Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rising River
“Ashley is an excellent sitter. My wife and I have left our dog with her twice now and we never worry about our pup when he’s with her. She is very accommodating and I would absolutely recommend her services to anybody looking for a safe place for their dog to stay!”

“Great sitter!! Our dog came back safe and happy and I wasn’t worried about him while we’re gone. Charmaine was very quick to respond and I will definitely book with her again!”

“Robin is an exceptional care giver who is responsible, reliable and supportive to the owners and pets needs. She took care of my brother's dog, Artie while my brother had surgery. Artie loved interacting with Robin and his new dog friends. She has a fenced in yard where he was able to run, play and use up all his high energy. Her home is comfortable inside where he was able to relax and enjoy a home away from home. She was flexible with my brothers schedule and very supportive of his needs. We enjoyed the pictures and videos she would send. Communication with Robin went well and she responds in a timely manner. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets.”

“I just can’t say enough wonderful things about Debora & Randy! They were truly a godsend for us. They gave our puppy so much love and attention while we were gone for Christmas break, and were so patient with her as well. When unforeseen medical problems happened on our trip, they were so accommodating and understanding as we readjusted her pickup date. We got communication and photos from them daily, which was so comforting for our kids who were missing their pup. Pearl received such excellent care and attention, we were sure she wouldn’t want to come home with us 😂 You will not find a kinder, more caring, more compassionate sitter on this app. They were everything we needed, and so much more. Thank you, Debora & Randy, for everything!💕”


“Shannon is truly exceptional! From our initial conversations to the moment I picked up my 15-year-old lab, I felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. She genuinely understands how to nurture animals and goes above and beyond to ensure they are comfortable, happy, and safe. Given my dog’s age and specific challenges, Shannon handled everything—from administering medication to managing occasional accidents—with great compassion and expertise. I highly recommend her for anyone needing to be away from their furry friend. Her caring nature immediately puts your worries to rest. Plus, her location is incredibly convenient; I live just 10 minutes away. If I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would!”

“Samantha did a great job with Mack. We know that he is a bit anxious when we leave him and she was open to a meet and greet before-hand and did great handling him when we left. She checked in with us to let us know that he had calmed down. She took great care over a holiday weekend. Samantha was great!”

“Marilee has taken care of our dog 4 times now. Lizzo comes home extremely happy after her stay there every time. I get a picture and an update every day we are gone. I would recommend Merilee to anyone.”


“Excellent communication! I loved getting updates and photos of my dogs during their stay with her. It made me feel so much better knowing they were in great hands. Definitely will rebook with her.”

“Tearra was fantastic! Seems like Oakley really enjoyed the attention and playtime she was given. Definitely made me feel better about leaving her with someone, and now we have another sitter to use when I need to head out of town.”

“Jacquelynn was fantastic with my three dogs! She provided regular text, picture, and video updates, was prompt in responding to my outreach, and the dogs came home looking happy! I will definitely be booking with her again the next time I am out ot town.”

“Linda is so sweet and caring. You can tell she is a true animal lover. She is genuine, I feel good about leaving my dog with her. I appreciate that she's not distracted by other responsibilities and can give my dog all the attention and care he needs and deserves.”

“Brianna, along with her family and friends were so kind to my Noodles. I came to pick her up only to find her snuggled up to the family on the couch soaking up all the love…be still my heart! Thank you for taking care of her like I would 💕 Brianna was patient with me and sent pictures/videos and responded to text messages timely. 100% would recommend her to my family and friends!”

“Lisa and her husband are life savers. My elderly dog requires a lot of medication and considerations and they did a superb job with it. Lisa sent lots of pictures and updates. They have a great environment for your pet!”

“Megan took excellent care of my 2 doggos! She communicated well and their home was as described in the profile. Plenty of space and the pups were happy upon returning. Thank you!”

“Lauren did a great job sitting my dog Carlos! He had a blast playing with her dogs! She made several adjustments to accommodate me and went above and beyond for us and I really appreciated that!”

“Robin did housesitting for us and did a great job! Our cat loved her and we could tell from the photos/videos that she was happy and secure being at our home with Robin. Thank you Robin for the great job....and for cleaning the refrigerator! See you next time.”


