“I was really glad to have Courtney care for my dog Lizzy! And she is knowledgeable and experienced and I felt comfortable. One of the best parts is that she has children who love to play with dogs and a good backyard. This was my first need to leave her Lizzy anywhere and Courtney was close to my destination. It was a win-win-win. Thank you so much, Courtney!”
“Amity helped take care of our doodle at her house and even helped us with pickup/drop off which saved a huge load and headache with travel logistics! I felt so much more comfortable and at ease knowing my dog was getting attention at a house, even going on walks with other friends! Way better than a regular kennel/boarding. Another last minute thing came up, and our pup is going to go for another night at Amity's. Thanks!”
“Fin had a great time hanging out with his new friends. Mango was very responsive and flexible with drop off times and allowed Fin to stay an extra day. He returned clean, fed and happy.”
“Amany was absolutely incredible! She was able to accommodate us on very short notice, which was a lifesaver. From the moment we dropped off our two dogs, we felt at ease knowing they were in good hands. Amany provided consistent updates throughout the day, including photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that our dogs were happy, well-cared for, and having a blast with her! Her attention to detail, love for animals, and excellent communication truly set her apart. We couldn't be happier with the experience, and we highly recommend Amany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
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 taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
About: I’ve owned pets from bearded dragons, tree frogs, Guinea pigs, hamsters, and dogs big and small. I love animals and I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, tarantulas (assisting with shedded skin stuck), and exotic frogs. I’m currently working full time until August where I will then work full time as a pet sitter. I’m available after 5:30 PM M-F and the entirety of the weekends. I have a small dog that could keep your dog company. I don’t just consider it my responsibility to keep your dog safe, but mentally stimulated as well. Expect walks, play, pupcups, and hikes upon owners permission or request .
“Jamie was amazing! Milo came back absolutely exhausted from playing all weekend with Jamie and her Fritter. She responded to any behavioral concerns I had flagged prior, and he was a safe and happy camper.”
“Esiah was very good at keeping in contact with us before and during our dogs stay. She was very sweet and compassionate when our dog had a hard time adjusting. I would recommend her to anyone seeking boarding for their animal, 100%.”
“This was my first time boarding a dog and I gotta say... it was way easier and less scary than I thought it would be! Melissa is very kind and takes great care of the animals under her watch. Timber was actually sad to leave when I picked her up! Melissa is very quick to respond, gave regular updates, and is no novice to this work. She asked all the questions and learned more about Timber before the stay. Very happy with this service and with Melissa. Will be using again.”
“Super happy with how our pup was treated! Wendy (Alice) did a fantastic job taking care of Minima, taking her for walks, and keeping in contact while we were away. She knows what she is doing!”
About: I've had animals all my life. I'm here to relieve the stress of juggling your job, travel and the love for your companion!🐯🦁 I also have farm animal experience. I am semi empty nester looking for a little more on my "to do" list. I work but can make my own schedule for drop ins or house sitting I'm older then most Rover sitters. Established home and life in Pullman but able to travel and stay in nearby towns. Taking care of your pet is top priority in my home or yours. I'd care for yours as I care for mine. With your terms in mind.
“I took my Bella miko and my friend’s dog Mia for an overnight and extra day stay and they have a great time! Excited that I have someone dependable to watch sweet Bella Miko!”
About: I have seen and taken care of many different pets. I have a lot of energy and will show your pet the attention it deserves. I have been around many cats and dogs and have had birds in the past and currently have a dwarf gerbil. I am a 21 year old student at the University of Idaho. I have had all sorts of pets and really just enjoy the happiness they bring me. I have a part time job and school but am still pretty flexible. I am very detail oriented and like to think I am pretty responsible. I love pets so I would never want anything bad to happen to one of my pets or anyone else's.
About: What can I say, people are crazy but animals just make sense 😂 I've grown up with cats since I was an infant, they're truly the prefect animal, can't change my mind! I also have experience with dogs, some reptiles, assorted rodents including guinea pigs, and fish. Outside of that, I'm a fast learner, not afraid of much, and capable of following instructions. I'd love to meet your fur baby! I work full time, so we will just need to talk and figure out schedules. I can usually make it work. I have a reliable car I have a lot of yard space, most of it not fenced unfortunately but I have multiple runners. I have a 3 bedroom apartment in the bottom of a full sized house, so it's spacious and stays cool in the summer. I have a kennel but use it sparingly. My own dogs get taken to one of several parks every morning to run off energy, as well as car rides and walks around the neighborhood. They live their rams horn filled with yogurt or peanut butter and frozen, for their inside time! I try to keep things stimulating As for care in your home, you tell me! I'll adapt to your needs as best I can :)
“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!”

