“Wendy and her husband were so nice during the meet and great and tour of their vast property. The property had a great country feel and lots of space for our dog to play with supervision. She explained how the dog kennels worked, which were a great size with open air and heated indoor area. Wendy answered all of our questions and was a great communicator before, during and after. Our Golden Retriever gravitated to her from day one. She was boarded from drop off on 11/22 to pickup on 11/29. Absolutely loved the videos and photos she sent during that time showing our girl happy and playing her heart out. Upon arriving back at home our golden had a nice long nap and was back to her normal routine upon waking up, which says a lot. We felt the boarding fees were appropriate and are grateful to have found Wendy. We would highly recommend her and will continue using her services.”
“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”
“Ashley and her family took exceptional care of our dog. She sent detailed, daily updates with pictures. Our Golden seemed very comfortable in their setting and enjoyed all the attention he received. Ashley is very organized and paid close attention to every detail of our dog's care. She was flexible when I misread the itinerary and needed our dog to stay another day. Thankfully,she was available. We would definitely recommend her and use her again!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”
“Kara was excellent with our Golden Retriever, puppy. We were so lucky to have her take care of him. You could tell she truly cared about animals. She had a perfect place for our dog to stay with a great fenced in backyard. If we are in the area again we will contact Kara!”
“I was so thankful to leave Molly with someone who was kind, communicative, and trustworthy. We were visiting from another state and Hannah made my old pup feel immediately comfortable.”
“Shaunette is amazing! Excellent communication. We went and met her before having her watch the dogs and she made us feel right at home. It’s obvious that she loves dogs with a passion. She sent me pictures every single day that she had the dogs. And both of my dogs felt right at home immediately. I actually can’t wait to use her again.”
“Whenever my dog goes to Sherin, she really treats her like one of the family. I trust her, and love how close she is to our home. I will definitely use her agin to board my dog!”
“We love Mikey! The dogs love Mikey! One of our dogs is fragile due to a heart condition and is on meds. Mikey took good care of him and I didn't need to worry. She has an awesome yard for the dogs to run and play. I was on a va-cay and I think my dogs felt that they were too!”
About: I've worked with many breeds of dogs. Mostly small to mid-size dogs with a variety of traits. Mostly working dogs namely Blue Heelers & Huskys. I tend to live an active lifestyle and that means hiking/walking/and lots of exercise. Rest assured both me and your pooch will be getting a good workout! In the past I've facilitated overnight lodging for dogs, and temporary stays of up to a few days. Be noted I do not currently have a large open or fenced in yard. I work with neighbors and friends pets on quite a regular basis! I regularly feed, train, walk & care for pets when away or on business! I work from home so this environment provides a perfect spot for pets to be nurtured & played with consistently! I always check prior to booking any special exercise and or dietary needs of your pet. Ensuring door remain locked when inside and timer's are set for when pets receive food upon client preference. Safety is of the upmost priority, so I will discuss a full plan and schedule so you know where you pup is and his progress while away. I will send regular check in photos to provide accountability for myself and the clients well being.
“Kim and David were wonderful with our dog, Scout. Their home was very comfortable and he clearly enjoyed his visit with them. They were very attentive to his needs and even treated his eye when it became irritated while we were away. We look forward to having them keep him again when we travel in the future.”
“This was the first time we left our puppy Oakley and we were so nervous! Tammy put us right at ease from the beginning and she was so accommodating to Oakley’s needs. She was great to send messages and pictures daily of the things going on each day. Thanks Tammy for taking great care of our pup!”
“I’ve never NOT worried about my dog when I left town until now. My dog usually cries for me when I leave anywhere, and she was preoccupied not only by all the animals, but she was so excited to see Rebecca to even notice me leaving! She sent pictures every day and Myka was pooped when I picked her up. Worth every penny. I’ve already booked my next trip with her.”
“We really appreciated their flexibility in taking Maggie at a late date. She had a great time and they were very attentive to her needs. We would definitely rebook with them! They have a.beautiful, secure backyard which was so nice. Thank you!”
“Heidi was amazing! She and her sweet family provided our dog with lots of care & attention. We also appreciated the daily photos and updates. Our dog came home happy, healthy & clean. I definitely recommend booking with her!”