About: I have hands-on professional experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. My background includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering oral medications, monitoring health and behavior, providing enrichment and playtime, and ensuring each cat feels safe and comfortable in their home. I understand that every cat is different. Some love attention and interactive play, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine and respect their individual personality to help minimize stress while you’re away. I also have experience caring for senior cats and cats that require extra patience or medication. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in caring hands.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Rising River

“Shannon was very kind, sweet and professional. My kooper enjoy his time with her and other dogs. She is sooooo caring that even bedazzled his collar. I will definitely use her again.”

“Robin was amazing with my pup. Sadie is a handful and Robin took expert time with her forming a strong and trusting bond. I couldn’t have asked for more attentive care for my lab.”

“Ashley was wonderful with Chai! She was kind enough to take him in at the last minute and was incredibly accommodating with my uncertain drop-off and pick-up times. I really appreciated her patience and flexibility, and it was clear that Chai was well cared for and comfortable. I’d absolutely trust her to watch him again!”

About: I started out walking dogs in middle school and joined dog 4-H and learned basic obedience and showing. I love caring for puppies and can potty train. My schedule is open during the week and weekends. I have two dogs who are dog friendly that keep your dogs or puppy company. I can crate dog if needed at night or short times during poor weather conditions. I like to see that high energy dogs can get up to 1-2 hours of exercise every day at my home. With exercise I like to combine brain exercise so they can be fully tuckered out.

About: Growing up on a farm and in 4-H, I learned from an early age that animals had a very special place in my heart (especially dogs). I enjoy spending quality time with my pups by taking them on easy to moderate hikes, walking/jogging them through my neighborhood, playing fetch in our fully fenced backyard, and giving lots of snuggles. In my home your dogs will be loved and taken care of as if they were one of my own. I am available for Boarding Monday-Friday with some weekend availability. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you may have as I am happy to help. I look forward to meeting both you and your dogs and getting out to enjoy beautiful SE Idaho with them! I am currently home full time, so I am able to give your pup lots of attention and love during their stay in our home. I have a fully fenced yard and two dogs who would love to play with your pup! If they like to play tag and enjoy wrestling then they will have a great time playing with our sausage dogs Brody and Gracie.
“My dog, Olive, is on the shy side and Charmaine's house seemed like a calm option for her. I appreciated that Charmaine kept me updated when I asked how Olive was doing a few hours in. The whole house was kind and gentle with Olive. I would recommend Charmaine as a good sitter for anxious or shy dogs or dogs who need a bit more individual attention than a commercial daycare can provide. Thanks Charmaine and family!”

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was a child! My husband and I have a rescue German Shepherd, his name is Kiba. He is 3. We have 3 kids. I have a dog and a cat! So taking care of animals is a part of my regular routine. But I'm also a stay-at-home-mom of 3 kids. So I'm home a lot and have the time! I've worked in many people's homes in the past, not with animals, and I'm very respectful of peoples spaces. I'm there to do a job and love your animal while you're busy! The same in my home, they'll be there to be loved when you can't!

“We are so incredibly grateful that we found Summer on Rover! She has been absolutely amazing with our dog. I’ve never met someone who is so genuinely happy, attentive, and caring. We always have complete peace of mind knowing that he is getting the very best care while he’s with her. She sends us the cutest photos every day, which we absolutely love, and she goes above and beyond to make sure he is happy and well cared for. I never have to worry about him when he’s with Summer. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“I was in town for a work trip and needed daycare for my dog. I was so lucky to find Jacquelynn and Graden! Jacqueline took amazing care of Yarrow and sent me updates while I was away. Yarrow had a great time. I will be booking with them again next time I am in town.”

“We have used Marilee a couple times and it has been awesome. She is so great to always deal with my Crazy schedule even if it’s last minute sometimes. She is great about sending me pictures of my dog and my dog is always so excited to go back and play. The nights we did boarding it all went amazing. I highly recommend marilee for doggie watching.”

