Dog Walking Wisner Crossing

About: I have had many dogs growing up and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I have dog sat for many friends, family, and coworkers and am looking to provide the same service to you. My current housing will not allow pets, which of course, leaves me needing my fix of K-9 time. I work as a bartender, server and cook at the Olive Garden and mostly my shifts there start around four. So if you have a pug, bulldog, jack russel, german shepherd, lab, poodle, border collie, sheep dog, pit bull, doberman, wolf, direwolf, husky, cat, St. Bernard, Shitzu, husky, golden retriever, or any other animal that needs attention, walking, or just a friend, give me a call! Looking forward to making new furry friends!

About: Reliable, experienced, and genuinely happy to be there. That's what your dog gets with me. I'm a full-time professional pet sitter focused on drop-in visits and neighborhood walks, and I've been caring for animals for twenty years, from friends' and family's pets to 25+ five-star house-sitting stays through TrustedHousesitters, plus a growing record here on Rover. I've worked with puppies through seniors, high-energy dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs on complicated medication schedules. Most of what I do is simple, and I do it the same way every time. Your dog gets out, gets exercise suited to their age and energy, gets fed on schedule, and gets real attention instead of a rushed fifteen minutes. If they're reactive, shy, or slow to warm up to strangers, tell me. I'd rather move slowly on the first visit than push a dog who isn't ready. I answer messages the moment they come in, since my phone and watch are always on me, and I send photo updates through Rover Cards after every single visit. You'll never wonder whether I showed up. Pet care is my full-time work, not something I fit around another job. That means I can cover midday walks while you're at the office, twice-daily visits while you're traveling, and I'm often able to take same-day requests when something comes up. My calendar is updated daily. If you see availability, it's real. I care for pets in their own homes, where they're most comfortable. On the first visit I confirm the essentials in writing: entry and lockup, leash and harness setup, where the leash lives, any door or gate a dog can slip through, food storage and portions, and your vet's information. I lock up behind me every time, keep dogs leashed unless we're in a securely fenced space you've approved, and text you right away if anything seems off, whether it's a limp, a skipped meal, or an unusual mess. I'd rather send a message you didn't need than stay quiet about something that mattered. I'm also Pet First Aid & CPR certified, so if something more serious ever comes up, I have the training to respond rather than just guess what to do.

“We were delighted to meet Abby, she walked our mini schnauzer for a week. He can be a challenge but she was so understanding and communicative and put us at ease. She is kind, smart and trustworthy and we are so happy to look for her help in the future. She deserves all the stars, I can’t speak highly enough of her. Thank you Abby!”

About: I love dogs and would love the opportunity to watch yours. I am a very active person, I love being outside. I'm happy to take the dog out as much as you'd like, to the beach on hikes etc. I also have great references. I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

“Gibson enjoyed his walk with Liv. Thank you Liv.”

About: Hi all! I am originally from Bozeman and grew up with dogs- I enjoy going for walks and going to dog parks as well as just cuddling on the couch! I am a full time employee at the hospital and can easily do drop in walks or visits and will only accept jobs where I can meet the level of care your pet needs. I treat pets like a part of my family- since I am a renter I am unable to board animals at my house but would follow any guidelines set up by a client to make their pet feel like they are with family.

“My dog Reba was taken on a good long walk and loved it all. I have the pictures to prove it”

About: Hi! I’m Tara — a lifelong animal lover with a heart for senior pets, pups with special needs, and those with unique quirks. I’ve been living and working with dogs (and cats!) my whole life, and I’ve built some wonderful relationships on Rover always treating every pet like family. Located near the Bozeman airport, my home is an animal-friendly haven with cozy bedrooms, a large fenced yard for playtime, and two friendly resident pups, Oliver and Bailey, who love making new friends. I’m experienced with training, medication routines, and giving pets the extra patience and TLC they need to feel safe and happy. *Please enquire about extended stay or regular client discounts.* Whether your pet needs a comfy place to stay or just a little extra attention, I’ve got you covered — with love, play, and peace of mind. 🐶🐱💕 I am open to last minute plans, one time, as well as having regular guests. * Doggy Day Care is a 12 hour window from 7 am to 7pm, if you need longer daycare we can possibly modify for up to an additional 3 hours ( please enquire.) Naturally, all pets get treated like family. Whether at my home, or a clients home, everyone gets the attention and care they deserve. The innocent, precious nature of animals, especially one that is a part of a family holds an immeasurable value.

About: I’ve grown up with energetic dogs my entire life and have a lot of dog sitting and walking experience with many different breeds. I’ll ensure nothing but tail wags! I currently work a part time job, so will have plenty of time to walk, play with, feed and give lots of scratches to your pup I can follow any necessary schedule or instructions for pups and aim to eliminate any stress for you or your dog throughout the day. I even make healthy homemade dog treats!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats alike since I was 14 years old. My main experience in home has been with small/medium sized breeds as I have always lived in an apartment. However, I have dog sat larger breeds for my neighbors and a few friends before as well. I also used to volunteer at an animal shelter called NKLA with best friends society. Here I worked with cats and dogs. I cleaned kennels, socialized with animals to prepare them for adoption, and walked multiple dogs (mainly pitbull breeds). I have owned my own dog for the last 2.5 years who is a medium sized chihuahua/pitbull mix named Athena. She’s on a routine feeding schedule and is walked every 4-6 hours, last time being at 10pm. I have experience with bathing dogs but only have a tub at this current apartment. No grooming experience. I am also comfortable administering medications as my pup takes her own! I have also worked in small animal veterinary medicine. Currently work nights at MSU so I’m available anytime before 4pm. Also have Fridays and Saturdays off but tend to work our football games on occasion! I update my availability frequently once I know I’m out of town as well. I currently have a fenced in back-yard along with a very spacious home with an additional dog bed and a medium sized kennel as needed. My dog is super friendly minus feeding times which would be separated. I like to make sure at least a 30 minute walk twice a day is given & at least an hour overall of playtime. Especially for more energetic breeds!

