Pet Sitting Crystal Bay

“Tracy’s rates are extremely competitive for the area. She’s consistent showing up when she says she will and reliable in her communication. My kitties had great care.”

Casey R.

“Mae was great! All 3 of my boys (a dog and 2 cats) liked her immediately, and she went above and beyond in taking care of them while I was out of town. She communicated with me every day, and let me know how they were doing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

About: I’m no stranger to the zoo! We had every animal growing up: chickens, turtles, hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, birds, guinnea pigs, snake. Love them all! I work part time & also a student part time which is done from home, so I have a very flexible schedule & lots of availability! Currently I don’t have my cat with me, so I have all the time in the world to hang out with your fur baby & give them all the love!

About: I have spent my whole life living with and caring for animals of all kinds, ranging from self sufficient cats who sleep all day, to high energy dogs who require multi-mile walks and constant engagement. I can comfortably administer medications and assist pets with special needs. I will follow their routine closely, and if I'm staying in your home I can assure you it will be treated mindfully. Growing up I frequently watched my neighbor's pets and built great relationships with each animal. I got to know so many personality types and adapted to their lifestyles. I don't have any pets currently, and would love the opportunity to spend time with ones who need care. My ultimate goal is to make them feel like their family never left. I will be working part time this fall and am currently volunteering at the Humane Society of Tahoe-Truckee, so I will have lots of time to keep your furry friends company. Depending on your pets energy we can keep active or spend the day cuddling on the couch. No matter, their days will be filled with love and enrichment. I just ask that you provide each pets vet information and emergency contacts. I have a pet-specific checklist we will go over, ie diet, behavior, daily routine, etc. to ensure they will have a fun yet safe and clean environment while you're away. Dogs will stay on leash when out of the house (unless we go for a swim!). I can check in as frequently as you prefer and can confirm many photos will be taken.

About: I have years of experience dog, cat, and house sitting, and especially love working with dogs. Have personal experience owning rescue pets and participated in dog behavior training. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, so I am happy and willing to work with you and your pets’ specific needs and schedule! I provide outdoor walks, check ins, and caring for your pets in your home. I always ensure your pets’ safety by securing them before exiting the car for walks, making sure they are leashed, checking shade/temperature of the park or trail we may be using, and ensuring all unsafe foods/objects are out of the dog or cats reach when in the home. I also have a large vehicle with room for dogs and crates of all sizes.

About: What sets me apart is the attentiveness, patience, and reliability I bring to pet care. Through years of working with kids in outdoor education and ski instruction, I’ve developed strong awareness, calm communication, and the ability to adapt to individual needs — qualities that translate naturally into caring for animals. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who benefit from consistency to senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. Living an active lifestyle in Truckee allows me to offer engaging walks and hikes when appropriate, while always respecting your dog’s comfort level. I also prioritize communication and provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine and active lifestyle. I work full days at Alpine Meadows Ski Resort on Mondays and Tuesdays, and occasionally Thursdays and Fridays, so I plan pet care around those commitments to ensure every dog receives consistent, unrushed attention. On my available days and mornings/evenings, I prioritize walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship. Living in the Truckee area also allows me to offer engaging outdoor time when appropriate, while always respecting each dog’s energy level and needs. I value reliability and communication, so owners can expect dependable scheduling and regular updates. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions closely while providing attentive interaction through walks, playtime, and companionship based on each pet’s needs. I also treat your home with respect by keeping things clean and secure, and I provide regular photo updates and communication so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’m 44 years old and originally from France, and I’d love to be your pet’s new favorite sitter 🐾 I have many years of experience caring for animals, especially dogs. My own dog lived to almost 17 years old, so I’m very familiar with everything from playful pups to senior care, including medications, special diets, and extra patience when needed. I genuinely love being outdoors and going on walks, and I always make sure each pet gets the exercise, attention, and routine they’re used to—whether that’s regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, or just lots of cuddles and companionship. I live right by the national forest, which is perfect for safe, enriching walks in nature. In addition to dogs, I also have experience with cats, fish, and pet rats, so I’m happy to care for a variety of pets. Since I work mostly from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day—your pet will never feel alone. I also offer in-home visits, where I can care for your pets in their own environment and help with small tasks like watering plants and keeping things in order while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel relaxed and loved while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work mostly from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around the pets in my care, making sure they get regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy starting and ending my day with walks, especially since I live right by the national forest, so it’s easy to give dogs fresh air and exercise in a calm, natural environment. I’m also home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. For in-home visits, I’m able to adjust my schedule to match each pet’s routine and needs, whether that’s morning, midday, or evening visits. I always aim to keep pets on their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I always care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are in my home or their own. In my home, pets get a calm, relaxed environment with lots of attention throughout the day since I work mostly from home. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions. Living near the national forest also allows me to provide peaceful, enriching walks in nature for dogs who enjoy being outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. I stick closely to your instructions so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I’m attentive to details like meals, medications, exercise, and companionship, and I also make sure your home is kept tidy. I’m happy to help with small additional tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping things in order while you’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and cared for, and to give owners peace of mind knowing everything is in good hands.

