“Kinan goes above and beyond as both a sitter and dog walker. He takes exceptional care of my German Shepherd, Zara, and it’s clear how much he genuinely loves animals. As a house sitter, he’s the best I’ve ever had—he left my home spotless, was so respectful of our space, and spent so much quality time with my girl while I was away. I can’t recommend him enough—10/10!”

“Lilliana was 15 minutes early & was absolutely fabulous! ! Not only is she sweet & kind, she truly love animals & I had zero concerns while I was out!! Makes it very comforting to leave knowing our pups are being cared for & loved. So happy to have found her!!”

“Very happy repeat customer! Cleo did a great job of updating us and sending pictures and videos while we were gone. Came home to find both of our boys very happy and well loved.”
About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.

I love dogs and love to take care of them I work Monday -Thursday, I love to work out so it will be nice to go on long walks or have company while going on runs I will keep your dog company or keep him or her in their creat if needed!

About: I have had dogs most of my life. To be able to be of service and help others with their animals brings me joy. Whether it is to walk, play, feed or just hang out and love on them is wonderful! My hours are flexible and available daily. Depending on others schedule, I can make it work. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, whatever is best. Very reliable and will keep you posted on my visits. Safety and security is very important to me. I am diligent and respectful of my clients needs and take great care of the animals I visit.
“Rachel was amazing! She sent regular photo, video, and text updates while I was gone and kept my two dogs happy and well exercised. She was especially patient with one of my dogs who tends to be nervous in general but even more so when I’m away. My house was clean and tidy when I came home with everything as I had left it. I would recommend Rachel to anyone in need of a loving, respectful sitter for their fur babies!”

About: Hi! My name is Noah, I'm a Licensed Veterinary Technician working in the Gardnerville/Minden/Carson area. I have 10 years of experience in the veterinary field and am looking to provide some home care for some local animals if needed. I can do overnight visits, stop by to feed/walk animals, walk dogs in neighborhood or local trails/dog parks, give medications, change kitty litter, and more! Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns. Thanks! I work full-time 4 days per week, usually Sun-Weds but depending on where you are located I could stop by on my lunch break to tend to pets. Don't have much of a social life outside of work so on my days off I'm free all day! I don't typically have animals come to my home but as far as your home goes, when I first meet you and your pet I would take a look at the property and notify owner if I spot any concerning areas where pets could potentially escape, etc. For walks I would make sure collar/harness is properly fitted and pet cannot slip out and escape.

As a former realtor, I understand the importance of trust and responsibility, ensuring your home and keys are handled with the utmost care and professionalism.

My flexible schedule allows me to offer weekday and weekend availability, providing personalized care tailored to your pet’s routine. I bring enthusiasm to walks, playtime, and cuddles, creating joyful experiences for your furry or feathered friends.

With a passion for animals and a commitment to trust, I’m here to be your reliable choice for exceptional pet care.
“AWESOME! FANTASTIC! Wrigley has a new best friend! Angie was prefect in every way. You can tell she cares about the pets she watches and they love her. Came home to a different in a good way doggie and a home that was spotless! Can not thank Angie enough!”

About: I've taken care of various dog breeds such as Shitzu, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, Golden Retriever, Poodle, Labrador, Jack Russell, Beagle, etc. I have experience taking care of puppies to senior dogs and cats. My family loves pet and I've grown up with dogs in the house. I am a full-time stay at home mom. I also have a high energy puppy dog who loves to play to keep your dog a company. She’s very friendly and loves to socialize with other dogs. I have a concrete and big fenced pet-friendly yard. My husband and I are both pet lovers and we’re partners in taking care of them. We have a dog of our own named Chase. We always treat pets as part of our family. 🥰🏡🐶
About: I've had dogs (sometimes up to 9) for my entire life and believe I understand them and how they communicate. I've gotten into dog training and have been training my own pup ever since we got her (she is over 2 now). I believe in positive rewards and that pups are part of the family! I work full time and have most availability on the weekends. I can walk dogs before/after work with potty break in the middle day if weekdays are needed. Most weekends are completely open. Constant communication with dogs about their behavior and lots of positive reinforcement. I want dogs to understand what I want and need just as much as I believe I need to understand what they want and need.
About: My girlfriend Leah and I have had a dog in our life every year until now. Leah grew up with cats and her family dog named Murphy who she loved. We are passionate about walking pups. I feel every dog should get at least an hour of activity outside everyday. Also I am a strong person who is able to keep your animal safe from any dangerous situation that may be happening near by. With me you will know your pet is safe because I make the pets safety my highest priority. We are the best deal on the app because you get two people for the price of one You get two for one. I work remotely full time. This means I work 6am - 2:30pm Monday- Friday. But since I am fully remote if you were in need of a house sitter I would be able to take the dog out during working hours because my job is pretty laid back. The weekends I am 100% free. In addition to this I have my GF Leah, who is a full time student who is always available to help out. This is the first year of my life where I do not have a dog living with me. But when I did I would be checking on the dog all the time. Making sure they have water and I let them out to go to the bathroom or take them on short walks during the day. After work is when i will usually take my pet on an hour walk or go to a park or some where to play. In addition to me there is my girlfriend Leah who is a full time remote student right now. She is always available to help out and is super responsible and helpful.
“Super sweet, and took such wonderful care of my fur babies. She instantly felt like family, and took care of my babies like her own. I will DEFINITELY be using her again when I come to this area visiting family.”

“Tyler is a great sitter! I was fortunate that he was available on very short notice. He came to meet my 3 dogs and was up to the level of care I expected. He is very good with communicating and unafraid to ask questions. I believe he took great care of the dogs because they were fine when I came home and there wasn't anything unusual in their behavior.”
“Kelly was absolutely fantastic taking care of my pups over a weekend for me. She sent regular updates and I can see she truly cares about animals! She’ll be my first choice for future pet sitting needs!”

“Krystalyn was awesome! She did a great job of caring for our home and pups. She provided great updates and pics. Our dogs really loved her dog and got some extra playtime! Highly recommend! .”

“I’ve only had one experience with a local boarding facility, that was not a good experience. I was extremely nervous about leaving my baby (let’s be serious, they’re our children) with a stranger again. I chose Rover since house sitting was also an option, my thinking was it would be less traumatic for my dog being at home. Sophie came for a visit a week before my trip, she instantly put me at ease. 😊 My dog was sick the day before I left, we had a little vet visit and he was given some medication. Sophie had no problems with giving him his medication, giving me updates and sending me pictures throughout my trip. She is super sweet, took great care of my baby and my home. I would highly recommend Sophie to take care of your fur babies, and well as your home.”
