“Amy was very kind with my 13-year old dog sending me multiple pictures with details of his daily activities. I appreciated that she took him for regular walks.

“Ashley was so good with Sadie, she gave us regular updates and took her for walks! Sadie seemed to enjoy her time at Ashley’s house with her family.”

“This was our first time leaving our GSD with Elise. We were very pleased with her care for him, her responsiveness to us and the updates she provided. She was also very flexible when our travel plans changed. We will definitely ask her to keep Enzo again. Thanks Elise”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Sparky on this booking, and for taking care of his sister and brother, Buddy and Cooper, on past trips. We appreciate you both soooo much! When we get our new little girl (tentatively named Cooper Deux) we’ll introduce you! Thanks again, so much!!!”
“My dog Goose had a blast and seemed a little bummed when his stay was over. He got good care, good company, and plenty of space to get out his energy. They were flexible with me, responded quickly, and sent multiple reassuring updates! 10/10 from myself and my boy!”
“I booked Tasha for my dog Milo and had a great experience! You can tell Tasha cares for her clients (and their owners). I got many updates thoroughout the day including pictures! I would definitely use Tasha again. I especially loved the report card after we got back from our trip. It’s nice to know that I didn’t have to worry about Milo during our vacation. He was well taken care of, highly recommend Tasha.”

“Adrianna took such amazing care of our cats! Especially one who was very sick. She made sure the cat was comfortable and that her medication was given on time. It was clear that she cared about the comfort and pain that my cat was in. She was also incredibly flexible and kind about the whole situation, despite how quickly it all happened. I cannot recommend her enough, by far the BEST pet sitter I have ever had!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for friends and family members for over 10 years. I was involved in raising animals with 4H and FFA during my childhood. I have primarily taken care of dogs and cats. I look forward to taking care of your furry family members while you’re hopefully enjoying your time away from home!
About: I have always been a cat person. Since I was a babe. Since our first family cats. The Gray one that we named 'Smog' used to try to lick my face! Even though we grew up with mostly outdoor/indoor cats and I have even befriended some semi-feral 'barn cats'. When I got *my* cat, I was very slow to begin to let her outside freely. I understand that some cats are better suited to being indoor only cats. I know some of the 'tricks' to making good friends with cats, and one is just for them to see you enough times in a calm state that they feel they can trust you. I deeply care about helping cats feel safe and nurtured. Once I know their personality, I am really good at knowing if something different or difficult is going on with them. I have made some really beautiful connections with different cats and seen amazing abilities from them when befriending new people.
About: I've had experience caring for cats of many temperaments over the course of my life. My own cat, Dave Meowthews, was brought to me by the Cat Distribution System, and we have been besties for 12 years. I am comfortable with both kittens and senior cats, and have experience administering medications. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and a clear communicator. I'm here to be your cat's stand-in best friend when work, travel, or life keep you busy. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends!
“Amy did a great job with my kitties! She sent regular updates and both cats seemed to love her. They were happy and healthy when I arrived back home. Will rebook in the future!”
“Phedre is amazing! She is very professional and took great care of my two cats. I gave her a list of instructions that she followed exactly. She sent multiple updates and pictures! I highly recommend using her. I know I will be!”
About: I grew up with cats, so I've always understood their quiet, warm presence just as much as their sneaky, sassy side. Whether it's a nap in a sunbeam or a surprise ambush from behind the couch, I'm here for all of it. My goal is simple: make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away.
“Liz and Anna were great with my pups while I was away for a few days. They had great communication and provided updates and photos which helped me be able to enjoy my time away without anxiety and worry. I highly recommend them.”
“Kelsey was so great with my kitty. She took such good care of her and spent much quality time with her such that when I got back it was like I never left. Totally recommend her services.”
“Thank you very much for caring for Gracie and Fernando❗️i’ve been sick and that’s why I haven’t been in touch. Will be calling on you in future. All the best. Anne and Peter”

