“Ashley and her family went above and beyond for our pup, London! My husband and I needed to find a super flexible option to board him overnight while I gave birth to our baby girl, not knowing when exactly she’d make her arrival. Ashley was incredibly flexible with the timing and once I went into labor, my husband was able to drop London off seamlessly at her house and he had a blast playing with Penny! We were updated with photos and when my husband picked up London, Ashley and her family wrote the sweetest note and gave our new baby girl and London”
“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.”
“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”
“We needed care for our sweet coonhound while we skied Schweitzer for 3 days. Wendy took excellent care of our pup. He slept in her home and got lots of pets and affection. She made sure he had his seizure meds every am and pm. We are so grateful!”
“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!”
“Our dog Sam had an amazing experience staying with Isabelle and Fred. It was short notice, and they made it an amazing experience throughout. They took such good care of him, even made him Christmas dog treats! Highly recommend”
“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.”
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.
“Katie is wonderful! I was apprehensive about leaving our sweet girl Piper at a pet resort. Piper has a lot of anxiety issues and I just didn’t like the atmosphere. Did a little more research and found Katie on Rover.com. She made us feel comfortable at our first meeting. Showed us her home, yard and introduced us to her sweet dog Roofus. While we were away Katie sent us regular updates and pics each day which put our hearts and minds at ease. Piper looked happy and enjoying the walks and playtime. Katie allowed Piper to sleep in her bed and be on the furniture napping which was a big plus for our sweet girl to have that personalized attention. I would highly recommend Katie and will be using her again if she can stand waking up again every morning around 5am. Sorry Katie...?”
About: I have hands-on experience with high-energy dogs and know how to keep them happy, exercised, and mentally engaged. I’m patient and attentive, with a gentle approach that works well for both playful pups and older dogs who need a little extra care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. As a veteran Marine and someone who has competitively trained dogs since 2020, I approach pet care with structure, consistency, and discipline. I make sure pets are cared for with structure, safety, and attention to detail. I follow consistent feeding schedules, provide exercise and play tailored to each pet’s needs, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. With my background in competitive dog training, I also incorporate positive reinforcement and mental stimulation to ensure pets are not only well cared for but also engaged and happy.
“This was our first time boarding our dog, Lily, so we were a little nervous, but Crystal made the whole experience so easy. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated her flexibility with our pickup and drop off times. She kept us updated with pictures throughout Lily’s stay, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was obvious Lily was having a great time, she got lots of walks, plenty of attention, and came home happy and tired. She also has a great property and a wonderful family environment that made us feel confident Lily was in good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I work remotely and love taking walks throughout the day to stop looking at screens. I go for frequent runs, walks and hikes and love taking a dog with me, just let me know if you would like your pup to get extra exercise! I live in downtown CDA area with a large fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks! I only take in one dog at a time. I had both dogs and cats growing up and I'm a proud Aunty of all my friends dogs when they are out of town. I always look forward to it! If you have a strong high energy dog, don't sweat it. I had a retriever/chow mix for 14 years and I'm stronger than I look. :) Currently I work in real estate so I make my own hours and have plenty of time to walk your pup and give them extra attention I have a large fenced yard, a good size home for them to roam around, and a great neighborhood for long walks. <3 danyelle .
“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!”
“My dog Artie is in a very good mood after staying with Travis and his family in their cozy house. He also looks pretty happy on all the nice pictures shared by Travis and, certainly, would love to visit his new friends again. I fully share Artie's feelings and strongly recommend to anyone looking for a great dog care opportunity to get in touch with Travis.”
“We are exceptionally grateful to Laura for the love and care she provided for our older guy. This was our first trip leaving him with someone outside of our family and for a week; there was anxiety to say the least. Laura provided morning and evening updates, sending pictures of our guy enjoying his vacation too! She continued to give walks morning and night even when it the weather turned chilly! I would recommend Laura to all my friends and encourage you to reach out to her. She is now a part of our family and we will be using her in the future seeking all her love and care. Thank you, Laura!”