About: My father taught me about life by giving me pets since I was able to walk. Animals are a gift and should be treated like they are family. I work full time, but I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Having a small farm myself, my kids, who are older, pitch in to give animals all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in property and enclosed kennels for exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and playing ball with them outside. Any specific requests will try to be honored…
“Heather is ohenomenal. She basically adopts my dog for three days. Kept me informed and at ease. A time of great strain became bearable because of her care for my Emma. I will use her service again!”

“She did a GREAT job sitting for our kitten Misaki. She was able to meet up with me fairly last minute, and was able to stay overnight with him which was really important to us. We got pictures every day and updates at least once a day. Misaki seemed just as happy and crazy as usual when we got home. She also left our apartment nice and tidy! Definitely recommend her ?”
“Cailee was wonderful with my Larry Lou. He is a little stand offish but she worked through it and gained his trust. She communicated with me every day and set mind at ease. She even brought in packages that were piled on my front porch! I will use her again! She was great.”
“Sarah was amazing. She took great care of my cat and did everything I asked of her. She is reliable and punctual and great to work with. I’ll definitely book her again when the time comes.”
“Mellany did a fantastic job taking care of our “spoiled” cat, Nin. She was extremely conscientious regarding her feeding and schedule. Mellany exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her based on our experience. We would not hesitate requesting her services in the future.”
“Having Crystal drop in on our cats was a pleasure. We really liked her, and she was very caring for our (weird) elderly cats, even though they mostly hid during her visits. She handled an unexpected mess on the carpet like a pro. We're impressed and would definitely book her again - highly recommend!”
About: Cats aren't just "easier" than dogs—they're complex, perceptive creatures who notice everything, especially when their routine is disrupted. My approach to cat care is rooted in understanding that cats thrive on consistency, respect for their boundaries, and someone who actually pays attention to their subtle communication. I've cared for cats of all personalities over the past 13 years—from the social butterflies who greet you at the door to the shy ones who need days to warm up, and everything in between. What sets me apart is that I don't rush the relationship. I let cats come to me on their terms, and I've learned to read their body language so well that I can tell when a "hiding" cat is stressed versus just observing, or when a change in litter box habits signals something more serious. What I bring to cat care: ✓ Medication administration – pills, liquids, injections, subcutaneous fluids, eye drops, ear medications ✓ Special dietary needs – timed feedings, prescription diets, food puzzles, picky eaters ✓ Litter box expertise – yes, I actually care about litter boxes! Multiple boxes, special substrates, and monitoring for health changes ✓ Senior cat care – arthritis management, kidney disease support, comfort-focused care ✓ Shy or anxious cats – patient, calm approach that respects their need for space ✓ Medical monitoring – recognizing early signs of illness, URI symptoms, behavioral changes that indicate pain ✓ Multi-cat households – managing dynamics, separate feeding schedules, preventing resource guarding ✓ Interactive play sessions – not just food and water; I engage cats with play appropriate to their age and energy ✓ Grooming assistance – brushing long-haired cats, nail trims if your cat tolerates it I treat your home with respect—plants watered, mail collected, and your cat's environment kept exactly as they like it. You'll get regular updates (including photos if your cat cooperates!) so you know they're content and cared for. If you have a cat who needs more than just someone to "dump food and go," let's talk.
“Kelly and Tyler were wonderful to work with. Tyler came and took care of our 2 cats, chickens and geese while we were on vacation. They were friendly, reliable, and followed instructions well. He was so patient in waiting for our shy cats to warm up to him. His communication and daily photo/video updates made leaving them so much easier knowing they were being well taken care of. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“She was absolutely amazing, she followed written instructions to the t. It was nice to get the daily pictures I downloaded them and made a photo album because my cats never pose for me like they did for her. I don't know what she did. They were actually looking for her the first day I was home. I highly recommend Madisyn and will definitely use her in the future.”
“Christy gave me peace of mind, she was so reliable, competent, and caring with my cat. He required special medication and handling due to his illness, and she took care of him beautifully. She took the time to give him love and attention also. Sent me pictures every day. I will happily use her again.”
About: What sets me apart is the calm, patient energy I bring specifically for cats — and the real-life experience I have caring for my own. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after them. I know the little things matter: keeping routines consistent, monitoring eating and litter habits, and respecting their unique personalities. I’m experienced with kittens (litter training support, play enrichment, routine building) and senior cats (medication, mobility awareness, gentle handling). I understand that some cats are affectionate and social, while others need space and a slow approach — and I always move at their pace. Caring for my own cat has made me attentive to subtle behavior changes and the small details that keep them happy and stress-free. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and to give you peace of mind with regular updates and photos.
