About: I (Andi) have cared for and loved dogs my entire life. I grew up with my family having german shepherds, scottish terriers, poodles, and labradoodles (not all at the same time, but still quite the variety!) I was lucky enough, as an adult, to have a really special dog for her entire life. The life of a dog is short, so I truly value packing in as much love and adventure as I can into their life. I would be honored to spend time with your pup, doing whatever they need, whether it's a a walk, hike, a drive to get a pup-cup, or anything else to care for and love them while you are away. Dogs are just the best and they deserve the best. Dogs bring so much joy to my life and I'm hopeful I can bring joy to your dog's life, as well as have both you and your pup at ease while you are away from your sweet pup. We currently have a 5 year old labradoodle and he’s pretty chill and friendly with other pups and kids. We also have a 6 year old human in the house , she is good with dogs and also always supervised when with dogs. We would love to meet you and your pup 🐾 *Additional info about me: - I plan to complete Animal First Aid & CPR training by the end of 2026. 🐾❤️ For pet/house sitting, it will just be me (Andi). For house sitting services, I provide overnight care in your home and maintain your pet's normal routine. I may leave throughout the day for work, errands, family time, etc but I always ensure your pet receives the care, attention, potty breaks, meals, exercise, and all the snuggles they need. If your pet requires a more constant-care schedule, please discuss those needs before booking. Feel free to use this code for $20 off your first booking if you’re new to rover: https://www.rover.com/sit/andih05314 We work from home so are able to be with your pet for a lot of the day:) We may be available for last minute needs so feel free to send a request over. We have a 5 year old labradoodle who usually gets 2 daily walks and we go outside to the backyard to hang out too:) Your pup will be with me and my husband most of the day (we both work remote), but if left, will never be left for more than 4 hours at a time. I'm able to crate your pup if that is how they do best, or gate off a safe area for them. I am an expert at administering medications to your pup if needed. They will get plenty of outdoor time, whether it’s a neighborhood walk or throwing frisbee/ball/etc if that’s what they love! Also, happy to take them on outings when I have them, if they like outings (drives, pup cups, hikes, park walks, beach , etc)
About: Hi, my name is John, and I live in the Browns Point area. I am a college student and do online school, so my hours are pretty flexible. I have also had a special connection with animals and really care about their well being. I have had many animals growing up, such as dogs, cats, and chickens. I have not had much professional experience in pet care, but I am responsible and will ensure that all of your animal's needs are fulfilled. I love all dogs, big or small!!! I also have some experience with bird care and animals with special needs! Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have. Thank you. . . . . . . . .
About: I have own dogs, my whole life and have extensive experience in caring for them daily. I am comfortable with all different sizes and personalities and all the needs that come with them you furry friend! I’m currently working a part-time job so I’ll have plenty of time to play and care for your dog. I can also do boarding and all of the responsibilities that come with that. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of room to play and a nice neighborhood to walk in with dog parks nearby. I also have room to crate the dog if needed.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and needs. Last year, I rescued a senior dog and cared for him through recovery from double leg surgery, giving me firsthand experience with post-procedure care, mobility support, and close monitoring. I also administered monthly arthritis injections, so I’m comfortable giving injectable medications when needed. That summer, I took him to Alaska, where we spent our time hiking and enjoying the outdoors together. He sadly passed away from old age after a wonderful year, but caring for him reinforced my passion for providing patient, loving, and attentive care to animals. I currently have two female cats of my own, ages 4 and 5. One requires oral medication twice daily, so I’m very comfortable administering oral meds as well. I’m also fostering a friend’s male cat while she’s away at school, giving me experience managing multi-pet households. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I plan my schedule to make sure pets are never left waiting for attention or potty breaks. On days I have classes, I structure visits and walks around them so dogs get potty breaks every 3–4 hours at most, and often more frequently depending on their needs. I have no classes on Wednesdays, which allows for extra flexibility, longer visits, and additional walks or enrichment. I also aim to get 10,000 steps daily and frequently walk my neighbor’s dog at Camel’s Back Park, so regular walks and outdoor time are already part of my routine. Overall, pets in my care can expect consistent check-ins, timely potty breaks, and plenty of movement and attention throughout the day, with schedules tailored to each pet’s needs and comfort. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a second-story apartment with no yard, which means pets are always leashed and closely supervised when outside. I’m careful with doors, stairways, and transitions in and out of the apartment to ensure pets stay secure at all times. While I don’t have a private yard, I’m located very close to Camel’s Back Park, allowing for regular, structured walks and fresh-air breaks in a safe, familiar environment. I tailor outings to each pet’s energy level and needs, whether that’s a calm stroll or extra time to explore. Inside, my home is clean, pet-friendly, and calm, with plenty of attention given to monitoring behavior, comfort, and safety. I follow all owner instructions closely to make sure pets feel secure and cared for in my home and during every outing.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals for both friends and family. I’m quick to learn and can easily adapt to each animals needs. I just moved to Boise full time for a project and don’t have pets of my own so I’m looking to help someone out with walks or sitting to get my animal fix in! I don’t have any pets of my own but every roomate I’ve had has had a dog and I help take care whenever I can. Whether that’s feeding them, walking them, playing or just cuddling I’m always available to help!
About: I grew up in a home filled with animals. We had cats, birds and dogs, all whom I loved & made quality time for. I have 12+ years of experience taking care of a variety of pets including ferrets, birds, rats, fish, cats & dogs & more, for family, friends & local community members. I also had two cats of my own, who were the center of my world, for the past 4yrs & recently got a new cat who runs the home (as cats do). I strive to accommodate to the needs of both you & your pet(s) so that you both feel comfortable. Whether that’s adjusting my schedule where I can to maintain their routine, to sending you pictures of your pet(s) while I’m caring for them. I love going for adventures, though if your pet just needs some rest I’m happy to snuggle up by their side while reading a book or crocheting (yes I will crochet them toys & sweaters if you’d like). Regardless, I’m here for them. I also have a car for transportation to & from your place for caregiving, & am familiar with the local emergency vets in the rare instance they have an emergency. I hope to be the purrfect match for your pet’s needs! I work in downtown Boise. My typical work schedule is M-Th, 8.45am-4.45pm & I’m off F-Su. I usually have a lot of flexibility on my days off. Every 3rd week of the month my work schedule changes on T-Th to 11am-7pm. Depending on your pets needs & distance from my work (around downtown Boise) I may be available for a midday check-in. I know I have these days marked as unavailable on Rover, so if you’re curious to know if I’d be available T-Th, please feel free to reach out when booking :) I have experience working with crates, if your pet uses one, & administering medications. My #1 priority is to keep your pet safe & keep you updated regarding any health concerns because the last thing you need is to feel stressed about your pet’s wellbeing while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up around a lot of dogs, big and small, so I’m pretty familiar with the temperament, aggressive affection and redirection strategies to help reduce behaviors. As a Boise School District employee, I may be away for up to 8 hours (7-3) while school is in session. Weekends are best for house-sitting or longer visits, and weekday drop-ins are still available before/after work. I’m happy to discuss schedules to make sure your pets get the care they need while you’re away! Sadly, my home isn’t quite spacious enough for another furry friend to romp around, so I’ll come to you! I have experience with many different breeds and personalities, and I always focus on keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet company, your pup will be cared for like they’re my own.

