“Janet is absolutely wonderful! She always goes above and beyond and exceeds our expectations every time. We truly appreciate the love, care, and attention she gives our dogs. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter! 🐾❤️”
About: My Husband and I have taken care of dogs since we were teenagers, having dogs of our own- we have the experience needed to ensure that your loved one aka furry family member will be safe, taken care of properly, and loved! I’m currently available 24/7- any day of the week! Which gives me plenty of time to give your fur babies all of the love, care, and attention they deserve! I have 2 small pups of my own- they are both crate trained/friendly to other dogs and we live in an apartment complex that has tons of grass areas for potty and or play time! Caring for your pups in your own home is something I can do as well! I just want your pets to feel as comfortable as they can and you too! I’m very big on Safety when it comes to our pets. Safety is my ultimate priority (and giving my all to your pets is a must for me.) I will always keep you updated and ensure your dogs stay happy!
About: Pets have always been a integral part of my life. Maybe not all my own but those close to me as well. I have cared for many senior animals and also some with special needs. I have volunteered at The Best Friends Sanctuary in Utah-the largest shelter in the US. I work on call and set my own schedule, which provides alot of flexibility. Most of my work is at night and Saturdays. Prepared to drop in twice a day if needed. I'm always attuned to potential dangers in the house/yard and keep tabs on their whereabouts. I offer plenty of stimulation, attention, and walks.
“Emily took fantastic care of my cats, and I got great pictures every day of them having a good time playing with their flirt pole. She's so good I've already booked her for another trip.”
“Megan has been very dependable and very sweet with my puppy. I interviewed so many pet sitters before we found Megan and I am so very very grateful. I would absolutely recommend her and have already scheduled future engagements with her as well. Her pricing is very fair and reasonable, and my pup loves her.”
About: Even though I currently do not own any pets, i’ve had many family pets since I was born. I’ve taken care of many dogs, including Maltese-Poodle mixes and Dachshunds. I also adore cats. I’m overall very clean when it comes to pet care and friendly with any pet. I carry good intentions when caring for your pet and advocate for animal welfare. I have a full time job Monday-Friday but am available in the early mornings or evenings for pet care such as walks or visits on weekdays. I am available on the weekends anytime, with at least a day notice for any services. I can handle small and medium dogs well, specifically for caging or fencing. I also am physically active for dog walks and restraints if needed. I will use leashes and any other equipment needed to take care of your pet responsibly.
About: I have dog sat and cat sat for many different families over the years. I also have three dogs back home that I absolutely love and miss while I’m away at college, so getting to spend time with and care for other people’s pets is something I really enjoy! I’m more than happy to stay in your home because I know pets can feel more comfortable being in their own space and sticking to their normal routine. I love taking dogs on walks or even car rides if their owners are comfortable with it. I have experience with animals of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care while their owners are away! I’m currently a college student, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week! I’m available between classes, in the evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around you and your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure each pet stays as close to their normal routine as possible. Im never afraid to give a quick call if I’m unsure about something. I’m comfortable staying in a client’s home, doing drop in visits, taking pets on walks, and giving them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’ll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

“Emily is so reliable and exactly who we needed for my first time away from my 8 month old kitten. Even though it was a last minute request, Emily made time to come over for an initial meet/introduction.”
“Wendy really helped us out on very short notice. We were stuck out of town and I reached out on very short notice and she was able to stop by and feed and care for my kitties. Thank you Wendy!”
About: I have always had a profound connection with animals of all kinds, having grown up surrounded by a diverse array of pets. My experience spans caring for household companions, such as dogs and cats, as well as tending to various small animals. I am skilled in providing regular exercise, ensuring they remain active and healthy, and I take pride in giving baths to keep them clean and comfortable. Additionally, I have experience administering medication when needed, which allows me to ensure that every animal receives the care they deserve. My background in training equips me to teach various commands and behaviors, fostering an environment where animals can thrive both physically and mentally. I approach every pet with love, patience, and dedication, always striving to create a nurturing atmosphere that supports their well-being. My commitment to animal care goes beyond the basics; I am constantly seeking to expand my knowledge and skills to provide the best possible care for every creature in my life. I currently have open availability and am ready to accommodate your pet care needs, including last-minute bookings and emergencies. Whether you require long-term or short-term commitments, I’m here to help. My services are flexible, ranging from daily dog walks to drop-in visits and overnight stays, ensuring that your pet receives the attention and care they deserve.

With me, you can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is in capable and loving hands, no matter the situation.

