“Took great care of the dogs and sent pictures all the time!”

About: Hello my name is Kaitlin and I am a wife and registered nurse looking to enrich my life and make extra income by taking care of your dogs! I am experienced with all breeds large and small, I have a house with a large fenced in yard. I have dog sat for neighbors as they traveled and am home most days. I walk or run 2-3 miles a day and would love to have a furry friend to join me. I have flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help you out and work with you to create a schedule you are happy with. I live with my Husband who is a veteran. We have two fur babies of our own. I look forward to getting to know you and your dogs, and answer any questions you may have! I am available most days to walk dogs and check on them throughout the day in their own home. I do have two dogs of my own so I won’t be able to board in my home. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I absolutely love dogs and would love to have an animal sanctuary one day.

“Great job! Sent pictures and communication everyday.”

“If I could give Celeste 100 stars I would!! She was so awesome and great with Rocky — I could tell from all of the pictures and videos she sent that they had such a great time and he was in good hands. Celeste was so communicative in letting me know about everything while we were on our trip — I’ll definitely be booking her any time I can for Rocky when we’re gone!”

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!

“Alinda is amazing and we are so grateful for her and all she does for our dear old pug! She is prompt, caring and so very dependable! We love Alinda!”

“Both dogs were very calm when we came home. They seemed very happy to see us but seemed well cared for. Phedre sent us frequent updates and photos.”

About: We go by Gin (Virginia) and Jack (Kandiack), and we’re a husband-and-wife team who share a deep love for animals. We understand that every pet has a unique personality—from confident, social dogs and cats to shy or anxious pets who need extra patience and reassurance. A few years ago, we bought our home and discovered a large population of unaltered feral cats in the neighborhood. We stepped in to have them spayed and neutered, provided food and shelter, and slowly earned their trust. Over time, they became part of our family. That experience deepened our understanding of patience, routine, and the difference consistent, gentle care can make. Our hands-on experience includes: * Caring for shy, anxious, and semi-feral cats. * Building trust at each pet’s pace without forcing interaction. * Maintaining familiar feeding, walking, playtime, and litter box routines. * Offering companionship to pets who feel lonely or stressed. * Administering medications and following special diets and individualized care instructions. Gin is certified in pet first aid and CPR through the American Red Cross. We carry our own insurance and are bonded, and we’re happy to provide additional details upon request. We know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. We take time to learn their routines, preferences, and little quirks so we can help them feel comfortable and secure. Our goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are receiving the same patience, attention, and love we give our own. Pet care is a regular part of our daily routine. I work from home and set my own schedule, giving us flexibility to coordinate visits and stays around your cats’ needs. Together, we plan our availability to provide dependable feeding, medication, playtime, and companionship while keeping your cats’ familiar routines consistent. We’re available for weekday, weekend, and overnight care, with last-minute requests welcome when our schedule allows. We provide attentive care in your home, where your pets can enjoy familiar surroundings and routines. We follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, and each pet’s individual needs. For households with multiple pets, we take time to understand their relationships, separate feeding arrangements, and how each one prefers to receive attention. We build trust patiently, using approved treats or favorite toys without forcing interaction. Our experience with rescue and shy cats has taught us the importance of consistency, gentle care, and respecting each animal’s space. We watch for changes in appetite, behavior, and litter box use, communicate concerns promptly, and share updates and photos. We also take care to prevent escapes, secure doors, and follow your home access instructions. Gin is certified in pet first aid and CPR through the American Red Cross, and we carry our own insurance and are bonded. Your pets’ safety and comfort—and your peace of mind—guide our care.

“Atticus was great with taking care of our cats as well as being agreeable to taking care of non-pet related tasks such as taking out the garbage to the curb and bringing in packages. Atticus was communicative, agreeable to a meet and greet, and stuck to the care schedule. I would book with Atticus in the future and recommend others do the same.”

About: I have one year of pet care experience providing reliable, attentive care for dogs and cats. 🐾 I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, administering medications, and following your pet’s routine. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I love creating a safe, comfortable, and happy environment while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets with patience, kindness, and plenty of love while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. 🐶🐱 I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, which allows me to provide dependable care and give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and bookings while making sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. 🐾 I have a fenced backyard and two dogs of my own, creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets in my home. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely and provide personalized care, attention, and updates to help pets feel happy and secure.

