“Brandi was great! Peanut just took right to her and loved being there. Brandi sent me daily photos to see how Peanut was adapting. She loved being there and I will definitely seek out Brandi the next time we need a sitter for Peanut. I know she will be well taken care of and I will be able to enjoy my time away not worrying about her.”
“She was so great with him. We explained that we’re students and she was so kind and willing to work with our budget which we really appreciated!! She sent us a few updates and said everything went well and Chewy was doing great! Some people may want more frequent updates, but personally we appreciated that she wasn’t sending us a million pictures every day lol. It was the right amount of updates to know he was ok while still enjoying our vacation when we couldn’t be on our phones all that much. Also, she even offered to pick him up and drop him off which made things so much easier for us with all the packing and crazy travel. Definitely recommend her and hope to book with her again the next time we go out of town!”
“Katia was great and very understanding! Unfortunately my dog displayed symptoms of separation anxiety and my emergency contact ended up having to pick him up. Despite this issue, Katia was great about it helped me, a new Rover user figure out the refund and cancellation situation!”
About: I have loved and adored dogs since I was able to walk on my own. I have owned a large number of dogs over the years. My wife and I currently own a Brittany, a Golden Collie, and an old herding dog. My dogs enjoy a huge fenced back yard while also having 12 acres to run around and burn energy. I am a caretaker of my father in law and am at home during the day. I own three dogs that love socializing and meeting new friends I live on 12 acres can walk and play with your dogs. I have several dog crates for evening sleeping if needed (larger breeds may need to provide their own). Access to water to play in, drinking water, treats and training time. I am happy to provide the love your fur babies deserve while you enjoy your vacation!
“Courtney was wonderful with my sometimes nervous rescue pup. From the first pictures I could tell he was enjoying himself. I expected him to have a bigger reaction to seeing us when we picked him up. He had such a good time it was no big deal. That tells me how comfortable and happy he was.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cared for family pets, and helped my mom with her rover dogs, including walks and everyday care with love! I’m an online student with a flexible schedule. I work Mondays 11-6 and Wednesday 11-1, leaving plenty of time for pet care. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by creating a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, happy, and well looked after, just like they deserve.
“Second time watching our sweet senior gal doodlebug and Melissa was amazing! She was very communicative and supportive as this was the longest my wife and I have been away from our pup. Will definitely be using her for our boarding needs!”
About: I am a current vet student on my clinical rotation. I know small animal CPR and well knowledge and skilled in administering medications to dogs and cats. As a full time student. My schedule varies each week but willing to work things out to help take care of your pet. Some weekends free I have a friendly small size 13 year old dog. I can provide dog walks, play time, and company for your pet. I can also help administer medications if your pet has any medical condition that’s being managed
About: I’ve been a dog trainer for 5 years and frequently work with animal behavior, loose leash walking, and puppy basics. I’ve also been a dog groomer and bather for 3 years and have worked at various boarding facilities, so I have a lot of hands on experience with animal care and all the everyday parts of caring for dogs. I’ve also worked on an AKC German Shepherd farm doing conformation showing and training, and I’ve fostered 6 puppies that I trained and prepared for their new families — they still keep in touch with me daily! I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re in my care. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups **(Me and a roomate in the home I will be the sole and only caretaker of your pet throughout the week.)**I live just a few steps from Reaney Park and visit there frequently, so walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my routine. I have Sundays off every week and am happy to dedicate that day to extra time and attention with your pup. My home is dog proofed and set up to be a safe, comfortable place for your pup. I have two very friendly dogs who can interact with your dog if they’re comfortable with each other, or they can be put away if your dog prefers their own space. Both of my dogs are off-leash trained, but when a client’s dog is staying with me, the door does not open unless that dog is safely leashed. We’re 10 steps away from Reaney Park, where client dogs stay on a leash or long line the entire time. We also have a fenced balcony that your dog can enjoy with supervision if you’d like them to have access to it. Inside, there are plenty of appropriate toys to chew on and cords, surfaces, and other hazards are kept out of reach. Your dog will be supervised whenever they’re not safely crated. I love giving dogs as much freedom as they can safely handle, so please feel free to tell me your pup’s expectations, routines, and requirements. I’m happy to follow them and make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