“Thank you for looking after Lily, fantastic job, would recommend to friends and family!”

I work from home, so I have ample time to spend with your pup, and have two dogs of my own, that love other dogs. I live with my partner, so one of us is always home and present with the pups. I have many years of experience working with dogs, which includes: owning dogs, volunteering at Animal Shelters and working at Animal Hospitals. I have worked at three Animal Hospitals as a Technician, which has provided me with the necessary skills to understand dogs needs - especially when it comes to medical situations. Also, I am very caring, loving, responsible, dependable and trustworthy. Ultimately, the reason I have signed up to be a dog walker as well as a sitter, is simply because I love being around dogs.

I am extremely active so love being active with pups. I will give your dog so much love! I work from home, so I am always by my pups side. I will treat your dog like my own!

“Mariah was so attentive and took extra care with my cat and bird. It was such a good experience to know that she was watching after them while I was away. I highly recommend her and will request her in the future. Thank you, Mariah!”

About: I grew up on a farm, gaining hands-on experience working with animals daily. I’ve helped train several farm dogs, cared for cats, and feel confident and comfortable working with animals of all kinds. Hey everyone! I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM at the Ritz-Carlton, but I’m still available for morning and evening care, as well as full house-sitting on weekends or whenever it fits your needs. I do also work as a server at Trokay from about 5-10 pm on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pup company, I’ll make sure they’re well looked after. Feel free to reach out if you’re looking for a dependable house sitter! I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own home, where I can provide them with the attention and care they need. I have experience working with all kinds of animals and can ensure a safe, comfortable environment while you’re away. I’m happy to follow specific care instructions to keep your pet feeling at ease.

About: I grew up caring for household pets & greatly enjoyed it. I am a dedicated animal lover, with years of experience in dog walking, playing, and general loving care for friends and family’s pets. I feel strongly that animals need to get sufficient play time in order to feel properly nourished in their lives. I also have experience with senior dogs, dogs with muzzles & dogs with special needs. I have been house and pet sitting across the country on & off for the last 5 years. I am an entrepreneur & work from home. My schedule is flexible & I can almost always adapt to your scheduling needs. I am currently in between vehicles and relying primarily on public transportation & the local shuttle system at this time. Many of my repeat clients offer me a vehicle or bike to use during my time caring for their pets if it is necessary for the duties I’ll be performing. I have been on Trusted Housesitters for over 4 years with excellent reviews and experiences. I have also house and pet sit for many friends and family. Given my large resume of experience, I decided to start on Rover to get paid for the excellent care that I offer. While staying in your home, I will treat your home like my own. Keeping all spaces clean and tidy for you to come back to. If you have any boundaries in your home please let me know, so I can be sure to respect all house rules. I am comfortable sleeping with animals on the beds or off, depending, of course, on how large the bed is if it’s an overnight sit. I will enjoy exploring your area and take any pups who need exercise on some beautiful hikes and adventures!

“Malea was literally the best! From her communication- punctual arrival - and extra love for our new puppy. So many wonderful pictures and I absolutely trust her to come take care of our girl anytime. We got so lucky having Malea and will def use her again! She's the best!”