“Sydney was wonderful! Very communicative and helpful! She was great with our cat! She was able to make a last-minute visit work when our original plans fell through and she made sure our cat wasn’t injured when we saw on our camera that the cat had hurt herself when alone.”

About: I've never had a dog myself but I love being around them! I've helped take care of dogs in the family for a few years now! I’m a college student looking to earn some extra side money! That being said I don’t have a completely open schedule but definitely willing to work with you!! I am not offering services that include bringing your pet to my home because I am in circumstances that wouldn't make that very beneficial but I will do everything I can to ensure your babies feel loved!

“Renee went above and beyond on her drop-in visit to check in on our two cats while we were away! Very detail oriented, easy to communicate with, and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with new fur friends. Will definitely book again!”

Sophia B.

“Kaylah was fantastic and so flexible with our changing needs. I really felt like she cared about doing what was best for the dogs, not just checking off a task. She really went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend her!”

Aurora B.

“Cambra was great! Scheduling and coordinating everything was very smooth, and she took the extra time to coax our cat out and make sure he got a little quality time. 10/10 would recommend.”

Alex B.

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.

“I highly recommend Emily, she was great with our pit bull puppy Pearl! Pearl seemed happy and well taken care of. Emily is obviously not only a dog person, but an animal person; our two people shy cats even came out to see her. She will definitely be back to take care of Pearl.”

Monica S.

“First time with Augusta and it was a great experience. She was responsive to messages and was able to accommodate my pets physical needs. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I'm the go-to pet-sitter for people whose friends all have pets. I've been dogsitting consistently in single- and multi-pet households since 2014, establishing a personal, trusted rapport with pets and their families. I've worked with pets young and old, engaging in regular exercise, medication administration, and plenty of belly rubs. I've been the proud owner of pets throughout my life, from a lovable German Shepherd to a spunky Yorkie. And I've watched a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages (senior pets are my current niche), from high-energy Brittanys to homebody New Foundlands, mini- and full-sized doodles, Boston terriers, poodle mixes, bully mixes, and cattle mixes. I live in Boise's Winstead Park neighborhood but have worked with clients in Eagle, Meridian, and Barber Valley — just ask! I'm available for low-risk meet-and-greets with your pets. I'm a remote worker with an active lifestyle (rock climbing, circus arts, etc.), so being away at a job doesn't get in the way of quality pet care. I'm available for sitting 7 days a week on short- and long-term notice, and rarely gone from the home more than a few hours at a time. Message me about additional walk and drop-in availability! I fully believe that keeping pets in your home is the safest, most comfortable option for them while you're away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, caring for pets and plants, bringing in mail, feeding fish, locking doors and gates, and completing other household responsibilities. Responsive communication is a big priority for me, so I respond quickly and check-in regularly with photos, videos, and messages while you're away. My friends, family, or partners are never in your home. Similar to being in the outdoors, I operate with a leave-no-trace attitude. I clean up after myself, wash towels and bedding, and run dishwashers before departure. In most cases, you'll never know I was there, except for a happy pet whose thrilled to see you when you get home. I do not offer pet-sitting or dog-sitting services in my home at this time. ⭐More reviews!⭐ "Skylar was absolutely great and would highly recommend! One of our dogs is doodle who is anxious and shy. Skylar was so patient with him and really took her time getting to know him at his speed, which we greatly appreciated. Skylar was also super prompt, had amazing communication regarding updates on our dogs, and took great care of our house and plants. We will for sure be using her again!" - Taylor M. "Skylar provided excellent house- and dog-sitting services while I was gone for 12 days. She did a great job of keeping me informed throughout my trip, she asked great questions which let me know that she was engaged, and my house was spotless when I returned. My 3 golden retrievers were obviously happy while I was gone (pictures and videos) and when I got home. One of them is a special needs 3-legged tripod. Skylar followed all my instructions to a T, and all of them were very well cared for I will use Skylar’s services again for sure. And I would be happy to recommend her to my best friend. " - Theresa M.

“Meghan was fantastic at taking care of my 3 dogs for two weeks. I am not even sure my dogs missed us all that much! Meghan showed up at the same time for every walk and made sure to give the dogs lots of love each time.”
