“Jessica is very caring and responsible with our pets. She left the house clean and the pets happy. She is a great communicator and we felt comfortable having her in our house with our pets. She even watered my plants while we were away. Would definitely book Rover with her again!”


“Jace continues to be the very best! The animals—cat and dogs—and the house are so well taken care of. We have a weeklong trip coming up, and we’re so at ease knowing Jace will be here ❤️”


“April was absolutely great! I received picture updates daily and she took care of my diabetic dog that receives insulin injections twice a day with no issues. Will definitely book again!”


About: From tiny chihuahuas to great pyrenees mixes, puppies to seniors, I’ve cared for dogs across all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Some need playtime and belly rubs, others need special diets or a gentle routine. I’ve worked with both healthy dogs and those with mild medical needs, and I always adapt to meet their individual pace and comfort. My experience with pets spans years through volunteering, helping friends and family, and raising my own sweet girl Opal, who has since passed. Since then, caring for other people’s pets (and fostering a few) has become a way to keep that love present in my life. I work a regular 8–5 job, but I’m available most weekends and can often make weekday visits work with a little notice. Whether your dog needs a walk, company, or a cozy overnight sitter, I’ll show up with kindness, patience, and care. Availability • Weekends: Fully available • Weekdays: 4am- 7am and 6pm-10pm If alternative hours are needed, please feel free to share and I will do my best to adjust! I create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention while maintaining a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, and exercise.

“You can tell taking care of animals is in Nelson’s blood. He came through for me and Nico on a last minute business trip and provided plenty of updates throughout the day. In addition to taking excellent care of Nico, Nelson also left the house even cleaner than I did when I left which is such a relief after coming home from a trip. Thanks again Nelson, Nico is already looking forward to hanging out with you next time!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by all kinds of animals throughout my entire life, and even raised my 3 current frenchies from birth! I learned a lot about the medical side of taking care of puppies & senior dogs, such as injecting / orally administering medications. Our family dog was a huge mastiff growing up, so any breed or size will not be an issue at all. Over the years I have provided petsitting to multiple family member and friends, always prioritizing the safety and comfort of all pets in my care. I am proud to have earned their trust and to consistently receive positive feedback. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your pet can always have my full attention. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, and I’m committed to providing reliable, 24/7 care. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a fully fenced, dog-safe backyard for supervised play time or relaxation. My three small French Bulldogs can be securely crated or separated to provide a calm environment if needed. I also live near two parks with trails that are perfect for energetic pups who love extra walks and outdoor time.

About: I’ve had a deep connection with animals for as long as I can remember. I currently share my space with my 3 companions, being my dog and two cats. Over the years, I’ve been entrusted by friends and family members alike to care for their beloved fur babies. My love for this work stems from my genuine affection for these animals, treating them with the same level of care and consideration as I would a person (perhaps even to an added degree). My current experience in pet care primarily consists of senior animals, each with unique health requirements. Though I’ve worked with many animals, I firmly believe that each pet has its own unique set of needs and distinct personality. I am committed to building a relationship with your pet so that I can learn who they are and what they love! I am currently available throughout all days of the week. Whenever your pets need someone to spend quality time with, I will more than happily be there to provide that for them. I am available 24/7 to your pets. I can adapt my routine to whatever their needs may be. Feel free to reach out at any time.

“Alexis was great! We had a last minute need to book a pet sitter and had some difficulty finding someone with all the dates open. We luckily found Alexis and she couldn’t have been more perfect. We did the meet and greet the day before leaving on our trip and knew immediately that we could count on her to be reliable compassionate with our dachshund. We could tell that he really liked her. She was very responsive in all communication and provided many great pics of our little guy while we were away. We will recommend her to our friends and make her our first choice for future bookings. Can’t say enough about her calm disposition and caring attitude. Thank-you, thank-you Alexis for being there when we needed you. Since we were away for a family death and funeral, knowing that we had someone as trustworthy as you to take care of our pet enabled us to focus on family and make the trip as best as it could.”


“Andrew was great! He was very flexible on timing and was able to come early when our schedule changed. He took great care of our pets and left our house spotless. Will book again!”