About: Since I am retired, I have plenty of time and love to dedicate to your fur baby. My flexible schedule allows me to give them the attention and care they truly deserve. With over 30 years of experience caring for pets—from playful kittens to senior cats—I understand that every animal is unique and has their own specific needs. I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m here to provide reliable, compassionate care and peace of mind for pet parents who need to be away from their fur babies.
About: I have years of experience with horses, dogs, and cats. I have always had pets growing up, from small mutts to large high drive German Shepherds (currently have them!). I have knowledge of most breeds and their traits, which I believe helps you understand the pet itself. I have worked as an equine veterinary technician before for 2 years, which has exposed me to many different types of pets, big and small! I currently am self employed and run my own business. I enjoy going on walks and figured why not get a new buddy to go with me! I love animals and would much prefer hanging out with your cat, or dog than anything else really. I'll alway make time to pet that dog! (or cat, we don't play favorites. But we all know cats decide when they want to be pet. ;) ) I always put safety and comfort first. I follow each pet’s routine so they feel at ease, make sure they have fresh food and water, and keep their space calm and secure. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with love, patience, and attention.
“From when she came out and did our initial meeting with the animals, I knew she was going to be a great fit on taking care of the animals. Our cats don’t warm up to new people quickly & they were instantly friendly. She did daily check ins on them. Always super thorough, played with the dogs and gave the kitties treats. I think our animals are actually disappointed we did not come home bearing treats after having an awesome pet sitter all week. Haha. I highly recommend Alexandrea. She did great with our crew. We’ve got two dogs and two cats. Age ranges from 1 year to 13 years old. She even did some light cleaning so we didn’t have to come home to hair covered floors.”
“Kaylee was the absolute best. She was able to watch my two dogs on super late notice for the very next day, and she didn’t mind at all. She treated them like her own and it made me feel much better about having someone come into my home to watch them. I highly recommend her!”
About: “I genuinely enjoy working with all types of animals and take great care to understand their individual needs and comfort levels. My goal is to build a trusting relationship with your cats so you can feel confident and at ease when they’re in my care.”
“Shachel did a great job caring for our 2 kitties while we were out of out of town for a couple weeks. She was responsible, reliable, and loving to our cats and they felt very safe with her calm energy. We will definitely have her petsit for us again!”
“I felt very confident leaving Rose in charge of my cat. She seemed to really care about her job and my pet. Rose had good rapport with my cat and is the kind of person that would go out of her way to do her best.”

“Best experience we could have expected!! Lindsey & Leland and their children were excellent with Jessie Jessie was very content and happy at their home. I was sent a photo and numerous messages during the day on how Jessie was doing. I would definitely leave Jessie with Lindsey & Leland for daycare in the future!!”
“Was a perfect place for our Blu. He was well taken care of. Mikey is amazing. So kind, sent us photos, kept us updated, she was flexible with pick up times. Her yard for the dogs is amazing. Will be back next year!! Thank you.”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our elderly dog for the day. Your kindness and attention gave us real peace of mind, and we would happily recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
About: I have experience with dogs of various shapes and sizes—Chihuahua, Shih-tzu, Bull Terrier, Pit bulls, Akita, St. Bernard, Airedaile, to name a few. I also have experience caring for other animals like cats, chickens, ducks, goats, etc. Just show me what you need done and I’ll get it done. I’m here because I absolutely adore animals. I’m a caring and compassionate person and I hope to give fellow pet parents a sense of relief as they look to this community for care and services. I am a responsible person, with a relatively laidback lifestyle. I won’t be out late and I won’t leave your dog alone for long periods of time. I have an extremely close bond with my own dogs and see them as important members of our home. I will treat your pets the same way. I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, but to house sit, I will need internet access. In the afternoons I may need to leave for a short period (2-3 hours) to spend time with my family. I like to care for your pet the same way you would. I prefer that your pets feel like it’s just another day. As a pet owner myself, I understand the nerves that come with entrusting your pets to another person. I aim to alleviate that stress and anxiety as much as possible— for you and your pet!
