Dog Sitters in Bonner County, ID

My dog LOVES Forest Acres! I am so happy I found Chelsea - she is amazing with all the dogs and I can tell she loves what she does. There is so much room to run and play. My pup is so happy and exhausted when I pick him up - I have a huge smile when I leave every time!

Our pup had a great extended vacation at Forest Acres Dog Stay. She was treated as if she were in her own home with room to roam and get comfy. The animals are vetted well and our golden retriever had plenty of fun friends to play with during her stay.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. We are so lucky to have Chelsea and her Forest Acres Dog Stay. Our pup enjoys her time at Chelsea’s so much that sometime it seems like she doesn’t want to leave. Chelsea is always quick to respond and is so great with the dogs. Her property has a lot of room for the dogs to run and play together. We love getting videos and pictures of the pups from Chelsea while we are away. I highly recommend Forest Acres Dog Stay!!

Chelsea is incredible! First off, I was expecting Chelsea’s home to be kind of a scrappy and smelly…. Um it is immaculately clean, but also totally dog friendly. I had no idea anyone could take care of my dog as good as she does. Huckleberry (my golden) loves going to her house! It’s really a vacation for him. He isn’t sad or stressed when we leave. He gets special treats like deer meat for dinner some nights, he gets to sleep near Chelsea (which he loves), he has other fun dogs and toys to play with. Plenty of room to run around and play. Chelsea sends me pictures and videos of Huck and how he is interacting with the other dogs. She is a dog lover and it shows. Chelsea is a really special human, so happy I happened to stumble upon her number when googling dog sitters. She will be our forever dog sitter as long as she will have us. Forever customers.

My dog had a wonderful vacation of his own at Forest Acres Doggy Day care. He got to be in a lovely home and treated like family. This was his first time being away from home while we were gone and it was like Doggy camp and he had a blast. Thank you Chelsea

An absolute gem of a place! Chelsea took wonderful care of our two dogs while we adventured on our bikes for the day in Sandpoint. The property is so well set up, the dogs got to play outside and cool down inside. Chelsea was extra sweet to our nervous older dog, which was so appreciated and made us feel safe and comfortable leaving her for the day. We will 100% be using Forest Acres again for any boarding needs if we find ourselves in the area. Thank you, Chelsea!

We left our 11 month old golden retriever with Chelsea for 10 days. Each day, Chelsea would send us videos and pictures of our girl playing with the other dogs. Her communication with us was top notch throughout the entire stay. When we picked up our dog, she was bathed and so clean! The yard is perfect for the dogs to play, and the house is set up in a way that the dogs all have space to play and sleep. We will definitely be using Forest Acres again. Thanks so much, Chelsea!

We have used Forest Acres for both doggie day care and overnight boarding. Cookie loves Chelsea and all the dogs that are there. This was the fist time we have boarded our dog and Chelsea made us feel at ease, she runs a very well organized business and is awesome with dogs.

Chelsea and Forest Acres Dog Stay are the BEST home-away-from-home EVER! We could not believe how happy and comfortable our pup was with Chelsea and all the other dogs, some hers and some visitors also. Chelsea is clearly a dog-whisperer and is in tune with each dog individually and knows what’s good for the varying play groups as well. The property is so well maintained and perfectly set up for your dog’s enjoyment, which we could see in every photo and video, not to mention our dog’s smile too!! We cannot say enough about how awesome Chelsea is!!

What a wonderful place for a dog. Our dogs had a great time. We will definitely be back. We highly recommend Forest Acres Dog Stay.

Erik cared for our 2 dogs for a month while we travelled out of the country. He is a fantastic dog sitter and is very comfortable handling dogs and took our pooches on a number of hikes and adventures with frequent pics and videos of their outings. We would highly recommend Erik and Powder Pups and he took great care of our dogs and home.

Erik Yingling of Powder Pups. Took great care of our dog Prince while we were out of town on vacation! Took him on walks, played with him and made sure he was well fed. I highly recommend his dog sitting services!!

Erik did an amazing job with our 3 big dogs, and all at the last minute! We were in town for a family wedding and suddenly found ourselves in need of doggie day care for 3 dogs over the course of 2 days. And it was 4th of July! Erik agreed to take all three dogs at the last minute, and he did such an amazing job. He took them swimming, playing, napping in the shade. He sent us pictures every few hours and reassured us that the dogs were in good hands. He even brought the dogs to us at the end of the day. If you want quality, compassionte, and professional dog care in Sandpont, call Erik @powder pups of North Idaho! I will be forever grateful to Erik for saving our trip!