“Phedre has been amazing with our dog Millie. She’s done some drop in visits for us and watched her for the day currently and I feel so at peace knowing my dogs being taken care of so amazingly. We will absolutely be useing her again”
“Amy was the best! Not only did she take such great care of my dog, she also went above and beyond to allow me to drop off a little early and pick up a little late. 10/10 experience with her!!”
“Aura had an AMAZING time with Sarah and her family. Aura came home happy and tired which for a mini Aussie is quite an accomplishment! I hope to have Aura play with Sarah again.”
“Elise is an amazing person! She was there when we needed her for our fur baby! She made our doggy feel so comfortable with her and her family. I really appreciate her for working with us.”
“Concetta is great, she very nice and sweet with my pup. I book a last minute care with her and she accommodate us. She adjusted her schedule to care for my pup. She very reliable, I will definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you!”
“Where to begin... Sam was so accommodating for so many reasons. He allowed us to drop Sunny off bright and early in the morning before the other dogs arrived to make sure he felt comfortable! We got Sunny from the shelter and before that he was a stray, so we do not know what he has been through but he definitely has his guard up when it comes to other dogs. Sam was so patient with Sunny and got Sunny to SAFELY interact with other dogs! We were so happy that we were crying! Please book any service here, you will not regret it. This has changed our dogs life and we hope to be a normal part of the doggy day care! Sam has tons of knowledge and training and is great with all types of dogs. Our boy felt right at home and was so worn out when we got back home! Sam will make sure that everyone is safe and that everyone feels like they are at home! We will definitely return!”
“Amber was amazing! Made my dog feel more comfortable being babysat than he has by anyone else & I've tried a lot of people. My doodle has separation anxiety pretty severely, & with Amber & her doodle Jasper, he wasn't anxious at all & ate really well while he was at their house (which wasn't expected). Definitely would recommend.”
About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’m Kayla, a lifelong animal lover with a big heart for animals. From energetic puppies to mellow seniors, I’ve cared for pets of all personalities and needs — and I treat every one of them like my own. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, medication, or just a little extra TLC, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique routine and personality. You can count on me for: ✨ Reliable, on-time visits 🐶 Lots of love, attention & play 🐾 Updates with photos and messages 🐕 Experience with dogs, cats, and small animals Your pets deserve more than just basic care — they deserve comfort, companionship, and someone who genuinely enjoys being with them. That’s exactly what I provide. Let’s make sure your best friend gets the care (and cuddles) they deserve while you’re away! 💛 I currently work from home during the week and part time at a spa on the weekends. I have tons of free time and flexibility with my schedule. I have a full chain link fenced yard with doggy door access to the house. I also have the space to be able to accommodate crates if necessary.
“Very easy to work with and she did everything to make our little one comfortable being at the sitters the first time. Truly wish she was in our area (we were traveling for this event) because we would absolutely use her again.”
“Silvia took amazing care of my two pups and made me feel completely at ease during their stay. She was very communicative and sent the best updates and photos throughout the day. I only wish I lived closer so I could use her again! Highly recommend!”
“Skye and Nolan are fantastic! They took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved all the attention. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always been around them! My dad does rover and I have helped him take them on walks, and fed them. I have a pretty flexible schedule and I am home most days with the occasional errand run. I love to workout as well so walking or running with the dogs would be great! I will give the pups plenty of attention and care that they need. I will also be flexible with the owners needs for their pet.
“Even though my needs were last minute, Meghan welcomed my dogs like it was no problem. Everything went well and I will definitely ask her again when the need arises. Thank You Meghan!”
“Michelle was great! She updated me throughout the day of how Doc was doing and had an amazing home. She had other sweet dogs he could play with and a large backyard. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover sitter! Kelly was so warm, welcoming, and flexible with our timing. Coco immediately felt at home and had a wonderful time playing with Deyo. Kelly went above and beyond by sharing local recommendations that helped us make the most of our quick Boise visit. We had complete peace of mind knowing Coco was in such caring hands. We are incredibly grateful and would happily book with her again!”
About: Hi! I'm Adam, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all kinds. I grew up surrounded by dogs and have always been the go-to person for friends and neighbors when they needed someone they could trust with their furry family members. Most recently, I shared life with my red heeler, Rusty, who was a bundle of energy with a huge personality. We had an incredible bond, and I learned so much about what it means to care for a high-energy, high-intelligence breed. Sadly, I had to say goodbye to him not long ago, but I’m so grateful for the time we had. He reminded me how much joy dogs bring to everyday life—and how much care and attention they deserve. Now, I’d love to help others by offering the same love and attention to your dog as I did for mine. Whether it's going for walks, playing in the yard, or just keeping them company while you're away, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to be present and attentive throughout the day. I'm able to take regular breaks to walk, play with, or check in on pets as needed. I also run some mornings, so if your dog enjoys a little extra exercise, I’d be happy to bring them along (with your approval, of course!). Whether it’s active time or quiet companionship, I can easily fit your pet’s needs into my day. When caring for pets in my home, they’ll have access to a small, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time, and I live just a short walk from a wide-open park—perfect for walks, playtime, or just a good sniff around. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly home where your dog can feel safe and comfortable. If I’m visiting your pet at your home or housesitting, you can count on me to treat your space with the same care and respect I give my own. I'm a very neat person, and I’ll always follow your pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel secure while you’re away. I also love biking and walking around town, so I’m happy to stop by for visits or longer stays depending on what your pet needs.

