“Farrah and her family take great care of our little dog. He is 5 lbs, and comes back home without a scratch, unlike when boarding him at other locations. We will continue to use and trust Farrah.”
“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!”
“Ronnie was fantastic. He and his pups were very friendly and sweet to our high energy blue heeler. Edith basically had her own doggie vacation. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves their pets like family.”
“We are recent transplants to Reno so it is always a worry re: finding care for our girl when we are away. Kelly took great care to learn all about Heidi’s care before we booked. Her communication was excellent (she sent photos during the stay and got back to me quickly whenever I checked in). Juneau is obviously a lovely dog and I’m sure Heidi enjoyed having company around. We are so happy to have found a great sitter in our new city”
“From the first moment I made communication with Chelsea through Rover I knew she would be great. I recommend if you want a great experience with Rover. Chelsea is the way to go for a CARING & RELIABLE dog sitter. We explained all of the needs for our senior dog and she provided all the care. My wife and I loved her positive energy and great communication during the whole experience. We will always use Chelsea in the future for our Reno dog sitter. We rate her 5 stars!”
“Aaron and Nicole were flexible, communicative, and based on the photos, my dog seemed to love them! I really appreciate how they walked him on the trails near their home.”
“Ivy was a hit! She provided exceptional communication and sent daily updates with photos, taking the stress off of leaving our pet while out of town. Our cat is initially timid but was completely relaxed and happy, roaming around when we picked her up. Good job - thank you!”
“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!”
“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.”
“My three dogs were well taken care of if not spoiled during their week stay. My blind Chiweenie puppy fell in love with Lauren! The feeling was mutual. You cannot ask for more than that! I would recommend boarding or sitting your dog(s) with Lauren. ❤️❤️❤️”
“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.”
“Sussy was fantastic with my two littles. I was visiting Reno so we didn't have time for meet and greet beforehand. However, we were able to visit a bit at the drop off. Both of my babies slept all the way back home. I will definitely use Sussy again when visiting.”
“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.”
“Trusted them completely with my fur babies. They had some anxiety with being without the family but Shannon and David handled it beautifully and were so gracious. Would definitely use them again!”

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.
“This is the 2nd time sassy has help out with my dogs and she was amazing. She updated me with how everything was going with them as well and sent pictures. I’ll definitely be using her again.”
About: I've housesat multiple different cats across the years, from my parents' orange cat, to roommates' cats. I've administered shots for cats in the past, and have been around enough personalities to know when to tend to them, and when to give them space.
“Janet accepted this job of checking in on my son’s cats while he was in the hospital and we have been so grateful to her! Her communication and willingness to accommodate us was fantastic. If you are looking for someone to care for your pet, consider Janet! She sent photos from every visit and even helped get more food and litter when we ran out. I live across the country and she was a Godsend!!!”
About: I have owned and cared for all types of animals my whole life. 90lb malamute to 7lb chihuahua. Cats, chickens, birds, horses.. i am a friend to all creatures and I would love to care for your pet while you are busy. I love long walks and am not afraid of the weather unless it effects the animal. I currently have an open schedule and am looking forward to making some cash while getting used to the area and waiting for my winter job to start. Safety is my first priority. I prefer harness while walking dogs and try to find routes away from any main or busy roads. I am prepared with dog bags and water for all pups. I enjoy long walks to a patk like area when possible.

“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.”
“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!”
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.
About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years where I got to groom, feed and watch over dogs who would get dropped off for boarding or day care. I was also responsible for administering medication.

“Excellent care! Tum was very flexible in adjusting the request I placed wrong and the dogs stayed with him overnight. Came back tired and very happy! Tim shared plenty of videos and photos along the way, I had no doubts they were in the best hands ever. Thank you so much, Tim, hoping to see you again soon.”

