About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young, especially helping with my sister’s and friends pets over the years. I’m very comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals, and I always make sure they get attention, love, and proper care. I’m available Friday evenings after 6 PM and all day Saturday and Sunday. During those times, I can give your pets my full attention, including walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I’m very attentive and patient, and I treat every pet like my own to make sure they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

“Ashley was great! She was on time, responded to messages quickly and my cats liked her right away. She took care of them, spent a little time with them each visit and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to happy cats. This was my first time using Rover and it was fantastic. And I’m very happy to have found you!”

“Cat has been absolutely amazing with my dogs. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and a true dog whisperer! One of my pups has been anxious as of late and Cat was nothing short of patient and kind and worked with my pup to help her feel more comfortable. I’m so thankful for the love and care she shows my dogs.”

About: I grew up learning how to train and manage dogs in the home, I’ve cared for animals my whole life and trained multiple dogs. I currently care for many pets in my own home including reptiles, invertebrates, fish, and a dog. I also love caring for plants. I am a very respectful and non judgement person. I wake up usually around 10 am but am comfortable waking up earlier if needed. I have my own dog and usually walk her when I wake up, again mid day, and once again before I leave for my optional night job. I also have tank lights and water dishes I check morning and night. I could do stop in care during Friday-Sunday and more full time care Monday-Thursday. If your pet loves to play I am more than happy to keep them entertained, I also have a medium dog compression sweater that I can supply if you have a dog that has anxiety. I understand most pet body language and can know when your pet needs comfort, play, potty, or space.

About: I have always owned a pet of some sort, from dogs and cats to turtles and snails. I’m not afraid of any animal and I will treat them with the love and the care that you would want someone to treat a child. I do believe pets need authoritative speech but they will always be taught with respect. I am dedicating the first half of my day to volunteer work in our area and the second half is to take care of your pets. When I am with your pet I will be present, playing with them if they are younger and need to exercise their body or lightly encouraging movement if they are older. Essentially, when they are in my care they will have all of their needs met. I thank you for trusting me in the confines of your home. My one and only focus will be to take care of your pets. If possible I would like to spending time with them outside as it is important for them to experience their play in the sun.

About: I love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have a dachshund of my own, so I understand how much pets mean to their families and how important it is to know they’re in good hands. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. I’m responsible, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll treat your pets like my own while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I just finished graduate school and have some downtime before starting my new job, so I have plenty of time to give your pet lots of attention, care, and companionship! My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away! I have a fenced yard and a dachshund of my own who loves other dogs! I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s individual needs to make sure they feel comfortable and at home.

About: I work from home, so dogs in my care are never left alone and always have company, attention, and love throughout the day. They get multiple walks, dog park time, a calm cozy environment, toys, music, and their own comfortable space to relax. They’re also welcome on the furniture and can sleep in bed if that’s what they’re used to. I truly see dogs as family members, not pets. I treat them the way I would treat my own child — with patience, affection, protection, and lots of care. I love having them near me while I work, and I make sure they feel safe, included, and deeply loved every moment they’re here. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home, so I’m around and available throughout the day. That means your pet gets more attention, regular potty breaks, and consistent companionship—not just a quick visit. On a typical day, I can plan morning, midday, and evening walks/potty breaks, plus playtime and feeding around my work schedule. I keep things structured but flexible, so I can match your pet’s routine (especially helpful for puppies, seniors, or pets that need extra check-ins). Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is always the same: safety, routine, and a calm environment. I’m detail-oriented, I follow your instructions closely, and I keep you updated so you feel confident the whole time. In your home (drop-ins / house sitting): I stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I do safety checks (doors/gates secured, leashes/harnesses fitted correctly, no access to unsafe items). I keep the space tidy and stress low—especially for pets who do best in their familiar environment. I send photo/video updates and notes after visits. In my home (boarding / daycare): Calm, supervised environment with plenty of attention since I work from home. Frequent potty breaks, exercise, and structured downtime. I keep pets separated when needed (feeding time, high energy, or if a dog prefers their own space). Only pet-safe areas are accessible—no unsafe foods, small objects, or risky spaces. My safety rules, always: I don’t take dogs off-leash unless it’s a securely fenced area and you’ve approved it. I use positive reinforcement (no harsh methods). I watch for signs of stress or illness and communicate quickly if anything seems off. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and for you to feel totally at ease.

About: Detail-Oriented Pet Sitter 🐾💕 I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and come from a family of devoted dog and cat people! I have a 16 year old Westie-poo🐶💕 She’s sensitive to touch and wasn’t very socialized when she was younger, so I’ve spent her life learning her preferences, respecting her boundaries, and advocating for what helps her feel safe and comfortable. She taught me that every pet has their own personality, communication style, routines, and quirks! I also understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I know firsthand how reassuring it is to receive updates and know that your pet’s individual needs are being respected. I’d love to provide that same peace of mind to other pet parents. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve helped family members care for small- to medium-sized dogs through boarding, walks, playtime, companionship, and everyday care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines and instructions closely so they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home! 🐾 Currently home full-time (when I'm not volunteering at Nevada Humane Society Shelter) and am available to meet you and your pup to schedule drop-ins and walks. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of availability for pet care! 🐶💕 I’m generally available from the morning through the late afternoon on weekdays, as well as Saturdays. My availability can vary slightly from week to week, so feel free to reach out with what you need, I’d love to see if I can make it work! 💌🐾 🏡 I live in a spacious, clean apartment with **no pets of my own**, so your pup gets my full attention! 🐶💕 I have a large enclosed balcony for (supervised) fresh air time 🌤️🐾 and a huge dog park nearby for walks, exercise, and enrichment! 🌳🐕

Our puppy absolutely loves Carson and her drop-ins! 🐶❤️ She gets lots of playtime, attention and potty breaks. We always come home to a happy and tuckered out pup. Carson is reliable, caring, and patient. She took the time to learn our puppy’s routine to keep her training on track! We’re so grateful to have someone we trust completely with our puppy and our home.

Shelly is amazing, really did an Amazing job. She did everything we asked of her and was truly concerned for our animals. We were worried about leaving our 17 yr old senior dog, but she took extra care. She sent pictures of our babies and checked in everyday with updates. This was our first time using a sitter, and it went perfectly.