“Danielle was very attentive with my rabbit and provided excellent care. I was very pleased that she seemed respectful of my rabbit's territorial behaviors. She was reliable, thorough, and took the best pictures!”
“Hera did an amazing job checking on our cats while we were away, she was super communicative and we felt confident that they were in good hands with her. She gave them lots of attention and even got our more shy one to come out of her shell. We could definitely tell by their mood when we got back that they were well taken care of!”
“Morgan is fabulous. I was so worried Astra wouldn’t eat. I just adopted her in December and it took a whole month for her to really eat well. This is the first time Ive left her. Morgan had her on her lap after one day. The pictures she sent are just adorable. Astra truly took to her. I am so happy. It’s kinda stressful leaving your pet for the first time. This worked out well!”
“Sara is AMAZING! She took care of my 3 cats for 10 days and did more than expected. She was prompt with stopping by everyday after her classes to feed and check on the cats. She spent time each evening giving them snuggles and pets. Cleaned their bowls and litter box and sent me photos everyday. I felt very comfortable knowing they were well cared for while I was gone and by the photos it looked my cats were very happy too 😊 She is a vet student at WSU so I also knew that if any of cats were sick, she would take good care of them and get them any needed medical attention. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“She followed my complex instructions very well. My cats eat different food due to one having health problems. I also ask that they be fed particular amounts of wet and dry. They have to be separated during feeding, too. She handled all of this just fine. Both of my cats are afraid of strangers. They didn't seem scared of Maranda, and I think it is because she approached them differently than most people do. Thanks to her excellent work and rapport with my cats, I came home to contented pets.”
“Corra did wonderfully with my two babies! She was very professional, kind, loving, and caring. I loved receiving notifications and photos of each visit. I was happy that my older cat, Agustin, who is more nervous, loved Corra and her energy from the first moment. It's clear that she loves animals, and I can't recommend her enough!”
“Jessica was great. She stopped by just like we asked, and even went the extra mile to play with out more sociable fur babies. She made sure to get pictures of them as well so we didn't worry too much. I would definitely hire her again!”
“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 :)”

“Or boy always has fun with Brandi! He whines at the door to see her, and comes home happy. Thankful for the flexible pickup when our plans when longer than expected.”
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).
“Mango was amazing with our Benji. We flew in from California needing a few hours care to watch our previous Benji. This was my first time using Rover and so glad it was a great first experience. Thank you ? for taking great care of Benji.”
About: I’ve taken care of a good amount of breeds from huskies to chihuahuas. I have loved every single one that it melts my heart every time i see them. I have a dog of my own and she’s a sassy silly lazy girl. I enjoy cuddling with dogs and just having fun with them. Going on walks, playing with toys, watching a movie and going through a roller coaster of emotions, i can do a lot with dogs! i can also ensure that i will provide as much goofy photos of possible if wanted (i will be taking because its funny and brings up the vibes) I work super early so I’m available for majority of the day. I’ll leave at the crack of the morning and come back in the morning still! i’m able to take all dogs out for a potty break in between work as well and just give them attention if that’s all they need! I treat my pets like my fur babies. they are my children so i talk to them as if i have teenage kids going through their moody phase. with other people’s dogs i can present my self calmly or energized depending on what they need. i love including them in everything if they want. like if they want to help me fold laundry, cook, clean, or just watch a movie then we are all doing it as a group.
“Whitney and her dogs welcomed my pup and helped her settle in, even though she was nervous at first. She also kept an eye out to make sure everything stayed safe, since the pup was just getting acclimated to being around small children. I really appreciated this help getting the dog socialized, since I very much want her to be a 100% kid-friendly dog as she grows up! Thank you!!”
“Ayca was a wonderful dog sitter for our little poodle. Her calm demeanor was perfect for Molly and when we returned we could tell she had been in good hands. Thanks again for your kindness to our dog!”

“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.”
“Just a fantastic experience! Was in town for a day for a conference & had to check out of my dog friendly hotel that morning, so needed doggie daycare. Rosalie was responsive, professional, attentive & provided a great space for Dalton very convenient to university campus, not to mention a friendly gentle dog of her own. Beautiful home, amazing (fenced in) yard. I really felt that Dalton was in great hands. Would highly recommend & would absolutely book again with Rosalie.”
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: I have my own pet, and I grew up on a farm. I have cared for animals for years and would love to spend my work home office with your pet! Any day or time of the week works for me. I work from home so I can fill my time up caring for your loved one I have a private room and toys for your furry friend and live in a pet friendly neighborhood. Walks on the beach, or cuddles on the couch are my speciality.
