“Michelle & Robert were great! This was our second time leaving Koda with them. I could tell Koda got lots of love and was able to run around with his new furry friends. He even said his goodbyes before leaving and took such a long nap upon arriving home. He was a happy boy!”
“This is our second time booking with them for our newest member of the family. They are always quick to respond and most likely importantly they have patience with our dogs . Would definitely book more in the future and I would recommend them to anyone else .”
“Kerry was absolutely amazing with my sweet boy, Roadie! 🐾❤️ She took such great care of him and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Roadie was happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved while he was with her. I’m extremely grateful she was willing to take care of him, especially on short notice. I would 100% trust Kerry with Roadie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like her own. Thank you so much, Kerry!”
“She and her family took great care of our Daisy! They have a nice home with a fenced yard for playtime. Daisy clearly had the time of her life, and I got at least one picture a day of her antics! Definitely will book again!”
“Finn had such a fun time with Christopher! He played so hard that when I picked him up he just snuggled and napped the afternoon away. I loved all the pictures I got everyday as well! Would definitely rebook with Christopher!”
“Denise was super nice to our dogs and treated them very well! She did everything we asked her to do. Her house was really nice and she had a big yard. We had a delay on our flight wich of set everything for picking them up, and Denise was really kind about that and ended up watching them for an extra hour Wich was really really nice of her! The only thing that wasn’t 10/10 was that I had to ask for updates rather than her just sending them. The updates were very short. And the pictures were few. I’m not complaining.. I’m just saying that’s something that could be better! But I would use her again for sure! Her and her kids were all very sweet!”
“I asked Nicole to watch my dog on super short notice and she was super flexible when I needed to adjust my coming and going times. She seemed to really love and care about dogs!”
“Susan was incredibly sweet and accommodating with our pup! He was so well cared for, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. She has a wonderful, secure yard, and her dogs were friendly and well behaved. I would absolutely recommend booking with Susan and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Melissa is very kind and responsible. She was thorough in caring for my pup. I had. I concern of him being neglected and to the contrary, I think he had the time of his life and came home exhausted from all the fun. I’m very thankful to have found Melissa and family as a warm, loving home away from home for our corgi.”
“Harry had so much fun playing at Bonnie’s house! We received cute pics and videos during his stay. Harry has been sleeping all afternoon since we got home. He had a blast with his friends!”
“Alecia and Terry were super awesome! They took wonderful care of our two fur babies, they sent daily updates and photos, which made my day! My two are on special diet which require a little more prep, Alecia did great with providing my two with what they needed, and in giving extra attention too! We will defy look to book with Alecia and Terry again in the future!”
“Jill is truly the best of the best! Jill requested a meet and greet with her pups and all worked out so this was the first doggy boarding experience with her of three days while I traveled out of state. Jill’s property is large and beautiful, she has BLM land to play and exercise behind her house and two adorable dogs that my beloved Dooku could have fun and exercise with. Jill is very friendly, outgoing, patient and very communicative. Jill and her dogs immediately greeted Dooku with affection from the onset and I felt at ease knowing he was in good hands while traveling. When I returned home, Dooku was happy and I could tell he had a great time…first time he ever fell asleep upon coming home. 👏👏🐕🦺🐾 Jill is truly special and genuine with your lil critters and I highly recommend Jill! Thanks again Jill…You’re Bomb! 💕”
“Nalleli was amazing! She took very good care of Zara while we were away on a trip to Paris. She had great communication and let us come meet her dog Jack the week prior to leaving, just to make sure Zara was comfortable. Nalleli also sent pictures and video of Zara to us while we were gone. I would highly recommend her and will be taking Zara back when we need someone to watch her.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving our puppy Waffles with Vanessa! She gave me daily pictures and updates, and waffles enjoyed playing with her pug. We will definitely be using Vanessa again!”
“We absolutely love Jan!! She took care of our two boys, Fletcher and Benny for a week. She sent us daily updates on how they are doing. Our yellow lab has some separation anxiety and our black/white lab mix is a little skittish. Auntie Jan took care of them and was very patient with them. She made sure they were having a vacation too! Her property is amazing! Our dogs love to run around. We do not have space for them to run as much as at Auntie Jan’s place. The boys didn’t want to leave with all the space, dog pool, dog treats and love by Auntie Jan. We will definitely ask her to watch our dogs again!”
“Aimee and Derek were great with my slightly nervous dog; they sent pictures everyday and were warm and friendly, perfect to keep her calm. Great location for us and easy to do drop off/pick up. Would recommend and use again!”