Erik was awesome. We were in town for a celebration of life and called Erik to drop off our yorki-poo. She has never been separated from my husband and I but Erik made the drop off easy and stress free not only for her but us too. He sent pictures and update of what they were doing. The whole experience was easy.

The best dog care! I always feel confident that my dog is happy and well cared for.

Lewis O. Potamus is a 1 year old American Bully (American Baby…more like it). He is adored by our family, goes to work with my husband and I and is very…very spoiled. When I first asked Debbie about booking Lewis she politely declined and told me the safety of the dogs in their care was their number 1 priority and they don’t take pit breeds. I wasn’t offended at all, and appreciated a facility that would carefully vet breeds and dogs. I explained to her Lewis’ disposition, showed her some videos of Lewis playing with my sister’s doodle and my in laws boxers (all our dogs are with us always and we take them to eachothers homes- all are very well socialized and trained). Debbie agreed to take Lewis on a trial bases and we have used Cozy Kennels 3-4 times now. They take such good care of the puppies in their care!!! Lewis is always so happy when we pull in!! He very social and stayed at another kennel once when Cozy was booked and he didn’t get interaction with other dogs and was not happy. At Cozy Kennels, he gets play time with the other dogs and we know he is in good hands!!! Thank you for putting the safety of the dogs in your care above all else. 5 stars ⭐️

I never leave reviews but this place is deserving. This kennel is spotless, the owners are incredibly caring and answer my texts very timely. It is popular and well liked enough that you'll need to book in advance as soon as you know when you'll need them. I never worry about my dogs wellbeing when I drop them off. I know they'll have a blast and be in good hands and that I can get updates through text and sometimes photos as needed to reassure me.

My Gracie came home from Cozy Kennels exhausted from playing with her friends. They love what they do❤️🐶❤️. They encourage you to call and check on your pet, they even sent us a video of Gracie in the yard with the other dogs. We were not sure how she would do because she hasn’t been around other dogs, so they eased her in and she had a marvelous time😊100% recommend this Kennel ( pet resort )❤️

We always take our dogs here for "camp" when we're out of town. They are well cared for and come home exhausted. What more can you ask for?! Thanks Cozy Kennels!!

It has been a few years since we've had our akbash, Kodi, stay with Dave and Debbie (we have a family member that does not travel anymore, and she stays with our dogs when we leave) however we always recommend Cozy Kennels to friends. Kodi routinely came home very happy, and not showing signs of stress. The first time he stayed, Dave sent us a few videos of Kodi playing with other dogs. It was so sweet being able to SEE him, and know for sure he was doing well. The most recent time, Dave sent Kodi home with a squeaky llama he had fallen in love with 😆 I always appreciated that Dave allows you to see the inside of the kennel area, too. Makes me nervous when kennels refuse to let you see the actual place your dog will be staying.

The kids love going to "camp", very awesome family and kennel. Rates are very affordable especially for more than 1 dog.

We LOVE cozy kennels! You could not find a safer, more professional, cost effective and overall FUN experience for your dogs! We board our 2 adult shepherd mixes here and not only has it improved their social skills but they are always beyond excited to go! We always get updates directly from the owners including videos of our girls running around on their (big!) property with all the other doggies! We are so thankful for them and will continue to use them as long as we live in WA!

Every single time my dogs come home from their visit, they are happy and exhausted from playing! One of my dogs is a nervous girl, and I used to board her somewhere else. She'd come home depressed and with diarrhea for days. Not once, ever, has she had a problem with Cozy Kennels! She comes home just as happy and tired as our young dog! We are customers for life!

I am very impressed with Cozy Kennels. My dog has never been kenneled and I was worried about being separated from her. She was just fine when I picked her up. Dave actually sent me a video of her playing with other dogs. I will definitely be using them again. They rock!!

I am very un-trusting with anyone with my babies. Whenever we go out of town and have to kennel our dogs, I stress and worry the whole time. Usually, when we get home I feel bad because our dogs smell horrible and have crazy looks in their eyes like they just spent the whole time looking at bars. I can honestly say that leaving our pups with Debbie and Dave at Cozy Kennels was such a great experience! First off, I felt comfortable knowing that they were on a personally owned property! Someone that can take their personal home and turn it into a boarding facility for dogs HAS to be a dog lover! When we dropped off our dogs, Dave walked us through the property. It was very clean and fenced off properly. Our dogs were immediately excited and running around wanting to play and sniff everything. While we were away, Debbie sent me updates on how they were doing. I even received a video of them playing with the other dogs! They looked like they were having a blast! This definitely helped to ease my discomfort with leaving them with strangers. The pricing was very reasonable and affordable. When our dogs were picked up they were very happy. We could tell that they were taken care of while we were gone. I would definitely leave them with Debbie and Dave again!

