About: As a dog mom, I know how important it is to you to make sure your dog receives the proper care. I’m an avid dog lover with ample experience dog walking and sitting for friends and family. I am both attentive, caring, and trustworthy. Dogs tend to warm up to me quick. Instinctively, I think they sense I am a good person who is going to take good care of them. Please feel free to reach out to me! I am available on both weekdays and weekends for dog walking. I have a car and a flexible schedule. I was born and raised here so I know the area very well. As I love dogs, I am more than happy to help out with your pouch. Look forward to hearing from you and to meeting your pooch! :)

About: I've taken care cats, dogs, and guinea pigs since I was a little kid. My family was super adventurous and we took our dogs everywhere with us. Growing up we fostered cats and dogs of all breeds and ages. I am a professional cross-country skier so I am very active during the day. I can go on many walks or runs with your dog if needed. I will be out for two hours in the morning and then free until the afternoon. Our cats are indoor cats because of our busy street. However, growing up we would let our cats out for however long they wanted and then let them in. We had a revolving door so when we were home they were allowed to go out. I will try to make you feel as comfortable and safe as possible when watching your pet.

“Gus and Georgia had so much fun meeting Adam and came home happily tired from their nice walk. Thank you!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. From energetic puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m here to give them the care, attention, and love they deserve. What makes me different? I take the time to really get to know each pet their quirks, their routines, and what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their humans. I have experience with basic puppy training (like leash walking, potty habits, and socialization), and I’m comfortable helping senior pets with mobility support, medication, or just offering a calm, caring presence. You can count on me to treat your furry family member like one of my own with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible and reliable schedule for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and cared for. I’m also available on weekends and open to overnight stays if your pet needs a little extra company or consistency while you’re away. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I’m here to help keep your pet happy, healthy, and loved. I usually care for pets in their own homes, as I live in a small apartment without a yard. This helps keep pets comfortable in familiar surroundings and reduces their stress. Whether I’m at your home or assisting with other needs, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and routines, while providing plenty of love and attention so your pet feels secure and happy.

About: I have taken care of animals, whether they are my own or my neighbors since I was a child. I have fed, walked, bathed, given medications to, and played with most types of animals. I just moved to the area, so I currently have all the time in the world to hang out with your fur-babies. I have two cats of my own and I love to play with them, but I love meeting new animals and making friends. My cats have free roam of the house, and they are very well behaved. They are allowed outside with a harness on, and they love to explore. When taking care of animals in a home that is not my own, I typically ask what the owner prefers to do, and that will be my default for the time period I am caring for that animal.

“Andrew was outstanding. He is very responsive. He took excellent care of my dog and my dog loved him right away. He is the best. I highly recommend Andrew.”

About: Hi my name is Janis, I have lived in the wood river area for the past 5ish years and love it out here! I have grown up my whole life around dogs and I have also done many dog sitting and housing sitting jobs throughout the years. I love running, nordic skiing playing fetch and being outside in general so if you have a dog with a lot of energy we will be a good match. If you have any questions about me feel free to message me, I'm willing to work with you in order to make you and your pup feel comfortable. I look forward to hearing from you! I have a flexible day time schedule so I am able to get the dogs out for a run, hike, bike, ski during the day. I have a small border collie husky mix named panda. She is really sweet and playful and gets along with all dogs. I also have a white border collie mix named ziggy who is super playful and loves all dogs and cats! I unfortunately can’t have more dogs in my home, but am happy to house and pet sit and will be sure to take great care of your place!

“Amy is truly exceptional. Her communication skills are top-notch, she's always punctual, very friendly and being around her naturally puts you at ease. I will be booking more dog walking sessions with her! My pup came back thoroughly exercised and in the best mood—tired yet content and mellow.”