“During my visit to Coeur 'd Alene, we had some activities planned that were not suitable for dogs. I turned to Rover after reading some troubling reviews on the local pet resorts. And I could not be happier that I went this route! After reading several profiles and reviews, I found Carolyn and she was quick to respond to my last minute request, literally the night before we needed a sitter. After sharing a little information back and forth, she agreed to take our girl Shelby for the day. I can't express enough how very blessed and fortunate I was to have found Carolyn. Upon meeting her, and dropping off Shelby the next morning, I felt an instant connection, and she was gracious in sending me updates and pics throughout the day to provide assurance that Shelby was doing fine! We continued to use Carolyn's services for several more days, and each morning when we arrived, Shelby was excited to see her, and to go play with the other dogs in her care. Carolyn provided a good balance of outdoor play and indoor rest to ensure that the dogs didn't get too overheated. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating with drop off and pickup times as well. I will close with saying that Carolyn is an absolute sweetheart, and that I gained a new friend in Coeur 'd Alene! I look forward to using her services when visiting the area again. She will take care of your pet as if it were her own.”

About: We have lots of experience with dogs and cats from youngsters, to active, to frail seniors. Pet friendly home with a clean and comfortable fenced yard.

About: I discovered my love for animals when my mom rescued a Shiba Inu shortly after my dad died. Since then, I've made every effort to learn as much as I can about cats and dogs, including going to professional grooming school and I'm currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer. Most of my experience with cats has come from my sister and her roommate, but I love cats just as much as I love dogs I do have another part time job, but scheduling is flexible so I'll have plenty of time in the day to check on your buddy! I'm very conscious of their safety and always use a leash, always make sure fenced areas are secure, and that there's no toxic plants around them. My own have a history of bolting/running away, so these things have become 2nd nature for me.

About: I grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats, horses, fish, cows, chickens, and a goat, having pets most of my life. My background is in healthcare while in the military. I have been my father's caregiver which allowed me to help foster puppy litters to adult dogs and care for a pack of 8 dogs-4 of which are mine while caring for him. I can now enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I am interested in always learning about animal behavior and all aspects of their care. I have been my father's caregiver but sadly he passed at the age of 94 and would enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I have an open schedule that is veryflexible. I am blessed to have my son's help caring for our dogs, allowing me to provide in-home and overnight care if needed. The number one goal is to adapt personalized routines for your pets so they are happy and healthy.
“Lisa was my very first Rover experience and she did not disappoint. Thank you for the great photos and the report card. It’s clear that they needed the walk and break. I will be using Lisa again without question. Thank you Lisa and Rover.”
“Crystal took such great care of our puppy. Also..I had to make some last minute changes and Crystal was really helpful in assisting me with those. We hope to be able to schedule her again!”
“Christy is the best! She’s super responsive and sent me so many pictures of my boy! And even left some treats for him. I will 100% be using her again in the future🐾🤍”
About: ⭐️ I offer services in the Twin Falls, Idaho area between late August and early May (fall, winter, and early spring). Then, between mid May and early August I offer services for the Coeur d'Alene, Idaho area (late spring, summer). If you have any questions about where I'm at at the moment feel free to reach out ⭐️ Hello! My name is Madi. I am a current vet tech student looking to go into small animal medicine after graduation. I have three years of experience in veterinary medicine, with two of those years also being involved in a 4-H veterinary science project. Aside from my experience with veterinary care, I have been petsitting for the last seven years or so. I have cared for small and large breed dogs, cats, and birds. I have a soft spot for dogs as I have six years of prior experience in the 4-H dog project and some occasional AKC competitions. I've taken a break to focus on school; however, I've missed the petsitting aspect of my life. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets :) I am currently in vet tech school full-time; however, I am hoping to incorporate petcare back into my schedule. I have taken a short break from petcare to focus on school, but I've found that I miss it! In the past, I was able to incorporate petcare into my schedule effectively for both drop in visits and dogwalking. I can provide petcare on most weekdays (depending on the current schooling load) and on weekends. Feel free to message me with any scheduling questions! While I am not currently offering client petcare at my home, I feel very strongly that I can provide a safe environment for your pets in their homes and while walking. Years of experience training my reactive dog has assisted me in learning body language and how to properly avoid uncomfortable situations. While walking, I avoid greetings with other dogs as well as people. This keeps everyone safe and eliminates any possible issues that could arise. While doing drop in visits, I check the state of outdoor yards prior to letting animals out. This avoids possible escape or contact with animals or foreign materials. Additionally, I treat client pets as though they are my own and provide them with the love and care they need to be happy and healthy :)
About: I’ve lived on a farm my whole life. We mainly have Angora goats, chickens, ducks, and guardian dogs. However, we’ve also had the occasional sheep, dairy goat, guinea hen and even a llama. In the house we have a Vizsla, four cats, and salt water fish. In the past I have also had a gecko and a hedgehog. I am available from 11am to 2pm and after 5pm. My weekend availability varies as I have tournaments most weekends, but I am usually available all day on Sundays. I also am available full time during holiday breaks. I do not offer care at my house because I don’t want to risk any problems with my pets, but I am happy to come to your house or take your pets for walks!