Our dogs love Tails Inn! Our girl doesn't do well with other dogs, so we love that the dogs play only with their family dogs and with the staff, instead of lots of stranger dogs playing together. Ours just can't handle that and I'm so glad Tails Inn exists! The owner is so kind and happily will administer meds and special treats and meet all of our dogs' needs. I couldn't recommend Tails Inn enough!

Lucy spent the weekend with Andee . She wears a Fi collar so it tracks her activity. She was a busy girl running and being active, which is important being a Shepherd/ catahoula mix. Thank you Andee for taking good care of Lucy. We appreciate it. I would recommend Tails Inn for your boarding needs.

Took care of my pup very well. Always were happy to update me on how he was doing. Definitely would recommend!

Always a great place to take our dog max he has been going here since he was a puppy 🐶 super nice staff and accommodating. Max might like being there more than at home he is always excited to go. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ …

I highly recommend boarding your pet here! We have a rescue dog who has some ~social challenges~. We made sure they were fully aware of his issues before our trip and they were entirely comfortable with handling it. He did great there! Absolutely no issues. Thankfully, they have genuine animal experience so truly know how to handle the animals properly. It is nice to have a boarding facility where I know my pet is happy and safe!

We have had issues with boarding our anxious dogs in the past that led to emergency surgery and they no longer do well with other dogs. Finding a boarding facility that can facilitate our needs with anxious dogs that can’t intermingle has been hard to find, but Tails Inn has always done a great job with our dogs and accommodating us! I highly recommend them!

Would board my dogs there again. Very accommodating, took both dogs on short notice. Only surprise for us was cash or check only.

My name is Biscuit and I am a very handsome Westie. My family keeps calling me cute, but please remember that I am HANDSOME! So my family and I all went down to Idaho for several days. Because they were going to Silverwood Theme Park one day and shopping another, they needed to find Doggie Daycare for me for those days. My Mom found Tails Inn in Rathdrum. I really loved AnnDee and Diana. They played with me LOTS and I had a yard to run around in. And when I got tired, I had my own place to chill out! I liked it so much that on the second day I was so excited that I forgot to say goodbye to my family when the dropped me off! I don’t remember much after they picked me up both days cause I really needed a good long nap! For all you other doggie boys and girls out there, tell your families about Tails Inn. It was the best and I can’t wait to go back next year!

Tails Inn is such a blessing to us! We have four dogs and AnnDee takes such wonderful care of them. The dogs are safe, well cared for, and we don’t think twice when we need a getaway. Worry-free for us and the dogs. I highly recommend this kennel and our community is lucky to have Tails Inn!

Tails Inn is great! My dog had a very good time while I was out of town. I felt very safe to leave my lab Belle in their care. They seemed very friendly and they care about your pet as if it was their own. My dog was happy when I went to pick her up and didn't seem like she was anxious to leave which means she enjoyed her time there. They made sure she had her daily supplements for her joints. I will be using them again in November when I take a short trip. It makes me feel so good to know that my dog is getting great care when I am not there to do so. She is getting pretty old but I know they will take good care of her. I recommend that if you need boarding for your dog this is the best!

The only reason I am giving a one star review is to you Madison who is one hundred percent right in how hardy was handled. I no longer work for them as I can't any longer. You are right though hardy was so bad it should have never happened. I am giving a one star review. Not to the groomers but to the people who work the back. I left there and I will never bring my dog there again. My standards are much higher and my husband said once I left my dog will never go back there. I appreciate his decision as it's best. It's way too hot in the summer and she always came home with almost all her food and all her treats which shows she wasn't given what I sent with her. Very disappointed in the service and that is why I had to leave. Sorry to my clients who want me and sorry to the front staff who were told they can't talk about me or tell them where I went as I was personally told this not to mention whenever it us over 85 I would never bring my dog as it is far too hot in back. No ac just swamp coolers from what I wad told by back staff. Still with covers it's way too hot when it's above 90

This place groomed my dog so good and I'm so impressed. There were a couple of glitches getting my Fanny in for grooming but the owner made me a solid, kept her word and the groomer topped it off with I think, Fanny's best groom EVER! Thanks NW Pet Resort! You guys proved to be top notch!

Best place for all your fur buddies needs and a great place to drop them off if you need to go anywhere but can't bring them with. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. There groomers are the best for a fur buddy spa day freshen up.