“Samantha is great! Good communication, replies quickly, and is very friendly. My one year old dog is shy at first but Samantha worked hard to help her feel comfortable. The second time I dropped my dog off, she was so excited to go in to see Samantha. I felt comfortable knowing that my dog was well taken care of and enjoying her time at Samantha's house.”
“We were in Reno and very nervous about leaving our puppy for the day with a sitter. Shawna was incredibly nice and made us feel very welcome and at ease. Our puppy had a fantastic time playing and hanging out with her and slept very well that night. We received pictures throughout the day of updates which was so thoughtful. We will definitely be seeing Shawna when we need a sitter again! We recommend her 100%!! Thank you Shawna!”
“Cameron & Amanda were able to accommodate my long work hours and provided my pup with an safe and fun day away from home! Both Cameron & Amanda’s communication was great for drop off and pick up!”
“Nikki was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Enero and Angelina! From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. While we were away, she kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It wasn't just that she was doing her job—it was obvious from the way she interacted with them that she truly cared about their happiness, comfort, and well-being. Both dogs looked relaxed, happy, and well-loved in every update. Nikki went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for, and we could tell they enjoyed their time with her. We highly recommend Nikki to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive pet sitter. We would gladly have her watch Enero and Angelina again!”

About: Hi! I’m Justin, your friendly neighborhood dog whisperer. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, ever since I was a teenager. Whether it’s seniors, puppies, nervous dogs, or the little quirky ones with big personalities, animals naturally gravitate toward me. I truly believe dogs can feel energy, and they always seem to feel safe and understood around me. I’m a full-time remote worker with a calm, grounding home environment, and I treat every pup who stays with me like they’re part of my family. My own dogs, Peaches and Cosmo, are used to having friends over and do great with small dogs who have good manners. I understand dog body language deeply and I know how to create a safe, low-stress environment for every pup. What you can expect with me: • Constant supervision & love • A secure home with a fenced yard • Playtime and enrichment • Separate feeding areas if needed • Safe introductions and lots of patience • Photos, videos, and updates throughout the day • A sitter who genuinely loves dogs and has done this all his life I’m experienced with: ✔ small/delicate dogs ✔ anxious dogs ✔ senior dogs ✔ special diets ✔ meds (non-injection) ✔ rescue pups ✔ multi-dog households If you want someone who will give your dog the same love, attention, and protection they get at home, I’m your person. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and comfort always come first, and I promise to treat them like my own. I can’t wait to meet your pup! 🐶💛 Pet care is built into my lifestyle. I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give the dogs consistent attention, supervision, and love throughout the entire day. 🕒 A Typical Day Looks Like This: • Morning: I start the day with potty breaks and a relaxing neighborhood walk to help everyone get their energy out. Dogs get breakfast afterward in separate feeding areas to keep mealtimes peaceful. • Midday: I’m home working, so dogs can nap near me, chew on enrichment toys, or enjoy supervised backyard breaks. I check in with them frequently and give cuddles or playtime based on their needs. • Afternoon: Another walk or potty break, depending on your dog’s routine. I make sure everyone gets movement, attention, and reassurance throughout the day. • Evening: Dinner time (again fed separately), followed by more relaxation, play, or quiet cuddles on the couch. I’m very sensitive to each dog’s preferences — some want to play, some want to chill. 🏠 My Home Is Calm, Safe, and Always Supervised Because I’m home all day, your pup is never left alone for long periods, and I can monitor how well they’re adjusting. I only accept small dogs, which keeps the energy manageable for everyone — including my two dogs, Peaches and Cosmo. When your dog stays with me, they become part of my little family. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I take their comfort, safety, and happiness seriously. Here’s exactly what you can expect when your pup stays in my home: 🏠 A Calm, Safe Home Environment My home is clean, peaceful, and set up specifically for dogs. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and able to give your pup lots of attention, structure, and supervision. I only host small dogs, which keeps the energy gentle and reduces stress during introductions. 🐶 Thoughtful, Stress-Free Introductions I introduce your dog to my two small dogs, Peaches and Cosmo, slowly and safely, usually outdoors first. I’m skilled in reading dog body language, so I ensure everyone feels comfortable before letting them interact freely inside.
“My dog was happy when I picked him up. He was well fed and taken care of. I can tell when my dog has a good time at a sitters home and my dog definitely had a good time. I will rebook again :)”