About: I’ve worked for dog breakers and have been a pet sitter dozens of times. I love spending time with animals and always treat them with the best care. I work 6am-2pm Monday-friday, but am able to take off work or get a substitute when needed. If you need someone watching your animal for 1-5 days, I can fit that in with my work schedule. I unfortunately live in an apartment, so taking the dog or cat will be hard, but I have no problem going to someone’s house to check/take care/watch your animal!
About: When I was 11 years old I started volunteering at the Idaho humane society every weekend. At 15 years my mother and I became a registered foster family for dogs and cats in need . I am a junior studying Interior architecture at the University of idaho. I am in Boise for summer break! I take this job very seriously and love to care for your sweet animals ! Hello my schedule is very flexible! My internship Is remote and in office! I work at a small design firm so they are very flexible . I will care for the pets by keeping there allergy’s in notes and keeping them away from things they cannot handle with on walks . I will make sure no food or choking hazards will ever be left out.
About: My husband and I have had our own dogs, cats, and other more exotic pets for decades and we love them dearly. When asked if we have children, we often state, "Yes we do! Some have fur and some do not!" While traveling, we know all too well what a hassle and expense it can to obtain care for pets who need to be left behind. It also can be a distressing thought to realize they will be in a small cage for most of the day if you leave them at a traditional kennel. We love providing a better option for you when it comes to pet care. We've often tended the animals of family and friends throughout the years, and now have over a year of Rover sitting under our belts as well - not to mention having had many dogs of our own all throughout our marriage. My husband and I are glad to be able to open our home to others while they are away so that good care for their dogs can be obtained at a reasonable price. We strive to give our boarded furry guests the same experience we would like our own animals to have when we travel. Brady works from home with a flexible schedule, and thus he can provide fairly constant supervision and potty breaks. We have a spacious & grassy fenced-in area which provides plentiful room for sun, fun, play, and exercise. Our home is large enough to accommodate many dogs without us nor your pet feeling cramped. Dogs that are able to be off-leash often accompany us throughout the day while we perform various outside tasks, giving them even more time to roam and explore. We can also take dogs walking on-leash if needs be on a road that runs through the forested area of our land. If your pooch enjoys swimming, we have a pond they can take a dip in during the hot summer months. We are able to administer oral and injected medication to your dog, and we have cared for several of our own elderly dogs over the decades who have needed daily insulin injections and other medications. We can accommodate dogs with special needs as well, and equip dogs that are prone to escaping with Airtags to aid with locating them if an incident were to occur. Finally, we are always happy to answer any questions, so please feel free to contact us regarding any special accommodations or needs your pet may have and we will try our best to provide it for them. We know there are many options out there when it comes to caring for your pets, so thank you for considering us for helping you with this very important task! Since my husband works from home, either he or myself are available for the animals nearly 24/7 with the exception being times we go into town for errands. We usually crate feed our own dogs twice a day. We feed our Rover guests at the same time, but we can adjust times if needed. Dogs in our home use a doggy door which opens to a large & grassy fenced-in area surrounding our house. We also frequently let dogs out through the doors if they’re unaccustomed or unable to use an automatic doggy door. Our dogs accompany us throughout the day as we perform various tasks and activities on our 150-acre spread, which gives them ample time to exercise and explore. Guest dogs that are able to be off-leash without fleeing are always brought along on these excursions as well. Even though our fenced yard is very spacious, dogs that cannot be off-leash are taken on a lead to wherever we are currently working and tied there to allow them a chance to walk about and have a change of scenery. We allow animals on our furniture (some even snuggle with us at night), and have many dog beds placed throughout the home. We do have large animal crates set up if your dog prefers to sleep in a private space. If your dogs love to socialize and play, we provide several of our own playmates for them. There is often at least another guest or two who can join in as well.
“Stephanie did an awesome job with my dog. Definitely trust her again when I come back to town for work next time. She sent some photos mid day and a message letting me know how it was going. Couldn’t ask for anything more, you can tell she has a passion for pets. Thank you.”

“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.”
“Jessica is great. She took wonderful care of our dog and was very communicative and responsive throughout. Our dog really bonded with her. Definitely will book again!”
About: I had my own dog for 10 years before he passed. I occasionally foster for the Whitman county humane society so I have experience taking care of puppies and older dogs, as well as those who need medications. My availability is currently wide open and I would love to spend my time helping other people take care of their furry loved ones! I also have experience with different forms of leashes (i.e. gentle leaders, harnesses, etc.). I understand the importance of repetition for dogs and will do my best to keep to your schedules and the way you do things. Please let me know how I can help you and your pet! :) I am currently in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is wide open for the time being but will keep my calendar updated I live in a smaller apartment so it would be best for only dog at my place at a time. Will follow any rules in place for time spent at the client’s home.
