About: I have extensive pet care experience that began at a young age. I started my own dog-walking business at 12 years old, providing regular walks and basic care for multiple dogs. Since the age of 14, I have had a dog in my family and have been responsible for daily care, including feeding, exercise, and companionship. I have also provided overnight dog-sitting in clients’ homes on one or two occasions, ensuring pets were cared for in a calm, familiar environment. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I am currently a college student majoring in nursing with a flexible schedule, and I am hoping to fill some of my free time caring for and spending time with pet friends. I am currently a college student with a very flexible schedule. I do not have other employment commitments, which allows me to dedicate ample time and availability to pet care. For dog care, I typically take at least one walk each day on my own time, so bringing a dog along would be no issue. For in-home services, I ensure pets are let outside for bathroom breaks, receive playtime and exercise, and are given plenty of attention and affection. This may include a walk if requested by the owner. I am also able to spend extended time in the home providing companionship, during which I can quietly work on homework while ensuring the pet feels comfortable, engaged, and well cared for.
“Emily is the best! We needed someone to let our puppy out mid day while we are at work and feel so lucky to have found Emily! She comes to get Sawyer and takes her on off leash hikes and adventures, and our pup also gets to socialize and play with other dogs shes watching or walking. She is very responsive and also sends pictures from the hikes that show our pup having the best time.”
“Christin did an excellent job taking care of my baby! My dog was so happy to have Christin take her out on a walk, and tailored the walk to my dog’s need (very slow and full of sniffing and belly rubs). We will book with Christin again in the future! Thank you!”
“Anastasia was great, truly professional. She offered to come over for a little meet and greet ahead of time. On the day of, she confirmed in the app and was timely in arriving. She took such sweet care of my pup and provided several photos of their adventures together. It is such a stress relief to know that my girl is getting nice, long walks during my working days now. We will be using Anatasia regularly!”
“Craig is the absolute best!! And Gunner clearly loves him. Craig goes above and beyond, with adorable pictures and letting me know when the session begins and ends , as well as the route they walked. He is highly reliable always shows up on time. We love Craig!”
“I am not sure how but I believe Nicole taught my dog some manners while she walked her. Nicole has cared for my dog and\ cat and is very reliable, I love not worrying about my pets when I am away.”
“Hatcher did a great job with my Alfie! He walked him around the neighborhood while I was at work, and he sent me several pictures of him, which really made my day! He was highly communicative throughout the whole process, which I really appreciated.”
About: I’ve lived with cats of my own my whole life. I have experience pet sitting dogs and cats since I was 8. I’ve always grown up around dogs and have a love for any and all pets! I am a full time student at Boise State University, but have a very flexible schedule that will allow me to care for your pets whenever is needed. In my home we have an open loving environment for our cat that has all the essentials needed for her to thrive. I can take care of your animal in any way that you prefer and that is fitting for them.
“Alanah was able to help us with some last minute help that we needed for our pup. Very responsive and flexible. Our dog was very excited go on walks with Alanah! Highly recommend her!”
About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Cynthia, and I’m so glad you stopped by... I live in the beautiful North End of Boise and have been pet-sitting for years, caring for dogs and cats! Consider me your trusted ally who is dedicated to enriching your pet's daily experience while simplifying yours. I grew up with Saint Bernards, so handling large dogs is second nature to me. Our home was always full of animals—strays, rescues, and the occasional “foster fail” who became family. We made room for whoever needed it, and that mindset has stayed with me ever since. I’m comfortable with a full range of pet temperaments, whether they’re anxious zoomers or mellow seniors who just want a calm presence and some TLC. Got a skittish kitty? A bossy little lion? No worries, I speak fluent feline! With a background in cat enrichment and behavior modification, I have a knack for earning the trust of even the most standoffish and secretive cats. Whether your furry companion is shy, bold, or somewhere in between, I can read kitties well, and I always bring a calm, grounded energy that helps them feel safe and secure. I’m also borderline obsessive (in a good way) about secure entries and exits. If your pet is a known escape artist, trust that I’ll take special care not to let them out! Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, playtime, you name it. Also, please ask me anything if you can't find it in my profile! I'm happy to discuss extra services that you or your pet needs to feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away! I am recently retired early from the tech industry and now have time to give back to my community and neighbors! I'm available 7 days a week, and for overnights if needed and if the fit is right! Contact me anytime, and we can coordinate something that works, whether it's just hanging out with your pet or having a fun adventure! I've lived a lifetime with pets and rescued animals, so for me they are family. I treat all living things with respect, understanding, and care. I'm always thinking ahead of potential scenarios when planning any outings, making sure I'm prepared with extra leashes, treats, and/or a strong understanding of an area and what to expect.
About: I’ve cared for neighborhood animals since I was around 11 and got my own dogs at 12. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and energy levels and love them all. I’m an RN looking to spend some quality time with some good puppies. I work three days a week 7a-7p and in August will go part time while I’m in grad school. I live in an apartment so walks and hanging out at the doggo’s house would be best. I am very responsible and can’t wait to throw a frisbee, go on walks, and cuddle with the puppers.
“Stephanie is professional and a true animal lover. She is responsive to all of Rocky’s needs and appreciates his idiosyncrasies. Very responsive to communication and goes the extra mile.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Boise
Olivia has been amazing with our anxious Chihuahua. She has been incredibly patient and communicative while walking and taking caring of him. It's clear that she cares about his well-being and goes the extra mile to make sure all of his needs are met. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker/sitter.
Craig obviously enjoys his work and is especially fond of my pup because she is an eager and willing walker. I am unable to give her the exercise she needs, so Im thrilled to have someone who truly cares about her taking her on her daily walks. I trust Craig to take care of my dog and give her the activity level so important to keeping her happy and engaged. She will drop whatever she is doing and be on high alert when his van comes down our street. That speaks volumes about how much she loves her walks, but more importantly, what a good, kind handler Craig is. Dogs always have good "taste" in people!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Boise on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,436 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Boise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Boise. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Boise.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boise. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
