About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and truly love caring for them. I’m the type of sitter who talks to your pet like they’re my best friend and makes sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. I’m comfortable with all ages, whether it’s helping a puppy learn the ropes or giving extra patience and care to seniors. I have a day job, but I’m always available for pet care in the mornings, after 5 p.m., and overnight. Wednesdays and weekends are completely open, so I can give extra time and attention then. I make it a priority to show up with care, energy, and consistency whenever I’m with your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their comfort and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, or medication—so your pet feels safe and secure. I respect your space, keep things clean, and aim to make your pet feel as relaxed as possible while you’re away.

About: Hi! We’re a pet-loving family with years of experience caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. We have experience with dogs ranging from small breeds to large breeds, as well as cats. We currently share our home with two cats, so we understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, and consistent care while their owners are away. As a family, we enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Our 11-year-old daughter loves helping with age-appropriate pet care tasks such as playing, brushing, and providing extra attention under close parental supervision. All feeding, walking, medication administration, and primary care responsibilities are handled by the adults. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm and consistent routine, we’ll tailor our care to their individual needs. We understand that every pet is unique and treat them like members of our own family. We are happy to care for: * Small, medium, and large dogs * Puppies and senior dogs * Cats of all ages * Multiple-pet households Our goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are receiving reliable, loving care and plenty of attention. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine. As cat owners, we are accustomed to providing consistent feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and companionship. We are available for morning and evening visits Monday through Thursday, and offer more flexible availability, including daytime visits, Friday through Sunday. We understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s normal routine and strive to provide dependable, attentive care that helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets in our clients’ homes by following each pet’s established routine as closely as possible to reduce stress and maintain comfort. We prioritize safety at all times, ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are properly secured during visits and walks. We carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions provided by the owner. We respect the client’s home by keeping spaces clean, cleaning up after pets, and leaving everything as we found it. Our approach is calm, attentive, and reliable, focusing on building trust with both pets and their owners through consistent, compassionate care.
“Kara was great with my boys. I had a last minute cancellation from another sitter and she stepped in without even having met my three dogs. I appreciate this so much and will not hesitate to use her again!”
About: Hello! We have many years of experience providing reliable and loving pet care. Your pets will feel right at home in our safe, family-oriented environment, and we are committed to caring for them as if they were our own. We offer a true “home away from home” experience—no kennels. Pets are welcome on furniture, have full access to our home, and can enjoy a large, fenced backyard for play and exercise. We also provide daily walks (weather permitting), typically in the early morning and evening. Someone is always home, so your pet will receive constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of affection. We also offer convenient pick-up and drop-off services within a 5-mile radius. Our home includes six young children, so we do require that dogs are comfortable and friendly around people. Our children are taught to interact gently and respectfully with animals, and they love playing outside and engaging with our visiting pets. Cats are cared for individually, and we are happy to accommodate those who may be more reserved or less social. Please note that we often host multiple dogs at a time. If you are specifically looking for one-on-one care, feel free to reach out—we may be able to accommodate depending on availability. Thank you for considering us. We look forward to providing your pet with a safe, loving, and enjoyable stay! My husband and I do this full time so we have plenty of time to give lots of love and cuddles to Your fur baby. The kids are in school most of the day and it’s just my husband and I and our younger kids. We like to let the dogs come and go into the back yard as they please and feel at home. We will make sure your pup is safe and well taken care of while your away all while burning off some energy and having fun! We only watch pets in our home.
“Five stars for Jamie! She did fantastic drop-in visits for Chewy, providing walks, feeding, and consistent updates. The photos she sent made it clear that Chewy trusted her and was in great hands. She was also highly professional and accommodating when my schedule changed. I will absolutely be using her again and recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog sitter! Thank you so much!”


“Atticus was great with taking care of our cats as well as being agreeable to taking care of non-pet related tasks such as taking out the garbage to the curb and bringing in packages. Atticus was communicative, agreeable to a meet and greet, and stuck to the care schedule. I would book with Atticus in the future and recommend others do the same.”

