“Stephanie was beyond fantastic! She was incredibly responsive and gave great check ins on how my pup was doing. She is incredibly kind, patient and caring to both pup and owner alike. I find myself so lucky to have found her! 10/10 would recommend.”


“Wendy is wonderful! They have a very professional setup, from air conditioned kennels, to individual kennels/runs for each dog, and keeping us informed on how the dogs were doing during their stay. When we picked up our dogs up they were happy and healthy. I will definitely be a returning customer!”


“Suzanne and her family were wonderful with dog. He is a bit anxious so he needs to be somewhere out of town where he can be off leash. At Suzanne’s house he walks in the woods and plays with her older dog. He bonded with Suzanne’s son and I got lots of pictures. Suzanne was very flexible on both drop off and pick up time as I was traveling with friends and didn’t have an exact time. We will definitely be back to Suzanne’s house for dog care.!”


“Heidi Was great! Drop off was easy. Aspen (Dog) grew up on a small farm, so it was like visiting his old home. She sent photos of him to me and that warmed my heart. I would 100% recommend Heidi to anyone!”


“Hallie took great care of our small senior pup, Finnegan while we were away. She sent lots of photos (which we loved) of their adventures. Lots of walks & even some beach time! We will definitely be reaching out again in the future if you need care.”


“Abby takes pet care to a level I never thought possible, she is the best we’ve ever found, and our dog June adores her like a beloved family member. Abby’s love for animals runs so deep and it shows in the absolute top-level care and attention she gives to fur babies. She also lives a non-toxic lifestyle and is an expert on human and pet nutrition, so we feel so safe and at peace whenever our dog is with her— no chemical exposures, no weird fragrances when we get our dog back (which has been an issue with pet sitters in the past), and we know our dog is getting the most nourishing, high-quality food and treats when she’s with Abby. Abby has even helped guide us on tweaking our dog’s diet for better outcomes, and at 7.5 years old, our dog June has never been healthier and so vibrant, which we attribute to Abby’s help. Abby is passionate about giving dogs the utmost in outdoor adventures and healthy socialization when she’s caring for them, and our June comes home from her house so fulfilled, balanced and at peace (in the past with other pet sitters our dog has come home more anxious and on edge, but this is certainly never the case with Abby on watch). Abby also keeps up on communication and check-ins when we’re away, sending pictures and updates, and my gosh what a magical life these pets have when they are with Abby! It’s a dog’s dream!!! We have so much peace of mind when we leave our dog June with Abby, which is something every pet owner deserves to feel when they’re away for a while. Abby is an angel, and the warmth and love she provides in her home is incredible, it’s not something you see often. I can think of no one better to leave your beloved fur babies with. When people say she’s a dog whisperer, they aren’t kidding. See for yourself. She’s amazing.”


“Michel was outstanding! I appreciated the connection before our visit to talk about our pup's needs and all the photos while caring for our 7 month old pitty puppy, Penny. Penny seemed to have a great time and made herself quite at home with Michel.”



“Serena was wonderful! We took an extremely last minute trip out of town and Serena was very flexible and prompt responding. She sent updates every day with pictures and Walter looked happy and relaxed. We’ll definitely use her again!”


About: We always used Rover for our little miss while we were away. She weighed 12 lbs and had health issues later in life. She recently passed due to old age and instead of owning another new pet we decided to help other people have a happy safe environment for their fur baby. You can tell when you enter a home if it’s truly the right place for your beloved pet. We want to provide that right place for you. We are mostly interested in the small vulnerable dogs that need extra attentive loving care. We are very dedicated to the pets needs and safety. So much so that a dear friend told me that when she died she wanted to come back as my dog. LOL. She saw how we raised our dog, the same as we raised our kids. Lots of love and dedication to their needs. Typically it is just my husband and I but sometimes our two grandkids come to spend the night. They are so good with animals and enjoy playing with them. It’s all about respect and that’s our priority with all animals. We are retired. We love home gardening in the summer and love to go on small daily walks. In earlier years we raised seeing eye dogs for the blind. It was challenging but fulfilling. The hard part was getting attached to the dog but giving it up to go to a new home with someone who dearly needed their helping eyes. We are experienced with professional leash training as well as other aspects of professionally caring for dogs, and special needs dogs. We can administer medicine, eye drops, ear drops, dietary needs. Often the most important job is just to make sure that the “Scooby” treat is doled out at the right times. It can make the time away from their family more tolerable. We are more than glad to forward daily pictures and updates to the away family. Although a picture we posted shows a swim pool we DO NOT have a swimming pool. We know your fur baby’s safety is priority. Our fenced yard is large and perfectly safe from wildlife. We keep a constant watchful eye out at all times. Small dogs are more vulnerable and like very young children should never be left without supervision. We are more than happy to incorporate your pets routine into our daily routine. Daily walks, playing outside, and comfortable rest areas. Bedtime is the crucial time for the pet to feel safe and loved. Our bed or their bed, it’s really up to them.

