“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”
“Faith made our fur baby’s stay so comfortable! Communication was great, and I got updates from her regularly. Upon pickup, our pup looked calm and happy, which was a great sign. Thank you so much again for your attentiveness, kindness, and flexibility!”
“So appreciative to Jade and Dain for the wonderful care they gave to our chihuahua mix, Georgie. Super kind and sent along a lot of text/photo updates. We knew Georgie was well taken care of.”
“Boarded my frenchie with Stephanie while staying in Tahoe, and loved the experience. She took great care of my pup, got her lots of playtime with others, and went for a few walks. Highly recommend!”
About: I have two 15lbs dogs of my own, and I understand small dogs sometimes prefer the company of other small dogs. I've taken care of my friends dogs many times over the years. I love dogs so much and welcome your small dogs to join our pack while you are away. I work 32 hours a week, and I am often working from home. One of my dogs prefers not to be left alone so I spend a lot of time with the dogs. When I do go to the office, the office is dog friendly so I have the option to bring dogs there with me. I have a fenced back yard and a chew-proofed, gated space for them inside if I have to step out. I also have different sized crates if you prefer your dog to be crated.
“Melissa took such great care of Kuma! I loved getting photos and updates, it made feel so secure that Kuma was receiving excellent care. Melissa is a true dog lover and it shines through.”
About: I have had pets my whole life and I have experience with difficult senior dogs as well as dogs that need medications or with special diets. I have the end off the week off to help you! I usually work Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays so I have the second half of the week to help. My yard is fenced, grassed, and my home is pet proofed! I have a large and small dog crate if needed also. I usually do free range unless a schedule is needed.
“Olivia had the best time on her sleep over! Gina was so flexible with pick up and drop off, and the whole process from booking to good bye went as easily as possible. A completely positive experience all the way around!”
“Anton was amazing. Not only did he take care of my free small for kids. I’m short notice but he kept me updated and let me know how sweet they all were. Even better when the fur kids got home they were so excited to be around him and definitely fell in love. There were a few little whimpers once they saw him leave. Anton is definitely a repeat sitter and has gained my trust very rapidly. Thank you very much for taking care of my little fur family members.”
About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I’m an active, outdoorsy person who loves spending time in nature, whether that’s going for walks, exploring trails, or simply enjoying some quality time with a furry companion. I’m responsible, attentive, and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets and home. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. As a private chef and real estate professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I love being outdoors, hiking, and enjoying everything Lake Tahoe has to offer, so having a furry companion along for the adventure is always a bonus! I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. With a background in private estate and property management, I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and treating someone’s home with the utmost respect. I take pride in providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s following specific feeding instructions, administering routine care, enjoying outdoor adventures, or simply providing cuddles and companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I also believe in keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax knowing their pets are in good hands.
About: I’d make an excellent dog sitter because I bring energy, attentiveness, and a genuine love for animals into everything I do. Even without formal experience, I’m highly responsible and quick to learn, which means I’ll carefully follow any instructions to keep each animal happy, healthy, and on their routine. I’m naturally patient and observant, so I can pick up on personality and needs with confidence! Whether that means playful energy, calm companionship, or extra care and reassurance. Most importantly, I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I would treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited while their owner is away! I am currently working part time and going to school part time. I am free most days and want to still remain productive in any way I can. I ensure cleanliness and safety when it comes to being in someone’s home. I love to clean and tidy up whenever I can! As an introvert, I love quietness so noise isn’t something I emit a bunch of.
“Melissa was wonderful. Very responsive with in minutes. We received daily updates and pictures. She even took the time to brush out our golden doodle! When we picked him up he was not stressed snd over exhausted like he is when we pick him up from a boarding place. We could tell he enjoyed his stay.”
About: I’ve spent most of my life around dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality, pace, and needs. I raised my own dog for nearly 18 years after rescuing him, and that experience taught me patience, consistency, and how to truly care for a dog through every stage of life. Beyond that, I’ve helped care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from walking large, high-energy huskies to spending extended time with senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive experience so your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: to treat your dog like they’re my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible and consistent schedule throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or check-ins, and I can easily adapt to your dog’s routine. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t experience long gaps without care or attention. I do step out occasionally for the gym or quick errands, but these are brief and planned around any bookings. When appropriate, I also enjoy bringing dogs along for safe outdoor time like relaxed walks or fresh air. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so your dog feels comfortable and you feel confident. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and structured environment where dogs feel secure and well cared for. In my home, I live in a single-story house with a fully fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor time and easy supervision. The space has previously been home to multiple dogs, so it’s well-suited and comfortable for them. I always prioritize safety by monitoring interactions, keeping a clean environment, and following any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s established routine to reduce stress and maintain consistency. My approach is patient, attentive, and built on trust—treating every dog as if they were my own.
“Alli was so great with our dog! She sent us so many pictures and kept me updated the whole time! She also was so sweet and sewed up my dogs toys and washed her stuffed animal! We will be using her again !!”

Heather and her family were dream dogsitters. So sweet, responsive, and loved seeing her boys cuddle up with Chai. My dog has a few additional needs as a senior dog, and Heather met them all precisely. I could tell Chai loved her so much and was so comfortable in her home!

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
99% of sitters in Minden can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Minden home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Minden.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Minden. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Minden sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NV ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
