Dog Walking Southwest

“Bob is amazing, and always very thoughtful. He takes great care of my fur-baby while also updated me whenever he can.”

“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.

“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!

About: Grew up having a dog (or 2 at times…as well as bunnies…and some other reptiles!). I currently live in an accommodation where I am not able to have a pet and I have become to miss animals more and more! There is no such thing as a bad animal, only a poorly trained one, and I treat them all with love and care. I’m available every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day (and night)! My schedule can be as free as needed on those days and I am open to spending lots of time with your pets to make sure they get the best care possible!

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.

Please let me know of any special commands your dog has, and I’ll be sure to try and work on them with them!

About: Hi, I'm Hannah! I'm a Reno local, lifelong dog lover, caretaker, and proud dog mom to a 10-year-old Mini Dachshund and a 4-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd. Over the past 10+ years, I've cared for dogs for friends, family, and referrals from people who trusted me with their pets. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a neighborhood walk, or an energetic adventure, I treat every dog as if they were my own. People often tell me that dogs gravitate toward my calm, steady presence. At the same time, I love being playful, engaging, and making sure dogs have fun. You'll often find me taking dogs on long neighborhood walks, exploring local trails, or relaxing on the couch for some quality cuddle time after a good outing. I believe every dog learns best through positive experiences and small wins. Whether your dog is shy, anxious, reactive, energetic, young, or senior, I focus on building trust, creating a positive environment, and helping them feel safe and confident. A little about me: I work remotely as a Relationship Coach and Transaction Support Coordinator, which gives me flexibility during the day and allows me to provide dependable care and attention. I'm available during business hours as well as weekends, making it easy to fit walks and drop-in visits into your dog's routine. Joining Rover is a natural fit because it combines two things I genuinely enjoy: caring for others and getting outside for more walks. Caretaking has always been important to me. I spent years working as a nanny, and I bring that same level of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness to every animal I care for. I'm comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, administering medication, and adapting to your dog's unique needs and routine. After each walk or visit, I'll send photos, videos, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs, I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I work remotely and part-time. Pet care is the perfect compliment to my flexible work schedule. I sit at the computer for most of the day and would love nothing more than an excuse to get more steps in. I'm a firm believer that your dog, your rules. Every dog has their own routine, boundaries, and needs, and I take those seriously. Whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, reinforcing training, administering medication, or accommodating behavioral or health concerns, I'll follow your instructions carefully. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and keep their routine as consistent as possible while you're away.

About: I live local to the area, and my schedule is extremely flexible to fit your needs. I understand that no two animals are the same and I take that very seriously when caring for them. I am currently working during the weekdays, but I am available during the day to take them out on walks/bathroom breaks and I am free evenings/weekends. I currently live in an apartment. Unless the dog is on the smaller side, I would prefer at home visits instead of taking the animals to my place.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 13 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and special care needs. Your pet will always be safe, happy, and cared for with me. I have my own dog as well and would treat your pet like my own!! I currently work on a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and can leave work anytime on weekdays to take care of your pet. I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of walks, playtime, and love while you’re away! I have A dog park right next to my apartment and one friendly dog to keep your pup company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow any routines you provide. We have lots of dog toys and go on lots of walks everyday! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have sat for SO MANY families outside of this app over the years and will send you lots of photos of your pup if you want them!

About: I've have taken care of animals since I was in elementary school, I have taken care of reptiles so I'm not afraid of bugs and I've also taken care of dogs and even during covid I had a family member bring me their dogs for 3 months to take care of them. Currently since I moved to reno and looking for a part time job I have a lot of time to be taking care of dogs currently so I don't mind what time it will be. I have two dogs and they are friendly, and I always look out for them weather that's in my backyard or on a hike since currently in reno there seems to be many snakes out there and I would like to keep them safe, but also want them to have fun while being safe.

“Cat has been great with walking our reactive dog and we look forward having her do an overnight sit in our house soon!”
