“We have a reactive and shy dog, and because of this we have never left him with a sitter. We decided to give Rover a try and that is where we met Shylina. She did an amazing job. She took a shy dog that wanted nothing to do with her at the beginning, to a dog that wanted to cuddle with her in bed at night. We highly recommend Shylina. We will definitely use her again.”
“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”
“Desiree was so good to my girl Maxine! Great communication and this girl obviously loves dogs and is so good with them! Thank you Desiree for making my weekend away worry free! ❤️”
“Jenny put up with our ridiculous Frenchies and even collected eggs from the chickens each day. The house was in the shape we left it and she communicated each day with updates. Would recommend!”
About: I have owned and taken care of many types of animals since I was 5. I currently work at a dog daycare and lodging establishment.

I value the saftey and health of all pets, I have training in observing unusual behaviors in animals. I highly value communication and honesty with you as the owner especially when I notice these behaviors.

About: Growing up I loved animals more than anything. Over the past years I’ve come to own rabbits, guinea pigs, wiener dogs, even a hedgehog. Over the years I’ve also volunteered at the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter and job shadowed at some veterinary clinics here in Billings. From time to time I would pet sit my neighbor’s dog over the summer and in college I cat sit for my friends who had to go on trips. I also have experience with trimming nails, giving medication, taking care of elderly pets since one of my dogs is 17 years old, and taking care of puppies since my family got one last year. While I care for your pets I will send pictures and updates on your little fur baby so you don't have to worry throughout the day. I currently have free time since I'm on break from college . This means my time will solely be dedicated to caring for your pets. Each pet is different and I will cater to their needs, whether it's giving them a walk to burn off some steam or just keeping them company.

Axel S.
“Axel has been one of my closest friends for roughly 7 years and in that time he has become one of my most trusted friends, especially when it comes to my animals. Axel has a natural connection with animals and has been surrounded by a diverse range throughout his life, including dogs, cats, sheep, goats, horses, chickens, and ducks. He has helped me care for my cat and fish while I was away out of town, and he consistently went above and beyond my expectations. Axel has also taught me a lot about handling horses, especially through his bond and experience with his gelding, Stormy. I've enjoyed visits to his family's farm and it's clear how happy and well-cared-for the animals are. His passion for animals and the calm, respectful way he interacts with them leads me to believe he would be a fantastic candidate for this job position.”
