“Gina and Eric are so caring and thoughtful! They took wonderful care of my very small older Chihuahua when we left town on a trip. They sent pictures everyday and I could tell he was very happy during the stay. I will definitely call on them again next time we need a pet sitter!”

“Absolutely could not have been any happier w/ the wonder interactions and treatment that my boy received while w/ this beautiful couple! Can not wait for more time spent together”

“Leaving your dogs is never easy, but Christine made it seamless for us and joyful for Willow and Jones. She treated them like her own, created a warm space, and shared the sweetest updates. We came home to relaxed, happy pups, which says everything.”

“Melissa took great care of our two active boxers for 10 days. She sent daily pictures showing that they were having a great time playing in her yard. Will definitely ask her to watch our puppies for future vacations!”

“Megan is a great dog sitter. Our dog loves being there and is always excited to go. She is very caring and we have full confidence in her to handle our Weim. I recommend Megan to anyone needing a sitter”

“This is the third time Trulie has cared for my little chihuahua, Pearl, and each experience has been fantastic. She is always communicative and great about sending photo updates! Her home seems to have a relaxed atmosphere and her own dogs are super sweet, too! 10/10”

“Vanya and Sean were so wonderful! They have a great house with a fenced in back yard that my dog loved. Vanya sent texts and picture updates. We would absolutely leave our dog with them again!”

“Kathryn's home is ideal for a dog. Fenced yard front and back and doggy door for their pleasure. She sent photos and updates and spent time with Beau. I felt he was well cared for.”

“Megan was a delight to work with. She was prompt with replies and kept me updated on how Frankie was doing through text and pictures! I wouldn't hesitate to use her again in the future!”

“Laura was very nice to take my last minute request. She sent me daily updates and photos and assured me my dog was doing well. Lastly, she allowed a very late night pick up when my return flight was delayed. All in all, I'm very happy with her service! I wouldn't hesitate to use her again in the future.”

“I'm always nervous when someone new watches our little girl Riley, but Patty and Randy made us feel at ease as soon as we dropped Riley off. Love that its only small dogs as that is so hard to find (especially near South Lake Tahoe). Great communication and just lovely people all around - highly recommend!”

“Lisa was great! She did slow introductions with our shy/timid puppy. By later that day, they were all playing and she was sending some awesome photos. Truly a relief to find someone as kind and passionate about dogs as anyone would hope to find. Thank you Lisa!”

“Oh my gosh! Susan’s home was the BEST for my two puppies. They were so well loved, and came home stress free. My first choice whenever I need a sitter for the pups! Thank you, Susan, for giving them a second home while we were away!”

“My pups are the most important thing in my life, and I'm hesitant to let anyone I haven't known for years watch them. Wendy and her husband put me at ease and immediately clicked with Mosby. He can be wary of new places or dogs, but within a day he looked happier there than he was with his usual back. I received plenty of updates and had zero worries while my special little guy was in her care.”

“Faith was able to care for our dog overnight and she seemed to be happy with the pictures we saw while gone and upon pick up the next day. This was her first overnight stay without family caring for her.”


“Mari stayed at Ron's house for 2 weeks while we were abroad - the worst part of vacation is leaving your dog behind, but Ron sent us daily photo and videos of Mari playing with Lexi and getting a lot of TLC. She genuinely seemed happy and comfortable. We enjoyed these updates so much and it helped put our minds at ease. Again, we highly recommend Ron to watch your doggo kiddo! Thanks Ron & Lexi!”

“Roseana is super easygoing and reliable. Her laidback nature made the whole process smooth, and my old l doggie was happy and relaxed. Would definitely book again!”

“Ivy took great care of our boy! She sent us pictures and messages about how he was doing. He appeared happy and healthy upon pick up. Ivy has a big back yard that worked well with our energetic and active Labrador. I would highly recommend Ivy as a trusted pet sitter!”

