About: I've cared for and loved animals throughout my whole life and am passionate about giving the best care for your favorite furry family member! I've worked with a variety of dogs and cats and am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I have lots of space to come walk, play, and care for your pet! Animals seem to be naturally attracted my me and enjoy being around my energy! I have a 6-year-old Australian Sheppard named Aspen who is my furry best friend, and I can't wait to meet yours! I work from home and have a flexible schedule to be able to come and offer drop-in visits, walks, or overnight house sitting! I'm used to going out multiple times a day for walks or to the park with my own dog, and I look forward to spending time with yours as well! When booking please specify if the time for your drop-in or walk is fixed, otherwise I’ll assume it’s flexible! Thank you 😊 I bartend on Thursday/Friday/Saturday nights 4:00-9:00, if I’m supporting with overnight house stays I’ll need to be able to be away from the house during that time!

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: Hello, I'm Devin! I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets, having lived with 5 dogs and 3 cats as well as other animals throughout my life. This has given me a strong understanding of their different needs, behaviors, and personalities. I've also lived with a puppy and understand how hard at times it can be to deal with them, but I also understand how fun and worth it, it is. I've also volunteered at SPCA for a summer camp where I learned how to take care of dogs and cats and be around more animals! Although pets are very important to me I must prioritize my classes, which end at the latest 2:30 pm, but after I can push aside anything else to make any cat or dog happy. I love to make a dog or cat feel happy and comfortable. I will happily play with any pet and go for walks until that dog or cat is tired, or I can just chill on the couch and relax because I know every animal, just like a human, needs some chill time too.

“Kalle did a fantastic job, great communication and punctual. My dog came back exhausted after a good long walk. She was very caring and sweet with my dog.”

Orlando M.

“I highly recommend Diane for dog walking! She was fantastic with Ziggy, and he had an amazing time on both walks. It was wonderful to see how much he enjoyed exploring the neighborhood with her, even though they had just met. We did have a minor hiccup when Ziggy got a little too excited and ran off while she was putting on his leash, but Diane handled it incredibly well. She quickly found him and calmed him down before putting on the leash. After their adventures, Ziggy was all tuckered out! Her patience and skill truly impressed me, and I would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs for the last 10 years. I had 2 French mastiffs and 3 French bulldogs but recently lost 2 of them to old age. I am very well versed in caring for senior dogs (my frenchie passed when he was almost 15 and my French mastiff passed when he was 10). I love taking my dogs on walks, camping, river trips when they love to splash around! I currently work full time for Meals on Wheels but am fortunate enough to have a hybrid schedule. I work into the early afternoons. My weekends are generally free to devote time to caring for your pets and your home. I’m also available to take your fur babies on walks in the afternoon/early evenings. I would prefer caring for your pups in your house, where I feel they are most comfortable. I am very trustworthy and clean and will treat your home with the utmost respect.

“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!”

About: I grew up my whole life with dogs. Nothing is better then receiving their love when you walk through the door. My home even has it's own dog bathroom, dog run & house which is heated and cooled. I'm a volunteer at Nevada Humane Society. Dogs are the best!!! I'm retired but would like to get outdoors more and nothing better then walking/running a furry buddy next to me. I do have a few PRIVATE customers before I became a Rover emp. So I do try and keep my calendar up to date. I have a fenced yard, dog wash bathroom in my home which leads to a dog run and dog house heated and cooled. I have a nice big backyard that can get your dog tired out!