“Shaunett was amazing! She took wonderful care of our pup! Each day I received updates with how our dog was doing while we were away, the activities they did together— like playtime, walks and car rides— all of which our dog loves! Shaunett sent several photos and we could see how much our dog was enjoying their time together. I’m looking forward to having Shaunett watch our pup in the future— so much so that I will likely adjust my dates to meet her availability!!! Thank you!!”
“Boone had sooo much fun at Rebeccas! Their home has so much area for the dogs to run and be outside, it made me feel so good knowing he was outside so much! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics! I will definitely be using Rebecca again!”
About: I have had animals since I was a little girl and I’ve always had at least one dog for my whole life— until I lost my last sweet frenchie to Cancer in May 2026. My dogs are like children to me and I understand just how hard it is to find someone I can trust to watch them if I need to be out of town. I am looking to provide the quality care for others that I have been looking for. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. If you have unique scheduling needs, let me know and I will do my best to accommodate. I am a neat freak with a dog who sheds and drools uncontrollably. It’s work! But it’s so worth it. I understand the unique needs of others. As a special education teacher, I apply the same behavior principals to my animals. They need to earn your trust and can take time to do so. I am committed to creating a safe, trusting and caring environment that stays tidy!
“Amazing dog sitter! Super reliable, caring, and great with communication. We got regular updates and our pup came home happy and relaxed. It’s clear they truly love what they do. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

“I was away for work & had zero worries about my kitties thanks to Joshua. Great communication, I love updates & photos of the cats while I’m away. I will definitely book with him again!”
“Layla goes above and beyond when walking my dog Harley. She brought her to the park and spends extra time with her without me even asking. She's also very communicative with her updates. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“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.”

“Amanda did a great job feeding my pups while I was away! My dogs love her, and she enjoyed her time with them. She sent a Rover card and photos, which also provided the time she started and finished. I will definitely call on her again in the future. Thanks, Carol”
“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 do have a part time job. If that is not an issue, please keep reading bio :)* Hello, My name is Joy. My Life's passion is caring for animals, I am happiest to just be with them! I have 11 years experience of pet care, working on a farm with a variety of animals; dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, jersey cows,Angus cattle,horses,sheep, goats,pigs,pot belly pigs,chickens,chicks,ducks, rabbits, bunnies,Emu,zebras...You name it, I've probably taken care of it! I've had my pet sitting side gig for 3-4 years now. I am 31, I have yet to meet someone who doesn't call me sweet, and I think old people are the cutest thing ever, aside from puppies & kittens, of coarse. My desire someday is to work in a wildlife rescue, zoo, or/and own my own property to create a hobby farm/mixed animal boarding facility with fenced acreage for dogs and other animals to run around on and play. Thank you for considering me to watch your fur babies! Have a furbulous day ;) * For farms, my rate is $60/night. - That includes "farmwork", cleaning enclosures, stalls, pastures, cages, coops, feeding, watering, any grooming, all the love. If you just have a small/hobby "farm", just a few chickens, rabbits, or 1-2 livestalk, lets talk! Im flexible :) Some things about me: I do have a part time job, it is up to 6 hrs, 10-4 and my days off are friday and saterday. Other than my work schedule, your pets will get the rest of my time. I will make sure to spend enough time in the mornings caring for your pets, taking them out, spending time with them, going for a walk or playing or cuddling before I have to go. I will come home right after work, let dogs out, and make sure to feed the animals and let them out one more time before bed! I am very flexible to spend most if not all my available time with your pets. I'll play with them either in their yard or in the house. I like to give them treats. After the initial sit, I offer baths and brushing for your dogs and cats at the end of the sits, depending if they are comfortable enough with me or not. However, if your dog or cat is heavily matted, I will not try to brush those out as they need proffessional grooming.
“This is our second time with Allie, and we would definitely recommend her to family and friends! She was able to accommodate our last-minute reservation, left our home in the exact condition we left it and most importantly, reliably cared for our two cats <3.”
