“Aaron and his family were amazing with my puppy. It was my first time boarding her at someone’s home and I was a bit worried, but my dog seemed to really enjoy her stay. I was sent photos of her walking and playing with the kids. Aaron was very communicative, timely in his responses, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. I would highly recommend them!”
“Ron is a wonderful person to leave our two elderly dogs with. I was concerned our dogs would not want to come home. He constantly communicated with us which was comforting to us. He has the perfect enclosed yard so our dogs could explore at their own pace. I highly recommend Ron at the risk of his schedule filling up!”
“Louis and June are just amazing! Brie took to them almost immediately! Their home is beautiful with an amazing backyard with plenty of room to run. Their dog Hunter is very friendly and became fast friends with Brie! Highly recommend and would use again in a heartbeat!”
“Ronnie was a great host for my cat for a last minute 2-week stay! He was well taken care of and Ronnie sent me update photos and videos. Thanks so much Ronnie!”
“Theo had an active, delightful day with Danielle. Danielle sent me pictures and text throughout the day to let me know how my boy was doing. Danielle is so kind and really understood the personality of my terrier. Just a wonderful experience all around.”
“Tim was an excellent with Luna. I went on vacation for 12 days and was very responsive when it came to updates and pictures. Luna looked like she had a great time with all of the outdoor adventures Tim took her on. Most definitely a reliable dog sitter.”
“Gina is a true dog lover. She cared for my Olive like she was her own and provided excellent communication from start to finish with texts, photos and videos. Olive may have had a better time at Gina’s than she does at home. Thank you Gina!”
About: I have had dogs in my house since before I was born and have never gone a day with out dogs living at home. I love to take my own two dogs on walks and would love to help out others that don’t have the time or ability to take their own out on walks all the time. I currently have my two dogs, two cats and a little zoo made up of different types of pets. I typically work early mornings and I am off by noon most days so a quick afternoon walk is ideal for me. My services are available almost everyday from noon to five in the afternoon. Since I have so many of my own pets I prefer to pet sit at the clients house. I mainly offer dog walking but for any quick day trip over overnighter I am able to stop by to care for your pet and meet their needs.
“Frisco felt right at home staying with Hallie while we were away for a long weekend in Reno. Hallie was an excellent communicator and kept us updated every day with photos and messages which gave us so much peace of mind. Frisco was well cared for and having a great time playing with other dog friends too. We would absolutely book with Hallie again!”
“Kelly and her husband were great! She sent me updates and pictures regularly, they were very flexible on drop off and pick up and my dog Rocky had a very good time. Thank You!”
“Melanie took great care of my dogs and dropped them off before we arrived! She was lovely to communicate with and my dogs seemed happy and healthy when we got him. Her place on the hill with the fenced in area looked lovely for the dogs. Will definitely use Melanie again!”
“My Cherry is super shy and has some special requirements and Sarah was so accommodating! She treated her as part of the family. Also, she is very quick to respond to all messages :). I definitely recommend having your pup stay with Sarah and will be repeat customer!”
“Tasha was so lovely! This was my first time leaving Rocky due to a last minute family emergency and it was a great success :) we came by for a meet and greet prior to drop off and it felt great to be so confident Rocky would be in great hands. He had so much fun, lots of activities and play time. Tasha was communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. Rocky is not great with recall so Tasha’s husband made a zip line so Rocky could easily explore as much of their property as possible! They really went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you so much will definitely reach out to Tasha again if Rocky needs a sitter in the area!”
“Brittany took such good care of my doggos! This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so happy everything went so smoothly. I felt totally at ease the whole time.”
“Alejandra was so kind and easy to book with when our other sitter fell through right before our wedding. Truly a lifesaver and Petra came home happy and relaxed! It was so great to not worry about our pup during a big day!”
“Viana is so sweet and she treated my girls like her own. She was so communicative with me and sent me photos the whole time! I will definitely be rebooking next time I am away! Thank you so much Viana!”
“Chelsea was a wonderful dog sitter! She communicated a ton and sent so many fun pics. My dog doesn’t get out a lot but her family and adorable pug made it so easy to be away. Highly recommend!”

