Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Winstead Park

About: I'm the go-to pet-sitter for people whose friends all have pets. I've been dogsitting consistently in single- and multi-pet households since 2014, establishing a personal, trusted rapport with pets and their families. I've worked with pets young and old, engaging in regular exercise, medication administration, and plenty of belly rubs. I've been the proud owner of pets throughout my life, from a lovable German Shepherd to a spunky Yorkie. And I've watched a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages (senior pets are my current niche), from high-energy Brittanys to homebody New Foundlands, mini- and full-sized doodles, Boston terriers, poodle mixes, bully mixes, and cattle mixes. I live in Boise's Winstead Park neighborhood but have worked with clients in Eagle, Meridian, and Barber Valley — just ask! I'm available for low-risk meet-and-greets with your pets. I'm a remote worker with an active lifestyle (rock climbing, circus arts, etc.), so being away at a job doesn't get in the way of quality pet care. I'm available 7 days a week on short- and long-term notice, and rarely gone from the home more than a few hours at a time. I fully believe that keeping pets in your home is the safest, most comfortable option for them while you're away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, caring for pets and plants, bringing in mail, feeding fish, locking doors and gates, and completing other household responsibilities. Responsive communication is a big priority for me, so I respond quickly and check-in regularly with photos, videos, and messages while you're away. My friends, family, or partners are never in your home. Similar to being in the outdoors, I operate with a leave-no-trace attitude. I clean up after myself, wash towels and bedding, and run dishwashers before departure. In most cases, you'll never know I was there, except for a happy pet whose thrilled to see you when you get home. I do not offer pet-sitting or dog-sitting services in my home at this time.

“Adrianna was great! She was on time & spent good time with my animals. Always sent updates and cute pics. I felt peace of mind having her take care of my animals, and they seemed to do great & were much less stressed while I was gone.”

“Drew was perfect! He followed the directions and sent us very detailed updates. He shared several pictures each time he checked on our dogs, helping us feel better about leaving them behind. Drew is an above and beyond kind of person and that matters, thank you Drew!”

About: I am a 22 year old college student with more than enough time on my hands. I volunteer at the Spartanburg Humane Society, walking and playing with the "Big dogs". I have been walking dogs of all sizes for around 8 years now, learning the ins and outs throughout my experiences. I have recently raised a puppy, who's name is Rocky, and I have walked, bathed, combed, fed, and overall taken care of him for two years now. I guarantee a long, physically tiring walk for your dog, and an abundance of pictures! Volunteering at the Humane Society allows me too care for as many dogs as I can handle for hours on end. Walking these dogs when nobody else can brings me joy and fulfills me, knowing that I am making an impact on these dogs lives. I deal with dogs everyday, and I have dealt with just about every situation possible. I am very caring and good with dogs, and will give them an extreme amount of love! At your home, I will follow the exact steps you give me to walk, take out, or do whatever is needed of me to make your dog happy and well. I will take in mind you and your dogs preferences, and I will work with them to give your dog the best experience possible!

“Angela was great. She came and did a meet-and-greet with my pet. My dog has some specific needs and Angela accommodated all of them. She is great with communication and is hasty with responses. Would definitely recommend.”

“Melinda was excellent watching my 2 pups! She was on time - showed up when she said she would and stayed the amount of time stated! She took very good care of my pups - including my 14 year old Abby. She took time to throw the frisbee to my full of energy 3year old Winston. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend!”

“Niki has been so helpful with our dogs. One is elderly and has been watched by her many times. This recent trip was the first time we also left our 4 yr old lab for an extended amount of time. Niki took the time to make sure our lab got exercise and both of our girls were in great spirits on our return. Everything went great!!”

Nicole L.

“absolutely fantastic! she was always on time and never failed to send updates (especially funny pictures of the babies)! 10/10 will definitely use her every single time we leave town and have to leave the pups at home”

“Tatum is such a natural animal lover! On her first visit with our 3 dogs, they were cuddling and felt very comfortable with her. Tatum was very responsive with check in and out and provided great photos from her visit. We were traveling so it was really comforting to have Tatum come over for two visits during the day, where the dogs were in their own home. Thank you, Tatum!”