About: I have several years of experience dog-sitting in a variety of settings. I’ve helped run flyball shows, which gave me hands-on experience with high energy dogs in fast paced environments. I’ve also done long term overnight dogsitting for families who were out of town for multiple weeks, making sure their pets were safe, comfortable, and well cared for. In addition, I regularly do daily drop-ins for dogs in my neighborhood and for families I used to babysit for, building strong and trusted relationships with both pets and their owners. Right now, I’m working a full-time job Monday through Friday, so my availability is limited to weekends for drop-in visits (not overnight stays). Starting in early August, my schedule will open up, and I’ll be more flexible and available for a wider range of dog-sitting services. My dog-sitting style is all about making each dog feel like they’re with family. Whether it’s my own pets or dogs I’m caring for, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, playtime, and even their favorite spots to nap. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable by giving them plenty of attention, treats (if allowed), affection, and exercise. My goal is always to make them feel just as happy and cared for as they do when their family is home.

About: Hello, my name is Kimberly. I’ve been caring for pets for about 5+ years now, I’m experienced with small pets to large farm animals. I’m currently studying to become a vet technician in the future as my love for animals continues to grow and amaze me everyday. I love caring from silly puppies to sweet gentle seniors. I’m currently working full time as a vet technician, on my days off I enjoy spending the time with my animals or others as it’s something I’m very passionate about and it brings me so much joy! At the moment I don’t offer any care for pets in my own home. However when it comes to caring for your pet in your home, I promise to be respectful of your home. I love caring for pets in their own home as they aren’t as stressed since there in a familiar area, which is what I always try to achieve with my services.

“Nicole is the best! Very professional, personable, and attentive to our dog’s well being … as well as ours! Not only did she text us daily updates, but she sent the most adorable pics of our little buddy. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your four-legged friends.”


“Shawn took great care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats; especially my one dog who is reactive towards other dogs. He gave updates and pictures and made me feel better about leaving them with someone while I went home. He also was super helpful and flexible by being able to watch them an extra day when my flight had to be rebooked to the next day due to delays. If I didn’t travel for work (I’m only here for another 2 weeks) I would absolutely rebook with Shawn.”

About: I have been working with animals since the age of 10 where I volunteered at a family friend's dog daycare. I learned the basics of animal care there and went on to do great things in the field. I went on to do years of volunteer work as well as an internship at a Non-profit cat shelter and clinic. I worked for a few different dog day cares both here and in Reno where I spent a year. I have my own fur babies whom I love to pieces. I am Pet CPR and first aid certified. I also have grooming experience. I can cut nails, give baths, teeth brushing, and minimal hair trims. I also have knowledge in pet nutrition. Your pet will have a blast with me! I can guarantee dog park runs, getting to sleep in bed, and just an overall comfortable experience. Thanks for reading! Please note: My boyfriend will be accompanying me to any overnights. And if I am unavailable, he will take on clients as well. *Additional fees apply when outside of immediate location.* I work 4 days a week as a first responder and Brandon works 3 days as a first responder/teacher so someone is always home with pets and if we both have to leave, it won’t be for longer than an hour or 2. We have a fenced in yard, spare bedrooms, extra crates if needed, and always someone home with your pets! We always lock up food/meds to prevent any accidental ingestions.

I provide cozy bedding, toys, and a designated area for play and relaxation.

About: I have been surrounded by a pet-loving family all my life and family and friends always rely on me to care for our furry family. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, and fish! Pet care fits well in my weekly routine as I do a majority of my work from home! Which makes it very easy to be out and about more often than others with the typical job. If need be, I have all necessities for dogs in my personal home. My backyard is well secured, I own a crate, elevated dog bowls, and have my own pup for company. If that does not work, then I can easily go by your own home and hang out with your furry friend and make sure they get activity, food/water needed, and give them a potty break! I also ensure to leave your home just the way I found it or better!

“Laken is absolutely phenomenal with our animals. We have large dog, 2 cats, and a snake whom he is 100% comfortable with. My dog knows the sound of his truck and when he pulls up, she's so excited. We use Laken for many different things. He is excellent with baths and nail trims. And he is also very trustworthy to have watch your home. He was on rover a few years back and had a 5 star rating but he moved to Reno and deleted his account. I am glad he is back in town, already on the books for a bath next week. Wouldn't use anyone else for all our pet care needs!”