About: I started sitting in earnest four years ago, but grew up with my own dogs and often babysat for friends and family in high school and college. I’ve cared for Greyhounds, Border Collies, Shihtzus, Golden Retrievers, Corgis, APBTs, one Mastiff, one Akita, one senior German Shpeherd, and one Border Terrier/Shihtzu puppy. I’m a teaching artist, so my fluctuating schedule doesn’t allow me to have my own dogs, but the long periods of remote work and time between gigs means I have very flexible availability and can fill the hole in my heart by being a reliable, loving sitter for others. I really cherish any opportunity to spend time with any pups and look forward to meeting yours! I’m between gigs at the moment, so save some odd appointments, I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening drop in walks, daytime sitting, or longer overnight stays and in-home sitting. I always prefer to take a walk with pet parents leading when I first meet new dogs to get a sense of what they’re used to. For multi-day sitting, I always follow whatever norms you set in your home to make sure training stays consistent and there’s no confusion that may create anxiety for your pups. If working remotely, I try to stay where pups can see me and take lots of breaks for walks, pottying, and pets. Unless you have a specific walking route, I like to stay on quieter streets with slower speed limits and less traffic so walks are calm. I also like to allow lots of time for sniffing (smells stimulate your pup’s brain!) unless you have behavioral or training concerns about avoiding distractions during walks.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with a passion for caring for pups of all shapes and sizes. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just some cozy couch time, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home—whether you’re gone for the day or away for a week! Dogs bring so much joy and balance to my day. I plan my schedule around giving pets the attention, exercise, and care they need—whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or winding down with cuddles in the evening. At my home, dogs have plenty of space to enjoy! I have a yard where they can safely run around and play, or just relax on the porch and soak up the sunshine.

“Jackie was wonderful! I had to ask her last minute to walk my 80lb baby and she took the time and effort to come meet us both beforehand to get acquainted. She took great care of him and sent lots of pics for my peace of mind :) highly recommend!!”

About: Hi! My name is Jori and I am a full-time college student studying Environmental Science at Westminster. I love nature, being outside, and staying active-- which are all things I would love to bring your dog along for. I have a nice house and a fenced in area. I have about 4 years of dog sitting experience under my belt and just recently adopted a new yellow lab puppy of my own. That being said, I absolutely adore dogs. I would love to be able to bring my puppy along, but am also understanding if that does not work for you. My schedule is very flexible, and I am always open to working something out! I hope I can be the right fit for you and your pup!

About: I have always had more than two dogs throughout my life, and getting to take care of them is my favorite part of my day! Pet sitting fits well into my weekly routine because I am responsible, dependable, and have a flexible schedule. I can provide pets with regular feeding, exercise, attention. I provide safe, attentive care for pets in either my home or a client’s home. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, exercise, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life they are my world. I have extended this love to volunteering at Mountain Humane Society in Hailey. All dogs are my babies they get lots of care and attention from me. If I’m not home with my dogs then I’m volunteering and helping with other dogs they are a big part of my life.Every dog should have a good home and loving people too care for them. They are like my kids I haven’t met a dog who doesn’t like me. Dogs are a gift and they should be treated like one. Playtime, walks, cuddles, are important factors.

“So easy to communicate with, thank you so much for the walk:) Highly recommend”

About: Hi, I’m Jean! I’m here to make sure your dog lives their best Wood River Valley life. Think walks, hikes, river hangs, snow romps, and yes… the occasional puppuccino. I’m comfortable with pups of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I’m happy to tailor everything—exercise, routines, meds, cuddles—to whatever your dog needs to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. If your dog thrives on adventure, chill time, or a little of both, I’ve got them. Let’s make their time with me feel like a mini vacation. I work for a local non profit and have a flexible schedule for the most part, working from and the office when I have meetings. I can easily sync with your schedule and your dog’s routine. My goal is simple: keep your pup comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I genuinely love all dogs, and I want yours to feel totally at ease with me. Whether I’m popping in for a quick visit or taking them out for a walk, I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for.

About: Now serving Lincoln County residents as well as the Wood River Valley. Because of my love for animals, I have been the go to person to ask to care for other's animals. My experience ranges from giving pills to a St. Bernard to taking a Terrior puppy out every two hours (into the night also) to go pee. I respect animals and know that I need to take care of them as if they were my own. I have two Border Collie mixes that are sweet and high energy. You will feel at ease while your pets are with me. I thank you in advance for your consideration and hope that we will work together soon! I make it work. I love that I can be there for someone and care for their pets. I am willing to take on any pet and fit them into my life. My dogs are crate trained and that's where they sleep at night. Any visiting dogs can sleep where they like, whether it's on a bed, in a crate as well, or on the couch or floor. I make sure to keep my dogs' and others' dogs' food separate.
