Dog Walking Northwest

“Germaine has been walking our Luna three times a week for many months. Luna loves her time with Germaine, waiting for her by the door, even on the weekends! Germaine has been incredibly responsible and as well communicates extremely well. She has been proactive in minding her schedule and the holiday schedule. We are very satisfied to have utilized Germaine's time with our loved pup!”

About: Hi! My name is Jace. I work full time from home in a professional role, which allows me the flexibility to provide consistent attention and care while pet and house sitting. I understand that trusting someone with your pets and your home is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your pets stay comfortable in their normal environment while giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and am happy to work with diverse pet needs including feeding schedules, medications, puppy/senior care, walks/runs, playtime, and always include daily updates. I am an outdoors lover, and like when I am camping, I strive to leave a pet happier and a home cleaner than I found them. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and respectful. I work from home for a large financial institution and have the ability to bring my work laptop to anywhere there is a reliable WiFi connection. Pets bring joy and happiness to a meeting and email filled day. When I started my own pet care business, I wanted to create an experience that made owners feel like I was taking care of their pets as my own. I hope to bring this same level of comfort to you and your family when I provide my services.

About: I’ve grown up having dogs my whole life! After walking and looking after my own dogs, I started getting involved in walking and caring for friends and neighbors dogs since I was 13! I love taking my dog everywhere with me, I enjoy being around all types of dogs and puppies; I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am available from 10-6 Monday thru Saturday, I am in a transition period to my next job opportunity, and I’m here to help out when you need me while I’m searching for my next venture! Schedule will be updated with new hours when I get my next job opportunity! I am currently not offering boarding at this time, but for drop in check in visits I am here to keep your pets happy and looked after while they eagerly await your return!

“Ciera and James have been very reliable in helping for Nahla Bear on my 14 hour days away for work while my partner is out of town! We are so appreciative that she gets out and is well cared for!”

“Caitlynn was doing walks/drop in visits with my dog when I was out of town. She is very responsive and I know my dog is in good hands with her. This is my second time booking with her and I will continue to do so!”

About: Hello, my name is Atticus! I worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, have been pet and house sitting for neighbors and friends for over 3 years, actively volunteer at a cat shelter since 2017, and have been walking dogs since I was a kid. I have 5 pets (one dog, three cats, and one snake) of my own, making me well versed in caring for a variety of animals. I work a sporadically scheduled contracted job 1 to 3 Saturdays a month that I'm very committed to. However, these jobs have never gotten in the way of my care towards my own animals and the animals I have pet sat for. I don't pet sit in my own home, as I can't be sure that my animals will 100% get along with a client's animal. I have slept over in guest rooms of the houses I have spent over night in, as well as having only been in the house with the pets during the day, all per the client's request. Whatever one's house looks like or whatever features one's house may have, I am always sure to respect boundaries, clean up after myself, and make sure the house is left looking better than when I arrived.

About: I have walked and boarded dogs for 10 years. I am new to Rover. I love taking dogs for walks and getting them some exercise and enrichment. I work 9-5, with time for walks during lunch, before work, and in the evenings. Weekends can include up to three walks a day, including longer walks. At home, or with clients, dogs get a good watchful eye to ensure they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. With an adventurous pup of my own, I am careful to remove any “escape opportunities”

“Arlo loves Ellie! He gets a nice mid day walk and Ellie gives me updates and pictures of their time together. Thanks Ellie!”

“Wendy is wonderful. Kind and patient with Chloe as she adjusts to a new “friend.” Comes prepared and on time! Wonderful service with great communication.”

About: I work from home, and am able to provide lots of love and attention to your pup! I live in a single family home with a fully fenced yard. Our small poodle mix loves to socialize and play with other dogs. I work from home, so I’m always home! I have availability for multiple daily walks and playtime. I can be flexible with pick up and drop off times. I have a fully fenced back yard. There is also a large park to walk in (leashed) in my neighborhood. I can meet any feeding needs or special instructions.