About: My entire life I have had an undeniable love for animals, especially dogs. For years my family and friends have trusted me to take care and watch over their beloved furry family members. I’ve had many experiences with big dogs, little dogs, reactive dogs, energetic dogs, and many many more. Your fur-babies will 100% be in great care with me💞 I currently work part time in the evenings so I may not be able to do boarding as often as some furry friends may need, but I am available for walking practically everyday I unfortunately am unable to do in-house boarding due to the safety of my Guinea pigs, but I am more than happy to care for your furry best friends in the comfort of his or her own home. I treat every animal as it they are my own. I am very adamant on requesting information about the dog in order to understand their daily routine with feeding, walking, and playtime. I also ensure I’m constantly monitoring them, they have fresh water access 24/7, and that I engage them in physical activity to keep them entertained. Additionally, I have experienced caring for dogs that need administrated medication, and I’m equipped with basic training techniques if you need help with puppies/ untrained dogs.

“We were in a pickle! We drove from Black Diamond WA to Elk Point ID and thought our dog would be ok in a hotel room while we attended a wedding. Our Yorkie is very spoiled and wasn’t having it! Carolyn saved our butts last minute and watched him whole we went to the wedding. Frank had fun and was just fine when we picked him up. Well cared for home with a fenced yard. Thank you so much Carolyn!”
“First time using app based on local recommendation. Traveling with an extended stay. Had a meet and greet with Jackie before doggie day care to settle my nerves. Warm and friendly and bonded with Ranger immediately. Met her at house next day for drop off and she was very attentive asking questions about allergies and concerns. Felt very comfortable and at ease with leaving Ranger there for a “staycation”. He settled in quickly and Jackie kept me updated with text and pics and how he was doing throughout the day. The pics say it all. Highly recommended and hope we have another opportunity in the future.”

“Absolutely wonderful! We are so thankful for Jessica this week and Fury cannot wait to come back! Exceptional service for our little man, she went above and beyond as he is still learning potty training, walking on the leash, etc. He played hard, got to socialize and meet new friends. We loved our rover cards getting to see what he did for the day! Thank you so much, we really appreciate knowing he is in such good hands!”
“Luna had such a great visit! Ashley’s Labradoodle and Luna the Goldendoodle hit it off in their Huge backyard. Perfect. Ashley is extremely attentive and an easygoing. Will definitely be back.”

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.
“Robin had a great house setup for our puppy to come and play. Her yard.was fully fenced, with two different areas, and her dogs were so kind. My puppy really enjoyed playing with her dogs and using their beds for some serious energy recharging. I would highly recommend Robin to care for your pets, I know we will use her again if we are.in the area.”
“Brutus seemed very happy and taken care of during and after his stay with Sherin. She was very accommodating and worked us in last minute. Thanks again for taking good care of him!”
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!

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: Raised around show dogs, with 30 years hands‑on training experience. Professional educator/teacher. Loving, dog‑only care—walks, enrichment, adventures, or calm indoor comfort, individually tailored. Huge Heart. My aunt raised dogs for show in US and Canada - and she was an emergency vet tech. I helped her with her doggies all my growing up years and learned a lot. Working on getting certified in doggy training. Have human BLS (basic Life Support for medical professionals) but also know doggy CPR and basic medical-can give shots and meds. I just have a huge heart and love to love on the doggies. Sitting same rate as boarding and sometimes easier on the doggies. I just want them to have their routines, pets, loves, favorites (if it's a walk or snuggles) - just be as anxiety free, loved on, and happy as possible while you are away. Currently my schedule is very open for all work. If this does not fill the schedule, will need to adjust around other work. But this is my current priority. If other work is needed, pets still come first and receive 150% love, care, and attention. My doggy is on the rainbow bridge. It is just me in the home. I follow the owners rules and wishes. I want to keep to their training and routines. I don't want the owner coming home to a doggy with bad habits or upset tummy. I want to keep the same diet and structure. I'm a professional, certified teacher and past hospital worker. Absolutely love to love on doggies. I have over 50 five-star reviews on airbnb and lots of other references and letters of reference I can provide you.