“Abby did a wonderful job caring for our two kitties, one a senior with some special needs. She was good at communicating, and had great attention to detail. Upon our return, everything looks great and both kitties are happy and healthy. We would definitely use Abby again.”

“Rachel as always did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures to update me. I would highly recommend her and Dylan to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Thank you once again Gina for taking such good care of my boy kitties!! That was a long time for us to be gone and you did all the things I asked and helped them not feel so lonely. Your the best!”

“Zara took wonderful care of our cat, Emmy, when we left town on short notice to care for a sick relative. For three weeks Zara came by our house reliably each day to scoop cat litter, refill food and water, and pet / play with Emmy, giving lots of snuggles, and she even brought in packages from our front porch. We really appreciated the care and attention Zara brought to her role, including sending us pictures and videos of Emmy daily. It was very reassuring to know that our cat (and our home) were well cared for during our absence, especially during a stressful time in our lives. We would 100% hire Zara again.”


“Melody is a fantastic cat sitter. My skittish male cat warmed right up to her. Melody stayed with him for two days. Seeing the pictures of my happy cat reinforced my confidence in Melody. Melody is punctual and respectful of both the client’s time and space. I highly recommend her.”

About: My best friends in life have been my beloved pets. I've had the privilege of being alongside several amazing dogs their entire lives. I am also a master of kitty cats! Our home has been the domain of several royal creatures throughout the years. I can help provide for your pets and offer them the attention and reliability they need when you're away. Conveniently centered in Carson City, I am available during very flexible hours and I have reliable transportation. Let's meet to see how I can help you and your animals. I am a semi retired artist, so my schedule is quite open. All of my senior animals have crossed the rainbow bridge now and I have love to give! I give animals a feeling of safety and comfort with my warm and protective presence. I am diligent in providing the correct care for a pet with their nutrition and exercise. I will follow your instructions precisely while offering an enjoyable and enriching experience!

About: I have been a caring, responsible cat owner for over 15 years and understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. I enjoy spending quality time with cats (if they choose to interact) while ensuring they always have fresh water, meals according to your instructions, and clean litter boxes. Recently, I cared for my mother-in-law’s 10 cats while she recovered from surgery. I followed her detailed care instructions with precision, ensuring each cat received the individual attention and care they needed. Your cat’s health, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. I will treat your home with respect, pay close attention to your cat’s daily needs, and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Cleo was such a big help for me on a vacation trip that went all sorts of wonky. She was able to step in last minute when our family friend dropped out of house/cat sitting for us while we were away. Then our travels got wrapped up in the mass Southwest Airlines cancellations and Cleo was able to work with us on that as well! (we ended up leaving 2 days later than expected and coming back a day later than anticipated). Cleo is quick to respond to messages and the pictures and updates she sent of our cats kept me at ease that they were being cared for. Also the pictures in general were just super funny sometimes and I really loved that. Cleo was my first experience using Rover and I was super nervous at first to be giving a stranger access to my home but she is professional, great to work with, and I would book with her again in a heartbeat!”


About: I had a childhood cat, named Midnight for 5 years. I also took care of the other 3 cats in my parent's home. One that was a short-legged cat named Mufasta and gave birth to a litter of kittens that I was also in charge of. There is an old friend who I watched their Maine Coon inside my home for a month. I only had my Ava at the time and had to keep them separated due to the Maine Coon being violent towards other animals and my children. Even though it was rough and suffered deep injuries in my left leg in the end. I stuck through keeping the cat for that entire month because my friend needed time to get a new home situated.

“Fiji had fun playing with the other dogs being cared for by Gina. I would recommend Gina as she provides great care and attention. Took our dog to the dog park to play. Our doggo was tired after the day so you know he had fun playing with other dogs.”

“Our puppies love Danielle! Getting excited as we pull up to her house and then jump out of the car and run to the door and into her place! They are so happy there. Thank you for the peace of mind, Danielle!”


“Wonderful care at Shawna’s Elsie had a good time despite a little separation anxiety Shawna was very attentive which I very much appreciate???”

