being around other people’s dogs! I am sure to follow strict instructions and keep your pet safe as if it were my own.

“Nickolas is great! Definitely recommend.”

About: Hello! I’ve been around animals my whole life! My family and I currently have 6 dogs and 2 cats, pigs and 2 horses I’m really active so my dogs are to. I’m currently working full time but would love to do stuff after and before work or dog sit overnight! I’ll make any schedule work for the animals. I’ll check for fenced yard, always make sure trash will be sealed or where the animal can’t get to it and make sure all the doors are shut and locked!

About: I've been fortunate to always have pets in my life, and I currently have a 6 year old black cat named Salem. I've done dog sitting for friends and family in the past, and I've never met a doggo I didn't like. I work remotely as an engineer for a Montana-based company, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule for drop in visits and overnight stays. I occasionally have to travel for work, but typically have at least a few weeks notice. Unfortunately unable to care for pets in my own home at this time, but I'm happy to stay overnight in yours if needed. Otherwise, happy to drop in during the day for visits, walks, etc.

About: I have been dogsitting for the past 5 years. I love taking care of animals. I am reliable and flexible. Please reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you! I am a 1st/2nd grade teacher down the Bitterroot! I work Monday-Thursday. I am available Friday, Saturday & Sunday! I would love to take care of some animals on the side. I offer services which would include drop in visits & overnight stays. I also am willing to do some extra cleaning if you are in need.

About: I’ve always loved pets and animals and after moving to Missoula am missing the two dogs I had with my younger sister so I’m looking for pets to connect with and care for while I don’t have any of my own. I work for Competitive Timing, a company that runs electronic timing for races and other running events. Because of that, I’m often gone traveling on weekends but during the weekdays I’m free to do whatever it is your pets would need and keep up their normal routine. I try to make the transition as seamless as possible caring for your pets in your home, on their usual routine, giving them lots of love and attention so that they feel safe and comfortable with me.

About: I’ve had cats since I was born, I have taken care of dogs for about 6 years, house sitting, walking, and just hanging out!! I truly love animals and many people have relied on me to take care of their fur babies! I work full time Monday-Friday but have the summers off. During the school year I am available for a drop in visit during my lunch and walks after work (4:30pm)! ai am pretty open on the weekends for drop ins or walks! I don’t offer pet sitting in my home, but I am usually good with any type of house set up when sitting at the owners house!

About: I have taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I have done much Cat sitting. I have also taken care of Birds and Reptiles I am conscientious, reliable, communicative and trustworthy. Your pet will be safe with me. When in my care they are top priority. Caring for your pet/s is my full time duty. Your pet is the utmost importance of safety, love ,comfort and I will follow your instructions precisely, in order to keep your pet happy and content.

About: Since I was 10 I’ve taken care of the pets in my family. Bunnies, dogs, cats, fish, gerbils and mice. I’ve given baths, taken dogs on runs, cuddled with kittens, played with bunnies. I’ve had to give medication to animals before. I’m quite active (trail runner) and really open to anything. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I work remote from home as a video editor and I get to decide my own schedule and hours everyday. That means I get to prioritize your pet or home first! I’ve grown up with animals all my life - so I suppose at this point it is just second nature to be around them. I make sure not to leave often, especially in the first 48 hours, so that I can help keep your pets relax as you leave. I try to spend a lot of intentional time with them up front so they get to know me and trust me. I once had to walk a dog 5 times between 10pm and 2am because it was nervous, but by the next day we were best friends. It just takes time and patience.

“Melanie was great! She looked in on my two cats while I was away, and gave them care & attention- gave me peace of mind they were well taken care of with her photos & note! I’ll definitely book her again, and have already recommended her to a friend!”

About: Hi. My name is Kirstan and I am excited that you took the time to look at my profile. I have always loved animals and taking them for walks and coming home to them after a work day. They seem to help me relieve stress and clam me right down. Even though I don't have one for myself due to being in a rental. Experience includes house sitting, dog walking, and extended stays for 3 weeks to over one month. I have watched up to 6 dogs at one time. I am currently working full time Monday through Friday 8-5. I am looking for after work to walk dogs and weekends. I do not work at home. I am flexible nights and weekends. Also can do stay overs. My place doesn't allow animals at this time so I cant offer boarding at my house. I live right now in a duplex which is a rental so iam not able to host any pets at my house due to landlord rules.