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.
“Thank you Gabby and Kade! Very reliable and flexible. I could tell fin was well walked when I got home from work and I appreciated it so much that they came for a meet and greet before his scheduled walks as well.”
About: Hello! We are looking to help people out in our free time with pet care. Please note we can only accept small dogs who are good with cats for day care/boarding at this time. Please let us know a few times you are available for a meet and greet before hand to ensure it is a good fit! We have two cats and one dog; and between the two of us have many years of experience with cats, puppies and senior dogs. Audrie also volunteers at the local pet shelter and has gained a but of knowledge in dog training. We will be on time, provide lots of photos while you are away, and be certain to follow your instructions exactly as written. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! Between the two of us, we are very flexible. Our only routine is walking our dog in the morning and evening, and feeding our animals twice per day. We have a fenced backyard, and let our pets go out when they want, but mostly they stay inside. We take our dog on two walks daily. We will follow whatever direction you have. Because of our cats, we can only accept small dogs into our home for boarding, but can go to your home as needed.
About: With years of pet care experience, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and needs — from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. I have experience supporting older dogs with gentle walks, extra patience, and plenty of love. I’m also skilled in administering medications, whether pills, or drops and always follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet safe and comfortable. Your dog’s happiness, health, and tail wags are my top priority! I am currently working part time as an RN, so extremely flexible with scheduling! Days and times fluctuate throughout the week so I am great at communicating to make sure all pets needs are met safely and efficiently. Large home with plenty of room for furry friends. A fenced in backyard and a very friendly English Cocker Spaniel who is always looking for new friends! I am also able to crate or keep pets separated if there is any need for that as safety comes first.
About: I used to work as an assistant manager at a pet shop for over two years which has been an incredible learning opportunity for me. I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 10. Friends and family trusted me to feed, bathe, and walk their sweet babies. As for reptiles, I have been taking care of and rescuing reptiles, mainly bearded dragons and leopard geckos, for over three years now. Because of my experience at a pet shop, feel free to inquire about caring for other pets. I'm working full-time, so I can fit in walking/caring for your furry or scaley babies on the weekends, early Monday-Wednesday, and later evening on Thursday and Friday. I do not offer pets coming to my residence. Regarding care for my personal pets though, my dog has dietary restrictions, so she gets pumpkin puree, goats milk, unsalted beef broth, and sardines mixed with her grain free kibble. These help her poops stay solid, strengthen her stomach, as well as provide some extra protein. My bearded dragon gets a fresh salad every day that rotates ingredients every week and adores the dubia roaches that I breed myself. My leopard gecko is obsessed with mealworms that I have to keep buying because he keeps eating them before they can breed a proper amount. Both of my scaly babies are in bioactive-ready tanks that I have so much fun redecorating every couple months with new wood and rocks. With my experience of working in a pet shop and having a pet that has their own special needs, I've learned to take great care of the individual need of each and every pet under my care.
About: I have personally owned several dogs and trained dogs since I was a child. From puppies to adult dogs. Cattle dogs do Dobermans. I feel that I have a way of communicating with and understanding what dogs needs. I'm currently working part time. After next week I'm available most any day of the week. I am able to travel to most locations in the Phoenix metro area. I have a dog yard and plenty of safe place to walk dogs. I understand what the needs are for dogs such as taking them out and feeding them. Making sure they have a peaceful environment.
“Kaylee was amazing with my pups! She spent a lot of time getting to know them with lots of hugs and kisses then took them on their walk. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!”

“Ashley and her family went above and beyond for our pup, London! My husband and I needed to find a super flexible option to board him overnight while I gave birth to our baby girl, not knowing when exactly she’d make her arrival. Ashley was incredibly flexible with the timing and once I went into labor, my husband was able to drop London off seamlessly at her house and he had a blast playing with Penny! We were updated with photos and when my husband picked up London, Ashley and her family wrote the sweetest note and gave our new baby girl and London”
“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.”
