“I’m so pleased I connected with Khine. I have two large dogs, one is high energy boy & one that’s less ambitious, as she has a few more years on her. When we met with Khine, both my dogs liked her and were almost immediately comfortable with her. She is reliable, punctual and is confident handling my dogs. (Handling 2 large dogs is not a small task) I also really appreciate the updates and photos she sends me after each visit. I believe Khine genuinely cares about my dogs and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hello! My name is Allison, I am 35 years old. I have years of cat/ dog care under my belt. I have dog/ cat sitted for many of my moms friends. I unfortunately do not have pets at the moment but I have owned pets in the past. I love animals and offer the best care for them. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to care for your dog or cat. I have time to play with them or walk them as needed I am respectful of other people's homes and instructions on how to care for their fur babies. I make sure they are comfortable and safe by providing the best care
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 - had two german shepherds and a rottweiler growing up. Moved to Reno for my bachelor's and master's degrees. Currently have a pitbull step-child that I have helped raised since 2020. I am a quick learner and have high attention to detail. I think pets are angels on earth, and deserve all the love and cuddles that they can get. I am currently in a masters social work program, have an internship 3 days a week out in Minden, and I teach Spanish online for UNR. I really need a flexible schedule so that I am not overwhelmed with all my responsibilities and taking care of pets would give me that flexibility. I am free Saturday-Monday at any time of the day and open in the evenings Wednesday-Friday. I try to be as flexible and as reasonable as possible, and I really appreciate direct communication. I am very respectful and mindful of other peoples' privacy and space and I know that it can be worrisome letting a stranger into your home/safe space. I will do whatever you ask me to do in regards to making sure your fur baby is well taken care of. I do not mind administering medications or physical activities. I can also send pictures as check-in points and/or if there are any issues or concerns.
“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: I’ve been caring for animals from house sitting to dog walking since my teenage years, and it’s been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Neighbors, family friends, and family have trusted me to provide exceptional care for their furry companions. My deep love for animals led me to volunteer at the UCD Vet Center during high school, where I assisted veterinarians in hands on care. Later, I dedicated time to shelters like the Davis SPCA and the Pacific Palisades SPCA in Los Angeles, working with rescue animals and learning how to nurture even the most vulnerable pets. Over the years, I’ve rescued and rehabilitated numerous animals, many of whom became cherished members of my family. It’s been an incredible journey watching them thrive, whether it’s a senior dog finding comfort or a shy kitten finally coming out of their shell. My approach is rooted in holistic care, recognizing that diet, environment, and emotional well-being are just as important as physical health. I’ve seen firsthand how natural remedies, proper nutrition, and mindful interaction can transform an animal’s quality of life. Whether your pet needs a lively walk, a playful home visit, or overnight care while you’re traveling, I’d love to be their trusted companion. I believe in tailoring care to each animal’s unique personality, whether that means helping calm anxious pups or adjusting activities for a senior dog with mobility challenges. Feel free to ask me anything—I’m happy to share references or discuss how I can best support your pet’s needs. Looking forward to meeting your four-legged family member and giving them the same love and attention I’ve given animals my whole life! I am currently really flexible with days and hours available. I am working from home right now which allows me this flexibility. Open m- f as well as weekends I have a fenced yard and one dog at home that loves and gets along with all animals and is super friendly. I have plenty of space and separate rooms in the house along with a gate I can put up if your fury love wants a little space of their own for play time!
About: I am only out in the field ~2 hours/day, then I work from my computer. Guess what that means? I can give your companion(s) ALL the attention and only leave for walks/runs, odd errands, and food. There's no overestimation of the love our pets need and deserve! I have experience with aggression, anxiety, medication, potty training... you name it. I'd love to keep your furry friends company. I'm very outdoorsy, so would enjoy taking active dogs to the mountains or the park. While we're at your home, I thrive in a quiet, clean space. I work, meditate, do yoga and chill. I'll leave your space super clean and your dog(s) tuckered out and happy :) I’m only in the field ~2 hrs per day, then I work from my computer. That means I can give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. I enjoy a calm space and spend my time doing yoga, reading and meditating. I will give your pets plenty of engagement and leave your space cleaner than I found it.
“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.”

“Kat truly went above and beyond while caring for our girls over the weekend. Luna and Popis absolutely fell in love with her! She was punctual, respectful, and took the time to really understand our daily routines by asking thoughtful questions. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates while we were out of town—it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she was always easy and pleasant to talk to. Kat was our first Rover pet sitter, and she exceeded all expectations. We would absolutely book her again, and our girls would be thrilled to see her!”

“Connor was great with our dog! Our dog is easily distracted, and he taught him some techniques to improve his leash walking. Would definitely book again!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life. From a Yorkie to a German shepherd I've been around different sizes Love to go for hikes or walks. Water days are always fun as well. I would like to walk dogs full time. My schedule is pretty open. Nothing after 1700. I'm open to weekends if we talk about it prior. I deal with reactive dogs a lot. If dogs don't know each other I tend to just handle one dog at a time. Some dogs just don't get along with others like people.

“Mayra has been exceptional with my two labradoodles. She is incredibly reliable and attentive, always ensuring they receive the best care. Her dedication and love for animals shine through in every interaction. Highly recommended!”

About: I worked at a pet hotel and doggie daycare for a year. We would create play groups for certain compatible dogs, feed, administer medications, and clean up after them. I also have two family dogs for the last 10 years. I currently work Thursday-Saturday and have four days off. Also I will not be working at my current job for the full month of February so I will have full availability! I currently am renting a room in a house so I would be unable to have pets over. I would be able to stay the night at the client’s home only. I can bring pets for long walks/hikes or just relaxing and playing whatever need be. I would also like a video of the condition of the house I’d be staying at in advance.

About: 1st ingredient is passion! Ive had a love for animals since is was a kid. After high school I went to school in Manhattan and worked walking dogs and was hooked. I Went on to get my certification in basic obedience training. I have worked on and off my whole life with dogs it is truly the best job in the world to me. All the years that i have been with dogs all my clients say I am trustworthy, reliable and will go beyond the call of duty to help animals. My main objective whenever I take on an animal of any kind is Safety First! I always evaluate the animal to see how it responds to its owner and then how it responds to me and then how we respond together as a pack. Even if the client tells me their animal is okay to walk with me with other animals if I sense any sort of tension I will say no. Dogs do not have the ability to reason that's why it is very very important to speak their language and sometimes that takes a lot of patience which I have because of my devotion. I am recently retired, 2 years now. That gives me a free week including weekends to provide love and care for all fur babies in need. My entire condominium is set up for Doggy Daycare and it's wonderful it's very welcoming! There are quite a few walking paths in the neighborhood! I live in a 2 story condo with 2 private balcony's. I am on the end unit and have that side of yard (not fenced) to myself. I installed 3 separate auger tie-out cables into the ground., each 30 ft. The condo association takes care of the yard so it is well maintained. This is roughly a 10 unit dwelling surrounded by houses. 75% familys. We also have our own park. walking path and a field dedicated to dogs. I live up against BLM land so there is an awesome path to walk up as well. At Doggie Daycare they all know when it's time to go for there afternoon walks it is the cutest thing to watch them go to the front door and wait. I'm old school and still live by "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" And " treat it like it was your own" I believe all living things and non should be treated with respect. I can assure you lots of play time and love!

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!