About: I had a Pharaoh hound growing up for 15 years and lost her to cancer 4 years ago. I love going on walks, and I'm looking for some new companions to join me! I just got my bachelors degree in Zoology, and I've always been passionate about working with animals throughout my life. I also have 7 years of experience as a house and pet sitter and about 100 hours of volunteer work at the Spokanimals shelter. My schedule is wide open for the summer while I'm in town! Just reach out and let me know, any day, any time, and I will be there! I will respect the rules you have in place for your pet at your home and at mine. I will take the pups on walks at least once a day and let them go outside to potty every hour or as needed. I am happy to brush hair if you supply the tools. I promise to keep your puppy happy to the best of my abilities!
“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 have 6 years of experience as a veterinary technician in emergency and critical care. If your pets have any special medical needs, I can be your go-to sitter. I am also a current veterinary student at WSU. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals, from furry friends to exotics. During the summer my schedule is wide open. I work part-time, but will have plenty of time provide all of the care your pets may need. My extensive experience as a veterinary technician allows me to properly care for any pets with medical needs. My trained eye allows me to recognize if your pet is in any kind of medical distress, allowing you to relax while away from your beloved pets. I am well-versed in animal behavior as well, which allows me adjust to pets with anxiety or shyness.
“Noah is terrific! Our dog Quincy took to him right away and he clearly has a love for animals. We are thrilled to have found Noah and know Quincy is in good hands when Noah is caring for him!”
“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!!”
About: I have had both dogs and cats in my home my whole life. I am currently a WSU Pre-Vet student. My world revolves around my pets, and I will make sure your pets feel the same. I attend classes at Washington State University but still have plenty of time for walks and snuggles. I am available for longer stays on the weekends or during the week if an overnight stay is okay. I always monitor my dogs while they are outside because I do not have a fenced yard. Neither of my dog's sleep in crates, but I am more than willing to enforce that if needed.
About: Back home in New Mexico I would house-sit and pet-sit any times I wasn't working in the animal hospital. I am very comfortable with any breed, size, and age. I am especially happy to take care of pets who may need medications or who are anxious and might need a slower introduction and care. I am currently on summer break from vet school so I have all the time in the world to focus on your pets care! I am extremely flexible with my hours I'm available. One of my dogs is especially anxious around other dogs so I will not be offering care in my home. I am more than happy to stay with your pet in the comfort of their own home as long as they need! I will match wherever your pet is at comfortability wise. If they want all the snuggles, great! If they just want me to sit with/near them, great! Their happiness is my priority!
About: We are a dog and cat loving family and lots of playtime is guaranteed. We live in a good sized apartment with lots of space to run and play, inside and out. I’ve had dogs for over 15 years, small and large, young and old. We own one cat named Daisy, who is very calm and non-aggressive. We are very flexible and will accommodate most requests (administer medication, special diet, separate dogs if needed, etc). Potty breaks every 2-4 hours. Any breed/age/size welcome as long as they get along with other dogs and are potty trained and not aggressive. I am a non-busy college student so at home weekdays and weekends. We do regular potty breaks as needed and visit the dog park daily. We have a large unfenced yard. We will keep your dog leashed when outside unless they have great recall and we have your permission to let them run freely. I am home 90% of the time so lots of time spend with the animals. We have a routine of potty breaks, walks, meals, play time, and rest. We can accommodate any reasonable special requests, aside from normal care, walks, etc. Just let me know how to best take care of your pet and we will make it happen.

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals of all kinds and would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own! I’m currently majoring in Animal Science/Pre-Veterinary Medicine at WSU and am interning at the Whitman County Humane Society. My experience includes owning and caring for a wide variety of animals, including frogs, chameleons, chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, ducks, dogs, and more. I currently have two dogs of my own—a Chihuahua mix and an Australian Cattle Dog mix. I volunteered at the Humane Society of Utah for two years and worked at a doggy daycare for nearly a year, where I learned a great deal about dog behavior, socialization, and training. Before moving to Washington, I also worked as a receptionist at an emergency veterinary hospital for 1.5 years. That experience gave me valuable knowledge of veterinary medicine and helped me become comfortable working with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I genuinely love helping both pets and their people, and I enjoy putting my veterinary and animal care experience to good use. I have a huge soft spot for senior pets and understand the extra patience, attention, and care they often need. I’m open to caring for all kinds of animals and would love more opportunities to work with pets of every species, age, and condition. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priorities! Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule. I am currently a student at WSU and intern at the Whitman County Humane Society, which allows me flexibility throughout the week. I plan my schedule carefully so that pets receive consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medication administration, playtime, or simply spending quality time with them, I make sure every pet’s needs are met and that they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. My top priorities are safety, trust, and communication. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I pay close attention to behavior changes, appetite, and overall wellbeing. With my experience working in veterinary medicine, animal shelters, and dog daycare, I am comfortable handling pets with different personalities, ages, and medical needs. I provide regular updates, photos, and prompt communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care.