We started bringing our dog Yukon after his companion passed away. Yukon became sad and not himself for weeks. A coworker referred us to Northwest Pet Redort and oh my gosh it is the best thing we have ever done for our dog. Yukon is a completely different dog and gets so excited when he knows he's going. All we have to do is ask him if he wants to go to school. Thank you, Scott and Ashley for creating such an amazing place for doggies to go play. We truly appreciate you and thank you for your support and donation towards Safe Harbors Human Trafficking here in North Idaho!!

Unfortunately I can not recommend Northwest Pet Resort and don't plan on using them in the future. I was visiting my dad in CDA and needed a place to board my 1 yr old corgi and chose here based on the reviews. The drop off was very smooth and the facilities did smell a bit like dog urine but that's to be expected. The staff were friendly and kind. The day before I came to pick her up I got a call that my pup had some runny stools and and upset stomach. They asked if I wanted to add some kind of gut soothing product to her food I said yes and they obliged. I appreciated the call but the problem came when I arrive to pick her up. It took a while for them to bring her out and when they did she was wet. The handler told me she had some stool on her back fur and he cleaned her up. She has long fur so I wasn't that shocked or anything. Then in the car I noticed she still had stool all over her backside AND several pieces of dried stool in her back fur. I was on my way to Portland but had to stop at a gas station to pick up some baby wipes to try and clean her off the best I could. I had to cut one of the matted pieces of feces off of her. I know things happen and happen last minute as someone is coming to pick up their dog, that I can forgive. What really bothered me was the dried poop all over her backside. We won't be returning. Two stars because the staff were friendly and I appreciated their update when they called me. However I just can't overlook the dried poop allover my baby girl.

I was hesitant to take my 6 month old puppy to doggie daycare because, she is my little baby. With a long work day, I had too. I filled the vaccinations paperwork at 9:00pm thinking I would have to wait 2-3 days to get approved. But no! The next morning I was confirmed I could drop her off! It was relief how fast they got her in. During the day I was worrying about her, so I text via Facebook how she was doing, within ten minutes someone gave me a long detailed message explaining how much fun she is having and who she is playing with. It was very appreciated knowing my dog was having fun. When I picked her up she seemed happy and didn't want to leave. My only complaint is I wish I could get pictures or videos of my dog playing lol. Otherwise, great place and affordable.

I can't say enough good things about the grooming experience for my Mister Winston! We had been taking him to Petco since he joined our family 4 years ago. He had been seeing the same groomer up until a year ago. Petco couldn't keep a groomer for more than a few weeks to keep up with his grooming schedule. I've taken him to a couple other places and they just didn't get him cleaned up enough. The gentleman that groomed him at Northwest Pet Resort did an amazing job. Winston looks so handsome!

And so ends 9 years of love and friendship and 8.5 of those years were shared with NW Pet resort. We have taken our Casey here since she was 6 months old and have been a very frequent fixture for the entire time. They have loved her like their own and even now as we deal with her cancer and end of life, the staff even continue to check on us while we comfort her at home. We could not have asked for a better environment or caregivers for our furry family member. This place and these people are amazing! To all the staff, thank you for the 8.5 years of amazing and loving care you have shown me and our family. As a business owner who understands the value of great customer service in this day and age, I give them the highest recommendation. Scott and Ashley are amazing and work tirelessly to provide your pets with a safe and loving environment that allows your pets to thrive.

Never did I expect to find a daycare/boarding facility that cares as much about our dog as we do. You can also purchase high quality pet supplies with them and support many local companies while doing so. If you need grooming, they can help with that too! Truly a one stop shop. It’s exceptionally clean and they genuinely love our boy! He’s always excited to go play with his friends at daycare and we’re always excited to see the staff which have become like family to us. Our dog has stayed as long as 10 days before and they even sent us pictures of him while we were gone to ease our worries. NWPR also makes sure to group dogs by temperament/size/activity level which makes them stand out compared to other facilities. The owners Ashley and Scott have put so much thought and hard work into this facility and are always taking steps to ensure all dogs get the best level of care possible. They are also very active in the community and have done things such as feed/board law enforcement dogs at no cost. This is the best and only place we trust to take care of our pets since they are treated like family.

My doggie Barkley absolutely loves coming here during the day while I’m at work. He gets so excited before we even pull up to the doors. He has a great time and I can tell he has had fun by how content and tired he is by the time we get home. The staff is also very friendly. 😊 …

We were so very pleased to find Jere who took great care of our two fur-boys while we went out of state for a family wedding. The boys were well taken care of as we had her come in 3x a day. She spends quality time with them, feeds and potties them, and even kept our potted plants alive. Highly recommend Jere as she's very detailed, and professional in her care.

great place to bring your pets and great prices

Kelly at WAGS CDA is wonderful! She takes my dog for mid day adventures while I am at work and he has a fantastic time! She always checks in and sends the cutest pictures.