About: I have taken care of dogs for neighbors, doctors, hospital CEOs, friends and family ever since I was 10. All types of dogs and requests and breeds. I’m at home unless I’m running to the grocery store or doing an extracurricular activity. I can be here for your fur babies when you have to be away. 😻 I have a 6ft fenced yard. I have the ability to separate my yard into 6 different areas at nearly half an acre. I have multiple kennels and some with tops and grooming and bathing equipment. In home day care is heavily screened. Your dog will not have access to the inside of my home, kids, or my pets. Large outdoor area and garage kennels will be fully accessible. Kennels are cleaned with vet rescue which kills parvo. Fresh water in kennels and outside. All are properly sanitized. Health and safety is top priority for everyone. Puppies not fully vaccinated will be in a separate area. Walks, my children will be attending if dogs are child friendly.

“Teeda was awesome! Highly recommend her to watch your puppy or dog. She watched our 3 month old pup last minute and gave us updates throughout the day. We picked our dog up happy as ever. We will be using her again whenever we need someone in Tahoe :)”

“Melissa is amazing! She sent updates throughout the day and provided tons of pictures and videos! By far the best rover we have ever worked with. She really goes above and beyond and provides amazing care!”

“Chelsea takes such good care of our puppy! Rue and Goose are best friends and she always comes home worn out from playing all day! Rue is so excited to stay with Chelsea for the day. Chelsea has been very flexible with our schedule and we appreciate her so much!”

About: I've owned many different kinds of pets since I was a child and helped to take care of them. I've also helped take care of pets for friends and family growing up! This will be my full time job, so you can expect 100% dedication and care to your pets! Their well-being and happiness is my top priority! I can easily crate dogs if needed and ensure a safe enclosure for all your pets. I'll do whatever it takes to make sure pets are protected indoors and outdoors!
“If you are looking for a caring person to look after your beloved pets, look no further! My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Cleo. We were an ongoing client of hers for 9 or 10 months, Mon-Fri. She was flexible, responsible, and treated our dogs like they were her own. Our 2 pups absolutely adore her! Only reason we stopped the routine services with her is due to life changes on our behalf, but she will definitely be our #1 go-to if we ever go out of town!”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! He has quickly become such an important part of Zara’s routine. The second she realizes he’s at the door to pick her up, she completely loses her mind with excitement—it’s the sweetest thing to watch. She absolutely adores him, and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. He is incredibly patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. Knowing Zara is happy, loved, and so excited to spend time with him gives me complete peace of mind. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your dog, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. We feel so lucky to have found him!”

About: We are a husband and wife team who provide pet-sitting and dog-walking services in Carson City. We can administer some medications and assist with some special-needs pets (we have two dogs and four cats, two of which are special needs; a cat and a dog). We are retired and have a fairly flexible schedule. We love our family pets and look forward to helping your family pets feel loved too in your absence. We will visit your cats and dogs in your home to feed, water, play with and comfort them in your absence. Kathleen can come over several times a day according to your needs, but usually no later than 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. Kathleen can give some medications and eyedrops if your cat is somewhat compliant. We'll clean the cat boxes as needed. We can also bring mail in and water plants.
“I highly recommend Carson to anyone looking for a dog walker. She is trustworthy, caring, dependable and genuinely kind, Carson walks my pups weekly, and I always have peace of mind knowing they are in good hands.”