I’ve always tried my very best to make sure he’s a happy pup! So, best assure! Your fur baby will be treated with the same love ❤️
About: As a pet owner and a huge pet lover, I have learned firsthand how important it is to have someone that you can trust with your furry family members while you are away. If you need someone to check on your pets on short notice, take care of them and give them companionship while you are away, or just exercise them during your long days at the office, I would love to help. I work from home so I have a very open and flexible shedule, this allows me to adapt my schedule to accomodate whatever you pet care needs may be. Attention to your pets safety is of utmost importance to me. I would love to meet with you and go over any special needs that your pet may require.
About: I've had a dog since I was 5 years old. I have two cats and a dog and would welcome any dog that gets along good with other animals. I work from home so watching animals during the day is no problem. My dog is inside and outside with a large backyard to play around in. When it's very cold I let the dogs roam the main floor of the house. I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment for every pet. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications. In my home, pets are always supervised, kept in a clean space, and never left in unsafe situations. I make sure they’re comfortable and stress-free, with plenty of attention and exercise.
About: My wife and I are experienced pet owners that naturally connect with animals and are happy to provide reliable care for boarding and daycare. • Certified Good Pup Dog Trainer • Calm family environment, two adults, one teen, and one mature friendly female Corgi • Spacious fenced yard, never chemically treated • 24/7 care, someone is always home I work from home part time plus several hours a day at the office Mon-Fri. My schedule is fairly flexible for meet and greets, drop-offs and pick-ups. I am available most weekdays, weekends and holidays. Saturday availability is limited to in-progress boarding that began prior to Friday night and pick-ups as my family and I observe a 7th day rest. We treat the dogs in our care like they part of our family. Typically, they sleep in the master bedroom with my wife and me, either in their crate or on the floor.
“Lauren and her family took great care of our dogs! We would definitely recommend her and we even asked for her to watch them again, but unfortunately she was booked! :) thank you!”

“I knew my dog was in good hands, he’s a very anxious fellow. Nataliya was so gentle and comforting. Nice big yard for my dog to play in. Her dog being there was good. Oscar loves having dogs to play with.”

About: Animals have been the heartbeat of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a ranch, I learned early on that caring for animals is a 24/7 commitment that requires patience, hard work, and a sharp eye for detail. From chickens and bunnies to cats and dogs—and even more unique pets like ferrets and birds—I was raised with the understanding that every animal has its own personality and specific needs. My parents gave me my first dog when I was 1, she was best friend till she passed away when I was 17 years old. I learned at a very young age how to care for dogs and all the responsibilities that go along with them. She was by my side, even when she passed. I have owned several more through my adult life and currently have 2 senior pups that have been with us since Itty bitty babies. As an animal mom myself, I know exactly how hard it is to head out on vacation. Leaving your fur babies behind and worrying about the level of care they are receiving can be incredibly stressful. Because I understand that bond, I promise that any pet in my care will receive the exact same level of love, attention, and high-standard care that I expect for my own. My goal is to give you total peace of mind; I’m here to make sure your pet’s routine is followed perfectly and their day is a little brighter while you’re away. My husband owns his own business and I am currently taking classes online at home on my own time to get my bachelors degree in accounting so rover fits my schedule perfectly and lets me do something I love. How perfect is that! Care in Your Home (Drop-ins & House Sitting) "When I care for your pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their sense of security and routine. I understand that a disruption in their environment can be stressful, so I focus on the details that matter: I stick strictly to your feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. Whether it’s a high-energy game of fetch or quiet snuggles for a senior pet, I’m there to provide genuine companionship, not just a quick visit. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) "I treat every pet in my home like a member of my own family. My space is a 'pawsitive' environment where your fur baby can feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. Pets are never left unattended and have constant access to fresh water, cozy resting spots, a fenced in back yard, and plenty of affection. Can also crate if needed. Because I’m an 'animal mom,' I know that some pets need extra reassurance. I provide a calm, organized space where they can settle in quickly. Drawing on my years of experience growing up on a ranch, I am highly observant of animal behavior and health. I keep a close eye on their appetite, energy levels, and overall well being. You’ll receive regular photos and updates so you can see exactly how much fun your pet is having, letting you enjoy your time away worry-free."
