“I was very satisfied with Lindsey and Leland taking care of my dog. I received daily updates and felt my pooch was comfortable and safe. I highly recommend Lindsey and Leland for your boarding needs.”
“Mary was absolutely wonderful to book with. She got us in last minute, was very responsive, and gave lots of updates with pictures. She even met us closer for drop off, as she was in the area.Our dogs were in good hands. 10/10 recommend!”
“Erika was great communicating with us before booking and answering questions. I’m sure my puppy had a great time with her and her dogs. Erika sent pictures while my puppy was at her house and contacted me with questions. We will definitely use her services again when visiting Post Falls, ID.”
“Rebecca continually provides excellent care for our energetic dog Odin. She sends daily pictures and Odin always comes home exhausted from playing all day. We highly recommend Rebecca for all of your dog needs! Thank you!”
“We would not hesitate to have our dog Benji stay with Morgan, Tyler, and family again in the future! We received pictures and an update on how he was doing while we were away and Benji appeared very happy and well cared for when we returned. We appreciate that he was in a home setting and it sounds like he received plenty of attention from the family and had lots of fun with their dogs as well. Thank you!”
“Kym was great. She kept our little pups safe and happy and entertained in her home and well fenced yard. She also sent updates daily. We had never used a pet sitter we didn't know before, so it was a little nerve wracking to think about. However, Kym made us feel very confident about the experience and we really appreciated the peace of mind while on our trip. Thank you, Kym!”
About: 🐾 Double the Love, Double the Care: Active, Experienced Family Ready to Pamper Your Pup! Hi there, fellow dog lovers! If you are looking for a pet-sitting team that will treat your four-legged family member like royalty, you’ve found us. I’m a lifelong dog devotee, and I am completely obsessed with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. What truly sets us apart as Rover sitters is that your dog gets a full family experience with round-the-clock attention, endless cuddles, and an ultra-active lifestyle tailored exactly to their energy levels. Here is what makes our home the ultimate vacation spot for your pup: • Over a Decade of Hands-On Experience: My journey started with my own German Shepherd, Misty, whom I raised and loved from birth until she passed at 12 years old. Having a large breed from puppyhood through her golden senior years gave me deep, firsthand knowledge of puppy training boundaries and the gentle, attentive senior care needed for aging joints and medication schedules. • The Dynamic Duo Effect: Because my 12-year-old and I work as a team, your dog will never feel lonely. We are regular "foster mamas" and the go-to dog sitters for all our friends' pets. We know how to read dog body language, respect their boundaries, and shower them with the exact type of affection they prefer in our clean and smoke free home. • Active Adventures & Infinite Cuddles: We love to stay moving! Whether your dog thrives on long, energetic walks and playing fetch or prefers a slow, breezy stroll around the neighborhood, we adapt to them. • The Ultimate Couch Companions: Once the energy is burned off, we are big believers in couch cuddles. If your dog is used to sleeping at the foot of the bed or getting belly rubs, they will get a 5-star cuddle experience here. We know how hard it is to leave your baby behind, which is why we commit to sending you frequent photo and video updates. We can't wait to welcome your pup into our pack! As a stay-at-home mama, your pup becomes a seamless part of our daily routine and is rarely left alone! While I am home most days and nights to provide constant love, I do have occasional brief outings for errands or family activities. Here is how we seamlessly blend pet care into our routine: • Constant Companionship: Because I am home the vast majority of the day, your dog gets consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, and endless love from my 12-year-old and me. • On-the-Go Buddy: For my brief outings, I love to bring your pup along with me whenever possible! If they enjoy car rides and running errands, they will get to be my little sidekick. • Safe & Brief Alone Time: If an outing isn't dog-friendly, their alone time will be kept very short. We will ensure they are perfectly safe, comfortable, and settled before we step out. • Tailored Routines: We easily map our day around your dog's regular schedule for feeding, medications, and walks, ensuring their routine stays exactly as it is at home. Your little one will get the perfect mix of active family life, fun outings, and cozy couch time! We offer a safe, pristine, and entirely dog-focused environment where your pup gets 100% of our attention! Because we currently do not have any pets of our own, your dog won't have to share the spotlight or deal with the stress of strange animals—our home belongs entirely to them during their stay. Here is exactly how we care for your little one in our home: • A Clean, Smoke-Free Space: Our home is entirely non-smoking, tidy, and safely dog-proofed. Your pup will have plenty of clean, comfortable spaces to relax, stretch out, and feel right at home. • Our Peaceful End-Unit & "Yard" Space: We live in a quiet end unit of a beautiful new complex. Because we are right next to a gorgeous green space, it feels just like having our very own yard for quick, easy, and safe potty breaks! • A Safe Community with Friendly Neighbors: There are no random strangers around here. Our complex is a tight-knit community filled with friendly neighbors and sweet local dogs who love to pass by for happy tail wags, gentle hugs, and enthusiastic slobber kisses. • Tons of Entertainment & Play: We are fully stocked with a variety of fun toys for fetching, chewing, and mental stimulation. Playtime is a huge event in our house, and my 12-year-old and I love getting on the floor to engage with them. • Epic Walks Near DOMA, Atlas Park, & the River: We are incredibly spoiled by our location! We are just a few blocks from the river, DOMA, and the beautiful trails and water at Atlas Park. We tailor our walks to your dog's specific energy level—whether they want a slow, sniff-heavy stroll by the water or a brisk, energetic park adventure. • A Safe & Gentle Environment: With just myself and my child, our home is a peaceful, predictable environment. We emphasize gentle handling, respecting boundaries, and creating a stress-free "home away from home" experience.