About: Hi there! I’m a 29 year old living in Reno for the past 10 years. I’m currently located in Northwest Reno area. I'm a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for all pets big or small! Since I was little I have been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. During college I worked at a boarding/training facility, volunteered at the Humane Society, and still love taking care of pets. I consider myself a patient, reliable, attentive individual who prioritizes open and honest communication so you will always be in the loop. My dream is to have at least four dogs on property and to open a dog rescue to save, foster, and find loving homes for dogs in need. In the meantime I’m looking to help people with their pet care needs. Whether it’s a long walk, play session, a cuddle break, or sticking to specific routines I’m here to provide reliable, compassionate care and peace of mind. I work from home full time! My work schedule is Tuesday-Friday 9-6pm. For DAYCARE: Monday - Friday with occasional weekend availability. FOR WALKING: I’m always trying to get more steps in! Saturday, Sunday, Monday are my most open days. Also open to midweek walks if you live nearby. I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with lots of walking paths to mix up our daily walks. I also live about a 12 minute walk or 2 minute drive away from San Rafael Dog Park if your dog likes to run off leash, play ball, and meet new friends we can work that into the schedule. Reach out with any questions you have and I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work from home & have lots of flexibility in my schedule. I’m looking to go on more walks throughout the day and meet some new furry friends to hang out with. Please reach out with any questions you may have for me! I have a fenced backyard with grass for basking in the sun, playing fetch, and lots of potty breaks. I also live near a big dog park if your dog loves meeting new friends.
“I’m so pleased I connected with Khine. I have two large dogs, one is high energy boy & one that’s less ambitious, as she has a few more years on her. When we met with Khine, both my dogs liked her and were almost immediately comfortable with her. She is reliable, punctual and is confident handling my dogs. (Handling 2 large dogs is not a small task) I also really appreciate the updates and photos she sends me after each visit. I believe Khine genuinely cares about my dogs and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“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: I've had animals my whole life but started professionally working with them about 5 years ago. My own animals are special needs, so I know what it's like to need someone to care for them. I love animals and hope to get to know yours! I'm available on Saturday, Sunday, Monday afternoon/evening and the evening on Friday! Other days I work full time at an animal clinic and go to school, so weekends are what I can do for you! I am very good at reading animal behavior and knowing how to get dogs and cats to trust (or at least tolerate) me. I also am familiar with a lot of different medicines and how important it is to administer them carefully, as I had a pet with chronic illnesses and work with them daily. I want to use my knowledge from working at the clinic to help you and your pets.
About: With 3 years of pet-sitting experience, I provide reliable, attentive, and loving care tailored to each pet’s personality and routine.

I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and longer stays, and I can easily adjust my routine to fit each pet’s needs and schedule. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a great fit for my day-to-day routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely, while giving each pet plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.
“Sierra is a wonderful addition to our Duke boy’s life. He enjoys their time together & we have peace of mind while away from home. I especially love the visit reports at the end of her visits. I highly recommend her.”
About: I started taking care of dogs in September of 2025 at dog daycares. It’s not long, but I’ve learned so much in 6 months and I’m truly happy to be able to take care of dogs. I’m able to read body language if dogs are scared, uncomfortable, or agitated, I’ll be able to help. I’ve administered medications to dogs that need, even if the dog is being difficult. It is my duty to make sure that each dog is attended to and cared for. My schedule will allow me to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I am available at any time when needed to do walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I make sure every pet receives regular exercise, playtime, companionship, and a consistent routine while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

