I have an apartment for now and its warm and cozy, but there is a dog park around the corner from here and ill gladly walk him or her as long as we are scheduled.

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I prioritize regular feeding, exercise, and companionship for the pets I care for, ensuring their well-being and happiness. I have a park near by for the dog(s) to play and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby(s) company. I have a doggy fence for your dog(s), incase I need to crate him/her. But this will give him/her more space to to relax, eat (if needed), and play with toys in its own comfort.

About: My JRT and I were a Certified Pet Therapy Team until his death, at age 17, in March 2025. I want to give and receive doggie energy and love until I am ready for a new full time companion. I am a retired professional working as a yoga instructor and End of Life Doula. I am experienced and comfortable with adult, senior, ill, and end of life doggy woggies. My schedule varies from week to week. On the weekends, I might take your dog to the mountains for outdoor adventure (or inside rest). Let me know your needs and I will try to make it work into my schedule. I prefer drop-ins, walks, or sleep-overs at our house. I have a doggie door for small dogs and a fully fenced back yard. I have a backpack and snuggly for those who like to be close. We are open to couch and bed surfing.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I have always loved animals. I have pet sat for neighbors and friends who have relied on me to feed and take out their pets. I also worked at a dog daycare/boarding recently for a summer. I love animals and want to give them to best experience while their owners are gone! I am in school and would love to help pets get some time on walks or outside during my mid day downtime! I want to make sure I keep a routine for animals while their owners are gone. I take pride in providing the best care and following all care instructions. I have a puppy who my family and I have been training. Even though this doesn’t apply to the service I offer, He is easily crated and goes on walks well.

About: My sister relied on me to house sit and watch her dogs for a couple of weeks every summer when I was in middle and high school. I grew up with dogs and was responsible for taking them on walks, feeding them, brushing them, bathing them, and playing with them. I am between jobs so I am quite flexible right now. I am looking to get a full-time position at which point I will update my schedule here. My cats are feral rescues so I cannot afford to bring any other animals into my home, but I am very cautious while going on walks to be very aware of other dogs (especially off leash), people driving too fast in residential areas, and making sure to bring adequate water for walks on warm days.

About: I grew up around dogs, a jack russell terrier, a black lab and shepherd mix, and German sheperds. I helped take care of the dogs, feeding them, taking them outside, and also playing with them. I have experience with puppies, as well as senior dogs. I have some experience with cats as well, as my mother currently owns 2 and I've fed and entertained them. I am also a UNR student studying Theatre, so during the regular school season, my schedule may vary but as long as I'm not in class or working on a production, I'm generally free and would love the chance to walk/watch your wonderful pet(s). As a theatre student at UNR, my schedule can vary, but please reach out if you have questions about a specific day and/or time! I cannot board pets in my home, but I can certainly walk your pets, and care for them in your home if you need to leave them home for long periods of time. I am a very attentive person, and I love playing with animals, so I can watch your pet(s) and make sure their needs are met, such as going outside to use the bathroom and feeding them. Your dog/cat(s) will get plenty of attention, as I will play with them and even work on simple commands with them, such as sit and lay down. If your dog/cat has a specific eating schedule or diet, just let me know and I will make sure to follow it.

Kate was great with our two large breed dogs! We hired Kate for drop in visits while my husband and I were out of town. She was punctual and had great communication. One of my dogs is nervous around people however he immediately liked Kate. She played ball with him in our backyard to give him some exercise and gave attention and pets to our other dog. Would definitely hire Kate again!

About: I can share my love of dogs. I am always available for your dogs, I can give them the care, comfort, love and attention that they need when you are away. I can take them for long walks, dog games and basic training, give them baths if need me, brush them, nail cutting, take care of their meals and any medications needed in a timely manner and make sure that they are well taken care of. Indoor activities is also beneficial that way they are always in the present with me. I want them to have a balance of activities and rest. I have several pet references to prove how I care for the dogs I have and the dogs that I have pet sit for before. I try my best to fit in with the client’s schedule. Communication is key in providing the best pet care. I always have eyes on the pet. The pet will have several activities, such as walking and playing games. A tired dog is a happy dog. There would be nap time and treat times.

About: Maddie, my 10-year-old Bearded Collie, and I absolutely love getting to care for pets in their own homes! Maddie has been socialized with just about every dog under the sun and is a gentle, well-mannered companion. With over 15 years of pet-sitting experience, I specialize in house sitting only, which means Maddie will need to come along—but rest assured, she’ll be fantastic company for your pup! Of course, I always ensure supervised interactions and never leave them alone together. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority! I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, but I can take a lunch break during the day to stop by for potty breaks and quick check-ins! Overnight house sitting fits seamlessly into my routine, ensuring your pet gets plenty of care and companionship while you’re away. When house sitting, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their usual routines. I follow all provided care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and exercise routines. Maddie, my 10-year-old Bearded Collie, will accompany me, but I ensure all interactions are supervised, and pets are never left alone together. I create a calm, structured, and loving atmosphere, providing plenty of attention, playtime, and reassurance. Safety is my top priority—I keep a close eye on pets during walks, secure doors and gates, and always respect any household rules. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away!

Alexius did an outstanding job caring for one of my cats while I was away for a weekend. She did all the necessaries of feeding and litter box duty, of course, but her visit reports out to me were so welcome! Every time I got one I knew I had left my little kitty in good hands. Alexius is wonderful! I'd highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care service. Thank you Alexius!

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!

Carson saved the day! Our booking was last minute, due to unforeseen circumstances, while we were out of town and Carson stepped up and helped us out beautifully! Thor adored her and she took extra care to send pics and let us know how he was doing which gave us peace of mind until we returned. We look forward to hopefully having Carson spend more time with Thor.
