“Sara did a fantastic job ... but don't tell anyone, OK? I want to make sure she's available when I have to leave the boys again. She stayed the night so they weren't lonely and they didn't rush to me like they usually do when I come home after being away. It's a big stress reducer to know Sara was there. Thank you!”


About: Hey! My name is Kelly and I am 35 yrs old. I love love love animals and want to provide the convenience of having your pets watched in the environment they are use to, your home! Nothing stresses animals out more than being in an unfamiliar environment. I have experience in working with animals, being a dog groomer and volunteering at the animal shelter in Emmett ID. Including many years of doggie daycare. I have three small dogs that love adventures as much as I do! It is a full time job caring for others pets. I work daily to ensure your pets get the best care possible under my supervision. In home pet care requires a profound trust that I strive to achieve daily. It take a special person to come into your home and care for your loved ones like their own.

About: I bring a unique combination of experience, reliability, and specialized skills to pet sitting. Having worked with a variety of pets and livestock, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I’m experienced in in taking care of animals of all ages, providing attentive care for senior pets, and administering medications when needed. You can count on me to provide trustworthy, dependable care, ensuring your animals feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved in your absence. My ability to handle diverse needs and my passion for animals truly set me apart as a sitter. I work from home and my roommate works part time, allowing us to provide focused and attentive care for your pets throughout the day. With a flexible schedule and constant companionship, your pets will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care, ensuring their needs are met while you’re away. In our home, your pets will be cared for alongside our two friendly dogs, providing them with companionship and a safe, welcoming atmosphere. Our fenced yard offers plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their routines and creating a calm, familiar environment. Whether at your home or mine, you can trust me to ensure their safety, comfort, and happiness every step of the way.

About: I am a college student who just finished my first year of college and am home for the summer. I plan on saving up for college and my new apartment and will be leaving again in August 2025. I am passionate about animals and have been pet-sitting for years now and I really enjoy it. I have also had dogs and cats my whole life and have cared for them. I currently care for two senior dogs at home who take medication and have some extra needs, so I have experience with pets with additional care needs. I understand the responsibility and importance of taking care of someone else’s beloved pets and would love to be apart of your pet family. I am available for most pet-sitting on all weekdays and weekends until roughly August 2025. Since it’s summer, I can do drop-ins, in-home dog sitting, and walking whenever needed. I value respect greatly especially in a client’s home. I understand the privilege of being let into someone else’s home, so I find it important to respect them and their home. I give pets frequent potty breaks and lots of love and cuddles. I also will give 1-2 walks for dogs a day.

About: Hi! My name is Naomi and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, from lizards and snakes to chickens and ducks and a few dogs and cats in the middle. Because my mom grew up in the industry, I grew up volunteering at the local veterinary clinic and later used those skills to become a veterinary technician myself. I’ve been in the industry for 3 years so I am confident in my skills as a pet care giver. I am here to support you and your pet so you can be at ease knowing your little companion is taken care of. If you have further questions feel free to message me :) I am currently looking to go back to school to specialize in herptology and am trying to save some money. I am married but that won’t interfere with my stays or drop bys. If you message me I can make most things fit into my schedule I currently have a Labrador retriever and 3 lovely cats. I am very attentive to their needs and behaviors. Because I worked in veterinary medicine I am always on high alert for any issues that might arise. When it comes to my clients animals I make sure to treat them the same if not better then my own. Some one is entrusting a member of their family to me and I take that very seriously.

“Sydney was AMAZING with my two pups. They don’t trust easily but warmed up quickly to her. Sydney gave constant updates which was super reassuring, and took care of my two dogs like her own. 10/10 I would recommend Sydney.”


“Absolutely amazing! I could not be happier with the care Vanessa took of my kiddos! I got pictures and updates on how they were doing witch gave me peice of mind, I will absolutely be boarding them with her in the future!”


About: Kyara- I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—and caring for them has always been second nature to me. My passion for their well-being runs deep, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of owning and supporting animals with a wide range of health conditions and special needs. Whether it’s routine care or an unexpected emergency, I approach every situation with calm, confidence, and compassion. Vet visits and urgent calls don’t shake me—they motivate me to show up fully for the animals that depend on me. Jon- I’ve been an animal and true dog lover my entire life. I’ve loved training all the dogs I’ve ever owned and have now worked with our GSPs for bird training. We may have 3 dogs of our own, but any and all dogs fit right in here with them! They are respectful of others who don’t want to play, yet playful with those who do and they will match their energy 🐶 Currently I am working from home as our business’ social media manager and working towards my real estate license, so my availability is very flexible. We have two German Shorthaired Pointers and one Mini Aussie/Corgi mix, a large fenced yard, and a park down the road. If you’d like us to take them on our adventures (ie hikes, lakes, etc), we can also discuss that!

Kyara & Jonathan F.
“Kyara and Jonathan are awesome! I have a high energy breed so it’s tough to find someone to handle her. They sent so many photos and videos of her living her best life! They kept me well informed of how Luna was doing with their dogs, eating and drinking habits, and making sure she was doing good while I was gone. Luna came home completely exhausted from playing with their dogs for five days. The only way to tire out a GSP is to run them with other GSP’s! I’ll definitely be using them in the future for any time I need to board Luna. I highly recommend them!”