About: We have had all manner of pets and livestock for over two decades. Right now we have one cat and two dogs who are beloved and spoiled family members. One of us is always at home, and your pup would have the freedom to be inside or outside as their heart desires (and the weather cooperates). We have a fenced in yard and two other dogs who will love to play with your pup. Our dogs are an integral part of our family. We like to hike and go on adventures - and if your dog has good recall we will definitely take them along!

About: Hello! My name is Krista and I have always loved animals. We have always owned many different animals. And I have a lot of experience pet sitting from a young age. I previously worked for a veterinary clinic for years before moving to Idaho. I worked every position in the clinic (except the verterinarian position)! I worked with the boarders and surgery animals in the kennels. I was a veterinary assistant. And I was also the front end receptionist. :) I look forward to meeting you and your pet. As well as giving them the best care. I am very flexible to help you with all your pet care needs. My schedule is very wide open and I'm sure I can work out a time that works best for you. I have a dog named Esther, she is 4 years old. I can provide text and email updates. I include pictures. I also keep logs for you of what I do during visits.

About: I have always had animals in my home since I was a little girl! I have raised dogs, cats, farm animals, reptiles, ect. I have been involved with a local animal hospital due to having several family members in the veterinary field and currently work as a dog bather! Because of this, I have plenty of on hands experience. I currently am a college student and athlete. My schedule is pretty dependent on my Soccer schedule and I work part time. But throughout the day I am available for visits and can stay most nights. If you’re flexible with me I am your girl! I’m always playing with my pets, letting them outside and giving them lots of attention! They get fed at certain times of the day and walks occasionally!

“Mikey was amazing!!! The care she had for our fur babies was more than we could have ever asked for. 10/10 will definitely recommend!! She’s definitely the person you want if you updates and great care for fur babies.”


“Julie has been great with both my dog and cat! She is very knowledgeable about animals as its clear she knows what she's doing. My animals Love, love, love Julie and I will recommend her to my firms and continue to use her regularly! :)”


About: I began 17 years ago with dog walking and pet sitting and grew into a professional, home style, doggie daycare and boarding facility. 90% of my customers had been attending every week for 3-6 years. I took pride in offering an alternative to traditional kennels and instead offered boarding in a home environment. Over the years, I cared for over 200 families. As much as I miss these dogs every day, it was time for me to move closer to my family. I sold my property and dog boarding business and moved to North Idaho. I am ready to start again. I am looking forward to meeting new dogs in my new community and inviting them into my home and family. I am also certified in pet first aid/cpr as well as insured. I have spent the past 17 years being available, full time, for dog daycare and boarding. I sold a dog care business (out of state) that I truly loved in order to move back home to North Idaho. I am settle in now, and ready to welcome your pup into my home. I home and available full time. Offering daycare and boarding in my home. We have a fenced in area for outdoor potty and play. We will get to know your dog's needs and choose an appropriate sleeping area. Sleeping area vary from crates, to couches, to dog beds, or human beds.... depending on their needs and personality.

Kim & David S.
“They have a nice large fenced in yard and only keep one animal at a time. They treat animals like members of the family. Rest assured that if you leave your fur baby with Kim Stricker they will be fed and watered, walked, given a nice place to sleep and most importantly loved like a member of the family! The only thing you have to worry about is that they get spoiled so much they may not want to go home.”