Willing to do drop ins before/after work if needed. As well as multiple drop ins, walks on my days off. I do have a fur baby of my own now. Her name is Josie, she is a 3 year old black lab.

About: Growing up in Florida, I was always surrounded by different types of animals, which gave me an early appreciation for how different every pet’s personality and needs can be. More recently, I spent last year traveling throughout California as a sitter with TrustedHousesitters, staying in homeowners’ houses and caring for dogs and cats. Through these stays, I’ve gained real, hands-on experience with daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, medications, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I take pride in being calm, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I treat every home and every pet as if they were my own. My goal is always simple: happy, relaxed pets and complete peace of mind for their owners. I have a very flexible daily and weekly schedule. I work remotely, so the pets I care for will always have companionship and a consistent routine.
About: With a lifelong passion for animals, I've immersed myself in their care since the age of 13. From volunteering at shelters and farms to watching over various pets, I've nurtured a deep bond with creatures of all kinds. Whether it's a cat, dog, guinea pig, bearded dragon, or any furry friend, I'm committed to their well-being. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority, as I continually seek to improve my skills and connect with them on a personal level. Expect me to go above and beyond, treating your beloved pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time hours so my availability is flexible. I am available throughout the week and over the weekend as well. Let me know when you would need me and I can see how I can make that work for you. I have one dog and a cat at home. We have a very safe backyard that is surrounded by a fence and we make sure to watch them whenever they go outside. We make sure that when we leave the house that we’re not gone for too long so that our dog can go to the bathroom and that both our dog and cat are comfortable and emotionally secure.
“We have a rambunctious lab puppy that I worried would be too much for my parents while we were out of town. My parents raved about Brianna. She walked our dog everyday for a week and he loved it and she really helped him get some energy out! We would definitely look to book her again.”

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong dog lover and artist currently spending some time in the beautiful Reno/Tahoe area for art research and inspiration. My heart belongs to animals. My beloved Yorkie was my sidekick for 15 wonderful years, and we spent countless days exploring the outdoors together. Because I’m currently traveling and focusing on my art, I have a flexible schedule and a lot of love to give to your fur babies while I'm in town! I treat every pet like family. Whether your dog loves high-energy outdoor adventures, a relaxing stroll, or just quiet cuddle time while I sketch, I happily match their energy and routine. 📸 Stay Connected: You can expect regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My Skills & Services 🐕 Dog Walking & Outdoor Play: Ready to explore local trails or just stroll around the block. 💖 Endless Love & Attention: Lots of snuggles, positive reinforcement, and companionship. 🍲 Feeding & Meal Prep: Experienced with specific dietary instructions and schedules. 💊 Medication Support: Comfortable maintaining moderate medication schedules. 🐈 Cat Friendly: Meow spoken here, too! I're happy to hang out with your feline friends. Your pet will always be treated with the utmost kindness, patience, and the same deep love I gave my own dog for 15 years. I can't wait to meet them! I am a self-employed artist and director of a small nonprofit, which gives me an incredibly flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Much of my work involves painting landscapes—capturing the beautiful mountains, lakes, and high-desert light of the Reno/Tahoe area. Because my art keeps me outdoors, I am always ready to take dogs along for fresh-air strolls, sniffing adventures, and outdoor playtime. When I am working from my laptop or sketching, pets in my care receive relaxed companionship, lots of attention, and plenty of snuggles. My flexible routine allows me to easily accommodate weekday or weekend care, house sitting, and extended stays. Your pet will seamlessly become a part of my creative, peaceful day! Since I am currently in the Reno/Tahoe area for art research, I'll mainly be focusing on House Sitting (in the client's home), Dog Walking, or Drop-In Visits rather than hosting pets at my residence (however, some exceptions can be made). Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my absolute priorities. Whether I am house-sitting in your home or visiting for walks, I treat your home with the utmost respect and your pet like family. Safety Outdoors: Because the Reno/Tahoe area has beautiful wildlife (like deer, coyotes, and bears), I keep all dogs securely on-leash during our walks unless we are in a designated, securely fenced dog park and you have explicitly approved off-leash time. I am also highly mindful of the pavement temperature and hydration during warm high-desert days. A Familiar, Relaxing Atmosphere: Inside your home, I strive to keep your pet’s environment calm, positive, and consistent. I love providing relaxed companionship—whether I'm sketching nearby or enjoying quiet cuddle time. Following Their Routine: I strictly follow your pet's established routine, including precise feeding schedules, favorite walking routes, and any necessary medication tracking. If your pet uses a crate, playpen, or has specific house rules, I will mirror them exactly. You can rest easy knowing your home is secure, and your fur baby is receiving dedicated, loving, and highly attentive care while you're away!
About: My girlfriend Leah and I have had a dog in our life every year until now. Leah grew up with cats and her family dog named Murphy who she loved. We are passionate about walking pups. I feel every dog should get at least an hour of activity outside everyday. Also I am a strong person who is able to keep your animal safe from any dangerous situation that may be happening near by. With me you will know your pet is safe because I make the pets safety my highest priority. We are the best deal on the app because you get two people for the price of one You get two for one. I work remotely full time. This means I work 6am - 2:30pm Monday- Friday. But since I am fully remote if you were in need of a house sitter I would be able to take the dog out during working hours because my job is pretty laid back. The weekends I am 100% free. In addition to this I have my GF Leah, who is a full time student who is always available to help out. This is the first year of my life where I do not have a dog living with me. But when I did I would be checking on the dog all the time. Making sure they have water and I let them out to go to the bathroom or take them on short walks during the day. After work is when i will usually take my pet on an hour walk or go to a park or some where to play. In addition to me there is my girlfriend Leah who is a full time remote student right now. She is always available to help out and is super responsible and helpful.

