Pets in a microbakery kitchen in Bonneville County?

Idaho cottage food does not write a pet-room rule. Seven public-health districts administer food safety.

What the rule actually means

Cottage path first — then any inspected path

Cottage / exemption path

IDAPA 16.02.19 cottage-food provisions do not require pets out of the dwelling. Exclude pets from the kitchen while you bake as ordinary sanitation.

Inspected or home-bakery path

A health district can apply Food Code animal rules if the operation is treated as a food establishment rather than cottage food.

County file restates the state baseline

No specific state or county restrictions beyond standard food safety sanitation practices.

District practice varies. Do not invent a district pet ban without a published packet.