“Mikayla was great! She kept me updated with photos of my dogs during their stay with her and let me know if there were any issues or concerns. She did great with my senior dog who has a lot of trauma in her past and problem solved any issues together. I would definitely recommend Mikayla!”
“Anna, Luke and their dog Taco were wonderful. They made Rio feel at home and were accomodating with our shifting schedule. We loved having the opportunity to introduce the dogs at a local dog park before just dropping Rio off. We would highly recommend them!”
“Lily was fantastic with my small Pomeranian mix! Ember is a bit nervous around new people, but immediately took to Lily and they had a great time together with lots of attention and walks. Communication was great too... I highly recommend Lily! ☺️”
“Jax stayed with Lindsay and her dog for a night while we were out of town. He seemed to have a blast! She took time to slowly introduce the dogs and he went on a nice long walk both days she had him. When he picked him up, he was happy and exhausted! Lindsay clearly loves dogs.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took great care of our boy Cyrus. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures when we asked for updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Brian! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats around the house, and it’s a tradition I’ve proudly continued into adulthood. Sadly, both of my beloved pugs passed away over the last few years. Right now, it's just me and my cat, Vader, so I would absolutely love to welcome a canine (or another feline) presence back into my home! I work at WSU and live a quiet, peaceful life here in Colfax. Because my home is a kid-free environment and I spend a lot of my time here, your pet will get plenty of focused attention, companionship, and love. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets, so I am committed to treating yours like family - providing a safe, comfortable, and fun home away from home. I’d love to chat and see if I’m the perfect fit for your pet! I work at WSU so it's a short commute each day, allowing me to spend more time at home. My weekday evenings are pretty quiet. I sometimes go out on the weekends but would be quite happy staying home if there is pet-sitting to do. I have a large fenced yard. I have a large linoleum dining and kitchen area that can easily be blocked off where messes are easy to clean up. I'm totally fine sharing my bed and furniture with a pet. It's a quiet, kid-free house well suited for even the most nervous dogs.
About: I have been growing up around dogs my whole life. As a child and into my teen years, I did the Dog project in 4-H for five years and helped lead the group. I have experience handling and training dogs for obedience and show environments, and I am comfortable with all pets! I have been house-sitting in the summers for many different dog-owners, so I am knowledgeable and experienced in providing care for these animals. My parents' dog (aka "my" dog) is a German Shorthaired Pointer and his name is Murphy. I spend a lot of time with him, and I have a special spot in my heart for all animals. I also spent a couple years co-parenting a little calico cat named Stitch with my best friend. I do also have some experience with reptiles, as I currently have one bearded dragon and one Pac-Man frog in my care. I am unable to have a dog or cat of my own at this stage in my life, due to money and living restraints, but I am thankful when I can spend time with others’ animals in this way. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend and give them lots of love! I am currently a Graduate Admissions Specialist / DSO at the University of Idaho! This means that I do work full-time (8-5 with a 1-hour lunch break) on campus on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and I work full-time from home on Thursdays. I do not work weekends and am usually very available if I have not marked it off on my Rover calendar. If your animal is okay/used to being alone for the work day, or can be alone for 4-5 hours at a time, I am the fit for you during the week. I can provide drop-in visits before and after work, and on my lunch break, or I am happy to stay in your home, where I will care for your pet before and after my work day, and during my lunch break if that is most comfortable! UPDATE: I have moved to Lewiston, ID as of 7/31/2026. I still commute to work in Moscow, ID for the time being, but will be available in the mornings before work and evenings after. I am currently looking for a full-time remote job or position located in Lewiston. I will update this section once my employment situation changes! If your pet requires more frequent attention, I might be your gal for a weekend trip! On the weekends, I do not work and have lots of time to hang around with your pet(s)! :) At the moment I am not able to be boarding at my own address, and I am open to house-sitting after I have established a positive face-to-face relationship with each client. I will adhere to any and all established rules and routines for animals in their home to provide the most comfortable and safe experience that is possible.

