Dog Sitting Garden City

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.

About: I have experience caring for all kinds of small and big animals, including pets, farm animals, and even wild animals with conservation organizations. I love learning all the details of what constitutes the best care for each animal! I'm pretty good at basic training with dogs and puppies, and even kitties!! I give kitty and doggy massage and (reiki) energy, animals can feel our energy for sure! Sometimes I can intuitively pick up on little changes that could really help them. I'm a self-employed entrepreneur. I teach some yoga therapy clients, and have art healing sessions at different times throughout the week. These are short sessions, so I would only be away from the pet-sit house for a few hours, and planned ahead of time, but also able to be flexible as needed. I'm able to accommodate morning, midday, or evening times for all care needs. Occasionally I'm able to take a pet-sit dog on a walk with a walk client if everyone gets along, which I'm pretty good at facilitating actually, but I always ask first, and never push for it. I like to really check in with each animal and give them plenty of specialized attention. Especially at first, it takes a little time for them to build trust with a new person! I also like to keep to the routines that they expect. My cat gets treats upon waking, and before we go to bed, she likes the consistency. She likes variation in play-time and exploration, and I aim to help her build confidence in approaching new situations, she has been an amazing adventure cat and companion! I learn each pets favorite spot to chill, and when they do and don't want attention. I listen for, and learn their cues, and communication.

“Morgan was excellent in taking care of our bashful cat. Seeing pictures of the two of them getting along so splendidly made us relax and enjoy our vacation even more!”

“Adrianna was very responsive, professional, and caring. Adrianna provided excellent care of my dog at a great value. I would highly recommend Adrianna to care for your furry family members!”

Maureen D.

“Nicole is amazing and took such great care of my boys while I was gone. I had a family emergency while I was gone and she was both flexible and compassionate with the situation and was able to extend and continue to care for the boys. She’s a true professional and was able to get my shy boys to come out of their shells and play with her. Couldn’t recommend her more and will book her every time I’m out of town.”

Courtney C.

“Caitlynn went above and beyond when watching my cats this time around. She watered my plants, cleaned up messes, and took the garbage cans to the curb. When she watches my cats, I know that they receive the love and attention that they deserve. Highly recommend!!”

Erin S.

“Kristi is always great! She did daily drop-ins to give meds to my cat while I was in the mountains, and helped out with my other cat. She even worked around the pet sitter who was house sitting. I loved receiving all the photos from each day when I reentered cell range. It was such a great feeling.”

Jaime B.

“Sara was exceptional in caring for my two whippets during my ski trip to Bogus. She arrived right on time for their dinner, followed all instructions perfectly, and provided detailed updates throughout her visit. Her genuine care for my dogs and professionalism make her my go-to pet sitter. Highly recommended!”

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.

About: Just a girl looking to spend time with some cute dogs and earn a little extra cash, love to spend free time taking care of dogs and making their day enjoyable, willing to learn / accommodate any specific needs for any animal. Sightseeing available upon request. Would love to get to know all the things your pet likes and dislikes to make their time spent a good one. All dogs of all ages welcome, experience with puppies with loads of energy and many dogs that may be older and slower. No matter the size big or small each adventure will be fit to your own dogs needs and wants. I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones in the near future, thank you I’m currently working and my schedule varies so I’m mostly available for drop in/walks throughout the week and more available for overnight stays over the weekends but I’m open to what you may need. I currently share an apartment with two cats that are only comfortable with each other so I’m unfortunately unable to bring any cats in for an overnight stay but can go to you instead. They don’t have much experience with dogs but if yours is friendly we can work something out.

“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.”

Kelsey B.

“Jordan did a fantastic job with our drop in visits! She arrived on time and made sure our pups had ample play time. She provided photos and a summary after each visit. Highly recommend!”

Kristin C.

“This is our first time hiring Crystal. Feeding our cats is kind of crazy/complicated. However Crystal did a great job with that and everything else. Sent texts and pics each day. We will definitely hire her in the future.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with two sweet pups, Maggie and Milly, and that’s where my passion for pet care began. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs, each with their own personality and needs. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or older and needs a gentler approach, I bring patience, reliability, and genuine love to every visit. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family! I work from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. with a lunch break around 2 p.m., which gives me flexibility to incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m happy to adjust my schedule as needed to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. While I’m not able to offer pet sitting in my apartment, I’m more than happy to come to your home to care for your beloved pet. Whether it’s staying overnight or dropping in for walks, playtime, or feeding during the day, I’ll make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was young and have pet sat for friends neighbors and family members. Along with pet sitting I have 2 pooches of my own one of which requires some extra special care. I have experience taking care of pets of all ages and sizes, my experience does not stop at dogs as I have taken care of cats, lizards, and chickens as well. I am a full time student with availability at the beginning and end of each day and some here and there in the middle, I also work full time on the weekends but make sure to stop in on pooches during my breaks, overnight, or before and after work to give them the attention they so deserve! As a pet owner we want only the best for our pets, as a pet sitter we want to keep your pets in their most comfortable and safe space your home! Keeping them happy and healthy and respecting your ways of keeping them whether that be crates to keep them away from mischief or free roaming as the ruler of their space. The goal is to keep them comfortable and stress free with ample amounts of love and attention.

“absolutely fantastic! she was always on time and never failed to send updates (especially funny pictures of the babies)! 10/10 will definitely use her every single time we leave town and have to leave the pups at home”

Amanda W.

“A great experience having Dusti come and check up on my pet! I enjoyed the pictures during the check in for me enjoy while at work!”

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.

About: Dogs love me. Owners trust me. I've spent years caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from bouncy, bitey puppies to gentle seniors who just want a cozy spot and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable managing a full household, having cared for up to four dogs at once, and I understand that every dog in the group has their own personality, needs, and quirks. As a walker, I stay alert and present, watching for other dogs, wildlife, traffic, and anything that might spook or excite your pup, so walks stay safe and enjoyable from start to finish. I've personally been a "dog mom" to two or more dogs at a time for years, so I don't just work with dogs, I live the daily rhythm of caring for them: the routines, the cuddles, the slobbery ball fetching. Above all, my goal is simple: your dog should feel safe, happy, and genuinely loved every moment they're in my care. And yes, if we're being honest, I probably like dogs more than most people. They're better listeners. I work full time as a flexible hybrid worker. This means I am available (and eager!) to pop out as needed. I'm often available 24/7 on weekends and can easily plan around your pets' needs, because that's what I'd want for my own pets. I do not offer pet care in my home, but when it comes to clients’ homes my mantra is the same as it is when venturing into the great outdoors — leave it better than you found it.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, and I would love to take care of yours! I live in a quiet single family neighborhood with a fenced in backyard. We live walking distance to a HUGE park, that generally becomes an off-leash park in the evenings. When I’m taking care of your pet I’ll be treating them as one of my own. That means lots of pets, snuggles, walks and playtime! Before a long stay booking I’ll ask for us to meet in a common area such as a park so we can have a proper introduction and go over all your pet’s needs and daily routine. I have two senior dogs, so when it comes to watching your senior pet I have lots of experience and patience. I look forward to meeting and taking care of your fur baby(s) ! My current schedule is extremely flexible, minus a few out of state trips. I can be there when you need me, and generally I’m available for last minute bookings. I have a fenced in yard, and 2 V good boys. I also live in a super quiet neighborhood with a nice park down the street to play in or walk around if your dog can’t be off leash.