I was sent photos of her walking and playing with the kids. Aaron was very communicative, timely in his responses, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. I would highly recommend them!”
“Louis and June are just amazing! Brie took to them almost immediately! Their home is beautiful with an amazing backyard with plenty of room to run. Their dog Hunter is very friendly and became fast friends with Brie! Highly recommend and would use again in a heartbeat!”

Hallie was an excellent communicator and kept us updated every day with photos and messages which gave us so much peace of mind. Frisco was well cared for and having a great time playing with other dog friends too. We would absolutely book with Hallie again!”
“Kelly and her husband were great! She sent me updates and pictures regularly, they were very flexible on drop off and pick up and my dog Rocky had a very good time. Thank You!”
“Melanie took great care of my dogs and dropped them off before we arrived! She was lovely to communicate with and my dogs seemed happy and healthy when we got him. Her place on the hill with the fenced in area looked lovely for the dogs. Will definitely use Melanie again!”
“My Cherry is super shy and has some special requirements and Sarah was so accommodating! She treated her as part of the family. Also, she is very quick to respond to all messages :). I definitely recommend having your pup stay with Sarah and will be repeat customer!”
“Tasha was so lovely! This was my first time leaving Rocky due to a last minute family emergency and it was a great success :) we came by for a meet and greet prior to drop off and it felt great to be so confident Rocky would be in great hands. He had so much fun, lots of activities and play time. Tasha was communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. Rocky is not great with recall so Tasha’s husband made a zip line so Rocky could easily explore as much of their property as possible! They really went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you so much will definitely reach out to Tasha again if Rocky needs a sitter in the area!”
“Brittany took such good care of my doggos! This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so happy everything went so smoothly. I felt totally at ease the whole time.”

“This was our 2nd boarding session with Kristen and she is a wonderful sitter! She always provides regular photos and updates and is an excellent & timely communicator. Highly recommend!”
“Cameron and Amanda were great. We could see Watson was comfortable and had some fun. He had a chance to play with other dogs during his stay. We would definitely board Watson with them again.”
About: I have over five years of hands on experience caring for pets of all kinds, and I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Whether it’s daily drop in visits, walks, or extended stays, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I’m experienced with different temperaments and needs, and I always follow instructions carefully while also paying close attention to each pet’s unique personality. Your pet’s well being is my top priority, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. pet care fits in my routine fine considering I take care of my own pets. I let them use there drive. I work them out. I teach them. I raise them. Well I’d love to give other people an opportunity to put their pets in a good environment. for a few days or a few hours. I care for pets well I research study them. I look at behaviors and I manage it. Well if they’re uncomfortable, I try to understand and put them in a better position