“Katherine was amazing with my cat and was very nice. She was very attentive and did everything as instructed. She also wrote out everything that she did and as I have had bad experiences with previous sitters, this eased my anxiety. Would definitely recommend!”
“Morgan was great taking care of my two cats while I was out of the country. I loved the notes she left in the app and the photos sent easing my mind. I have absolutely no complaints! Would rebook for my next vacation!”

“She did an amazing job taking care of my cat: brushing him every visit, giving him his hairball treats, and giving him all the attention. I felt safe leaving my cat with her. I will have her pet-sit for him again.”
“Corra was great! She checked in on my cat and made sure she had everything she needed while I was away. She played with her and sent me the cutest pictures! I would rebook with Corra again.”
“Genna is amazing. She has looked after our cat multiple times now and is dependable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Our cat immediately took to her. She keeps us updated daily and posts plenty of pics. We are grateful for Genna!”
“Ann did a fantastic job taking care of our kitties. It was so nice not having to worry about them while we were away. Ann was very communicative and really made the effort to get to know our quirky fur babies. I will definitely be requesting her services next time we travel!”
About: I’ve loved and worked with dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around them taught me how to understand their needs, personalities, and behaviors from an early age. I especially enjoy walking dogs and helping with basic training, whether that’s reinforcing good leash habits or teaching simple commands. Now that I’m in college, I don’t get to spend as much time with dogs as I’d like—so being on Rover is the perfect way for me to do what I love while making pets happy and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with each dog I meet. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, exercised, and loved when you're not there. I'm currently a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I am free almost all day aside from the mornings; on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am free in the late afternoon and evening. While I can’t have pets right now as a college student, I grew up on a farm where our dogs were exercised daily, brought inside, and crated at night. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your dog’s usual schedule closely—making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and a calm, secure environment so they feel comfortable while you’re away.

“Best sitter for my two cats! Kaelyn did a great job communicating, keeping us updated, was very kind, and while we had a bit of a process for her regarding our cats, she did a great job following directions and taking care of everything. Would love to hire her again :)”
“Chelsea was incredible. Due to a medical emergency, we needed a long term sitter at short notice. Chelsea stepped up to the plate, came to the house to collect my two cats and took great care of them for a full six weeks. She stayed in touch with pictures and updates. We are so grateful for her help and support!”
About: I have had countless house/petsitting duties since i was 12 years old. Friends, neighbors, family, and mutuals have all used me for reliable, quality animal care.

In my experience, I’ve taken care of young, old, scaled, feathered, tiny, huge…I’m confident I’ll be a fantastic caretaker for your furry companion(s).

I am currently a student Monday-Friday with the hours of 7am-5pm . I have open availability on the weekends. Open to questions one may have. I always treat space with upmost respect and pick up after myself. Like to keep things clean and orderly. Respect owners rules they have for pets.

I understand the unique nature of many cats & specific breeds, and truly believe I have a strong attention to detail; therefore, I understand the importance of requirements such as indoor-only cats, medication administration, and more!

“Brandi was amazing. We used her for daycare while in town for a conference. She loves dogs and it shows. My little mini doxie had never met her before and loved her. He was very excited to go play everyday. Augie was well cared for and I was updated multiple times a day with pictures. Highly recommend. I wish she lived closer to me so that I could use her services regularly.”
About: I've provided pet care for clients, friends and family my whole life. I love adventuring with my dogs ie walks, hikes, going to the beach. I use positive training and discipline techniques. I've taken dog training classes. I've cared for dogs of all ages and breeds. I love adding to my pack! I've a lot of availability! I have summers off and am often out enjoying the outdoors with my dog. I'd love to add to my pack! I have a large yard (unfenced). I keep new dogs on leash when outside. Lots of supervision and engagement. I do enjoy off leash play, but on case by case basis.
About: My experience with dogs has ranged from personal ownership: (raised with two mixed breeds, and owned a WHIPPET for fourteen years), to boarding dogs, to working at a doggie daycare, and working for a dog walking company. Currently I am a stay at home mom to three kids- so I am home most of the time, including weekends. If I do step out, for errands, appointments, and such, I will absolutely make sure your pet has had enough walks/potty breaks. We have a fenced yard, and a great neighborhood for walking. My family, and I will work consistently to make sure your pooch feels comfortable, and loved. That said, for safety reasons I choose not to share photos of my kids on my profile page- regardless, they are great with dogs! My time is flexible in that I can work around my families schedule to provide boarding for your pet(s). We look forward to meeting you/them! I can provide care for your dog(s), by following the schedule you have set for them. I love walking, and playing fetch with dogs! My kids especially love helping out with fetch. 😊 Pet care works easily with my daily, and weekly schedule, because I am a stay at home mom, and therefore home most of the time. In my home pets will be taken care of first and foremost with lots of love, (pets/snuggles). Secondly, pets will be taken care of by administering their daily needs of food, water, snacks, (if they have any), and meds, (if they have any).
“Mikayla is great! Sassy was clearly very comfortable and secure there. Their beautiful home has lots of room for exploring, two adorable little kids, and a very relaxed and calming vibe which made me feel confident leaving my dog with Mikayla. Strongly recommend working with this sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities for as long as I can remember. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide plenty of love to their pets, as well as working at the local animal shelter for a period of time. Whether it’s energetic puppies, mellow senior dogs or those with special needs. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality and I pride myself on giving them the same care and attention they’d get from you. My goal is to keep tails wagging, paws happy, and pet parents worry free while you’re away. My goal is to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away, whether that means long walks, snuggle time, or play sessions in the yard. I have my own dogs and 2 cats so I’ve got the routine down pretty well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow any routines or rules you provide to ensure consistency. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and strive for providing a safe, fun, and loving environment where they can relax and feel at home. I have two kiddos that are all about running the energy off as well so between them and the pets nobody is ever unattended outside.