“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”
“We needed care for our sweet coonhound while we skied Schweitzer for 3 days. Wendy took excellent care of our pup. He slept in her home and got lots of pets and affection. She made sure he had his seizure meds every am and pm. We are so grateful!”
“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!”
“Our dog Sam had an amazing experience staying with Isabelle and Fred. It was short notice, and they made it an amazing experience throughout. They took such good care of him, even made him Christmas dog treats! Highly recommend”
“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.”
“Katie is wonderful! I was apprehensive about leaving our sweet girl Piper at a pet resort. Piper has a lot of anxiety issues and I just didn’t like the atmosphere. Did a little more research and found Katie on Rover.com. She made us feel comfortable at our first meeting. Showed us her home, yard and introduced us to her sweet dog Roofus. While we were away Katie sent us regular updates and pics each day which put our hearts and minds at ease. Piper looked happy and enjoying the walks and playtime. Katie allowed Piper to sleep in her bed and be on the furniture napping which was a big plus for our sweet girl to have that personalized attention. I would highly recommend Katie and will be using her again if she can stand waking up again every morning around 5am. Sorry Katie...?”
“This was our first time boarding our dog, Lily, so we were a little nervous, but Crystal made the whole experience so easy. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated her flexibility with our pickup and drop off times. She kept us updated with pictures throughout Lily’s stay, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was obvious Lily was having a great time, she got lots of walks, plenty of attention, and came home happy and tired. She also has a great property and a wonderful family environment that made us feel confident Lily was in good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I work remotely and love taking walks throughout the day to stop looking at screens. I go for frequent runs, walks and hikes and love taking a dog with me, just let me know if you would like your pup to get extra exercise! I live in downtown CDA area with a large fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks! I only take in one dog at a time. I had both dogs and cats growing up and I'm a proud Aunty of all my friends dogs when they are out of town. I always look forward to it! If you have a strong high energy dog, don't sweat it. I had a retriever/chow mix for 14 years and I'm stronger than I look. :) Currently I work in real estate so I make my own hours and have plenty of time to walk your pup and give them extra attention I have a large fenced yard, a good size home for them to roam around, and a great neighborhood for long walks. <3 danyelle .

“My dog Artie is in a very good mood after staying with Travis and his family in their cozy house. He also looks pretty happy on all the nice pictures shared by Travis and, certainly, would love to visit his new friends again. I fully share Artie's feelings and strongly recommend to anyone looking for a great dog care opportunity to get in touch with Travis.”
“We are exceptionally grateful to Laura for the love and care she provided for our older guy. This was our first trip leaving him with someone outside of our family and for a week; there was anxiety to say the least. Laura provided morning and evening updates, sending pictures of our guy enjoying his vacation too! She continued to give walks morning and night even when it the weather turned chilly! I would recommend Laura to all my friends and encourage you to reach out to her. She is now a part of our family and we will be using her in the future seeking all her love and care. Thank you, Laura!”
“Shaunett was amazing! She took wonderful care of our pup! Each day I received updates with how our dog was doing while we were away, the activities they did together— like playtime, walks and car rides— all of which our dog loves! Shaunett sent several photos and we could see how much our dog was enjoying their time together. I’m looking forward to having Shaunett watch our pup in the future— so much so that I will likely adjust my dates to meet her availability!!! Thank you!!”
“Boone had sooo much fun at Rebeccas! Their home has so much area for the dogs to run and be outside, it made me feel so good knowing he was outside so much! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics! I will definitely be using Rebecca again!”
“Amazing dog sitter! Super reliable, caring, and great with communication. We got regular updates and our pup came home happy and relaxed. It’s clear they truly love what they do. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Oscar spent a few days with Heather and was clearly well looked after, relaxed and happy. The communication was great and it's always nice to receive pictures and updates—I can only recommend Heather and would happily book with her again. Cheers!”
“Our dog came home happier and more relaxed than ever after his stay—Kelly and her family showered him with love and attention the entire time. She sent the sweetest daily photo updates; we couldn’t ask for a kinder, more trustworthy person to watch our fur baby!”