About: I have taken care of dogs, pretty much my whole life, and have experience with all sorts of dogs. From golden retrievers to dobermans, pit bulls, chihuahuas, and German shepherds, I have experience with all kinds of temperaments and dogs and am able to handle and care for all of them in the ways they need. I volunteer at the Nevada Humane Society and have completed a Fear Free Certification. I have trained all of the dogs I have taken care of and am very dedicated to making sure that they are well taken care of. When they are your best friend, they deserve the best. I will make sure that your dog gets plenty of love and care, and will be played with, and walked around to give them the socialization and exercise they need and want. I currently work full time, but have weekends off, and can sometimes do evenings, and love to spend my free time with pets. I fit pet care into my weekly routine by caring for a german shepherd weekly. I provide care for the pets by taking them on walks, and following any other normal care that the pet would typically require. I have 2 five year old german shepherds, as well as a 13 year old cat, so I am well equipped in dealing with multiple pets as well.
About: Hi, I go by Ashton. I began working with dogs in a professional setting in 2011 in Anchorage Alaska. I received my Certificate to be a Professional Dog Trainer through Animal Behavior College and immediately began working along side seasoned obedience, behavior modification and agility trainers. After some time I was able to begin mentoring new trainers in basic obedience, teaching them how to run puppy and adult basic obedience group classes. Though my profession career began in 2011, my passion for working with dogs truly started many years before that, here in Reno,NV, when I adopted a Chow Chow named Leo. I was just a teenager and Leo had come with several severe behavioral issues. He was both human and dog aggressive, destructive, not house broken, had sever separation anxiety, ran aware regularly and was leash reactive. Despite being uneducated in dog behavior at the time, I began to do my own research and was dedicated to teaching Leo how to feel safe, happy and confident so that he would overcome his many barriers. We walked every day and I tirelessly worked toward socializing him. When I moved to Alaska, I took Leo with me, he became my practice dog and we learned dog behavior together! In no time, he was attending puppy class with me, rolling on the floor letting puppies jump all over him. He was going on walks with other leash reactive dogs, HE was the calm presence that helped other dogs see that it was all okay. Leo learned to love people and other animals, he learn to trust and because of him and everything he overcame, my heart was set on making that difference in as many lives as I possibly could. In 2024, as a single parent, I made the difficult choice to "retire" from dog training to focus on feeding other passions and traveling with my daughter. During that time I have continued to have a lovely time with my own dogs and the dogs of close family members, but I am starting to feel the ache of wanting to help again. I have decided to offer limited services related to dog walking, drop in visits, play dates, nail trims and limited bathing/grooming. (Oh, did I mention I used to be a dog foster parent, groomer and kennel tech alongside my training?) I have outline my services in more detail below; however, feel free to reach out with any questions if you don't see what you are looking for! I look forward to hearing from you :) I am offering evening walks Monday - Friday, drop in visits and extended walks on Saturdays and Sundays. Dog Daycare is available for limited hours on Sundays and will be accepted on a case by case basis. Loose leash walking training can be provided in conjunction with walks at an additional cost. Please message for details. All dogs are required to be collared with identification for walks. I will request a microchip number if they have been chipped in the event of an emergency. For your dogs safety and mine: If your dog is an extreme puller, I may request to be allowed to use tools such as an easy walk harness and sort lead. If I do not have your dogs size, I may request you purchase one.
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs my entire life. From tiny chihuahuas to labs. Every pet is different, and I make sure they are cared for based on their individual needs. Currently freelancing, which allows a flexible schedule during the week to care for your furry ones. Have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. I have kids that love to play with dogs and a cat that is very mellow. At your home, instructions will be followed. Anything from a quick check in, to overnights.

“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.”
“My three dogs were well taken care of if not spoiled during their week stay. My blind Chiweenie puppy fell in love with Lauren! The feeling was mutual. You cannot ask for more than that! I would recommend boarding or sitting your dog(s) with Lauren. ❤️❤️❤️”
“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.”
“Trusted them completely with my fur babies. They had some anxiety with being without the family but Shannon and David handled it beautifully and were so gracious. Would definitely use them again!”
“Oh my goodness Christine was amazing! She sent the most majestic photos of Archer. She took him on adventures and walks (even more than I do). She had other dogs and they all got along well. Ill easily be recommending and using Christine again for watching Archer. I can not recommended her enough”
“Susan and her family were incredible! We have never left our boys with anyone who isn't family, but Susan took care of them as if they were. If you are looking for some place for your dogs to get plenty of love and attention while you are away, I absolutely recommend Susan! We have already booked our next stay with her.”
“Max had a fantastic time! Thank you Kathryn for taking such good care of him! We received lots of pictures during his stay, he got to walk and play and get cuddles.”
“Shanna was amazing! She went above and beyond anything we have experienced so far. We were nervous to leave our boys at a local doggie camp due to it potentially feeling like a shelter they once came from. Shanna set up a meet and greet prior to us booking so we knew exactly what to expect. Our boys had a blast with other doggies and Shanna was extremely communicative with frequent updates and photos. She even washed our dog beds and sent our boys away with cute and stylish bandanas. She even paid special care to our senior needs dog. We absolutely will be booking with Shanna in the future!”
“Megan and her family were great with my dogs! She sent updates and pictures, and my dogs came home happy, and exhausted in the best way. They clearly had a great time there. Will definitely be booking with Megan again.”