About: Hi! I have a year of experience volunteering at Heart of the valley animal shelter here in Bozeman, as well as several years of dog/house sitting! Additionally, I have experience working in a senior care center for individuals with dementia. I’m currently working part time and a college student, which means I have some flexibility in my schedule! I’m available Monday and Wednesday 12:30-2:00 and anytime after 4:30. Tuesday and Thursday I’m available anytime before 8am and anytime after 5:45pm. Some Tuesdays and Thursday’s I’ll be open 8-12, depending on my lab for school! I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their comfort, safety, and routine my top priority. In a client's home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, exercise, and any special requests. During walks, I prioritize safe leash handling, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention. I also provide updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. I respect my clients' homes by keeping them clean, locking doors, and leaving everything just as I found it.

About: I have been dog sitting for about 5 years, I can manage medications or any needs your dog needs. I have one dog who is super friendly and gets along with any dogs!! I have sat in peoples houses and have kept them in my own. I take my dog on at least one walk a day and would make sure your dog got outside and has lots of play time! I have a dog of my own and I take her on a walk or throw to her daily! I let her out every 3-6 hours, and am available for different schedules! My dog is well trained but I let her on furniture and my bed. I would be willing to adjust based on each dogs needs. I live in the basement of a home and have plenty of room for a crate and some extra paws!

About: I have grown up with pets all my life and loved every second of it and wanted to incorporate animals into my life more since moving away. I have cared for many different breeds and sizes of dogs and loved every second of it. I am reliable, punctual and love going to walks or any type of play they want. I ensure your pet’s safety and happiness, as a happy dog is the best sight to see. I am currently an engineering student with classes until 2 pm at the latest. If your pets ever needs an early walk I am open on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays before 11am. Aside from that I am free on weekends whenever needed and I’m always open to last minute walks or anything I could help you with. I will prioritize your pets routine by strictly following any and all care instructions, the more specific the better. When in your home, I ensure everything stays clean and secure. I also love sending photo updates to show you how much fun your pet is having while you’re away! I will answer texts/calls promptly to keep you comfortable and up to date with anything you need.

“Katie was great with Lucy on her two visits here. She is responsible and a good communicator and clearly loves dogs. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I worked at a vet and learned how to give medication, including vaccines and pills. Learned how to understand and approach animals of all kinds and behaviors while being around adorable dogs and cats! I have two beagles at home Penny and Bailey that are the best! And make me want to watch and be with all the dogs I can! I am currently a sophomore at Montana State University. I am able to work around my class schedule specifically Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and the weekend are the best days for me to be of assistance! I’m happy to check on your pets multiple times a day walk them and feed them or just hang out with them! I can be flexible and adapt to different changes! I take my own two dogs for walks weekly. I’ve helped my neighbors and friends with checking in on their pets and feeding them breakfast and dinner! My dogs love to run in the yard and play with their toys, but also love to take a big long nap on the couch!

About: Like many pet lovers, I grew up with dogs: shar peis and miniature schnauzers. As an adult, I adopted a rescue puppy from Ecuador and brought him home to Montana. He was the most wonderfully behaved, well-adjusted companion and passed away in 2020. A couple of years later, I adopted a puppy from the Blackfeet Reservation. He's a cattle dog, german shephard, husky, labrador, etc., mix and 65 pounds. I trained him extensively and jumped into nose work with him! He's Amazing! He is currently living in Hawaii with my partner, who grew up training service dogs with his family. I've lived with many senior dogs and feel comfortable caring for puppies. I currently have a flexible schedule and can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. I'm happy to bring your pet with me on errands and include them in my routines. Depending on what your pup is used to, I can be flexible, keeping to their routine as well. I cannot offer to care for pets in my current rental. Time spent at my client's home will depend on the dog's needs, and the time of year (holiday, etc). There's situational flexibility. I prefer to do a meet and greet before accepting new house-sitting requests.

About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them. I’ve been sitter for neighbors and family since I was 16. I’m pretty good at communicating and asking for clarification especially when it comes to animals. Even with my own pets I’ve had to administer oral medication. My own dog is scared of loud noises and has some anxiety which I’ve helped comfort him a lot, if my animals are scared they’ve always come to me compared to anyone in my family. My schedule is pretty flexible, I do work mornings from about 7 am to 12pm other than that I am free. For housesitting, I can come check on animals every 0-4 hours. I will communicate and clarify if I have any questions. I’m currently working part time and in the mornings. So I’m available to sit after 12 Monday through Friday. I have a pretty flexible schedule. Feel free to reach out. I’ve had different experiences dog sitting. Mostly it’s been just hanging out with them and checking up on them. I’m a pretty social person and animal lover so I love taking dogs on walks too.

About: I have owned dogs and a wide variety of other animal my entire life. I find joy in taking care of them! Providing care for your animals will be a pleasure and fun experience for the both of us. I have a very flexible schedule with the ability to make your furry friends my main priority. I have also trained just about every dog that I have had. I can not only take care of your dogs, but other animals, too, if that is a necessity. Photo Updates Included! Thank you for considering me as an option when looking for a caregiver for your dogs! I work part-time currently and am able to make my own schedule. Let me know what schedule you need care and I will be able to make something work! I have a fenced in yard, a dog door in the house, and a mini golden doodle that is super friendly and loves to make new friends.
