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.
“Livvi did a great job watching my pups! After a string of terrible rover sitter experiences, I was very nervous about having another sitter come over to watch my boys. She communicated very well, followed instructions, and gave my pups plenty of attention! She was very professional and asked all the right questions during the meet and greet. It’s clear that really enjoys her job and takes it seriously. I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
About: Dogs have so much personality. Ive always enjoyed the enthusiasm they exhibit whenever I show up at their place of residence. It’s fun to toss a ball, frisbee, or whatever their toy of choice is. And taking them out for walks around their neighborhood is always a refreshing experience. They get their exercise and so do I. I’m self employed as a freelance landscaper and take on other odd jobs as needed so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do my best to adjust to the needs of the clients who have hired me in the past. I prefer coming to the clients place to care for their pets as it’s an environment that’s already familiar to the animals and I’m always preoccupied with the comfort of the pets I’m looking after. Plus they have the set routines they are used to and it’s far easier to implement a routine on familiar ground for the animals.
“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!!”


About: I lived on a small farm growing up and fell in love with animals. I took 4H when I was little putting rabbits in the fair. One thing to know about 4H Rabbits is at the Fair is that they are the tamest rabbit there, because of the time and love we give the rabbits. At the fair we got the opportunity to present the open class rabbits to the judges since we where train to handle them. I also worked with our family dog, (a collie at the time), on training him for 4H. Since them, in my teenage years, I bread and hand raise parkettes. I sold them to people once they where old enough to leave there moms. I know have two dogs I rescued, and a cat. I am always walking my dogs come rain, snow. Or sunshine. If you find yourself unable to walk your dogs because of work or weather, I am more then willing to walk them for you. Just give me a shout! I have three friendly dogs and a cat to keep your dogs, or cat company. I always leash the pets up before we go out for walks or whatever to keep them safe.
“Cheyenne was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Sven. This was my first time ever using a sitter outside of my family, so I was a bit hesitant—but she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Sven is a Belgian Malinois protection/working dog with high drive and strong awareness, and Cheyenne handled him with confidence, patience, and real attentiveness. That’s not something I trust easily, and she exceeded expectations. She provided regular updates with messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It was clear he was getting proper exercise, structure, and care the entire time. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for, always the best sign. Cheyenne provided excellent in house care, is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her—especially if you have a high-drive or working dog/puppy”

“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!”
About: Raised around show dogs, with 15 years hands‑on training experience. Professional educator offering loving, dog‑only care—walks, enrichment, adventures, or calm indoor comfort, individually tailored. Huge Heart. 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.
“We had a fairly last minute request for Gabby and Kade to watch our pets for a few days. It can be hard to find house sitting for a large number of cats and dogs in our area and they came through for us. It was a short booking but both of them were super communicative and it was clear from the photos they sent and how the cats and dogs were relaxed when they came home that our pets loved Gabby and Kade's company. As an added bonus, they left the home cleaner than they found it. I'm super ecstatic that we came across such a great duo and am looking forward to future bookings with them as well!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of any kind since I was sixteen working at a doggy daycare and grooming service let me take care of your babies today! I have just moved to Ponderay and am excited to show my skill! I've been in pet care since I was sixteen including dog grooming I treat every dog like my best friend I treat any animal as if they were my own;giving them love and all the attention they would need not to mention play time outside
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.

“Abby was amazing!! We contacted her last minute to dog and house sit over Labor Day weekend and she was able to accommodate. From the meet and greet we knew she was the right person to care for our dogs and our home. Great communication during our trip, and lots of pictures and cute videos of the dogs. They absolutely loved her!! I can’t say enough about Abby’s kind and caring nature. She’ll be our “go to” sitter in the future!!”

“I ended up having a family emergency and found Emilyanne last minute. She was flexible and came for the meet and greet with my dad the next day and watched my 2 elderly, large breed dogs the following day. She was very thorough, took great care of my girls, exercised them everyday, updated me with photos multiple times daily and took great care of my house. I came home to a spotless house, clean fridge, a poop scooped yard and laundry done. I would highly recommend Emilyanne and would use her again for future dog sits.”

About: I’ve lived on a farm my whole life. We mainly have Angora goats, chickens, ducks, and guardian dogs. However, we’ve also had the occasional sheep, dairy goat, guinea hen and even a llama. In the house we have a Vizsla, four cats, and salt water fish. In the past I have also had a gecko and a hedgehog. I am available from 11am to 2pm and after 5pm. My weekend availability varies as I have tournaments most weekends, but I am usually available all day on Sundays. I also am available full time during holiday breaks. I do not offer care at my house because I don’t want to risk any problems with my pets, but I am happy to come to your house or take your pets for walks!
About: I’ve cared for seniors and disabled humans. All my pets have been rescues including dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits. Current work is with purebreds (not exclusively) and I’m training in scent tracking with 2 of them. My kids are grown and gone, I’m single and work from home, anywhere I have wifi. I walk pets early in the morning, and spend 90 minutes at the gym which is potentially the longest your pet would be without supervision and care. I require specific details about your pets routine, character and potential Veterinary needs and care, plus communication while you are away at your discretion. Owner preferences for change of habits requested (do they sleep with you? Treat/reward/training system? How are they in the car?).