About: Hello, my name is Zac. I am an avid animal lover who enjoys looking after and taking care of animals. I have worked as an Assistant Manager attendant at Dr Daves Doggie day care, and a Veterinary Technician for the past 11 years; more recently working at Sierra Pet Clinic for 6yrs. I would like to offer my sitting and walking services to anyone who needs them. Play time and walks are always a must! Being with animals is a passion of mine, and if you would like someone who loves animals, will treat your furry family member as one of their own - I’m your guy. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, I m excited to work with you & your furry friend! I am in the midst of a career change from clinic work to field work in ecology, supporting fish hatcheries. Thus my schedule is fairly flexible and I am able to accommodate more clientele at this time. I offer in-house sits at your home, and ensure meet-and-greets are scheduled first to ensure both you and your animal feel comfortable and safe with my care.

“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…”

“Thank you Tessa. You did a great job walking Luna 4 times yesterday. I love that you text me and sent pics every time. I was so impressed and confident with your professionalism and we look forward to our next booking with you. Very Highly Recommended.”

About: I am 25. Raised and crate trained my own dog. & I have cats! I am a babysitter, soccer coach, and currently in EMT school. I am responsible & clean for house sits. I am very active for your dog walking needs!!! I am currently working seasonally until Oct. 1st. For the remainder of September- I have availability for morning and evening walks and house sits! Once October hits I am doing online school and have FULL availability for your pets needs!!! For walks- I’ll adapt to any dogs walking preference! Energetic mountain dogs? I’ll take them on 5 mile hikes. Older pups that need 30 min of slow strolls? I got you. As for house sits- I am respectful, very very clean, and will take amazing care of your precious pets AND your personal environment.

About: With over 7 years of professional sitter experience, I’m the person you call when you have a very specific way that you like things done, and would really like to leave town without worrying about any of it😆 I genuinely love getting to know animals. I actually want the detailed instructions. My background is in private home management and personal concierge work, so looking after the house comes naturally to me too. If I’m staying in your home, I’m paying attention for mail and packages that may come in. Pet areas kept clean. Plants don't mysteriously die. Trash doesn't pile up. If something looks wrong, I notice it. I've cared for multiple-pet households, senior dogs, pets with special needs and homes during multi-month stays. I'm CPR/First Aid certified for cats and dogs, comfortable following medication routines, including oral and injected medications. I work remotely, which gives me an abundance of flexibility and means I actually do spend time with the animals I'm caring for😉 I work remotely, so I organize my schedule around the animals I'm caring for rather than trying to squeeze them into my day. Morning walk at 6:30? Fine. Medication with dinner? Can do. Your dog insists on conducting a complete neighborhood security inspection before bed? Why not? Because, apparently that's what we're doing! 🤷🏾‍♀️😆 I enjoy it and try to make it fun for your pet. I care for pets in their own home whenever possible and I follow your routines for meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime rituals, and all the little quirks that make your pet your pet. I’m also looking after the household while I’m there too. I keep things tidy, bring in packages, monitor the home, and make sure you return to happy pets and a cared-for space. I’m warm with animals and extremely self-sufficient. I'm also a good communicator. You're going to hear from me. You'll get photos, updates and anything important that comes up while you're away And if your dog happens to look suspiciously happy without you, I will gladly provide photo evidence. 😁

About: Hi, I’m Aly. I am a Reno local and graduated with a degree in Wildlife Ecology from UNR in 2020, so my passion is animals. I have been pet sitting on the side for about 5 years and have experience with small dogs, big dogs, bunnies, fish, and horses. I am able to provide any oral medication needed, feeding, walks, playtime, and whatever else your pet requires to be comfortable. No job is too big or too small! This is my full time/year-round job and my hope is that I can help people live the flexible lives they want/need with the comfort of knowing their home and pets are safe and being taken care of. Pet care is my full-time and year-round job. I am available 7 days a week and also on holidays. I accept same day bookings because I know life happens and I understand the additional stress of finding pet care last-minute. My hope is to alleviate that stress and provide reliable care for your pet. When caring for your pet in your home, I try to keep the pets schedule consistent with their normal routine. That includes feedings, medication, bathroom breaks, and sleep schedules. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new, so you can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos of your pet while you’re away.
