Bogus Basin Dog Retreat

Pet care experience

I have over a dozen years experience of housesitting & petsitting in the owner's home. I can check on pets during the day and take them for short "potty" breaks while you're away from home. Camel's Back Park is a few blocks away and the sidewalks on the North End are well protected! I understand and easily follow detailed instructions for feeding, medication, and even watering plants. Meet & Greets are encouraged! Why I love dog sitting I (Amy) had a wonderful large dog growing up on a farm. We also had cats, hens, and rabbits. I love warm blooded animals and enjoy treating them like family. My girl (Gracie) was a Craigslist rescue because she failed as as hunting dog. I've had her for seven years and she loves to charm humans and dogs. My boy (Thunder) was a starving stray at the farm who was begging for love and a job! He is a working dog and has been my big lap dog for seven years, as well! Meet my pets We have two Siamese boy cats and the two adult dogs on the profile. About my yard Good wooden fence all the way around three sides of the house. Some grass but it's not perfect, not muddy either. There is a small private park next door that the dogs can play in, they seem to love all the different smells! My experience administering medication Oral and topical medications are easy for me, but injections will be left for the owner.

I was in a bind and need to find daycare for my dog last minute. Luckily I found Amy. We didn't have time for a proper meet and greet until the morning I dropped my dog off. Although her house is small and the backyard is not pristine, the things that stood out the most for me was Amy's knowledge of how to introduce Molly to her two dogs, the way she has set up her house to accommodate her cats' and dogs' needs, and how calm and socialized her dogs were.

Amy was very responsive and caring for our energetic puppy. She took him for walks, and ensured ample play and rest time. Would recommend her!

The boys loved Amy. We were traveling thru Boise and hired Amy to sit the dogs in our vacation rental to give ourselves a night out. Amy clearly loves dogs and we felt fortunate to find someone we immediately trusted to leave our dogs with.

Amy was great, our goldens were well cared for. She sent pictures of the dogs on their walks and there were no problems at all. Would use her again in a heartbeat.

Information Amy W. would like to know about your pet

Please don't forget to tell me the bad and the ugly, it helps me help your pup! No breed restrictions, but if your little dog hates big dogs, we aren't the spot for you, sorry. Food aggression and cat aggression are not acceptable. Would hate to find out the hard way, so please disclose. Thunder likes playful big dogs and Gracie loves to sun bathe with the little guys. I love big soft fluffy dogs, especially during winter.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I take my dogs for walks on the nearby trails, where there are on & off leash areas. Also, this neighborhood is dog & pedestrian friendly! Your dog's sleeping arrangement Bring their bed and they will sleep in the office with mine. Child gates (as necessary) to keep them contained but not closed off. I do not let my dogs sleep on the bed with me, but if need be, I can put your dog(s)' bed next to mine to keep them comforted while you are away. Time I'll spend with your dog I have the pleasure of morning and evening walks with my own dogs. Also, lunch breaks often find us at the nearby park. My dogs spend equal time outside in the backyard and inside napping. Your pup will join them outside as weather permits. But please let me know your preferences and I will be delighted to accommodate!
