About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 17, and over the years I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of animals big and small. From playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’ve done it all. I’m also experienced in giving medication when needed, and I truly love providing comfort, care, and companionship to every furry friend I meet. I work three days a week, which leaves me with plenty of free time to dedicate to pet sitting. It fits perfectly into my routine, and I love having the flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for animals to relax and play. I live in a quiet, pet-welcoming neighborhood with minimal traffic, making it great for walks and outdoor time. Whether your pet loves lounging or being active, they’ll feel right at home here.
“This was our second time using Olivia to take care of our cat while we were out of town. She did a great job! Olivia is a great communicator and takes excellent care of our cat. I’d definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for a good pet sitter, and I look forward to booking her again for future sits.”
About: I have been working in pet care since I was 12 years old. I have volunteered at the Nevada Humane Society on and off for 3 years and have worked with multiples types of animals there and through my own business. I have worked with dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, and even small animals. I also know administration of multiples types of pet medication and have experience in dealing with all personality types animals display. I have a 15 year old cat that I am the sole caretaker of. I have experience administering his medications, cleaning up after him, and noticing signs of when he needs medical attention. He is my whole world and I treat him like he is my own baby and I know many of you feel the same about your fur-babies. I love animals and I love all the things that come with them. I will treat them as my own and love them unconditionally! I will always treat an animal as though they are my own. For any type of service, I will not only treat your animals with respect and love, but your home as well. I have always made it a mission to keep everything organized and clean after using it. I have also made sure that pet safety is a must and have checklists designed for each family I work with to ensure they trust me and my experience when taking care of their babies.

About: I have had pets for all my life which made me very passionate about taking care of dogs. I am very reliable person that will go above and beyond when taking care of your animals. I am currently a full-time employee based in Nevada, working in Carson. I am available to come in during the evenings on weekdays and at any time on weekends. I always make sure my dog is well cared for, providing plenty of food and water. I ensure she stays comfortable and warm on cold nights. When meeting a dog I’m not familiar with, I take the time to let them know me before engaging in play.
About: I can adapt to certain circumstances and I’ll love them just as much as mine. However difficult or easy your animal is, I will always give my best. I LOVE taking care of animals so much that I willingly devote time just for them. I work part-time when I need something to do, but I just graduated so my summer is free! If staying at my house, there will be two other dogs there. Most likely they will not interact just for comfort and peace within my home.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog all her life! From puppy to senior care, I’ve adapted to whatever needs my dog has needed. I’ve also volunteered at the SPCA, taking care of a variety of different dogs. I’m currently going full-time to medical school, but my schedule has opened up a bit. My schedule changes monthly depending on what clinical rotation I’m in, but when I’m free I am more than happy to take care of your pet! My dog roams freely around my house. She is properly potty trained and mostly sticks to the living room (where her bed and food are).
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats and various creatures my whole life. I am happiest when I am in nature and among animals! I’m currently searching for work, so all of my time is free. Ideally this could become my full-time job. I am new at this so I hope you take a chance on me! I would love to do check-ins with your pets. Feed them, play with them, take them for walks, or whatever you need. I am honest, friendly and trustworthy.
About: I have had my own pets starting at a very young age, trained, rescued, volunteered at pet foundations and charities, and helped my old vet before he retired in Las Vegas for many years. Animals are my passion! I am retired and available now with an open schedule for your needs. I live with my one Beloved Cat who is tolerant of my comings and goings. First and foremost, my way of doing things is to take care of your furry baby the same way you have been doing with the same routine that you already established. This cuts down on the stress level of you being absent. I want your pet to feel loved and safe!
About: My best friends in life have been my beloved pets. I've had the privilege of being alongside several amazing dogs their entire lives. I am also a master of kitty cats! Our home has been the domain of several royal creatures throughout the years. I can help provide for your pets and offer them the attention and reliability they need when you're away. Conveniently centered in Carson City, I am available during very flexible hours and I have reliable transportation. Let's meet to see how I can help you and your animals. I am a semi retired artist, so my schedule is quite open. All of my senior animals have crossed the rainbow bridge now and I have love to give! I give animals a feeling of safety and comfort with my warm and protective presence. I am diligent in providing the correct care for a pet with their nutrition and exercise. I will follow your instructions precisely while offering an enjoyable and enriching experience!
