“Angie was fantastic! She went above and beyond in caring for my 2 dogs. She walked them every day, some days multiple times and just took great care of them. The photos were forthcoming after each visit and my dogs just loved her visits. I saw them on my Ring cams running after Angie and jumping up to meet her when she arrived. I will use Angie forever!”


“Jennifer was fabulous!! She was so easy to work with and took great care of my pup 🩷 I always get nervous leaving town and leaving her, but Jennifer took such amazing care of her that I wasn’t stressed!! Would definitely book again”


“Sherina went above and beyond taking care of my fur babies. I will absolutely look to Sherina again and greatly appreciate her excellent communication and skill around working with my sugar gliders and cats.”


About: I've been a dog lover since I was born, when I was a kid I helped out around at a breeder that we got one of our dogs from. I am experienced with both bred and raised as well as rescues, and know that much of the time you have to meet them where they are. Not scared of a little slobber or cleaning up if your pup gets a little too excited. Currently unemployed, so I have full availability to help take care of your pet (within reason of course). Morning feedings would include a walk and some enrichment (fetch, tug-of-war, chase, etc). Open to special care requests, though I am not very experienced in delivering any medications that require restraint of the animal. My current residence is not suitable for animals so all care will be done at the client residence. I am open to half hour walks once a day or 2 twenty minute walks at various times (though with the summer weather I recommend the half hour walk to save your dog's feet). Special care requests such as food additives, soaking kibble, and oral medications are welcome. Upon request will give a summary of events with each visit as well as updates on the pet's current state of being.

About: I've loved animals since i was little, dogs,cats,lizards anything. I have taken care of dogs and cats and lizards. I have trained dogs and cats. I am somewhat busy, but animals make everything better. I am currently available weekday 9am until 9pm. I am only available for 1-2 hours on the weekends. I make sure to know where the pets are at at all times. I make sure anything they shouldn't have is put away and out of reach. I make sure your animals arw safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 30 years! Large dogs, small dogs, and every breed in between. I love taking dogs for new adventures! I currently work nights Thursday thru Sunday which gives me plenty of time to spend with your furry family member! On my days off you can find me at the dog park or on the trails with my own dog. I have a fenced yard and a year old border collie, Douglas Fur, to keep your furry family member company. Fresh water and treats galore!

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 (25-35 hours a week) and am in college but I have lots of free time. I do not mind driving back and forth repeatedly to let your animals outside for a little while i am on my breaks. 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.

“My dog was pretty comfortable with Jonathan right when she met him! She can be a little hesitant with new people coming in the house, especially men, but he clearly has experience in his approach to new dogs . He is considerate and comes through consistently to walk her while I am at work every week. It is a huge plus to know my dog will be seeing a familiar face and getting a walk when I am away from home for long hours. It is the perfect fit and I would recommend him to anyone.”


“Claire is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. Her scheduling system is easy to use and she provided great care for my 3 dogs while I was out of town for a weekend. Claire was easy to reach and respond, and gives updates after her visits. I highly recommend Claire and would definitely schedule her again.”


About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have trained my own dogs from puppies! I work well with dogs and love going on walks to get out of the house! I am currently a college student with a sporadic schedule. Usually afternoons are open for me and possibly early morning depending on the job. Make sure to reach out to me so I can make sure my schedule can align with your needs :) I usually feed animals on schedule and take them on walks to get out of the house in the afternoon and get them all tired out at the dog park or take them out on a run to get them the proper exercise they need

About: I have taken care of all types of animals including dogs and cats since I was 14. I have experience in working in a vet clinic and can handle if any major or minor inconveniences happen. I have walked, fed, done drop ins, and stayed in order to watch dogs and cats. I am also comfortable and have experience giving any sort of medication. I am currently an undergraduate student at UNR and am not working so anytime I don’t have class I have time to watch over animals or do drop ins in between classes. I live in a student apartment so I would be willing to watch cats but I also have roommates and want to remain respectful. However I am comfortable crating or handling cats in dogs in any environment including their home.

“Skylar was a fantastic cat sitter! She was super flexible with timing, making the whole process stress-free. Communication was easy and smooth, and I always felt reassured knowing my cats were well cared for. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and accommodating pet sitter! I will be calling her again!”
