Dog Walking West Bench

“Caitlynn was doing walks/drop in visits with my dog when I was out of town. She is very responsive and I know my dog is in good hands with her. This is my second time booking with her and I will continue to do so!”

Suzanne B.

“Tatum is an amazing dog walker. My pups love her! She is thoughtful and considerate, reliable, and truly an animal lover. Thank you for being there for us!!”

“Freedom was very nice and wet above and beyond expectations. I would definitely recommend her for walking your dog.”

Benjamin S.

“Tyler has been extremely reliable and a great help with my pups when I'm faced with long work days. My dogs are about 50lbs each with a tendency to pull a little when excited and I have no concerns about his ability to control both when out on walks and playing at the park.”

Dustin K.

“Arlo loves Ellie! He gets a nice mid day walk and Ellie gives me updates and pictures of their time together. Thanks Ellie!”

Kirsten M.

“She was so punctual, communicative and my pup loved her! So glad to have someone in the neighborhood for walks! Thank you 😊”

Victoria N.

“I was so worried about transitioning from Daycare to leaving my pup home all day and having Laramie has been so great. She made it super easy to set up the visits and always sends a photo or two so I know how he is doing during the day. She’s gives him his treat before he goes so he has something to do to keep him busy for a little longer which helps me feel better about the day alone. He’s been doing great with the transition and seems happy being home which is great!”

Tialha N.

“My dog Miso love Anastasia. He is looking forward to going for a walk every morning and very happy when he sees her. She is sweet and very good with dogs. Thanks.”

About: Your pup is in safe, experienced hands! I bring 10 years of dog care expertise, specializing in structured walks, timely feedings, and handling specific medical and medication needs. I have worked with all different breeds and am super excited to meet yours!! I currently hold a full time position but am super flexible off hours and on the weekends! I start later some mornings and get off early some afternoons, while also extended lunch breaks and I would love to utilize that time for taking care of your animals! I treat the home with full respect and ensure the animals get my full attention! I am comfortable stepping into a new environment due to my years of experience. I will make sure your pups get full attention, affection, love, and care!! That’ll include fresh water, nice walks, good meals, and any medication they might need(:

“Ciera and James have been very reliable in helping for Nahla Bear on my 14 hour days away for work while my partner is out of town! We are so appreciative that she gets out and is well cared for!”

About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. When I was a kid I used to be told not to pet certain animals because they were deemed “unfriendly”, most of them time people were shocked when their animal would warm up to me after making such a statement. Animals are much more intelligent and empathetic than some people give them credit for. Give me a choice between a room full of humans or a room full of animals, and I’ll take the room full of animals every time. I started pet setting when I was 12 and I’ve been doing it on and off ever since. I used to have a dog, sadly he passed from heart failure and I’ve just barely gotten to the point where I’m thinking about getting another. I miss his energy and miss taking him on hikes and long walks. Getting up early is not a problem for me. I live right by the greenbelt so we will be going on lots of walks! At the moment my schedule is very open. I have 2 cats who love dogs, but I know not all dogs love cats. I am more than willing to come over and dog sit and even bring you pup In during the times I’m there as long as your pup likes cats, otherwise me walking your pup and boarding at your house would be better suited for all parties involved.

“Our pup always looks forward to his walks with Lauren!”

“Celeste was great with our dog, and he adored her. She was very responsible and willing to learn the dogs new leash training. We definitely recommend Celeste.”

About: Hi! I’m 26, a Boise State graduate and former Honors College student, and I’m currently working toward my master’s degree. I also work at St. Luke’s three days a week, which gives me a really flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and pet sitting. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience with pets that have very different personalities and needs. I grew up with a cat, lived with a very reactive Pit Bull in college, and now have a 6-month-old Lab puppy of my own. Because of that, I’m comfortable with everything from puppy energy and basic training to dogs that need a little more patience, structure, and awareness of their surroundings. Having my own puppy has definitely reminded me how much work goes into raising a young dog! I’m very used to potty schedules, frequent walks, reinforcing good habits, keeping puppies entertained, and making sure they don’t get into absolutely everything they can find. I’m extremely responsible, organized, and dependable, but I’m also the kind of person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being cared for by someone who will pay attention to their routine, personality, safety, and all the little details you give me. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a reactive dog who needs some extra patience, or a cat who prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and treat them like one of my own. I work 3 days a week and very rarely on weekends so I am very flexible and have a really easy ability to move my schedule around to come see your pet. I am very good at following directions and take pet safety very seriously. I am sure I accommodate your dog whether that means you have a large backyard or you live in a small apartment and the dog is crate trained.