About: My dog‘s name was Kahlúa. I had her for 15 years. I recently had to put her down in June due to old age. I know the first hand experience when it comes to pets, especially senior dogs. My dog went blind with hip mobility and a mild dementia. I made sure to guide her every morning outside for walks and potty. Make sure she was taking her medication and giving her the love that she needed. I would show the same love and kindness and respect to your pets like I did to mine.🫶🏻 I am pretty flexible when it comes to my scheduling. I do live with 2 dogs 3 cats. the home owner is a doctor. Works 10-12Hr shifts 3-4Days a week. I make sure that all the animals are fed. The dogs are taken out to walks while the homeowner is gone. The house live in. The homeowner is a Doctor & Works 10-12Hr shifts 3-4Days a week. but there are times where the Doctor leaves to Convention/Work and I’m left at the house for a week making sure the property and the animals are all taken care of.
About: As an Adventure Specialist, I offer your pet much more than standard neighborhood walks; I provide enrichment hikes and structured play designed to satisfy both their mind and body. I am highly proficient in reading dog body language to ensure safety in new environments and adapt the pacing and duration of our adventures to suit your pet's specific needs. For shy or anxious friends, I bring a reliable calm energy that fosters a quick, loving, and trusting bond. You can always depend on my professional commitment, which includes strict punctuality and adherence to all routines, expert handling of customized care (such as medication or specific diets), and preparedness with basic pet first aid. Most importantly, I guarantee your peace of mind through prompt, detailed communication, including photo and text updates of all our happy adventures! Pet care isn't just a part of my schedule; it is my schedule. As a full-time sitter, my days are structured around the needs of my animals under my care. This means there are no conflicting work meetings or commutes, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's schedule. I dedicate morning, midday, and evening blocks specifically to walks, feedings, and play sessions, with plenty of time in between for communication and customized care. When choosing House Sitting, your pet receives my full commitment to deliver Epic Adventures and Warm Hugs right in their familiar environment, which I think is the best choice for anxious or multi-pet homes. As your pet sitter, I like to get a detailed overview of your pets' exact routine (meals, beds, schedule) so I can minimize stress and ensure maximum comfort. Our days are filled with Heartfelt Hikes on familiar trails, keeping our adventures safe and enriching, and all potty breaks are timely and consistent. Beyond premium pet care, you gain added home security and peace of mind, as I handle basic home needs like mail and plant care with the same professional attention.
About: I have always grown up with pets (dogs, cats, birds, fish…even a reptile or two!) I adopted my pup, Hurley, nearly 15 years ago and it has been one of my joys to have her in my life. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, helping you practice any training you might be working on with your pooch, dispensing medications and other care needs, as well as keeping your furry friend safe if they have any anxieties or other difficult behaviors. While I am not a trainer, I have kept up regular formal, positive reinforcement training with my dog and we’ve also taken lots of fun classes like agility and nose training—meaning I know lots of fun games to keep your pup engaged during my visit. I also have experience caring for ducks and chickens, small reptiles and birds. I am a freelance consultant so my days tend to be pretty flexible. I am generally available throughout the day to care for your pooch. I am an attentive care-giver. I will follow all instructions, ensure your dog is safe in its environment—whether we are walking or playing. I have experience with dogs with medical or other special needs and will always ask about your preferences for care.
“Carrie is awesome. When I sent her a message, she responded back super fast and is great about communicating when she can or cannot walk my dog. She is always punctual and has a wonderful personality. 😊”

“Zara took care of an extra dog (I was hosting a friend's dog together with mine), gave both dogs the exercise, attention and affection they needed, followed my instructions exactly, and was a pleasure to work with. 5 stars!”


About: Teacher with a 7 year old puppy (she will always be my baby) I grew up with animals (dogs, cats, goats, chickens, geese, etc) so I have always had a love and caring nature for all animals. I had 8 dogs growing up and often dog sat instead of baby sit like most girls did as teenagers. Annie is my pup. She is my first dog on my own and she is my baby girl. She goes with me everywhere. She is wonderful dog with kids and with other animals. She just wants to be everyone’s friend! Currently, I work at a school 7-3:45. Free during the evening, weekends and all school breaks. Currently, I am working for the school district. 7-4. I am happy to support you and to love and play with your pup as needed. I will follow your directions to a T. I will keep your fur baby protected, loved and happy. I can come alone or bring my Annie as a fur companion for visits. Annie will be with me for house sitting.