About: Experienced pet sitter and walker with hands-on experience caring for all types of animals, different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I provide dependable, attentive care, exercise, enrichment, and plenty of love. I love spending time with animals! As a part-time pet sitter, I have plenty of flexibility to give your fur babies attention, care, and companionship. I enjoy providing in-home pet care services, keeping your pets comfortable in their own home while following their normal routine, schedule, and individual needs.
About: Like many animal lovers, I raised cats and dogs the majority of my life. Even raised 9 pups from my own dog! I’d like to help take care of your pets with you. My previous work had me travel for 3 years so I understand how challenging it can be to have someone watch your pets. You wonder if they’ll be as nice, gentle, caring, and active as you are with them. (Or if your pet will pick them over you for being away so long!) I will be as, if not more, attentive to your pets while you are away. Like the title says - I’m a realtor! My schedule is open and most of my work can be done through my phone or laptop. I do go to the gym and can adjust my schedule to be morning or evening depending on your needs. Early start for my dogs! 5am walks to start their day along with clean bowls before every feeding! I use a filtered water system for them, but that’s also cleaned weekly. If your pets are like mine then all that hair is a bit messy. So, brushing is a must! They do like to get on the couch so vacuuming is a must too! No kennel for them. Just their own cots. As for bathing and grooming - as needed.
About: With over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds from dogs and cats to small mammals and even primates. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and care that goes far beyond the basics. My background includes working in a veterinary hospital as a vet assistant, where I administered medications and supported both routine and emergency care, as well as working at a busy dog daycare and boarding facility. In addition, I spent over seven years working as an undercover animal cruelty investigator. I share my home with my 12-year-old senior beagle, who I rescued from one of my own investigative cases after he had spent eight years in a breeding facility. Helping him transition into a safe, loving home deepened my understanding of trauma-informed care and strengthened my soft spot for seniors and shy dogs who need extra patience, reassurance, and consistency. You can count on me for reliability, safety, and genuine love for every animal I meet. Caring for animals is part of my everyday life! It keeps me active, grounded, and smiling! Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or quiet check-ins with shy or senior pups. It doesn't feel like work, it's the best part of my day! I have a securely fenced yard where my senior beagle enjoys safe outdoor time, so I understand the importance of a safe, comfortable space for every dog. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow your routines closely! Whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just lots of cuddles. I treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I have always had dogs and puppies throughout my life, and took an interest in animal care around 10 years old. I have experience with training and health-care for all ages. I have had jobs as a kennel attendant, and have volunteered with shelters for play/enrichment, and transportation to special vet trips requiring road trips to Emmett. Studied animal care during college, and have worked in healthcare for over 10 years. I am currently working a full time day job, but open to evenings and weekends. Looking forward to adding some fur baby visits to my routine. In your home, I'm more than happy to follow the rules and expectations. I am happy to play, walk, and make sure your baby feels happy, safe, and comfortable with me.
About: I have tended to dogs and cats for many years. Spending time with a new four legged friend is an honor and a privilege. Looking forward to treating your pet or fur baby like my own. I am available week nights to do walk pets/fur babies. I am also available on Saturdays to tend to the needs of your furry family members. I will establish trust with animals in your homes. I will check on their food and water as needed. I will also provide adequate exercise through walks and play time.

About: Hi, My name is Meah! I’ve spent my entire life around animals as big as horses and as small as crickets. Currently I own and did most of the training for my 2 dogs named Luna (a white husky), and Gus (a chocolate lab/blood hound). I also have Heffley (a leopard gecko). In the past I’ve owned 2 basset hounds and 3 cats. My blood hound has medical needs due to having severe allergies and stomach issues, resulting in me now having experience in medicine administration, medicine injection, and dog first aid. I also spent a long time caring for my senior basset hound (princess) who had severe bone deformities and mobility issues. I’m currently working part time on a schedule that I can move around very easily to be available for your pets needs. Times after 4 pm can be challenging currently but can be worked around with proper notice and communication. :) I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I am attentive, reliable, and committed to providing a safe, stress free experience for both pets and their owners while they are away. I also provide regular photo updates and reports so you can stay informed and have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Hi! My name is Anna, and I have over 3 years of experience working as an assistant manager at a dog boarding facility. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had a strong love and understanding for animals. Through my work, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy and working dogs such as Police K9s. This experience has helped me become confident handling a wide variety of temperaments and behaviors while always prioritizing safety, patience, and consistency. I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they’re in my care, and I’m happy to provide regular photo updates and communication throughout my time with your pet, so you can feel confident they’re being well cared for. A little more about me personally, I moved to Idaho from Washington in May of 2025 and married my college sweetheart in August of 2025. Outside of pet care, I enjoy hunting, camping, hiking, and photography. I also own a 19 year old Quarter Horse named Opie, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pup like they’re one of my own! I currently work a full time job from 8–5, but I’m available for pet care before and after work and make it a priority to fit appointments into my schedule. Outside of work, I spend a lot of my free time caring for my own animals, including my dogs and horse, Opie! Safety is my highest priority, given my experience at a dog boarding facility I know the best ways not only to keep your dog safe and healthy, but happy as well!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Star
Elisabeth went above and beyond caring for our Daisy! We felt completely confident and at ease leaving her in Elisabeth’s care. She was attentive, caring, and made sure Daisy was happy and comfortable the entire time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would absolutely trust Elisabeth with Daisy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly treat their pet like family! ❤️

Aimee and her son Jacob took very good care of my dog Daisy. It was a bonus that they live in my neighborhood. They followed all my care instructions. I really appreciated them coming over for a meet and greet beforehand and the updates with photos of the drop in visits. Most importantly, Daisy seemed happy and looked well when we returned home. We will definitely use their service again!

Kimberly was amazing. Dropped in morning and evening to feed/play with our dogs while we were out of town. Kept us updated with photos and via text message. I seriously have no faults on Kimberly and her service. She managed 4 complex doggos - one has cancer, one has wobblers syndrome, one is a puppy, and the other being the dominant leader of the pack. Highly recommend Kimberly!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Star stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Star choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Star with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