She took excellent care of her, was attentive and loving, and clearly has a natural way with animals.

I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”

“My puppies were so excited to go see Colby and David for the day! They remembered them and their house from the meet and greet the week before, and squealed with delight as we got to their yard. Diggs got to play with the water hose which is his favorite thing! And Lilly got to make a new friend. When we picked them up, both dogs were happy and told us they loved their playtime. I’m very grateful for Colby and David and the care they showed our puppies.”
“What a great experience for both me and Blu! I contacted Dave hours before needing an all-day sitter and he graciously accepted. Blu had a great time and I received pictures during the day of all the fun she was having! Will definitely use this sitter again!”
“Jessica was amazing with my five month old puppy Apollo! She played his favorite game with him. And took him out for his potty breaks. He was exhausted after. So I think that is a sign he had a great time! She was also super flexible with me and worked with me for pick up and drop off times that worked for me so I could do my interview and get back on the road to make it home on time!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 21 years, and I’ve yet to meet one I didn’t want to be friends with. From energetic puppies who think socks are toys to sweet senior dogs who prefer naps over zoomies, I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I provide reliable, loving care that includes walks, feeding, playtime, cleanup, cuddles (if approved by your pup, of course!), and basic medications when needed. I know leaving your furry family member behind can be stressful, so I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles—not just a quick check-in! I do run the occasional errand, but your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first. I’ll make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and updates for you, because I know you’re probably missing them as much as they’re missing you. 🐾 Your pup can expect a fenced yard, a toy box that’s always open for business, plenty of belly rubs, fresh food and water, and two energetic dogs who are usually happy to welcome a new playmate. Safety comes first, fun is a close second, and your furry family member will be treated like one of my own.

