Cyndi and her daughter Carson helped me out when I needed a walker for my dog Ollie for the week at the last minute. They were communicative and reliable. I will definitely be contacting them next time I need a dog walker for Ollie and highly recommend them to others.

Aaron is here every day walking my Lab while I can't. He's been extremely dependable and with my current limitations that means a lot. And Lucian can't wait to go walkies.

I’m using crutches at the moment and needed someone to walk my dog. This was my first time using Rover; it’s been a great experience. Cat replied to my request quickly and on short notice, which I appreciated. My rescue dog, a terrier mix, is not around other people very often, but he took to Cat immediately and returned happy each of the three days that she walked him. It’s all gone so well that I have another week of walks scheduled with Cat.

About: I am an elementary school teacher in summer break and an animal lover! I have had small dogs all the way up to 110 bull mastiffs. I love elderly pets and bouncy youngsters. I have reptile and fish and chicken experience. Also, abilities to take care of plant pets as well! I have had animals my entire life and have a home full of furry friends today! I’m currently on summer break so my availability is wide open. I’m an early bird who can get those walks in before the heat hits. I know animals love a schedule and I can help to keep the consistency! I have a fenced in yard with friendly dogs who love to play. I am a teacher with the district who gets yearly background checks and reliable transportation

About: I have had at least 1 dog all my life. I am comfortable with any size and age, I am able to walk dogs in their familiar neighborhoods or on nearby trails. I have also had experience with a variety of breeds. I’m home from college for the summer and have a completely open schedule. I can come anytime and any day to check up on or stay with animals. I’m very thorough with pet care, I double check everything I am supposed to do, and try my best to make sure animals are comfortable around me.

About: Hello! Thanks for looking over my profile. My name is Maddy, I am a nurse / MSN Student who loves animals! I have been around animals my whole life and I am lucky to call Coco my crazy 6 year old pit mix pup my best friend + Topo our new 1.5 year old puppy :). I am an avid outdoor enthusiast. I spend all of my free time rock climbing and hiking around. I love to spend time on walks with the dogs, or just backyard hangs! I have experience with dogs as young as 12 weeks and as old as 16 years. I have been lucky lately to spend some time with some sweet kitties too. I have worked with kittens as young as 12 weeks to senior cats as old as 15. If you have an special requests I am more than happy to accommodate whatever it is that your furry friend may need. I am available 24/7 to help out your pet(s) in the Verdi / NW Reno area. My schedule can be fairly flexible if it does need to be to accommodate your furry friend! I am happy to get up early or stop by later in the day - anything that works with your schedule! I would be sure to take your pup for a walk or run around your neighborhood, the dog park if that’s their thing, whatever you are comfortable with I am happy to do. For cats I would love to do drop in visits or even take them for a walk if they are comfortable on leash. I will send lots of photos / videos to update you on our day!

About: I work from home, so dogs in my care are never left alone and always have company, attention, and love throughout the day. They get multiple walks, dog park time, a calm cozy environment, toys, music, and their own comfortable space to relax. They’re also welcome on the furniture and can sleep in bed if that’s what they’re used to. I truly see dogs as family members, not pets. I treat them the way I would treat my own child — with patience, affection, protection, and lots of care. I love having them near me while I work, and I make sure they feel safe, included, and deeply loved every moment they’re here. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home, so I’m around and available throughout the day. That means your pet gets more attention, regular potty breaks, and consistent companionship—not just a quick visit. On a typical day, I can plan morning, midday, and evening walks/potty breaks, plus playtime and feeding around my work schedule. I keep things structured but flexible, so I can match your pet’s routine (especially helpful for puppies, seniors, or pets that need extra check-ins). Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always the same: safety, routine, and a calm environment. I’m detail-oriented, I follow your instructions closely, and I keep you updated so you feel confident the whole time. In your home (drop-ins / house sitting): I stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I do safety checks (doors/gates secured, leashes/harnesses fitted correctly, no access to unsafe items). I keep the space tidy and stress low—especially for pets who do best in their familiar environment. I send photo/video updates and notes after visits. In my home (boarding / daycare): Calm, supervised environment with plenty of attention since I work from home. Frequent potty breaks, exercise, and structured downtime. I keep pets separated when needed (feeding time, high energy, or if a dog prefers their own space). Only pet-safe areas are accessible—no unsafe foods, small objects, or risky spaces. My safety rules, always: I don’t take dogs off-leash unless it’s a securely fenced area and you’ve approved it. I use positive reinforcement (no harsh methods). I watch for signs of stress or illness and communicate quickly if anything seems off. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and for you to feel totally at ease.

About: I grew up my whole life with dogs. Nothing is better then receiving their love when you walk through the door. My home even has it's own dog bathroom, dog run & house which is heated and cooled. I'm a volunteer at Nevada Humane Society. Dogs are the best!!! I'm retired but would like to get outdoors more and nothing better then walking/running a furry buddy next to me. I do have a few PRIVATE customers before I became a Rover emp. So I do try and keep my calendar up to date. I have a fenced yard, dog wash bathroom in my home which leads to a dog run and dog house heated and cooled. I have a nice big backyard that can get your dog tired out!

About: I grew up on a farm in Iowa. I’ve been around animals my whole life and they are what I think is the best part of life! I also worked in a veterinary hospital for over 10 years. I can’t wait to bring years of compassion and care experience to your pets. Weekends are my best availability. I work full time and can visit in the weekend when needed for drop in visits and or walks as needed. I feel most comfortable doing home visits, walks, and frequent potty breaks. I’d be happy to give your pets exercise on the weekend when you’re unavailable/gone.

About: Grew up having a dog (or 2 at times…as well as bunnies…and some other reptiles!). I currently live in an accommodation where I am not able to have a pet and I have become to miss animals more and more! There is no such thing as a bad animal, only a poorly trained one, and I treat them all with love and care. I’m available every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day (and night)! My schedule can be as free as needed on those days and I am open to spending lots of time with your pets to make sure they get the best care possible! I am very careful and thoughtful around pets and other people’s property. I will treat your belongings and animals with the utmost respect and care.

McCallister was awesome! She was reliable and dependable, and was great with communication! She had no problem handling our big dogs, and I’m sure they were excited to see her each time she came to walk them! I’d would absolutely reach out to McCallister again if/when we need help in the future! Thank you!

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I keep a calm, clean home and limit the number of pets I board at one time so each pet gets plenty of individual attention. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine, providing a low-stress environment, and keeping you updated with daily photos and check-ins. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. Because I work from home full time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship while you’re away. Plenty of outside time and cuddle time! When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain a clean, calm environment and limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives plenty of attention. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime. Because I work from home full time, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision and companionship. I also provide daily photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining consistency and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medications if needed, and any household preferences. I’m respectful of your home and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed while keeping you updated with photos and detailed check-ins after each visit.

About: I've have taken care of animals since I was in elementary school, I have taken care of reptiles so I'm not afraid of bugs and I've also taken care of dogs and even during covid I had a family member bring me their dogs for 3 months to take care of them. Currently since I moved to reno and looking for a part time job I have a lot of time to be taking care of dogs currently so I don't mind what time it will be. I have two dogs and they are friendly, and I always look out for them weather that's in my backyard or on a hike since currently in reno there seems to be many snakes out there and I would like to keep them safe, but also want them to have fun while being safe.
