“Very happy with how well our pup was cared for in our absence. Shachel was very accommodating and flexible with our needs and was responsive to our texts during our time away. We were so grateful to have found her and will definitely book again. Thank you!!”

“Cailee was absolutely awesome. She took great care of our precious Hoodie. Dependable, knows dogs and very patient with him as he is older and slowing down. I would recommend Cailee to anybody as she was right on time and did a great job. Thanks again for providing a great service.”

“Kathleen was fantastic with our little girl (Tipsy) and we would highly recommend her to watch your dog(s). She provided daycare in our VRBO while we were out enjoying all Coeur d' Alene has to offer and came home to a happy dog every night. Will definitely use her again when we return!!”

“Livvi was wonderful! This is the first time we left our pups with someone other than family and Livvi was absolutely amazing. Sent us pictures and updates daily, our dogs are happy and had a great time. Highly recommend!! Thank you!”

“Monica was booked for housesitting and watching my dog for three days. She did great and was very attentive with my dog Diego. I would definitely recommend her if you need a house sitter and somebody to watch your pets. She is very trustworthy. I will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I’ve been passionate about caring for animals my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or just some quiet cuddle time, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for senior dogs with special needs, so I’m confident handling medications, special diets, and unique routines. Your pet will be treated like family with me! I am currently available most days of the week to take care of your furry friends I only can’t work on Tuesday's but can be flexible to rearrange my schedule if given enough time. I currently have only a very spoiled indoor bunny at my house so boarding at my house is unavailable but I am totally going to show you pictures of him. But I am the pet sitter for my family and friends so I’m use to the change of environments. So if your pet has cute quirks and unique schedule don’t worry I am totally on board. I understand having someone new enter your families environment is super hard but I am here to keep your furry friends safe and do things at your pace.
“Christy did amazing job, my dog was cared for and loved while I was gone. I have camera's in my house and every time I checked in they were cuddling or he was getting attention. My house was left very clean and was exactly how i left it. I would highly recommend her and feel very comfortable using her again.”

“Laura is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had for Murphy. A week before we had a horrific experience with another Rover we booked for a last minute trip, and we just prayed Laura was as great as she seemed during our meet and greets. She exceeded all expectations. She was extremely communicative and sent frequent updates everyday. We never once had to worry about the safety or wellbeing of Murphy. She was incredibly caring and intuitive when it came to caring for him. Murphy is extremely affectionate and requires lots of cuddles and attention, and Laura never failed to deliver. We could tell he was well loved while we were gone for 2 1/2 weeks. This is the longest we have been away from our boy and I am so grateful that we found an angel like Laura. She also took care of our house and it looked impeccable when we returned. Thank you so very much! Laura will be our number one choice for any future services.”
“Crystal was great with our pups! She calmed a very anxious Ruby and I could tell when we got home that the dogs really like her. She sent us a couple of pictures throughout the evening and that helped me ;>)). I felt confident in the care of our dogs and our home. We will definitely be asking Crystal to pup-sit again and highly recommend her!”

“Bella did a great job with our two older dogs. One can be hard to crack his shell, and they were buddies by the end of their time. She sent plenty of pictures and is a good communicator. She left our house clean. All of it was very much appreciated!”
“Angelina took good care of our girls. They were very happy puppies when we returned. They even looked for her for a couple days after we returned. She also looked after our chinchillas and snake and took good care of them all. Will ask her to watch them all again!”

“#1 Gabby and Kade toke such good care of our doggie! They sent me updates and pictures throughout the day of Maggie and their care of her. They communicated with us so well and made us feel totally comfortable knowing our doggie was still living her best life :) #2 They toke such good care of our home. They went over and above and watered my flowers and left the home just like we left it. Everything washed and put away. So nice. Highly recommend Gabby and Kade!”

“Arlene did a fantastic job house/pet sitting while we went on vacation. She gave frequent updates on the animals and gave them lots a attention. I would highly recommend her service and will definitely use her in the future!”

About: Hello! We are looking to help people out in our free time with pet care. Please let us know a few times you are available for a meet and greet before hand to ensure it is a good fit! We have two cats and one dog; and between the two of us have many years of experience with cats, puppies and senior dogs. We will be on time, provide lots of photos while you are away, and be certain to follow your instructions exactly as written. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! Between the two of us, we are very flexible. Our only routine is walking our dog in the morning and evening, and feeding our animals twice per day. We have a fenced backyard, and let our pets go out when they want, but mostly they stay inside. We take our dog on two walks daily. We will follow whatever direction you have. Because of our cats, we can only accept small dogs into our home for boarding, but can go to your home as needed.

This was out first time hiring Kathleen to take care of our pups overnight! She was absolutely fabulous, followed their routine, send us pictures and even play with them more than we usually do. Very thoughtful person, she knows what she is doing. 5 stars for taking care of them and also 5 stars for communication. We will definitely have Kathleen back.
