“Niki is a fantastic dog walker that always brought our pup back with a smile on his face. Every time she came to the door, he would get super excited knowing he was about to go on an adventure with her. I Definitely recommend Niki if you are looking for a trustworthy dog walker that will wear your pup out!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Phedre! She’s absolutely amazing with my dog, and it’s such a relief knowing my pup is in such good hands when I can’t be there. My dog adores her, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares for the animals she works with. Phedre’s communication is always clear, prompt, and thoughtful - she keeps me updated with photos and little notes about how the walk went, which I really appreciate. She’s incredibly detailed, friendly, and professional. I trust her completely and feel so lucky to have found her. I would recommend Phedre again and again to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog walker. She’s truly the best!”

We will be using Anatasia regularly!”

“Chelsea walks my sweet Vladimir everyday because I’m not able to. He comes back from his walks so lazy and relaxed. She will send a cute photo of your pet each walk. She runs them around and takes them to secured grassy areas. She really works hard and does the most amazing job. I recommend her over everyone else in Elko.”


“Followed all my directions with my pup!”

“Reggie appreciates the walks!!!”


About: Grew up with family dogs from a little Pomeranian to a big ol American Akita, so I feel comfortable with dogs of any size. My kiddo is home for the summer so animals comfortable with kids would be lovely! I have a school aged child and have limited availability for a traditional job, looking to get walks in while he is at school or in the evenings. Anytime in the summer if my kiddo is able to tag along :) I am kind and curtious especially in someone else's home. Take shoes off at the door, clean up after yourself. Taking care to make sure the required tasks are completed correctly and following directions on locking up, ECT.

“Kensey did an amazing job watching my 2 dogs! She kept me updated and sent me lots of pictures of them. I got 2 crazy dogs who need lots of attention and have a lot of energy and she handled them perfectly! She was also available last minute and I really appreciated her help!”



“Linda did an excellent job with our two dogs. They were happy to see Linda when she came to take them on their daily walk. Linda was great from before the start. To begin there was a list of people to choose from. First contact from Linda before saying she would walk our dogs she asked if there was a time she could meet our dogs. At first meeting the dogs were found of Linda who asked questions and listened to our concerns as well as instructions. Linda did a wonderful job and we would recommend her to any and everyone. Thank you Linda and Rover!”


About: I have been an avid walker and dog lover for years. I am good with dogs and love spending time with animals making them feel happy, loved, and tired out after a long walk!! Living in Boise and working remotely offers me immense flexibility. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine through structured walks, playtime, and dedicated attention slots. My schedule allows me to adapt to a dog's specific needs, ensuring consistent care throughout the day and week, whether it's midday potty breaks or extended outdoor adventures. My approach to pet care, whether in my home or a client's, is built on a foundation of safety and trust. For in-home care, I conduct a thorough home assessment to identify any potential hazards. When caring for pets in their own homes, I meticulously follow client instructions, maintaining their routines and environment. My deep awareness of surroundings means I'm constantly monitoring the pet, the environment, and potential risks, prioritizing their well-being above all else. For walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid busy areas if preferred, and always carry water and first-aid essentials. Building trust with both the pet and owner is paramount, achieved through clear communication and consistent, reliable care.

“Janessa followed all my directions with my pup!”

About: Hi! My name is Brooke and I have petsitted for people for almost 20 years. I love animals of all sorts of shapes and sizes. I hope you'll consider me for watching your babies and here is why. I've administered shots and medicine and up until 2 years ago I had pets of my own. I lost my heart dog Murphy on NYE of 22 in surgery, got diagnosed with Cervical cancer myself that March I, mid-April had a radical hysterectomy. A week before my birthday that yeArI also lost my cat to a dog or coyote attack. Murphy(dog) was 10, Velcro(cat) was 15 and my lil shadow. I lost all that is light and love that year. I cannot have kids, and I dearly miss my fur babies nothing will ever replace them but I do have a big heart. I am tired of going home to an empty house. I want someone to argue over the last bite with and whether or not cheese really is a dessert. I am ready to get another dog, but first savings!!! I've always had savings for myself and my animals because life can go sideways. So that's why I'm here! I'm currently working two part time jobs to help pay the bills and what I get here will go straight to savings so I am properly prepared to get a pup of my own. I would love nothing more to love on your animals while I prepare for my own. And possible into the future as well. I am currently only available for overnight petsitting at your home I am working 2 part time jobs and. Gone for about 8 hrs a day for said jobs except maybe be day a week. Your animal is my main priority! I chill with them and follow th parameters paid out for me. And hang with them for the agreed upon timeframes
