“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”
“Boone had sooo much fun at Rebeccas! Their home has so much area for the dogs to run and be outside, it made me feel so good knowing he was outside so much! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics! I will definitely be using Rebecca again!”
“Gabriella was the most incredible help with our dog June. We seriously could not have asked for a better family to watch our girl. The level of attention, love and care she gave allowed us to be at peace on our trip and trust that June was having the best time as well. We could not recommend Gabriella enough and forever grateful we found her.”
About: I have hands-on experience with high-energy dogs and know how to keep them happy, exercised, and mentally engaged. I’m patient and attentive, with a gentle approach that works well for both playful pups and older dogs who need a little extra care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. As a veteran Marine and someone who has competitively trained dogs since 2020, I approach pet care with structure, consistency, and discipline. I make sure pets are cared for with structure, safety, and attention to detail. I follow consistent feeding schedules, provide exercise and play tailored to each pet’s needs, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. With my background in competitive dog training, I also incorporate positive reinforcement and mental stimulation to ensure pets are not only well cared for but also engaged and happy.
“Crystal is obviously a dog whisperer! Woody apparently wasn't so sure he wanted to stay at her house at first, but she and her family were so patient and kind with him that he decided to join their pack after all! Their house is out in the country, and once he settled in, he had a really great time. Crystal lives not far from Coeur d'Alene, and she made our vacation there worry-free. Thanks, Crystal, for a great experience for Woody and for us!”
“I am very happy with my experience! My dog stayed 2 nights with Heather, where I received many pictures and updates on how things were going. All was positive and seemed like a great time! Would book again!”
“This was the first time we left our puppy Oakley and we were so nervous! Tammy put us right at ease from the beginning and she was so accommodating to Oakley’s needs. She was great to send messages and pictures daily of the things going on each day. Thanks Tammy for taking great care of our pup!”
“Alton and Val and their daughters are always so happy to watch after my doggy. And My dog is excited to go there. Happiness play days at their home. Thank you”
About: My childhood was shared with dogs of all kinds! Growing up we housed 5+ dogs at any given time. For 8 years of my life (between 13-21 years old) we were an active foster family. Successfully caring and training over 50 dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! While I have the most experience with small breeds, I am comfortable with all dogs. - I have experience with dogs ranging from newborn to senior! I have cared for all types of breeds, including energetic, combative, playful, and vocal. - I understand not all dogs are on their perfect behavior! I have dealt with food aggression, territorial, and disobedient tendencies. This does not bother me; patience is key! - I have LOTS of experience with both deaf and blind dogs. I currently work part-time. Although my schedule is not always consistent, I am willing to go the extra mile to make sure your dog is given the best care possible. I live in an apartment near the centennial trail! I am within a mile of multiple dog parks. Although I do not personally have a backyard, the apartment is very dog-friendly.
“Heidi was wonderful! One of our dogs is nervous about everything, and as usual, she was not eating. Heidi whipped up something delicious and got our old girl to eat! I received daily updates from Heidi, and she sent lots of pictures and videos. it helped us miss our dogs a little less!”
“Justin is amazing! He watched my 1-year-old puppy for 5 nights while I was away. Anyone who knows my dog knows he has an endless battery and will happily play for hours on end. I always worry a bit about leaving him because he requires so much activity to stay out of trouble, but Justin handled it perfectly. My dog came home incredibly happy, and I could tell he was in the best of hands the entire time. Thank you, Justin!”
“Milo had a great time and was taken care of exactly as his medical needs required. We appreciate the flexibility with his pickup and will certainly return if we need boarding again.”
“Jessica was so sweet to my anxious-at-first chihuahua! She sent me photo updates, took Finley with to run errands, and made sure she felt comfortable around the other dogs. I can’t recommend Jessica enough!!! ❤️”
“Here’s a warm, concise Rover review: We had a great experience! She was so sweet and caring with Cocopuff and was very flexible with our travel schedule. We even forgot to pack his food, and she was incredibly accommodating and made everything easy. We felt he was in great hands and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our baby! He had a blast with the other doggos and the sleep overs/extra cuddles with the girls. Thank you so much for everything!”
About: I've grown up with pets all my life on my family's ranch, where my dad and I specialized in training a wide range of dog breeds in bird hunting, hound hunting, herding, and general obedience skills. I am available on weekends and throughout most hours of the day during the week. I do work full time as a fish biologist, but my schedule is flexible and allows me to care for pets as needed to make sure they are always given proper care. I have a 2 year old golden retriever thats very friendly and playful. We go on walks twice a day and frequently visit dog parks. I also have a yard available for dogs to play in and use the bathroom.
“Danielle is fantastic! Her communication and willingness to do a meet and greet ahead of time (even though our dog's stay was only one night) meant the world to me. She sent several photos, which I really appreciated. I knew he was in good hands. Danielle has lots of experience with dogs, and did not flinch when she knew our's was a German Shorthaired Pointer. She had previous experience with the breed and that says a lot. Don't hesitate to book with her and her family. Your furry family member will be treated like one of her own.”
About: I have been around animals since I was a baby, I have 19 years of pet experience. We have a small farm. I’ve also helped my mom on rover for the past few months. I am currently helping my mother with Rover so my schedule is pretty flexible. When you book with either of us you will receive 3 adults giving your babies the upmost care and respect. I have a fenced 3 acre yard and 3 friendly dogs to keep your babies company. I have crates and means of separation if that is necessary. We treat our company like family, they are allowed on furniture and able to sleep with us unless told otherwise.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hayden
Lindsey, Leland, and family were absolutely fabulous with our Aussie for his first time being left at another home at age six. Receiving their messages about how well he was doing all of what dogs should do, including playing and walking, was a such a relief. Their children are wonderful, and all of them obviously love and know how to care for dogs. They made time for a meet and greet ahead of time, communicated clearly during our trip, and returned our boy healthy and happy. We are very thankful.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Hayden can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hayden home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hayden.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hayden. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Hayden sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ID ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