“Our dog recently spent a week with Crystal and her family, where Gus was well cared for, walked regularly, and was able to play with other dogs. Crystal was great to work with and very responsive along the entire way. Thank you!”
About: I have been around animals since I was a baby, I have 19 years of pet experience. We have a small farm. I’ve also helped my mom on rover for the past few months. I am currently helping my mother with Rover so my schedule is pretty flexible. When you book with either of us you will receive 3 adults giving your babies the upmost care and respect. I have a fenced 3 acre yard and 3 friendly dogs to keep your babies company. I have crates and means of separation if that is necessary. We treat our company like family, they are allowed on furniture and able to sleep with us unless told otherwise.
“Becky and her husband were so kind! My pups were right at home with her, they weren’t the slightest bit stressed. I had peace of mind during my trip knowing they were in a loving environment with lots of attention. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”
“Katie was incredible! We had a flight cancellation and she was able to watch our dog for another day - I don't know what we would've done! She also administered the rest of our dog's medication and now she's back to normal! Thank you Katie!!!!!”
“Heidi and her family did a fantastic job of watching our Dog Hazy over the week of Thanksgiving. We have a high energy 2 year old lab. She took the time to throw a ball for her daily and really made her feel part of the family. We have never had anyone watch our dog overnight and for a few days like this before. This was a great option and we could really see that our dog was treated well and I will definitely have Heidi and family watch Hazy again when we travel.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Eileen to watch Kona, our 9 lb Shih Tzu. Eileen watched Kona for 4 days. Our communication started with texting, then we scheduled a meet and greet. She has a wonderful home, enclosed yard and porch which Kona took to immediately. When we dropped Kona off for our trip, she immediately went to the enclosed porch to look for any birds or squirrels that might have been nearby. Needless to say, there was no separation anxiety! Eileen sent us pictures in the morning and evening along with updates on how Kona was doing. We had complete peach of mind which allowed us to enjoy our trip. When we picked Kona up, she was happy and healthy! Eileen is very caring and it is obvious she loves what she does. She treated Kona as her own and we will definitely have her watch Kona again!”
“Mandy was able to help out very last-minute to watch Lucky and I am SO grateful that she was able to care for him because she was wonderful! She was kind, communicative, and treated Lucky like one of her own. She even kept me updated with cute pictures! Lucky warmed up to her and her sweet pups, quickly. I would absolutely recommend Mandy to anyone looking for a dog-sitter and would book with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Mandy!”
About: My childhood was shared with dogs of all kinds! Growing up we housed 5+ dogs at any given time. For 8 years of my life (between 13-21 years old) we were an active foster family. Successfully caring and training over 50 dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! While I have the most experience with small breeds, I am comfortable with all dogs. - I have experience with dogs ranging from newborn to senior! I have cared for all types of breeds, including energetic, combative, playful, and vocal. - I understand not all dogs are on their perfect behavior! I have dealt with food aggression, territorial, and disobedient tendencies. This does not bother me; patience is key! - I have LOTS of experience with both deaf and blind dogs. I currently work part-time. Although my schedule is not always consistent, I am willing to go the extra mile to make sure your dog is given the best care possible. I live in an apartment near the centennial trail! I am within a mile of multiple dog parks. Although I do not personally have a backyard, the apartment is very dog-friendly.
“She’s amazing, sends fun photos and Rosey comes home tired and calm! It’s nice to be on vacation and not worry about your pet. Jessica is our main girl now and are booking our 3rd visit with her in December”
“Teri is the best!! She provided the best care and happy times for our Tucker. Teri took lots of pictures, keeping us well informed on what was happening with our dog. Thank you so much! You are our go to for dog sitting!”
“Wade is the consummate lover of dogs and I’m glad my dog gets to be the recipient of his love and care. I can’t say enough good things about Wade and his communication with me and commitment to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of Lola!! Thank you Wade!”
“Cheryl was amazing and was flexible for our unexpected trip in Spokane. Juniper had amazing time at Cheryl's with other wonder doggos! She sent lots of pics and updates. Juniper came home happy and tired after fun with friends. Would definitely recommend!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Sturgeon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sturgeon home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Sturgeon.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sturgeon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
You and your Sturgeon sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ID ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
