Future nurse, forever dog lover

Hi, I am currently a nursing student at UNR! I have had dogs my whole life so I understand the commitment and responsibility it takes to have a dog. I have a small dog currently who I rescued about 5 years ago. She was abandoned at a dog boarding place :,(. I will respect any training regimens you have in place! I love dogs and understand them so dogsitting is truly enjoyable for me. I can provide recommendations as needed! I understand it can be hard to trust people with your precious pets so let me know if there’s anything I can do to ease your mind!

House Sitting • jul. 28, 2025

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.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with lots of squirrels to chase and pet safe plants! I have a little dog who is friendly but not always energetic. I’ve never had any issues with pet sitting other dogs with her but if they interact, I’d like for them to meet beforehand. At your home I will of course respect any rules you have for me or your dogs. My dog does not need to come with me. I have raised dogs and understand the importance to maintain training regimens so I can do that. However, it is not my place to enforce these if you have not asked, I will respect the way you raise your fur baby!

Pets

A typical day

This largely depends on the dog I am watching. Some dogs love hanging out in their home and going on walks around the neighborhood. Some love to play tug of war and fetch for hours. Some like to go to lakes and rivers to play. Depending on your pup and your preferences I can do any of these things and more! You know your pup the best so tell me what they like and need and I can accommodate!

I love big dogs because I was raised with them. My childhood dog was 110lbs so I am not afraid of the big, strong pups. Let me know if your pet needs medications or any special accommodations. I can handle most things so just ask!
