About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I keep a calm, clean home and limit the number of pets I board at one time so each pet gets plenty of individual attention. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine, providing a low-stress environment, and keeping you updated with daily photos and check-ins. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. Because I work from home full time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship while you’re away. Plenty of outside time and cuddle time! When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain a clean, calm environment and limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives plenty of attention. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime. Because I work from home full time, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision and companionship. I also provide daily photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining consistency and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medications if needed, and any household preferences. I’m respectful of your home and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed while keeping you updated with photos and detailed check-ins after each visit.
“I’m using crutches at the moment and needed someone to walk my dog. This was my first time using Rover; it’s been a great experience. Cat replied to my request quickly and on short notice, which I appreciated. My rescue dog, a terrier mix, is not around other people very often, but he took to Cat immediately and returned happy each of the three days that she walked him. It’s all gone so well that I have another week of walks scheduled with Cat.”

About: My family and I have owned pets since I can remember. I am currently 33 with 3 pets of my own, but have grown up with pets in the home my whole childhood. My family always had dogs and cats in our home, and additionally I owned a bearded dragon, fish, and a tortoise that I helped care for daily. Once I moved to college in 2014, I got my first pet of my own. Her name is Stella and she has been with me for the last 12 years. She has lived with me in Oregon, Texas, and now Reno. Additionally, my wife and I have a silly orange cat named Nemo, and a fun/energetic Frenchie named Comet. While living in Texas we adopted another cat with FeLV who also developed diabetes. I have experience giving insulin injections and taking blood glucose readings. I have met and cared for many of my friend’s pets of all ages and sizes and can responsibly provide all daily care for your furry babies as needed. This includes but is not limited to feeding, walking, playing, transporting, giving oral meds, and subcutaneous injections. I currently work as a teacher and have extended breaks during the fall, winter, and summer. During the school year I will have availability during afternoons and evenings for some care activities, and weekends for more. During breaks, if not traveling, and I will have a lot more flexibility daily. Update 06/08: I am currently on summer break from teaching. My weekday availability has been updated with more available times/ services. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my 2 dogs and an indoor cat. The pets have access to the entire unit including furniture during the day and when sleeping. Our spare bedroom can be used for your pet if they are more anxious and want separation from the other animals. My dogs are crated when no one is home to supervise, and the cat has full access to the unit at all times. My pets are all friendly towards other dogs and cats. In the past when sitting for animals, I have them fall into the same routines as my animals for walking, feeding, pottying, and crating, unless specified different by the owner. When doing drop ins and house sitting, I follow all instructions left by the owner.

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 have four dogs from 10 pounds to 150 pounds, and I’ve had dogs my whole life! I love taking care of animals so much that I wanted to be a vet when I was younger. I’m working part time and going to school so I should have plenty of time to play with your dogs or cats! I have two days off a week, as well! I am happy to follow any instructions for your dog’s care, I know it’s not one size fits all! Please let me know of any special commands your dog has, and I’ll be sure to try and work on them with them!

“Sydney was an excellent pet sitter. She was very professional, organized and communicative throughout the 5 days she watched and walked my dog and cat. Sydney sent me information and pictures for each dog walk, keeping me up to date on my dog's sore paw and really gave me peace of mind knowing that a very caring responsible person was coming over twice a day to attend to my pets needs. I have been very impressed with Sydney and recommend her highly.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up in a family that always had multiple dogs, I've been around pets my entire life and understand the attention, patience, and care they need to feel happy and comfortable. I regularly care for my parents' dogs whenever they travel, and I've also helped friends by providing dependable pet care while they're away. In addition, I currently live with two cats, so I'm experienced with feline care as well. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm and caring companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family and will provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable care for your pets. I work part-time and manage my other projects independently, which means I can often adjust my schedule to meet your pet's needs. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention throughout the day, I have the availability to make sure they receive the care they deserve. My goal is to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. One of my favorite parts of pet care is getting to know each animal's unique personality. Every pet is different, and I enjoy learning what makes them happy, whether that's playing with their favorite toy, going for walks, exploring outside, receiving extra cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I take the time to build trust with each pet and tailor my care to their individual needs, preferences, and energy level so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away.
About: I've had animals my whole life but started professionally working with them about 5 years ago. My own animals are special needs, so I know what it's like to need someone to care for them. I love animals and hope to get to know yours! I'm available on Saturday, Sunday, Monday afternoon/evening and the evening on Friday! Other days I work full time at an animal clinic and go to school, so weekends are what I can do for you! I am very good at reading animal behavior and knowing how to get dogs and cats to trust (or at least tolerate) me. I also am familiar with a lot of different medicines and how important it is to administer them carefully, as I had a pet with chronic illnesses and work with them daily. I want to use my knowledge from working at the clinic to help you and your pets.
About: I work at an animal hospital and have cpr training. I enjoy sitting for dogs as well as cats. I am detail-oriented and love keeping owners updated!

Reach out with times and I will try and match them! I ensure all doors to your home are locked, I also clean up any messes animals make. I take pictures of the animals food to ensure they are eating (specifically cats). I ensure the animals look happy and healthy before I leave.

Incredible sitter who’s both reliable and consistent. She always spent extra time to make sure my puppy was well taken care of. Communication was great throughout, and I always felt comfortable having her in my home and trusting her with my puppy who I care about a lot.

Jessica is an awesome dog walker! She helped walk and feed my pup while I was at work. She sends the cutest pictures and gives a lovely summary of how the walk went. I am grateful for Jessica for being dependable and giving my pup oodles of love and attention! Thank you!

The whole process with Samantha has been positive. She was on time our initial meetup and was easy to talk to. She didnt seem phased by my dog's excited barking, which scares some people. On the day of the walk i got a notification and a photo, and Samantha responded promptly when I asked how everything went. She locked up when she left and everything was in order when I got home! I will definitely be booking her again. Thank you, Samantha:)

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.