“He came to our first meeting with thoughtful questions about my dog's needs, energy level, and routine, which immediately told me he takes this seriously. My dog is very high energy, and he handles him like a pro every single time. What really sets him apart is how communicative he is! He sends tons of photos every visit and always keeps me in the loop. I never have to wonder how the walk went. He's also always on time, which matters more than people realize when you're counting on someone. I'd recommend him to anyone, but especially if you have a dog that needs more than just a quick lap around the block.”

“I booked Morgan to help with my dogs post surgery. I was unable to walk without crutches. She walked them daily and did little things here and there that were probably no big deal to her but meant a lot for me! She was kind and easy to work with and my dogs absolutely love her!!”
“Hera was wonderful. Maggie-Roo had a great time on her walks. It's so great when one may attend an event confident that one's dog is receiving great and loving care. Thank you. Highly recommended.”
About: I had a dog when I was a teenager and now that I have moved out I have a cat as well named Horchata. I also have experience taking care of rabbits and guinea pigs. Message me for my rabbit/guinea pig rate! Many family members rely on my expertise to watch their fur babies :) I am the Carmelita Spencer Foods Lab manager on campus which is a part time position and going to school full time but would really love to do something I’m passionate about on my off time like working with animals. My availability is open to anytime I am not at work. I am good at getting animals to listen and calm down if need be. I believe that animals are very in tune with tone and that is the main way they know if what they are doing is good or bad.
About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds in my home. While I currently only have a cat, I’ve been the owner of several dogs, a couple snakes, a bearded dragon and I’m not afraid of really any type of animal. I have a pretty open schedule, single mom to a couple of boys and pet mom to one sweet cat. I love snuggling any animal. So I live in an apartment but very frequently go out to trails and parks with my kids, I would have no problem including your pet!
“Alayna is the best! We love her sweet energy, excellent communication and she’s wonderful with the doggos. She asks great questions, is prepared for the job and follows through as directed. Her love of animals is evident. Happy to recommend her for any pet gig!”
About: I have been taking care of pets for about 3 years for my family and friends. I mainly take care of any type of dog, and I mainly stay at my friends’ houses if needed, but i have also had pets stay with me as well. I am currently a college student and will be in Coeur d Alene for the summer time (May-August) and in Moscow during the school year (August-May). During the breaks I will also be back in Coeur d Alene, so I love to help out whenever I can! I have a line that goes around my back yard, and I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at my house. My cats are outdoor and indoor cats, and my dogs are indoor and very friendly.
About: I also constantly grew up with dogs in my life, small, big, old and young. I understand how to wear them out with every trick in the game I am a full time student but mainly taking online credits, most the time hanging out with animals is my joy, not a job or task. I live in an apartment and will not be hosting animals in my home. I would absolutely love too but with my situation I cannot.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a part of who I am. I currently have a 7-month-old red tri Australian Shepherd named Bear, and he’s taught me so much about working with energetic, playful pups! I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your dog wants a long walk, a game of fetch, lots of belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send plenty of photo updates because I know how comforting it is to see your pup happy while you’re away! Hi! I’m currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week. I absolutely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going for a walk, playing fetch, getting in some belly rubs, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I’ll do my best to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they feel loved and comfortable every visit. I’m a proud dog mom to my 7-month-old red tri Australian Shepherd, Bear, who has taught me so much about caring for energetic, playful pups!

