“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.”

“MK was fantastic with Frankie and Maggie. She sent lots of pictures and the puppies were so happy to see her each day. Added benefit, they were much better walkers after their time with MK. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Jonathan is great with our husky dog. He’s also easy to communicate with, responds promptly, and accommodates our schedule changes with flexibility and ease. All around great experience!”
“I have a pretty anxious rescue dog who's shy around strangers and Claire did such a great job walking him! She was very friendly and so patient with him. She took time to make him feel comfortable with her and would try new things to get him to continue to walk when he got anxious (pets, treats, etc.) Highly recommend Claire!”
About: I treat every dog like my own—focused on safety, love, and making each walk their favorite part of the day. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep owners updated. I am a full time nursing student and walks keep me sane! I go on walks every day with my own dog usually early in the morning or evening. I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly space where animals feel at home. I stick to their routines, give them lots of attention, and always make sure they’re comfortable, exercised, and loved.
About: Hello! I’m currently a vet tech been working in the veterinary industry since I was 15. I also grew up on a ranch always surrounded by many animals. I’ve been helping take care of animals since I was extremely young. I just graduated from UNR with a bachelor’s in Vet Science hoping to go to vet school in the future. I am willing to help out in any way needed. My schedule can be flexible I do currently work at a vet hospital. Daily I’m available after 6pm if needing more during the day care Saturday-Monday I’m most available. I have a cat of my own and a roommate with a dog. My cat is always cared for like a kind with everything being cleaned on a daily basis. Also making sure he’s fed properly plus his daily probiotics. I also help my roommate take her dog out before work and after making sure she’s fed and having lots of entertainment when we aren’t home. I take care of any pet like I would mine with respect and love.
About: I have owned animals my whole life and pet sat for other people's pets since I was a kid. I love any and all animals, and treat all animals as if they were my own. My pets are family to me, and I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with the care of your family member. I think each pet has a unique personality, and I love getting to know each and every one. My pets are personally lonely when left alone, so I take that into consideration and try to make the transition of pets' owners being away as smoothly as I can. I'm careful to follow specific instructions, and go above and beyond the minimum to help your pets have a good experience.
About: I currently have three dogs of my own and have been around dogs my entire life. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and quirks, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and deeply committed to caring for animals with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether it’s senior care, giving medications, or just making sure your dog gets enough play and affection, I’m reliable and ready to help. I work full-time on weekdays during normal work hours and have availability most weekends. If your pup needs an evening walk on a weekday I’m willing to adjust my availability if needed! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I follow each pet’s routine closely: feeding schedules, walks, medications, and playtime, so they feel secure and cared for. In a client’s home, I always respect the space and keep things tidy while making sure their pet feels relaxed and loved. In my own home, pets get plenty of attention, supervised play, and cozy spots to rest. I check in regularly with updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing.
“We have been having Jen walk our 2 doodle pups for just over a month now and we could not be happier! The doggos just ❤️ their walks with her; and I could not ask for better flexibility or communication! So happy to have found her. She is the BEST!”
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.
“My sweet golden LOVES Caelan. She goes above & beyond to care for my pup & always shares photos of her daily walks with me. Will most definitely keep rebooking with her in the future. 🤍”
About: Worked with animals my entire life, volunteered at animal shelters as a teen and genuinely love being around dogs and cats. Message me anytime day or night if you need help. Willing to work any hours that are need day or night, whenever I'm available. Feel free to call, text, or email me for schedules. Overnight included. I care for my animals the same I would for anyone else's. Willing to care for anyone's place as it was my own as well.

Reno dog parents share their Rover experiences
We have had Ashley watch our puppy regularly for the past few weeks, and have had such a wonderful experience! She has been reliable, kind, and has truly cared for our pup as if he were her own. She has been fabulous about helping us feel informed, and keeping us updated with messages and pictures. It has made a big difference for our puppy while we have been working! We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and attentive.
For me Alexis is the ideal dog walker. And exactly who I was hoping to find through my first Rover experience. Communication leading up to the dog walker was clear and simple. On the day of the walk Alexis was on time and my dog Paloma immediately took a liking to her. The walk went very well and I happily agreed to schedule Alexis for future walks and potential dog sitting in the future.
We previously said we would use Holly's services again. And we did! not disappointment. Holly is great, kind and loves to play with Lilly. Excellent communication and she always sends the right amount of pictures. She now is our go-to sitter in Reno, full confidence.
Analysa has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Pickles! She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Pickles took to her right away, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands while I was working swing shifts. She showed up right on time, sent great updates, and even went the extra mile to make sure he got a good walk and some love. Couldn’t ask for a better dog walker—highly recommend Analysa!
Nico has been great with my dog—she always comes back happy and tired from walks or the dog park! He's super friendly, reliable, and it's clear he really enjoys spending time with dogs and takes great care of them. I really appreciate the care he gives her. Highly recommend!
Connor is amazing with dogs. He has a natural aura to bond with such a calm mannerism. He also went above and beyond to pick up a destroyed bed so I didn’t have to do it after a 12 hour shift at the hospital. He looks at the big picture in a home and helps out with other dogs as needed without a second thought.
