“I was very please with Ashley and the updates that she provided me about my dog. My dog seemed to love her and that's a big plus! Would definitely get in contact again when I have to work further away from town.”

“Mackenzie was really sweet, she came over my house before to meet my puppy, you can tell she loves dogs, my shepherd can be a little bit afraid when is about meeting new people but Mackenzie worked with her slowly and now they have been going for walks together and having a good time, I will keep her as my primary pet sitter!”

“Bob did an outstanding job taking care of Winston for nearly a week. He handled my detailed instructions with ease and went above and beyond to make sure my pet was well cared for. I truly can’t recommend him more!”

“Kathryn has been reliable and trustworthy with walking my 2 doggies. I really have piece of mind knowing the dogs are going to get great care and a great walk while I'm at work!”


“Cyndi (and really her entire family) have been awesome with my two little pups. I got them as rescues so they definitely have separation anxiety when I leave the house for long periods. But I can always easily tell when Cyndi has been by, as they are noticeably calmer and happier when I come home. Highly recommended!”

About: Hello, I'm Mira! I own two little fur babies of my own, both bulldogs. One of the main things I understand in searching for a pet sitter is someone who genuinely cares for your babies safety and stimulation when left without their owner, so I hope to be assistance and relieve some of that anxiety you may be feeling. I specialize in in-depth hygiene care for dogs, as well as medical assistance for those who need it. One of my bulldogs, an oldie who is 6 years old, requires constant cleaning and medication such as eye drops, ear washes, and pills every morning and night. My other one, 4 years, who is a ball of energy, needs 24/7 activity to provide him with enough release and content at the end of the day. I am not unfamiliar with the intensive care they need, as well as the love they deserve, no matter their history. So I hope to be there for your babies and give them the utmost satisfaction. :) With school, I have classes with huge breaks that allow me to work and head right your way. Friday's are my best weekdays, as I am available from 12pm and on. As for my pets, one of them loves to sunbathe and lounge, considering his old nature and joint problems, while the other requires an immense amount of energy to get him through the day without being bored. With previous dogs in the past, many were just as he was, needing constant play time and outdoor time to get them rejuvenated! Luckily for them, I loved hiking and taking brisk walks, so for them, it was a perfect match.
About: Hi there! I’m a 29 year old living in Reno for the past 10 years. I’m currently located in Northwest Reno area. I'm a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for all pets big or small! Since I was little I have been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. During college I worked at a boarding/training facility, volunteered at the Humane Society, and still love taking care of pets. I consider myself a patient, reliable, attentive individual who prioritizes open and honest communication so you will always be in the loop. My dream is to have at least four dogs on property and to open a dog rescue to save, foster, and find loving homes for dogs in need. In the meantime I’m looking to help people with their pet care needs. Whether it’s a long walk, play session, a cuddle break, or sticking to specific routines I’m here to provide reliable, compassionate care and peace of mind. I work from home full time! My work schedule is Tuesday-Friday 9-6pm. For DAYCARE: Monday - Friday with occasional weekend availability. FOR WALKING: I’m always trying to get more steps in! Saturday, Sunday, Monday are my most open days. Also open to midweek walks if you live nearby. I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with lots of walking paths to mix up our daily walks. I also live about a 12 minute walk or 2 minute drive away from San Rafael Dog Park if your dog likes to run off leash, play ball, and meet new friends we can work that into the schedule. Reach out with any questions you have and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work from home & have lots of flexibility in my schedule. I’m looking to go on more walks throughout the day and meet some new furry friends to hang out with. Please reach out with any questions you may have for me! I have a fenced backyard with grass for basking in the sun, playing fetch, and lots of potty breaks. I also live near a big dog park if your dog loves meeting new friends.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 13 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and special care needs. Your pet will always be safe, happy, and cared for with me. I have my own dog as well and would treat your pet like my own!! I currently work on a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and can leave work anytime on weekdays to take care of your pet. I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of walks, playtime, and love while you’re away! I have A dog park right next to my apartment and one friendly dog to keep your pup company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow any routines you provide. We have lots of dog toys and go on lots of walks everyday! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have sat for SO MANY families outside of this app over the years and will send you lots of photos of your pup if you want them!
“Lenore has been so great with our pup! She is reliable/always on time and is super loving with Ella. We feel comfortable and grateful that she is able to help us with walks, and would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs care for their pets!”

About: I have years of personal experience with animals. I also have experience volunteering at the SPCA of Northern Nevada. I am a dedicated worker and care about animals very much. I know the joy they bring and I know how important they are to the people who love them. I prioritize your animals’ happiness and ensure your home remains safe and clean. I work part time (30-35 hours a week) and am in college but I spend the rest of my time with your animals. I work 2 jobs, so I do not mind driving back and forth repeatedly to let your animals outside for a little while i am on my breaks/between shifts. I usually have 1-3 hours between shifts and I don’t work nights so the rest of my time is spent with your animals I enjoy giving everything I can to take care of animals. I am currently unable to board animals in my own residence, as I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own, but I treat my client’s home with the same respect that I would give to my own grandma’s house. I am willing to clean around the house and do any chores that are needed, and my prices are flexible so you can be sure your animals are cared for even in tight budget situations.
About: I grew around dogs of all sizes and breeds. My family rescued our dogs and sometimes those dogs had special needs or required extra care. Our last dog Buster (my baby), had anxiety and when he would get overwhelmed we put on a tight coat that helped him feel less anxious. I loved Buster so much. I haven't been able to get another dog yet, even though I love dogs and I love being around them. I will treat your dog with love and care. My current schedule is wide open. I work for the Forest Service and unfortunately, I am one of the government employees affected by the shutdown. I will let you know in advance if my schedule changes when/if the government opens. You are the parent and I am the sitter. Pet owners should be able to feel comfortable and confident leaving their pet behind. If your pet follows a set schedule, diet, or walking route I will fill in and make sure they stay close to their routines. I think it helps ease anxiety and makes your absence easier.
About: Firstly, I have lived with animals my entire life, from big dogs to lizards! I have also been volunteering at shelters since I was 11 years old with dogs of all kinds of sizes and personalities! Not only have I trained my dogs from home, but I have used those skills to train the shelter dogs obedience, leash work, and even cool party tricks! On top of this, I’ve been training my dogs alongside real police K9 trainers whom have introduced me to training tactics that have even made me comfortable working with reactive dogs. I’m currently a university student without a current job (but past working experience!) and a lot of flexibility, so if you need a sitter or walker who is dedicated, experienced, determined, and flexible, I’m here to support your furry friends! Currently I am not working a part-time job, so my schedule is very flexible! I can do overnights and my weekends are usually free other than the occasional trips out of town. Currently my weekday schedule varies from Monday-Friday, where I’m available after 11am M, W, and F, whereas on Tu, Th I’m available after 4:30pm. I am not in a suitable living situation to house animals at the moment, but I can do overnights at my clients homes. Let me know of any and all personal pet routines and I will follow them accordingly!
“Jon took care of my 2 year old pup, Niko. The first day Niko met Jon, he was so excited and happy to meet him mailing a new friend immediately. Jon is very professional, knows what he is doing, and how to handle dogs. Good and fast communication with Jon. He always sent updates and pictures. I would have Jon take care of Niko again in the future and i would totally recommend him! Thank you!”