About: Currently I’m a vet student at WSU! I’ve just wrapped up my first year of vet school. My ultimate goal is to go into large animal medicine. I have lived with cats my entire life and have worked with dogs throughout high school and into college. I am currently fitting in part time animal care into my daily routine. It is something I enjoy doing and is an activity I enjoy making time for. In a clients home I would be ready and willing to feed pets and let pets outside. I would also be willing to play with pets and take them on walks.

“I was really glad to have Courtney care for my dog Lizzy! And she is knowledgeable and experienced and I felt comfortable. One of the best parts is that she has children who love to play with dogs and a good backyard. This was my first need to leave her Lizzy anywhere and Courtney was close to my destination. It was a win-win-win. Thank you so much, Courtney!”
“Amity helped take care of our doodle at her house and even helped us with pickup/drop off which saved a huge load and headache with travel logistics! I felt so much more comfortable and at ease knowing my dog was getting attention at a house, even going on walks with other friends! Way better than a regular kennel/boarding. Another last minute thing came up, and our pup is going to go for another night at Amity's. Thanks!”
“Fin had a great time hanging out with his new friends. Mango was very responsive and flexible with drop off times and allowed Fin to stay an extra day. He returned clean, fed and happy.”
“Amany was absolutely incredible! She was able to accommodate us on very short notice, which was a lifesaver. From the moment we dropped off our two dogs, we felt at ease knowing they were in good hands. Amany provided consistent updates throughout the day, including photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that our dogs were happy, well-cared for, and having a blast with her! Her attention to detail, love for animals, and excellent communication truly set her apart. We couldn't be happier with the experience, and we highly recommend Amany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
“Jamie was amazing! Milo came back absolutely exhausted from playing all weekend with Jamie and her Fritter. She responded to any behavioral concerns I had flagged prior, and he was a safe and happy camper.”
“Esiah was very good at keeping in contact with us before and during our dogs stay. She was very sweet and compassionate when our dog had a hard time adjusting. I would recommend her to anyone seeking boarding for their animal, 100%.”
“This was my first time boarding a dog and I gotta say... it was way easier and less scary than I thought it would be! Melissa is very kind and takes great care of the animals under her watch. Timber was actually sad to leave when I picked her up! Melissa is very quick to respond, gave regular updates, and is no novice to this work. She asked all the questions and learned more about Timber before the stay. Very happy with this service and with Melissa. Will be using again.”

About: I have seen and taken care of many different pets. I have a lot of energy and will show your pet the attention it deserves. I have been around many cats and dogs and have had birds in the past and currently have a dwarf gerbil. I am a 21 year old student at the University of Idaho. I have had all sorts of pets and really just enjoy the happiness they bring me. I have a part time job and school but am still pretty flexible. I am very detail oriented and like to think I am pretty responsible. I love pets so I would never want anything bad to happen to one of my pets or anyone else's.
About: What can I say, people are crazy but animals just make sense 😂 I've grown up with cats since I was an infant, they're truly the prefect animal, can't change my mind! I also have experience with dogs, some reptiles, assorted rodents including guinea pigs, and fish. Outside of that, I'm a fast learner, not afraid of much, and capable of following instructions. I'd love to meet your fur baby! I work full time, so we will just need to talk and figure out schedules. I can usually make it work. I have a reliable car I have a lot of yard space, most of it not fenced unfortunately but I have multiple runners. I have a 3 bedroom apartment in the bottom of a full sized house, so it's spacious and stays cool in the summer. I have a kennel but use it sparingly. My own dogs get taken to one of several parks every morning to run off energy, as well as car rides and walks around the neighborhood. They live their rams horn filled with yogurt or peanut butter and frozen, for their inside time! I try to keep things stimulating As for care in your home, you tell me! I'll adapt to your needs as best I can :)
“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!”
“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! ☺️”
“Ashley was great!!! I know my dog was very well taken care of in her home. She gave updates and responded right away when texted! We will absolutely be using her again for any future boarding!!!”