About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Cynthia, and I’m so glad you stopped by... I live in the beautiful North End of Boise and have been pet-sitting for years, caring for dogs and cats! Consider me your trusted ally who is dedicated to enriching your pet's daily experience while simplifying yours. I grew up with Saint Bernards, so handling large dogs is second nature to me. Our home was always full of animals—strays, rescues, and the occasional “foster fail” who became family. We made room for whoever needed it, and that mindset has stayed with me ever since. I’m comfortable with a full range of pet temperaments, whether they’re anxious zoomers or mellow seniors who just want a calm presence and some TLC. Got a skittish kitty? A bossy little lion? No worries, I speak fluent feline! With a background in cat enrichment and behavior modification, I have a knack for earning the trust of even the most standoffish and secretive cats. Whether your furry companion is shy, bold, or somewhere in between, I can read kitties well, and I always bring a calm, grounded energy that helps them feel safe and secure. I’m also borderline obsessive (in a good way) about secure entries and exits. If your pet is a known escape artist, trust that I’ll take special care not to let them out! Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, playtime, you name it. Also, please ask me anything if you can't find it in my profile! I'm happy to discuss extra services that you or your pet needs to feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away! I am recently retired early from the tech industry and now have time to give back to my community and neighbors! I'm available 7 days a week, and for overnights if needed and if the fit is right! Contact me anytime, and we can coordinate something that works, whether it's just hanging out with your pet or having a fun adventure! I've lived a lifetime with pets and rescued animals, so for me they are family. I treat all living things with respect, understanding, and care. I'm always thinking ahead of potential scenarios when planning any outings, making sure I'm prepared with extra leashes, treats, and/or a strong understanding of an area and what to expect.

About: I have walked and boarded dogs for 10 years. I am new to Rover. I love taking dogs for walks and getting them some exercise and enrichment. I work 9-5, with time for walks during lunch, before work, and in the evenings. Weekends can include up to three walks a day, including longer walks. At home, or with clients, dogs get a good watchful eye to ensure they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. With an adventurous pup of my own, I am careful to remove any “escape opportunities”

“Very satisfied. My dog looked happy in all the pics that were sent.”

“We’ve been working with Kalli for a couple weeks now and I can’t imagine working with anyone else. She’s kind and considerate, very good at communicating, and she treats my pet and home like her own. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for over 10 years. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, parrots, fish, and even ducks. I care for each animal as if it were my own, and prioritize not only their physical health but also their emotional! Animals are deeply emotional and are affected when their parents go away, so I promise to provide excellent care of your fur babies. Rest assured you have a reliable and loving person that you can trust. I work full time during the week, but that doesn’t stop me from taking excellent care of your pets. They will be seen at a minimum of 3 times per day, if not more. I like to see them before work, during lunch, and when I get off. I prefer to stay overnight to make sure they’re okay. If they need more attention, I can certainly accommodate! My job has the flexibility of letting me work from home if needed. We prefer to let Koda free roam around the house. We don’t have a fenced in backyard but are always taking her out on the leash. She is lower energy for a Doodle and easily bored, so we make sure to give her toys and treats! She loves watching kids movies too so we make sure to have those on while we’re not home. Whether your pup is at my house or yours, they will go out at a minimum of 3 times daily. If they need to be crated or separated from my Koda, we can make that happen too! I will adjust anything in my schedule or routine to accommodate your fur baby. ❤️ We allow dogs on the couch and bed because we love snuggling!

“Rachel is so awesome! She is reliable, communicative, and best of all she loves my dog! I don’t have to worry at all going to work every day because I know my pup is in good hands :)”
