Dog Walking Southeast Boise

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 13. The first dog I had to care for was my own, when I got my dog Dash my dad said we could keep her if my siblings and I took care of her. She is now 10 years old and the greatest responsibility I have taken care of in my life. I also started dog sitting for friends and family not long after. I have taken care of older dogs who need medication and help with their mobility. Puppies who have been from 1 month to 1 year old, whether it was stopping by afterschool to let them out while potty training or keeping them active. I’ve taken care of dogs from complicated backgrounds who need more time to open up. One of the dogs I regularly take care of was a rescue who didn’t like men and was scared of new people I would spend time with the family in their home so the dog could get used to me before i would take care of him on my own. Understanding a dogs personality and being respectful of their space is always important to learn to establish a connection with a dog. Adapting to their routine makes for an easy transition for both dog and owner. I enjoy caring for dogs and getting to know them, there’s nothing greater then having a dog by your side. DISCLAIMER!! (I WILL BE LEAVING FOR SCHOOL AUG 20th) I am more compatible with pets who can go a few hours without supervision. Currently I am home for break from college and have most of my schedule free. In the summer when I come back to Boise I work a part time job. So being able to leave for a few hours works the best for me. When taking care of someone else’s pet I always ask as many questions as possible, based on both the pet and owner. Learning their routines, personalities and quirks helps me best adapt to the lifestyle both pet and owner share. When taking care of a pet in their own home being respectful and responsible is a must not only do I have to earn the pets trust but also the owners. I am being trusted with someone’s beloved pet and want to make sure it’s easy for both parties. I have a chiwinne named Dash who is my pride and joy. She loves to lounge in the sun, in warmer weather she will always be outside in our fully fenced backyard where we can see her. She likes to go on a small walk each day and play inside with her toys. Dash would rather stay laying in her bed or the couch all day if she could but we always try to keep her healthy and safe. Being part winner dog she still has a long spine, we always try to make sure she’s careful from not hurting herself.

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets! Big dogs, small dogs, small animals, and reptiles! I have always had dogs and for most of my life I have also had additional pets. I have experience in enrichment for all types of animals and administering medicine for senior pets. I would love to get to know your pets! Starting in August, I will begin school but my passion for animals will happily sneak its way into my schedule. I have 2 days off during the week as well as many breaks within my school day to say hi to fur babies. In order to keep pets safe in the home, I am attentive in making sure that no food is left out, all the doors are shut, and any fence is closed off. When walking pets, I make sure that their leash is not too tight, and the temperature is not to hot for their paws. Along with thing I always monitor behavior to catch if anything seems off with their health.

“Our dog,Buster, loved Jolynne! She was very patient with him when he wasn’t sure about going out in the rain. Today he was waiting at the door for her even though I home ! I will definitely use her again!”

About: I’m a calm, intuitive caregiver with years of experience welcoming dogs of all ages, sizes, and abilities into my home. I’ve cared for tiny senior chihuahuas, blind and deaf pups, anxious dogs, energetic puppies, and giant breeds, each one supported with patience, structure, and genuine love. My gentle 97‑lb Labrador, Deyo, is a natural companion who helps other dogs feel safe, relaxed, and included. As a Reiki Master, I also offer optional daily Reiki sessions for pups who benefit from grounding, emotional support, or deeper relaxation. I’m skilled in senior care, medication administration, reading dog body language, and supporting sensitive or special‑needs pups. Because I prioritize individualized attention, I typically welcome one dog at a time, or two dogs from the same family, ensuring your pup receives truly focused, heart‑centered care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. I work from home as an intuitive energy healer with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to offer frequent walks, plenty of supervision, and a calm, consistent environment for boarding. Dogs are with me throughout the day getting fresh air, attention, and companionship, evenings are relaxed and cozy, perfect for winding down. Your pup is never overlooked and always cared for like family. In my home, dogs enjoy a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention and supervision. My home has a fenced‑in shaded backyard where pups get plenty of outdoor time, and lots of built‑in play with Deyo, my gentle 97‑lb Lab who loves making new friends. Inside, dogs get cozy rest time, a predictable routine, and plenty of snuggles from the whole family. Whether your pup wants to play, explore, or just relax, they’re cared for like one of our own. Your dog is never just “in the background.” They’re part of the rhythm of my day, seen, supported, and included in a peaceful, loving environment.

About: My son, Henry (11), and daughter, Ella (9), love animals of all kinds and were interested in becoming pet sitters/dog walkers. My husband, Ben, and I offered to partner with our kids so they would have some help as they started their journey. The details below are a little more about Henry and Ella. Please note that Ben and I will be the primary caretakers for any animals we interact with and are comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. (Henry) I have been around dogs of all ages my entire life. From puppies to senior dogs, I am sure to walk at a pace the dog is comfortable with and take breaks if the dog needs time to rest. (Ella) I love all dogs but especially those that like to be pet and snuggled. (Henry) Most of the time weekends are free for me so I thought why not start a dog walking business to start saving money. Outside of animals, I enjoy learning about computers and new technology. (Ella) I am normally free in the afternoons after school. Outside of dog sitting I enjoy gymnastics. (Henry) I have a pug that I walk everyday in my neighborhood. Even though I have a small dog, I also have experience with larger dogs such as boxers, golden retrievers, pyrenees, labs, doodles, and border collies. (Ella) When the dogs are in my backyard, I stay with them to make sure they feel comfortable.

“Linda did an excellent job with our two dogs. They were happy to see Linda when she came to take them on their daily walk. Linda was great from before the start. To begin there was a list of people to choose from. First contact from Linda before saying she would walk our dogs she asked if there was a time she could meet our dogs. At first meeting the dogs were found of Linda who asked questions and listened to our concerns as well as instructions. Linda did a wonderful job and we would recommend her to any and everyone. Thank you Linda and Rover!”
