House Sitting Sun Valley

“Amy, did fantastic! We will definitely hire her again to house sit and take care of our elderly dog Alice. She was very accommodating and even helped feed our bird, water the plants, and bring in our mail/packages while we were gone. We are very particular in whom we let watch Alice (shes 13 years old and very spoiled). Amy met every request and particulars for her including giving her medications and special feedings, and the biggest one was not leaving her home alone longer than 4-5 hours at a time. Thank you Amy you did great!”

“Dustin was great with my little pack of 3 and kept me in the loop with pictures, videos, and good communication through the weekend. I have 1 who can be shy and standoffish to new people, and typically will mope in his kennel the whole time, everytime I’m gone. He got zoomies as soon as he met Dustin and not only didn’t stay mopey during Dustin’s time watching them, but actually played with Dustin & seemed to have a great time! I would happily book with him again and recommend to others”

“Porter was very professional from the meet and greet to the second he left. Our house was just as we left it when we returned. He communicated frequently and sent daily dog pics.”

“Michael was great. I appreciated his flexibility and responsiveness. First time Rover user here and I would definitely trust him with my 3 pups in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Carlee- a wife, mom, and animal lover! Our family has a one year old Golden Retriever named Sonny, who keeps us active, entertained, and smiling every day. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. As we all know, they’re not “just pets”, they’re family. My goal is to give your pets the same love, patience, and attention I’d want someone to give Sonny. I currently offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and over night stays in the comfort of your pets own home. Whether they need a good walk, some playtime, a potty break, or simply some company and cuddles, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for! I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely excited to spend time with your pets. I’d love to get to know them, learn their routines and personalities, and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away 🤎🐶🐈 I’m a mom with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and lots of attention throughout the week. I love getting outside for walks and making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, feeding, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family.

“Danika was available lastly minute and I couldn’t be happier. She did an amazing job caring for our pups. She was thorough and caring, gave lots of cuddles, walks, and provided pics. She was great to communicate with and I felt at ease knowing she was there.”

About: I have experience with animals my whole life and even more after doing rover for 2 years now. I treat all animals as if they are my own! I work full time away from home but my bf Riley works from home. I would be the primary caretaker Wednesdays- Saturdays but other days it would be my bf watching the dogs at home until I get home. We are an active family and would love to take your fur babies on adventures with us if that's something you'd like! NOTE: Any daycare request that is over 9 hours will be an extra $5 Pick ups or drop offs after 9PM will be an extra $5 *House sitting price will vary depending on the situation/distance *We only watch pups together that we know will get along and usually no more than a couple at a time. We have a fully fenced yard and a dog door so you're pup could have access to outside all day. We have space for crates if you need your dog to sleep in a crate at night, otherwise they are free to sleep wherever they are comfortable! My cat is an indoor/outdoor cat so she has free roam therefore all dogs must be respectful of cats. She does like to play but not roughly chased. I will take lots of photos of your pup during their stay as well!

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!

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’m a professional behaviorist and trainer with hands-on experience in boarding, daycare, house sitting, walking, and working with dogs facing behavioral challenges such as fear or aggression. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life—I’ve owned a pack of three since I was nine—so I’m very comfortable in busy, energetic households and with dogs of all temperaments. I recently moved to the area and am currently focused on building my clientele, getting to know the community, and offering support wherever it’s needed as I continue to grow my presence here. Many of my friends and clients rely on me for trustworthy care when they’re out of town, or when they need guidance and support with their dogs. I also recently launched my own training business, Simple K-9, where I offer private in-home sessions, outdoor excursions, and more. I’m currently building my client base for my training business, so while I may have private sessions or excursion days scheduled, my availability is fairly flexible and I’m happy to adjust as needed! Unfortunately, I’m unable to host client dogs in my home due to HOA restrictions. However, I have extensive experience handling dogs in a variety of environments, including outdoor settings and in the comfort of their own homes. I drive a Jeep that comfortably accommodates at least two large dogs and one small dog, and safety is always my top priority. I’m committed to ensuring your pet is cared for with attention, patience, and a focus on their well-being. I would never put a dog in a situation that could lead to fear or failure. If we were to encounter any unexpected challenges, I’m fully confident in my ability to manage the situation calmly and professionally, ensuring a positive and safe outcome.

“Gabby was the best house/dog sitter for our 11 year old Foxhound. Our dog has a fear of storms. Gabby understood and took great care of her. She is very detailed and sends lots of pics to reassure us our pet is doing well. We will hire Gabby many more times.”

“We’ve used Megan each time we go out of town and we’re always very impressed with her communication, level of care for our 2 pups, and the tidiness of the house when we return. She is the best!”

About: Your pets will be taken care 24/7, I will walk them, play with them, bathe them, feed them, sleep, and love them like my own I am available 24/7 any day of the week as long as I’m not taking care of my mother or taking care of other pets. I will need to care if your pets in your home. I will feed them , walk them a short distance or miles if they like lwalking, I will bathe them if needed and take care of them if they are sick. No one else will give them the love and attention 24/7.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so caring for dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I especially enjoy working with adult and senior dogs, as well as high-energy dogs who need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I also have experience with puppies and enjoy reinforcing basic training, boundaries, and good manners throughout the day. I love finding ways to keep dogs mentally engaged through things like lick mats, treat puzzles, sniffing games, and simple enrichment activities. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adapting my care to each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m a full-time college student and also work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule because two of my college classes are online. I’m available for pet care around my school and work schedule, and I’m especially comfortable caring for dogs who enjoy having company and attention throughout the day. My in-person classes are Monday and Wednesday from 9:00 AM–2:30 PM, and I work Tuesday and Thursday from 1:00–8:00 PM and Friday from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM. I plan my bookings around these commitments so I can give each pet the time and attention they need. Safety and trust are very important to me. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions, pay attention to each dog’s individual needs, and make sure doors, gates, food, and anything potentially unsafe are properly secured. I’m especially careful with dogs who are anxious, reactive, very energetic, or still working on training. I believe pets do best when they have consistency, patience, and clear boundaries, so I try to maintain their normal routines as much as possible.

