“Angie did a great job taking care of our dogs. She both dog sat for a couple of days while we were out of town and did drop in visits. Our dogs instantly warmed to her and she clearly cared about making sure they were happy and comfortable!”
“Michael was amazing caring for Chloe and also being respectful of the space. He spent time with Chloe and played, provided food and loads of love. I would definitely get his care again for Chloe.”
About: Hello! My name is Ivana and I have lived and worked with animals all throughout my life. From dogs, cats, hamsters, and even chickens. I currently have a border collie mix named Skylo. We love going to the dog park and grabbing pup cups on the way home. I absolutely love all animals and currently work at a vet clinic. Although I live in an apartment there are three mini doggy parks within my complex, that allow for playtime after work. I have boarded and house sat for my friends fur babies in the past and I look forward to caring for your sweet baby as well! I am off Sunday-Tuesday but live near work so I am able to go home during my lunch break to take my pup and your pup out for a potty break and short walk. :) I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby in good company. I live in an apartment but we get out as much as possible when we can. We love going to Rancho San Rafael dog park and going on walks around Virginia Lake. My apartment complex also offers three mini gated doggie parks for playtime.
“Chase was punctual, professional, and my Bobby absolutely fell in love. Bobby got in his potty breaks, a couple of walks, and lots of snuggles. I would definitely utilize Chase again and we look forward to our next drop-in visits!”
“Natalie did a great job watching my two cats. One of my cats is very timid but he made fast friends with Natalie! I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”
“Devin was awesome. He was available on very short notice (same day) and was also available to extend the drop in visits off short notice as well with no hesitation. He was consistent with notes, concerns and routes daily & took his time to make sure our dog Juno felt comfortable. We were very pleased with Devin and will be sure to book with him again in the future.”
“Sierra was absolutely amazing! Sierra communicated clearly and kept me updated throughout with messages and photos of my cat. It was such a comfort to know my pet was in good hands. I'll definitely be booking Sierra again for future cat-sitting”
About: Apart from my own crazy mini aussie, Hobbs, I have cared for friends and families pets ranging from small shitzus to large yellow labs. My own baby is going on 13 this year meaning I am no stranger to administering medication or following special care instructions. I’m currently going to school at UNR but classes are over at 3pm! Late afternoon, nights, and overnights during the week work great! Weekends I am free virtually all the time. While I don’t currently offer services in my own home, I have my own vehicle large enough for big puppies in case of emergency! Otherwise I will abide by any and all house rules and instructions :)
“First time Rover user here and WOW, was I blown away at Bri’s updates, responsiveness, and most of all the love she gave Gunner during her drop ins while I was out of town. It’s so nice to have peace of mind that my fur baby was taken care of and treated so well while I was away. I enjoyed getting photos and videos of Gunner enjoying his time. Will definitely ask Brianna again!!”
About: Growing up in Texas my family has owned all sorts of dogs including: a poodle, a pit bull, a wolf dog, a black mouth cut, and a pug. I was taught dog care from a licensed wolf handler in Texas. I would frequently pet sit for family and friends. I work hybrid from home and as long as I’m given enough notice I’m happily available to be your dog’s new friend. Your home is yours and your dog’s safe space and I am happy to follow any rules and regulations that you and they follow.
About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine/pet care for about 3 years. I take my role in pet care very seriously, and ensure that each pet is treated like my own. From small cats to large dogs I’m confident and happy to provide love and care to any pet. I currently have fairly open availability everyday. Please feel free to contact me directly to ensure our schedules align and that care needs can be met. I don’t not currently offer care in my home however, when caring for you pet in your home I will treat everything with respect and ensure your pets comfort and safety to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for the past 10 years and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Having dogs and cats of my own has given me a strong understanding of how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets keep their usual routine so they feel at home. I am currently working part time and will be sure to provide my availability, so that together we can be sure your pet is given the best possible care. I will ensure your pet is well cared for while you're away, providing them with plenty of attention and care. They are family afterall.
About: I've grown up with 2 puppers and a few cats with most recently 12 years with my cat and dog. I am looking to give your pets some good outdoor time or just drop in and make sure they're fed and watered if need be! I can give medications if needed as well and have a background in pharmacy. I work per diem with an irregular schedule. I usually have availability on weekdays and/or afternoons. Due to my schedule I do need at least 24 hour notice before any drop ins or walks! I am just finishing up an educational training job going onto a per diem position that will have plenty of weekdays open for drop ins, walks or other play activities. I will not have a space to pet sit in my home however I will be able to travel to care for your pets at your home or wherever and set it up for your pet's preference.

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.
Sherina is amazing! I’ve booked her twice now, and after the first time, I knew my puppy was in great hands. He was happy and well cared for, so I had nothing to worry about during my trip. She was always on schedule and even went out of her way to take him on extra walks. She’ll definitely be my first choice going forward. Thank you, Sherina!
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!
Ezra has been SO good with my Kiya! He goes above and beyond to make sure that she is comfortable, and is very intelligent about how to handle dogs with love and affection. He truly cares for animals and it is important to him that they are treated properly. It seems to be a passion of his to make sure that the pups are cared for in the best possible way for them. Kiya has never really been a puppy who attaches herself to men, but she is so comfortable with Ezra! He is like a puppy whisperer! I highly recommend him!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sparks stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Sparks with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
