Dog Sitting Coeur d'Alene

About: Hi! I’m Crystal, a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. As a proud pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for your furry family members. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of pet behavior, my gentle approach to training puppies, and my specialized care for senior pets. I’m experienced in administering medications, managing mobility issues, and creating a calm, nurturing environment for older animals. I also work with pets who have anxiety or special needs, using positive reinforcement and patience to help them feel safe and loved. Whether it’s daily dog walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m based in Price, Utah, and serve the surrounding areas. I’m fully insured, background-checked, and committed to keeping your pets safe, happy, and loved. Let’s connect—I’d love to meet your pets and become their new favorite human! With over 15 years of experience, pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. Mornings begin with walks and feedings, followed by midday drop-in visits and playtime. Afternoons are reserved for second walks, pet taxi services, and prepping for overnight stays. Evenings wrap up with final check-ins and pet updates. Weekly tasks include restocking supplies, scheduling meet-and-greets, and updating care plans to ensure every pet receives loving, personalized attention. Our pets are our family, and I enjoy every minute of caring for them. I strive to create a safe, loving, and structured environment for the pets in my care, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting theirs. In my home, I make sure pets are comfortable and secure by pet-proofing the space, providing cozy bedding, and offering plenty of toys and enrichment activities. I follow each pet’s specific feeding schedule, ensure fresh water is always available, and give them daily walks, playtime, and affection. I’m attentive to their health and behavior, and I administer medications when needed, always keeping a calm, nurturing atmosphere. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the utmost respect and professionalism. I follow detailed care instructions, maintain cleanliness, and send regular updates with photos and notes so owners feel confident and reassured. My services include feeding, walking, administering medications, and light household tasks like collecting mail or watering plants if requested. I’m vigilant about safety, locking doors, monitoring pets closely, and keeping emergency contacts and vet information readily available. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for, regardless of their location.

“I felt very confident leaving Rose in charge of my cat. She seemed to really care about her job and my pet. Rose had good rapport with my cat and is the kind of person that would go out of her way to do her best.”

About: Raised around show dogs, with 30 years hands‑on training experience. Professional educator/teacher. Loving, dog‑only care—walks, enrichment, adventures, or calm indoor comfort, individually tailored. Huge Heart. My aunt raised dogs for show in US and Canada - and she was an emergency vet tech. I helped her with her doggies all my growing up years and learned a lot. Working on getting certified in doggy training. Have human BLS (basic Life Support for medical professionals) but also know doggy CPR and basic medical-can give shots and meds. I just have a huge heart and love to love on the doggies. Sitting same rate as boarding and sometimes easier on the doggies. I just want them to have their routines, pets, loves, favorites (if it's a walk or snuggles) - just be as anxiety free, loved on, and happy as possible while you are away. Currently my schedule is very open for all work. If this does not fill the schedule, will need to adjust around other work. But this is my current priority. If other work is needed, pets still come first and receive 150% love, care, and attention. My doggy is on the rainbow bridge. It is just me in the home. I follow the owners rules and wishes. I want to keep to their training and routines. I don't want the owner coming home to a doggy with bad habits or upset tummy. I want to keep the same diet and structure. I'm a professional, certified teacher and past hospital worker. Absolutely love to love on doggies. I have over 50 five-star reviews on airbnb and lots of other references and letters of reference I can provide you.

“Andrea is clearly a caring animal lover, and it shows! She communicates very well and I can rest assured knowing my dog is in good hands and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Andrea for anyone who wants their animal to be loved while they are away”

About: I've worked with many breeds of dogs. Mostly small to mid-size dogs with a variety of traits. Mostly working dogs namely Blue Heelers & Huskys. I tend to live an active lifestyle and that means hiking/walking/and lots of exercise. Rest assured both me and your pooch will be getting a good workout! In the past I've facilitated overnight lodging for dogs, and temporary stays of up to a few days. Be noted I do not currently have a large open or fenced in yard. I work with neighbors and friends pets on quite a regular basis! I regularly feed, train, walk & care for pets when away or on business! I work from home so this environment provides a perfect spot for pets to be nurtured & played with consistently! I always check prior to booking any special exercise and or dietary needs of your pet. Ensuring door remain locked when inside and timer's are set for when pets receive food upon client preference. Safety is of the upmost priority, so I will discuss a full plan and schedule so you know where you pup is and his progress while away. I will send regular check in photos to provide accountability for myself and the clients well being.

“Tayla did a wonderful job watching our sweet Bentley! She sent pictures and communicated daily which really helped us not miss him so much! Thank you Tayla for taking such great care of our family!”

About: Hello! I've taken care of dogs for a good chunk of my life. I had four who were all different breeds, sizes, and ages. They all had different medical needs as they became older such as thyroid, hip dysplasia, hearing, and more. I have taken care of dogs with special medical needs/medications. Some include cushings, blindness, digestive sensitivity, and more. In those cases, I had to walk them in specific ways or administer medication. However, I always ask pet parents how they give their pets-medications for the utmost accuracy and comfort of the pet. I'm currently working full-time (Mon-Fri from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM). My free days are Saturday and Sunday but will eventually be open as I am moving in June. I am looking for something fulfilling to do on my days off that I can enjoy. My cat is fully indoors with a specific diet due to digestive problems requiring gland expression regularly. She has auto-feeders to prevent overfeeding/overeating and I only feed her kibble with natural ingredients. Her wet food heavily focuses on keeping her digestion flowing smoothly and I clean her litterbox immediately after she's used it to prevent infections. When caring for a client's baby, I like to get detailed descriptions of the pet, feeding, sleeping, and behavior to provide accurate and 5-star care. By doing this, I can report anything strange or note down something I've noticed. My job is to keep their animal healthy and happy. I am fine picking up any messes in the home if an animal is prone to accidents as I am a housekeeper, light cleanup and the like are things that I'm willing do to.

