Dog Walkers in Boise Hills Village, ID

About: I’ve owned cats or dogs pretty much my entire life. Currently, I own a border collie mix and love spending time with her. I love getting to know other animals and have dog/cat sitting experience with neighbor's pets also. Currently, I’m working as an on call wildland firefighter that should get going here in about the next few months or so. I’m pretty much always available, unless I will be on a fire. I love interacting and getting to know pets in general. I also prioritize communication with the owners to keep them informed of what is going on.

“I was so worried about transitioning from Daycare to leaving my pup home all day and having Laramie has been so great. She made it super easy to set up the visits and always sends a photo or two so I know how he is doing during the day. She’s gives him his treat before he goes so he has something to do to keep him busy for a little longer which helps me feel better about the day alone. He’s been doing great with the transition and seems happy being home which is great!”

“Anastasia walked Miso for a month and it was a big help. She is sweet and gentle, and my dog Miso enjoyed the fun walks with her. He would ran to greet her every morning! Thanks Anastasia!”

About: - Experience caring for many different animals (dogs, cats, farm animals, etc) - Knowledge in senior and disabled animal care - Experience handling/giving needed supplements and medications I am currently a full time student at OSU but I do have a pretty flexible schedule and would love to provide any pet care needed (if available)! Throughout the week the only days I’m usually fully unavailable are Mon & Tue but feel free to message me either way, if needed! I’d love to discuss and/or meet to see how I can offer you the best pet care possible! I offer pet care both within my own home and at your own. I typically prefer pet sitting for longer periods of time to be done in the employer’s home as it ensures more comfort and safety for your pet. But feel free to message me to discuss any care details/needs! Additionally, I do also offer the service of walking you pet and drop in visits (more availability in these)!!

“Sarah is great with my dog Barry! She got him to go more than half a mile on walks, fed, and took him out for bathroom breaks for when I scheduled her to! I will for sure rebook her until she’s unavailable. Thanks again Sarah!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life and have been fostering with the humane society for many years. I currently have an golden of my own and we love to explore new areas in the foothills, around the greenbelt, or even the beautiful sights up bogus. I usually pet sit for family friends, but would love to meet some new floofs! I'm currently working part time, and have a pretty open schedule for this summer! Every week is different, but I'm available almost every weekday and most weekends. My backyard is secure and big dog approved with plenty of room to run around. There is a toy basket inside, but somehow the whole yard gets transformed into a dog toy wonderland. As for any homes that I may visit, I will ensure everything is how I found it and will give your pet all the attention they need without overstepping their boundaries.

“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: Hi, we’re a family of 5 in the lower Highlands area. Sadly, we lost our family dog, Friday, last year. He was a high energy husky mix. We miss him. However, we aren’t ready to commit to adopting another dog just yet. We’d love to watch yours though. We are right across from Harrison hollow and we’re an active, outdoor family. We have three kids: 8, 7, 5 years old. We’ll take great care of your pooch. My husband and I both work from home & love to get out on walks during the day. I love to go on long walks in the neighborhood or on a nearby trail. We have a back yard that is fenced in & room to run around in the back. We live close to walking trails and the foothills where we will take your dog on walks.

“Crystal was amazing! She took great care of our dog, always showed up on time and we would highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! My name is Brooke and I have petsitted for people for almost 20 years. I love animals of all sorts of shapes and sizes. I hope you'll consider me for watching your babies and here is why. I've administered shots and medicine and up until 2 years ago I had pets of my own. I lost my heart dog Murphy on NYE of 22 in surgery, got diagnosed with Cervical cancer myself that March, mid-April had a radical hysterectomy. A week before my birthday that year I also lost my cat to a dog or coyote attack. Murphy(dog) was 10, Velcro(cat) was 15 and my lil shadow. I lost all that is light and love that year. I cannot have kids, and I dearly miss my fur babies nothing will ever replace them but I do have a big heart. I am tired of going home to an empty house. I want someone to argue over the last bite with and whether or not cheese really is a dessert. I am ready to get another dog, but first savings!!! I've always had savings for myself and my animals because life can go sideways. So that's why I'm here! I'm currently working two part time jobs to help pay the bills and what I get here will go straight to savings so I am properly prepared to get a pup of my own. I would love nothing more to love on your animals while I prepare for my own. And possible into the future as well. I am currently only available for overnight petsitting at your home I am working 2 part time jobs and gone for about 8 hrs a day for said jobs except maybe one day a week. Your animal is my main priority! I chill with them and follow th parameters paid out for me. And hang with them for the agreed upon timeframes

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 everything from high-energy pups to wise old senior dogs, as well as plenty of cats and occasionally other small animals. From energizing dog walks to cozy cat visits, overnight companionship to reliable drop-in services, I'll handle life's logistics so you can savor life's moments. Consider me your trusted ally who is dedicated to enriching your pet's daily experience while simplifying yours. I’m comfortable with pups of all ages and 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, play time, 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.

“Stephani did a great job communicating when she would pick Lily up and sending photos of her walk. We plan to use her again next time we are out of town!”

About: I am a current medical student with a little bit of free time and have had a dog myself for over 12 years. Since I don’t get to live with a dog currently, I really miss it. I am a certified cuddler and simply want to give some love to your furry best friend! :) Taking care of your loving four-legged companion is not a chore to me at all. It is the best way I would fill in my free time! I am going to make sure that your friend is always full of joy and excitement throughout their time hanging out with me! I try my best to take them to parks and on long walks so they can experience many adventures!

“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.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for 9 years. I have also pet sat for friends and family for about 8 years which has included walking, bathing, house sitting, and general care. Typically I am free whenever you need me! I usually do 1-2 drop in’s per day if my clients are out of town, but I can always do more if requested! I do not have my own place at the moment so I am not able to board pets but I will be respectful of clients homes and am willing to do whatever it is that you need!
