About: I’ve grown up having dogs my whole life! After walking and looking after my own dogs, I started getting involved in walking and caring for friends and neighbors dogs since I was 13! I love taking my dog everywhere with me, I enjoy being around all types of dogs and puppies; I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am available from 10-6 Monday thru Saturday, I am in a transition period to my next job opportunity, and I’m here to help out when you need me while I’m searching for my next venture! Schedule will be updated with new hours when I get my next job opportunity! I am currently not offering boarding at this time, but for drop in check in visits I am here to keep your pets happy and looked after while they eagerly await your return!

About: I have walked and boarded dogs for 10 years. I am new to Rover. I love taking dogs for walks and getting them some exercise and enrichment. I work 9-5, with time for walks during lunch, before work, and in the evenings. Weekends can include up to three walks a day, including longer walks. At home, or with clients, dogs get a good watchful eye to ensure they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. With an adventurous pup of my own, I am careful to remove any “escape opportunities”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old, when I bought my own puppy with the money I had saved up. I love dogs with all my heart, currently I do not have a pooch of my own, so I would love to meet yours and help you care for them! I am currently a stay-at-home parent to my 3 children(12, 10, and 7). I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and am wanting to start creating bonds with your pet! I have a somewhat large fully fenced yard, so I am willing to take dogs to my home for a few hours! Currently my cats rule the roost, so I will not let any other animals in my home, but they are welcome in my back yard and I will spend time with them there!

“Arlo loves Ellie! He gets a nice mid day walk and Ellie gives me updates and pictures of their time together. Thanks Ellie!”

About: I work from home, and am able to provide lots of love and attention to your pup! I live in a single family home with a fully fenced yard. Our small poodle mix loves to socialize and play with other dogs. I work from home, so I’m always home! I have availability for multiple daily walks and playtime. I can be flexible with pick up and drop off times. I have a fully fenced back yard. There is also a large park to walk in (leashed) in my neighborhood. I can meet any feeding needs or special instructions.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles for over 15 years. I am familiar with the needs of senior animals and special diet or medication requirements. I am excited to get to care for your pets! I work 2 part time/ PRN positions as a phlebotomist which lets me create my schedule ahead of time, so I will have plenty of availability during the week or weekend to stop in or stay overnight. Pets cared for at your home will feel comfortable in a familiar environment. I will be able to play or take your pet for a walk around your own neighborhood.

About: I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am a responsible and reliable person who understands how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I grew up with animals, including dogs, cats, and a hamster. I currently have two cats, Draco and June! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities, including walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I am patient, attentive, and happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to keep your pet happy and healthy. Whether your pet needs a walk, company while you’re away, or extra care during the day, I will make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my routine. I currently work a 9–5 Monday through Thursday and 9–1 on Fridays, and I have availability on weekends. I’m also able to help with pet care before or after my work hours if needed. I’m happy to coordinate schedules for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, or check-ins to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I try to be flexible and work with owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space and keep the environment clean and calm so pets feel safe in their familiar surroundings. I also pay attention to their behavior and needs to make sure they are happy and well cared for. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands.

About: Hello, my name is Atticus! I worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, have been pet and house sitting for neighbors and friends for over 3 years, actively volunteer at a cat shelter since 2017, and have been walking dogs since I was a kid. I have 5 pets (one dog, three cats, and one snake) of my own, making me well versed in caring for a variety of animals. I work a sporadically scheduled contracted job 1 to 3 Saturdays a month that I'm very committed to. However, these jobs have never gotten in the way of my care towards my own animals and the animals I have pet sat for. I don't pet sit in my own home, as I can't be sure that my animals will 100% get along with a client's animal. I have slept over in guest rooms of the houses I have spent over night in, as well as having only been in the house with the pets during the day, all per the client's request. Whatever one's house looks like or whatever features one's house may have, I am always sure to respect boundaries, clean up after myself, and make sure the house is left looking better than when I arrived.

About: I have always had animals in my life. Cats, dogs, birds. I have cared for small and large breeds. Raised Rottweilers and our latest rescue is a Pitbull Mastiff mix from Boise Bully Breed. I have cared for pets with special needs also enjoy senior pets. I work part time from home with a very flexible schedule, just need a couple hours a week on my laptop. Available for day and night walks. Over nights work for me as well. Our 3 dogs and 1 cat are all very spoiled. The dogs are seniors so their exercise is always age appropriate. When we have foster pups they all step up for quiet play. Whenever I care for others pets I always want to specialize the care for what works best for the animal. I know my own pets are use to their routines and I think it's important to maintain those as pets can often get anxious when moms and dads are gone.

About: I have had three medium breeds and one small breed throughout my life. I have helped feed, walk, and play with all of them often. I am currently a college student with weekends, and a good amount of time during the week open. Saturday-Tuesday is preferable, other days are negotiable. I care for pets with compassion and patience. I give them as much love and attention as they ask for and respect their needs and space.

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.

“She was so punctual, communicative and my pup loved her! So glad to have someone in the neighborhood for walks! Thank you 😊”

About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. When I was a kid I used to be told not to pet certain animals because they were deemed “unfriendly”, most of them time people were shocked when their animal would warm up to me after making such a statement. Animals are much more intelligent and empathetic than some people give them credit for. Give me a choice between a room full of humans or a room full of animals, and I’ll take the room full of animals every time. I started pet setting when I was 12 and I’ve been doing it on and off ever since. I used to have a dog, sadly he passed from heart failure and I’ve just barely gotten to the point where I’m thinking about getting another. I miss his energy and miss taking him on hikes and long walks. Getting up early is not a problem for me. I live right by the greenbelt so we will be going on lots of walks! At the moment my schedule is very open. I have 2 cats who love dogs, but I know not all dogs love cats. I am more than willing to come over and dog sit and even bring you pup In during the times I’m there as long as your pup likes cats, otherwise me walking your pup and boarding at your house would be better suited for all parties involved.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, we always had two dogs at home, and I took pride in being the one to care for them. Daily walks—at least three times a day—became part of my routine, along with regular trips to the dog park. Over the years, I’ve trained my dogs to do their business outside and to interact well with other dogs and people. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Now, I have my own dog, whom I rescued three years ago, and he’s truly a joy. He’s incredibly sociable and loves being around other dogs. It would make me so happy for him to have some company every now and then! I work from home, which allows me to dedicate to caring for dogs. I’m also free on weekends, making it the perfect time for pet sitting. I truly love taking care of them! I treat all dogs with a lot of love and patience. I try to give them the best care. it's very important to give them love and care.

About: I have over 10 years of experience as an emergency vet tech. In addition to that have been a caring pet owner all of my adult life. Since becoming a human physical therapist I also got certified in canine physical therapy. We recently moved to Boise and I am currently working part time. I have time in the early morning and midday for longer walks and drop in visits. I love walking/light jogging. Seeing a dog enjoying a walk makes me so happy! Reducing a pets stress when their owner is out of town is important!

“Kalli has very clear communication skills and is very timely. She was very kind with my special needs dog. I would definitely book with her again!”