“Well all I can say is Jill is a godsend! I was referred to her by some neighbors in my community. My dog is a rescue and doesn’t have very much confidence or socialization . She said that was fine and she would work with him. Jill is very calm and definitely knows what she is truth dogs. She has a great fenced in backyard where he can run a play. Jill has two dogs of her own that Odin got a long with pretty darn quick. I would recommend Jill 100%. I’m so happy I found her ❤️”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I can care for puppies all the way to senior dogs. I can administer meds. Can do pregnant dogs and check on newborn puppies if your dog just had a litter as well. I have a dog myself and she is my world. Everyone in my family has dogs and I help them as well with their work schedules. My dog is still a pup and still going through training so I’m working with her all the time. I have a pup of my own who loves other dogs and it would be so much fun to watch them play together. They could play and make it a lot easier for when you come home.
About: I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I am a true dog person through and through. I have four of my own that I care for as they are like my children. I currently work full time but would like to hangout with some fluffy friends on the side whenever I can. I am able to come take dogs for a walk after work or have them stay with me during my work day since I work from home as long as they are friendly with other dogs. My dogs are all up to date of vaccines as well. The weekends I usually am pretty open for drop by visits and dog walks. I have a fenced in yard so if I did have a dog stay with me during the day I work from home and have a fenced back yard with a dog door. If visiting a dogs home I would respect and follow their wishes to help take care and maintain their dogs needs.
About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life — from dogs and cats to smaller pets like birds. Animals have always been a huge part of my world, and I can’t imagine life without them. I enjoy training my own dog and use positive reinforcement to help build trust and good habits. I’m comfortable working with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to calm seniors — and I always tailor care to meet their individual needs. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, exercise, and potty breaks. I’m also experienced with administering medication (oral, topical, or drops) and following special routines, feeding schedules, or dietary needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal like family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care — just like they would at home. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send photo or video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Hi! I’m Michelle — a lifelong animal lover who works from home, so I’m with my dog (and yours!) all day. I love spending time outdoors hiking, paddleboarding, and going on walks. I also attend dog training classes a few times a week, which helps me stay in tune with canine behavior and care. Your pets will get plenty of attention, love, and company while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I work from home full-time, so pets in my care are never left alone for long periods. My dog stays in my office with me during the day, and your dog is welcome to join us — or enjoy their own quiet space if they prefer. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and respectful of every pet owner’s home and routine. I follow all care instructions closely to ensure consistency, safety, and peace of mind. My reputation and your trust mean a great deal to me, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own dog.
About: I have been in the pet care business for 10 years. When I first started working with dogs, I assisted dog walkers that had their own established dog walking businesses. The walkers I worked for provided off leash pack walk adventures! I assisted a number of walkers with their packs of dogs. I learned a lot by assisting different walkers as I got exposed to different methods and strategies of managing the dogs as well as gained experience handling different breeds! It was the most fun I ever had at a job! I decided to get certified in hopes that I could possibly start my own business one day! Boy was I glad I did! The glorious day fell upon me when a walker that I was working for told me that a friend of theirs was selling their business! I was enthralled and decided to take a leap of faith! I bought it from her! I got to finally start my own business! What an amazing experience! I grew steadily and as I grew, I started to add other services to my business. I started to provide in home pet care at my clients' homes. This was such fun because I always felt like I was going on staycation! When I finally got a living situation where I could have pets at my place, I started offering boarding services! This was the ideal situation for all! I got to have groups of dogs over at my place vs. having to be limited to just a dog or two depending on the house I was sitting at! It was so much more fun when the pups had other friends to play with when their owners had to leave them! I was in business for myself for 8 years! This all came to end when I decided to move to Idaho! But I miss being with all the doggos so much so I decided why not try to offer my services here so I can meet some great pups of the gem state! I have experience working with all sizes, a wide variety of breeds, dog that suffer from separation anxiety, senior dogs and puppies! I have worked with balance trainers and positive reinforcement trainers. I have 2 mentors who were in the business for 20+ years that have provided me with a plethora of training and education regarding dog psychology and behavior modification so you can rest assured that I will provide high quality care in a very comfortable home setting where your pup will be cared for as if they were my very own Stormy girl! Yes! I have my very own dog and her name is Stormy! She is a king shepherd who has been grown up walking in off leash pack walks since she was old enough to do so! She does great with all dogs but she especially loves the puppies! Let us know if you are interested in possibly coming over to our place for some fun! We can set up some meet times beforehand to make sure a sleep over would be a good fit! Stormy and I are looking forward to meeting all the gem pups of the beautiful gem state! I work from home, so I am able to stay with your pups pretty much the whole time while they are here! I am able to take dogs 7 days a week! I have a fenced backyard and of course I have my pup who can provide play and entertainment in addition to the love and care I will be providing!

I’d love to take care of your animals in exchange for the happiness I’ll get from walking and interacting with them! I have pretty open availability at the moment. I can pop in a couple times during the week or stay longer if needed. I do have animals at home so extended days will need to be talked about. I have a large yard that I can take your dog out to play in! There is also a park with a bunch of trails nearby!
About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for years. As well as house sat for a friend who owns a farm, caring for her numerous animals. Hi! I currently work at 9 AM to 5 PM job and can make it home around 12 PM to 1 PM for a lunch break to take the dog to the bathroom and/or a walk. I am typically have more availability on Fridays, as I work remotely periodically. This would make it so the pet will go 4 hours between potty breaks Monday-Thursday if a potty break midday is needed. I have full availability on the weekends.

