“Donovan was very punctual and communicative! I loved getting pictures throughout our stay. He was very respectful of our home. I would use him again :)”
“Mark is the best dog sitter ever! Book with him! We love being able to leave our pup at home where he is comfortable, knowing that he is having just as much fun hanging out with Mark as we are having on vacation. This is not our first time booking with Mark and is definitely not the last!”
“Liz was available on short notice and took great care of my dog Nova! I got lots of picture updates and had a happy dog when I returned home. I would definitely recommend her and ask her to watch Nova again in the future.”

“Xavier was great with our girls. He took them each for walks, played outside with them, and took them for trips to the dog park while we were away for the weekend. There were constant updates & great communication. Our girls loved their time with him.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Kellan! He took care of our home and pets while we were out of the country for a week. The peace of mind that Kellan brought us while we were traveling was absolutely invaluable. We wouldn’t consider having anyone else watch over our lives while we’re gone. He sent us photos of our pets, took care of everything from getting the mail to making sure everyone was fed and cared for and left our home in impeccable condition. Thank you, Kellan!”
“We just worked with Phedre for the first time and she jumped right in with professionalism, patience and attention! We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely use her again!”

“My dog loves Michael! She saw him today and was so excited. Cried when he left! He took perfect care of Bonnie, my plants and my condo for 16 days. He is a great pet sitter!”
“We cannot recommend Shannon enough for you pet sitting needs! She was so absolutely wonderful and nurturing to our two pups! Right from the meet and greet appointment, Shannon was so friendly and has such a calming presence that we felt confident they would be in good hands. She provided regular updates and photos, asked excellent questions before the trip to make sure she really understood our dogs’ routines and personalities, which really showed an added level of care and one of our dogs is older and Shannon did an excellent job getting him to take his medicines. We came home to a very tidy house, well-cared for pups and filled with appreciation for Shannon and all the things she did to that really went the extra mile. This was our first experience with Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased! Can’t wait to book Shannon for our future petsitting needs! ❤️”
About: Hi there, fellow dog lover! 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 and plenty of cats, and occasionally horses, and small animals too! I grew up around Saint Bernards, so I’ve been wrangling big dogs since I could walk. Our house was kind of a magnet for animals in need....strays, rescues, you name it. We never turned them away and either kept them or helped find them forever homes with family and friends. That experience shaped how I care for animals today...patient, flexible, and with a lot of heart. 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. Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, 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'm a hiker, mountain biker, and love long walks! 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.

Would highly, highly recommend!!!!”