“Layla is a friendly and caring person that showed great passion and excitement when walking my dog. She showed great communication, reliability, and is trust worthy. I'd recommend her to anyone”
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for animals my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or just some quiet cuddle time, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for senior dogs with special needs, so I’m confident handling medications, special diets, and unique routines. Your pet will be treated like family with me! I am currently available most days of the week to take care of your furry friends I only can’t work on Tuesday's but can be flexible to rearrange my schedule if given enough time. I currently have only a very spoiled indoor bunny at my house so boarding at my house is unavailable but I am totally going to show you pictures of him. But I am the pet sitter for my family and friends so I’m use to the change of environments. So if your pet has cute quirks and unique schedule don’t worry I am totally on board. I understand having someone new enter your families environment is super hard but I am here to keep your furry friends safe and do things at your pace.

I care about movement and exercise for your pup, as well as finding out their music tastes! I care for them with cuddles and scratches and personal attention. I also will play outside in the fresh air with your doggo. I never give people food to any dog and will rush to grab something off the floor if dropped to get it before they do. I make sure they have enough water in a clean bowl regularly and never have to hold their pee :) if requested, I will pick up poop out of the yard and definitely on a walk or playing at the park. Dogs are so special to us and deserve the best care!
About: Hi, I'm Stephanie, and this is my husband Luke. We're your Critter Companions, and with us, two is always better. For overnight stays we work as a team, which means double the attention, double the playtime, and an extra set of eyes on your property. We specialize in residential pet and property care. As independent caretakers, our mission is estate-level care that gives you complete peace of mind: your pets stay comfortable in their own home, and your property is truly looked after, not just checked on. ✦ What We Specialize In We're especially comfortable with the pets and situations that need extra care and attention: ✓ Special needs and senior pets (blind, deaf, mobility-challenged, or behaviorally complex) ✓ Complex medication schedules: pills, injections, eye drops, you name it ✓ High-maintenance breeds that need extensive grooming, intense exercise, or dedicated training ✓ Extended stays, comfortably caring for your pets for weeks or even months at a time ✓ Holiday care, because I don't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's ✓ Multi-pet households, managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and needs ✓ Anxious or reactive pets, with patient, consistent care that helps nervous animals feel secure ✦ A Little About Us We were both raised around animals, but I turned that passion into my life's work. I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, the neighborhood's trusted pet sitter long before it was a profession. Thirteen years later, I've cared for everything from easy-going family dogs to high-maintenance breeds with special medical needs, for stays ranging from long weekends to month-long holidays. What clients tell me sets me apart is how I read animals. I pick up on the subtle changes in behavior, body language, and those little cues that tell you something's off before it becomes a problem. I'm not going through the motions; I love what I do, and that enthusiasm shows in how I care for your pets and your home. ✦ Your Home, Cared For I look after your home just as carefully: mail, plants, trash bins, security checks, and that lived-in presence that keeps your property safe. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can truly relax while you're away. ✦ Values You Can Trust Beyond the practical care, we believe the people you let into your home matter just as much as the work they do. We love the Lord, and our faith in Jesus shapes how we run our business and how we treat what's entrusted to us. For us that means a simple, steady lifestyle: we don't drink, smoke, party, or invite guests into your home. While you're away, your house stays exactly as it should, quiet, respected, and cared for, with nothing happening under your roof that you wouldn't welcome yourself. When you hand us your keys, you're trusting us with your home and your family. We take that seriously, and we hold ourselves to it no matter the circumstances. ✦ Let's Connect Over the years I've built lasting relationships with pets and their owners because I treat every home like my own and every pet like family. I'd be honored to earn that same trust from you. If you're looking for someone who will love and protect your pets (and home) like their own, let's connect. Pet care isn't a side hustle for me—it's my primary focus and passion. My husband and I are entrepreneurs with flexible schedules, which means we can provide the kind of attentive, present care that pets truly need. For overnight stays, we're in your home from evening through the following morning (and throughout the day if needed), so your pets are never alone for extended periods. We don't juggle multiple clients at once or rush between appointments. When we commit to caring for your pets, they have our full attention for the duration of your trip. We're available for extended stays including weekends, holidays, and