I’ll treat your home with respect, keep your pet safe on every walk, and send plenty of photo updates so you can see how much fun they’re having. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your best friend is in good hands
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a pre-teen, but fell in love with animal care fully in my junior year of high school, after I began volunteering at the Everett Animal Shelter. Since then, I have changed positions and worked as a post-surgery volunteer with PAWS, transporting and handling anesthetized animals after they underwent surgeries. This last summer I also interned at PAWS again, this time as a Foster Care Intern, where I managed the foster care system behind the scenes. Additionally, I have worked with large animals such as horses while volunteering, managed and milked dairy cattle, and took care of pigs as my job on the side. I will continue to grow my portfolio, as I am a Pre-Vet Animal Science major at Washington State University with the goal of becoming a veterinarian one day. Currently, I am a full-time student at WSU and simultaneously work a job in the early mornings, so I am only available after 4-6pm depending on the day, as of right now. Due to limited time, my schedule best fits evening walks, nightly check ins, or one-night stays. My schedule is subject to change in December when I will return to Everett. Feel free to message me with any questions! Safety is extremely important during both house sitting & walks! For walks, I like to make sure dogs stay on the side of the sidewalk away from the road, as well as being properly harnessed and equipped with essential needs like poop bags and water incase of an emergency. I also keep a sharp eye out for other dogs to steer clear from unwanted interactions. Additionally, during house sitting, outside doors stay locked at all times, and your pet is watched 24/7. No escapes will happen on my watch! I am open to following any other rules, expectations or suggestions you have regarding your pet & house’s safety!
About: I have had pets my whole life and am ready to handle anything they may throw at me. I'm an avid hiker and I love being able to explore nature with furry companions.

I am happy to work with dogs, cats, exotics, and farm animals. I have worked with animal care in a professional setting for 4 years now, and feel confident in my understanding of animal behavior and care. I have 3 cats of my own, foster bottle baby kittens, and work on a farm in Lewiston with goats, sheep, and a grumpy Llama. Reach out and let me know what you are looking for in a pet sitter!

If any questions arise, I won’t hesitate to contact you to ensure all care is taken care of properly.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cared for family pets, and helped my mom with her rover dogs, including walks and everyday care with love! I’m an online student with a flexible schedule.

I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by creating a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, happy, and well looked after, just like they deserve.
About: I’ve been a dog trainer for 5 years and frequently work with animal behavior, loose leash walking, and puppy basics. I’ve also been a dog groomer and bather for 3 years and have worked at various boarding facilities, so I have a lot of hands on experience with animal care and all the everyday parts of caring for dogs. I’ve also worked on an AKC German Shepherd farm doing conformation showing and training, and I’ve fostered 6 puppies that I trained and prepared for their new families — they still keep in touch with me daily! I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re in my care. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups **(Me and a roomate in the home I will be the sole and only caretaker of your pet throughout the week.)**I live just a few steps from Reaney Park and visit there frequently, so walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my routine. I have Sundays off every week and am happy to dedicate that day to extra time and attention with your pup. My home is dog proofed and set up to be a safe, comfortable place for your pup. I have two very friendly dogs who can interact with your dog if they’re comfortable with each other, or they can be put away if your dog prefers their own space. Both of my dogs are off-leash trained, but when a client’s dog is staying with me, the door does not open unless that dog is safely leashed. We’re 10 steps away from Reaney Park, where client dogs stay on a leash or long line the entire time. We also have a fenced balcony that your dog can enjoy with supervision if you’d like them to have access to it. Inside, there are plenty of appropriate toys to chew on and cords, surfaces, and other hazards are kept out of reach. Your dog will be supervised whenever they’re not safely crated. I love giving dogs as much freedom as they can safely handle, so please feel free to tell me your pup’s expectations, routines, and requirements. I’m happy to follow them and make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all personalities and ages. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’m committed to providing personalized care and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a college student on summer break with a completely flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care, walks, check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pets throughout the week. I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and lots of affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment where pets feel happy and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I will accept any type of animal as long as information about how to care for it is given. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for about 6 years now. I can walk your dog as many miles as you need. If asked, I can also house sit which would include taking out the trash, bringing in the mail, cleaning, and checking on everything that you would need. I am CPR certified for both cats and dogs. I hope to meet your fur baby soon, thanks! I’m a student, so besides going to classes, all of my free time will be available for animals! I can do daily check ins if necessary as well. I like to follow the routine of the animal in their house. If you tell me what their usual is, I’ll follow it! I take lots of pictures and make sure to update the parents as much as possible so they are at ease knowing their fur babies are okay!

