“Highly recommend. Cyndi and her daughter are a delight. I was quite anxious about hiring a cat sitter for 11 days, but the moment I met them, they put me at ease. I felt confident that they would take great care of my two cats. They did not disappoint. I would hire them again to catsit.”

About: Healthcare worker by day, pet sitter… also by day. I’ve worked with animals since I was 15, pet sitting and volunteering at cat shelters. I love spending time with them and taking some stress off owners while they’re away. I can also take care of plants, reptiles, etc. I’m available Monday-Friday after 5 pm and weekends any time! I only do overnight house sitting on weekends as well, but I can make exceptions for emergencies! The animal/owner preference always comes first! My kitties are very dog-like, I take them on walks and bring them to cafes for enrichment. I love working with both cats and dogs since it lets me spend time with some puppies!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young, especially helping with my sister’s and friends pets over the years. I’m very comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals, and I always make sure they get attention, love, and proper care. I’m available Friday evenings after 6 PM and all day Saturday and Sunday. During those times, I can give your pets my full attention, including walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I’m very attentive and patient, and I treat every pet like my own to make sure they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

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.

“Kylie is SO good and responsive in caring for my 20 yr old kitty! I usually don't like to leave her, but have had a few 'life' things happen in the last couple of months and Kylie has taken extra special care of my girl. Highly recommend and will be booking with her in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple kinds of animals since I was a child. I am a dog mom to a big rescue dog named Jimmy. I love the outdoors and going for walks. I have experience working with shelter animals who have had a tough transition into their forever homes. I also have experience in senior dogs as well as end of life care for our fur family members I currently work from home so if you need someone to come and sit with your babies I am free to do so. I have all mornings/ early afternoons off through the week. Tuesdays I work early but am off at 11am and am free after that. Weekends I’m fully open. I have a 2 bedroom apartment with a dog myself. I live close to trails and the Rancho San Rafael dog park. I also am flexible in whatever your pers needs are

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life. We had cats, dogs, rabbits, Guinea pigs, birds, fish, frogs and hamsters. I recently started house/pet sitting for extra money, as my teacher salary does not cut it. This is a great way to earn extra cash doing something I love. **I take care of small caged animals as well. In my home or yours! I work full time as a teacher. My last child just moved out, so I am available to stay over night. I leave for work at 8:15 and am off at 3:45. I am available all weekend. I take care of pets exactly as my clients ask. I follow instructions explicitly. I communicate if I have questions and am available for them to communicate with me.

“Highly recommend Sydney!”

About: I have owned and loved dogs my whole life, and really just love animals in general. I volunteer at the Nevada Humane Society and have completed "Fear Free" training. I have experience with senior dogs and understand their needs and limitations. I will be sure to follow all instructions and love your fur babies as much as you do. I recently retired and now have time to pet all the dogs! I am recently retired so I have a very flexible schedule for dog walking, mid-day potty breaks/play time, or house sitting. I can often take same day requests. I follow all instructions given and I am very good at communicating via text if any questions arise, or if you just want a quick photo of your fur baby. I am extremely trustworthy and reliable. My past career in information technology project management has made me very organized, punctual, and detail oriented.

“Jenn is very knowledgeable and great with our pup. We look forward to continue using her for drop ins and house sitting in the future!”

About: 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! I am a student at Orvis nursing school, UNR which means I have classes and a 13 hr clinical shift on Fridays. I try not to schedule on Fridays unless owners are aware of my schedule. I will be fully upfront with you about my availability and how it interacts with your pet’s needs! Message me for clarification or questions! 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!

“I couldn't have been happier with the service provided by Alexius. She really came through for me when my neighbor canceled last minute. She was very professional and a pleasure to meet. Lula also loved her which is the most important. She is also a Vet tech so you know she's passionate about animals and knows the signs and symptoms if your pet happens to be under the weather while you're gone. Don't think twice about booking her, if she can watch your pet you'll be very pleased and so will your pet!”