About: I've always had a pet or two growing up and have never been without a dog. Many friends, coworkers, and neighbors have trusted me to watch over their dogs. I can handle reactivity and pullers. I have a husky/lab mix myself but I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to hangout with your animal companion! I am available weekends and after 2pm on weekdays. I love to play with animals of all shapes and sizes, as I have a cat, dog and even a toad myself. Going on walks with a dog is the highlight of my day. I am flexible with whatever the animals' needs are.
“Aaron did a marvelous job caring for our little cat! We are so thankful for him helping us while we were out of town. Aaron was very caring and thorough and did everything we asked for our little guy. We received a summary of their time together for each visit and soo many sweet pictures of our kitty! I highly recommend contacting Aaron for all your pet needs. We will absolutely be booking with him again. Thank you Aaron <3”


About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years, including watching dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. I’ve also had my own dog since I was a kid, so I’m very comfortable with the responsibility that comes with taking care of an animal. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s going for walks, playing, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m a full-time college student, so my schedule is flexible and I have plenty of availability for pet care! I’m available to watch pets full-time from Friday through Sunday, and during the week I have free time between classes for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins. I’m also available for overnight stays during the week, making it easy to provide consistent care and attention while you’re away. I prefer watching pets in their own home, where they’re already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I think staying in their own space helps make the experience less stressful, especially when their owners are away. I’ll follow their usual routines, make sure they’re fed and cared for, and give them plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure to keep their home clean, secure, and just as I found it :)

