Testimonials
Sparkling Modern Home; Great Companion
We are experienced house sitters and have dealt with many types of owners/pets; Gary, Jackie and pet, Jasper, are one of the best. We thoroughly enjoyed their beautiful home located in the foothills above Boise during our one month sitting agreement. It is easy to become enamored with “The City of Trees”, there’s so much to do including great hiking right from the house. The Roeders’ past professional lives were reflected with their detailed written instructions and communication throughout the stay. Aussiedoodle, Jasper, is well trained, intelligent, and quickly became “our best friend.” He is quite a guy on the trail, in the backyard or just sleeping on the couch. We would return to Boise in a flash if invited back…. It was that good of a house sit.