About: I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am a responsible and reliable person who understands how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I grew up with animals, including dogs, cats, and a hamster. I currently have two cats, Draco and June! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities, including walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I am patient, attentive, and happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to keep your pet happy and healthy. Whether your pet needs a walk, company while you’re away, or extra care during the day, I will make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my routine. I currently work a 9–5 Monday through Thursday and 9–1 on Fridays, and I have availability on weekends. I’m also able to help with pet care before or after my work hours if needed. I’m happy to coordinate schedules for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, or check-ins to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I try to be flexible and work with owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space and keep the environment clean and calm so pets feel safe in their familiar surroundings. I also pay attention to their behavior and needs to make sure they are happy and well cared for. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands.

About: I’ve had a few dogs myself both big and small. I have hunted around a lot of dogs and have family who raises all animals. I’m a full time student at BSU. I have 2 years left here before heading to med school. I don’t have class Monday or Friday which makes me have free time. I like getting outside and exercising. I am a clean person who is able to adapt quickly in new areas. I will not be able to host any pets at my home.

About: I have always had animals in my life. Cats, dogs, birds. I have cared for small and large breeds. Raised Rottweilers and our latest rescue is a Pitbull Mastiff mix from Boise Bully Breed. I have cared for pets with special needs also enjoy senior pets. I work part time from home with a very flexible schedule, just need a couple hours a week on my laptop. Available for day and night walks. Over nights work for me as well. Our 3 dogs and 1 cat are all very spoiled. The dogs are seniors so their exercise is always age appropriate. When we have foster pups they all step up for quiet play. Whenever I care for others pets I always want to specialize the care for what works best for the animal. I know my own pets are use to their routines and I think it's important to maintain those as pets can often get anxious when moms and dads are gone.

“Very satisfied. My dog looked happy in all the pics that were sent.”

About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Cynthia, and I’m so glad you stopped by... I live in the beautiful North End of Boise and have been pet-sitting for years, caring for dogs and cats! Consider me your trusted ally who is dedicated to enriching your pet's daily experience while simplifying yours. I grew up with Saint Bernards, so handling large dogs is second nature to me. Our home was always full of animals—strays, rescues, and the occasional “foster fail” who became family. We made room for whoever needed it, and that mindset has stayed with me ever since. I’m comfortable with a full range of pet temperaments, whether they’re anxious zoomers or mellow seniors who just want a calm presence and some TLC. Got a skittish kitty? A bossy little lion? No worries, I speak fluent feline! With a background in cat enrichment and behavior modification, I have a knack for earning the trust of even the most standoffish and secretive cats. Whether your furry companion is shy, bold, or somewhere in between, I can read kitties well, and I always bring a calm, grounded energy that helps them feel safe and secure. I’m also borderline obsessive (in a good way) about secure entries and exits. If your pet is a known escape artist, trust that I’ll take special care not to let them out! Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, playtime, you name it. Also, please ask me anything if you can't find it in my profile! I'm happy to discuss extra services that you or your pet needs to feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away! I am recently retired early from the tech industry and now have time to give back to my community and neighbors! I'm available 7 days a week, and for overnights if needed and if the fit is right! Contact me anytime, and we can coordinate something that works, whether it's just hanging out with your pet or having a fun adventure! I've lived a lifetime with pets and rescued animals, so for me they are family. I treat all living things with respect, understanding, and care. I'm always thinking ahead of potential scenarios when planning any outings, making sure I'm prepared with extra leashes, treats, and/or a strong understanding of an area and what to expect.

“She was so punctual, communicative and my pup loved her! So glad to have someone in the neighborhood for walks! Thank you 😊”

About: I have over 10 years of experience as an emergency vet tech. In addition to that have been a caring pet owner all of my adult life. Since becoming a human physical therapist I also got certified in canine physical therapy. We recently moved to Boise and I am currently working part time. I have time in the early morning and midday for longer walks and drop in visits. I love walking/light jogging. Seeing a dog enjoying a walk makes me so happy! Reducing a pets stress when their owner is out of town is important!

“Kalli has very clear communication skills and is very timely. She was very kind with my special needs dog. I would definitely book with her again!”
