“Gina was great with Frankie! I loved the pictures that she posted, and I could see how Frankie was doing. It was so nice to not have to worry about her. We would definitely ask Gina to take care of her again.”

“Rizzo and I are repeat customers of Zara’s. My most recent booking was for a two week daily visit schedule while I was traveling. Zara is always on time, communicated clearly and quickly if there were any questions or issues. She always does the best photo shoots during her visits with Rizzo, that it’s the highlight of my day viewing her report card. I’ll be booking again!”

About: I’ve been a devoted dog lover for over 17 years, caring not only for my own beloved dog—who lived a long, happy life to age 17—but also for the dogs of friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve had hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities, including Labradors, Retrievers, a Lab/Pug mix, Border Collies, Huskies, and Corgis. This has taught me how to tune into each dog’s unique needs, energy level, and temperament. What truly sets me apart is the way I care. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means active play, a calm check-in, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person entering your home and caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Your dog won’t just be “checked on”—they’ll be cared for with kindness, respect, and real affection. How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I especially enjoy morning visits. I’m an early riser, so I’m reliable and available for those important first check-ins of the day—feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and a calm, positive start for your dog. I plan my schedule around my visits to make sure each pet gets my full attention without feeling rushed. Mornings are a priority for me, but I also have flexibility to accommodate other times when needed. I truly enjoy these visits—they’re something I look forward to. Your dog will be greeted with kindness, patience, and genuine care every time I arrive. How I Care for Pets in Your Home I stop by and check in on your dog while you’re away for the day or weekend, so they can stay comfortable in their own home. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh water, are fed as you prefer, and get a potty break, attention, and some companionship. I like to take a little extra time with each dog—whether that’s a bit of play, a short walk, or just sitting with them so they feel relaxed and not alone. I keep my service area within about a 10-minute drive so I can be dependable and on time for every visit. As I get more established, I may also offer overnight stays for small dogs down the road. I treat every dog like they’re my own, because I know how much they mean to you.

I am very active and walk frequently. I am an early morning riser and monitor how often dogs need a walk or outside break. Pets are a part of my daily routine. My home: I have beds set up and recognize different doggy routines, ie need to go on the porch for sun, or need to go out for a break and walk. I have a section on my porch and in the laundry area for their food and water and a special area where I organize all the food, medication, leaches, doggy bags. I have a place by my couches with a large basket with balls, toys and stuffed doggy animals.

“Mariam is so loving with my dog and he is so happy when she comes to visit. I can see him on the ring camera when they leave for a walk or while she’s patting him. I couldn’t be more pleased that my pup is loved while I can’t be with him due to work or travel. Highly recommended.”

About: Hey there! My name is Eva and I have a passion for dogs. Ever since I can remembers, I had many furry friend family members. I grew up taking care of them since I was 10 years old. I love being the person to give dogs their well-deserved walk or run and dose of fresh air. I am very versatile and if your furry friend (s) loves getting exercise, I will take them on energizing walks. Or, if your dog prefers a more low-key walk, I will match their pace. Your dogs safety and happiness are my main concerns while I am caring for them. I also offer overnight care. I look forward to spending quality time with your dog (s) while you take care of your business!

I will treat your pet as family. I am willing to fit your pet care in to my daily routine. Some times I have trouble waking up in the morning but I am motivated to make money right now.

I will treat your pet like it is my family. Thank you for your interest and consideration.
About: Although I don’t have pets of my own, over the past several years I’ve had the chance to care for a wide variety of dogs of all ages and sizes. I live down the street from some dog friendly hiking trails and my backyard is quite large so the energetic pups are always happy. I am accommodating and love the experiences I have meeting each new pet. A highlight was fostering and finding homes for 5 kittens in 2022! I have a relatively flexible schedule and am willing to travel a reasonable distance, message me for further schedule details- most frequently available on weekends I have a keen attention to detail that can keep too curious pups out of trouble. I love to hear special instructions from the owner about what their pets like!
About: Before requesting to book anything with me, please be aware that I’m a stay at home mom, so my son does accompany me on walks and is present in my home for boarding. Because of this, pets in my care do need to be comfortable around young children. Your pet’s safety and comfort is very important to me and I want to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone involved. I will never force an interaction between your pet and my child, and I carefully manage their environment to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable during visits. I have over a decade of hands on animal care experience, including working in veterinary hospitals, an emergency animal hospital, animal shelters, and even a wildlife sanctuary specializing in wolves and other wild canines. I’m extremely comfortable handling dogs and cats of all personalities. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, or simply needs some extra patience and attention, I bring professional animal experience and a genuine love for what I do. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I am a stay at home mom and other than some other gigs and taking care of my rambunctious 10 month old son, I am fairly free! I have 2 cats at home and they have the most spoiled lives ever!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carson City
Ally did a great job with our 2 kitties; especially with our elderly cat who needed twice a day meds. She communicated with us every day, including great pictures. She had to problem solve our often tempermental kitty litter contraption and even noticed we had wet towels in the washing machine- drying AND folding them! She was excellent. Very sweet personality—very much recommend…

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Carson City is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,211 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Carson City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