“I was so worried about transitioning from Daycare to leaving my pup home all day and having Laramie has been so great. She made it super easy to set up the visits and always sends a photo or two so I know how he is doing during the day. She’s gives him his treat before he goes so he has something to do to keep him busy for a little longer which helps me feel better about the day alone. He’s been doing great with the transition and seems happy being home which is great!”
“Anastasia was great, truly professional. She offered to come over for a little meet and greet ahead of time. On the day of, she confirmed in the app and was timely in arriving. She took such sweet care of my pup and provided several photos of their adventures together. It is such a stress relief to know that my girl is getting nice, long walks during my working days now. We will be using Anatasia regularly!”
About: I have always loved playing with and taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes since I was a young girl. It has been a dream of mine to become a veterinarian since before I can remember and kickstarting my career with taking care or your fur babies would be a great experience! I am currently working as a dog bather and need another source of income to support my life while also doing what I love. Overnight dog/cat and house sitting will fit into my schedule nicely. I will not be able to care for your pets between 10am-7pm roughly. I will make sure your dog or cat is safely inside, fed and watered (medications if necessary), and thoroughly exercised with walks and playtime. If your pup has anxiety, I will gladly give all the cuddles and hugs to keep them happy.
“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!”

My schedule is extremely flexible so please feel free to contact me anytime and I’ll do my best to help out. I look forward to meeting you both!

“Teresa is amazing. She is professional and caring and wonderful with our geriatric special needs rescue dog. She has great attention to detail. I will definitely be asking her to come back.”
About: I have taken care of dogs as long as I can remember. My family has always owned pets! I am not a stranger to pet sitting for family or friends and I love it! I do not start my full time job until late September so I am free whenever needed! I understand how difficult it can be to schedule vacations with pets so I am here to help! :) I am not able to board pets. I can provide all the attention pets need! I can take them for long walks (Or short ones if little legs are a part of the equation!), play with your pet in your yard, ensure pets are receiving their meals on time, and help your pets feel less lonely whenever families are gone!
About: My first job was a dog walker and then kennel attendant at an animal hospital. I learned to administer medicine and have always loved dogs. I am currently an engineering student at BSU, I am not working full-time. I will be able to keep your dogs well taken care of. I will stay overnight if needed and provide walks as desired. Your dog’s routine will be upheld and maintained. They will get to stay in the comfort of their own home. I send pictures as often as I would want them when away from my dog…as often as possible (: I like things to be tidy, so your home will look the same as it did when you left, if not better. I have a friendly dog who loves to join me if and when it is possible and make new puppy friends.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for 9 years. I have also pet sat for friends and family for about 8 years which has included walking, bathing, house sitting, and general care. Typically I am free whenever you need me! I usually do 1-2 drop in’s per day if my clients are out of town, but I can always do more if requested! I do not have my own place at the moment so I am not able to board pets but I will be respectful of clients homes and am willing to do whatever it is that you need!

First time user so we were a little apprehensive to leave our little guy for 4 days but Mandy made it very easy and comfortable. Thanks again!”
“Moya is amazing. I cannot recommend her high enough. I have an older dog so am always very careful with where I place him and she immediately put my worries to ease. Great communication before, during, and after. Family environment which was perfect for my dog. It felt more like an extension of my own care for my dog than trying to fit him into a different environment. Thank you Moya!!”