Kelly and her crew at Wags are always our go-to for our dog sitting needs! They are reliable, responsible, and we always know our dogs are going to be loved on the whole time we are gone. They keep our dogs in their regular routine, follow my detailed instructions, and regularly send pictures. Our 3 dogs have done well with all of the pet sitters from Wags!

Wags CDA has put our minds at ease while we are away from home. Kelly and her incredible team watched our beloved Mo cat on three separate occasions, and each time we came home to a happy cat and a tidy house. We received regular photo updates showcasing playful cuddles and enthusiastic feather toy chases. It was clear Mo was getting plenty of love and attention. Beyond the essential care, they went the extra mile. They followed Mo's specific kidney supplement schedule, cleaned the litter box’s meticulously, and even watered our house plants. These thoughtful touches were greatly appreciated and solidified our trust in their pet-caring abilities. If you're seeking a compassionate, responsible, and cat-loving sitter, then I highly recommend Wags CDA!

Cannot share enough positive comments about Wags and Kelly and her team. Ok …so I will just give a few! Our fur baby comes first and Wags reflects that in how they provide all the loves and care for her. They ask questions about her and her routine. They are always on time, send daily pictures and we come home to a house that looks the way we left it and sometimes better! The best part though is when we return, we can just tell that our girl is always happy and loved on. We have had Kelly come to our winter home because of a circumstance beyond our control and it was so nice for us to have the piece of mind that she was in great care! If I could give 10 stars I would!

Wags to the rescue!!! We LOVE our Wags Gals! it feels so good to know that our pups are getting loved on when we are away on vacation or super busy with work. Each and every person we’ve worked with is AMAZING and we will be using our Wags Fam for years to come! 10/10 recommend!

My experience with Kelly and WAGS was that they were a lifesaver for us! My daughter had the opportunity to go on a 30 day road trip and I was moving at the same time so there was no one to watch her 2 high maintenance cats! In stepped Kelly to the rescue! She was absolutely wonderful, she even sent us pictures of the cats while she was with them! I would HIGHLY recommend WAGS for any pet related needs.....you will be thrilled with the service!

Wags Cda has the most caring staff. I know that all the pets are well loved and taken care of while the owners are gone.

I’ve searched for a pet sitter that would treat our dog as we do. That means, stay in our home, spend the night, lots of snuggles, walks and regular feeding times. Wags has done all of the above with a very professional business model. I have complete trust that our home and dog will be taken care of.

Found amazing reviews online and set up a meet and greet for our Beasty boy. Everything was so calm and organized when we walked in which blew my mind! My boy was nervous as to be expected but never seemed upset or tense. We than did a two night three day stay. Our last boarding experience had kept us from going anywhere we couldn’t bring him along. Jessica completely eased our minds about the whole process, was extremely thorough covering all the bases for needs and care. After drop off I was nervous but we got daily updates with pictures and stories and honestly my heart felt put at ease. When we picked him up he was calm!!! Previously he would be sick,shaking, just overall sick from the stress NOT THIS TIME!! He was happy to see us but he was calm and happy. I had to hug her!!! Now and forever our boys vacation spot!! I wish I could give more stars!!!

I dreaded leaving Murphy, my 11-month-old pup, for boarding while I went on a family trip. After researching, we found Jessica and I’m so pleased we did. Murphy was there for 8 days and came home healthy and exhausted from playing with all his new friends. Jessica sent me pictures and updates. She’s very in tune with each of the animals in her care. Her home and yard are clean, but still very pet friendly. Jessica is efficient and thorough with her business and necessary paperwork but loving and attentive toward the pets in her charge.

My young dog has separation anxiety. Jessie has provided daycare and boarding for her. Jessie is patient, welcoming, attentive and willing to share her advice. She has great control over all of the dogs and they respect her and her house. It is a clean, calm, and inviting place for people and dogs alike. I do not have to worry about my dog being anxious in her care, which is great peace of mind. Thanks so much!

Jessica's home was a great boarding destination for my dog! She was extremely responsive with any questions I posed and gave daily updates. It was an engaging environment for my dog, Barley, and Barley seems to have enjoyed her time (though I'm not a dog psychic).

Jess is amazing with my dogs. She is very personable and professional. I love her home atmosphere and how much love and attention she gives her clients( two legged and four).