“Brandi was great! Peanut just took right to her and loved being there. Brandi sent me daily photos to see how Peanut was adapting. She loved being there and I will definitely seek out Brandi the next time we need a sitter for Peanut. I know she will be well taken care of and I will be able to enjoy my time away not worrying about her.”
“Katia was great and very understanding! Unfortunately my dog displayed symptoms of separation anxiety and my emergency contact ended up having to pick him up. Despite this issue, Katia was great about it helped me, a new Rover user figure out the refund and cancellation situation!”
About: I have loved and adored dogs since I was able to walk on my own. I have owned a large number of dogs over the years. My wife and I currently own a Brittany, a Golden Collie, and an old herding dog. My dogs enjoy a huge fenced back yard while also having 12 acres to run around and burn energy. I am a caretaker of my father in law and am at home during the day. I own three dogs that love socializing and meeting new friends I live on 12 acres can walk and play with your dogs. I have several dog crates for evening sleeping if needed (larger breeds may need to provide their own). Access to water to play in, drinking water, treats and training time. I am happy to provide the love your fur babies deserve while you enjoy your vacation!
“Courtney was wonderful with my sometimes nervous rescue pup. From the first pictures I could tell he was enjoying himself. I expected him to have a bigger reaction to seeing us when we picked him up. He had such a good time it was no big deal. That tells me how comfortable and happy he was.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cared for family pets, and helped my mom with her rover dogs, including walks and everyday care with love! I’m an online student with a flexible schedule. I work Mondays 11-6 and Wednesday 11-1, leaving plenty of time for pet care. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by creating a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, happy, and well looked after, just like they deserve.
“Second time watching our sweet senior gal doodlebug and Melissa was amazing! She was very communicative and supportive as this was the longest my wife and I have been away from our pup. Will definitely be using her for our boarding needs!”

“Mikayla was great! She kept me updated with photos of my dogs during their stay with her and let me know if there were any issues or concerns. She did great with my senior dog who has a lot of trauma in her past and problem solved any issues together. I would definitely recommend Mikayla!”
“Lily was fantastic with my small Pomeranian mix! Ember is a bit nervous around new people, but immediately took to Lily and they had a great time together with lots of attention and walks. Communication was great too... I highly recommend Lily! ☺️”
“Jax stayed with Lindsay and her dog for a night while we were out of town. He seemed to have a blast! She took time to slowly introduce the dogs and he went on a nice long walk both days she had him. When he picked him up, he was happy and exhausted! Lindsay clearly loves dogs.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took great care of our boy Cyrus. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures when we asked for updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I have been growing up around dogs my whole life. As a child and into my teen years, I did the Dog project in 4-H for five years and helped lead the group. I have experience handling and training dogs for obedience and show environments, and I am comfortable with all pets! I have been house-sitting in the summers for many different dog-owners, so I am knowledgeable and experienced in providing care for these animals. My parents' dog (aka "my" dog) is a German Shorthaired Pointer and his name is Murphy. I spend a lot of time with him, and I have a special spot in my heart for all animals. I also spent a couple years co-parenting a little calico cat named Stitch with my best friend. I do also have some experience with reptiles, as I currently have one bearded dragon and one Pac-Man frog in my care. I am unable to have a dog or cat of my own at this stage in my life, due to money and living restraints, but I am thankful when I can spend time with others’ animals in this way. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend and give them lots of love! I am currently a Graduate Admissions Specialist / DSO at the University of Idaho! This means that I do work full-time (8-5 with a 1-hour lunch break) on campus on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and I work full-time from home on Thursdays. I do not work weekends and am usually very available if I have not marked it off on my Rover calendar. If your animal is okay/used to being alone for the work day, or can be alone for 4-5 hours at a time, I am the fit for you during the week. I can provide drop-in visits before and after work, and on my lunch break, or I am happy to stay in your home, where I will care for your pet before and after my work day, and during my lunch break if that is most comfortable! UPDATE: I have moved to Lewiston, ID as of 7/31/2026. I still commute to work in Moscow, ID for the time being, but will be available in the mornings before work and evenings after. I am currently looking for a full-time remote job or position located in Lewiston. I will update this section once my employment situation changes! If your pet requires more frequent attention, I might be your gal for a weekend trip! On the weekends, I do not work and have lots of time to hang around with your pet(s)! :) At the moment I am not able to be boarding at my own address, and I am open to house-sitting after I have established a positive face-to-face relationship with each client. I will adhere to any and all established rules and routines for animals in their home to provide the most comfortable and safe experience that is possible.