even month-long commitments. Because we work as a team, your pets benefit from having two consistent caregivers who can coordinate schedules, provide extra play sessions, and ensure someone is always nearby if needed. In Your Home: I've been around animals literally since I was an infant—they've always been my comfort, my joy, and honestly, my obsession. There's something about the presence of animals that just feels like home to me, and that's exactly the energy I bring to your pets and property. As the owner of a young, energetic Miniature Australian Shepherd, I know firsthand what it takes to meet the demands of intelligent, high-energy breeds. I'm devoted to keeping my own dog mentally stimulated, physically tired, and emotionally fulfilled—and I bring that same level of commitment to every pet in my care. Your pets aren't just a job to me; they're loved and treated with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Pet Safety & Care: ✓I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, medication schedules, exercise patterns, and house rules ✓Secure all doors, windows, and gates before letting pets outside (no escape artists on my watch!) ✓Keep toxic plants, foods, and hazards out of reach ✓Monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health ✓Have your vet information and emergency contacts readily accessible ✓Never introduce your pets to unfamiliar animals or people without permission ✓Provide the mental stimulation and physical activity your pets need to stay happy and healthy Home Security & Cleanliness: ✓Maintain a "lived-in" presence with lights, blinds, and your normal routine ✓Collect mail and packages to avoid signaling an empty home ✓Take trash bins to/from curb on collection days ✓Water plants and maintain your home's appearance ✓Provide regular photo/video updates so you can see everything (and everyone) is doing great ✓I pride myself on attention to detail and cleanliness—you'll come home to a thoroughly cleaned space that exceeds expectations Trust & Respect: I treat your home with the utmost respect—no unauthorized guests ever and I leave your space cleaner than I found it. My husband and I work as a team, which means your pets get double the love and your home gets double the oversight. The best part? When you walk through that door after your trip, your pets will be more giddy than ever to see you—well-exercised, well-loved, and so happy you're home. And you can relax knowing everything was handled with care.
About: I have been “Trusted Housesitting” across the country to care for families’ cherished pets. I am now living in Coeur d'Alene and happy to continue providing dog and cat care in the area. I always like to maintain consistency with the pets' familiar feeding and walking routines. I thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to befriend new pets and to enjoy the local neighborhood walks together. I have extensive experience with multi-step feeding and specific home instructions and pay attention to the details so each furry friend and their parents feel secure. I have a flexible schedule and am home with pets daily during home-stays. I am available for local and destination home-stays, dog-walking, and drop-in services. I am happy provide references from our Trusted Housesitting clients. I always make sure homes and remain tidy and pet-safe during the stay. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and throwing the ball for them regularly. I have experience caring for up to six pets at one time.
About: I discovered my love for animals when my mom rescued a Shiba Inu shortly after my dad died. Since then, I've made every effort to learn as much as I can about cats and dogs, including going to professional grooming school and I'm currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer. Most of my experience with cats has come from my sister and her roommate, but I love cats just as much as I love dogs I do have another part time job, but scheduling is flexible so I'll have plenty of time in the day to check on your buddy! I'm very conscious of their safety and always use a leash, always make sure fenced areas are secure, and that there's no toxic plants around them. My own have a history of bolting/running away, so these things have become 2nd nature for me.
“Rose has been very reliable coming to my apartment and walking my dog 4 days a week. She is great at communicating and always make sure my dog is treated very well. I highly recommended her services”
About: I've worked with many breeds of dogs. Mostly small to mid-size dogs with a variety of traits. Mostly working dogs namely Blue Heelers & Huskys. I tend to live an active lifestyle and that means hiking/walking/and lots of exercise. Rest assured both me and your pooch will be getting a good workout! In the past I've facilitated overnight lodging for dogs, and temporary stays of up to a few days. Be noted I do not currently have a large open or fenced in yard. I work with neighbors and friends pets on quite a regular basis! I regularly feed, train, walk & care for pets when away or on business! I work from home so this environment provides a perfect spot for pets to be nurtured & played with consistently! I always check prior to booking any special exercise and or dietary needs of your pet. Ensuring door remain locked when inside and timer's are set for when pets receive food upon client preference. Safety is of the upmost priority, so I will discuss a full plan and schedule so you know where you pup is and his progress while away. I will send regular check in photos to provide accountability for myself and the clients well being.

