“Taylor does a great job with both of my dogs. She goes the extra mile on walks to make sure they get their exercise. I highly recommend Taylor for all your dog needs.”
2. Jennifer B.
“"I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Jennifer. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Our dog, Minion, was instantly comfortable and happy in her presence. Jennifer provided regular updates, complete with photos, which put our minds at ease while we were away. When we returned, Minion was calm and well-cared-for, clearly having had a wonderful time. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!" Don't share sensitive info. Chats may be reviewed and used to train our models. Learn more”

About: I have 25 years of experience loving and caring for dogs and cats. I am experienced with senior dogs and puppies. I am a very patient and loving pet sitter who works remotely with a flexible schedule and can be at home with your pets throughout the day and night. Experienced in taking dog walks, field trips to parks, and even day hiking if you have a high-energy breed. I also know that every pet has a personality with unique preferences and routines. I want to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you are away and keep their “routine” as much as possible❤️! My partner and I have two sibling mini Aussies, but they will stay behind at home with their dog dad so that I can give your pets 100% focused and loving attention. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, ensuring your dog has focused and dedicated attention day and night in your home where they are most comfortable. I prefer to only care for pets in the owner's home, and I will leave my fur babies at home with their dog daddy so your pets can have 100% of my focus and TLC while you’re away.

8. Tanya M.
About: I have 3 dogs and 1 cat and have had pets all my life. I pet sit for friends and family when needed, even pets that require medication. I’m in the medical field so I’m not afraid of that. I like to travel and open to areas outside of Reno/Tahoe with sufficient notice. I do work full time. I’m off at 3pm. Im available after 3pm and in the evening M-F to go to your home and open on the weekends. I love to travel and drive or fly to LA almost every month. I can expand my weekend availability for house sitting if given sufficient notice (at least a week) for areas outside of Reno/Carson/Tahoe. House sitting is like a mini vacation for me since I have grown adult children that I ADORE but…mama needs alone time, with animals 🐶🐱 I’m available to do drop ins and over night on the weekends in your home. I can take your furry loved ones for walks in the neighborhood or to the dog park and around the river if that’s okay. I do have the perfect size pet friendly backyard and lots of toys for little field trips for play dates with my pups.
