“Michelle was available on short notice, provided a pic of my dogs upon check up and followed instructions as directed. Pleased with her service. My dogs seemed to have really liked her :) Thanks Michelle!”

“We’ve used Breana several times for our kitty and fish and she does an amazing job! We love the photos and know our kitty gets lots of love while we’re gone. She went above and beyond beyond on our last service when our fish tank starting pumping water into the floor - yikes! She reached out right when she saw the water on the floor and then took care of the immediate need when she couldn’t reach us. Excellent service!!”

About: I've been housesitting/animal-sitting since I was 13 and I truly enjoy it! I have years of experience in animal care, and I have 4 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I work from home on my laptop, so I'm always open and available to dogsit/housesit. This is like a second job to me! I can walk dogs, help to train them while I care for them, crate them if needed, administer medications, etc! Whatever you need me to do, I can do it.
“My dogs Akita and Macie really liked Jennifer. She was really good with them and was there on time. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter. She really cares about animals and is great with them. Thanks Jennifer for all the great pics you took of them.”
“Cheyenne did a great job taking care of our cat “Leo” while we were gone. She answered our request promptly and came the same day for meet and instructions. Thanks to her our plants stayed alive while we were gone in the almost 100 degree heat because she did some watering as well and we really appreciated that. Leo seemed well taken care of when we returned.”

“Shayla is so sweet and did a great job taking care of our cats. She helped us out super last minute and was on time and very responsible. We will definitely have her back to pet sit for us again!”

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and have had several years of experience taking care of pets of all ages for neighbors, co-workers, and friends. I am currently in college so I have a relatively flexible schedule to help offer plenty of time to take care of pets in between classes and in the morning and evenings. I prioritize focusing on pets needs and owner instructions. I can also provide updates on pets throughout the time they are under my care to help owner piece of mind.
About: I have been house and dog sitting since I was in my teens. I have a Yorkie myself that is registered as a service animal and needs to travel with me, but she is amazing with both dogs and cats, is hypoallergenic, doesn’t shed, and is house-trained. I know how important it is for some pets to be in their familiar environment while you are away, and I’m here to help meet whatever needs they have in their normal routine, including walks, medications, watering plants, bringing in mail/packages, and cleaning up any unexpected messes your pet may have. I’m meticulously clean, responsible, and respectful of your space. I love to hike with my own dog and we’re very active so I’m happy to meet any exercise needs your dog may have as well. Reach out to book today! Your fur babies and home are in good hands. I work full-time M-F, but I’m salaried and could absolutely come check on your pet every couple of hours, if needed, around work meetings. I’m happy to provide walks in the morning, afternoon or evening to maintain your pet’s normal routine. I’m available all day on weekends and all evening. I know how important it is for some pets to remain in their home when their parents are away. I’m happy to give your pet that comfort and security while providing additional services, such as cleaning up any unexpected pet messes, bringing in your mail, and watering houseplants. I have a small service dog that needs to travel with me, but she is great with both cats and dogs, is hypoallergenic, and doesn’t shed. I’m meticulously clean and responsible, and love animals.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and my step mom has fostered hundreds of dogs throughout the years so i’m used to being around dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, socialization levels, personalities, and temperaments. I have an open schedule right now! I’m available to watch or walk your pup or kitty at any time! Just give me a days notice and I’ll be there! I’m extremely attentive when it comes to pets and I know how to tell when something is up with them. You can trust me to pick up on their silent cues!
“Hallie is a gem! For nearly two weeks, she cared for our elderly cat who is uncomfortable with change and is a persnickety eater. Hallie had a calm and intuitive understanding of Smudge’s needs and adjusted accordingly ... and kept us well-informed. Hallie sat with her daily and talked with her and played her favorite Alexa cat music :) Hallie provided excellent care; I would absolutely recommend her.”
About: I LOVE animals! Dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits, basically all of the furry friends! We've had dogs and cats my whole life (from puppies and kittens to grumpy old men dogs). I've taken care of many of my friends and families dogs in my home and in their homes. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time for your pets! My schedule changes regularly but I’m generally available anytime, just send me a message! I have six acres with trails for walking your dogs! I have an older, playful and friendly dog plus two dog savvy cats. I do not have a fenced area but will leash walk the dogs (or no leash at owners request). I have hard wood floors and stairs that may not be ideal for tripods or aging senior dogs (unless they’re used to that). I no longer have a kennel, but if you bring one and want your dog kenneled I can do that. Your pup will enjoy lots of pets, snuggles, play time both indoors and outdoors and of course treats (as approved by pet parents)!

“Abby took fantastic care of my senior cat! What a lifesaver as I just moved to the area. She was very sweet and loving with him, kept in close touch and sent daily pictures and videos, and was completely trustworthy. She will be my first call if I need help again!”

About: Hi there! My name is Autumn and I am a 33 year old certified veterinary technician! I've been around animals all my life and have worked in many capacities such as humane societies, vet clinics, grooming salons, daycares, and boarding facilities and I ran my own animal rescue for 7 years. By choosing to me to watch your pets, you are choosing comfort and safety with a RECOVER CPR certified technician. Boarding kennels can be terrifying for many animals and if you have a special needs animal, this can be even more worrisome. With us, you know your pet is getting whatever specialized care and socialization it needs while you're away. I have cared for many animals near the end of their lives as well and take careful concern for those needing specialized care so you can go out of town without worrying about your pet, even with illness, medications, or very particular needs. I am a full time veterinary technician, so I have the ability to take dogs to work if needed. We spend days off hiking and making sure they get the exercise they need. I have a fenced yard to keep everyone safe. They are always on leash and I have the ability to crate everyone if needed. I have a lot of experience managing different dog behaviors.
About: I have raised and cared for countless pets and am without a pet for the first time since I can ever remember. I am self-employed so very flexible. Contact me for the TLC your fur baby is accustomed to. I prefer to care for pets in their home environment and will be a responsible trustworthy aide. If necessary, I have the perfect setup for indoor/outdoor flexibility in my downtown Sandpoint home with a fenced-in yard and a doggie door. Excellent references upon request. Pets are much more comfortable and less stressed in their own home but I will consider smaller, low-impact pets in my home on a short-term basis. I have a small house with a large yard and 4' high fence. There's a doggie door for small and mid sized pets for potty break convenience.
About: I am a stay at home mom of two awesome kiddos, one handsome border collie(Steve) and a large orange furry feline(Samson). We also have a couple of rowdy goats and a flock of beloved chickens. We are blessed to live on a heavenly bit of land (40 acres) with woods, ponds and creeks. It truly is a bit of paradise. We love animals here and thought, "Why not share our blessings with the critters of our community?" If you need care for pet so they are not alone all day and dont want them caged in kennel all day please give us a call! We have a fenced yard if your should need it and plenty of space for them to safely explore. I am available all day to help with the difficult potty training of some of our tiniest fur babies:) I look forward to meeting you!