“Wendy and her husband were so nice during the meet and great and tour of their vast property. The property had a great country feel and lots of space for our dog to play with supervision. She explained how the dog kennels worked, which were a great size with open air and heated indoor area. Wendy answered all of our questions and was a great communicator before, during and after. Our Golden Retriever gravitated to her from day one. She was boarded from drop off on 11/22 to pickup on 11/29. Absolutely loved the videos and photos she sent during that time showing our girl happy and playing her heart out. Upon arriving back at home our golden had a nice long nap and was back to her normal routine upon waking up, which says a lot. We felt the boarding fees were appropriate and are grateful to have found Wendy. We would highly recommend her and will continue using her services.”
“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”
“Ashley and her family took exceptional care of our dog. She sent detailed, daily updates with pictures. Our Golden seemed very comfortable in their setting and enjoyed all the attention he received. Ashley is very organized and paid close attention to every detail of our dog's care. She was flexible when I misread the itinerary and needed our dog to stay another day. Thankfully,she was available. We would definitely recommend her and use her again!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”
“Kara was excellent with our Golden Retriever, puppy. We were so lucky to have her take care of him. You could tell she truly cared about animals. She had a perfect place for our dog to stay with a great fenced in backyard. If we are in the area again we will contact Kara!”
“I was so thankful to leave Molly with someone who was kind, communicative, and trustworthy. We were visiting from another state and Hannah made my old pup feel immediately comfortable.”
“Shaunette is amazing! Excellent communication. We went and met her before having her watch the dogs and she made us feel right at home. It’s obvious that she loves dogs with a passion. She sent me pictures every single day that she had the dogs. And both of my dogs felt right at home immediately. I actually can’t wait to use her again.”
“Whenever my dog goes to Sherin, she really treats her like one of the family. I trust her, and love how close she is to our home. I will definitely use her agin to board my dog!”
“We love Mikey! The dogs love Mikey! One of our dogs is fragile due to a heart condition and is on meds. Mikey took good care of him and I didn't need to worry. She has an awesome yard for the dogs to run and play. I was on a va-cay and I think my dogs felt that they were too!”
“This was the first time we left our puppy Oakley and we were so nervous! Tammy put us right at ease from the beginning and she was so accommodating to Oakley’s needs. She was great to send messages and pictures daily of the things going on each day. Thanks Tammy for taking great care of our pup!”
“I’ve never NOT worried about my dog when I left town until now. My dog usually cries for me when I leave anywhere, and she was preoccupied not only by all the animals, but she was so excited to see Rebecca to even notice me leaving! She sent pictures every day and Myka was pooped when I picked her up. Worth every penny. I’ve already booked my next trip with her.”
“We really appreciated their flexibility in taking Maggie at a late date. She had a great time and they were very attentive to her needs. We would definitely rebook with them! They have a.beautiful, secure backyard which was so nice. Thank you!”
“Heidi was amazing! She and her sweet family provided our dog with lots of care & attention. We also appreciated the daily photos and updates. Our dog came home happy, healthy & clean. I definitely recommend booking with her!”
About: My father taught me about life by giving me pets since I was able to walk. Animals are a gift and should be treated like they are family. I work full time, but I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Having a small farm myself, my kids, who are older, pitch in to give animals all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in property and enclosed kennels for exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and playing ball with them outside. Any specific requests will try to be honored…
“Heather is ohenomenal. She basically adopts my dog for three days. Kept me informed and at ease. A time of great strain became bearable because of her care for my Emma. I will use her service again!”
“Kelly was awesome! She kept me updated throughout the week of boarding, my dog loved her dog and she treated him like he belonged in her family. He goes back in a week and a half and I feel so relieved to have found someone I can trust with him :)”
“Suzanne and her family were wonderful with dog. He is a bit anxious so he needs to be somewhere out of town where he can be off leash. At Suzanne’s house he walks in the woods and plays with her older dog. He bonded with Suzanne’s son and I got lots of pictures. Suzanne was very flexible on both drop off and pick up time as I was traveling with friends and didn’t have an exact time. We will definitely be back to Suzanne’s house for dog care.!”
