House Sitting in Floriston

“Aaron is wonderful! He is very sweet and caring to our 14 year old lab, and took our rambunctious young boxer on long hikes. He kept us updated throughout the 'tour of duty' and left the house absolutely spotless. We would definitely ask him to care for our boys again.”

About: I have always had animals. Old & young, I love them. I love going for walks and enjoy the company of dogs! I’m very reliable & I love to cuddle 🥰. I do my best to love on your fur baby while you’re gone. I have a lot of flexibility. I enjoy the company and walk daily. i work at home so that can be helpful. I treat you pet like family & I generally enjoy keeping in touch with pictures to the families ❤️ I make sure my home is clean and safe, also within a fenced yard, and on a leash when out. Being mindful of where abouts at all times.

“Averyl was great! she saved the day. we needed someone to watch odin for a few days before our already booked rover sitter. she was amazing, did a meet and greet, was communicative, and even washed the sheets and made the guest room back up for the next sitter! I’d definitely use Averyl again!”

“We couldn't be happier with our first experience using Randy as our pet sitter. We arranged a meet and greet before our trip — and our two Boxers (who have no shortage of energy) took to him immediately. He was at ease with them which gave us confidence that he wouldn't have any issues. Randy stayed at our home for 6 days and kept us in the loop with frequent updates throughout. Knowing our pups were in good hands made it much easier to enjoy our trip. When we came home, the house was exactly as we left it and doggies were happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. If you have high-energy dogs and need someone who can keep up, Randy can do it. We've already scheduled another stay for our next vacation.”

“We were so lucky to book Tenaya to watch our little guy. She took great care of our puppy, asked thoughtful questions, and provided excellent updates during her stay. Our home was spotless when we returned and we really appreciated the attention to detail.”

“Windsor took really good care of our dog - he's dealing with a stomach bug we thought was over, but unexpectedly came back and she handled the whole situation really well. She cleaned up for us and made sure our pup was comfortable until we could get home. I'd definitely recommend her!”

Sarah E.

“Ashley look such good care of our dog and cat! My dog has a lot of energy and is usually a little anxious. When my partner and I came back, he was calm and happy and made coming home feel that much better! She was also very patient with us since our booking was last minute. So grateful for her!”

About: Hi, I’m Monica, a Truckee local, animal lover, and pet owner with two cats and a dog of my own. A huge reason why I was interested in doing this is because I know firsthand how hard it can be to find a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter in Tahoe. Leaving your animals with someone else can be stressful, and I want people to feel confident that their pets are genuinely cared for while they’re away. I live an active mountain lifestyle and am great with dogs that love getting outside, but equally happy caring for shy cats, senior pets, or animals that just need calm companionship and consistency. I’ve also spent time involved in ski patrol and search and rescue environments, which I think speaks to the kind of person I am, responsible, calm under pressure, attentive, and safety-oriented. I’m currently building my Rover profile and offering introductory pricing while I establish reviews and relationships with local clients. I promise to care for your animals the same way I’d want someone caring for mine ❤️ I work remotely running my own accounting business, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be very present and attentive with the animals I care for. I’m detail-oriented, communicative, and reliable, and I’ll always treat your pets and home with respect. I prioritize your pet's well being, adhering to routines and ensuring a clean environment. Trust is so important; I maintain your pet's space meticulously, respecting privacy, and providing attentive, reliable care.

“Scott was great with our new 14 week old puppy. Our puppy was pumped to see him each day and that is probably the best endorsement. Scott was consistently on time (even early!) and made it easy.”

“Kinan was a perfect house guest and pup sitter. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. We can’t say enough good things about him. If you are in need of someone, he is a great choice. We will be using him when we need a pup sitter again.”

Rachel Y.

“Malea was absolutely amazing! She sent us tons of pictures, frequent updates and went out of her way to give our dog a mini vacation while we were gone. We couldn’t be happier!”

Collin M.

“Jill was great. Could be a full time puppy photographer, Saira loved her, and she did a great job with the cats too. 5 stars.”

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.

“Antoinette is responsible, attentive, and friendly! For my first booking with her, she watched my cat for five nights. She set up an in-person meeting beforehand and paid careful attention to his food and play preferences. She also sent photos updates with each meal, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even brought in a package for me without having to ask. I’d happily book her again!”

Alexis T.

“Cat M. did an excellent job with my dog, Maggie. Cat walked Maggie twice a day and she even bathed her after Maggie had rolled in the dirt. My house was in the same condition as when I left it, which was greatly appreciated. Cat even spent her own time with me after I returned to teach me some tricks to use when taking Maggie for a walk, as Maggie is a puller and she is reactive to other dogs. Cat has been the best pet sitter through Rover that I’ve had in the past and I will definitely book with her again.”

Dianne W.

“Emidio was amazing!!! Very communicative and timely!! I could tell that myla and oso got all the love they needed. Was like we never even left for the weekend! Will definitely have Emidio back :)”

Erika R.

“Lidia did an amazing job house sitting and caring for my 7 month old kitten while I was away. She was communicative throughout the stay, providing regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. She was also flexible, respectful of my home, and clearly attentive to my kitten’s needs. I would absolutely hire Lidia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. She was a pleasure to work with!”

Shannon K.

“Gissell was very loving and obviously quite experienced. She bonded with my dog instantly. During her stay she also took him out for nice hikes and meeting new doggie friends. She is good with communication and sent pictures and clips of their hikes and beach visits. My dog likes her so much that the night after our return, he even went to the guest bedroom to look for her.”

M W.

“Stacy was super friendly and great to work with! I felt very at ease having her take care of my little guy and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: My family and I have owned pets since I can remember. I am currently 33 with 3 pets of my own, but have grown up with pets in the home my whole childhood. My family always had dogs and cats in our home, and additionally I owned a bearded dragon, fish, and a tortoise that I helped care for daily. Once I moved to college in 2014, I got my first pet of my own. Her name is Stella and she has been with me for the last 12 years. She has lived with me in Oregon, Texas, and now Reno. Additionally, my wife and I have a silly orange cat named Nemo, and a fun/energetic Frenchie named Comet. While living in Texas we adopted another cat with FeLV who also developed diabetes. I have experience giving insulin injections and taking blood glucose readings. I have met and cared for many of my friend’s pets of all ages and sizes and can responsibly provide all daily care for your furry babies as needed. This includes but is not limited to feeding, walking, playing, transporting, giving oral meds, and subcutaneous injections. I currently work as a teacher and have extended breaks during the fall, winter, and summer. During the school year I will have availability during afternoons and evenings for some care activities, and weekends for more. During breaks, if not traveling, and I will have a lot more flexibility daily. Update 06/08: I am currently on summer break from teaching. My weekday availability has been updated with more available times/ services. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my 2 dogs and an indoor cat. The pets have access to the entire unit including furniture during the day and when sleeping. Our spare bedroom can be used for your pet if they are more anxious and want separation from the other animals. My dogs are crated when no one is home to supervise, and the cat has full access to the unit at all times. My pets are all friendly towards other dogs and cats. In the past when sitting for animals, I have them fall into the same routines as my animals for walking, feeding, pottying, and crating, unless specified different by the owner. When doing drop ins and house sitting, I follow all instructions left by the owner.