About: I’ve dog-sat since I was 7 for neighbors and grandparents, and I’ve had dogs my whole life. I truly love animals, especially dogs, with my whole heart. I’ve fostered 9‑week‑old golden retriever puppies until they were adopted. When I moved to Boise for college, one of the hardest parts was not having my dog with me every day, caring for dogs has always been a huge part of my life so I am excited to spend time with your dog! I just graduated from Boise State and work an 8am-5pm Monday-Friday job. I have plenty of time on weekends or even after work for a walk or to check in on your dog. Even if you are looking for a specific time that might not work with that schedule feel free to reach out still! I live in an apartment with a small balcony and direct access to the greenbelt, which makes on-leash walks very easy! When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow each dog's normal routine, whether that is walks, playtime, feeding, and, of course plenty of affection! I truly love dogs, so I will go the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy!
About: My whole life has been spent with animals, dogs especially. My passion runs deep for beautiful creatures and I would do anything in my power to give them a helping hand. I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't have at least one dog, along with many other animals. Before becoming a mother, I spent a lot of my free time working and volunteering at at various shelters and fostering animals. I have assisted/monitored many dogs during birth and helped to raise more puppies than I can count. Please keep in mind that I have two kids so your animals must do well with small children if I am boarding. You won't regret choosing someone like myself to take care of your dog (or any other animal) because I will treat him or her as if they were my own. Send me a message and book a vacation!
About: I am a huge animal lover. I love to play with my cat at home and I love playing with other people's pets as well. I think that animals are really important and that they should be treated as such. Right now my daily activities are going to school and work. I believe that I am a pet professional because I love animals and I will take care of them and treat them the way that they should be. Some people treat them like their kids and so I am willing to make sure that they are taken care of as such. I'm currently working full-time, but I am off on Thursdays, Saturdays/Sundays. I can also make time after I get off at 6pm during the rest of the week. For me, my cat is an indoor only cat so I do make sure that when I leave that she isn't behind me for her to go outside. When taking care of your animals, I will do my best to make sure they are safe in your home and that they are where they need to be.
About: I love animals and think they deserve the world. I have 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. I'd love the chance to walk, snuggle, or stay with your fur baby I'm currently working a part-time job as an RBT with kids on the autism spectrum. I have a variety of times during my week that are open. I will take care of your pet as I would my own. I am able to give medicine, crate, play with, love on, and walk your animal. Their happiness and safety is my priority.
About: I’ve been caring for pets most of my life. I’ve had a dog since I was 10 years old and have also cared for my cat for the past 4 years. In addition to my own pets, I regularly walk and look after family friends’ dogs and cats, giving me experience with different breeds, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I am currently working full time and my hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 8am-4pm. I would have to be away from your pet for those hours. I would love to sit for you and make sure your pet is well taken care of and is the most comfortable they can be while you are away. Please contact if I sound like the right fit for you and your four-legged friend. When I care for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep them comfortable and follow their normal routine. I make sure they get fresh food and water, daily walks or playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m reliable about following any special instructions you provide, whether that’s giving medications, sticking to a feeding schedule, or keeping up with their favorite activities. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am also more than happy to send photo updates to mom or dad if wanted:)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Boise
She did great with Gunner! Came by to do a meet and greet as well as to go over information needed for the visits. She kept in touch with me each day if there were any questions or concerns and sent lots of photos as well. She took him out on daily walks and played with him as well as made sure to follow any training we were doing with him. Would definitely rebook with her again in the future

Christin is amazing! One of my dogs can take a while to warm up to new people and she warmed up to Christin right away. She provides great pictures/ comments about her drop-in visits and communicated really well. She gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was out of town and I would give her more than 5 stars if I could!

Phoenix (Lea H.) did a great job checking in on my new puppy while I was gone for a couple of hours. This was the first time I would be absent from the house in the two weeks since I have had him and I was very anxious about leaving my 10-week old puppy alone in his crate. Phoenix put me at ease with her knowledge of "all things puppy" and her pleasant, quiet demeanor. I was especially grateful she sent me a picture of my sweet Bobby, and kept me informed of his activities. All things seemed to go quite well and I am much relieved. I would definitely ask Phoenix (Lea) to watch him again.

Ciera and James have been wonderful with drop-in visits for Knox! They communicate really well, are reliable, and take great care of him during each visit. I always feel confident knowing Knox is in good hands with them. They’re attentive to his needs and treat him with genuine care. I would definitely recommend Ciera and James and will happily have them look after Knox again!

Jessie was so amazing with Tiki! She always would respond in a pronto manner which made me feel at ease. Her pictures were amazing and she always was on time for the appts! I will be using her services again for sure! Thank you so much Jessie! P.S. I think my dog misses her lol

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Boise is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,451 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Boise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Boise choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Boise with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boise. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