I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their familiar environment, and I’m dedicated to ensuring their well-being while you’re away. To help you feel more at ease, I’m more than willing to arrange a meet and greet beforehand. This gives us a chance to discuss your pet’s specific needs and preferences, as well as for you to see how I interact with your pet. I believe that open consistent communication and trust are essential, and I’m here to provide a reliable and caring presence for your pets.
About: I’ve been around all sorts of animals my entire life from your typical dogs and cats to rodents, birds, reptiles, and fish! I’m a go to person for my loved ones when they need a pet sitter. I adore and love animals and want to give them the best care. I work full-time in healthcare and have boarding availability on Saturday night and all of Sunday and Monday. I’m available most other days after 6 PM for walks. I live in an apartment and everyone in my complex has to have their dogs on a leash. When a dog is going number two I’m sure to clean up and dispose of the waste properly. I have three cats that have many different toys and scratching post to climb and lounge in and are quite honestly spoiled. My cats are indoor cats and don’t ever go outside.
“Abril was great! She was so good with our dogs taking her time to get to know them and treat them as if they were her own! She even went above and beyond and brought in packages that were delivered into our house.”
About: I've been the go-to call for dog sitting for all my friends and family for the last 10 years. I've done simple checkups/walks as well as lengthy multi-week stays taking care of as many as 4 dogs at a time. I am a full-time worker, but in a quiet time of business so I have fairly flexible hours. I am an early riser so I am available from 7-9am, I have flexibility at my job for a lengthy lunch around 11-1pm, and I'm available virtually every weekday after 5pm during the week as well. I am also available on weekends for visits and boarding! I live in an apartment with a dog park in a great walking neighborhood, so while I can't keep your dogs in a yard, exercise is not a problem and my apartment is very pet friendly. I'm also very open and accommodating if your pet has any specific needs! In your own home, I am very respectful of your space. I’ll never use anything in your home unless necessary and you allow it, and I always clean up any space that I spend time in.
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! 🌳🐕
About: Hi everyone! My name is Kaela, and I’m a recent UNR graduate who works a 9–5. I’ve always been an animal lover and grew up with larger dogs, including Labs, Australian Shepherds, and Border Collies. I also come from a cat-loving family and currently live with an adorable kitty! I’ve been pet sitting since I was a kid and have experience caring for all kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, chickens, pigs, and goats. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very excited for the opportunity to meet your best friend and help make your life a little easier! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I currently work a 9–5, Monday through Friday, but I’m available to care for your pets before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the love, attention, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I do not provide services in my own home, I care for your pets in the comfort and familiarity of their own environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I strive to provide reliable, respectful, and attentive care every time. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they can feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your best friend is in good hands!
“Whitney did a phenomenal job taking care of my cat during an extended vacation. She sent photos and updates and I felt more at ease knowing he was in good care. She’s very sweet, reliable & a great communicator. I’d definitely book her again and recommend her services!”
About: I will care for and love your pets as if they’re my own. And I hope most professional sitters would! I am here to meet yourself and your pets where you are at! And with patience, love and positive reinforcement. I would be willing to care for animals of all types—nothing is off the table. As long as it’s safe! Always open for discussion.😊 I am flexible and happy to assist; I would be honored to be your trusted, communicative, attentive, detail oriented pet caretaker. I also can even do a little light housekeeping, if needed. Everything is always open for discussion. This “gig” makes me happy and gives me fulfillment outside of Real Estate. Which, by the way…I am always here for questions about that too. Pets feel most comfortable in their home. Especially if you’re away. I’m here for you all.🫶🏼 Can’t wait to meet you! A little about me: I am a realtor and love my job! But with being a solo-caretaker of my elderly grandmother, this seems to be flexible. My schedule is mostly incredibly flexible, especially if planned in advance. I’m also great for last minute saves if things fell through with your normal pet sitter! I will meet you and your pet exactly where you are at! Anything that is out of my scope of comfort will be clearly communicated in advance or as needed. I am all about open communication on both sides. I can’t help if you don’t tell me what you need! If I can’t provide it, I certainly usually know someone who could. And that goes for a lot of things. Looking to build trusting relationships with pets and their humans! I am flexible on any changes or needs you and your pets may have. I’ve cared for puppies up to senior pups for long periods of time for clients and happy to share those references upon request. The only thing I can’t provide is a place for your pets in my home but I’m always open to yours which generally seems to be ideal. Just ask.🩷 Which both

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
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.
Rebekkah did an excellent job checking in on our pups while we were out of town. She gave updates every check in and she was even kind enough to come by multiple times before we left to meet the pups to make sure everyone was comfortable before we left. We would definitely book with her again!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sparks choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