About: Hi! I’m 26, a Boise State graduate and former Honors College student, and I’m currently working toward my master’s degree. I also work at St. Luke’s three days a week, which gives me a really flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and pet sitting. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience with pets that have very different personalities and needs. I grew up with a cat, lived with a very reactive Pit Bull in college, and now have a 6-month-old Lab puppy of my own. Because of that, I’m comfortable with everything from puppy energy and basic training to dogs that need a little more patience, structure, and awareness of their surroundings. Having my own puppy has definitely reminded me how much work goes into raising a young dog! I’m very used to potty schedules, frequent walks, reinforcing good habits, keeping puppies entertained, and making sure they don’t get into absolutely everything they can find. I’m extremely responsible, organized, and dependable, but I’m also the kind of person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being cared for by someone who will pay attention to their routine, personality, safety, and all the little details you give me. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a reactive dog who needs some extra patience, or a cat who prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and treat them like one of my own. I work 3 days a week and very rarely on weekends so I am very flexible and have a really easy ability to move my schedule around to come see your pet. I am very good at following directions and take pet safety very seriously. I am sure I accommodate your dog whether that means you have a large backyard or you live in a small apartment and the dog is crate trained.

“Denise was super nice to our dogs and treated them very well! She did everything we asked her to do. Her house was really nice and she had a big yard. We had a delay on our flight wich of set everything for picking them up, and Denise was really kind about that and ended up watching them for an extra hour Wich was really really nice of her! The only thing that wasn’t 10/10 was that I had to ask for updates rather than her just sending them. The updates were very short. And the pictures were few. I’m not complaining.. I’m just saying that’s something that could be better! But I would use her again for sure! Her and her kids were all very sweet!”
“I asked Nicole to watch my dog on super short notice and she was super flexible when I needed to adjust my coming and going times. She seemed to really love and care about dogs!”
“Susan was incredibly sweet and accommodating with our pup! He was so well cared for, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. She has a wonderful, secure yard, and her dogs were friendly and well behaved. I would absolutely recommend booking with Susan and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Harry had so much fun playing at Bonnie’s house! We received cute pics and videos during his stay. Harry has been sleeping all afternoon since we got home. He had a blast with his friends!”
“Jill is truly the best of the best! Jill requested a meet and greet with her pups and all worked out so this was the first doggy boarding experience with her of three days while I traveled out of state. Jill’s property is large and beautiful, she has BLM land to play and exercise behind her house and two adorable dogs that my beloved Dooku could have fun and exercise with. Jill is very friendly, outgoing, patient and very communicative. Jill and her dogs immediately greeted Dooku with affection from the onset and I felt at ease knowing he was in good hands while traveling. When I returned home, Dooku was happy and I could tell he had a great time…first time he ever fell asleep upon coming home. 👏👏🐕🦺🐾 Jill is truly special and genuine with your lil critters and I highly recommend Jill! Thanks again Jill…You’re Bomb! 💕”
“I felt so comfortable leaving our puppy Waffles with Vanessa! She gave me daily pictures and updates, and waffles enjoyed playing with her pug. We will definitely be using Vanessa again!”
“We absolutely love Jan!! She took care of our two boys, Fletcher and Benny for a week. She sent us daily updates on how they are doing. Our yellow lab has some separation anxiety and our black/white lab mix is a little skittish. Auntie Jan took care of them and was very patient with them. She made sure they were having a vacation too! Her property is amazing! Our dogs love to run around. We do not have space for them to run as much as at Auntie Jan’s place. The boys didn’t want to leave with all the space, dog pool, dog treats and love by Auntie Jan. We will definitely ask her to watch our dogs again!”
“Aimee and Derek were great with my slightly nervous dog; they sent pictures everyday and were warm and friendly, perfect to keep her calm. Great location for us and easy to do drop off/pick up. Would recommend and use again!”
“Our dog Ruby had a great time staying with Paula for several days while we went to the coast. Ruby got lots of loves and attention just like she was their own. She was excellent with communication and we got lots of pictures which were wonderful to see while we were gone. Paula took excellent care of our spoiled Ruby girl!”
“We left our labrador retriever puppy with Allison and her family, and we couldn't be happier with how they took care of her! Allison sent updates and pictures daily. We felt very comfortable with how she and her family cared for our puppy. We appreciated how she and her family spent quality time with our pup. We will be using Allison in the future and would recommend her services to anyone who needs a great, caring pet sitter.”
