“Sara is a total pro. A testament to Rover. We could tell she loves animals and takes this seriously. Great communication, flexibility, and follow-through. Our puppy was searching the house for her last night!”
“Aurey was awesome with Murphy. She was super reliable, kept me in the loop with updates, and I could tell she really cared. Murphy’s usually a little standoffish but he seemed totally at ease. It’s such a relief to have someone I trust, I’ll definitely be reaching out again.”
“Thank you so much Elizabeth and family! You gave Nova a great time which let us feel super comfortable taking this trip. Anyone would be lucky to have you watch their furry friends.”
“Kelcy & Keenan were just terrific to work with. I could tell immediately they love all critters & would take good care of my two kitties. They also brought in mail, watered a few potted plants, filled a bird feeder and fed the little goslings cracked corn… which I didn’t expect. All at no extra charge! There is no doubt I will call on them again!”
About: From farm to in-home caring for animals is the key to my heart and happiness. I am honored by their love and presence and whole heartedly believe they need the same. I have the privilege of working part time for myself which gives me the freedom and flexibility to care for your furry family members while you’re away. Feeding at times given, walks or playing. Snuggles or rest. If there are medical needs to be met then giving appropriate treatment and care to guarantee health and wellbeing.
“This was my second time having Kristi look after my large, senior Malamute and she did a fantastic job as always. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for her help again the next time I need a sitter!”
“Meredith is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. You could not ask for more. Very responsive, goes above and beyond what’s needed, has a real feeling for what your pet needs. Outstanding. I’m so grateful.”
About: I am looking to get outside on walks as often as possible and I would love to take your pup with me! I moved here from Alaska a few years ago. I was the go-to dog sitter for many friends there year after year. I grew up with dogs, cats, turtles, and rabbits. I have kept and loved pets for my entire life. In 2011, I got my first rescue dog (as an adult). She was amazing and lived to be almost 15- years-old. She taught me a lot. We worked through aggression, and medical issues and ultimately geriatric care. Every dog has their own personality and things that make them happy or content and I am happy to do whatever I can to keep them comfortable, exercised, and content while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule. I am a bookkeeper and work from home/remotely. I have plenty of time to make sure your pets get quality time while I’m working and the flexibility of getting them out on walks as needed. I am happy to make your pet's day as normal as possible at their own home. I would love to know what that entails by meeting up before the overnight stay so that I can really get a sense for what your pet's needs are.
About: Hi there, fellow dog lover! I’m Cynthia, and I’m so glad you stopped by... I live in the beautiful North End of Boise and have been pet sitting for years, caring for everything from high-energy pups to wise old senior dogs and plenty of cats, and occasionally horses, and small animals too! I grew up around Saint Bernards, so I’ve been wrangling big dogs since I could walk. Our house was kind of a magnet for animals in need....strays, rescues, you name it. We never turned them away and either kept them or helped find them forever homes with family and friends. That experience shaped how I care for animals today...patient, flexible, and with a lot of heart. I’m comfortable with pups of all ages and temperaments, whether they’re anxious zoomers or mellow seniors who just want a calm presence and some TLC. Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, you name it. Also, please ask me anything if you can't find it in my profile! I'm happy to discuss extra services that you or your pet needs to feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away! I'm a hiker, mountain biker, and love long walks! I am recently retired early from the tech industry and now have time to give back to my community and neighbors! I'm available 7 days a week, and for overnights if needed and if the fit is right! Contact me anytime, and we can coordinate something that works, whether it's just hanging out with your pet or having a fun adventure! I've lived a lifetime with pets and rescued animals, so for me they are family. I treat all living things with respect, understanding, and care. I'm always thinking ahead of potential scenarios when planning any outings, making sure I'm prepared with extra leashes, treats, and/or a strong understanding of an area and what to expect.
“Alinda was very flexible for scheduling the meet and greet. She was responsive and sent messages and pictures for each drop in appointment. I recommend her.”
“Brooke is amazing! Our pets were loved on and spoiled. Brooke sent pictures of them that was so thoughtful and comforting. We highly recommend her and will request her again!”
“Adrianna is amazing! She always sends updates and pictures of my cat while she checks up on her- would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was little. I’ve had many breeds ranging from a tiny chihuahua/yorkie to an English Mastiff to labs and vizsla hunting dogs. Your dog will be treated like family. Consider this your dog’s home away from home. I work part time during the week. I’m gone from noon to 1pm then 2 to 3pm Monday, Tuesday and Friday. Wednesdays and Thursdays I’m gone from noon to 1pm. Other than that I’m available for all other doggy needs. While I’m gone my husband is home. So no one is far from home. I have a fully fenced one acre yard. I use the Chuck it several times a day for exercising our dogs. I have a 6 year old goldendoodle (60lbs) and 1 year old vizsla (34lbs). They are enormously friendly and happy to share their toys and time.
“Stephani was fantastic! We were able to book on short notice over the holidays. She worked with our schedule. She not only checked in our our kitties everyday but she sent snaps to both my roommate and I on request so we could see our fur babies in real time. On top of that, she kept close tabs on one of our cats that started getting sick when we left. She even took him to the vet and gave him meds throughout the rest of the stay. She was friendly, trustworthy, flexible, and went above and beyond for our pets! I would 100% book again and recommend Stephani to others!”

Tiara went above and beyond for us and our cat! In addition to providing our cat with care and attention, she helped us deal with an unexpected food delivery and she was even able to add on another last minute visit when we had to extend our trip because of flight delays. Reliable may be an understatement 🙂
Kalli was a great sitter for our 15-yr.old cat! She double-checked on dosage for one of his medications, and also followed up to be sure we had arrived home, offering to feed our cat again if we hadn't made it back as planned. Also, our cat still hangs out by the front door in hopes that she will come by and give him some cuddles!
Rylee was absolutely wonderful taking care of our cat, Lola, while we were out of town! She sent pictures every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was always very prompt and friendly when responding to messages. Most importantly, she was incredibly kind and attentive to our sweet Lola. We could tell Lola was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Rylee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Amelia was so great with Sleepy Kitty! I consistently received updates and photos of my girl during visits. She made sure to come by beforehand and get to meet me and Sleepy, and see where her food, litter, and treats were prior to sitting. All litter was taken outside and she cleaned up Sleepy’s accident for me. Amelia made sure my needy Sleepy Kitty got all the snuggles she wanted! Plus, she helped lug in my million packages from Amazon all week haha! Looking forward to booking with Amelia again in the future, would absolutely recommend!
Niki is comfortable and familiar with dogs which was great as our dog is an anxious guy. She was very sensitive to this and knows a lot about dogs like him and it showed. She cares about the animal she's sitting as well as their hoomans concerns. Good experience.