“Emilyanne is the best. This is our second time using her, this time just for a drop in since we had back to back events on Saturday and didn't want to leave the girls that long without a potty break and some love. Emilyanne noticed I forgot to put a salad dressing back in the fridge and took care of that and started my dishwasher for me. It is the small things that are so huge that she does even just during a drop in. Plus I know my girls love her so much and it gives me peace of mind. I can't say enough good things about Emilyanne and her communication, knowledge, promptness, and ability to trust her 100%.”

About: Hi I'm Lily! I've taken care of my own two dogs and cat for a few years now. Whenever my parents are gone for a few weeks I look after them and love taking care of them! I do work about 4-5 days out of the week but I'm willing to wake up bright and early to take care of any pet duties that you may need me to, such as walking or playing in a park or giving them special meals when needed and lots and lots of pets! I often treat pets as more then just pets they are our loved ones and our best friends. I take care of other people's pets just as I would mine with lots of love!

About: I have been raising and training different dog breeds for most of my life. All of my adult life. Slowly making it into a career. I work from home as a music engineer with plenty of free time for the dogs. Typically hitting the local park at least twice a day. I focus on and training to keep your dog relaxed and free from anxiety. Plenty of toys and lots of outdoor time tend to do the trick.

About: I have been providing high-quality, reliable pet care to clients throughout the Coeur d’Alene area and am now expanding my services to reach more pet families. As a dedicated pet owner myself caring for a senior dog, I understand the importance of personalized, attentive care and am highly flexible in accommodating your pet’s unique needs and routines. I'm available on weekday evenings, and most weekends with at least 7 days’ notice. I offer flexible scheduling, including overnight care, and recommend a meet-and-greet in advance to ensure the perfect fit for your pet's needs. Pet care is provided exclusively in your home, serving Coeur d’Alene and surrounding areas. Services include, but are not limited to, administering medication, regular walks, and overnight care. Each visit is tailored to meet the specific needs of your pet in the comfort of their own environment.

About: I have years of experience with horses, dogs, and cats. I have always had pets growing up, from small mutts to large high drive German Shepherds (currently have them!). I have knowledge of most breeds and their traits, which I believe helps you understand the pet itself. I have worked as an equine veterinary technician before for 2 years, which has exposed me to many different types of pets, big and small! I currently am self employed and run my own business. I enjoy going on walks and figured why not get a new buddy to go with me! I love animals and would much prefer hanging out with your cat, or dog than anything else really. I'll alway make time to pet that dog! (or cat, we don't play favorites. But we all know cats decide when they want to be pet. ;) ) I always put safety and comfort first. I follow each pet’s routine so they feel at ease, make sure they have fresh food and water, and keep their space calm and secure. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with love, patience, and attention.

“Angelina was very professional, and her personality is great. She cares about the animals and took great care of my cat and was very prompt. I will be calling her again to come take care of my kiddo.”

About: For the past 15 years we’ve had 2-3 dogs and truly believe our dogs are a part of our family. Currently we have a 2 year old Aussiedoodle and we have two kids who love to play with dogs but also understand when a dog needs his or her space. We do allow dogs on the couch and have plenty of room for a dog bed if provided. I’ve had pets all my life and understand how important it is to have someone watching them who will treat them love and respect. I’m currently a stay at home mom and my husband works from home. While we have daily chores and errands we run everything is adjustable to fit your dogs needs. I’m rarely gone more then 2 hours at a time and there will usually always be someone home in my absence. Dogs are welcome to come in and out of our home via a doggie door and have full access to our large backyard. We recently moved and the yard is even bigger and better than before! If you require walks or even trips to the dog park we can definitely accommodate that. We do allow dogs on the couch and we have gates set up to keep dogs on our main level giving us the ability to keep a close watch on them. Note: For puppies under 1 or dogs with chewing tendencies or destructive separation anxiety we may require a crate. We do have one extra available and can definitely discuss further at the meet and greet. I’m currently a stay at home Mom so my schedule is flexible. I’m able to be home as much as needed and rarely leave for extended periods of time. My husband works from home so there will most likely always be someone around. In addition to our one dog we can board up to three additional dogs at one time. I will do my best to keep you updated and informed if there will be any additional dogs in the house at the time of your pets visit but I do quite often receive last minute request. Drop off/pick up times between 7:00 AM - 10:30 PM, any request outside these times may require an additional night to be booked. We recently moved into our new home which is larger then the old one with TONS of space for the dogs, a covered patio to relax under and a fully fenced in yard. We plan to install a doggie door as soon as possible so dogs can have free access in and out of the house. While rare to have more the. 3 additional dogs in the house we will occasionally take up to 5 additional dogs at one time. While we do our absolute best to monitor the dogs 24/7 they are dogs and can be unpredictable, we do our best to maintain a safe environment for all dogs and will inform you of any issues that arise.