About: With 10+ years of experience in veterinary general practice and emergency medicine, I bring a level of experience and preparedness that goes beyond traditional pet sitting. I’m trained in CPR, BLS and ALS and have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide range of personalities, ages and medical needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets, medication routines, pets with ongoing medical needs, post-treatment care, and owners who simply want the reassurance of leaving their animals with someone experienced in recognizing when something isn’t right. Every household is different. My listed rate reflects standard overnight care for pets with typical routines. Care needs, number of pets, medical requirements, extended daytime care and other special circumstances can be discussed during our meet & greet. If additional care is needed, we'll agree on the scope and final Rover booking price before your stay begins. I’ve personally cared for multi-pet households including dogs, cats and exotic pets, and I understand that every animal has its own routine, temperament and comfort level. My goal is to keep your pets’ lives as normal, safe and comfortable as possible while you’re away and give you the peace of mind to actually enjoy your trip. I work in veterinary medicine Monday–Wednesday and Friday, so on those days I am typically away during normal working hours and return in the evening. I’m available for overnight care, morning and evening routines, and additional care depending on the needs of each pet. My partner may also assist with daytime check-ins when arranged in advance. We believe strongly in transparency and safety, so anyone assisting with Rover care will be properly added to the account and background checked through Rover. During our meet & greet, we’ll review your pet’s normal routine and how long they are comfortable being alone to make sure the arrangement is a good fit before booking. Your pet’s safety and routine come first. With more than 10 years of veterinary general practice and emergency experience, I’m comfortable caring for healthy pets as well as seniors, pets requiring medications, and animals with more complex care routines. Before your first stay, I like to learn your pet’s feeding schedule, medications, normal behavior, exercise routine, veterinarian information, emergency contacts, household rules and any medical or behavioral concerns. Knowing what is normal for your pet makes it much easier to recognize when something has changed. In your home, I’m respectful of both your pets and your space. Doors, gates, medications, food, walks and household instructions are handled carefully, and you’ll receive regular updates and photos so you know how things are going while you’re away.

“Colin was great! I had a family emergency and needed someone fast. He responded quickly to my initial contact. My dog immediately loved him. During the week day, he was able to check in on Cali at least once. He texted me pictures, updates and any concerns. I highly recommend him.”

About: Hi, I’m Aly. I am a Reno local and graduated with a degree in Wildlife Ecology from UNR in 2020, so my passion is animals. I have been pet sitting on the side for about 5 years and have experience with small dogs, big dogs, bunnies, fish, and horses. I am able to provide any oral medication needed, feeding, walks, playtime, and whatever else your pet requires to be comfortable. No job is too big or too small! This is my full time/year-round job and my hope is that I can help people live the flexible lives they want/need with the comfort of knowing their home and pets are safe and being taken care of. Pet care is my full-time and year-round job. I am available 7 days a week and also on holidays. I accept same day bookings because I know life happens and I understand the additional stress of finding pet care last-minute. My hope is to alleviate that stress and provide reliable care for your pet. When caring for your pet in your home, I try to keep the pets schedule consistent with their normal routine. That includes feedings, medication, bathroom breaks, and sleep schedules. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new, so you can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos of your pet while you’re away.

“Cat M. did an excellent job with my dog, Maggie. Cat walked Maggie twice a day and she even bathed her after Maggie had rolled in the dirt. My house was in the same condition as when I left it, which was greatly appreciated. Cat even spent her own time with me after I returned to teach me some tricks to use when taking Maggie for a walk, as Maggie is a puller and she is reactive to other dogs. Cat has been the best pet sitter through Rover that I’ve had in the past and I will definitely book with her again.”

“Very comforting to know Micki was at the house letting Rowdy on her bed at night. We were gone 10 days and just knowing Rowdy was in her own environment being pampered was a blessing.”

About: I have owned dogs all of my life and have cared for and taught them all the basic pet commands. I have also worked at a doggy daycare for multiple months and have been a pet parent favorite Canine Coach I’m currently a college student that has class Monday through Friday mostly in the morning with evening classes on Friday. I am available all weekends for home/pet sitting. I am able to do overnight stays on weekends as long as I can go to class in the morning. In my own home I have a Dalmatian where I take him out hourly with 2 walks and if my schedule permits a car ride to the dog park. I always check my dogs water bowls and feed him two times a day with proper spacing of eating and exercise to ensure no bloating or stomach issues. I have also taught him to use the correct restroom spot in the backyard

“Jaden was such a joy to work with. From our first meeting, until the end, They were super responsive and respectful of our house. Took great care of the dogs and made sure to give us updates each day! We can’t thank you enough and look forward to having you stay in the future! Thank you!!!”
