Personalized care for your dog or cat - Reno
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Reno
“Ron's care of our two senior dogs was wonderful. Ron sent us daily updates to include photos which made our vacation better knowing they were in great care. One of our pups had a minor medical condition that Ron was attentive to, and we could tell her care was his priority. We actually felt bad picking up our pups knowing that they were going to miss their time with Ron. We highly recommend leaving your pups with Ron!”
“Couldn’t be happier with her dog sitting. She sent a ton of pics which helped ease our mind as this was the first time having him boarded. Highly recommend!!!”
“I’ll be honest, Chelsea didn’t have a ton of reviews when I first reached out, so I was a little hesitant at first, especially since our previous dog sitter moved away and Blue is truly our baby. I’m so grateful I decided to take a chance because Chelsea was absolutely wonderful. From the beginning, she was kind, communicative, and very flexible, which immediately made me feel at ease. Throughout our week-long vacation, she sent regular updates and photos that meant so much to me and made it easy to relax knowing Blue was happy and well cared for. He settled in so naturally that it felt like he was staying with family, not just a sitter. Coming home to a happy, calm dog confirmed everything. It was clear she treated him with so much love and attention. Chelsea is someone who genuinely cares about animals and takes great pride in what she does. I felt incredibly safe leaving Blue in her care and would not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust and feel confident with.”
“My older beagle stayed here for a full week. There were other small dogs there, which was fun for her I think! The house was clearly set up for dog sitting, with a doggy door into the yard, a gated area near the kitchen, and double handles on the front door so nobody sneaks out 😊 I didn't feel worried at all during Bella's time there, and she came home happy and rested!”
“This was the second time Kelly sitting my dog Cookie. From the daily pictures Kelly sent to me, I saw Cookie enjoyed a lot during the stay. I'm very grateful to have Kelly. Thank you.”
“Gina was very communicative with me and always made sure to send updates and photos. She was very easy to work with and really took the time to understand my dog’s needs. She is an excellent dog sitter and I highly recommend her!”
“Very fast at responding - felt safe dropping my newly adopted dog for her first ever night away from home. I enjoyed Sarah having the presence of other dogs for socialization. 10/10 would return again with Chloe :)”
“She was amazing with my boy Stetson even after he got into their trash and was counter surfing. I was updated throughout his stay and received pictures. Definitely will be going back !!”
“Had a great experience with Aaron and Nicole for the weekend and was grateful they could accommodate my last minute request. Bandit was happy and comfortable with them the whole time. You can tell they’re attentive, caring dog lovers. Would definitely book again!”
“This was first time leaving my dog with Wendy and Dave and we had a great experience. They were so kind and loving with my baby while I was away. He had a great time and we would definitely use Wendy again. I highly recommend!”
“Maria was awesome with our Duke. This was our first experience using the Rover app and we were very pleased with the service. Maria was very caring and attentive with Duke and had great communication throughout his entire stay.”
“This is our dog’s favorite place to stay when we have to go out of town! He always comes back home so happy and exhausted. Thank you for always making him feel at home!”
“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!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Laura! From the moment we dropped our dog off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in caring and capable hands. When we picked him up, it was clear how happy and well cared for he had been—his tail was wagging, he was calm, and honestly, he seemed like he had just returned from his own little vacation! It’s such a relief to find someone who genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Thank you, Laura, for taking such great care of our pup. We’ll definitely be booking with you again!”
“Kathryn was absolutely wonderful. The dogs loved being with her at her home, which was set up beautifully for dogs. They both came home very happy and it just makes our time away so relaxing knowing that our little loves are in the hands of someone as loving and caring as Kathryn. We couldn't be happier with the experience.”
“Danielle was great communicating with us and sent photos of my dog Ume while I was away. Ume was able to sleep with her on the bed. Danielle was able to keep with Ume's eye drop schedule and administer her eye drops. Thank you! We will book again :)”
“If any fur baby pet owners need a place to board their babies, we can and will highly recommend Young's Doggie Resort. Not only is Young's home perfect for any fur babies; Young, himself is beyond perfect. We never imagined someone would open their home and their heart the way Young did. Sending texts and photos throughout the day with constant updates and even a blog. Young was so caring and loving, we're planning to use his doggie daycare so our pup can play with Hersey and Frasier, plus Young!! As you can tell, we can't say enough about Young and his care for fur babies.”
“April and Rachel did an amazing job. Kayla was super happy, well cared for and definitely enjoyed her stay. She felt safe and that was very important to us. Will definitely be booking with them again. They are very kind, understanding and very accommodating. They treated kayla like their own.”
“I was super nervous to leave my retired service dog for the first time, but Emily made the experience great! I appreciated the pictures and detailed updates and never felt worried about him at all. Would definitely book with her again!”

“This was my first experience with Rover, and I am so pleased and grateful to have found MK on this platform. I couldn’t have asked for a more ethical, kind and competent individual to stay and care for my cat and home. MK sent me updates and pictures every day, offering me consistent peace of mind and an overview of how everything was going while I was visiting my family. I’ve had to come back home early before because of issues at home with pet sitters, and it is such a gift to find someone like MK who I can count on to be responsible and trustworthy while I am away. Kepa absolutely loved MK, I could see the look of absolute feline adoration in his eyes from the pics of the two cuddling and playing with his toys. MK even put on a tv show with birds and gave me a laugh with the picture of Kepa sitting on the chair watching the bird channel on tv. When I arrived back home, I opened the door to an immaculate house- clean or better than I had left it, and one very happy cat. Kepa keeps looking around for MK, I can tell that he misses his new friend. I look forward to booking MK again in the future: what a great experience, thank you!”
“Khine was such an amazing sitter! She went above and beyond taking care of all my kitties. They are usually shy but befriended her very quickly! Khine kept me updated and sent me lots of photos which I really appreciate. She was also very caring of my home! I highly recommend her and will be requesting her again!”
“Gabrielle checked on our cat while we were out of town. I got lots of photos and updates from her! I know Benjamin had a great time, we will definitely use Gabrielle in the future!”
“Catherine did a fantastic job with my cats during their drop-in visits. They were well-fed, cared for, and I loved getting the updates and photos. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away.”
About: I have four dogs from 10 pounds to 150 pounds, and I’ve had dogs my whole life! I love taking care of animals so much that I wanted to be a vet when I was younger. I’m working part time and going to school so I should have plenty of time to play with your dogs or cats! I have two days off a week, as well! I am happy to follow any instructions for your dog’s care, I know it’s not one size fits all! Please let me know of any special commands your dog has, and I’ll be sure to try and work on them with them!
“Chelsea was a wonderful pet sitter for us while we were away on a camping trip. She arrived when scheduled, followed through with our requests, sent many photos, and provided exceptional communication when it came to updates and any problems. We came home and our kitties were well taken care, along with our home. Looking forward to our next trip knowing that we can have a reliable and responsible pet sitter available for our cats.”
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.
“Kiley brought our 2 kittens out of their shell in no time. She seemed really in-tuned with their needs and was able to make them comfortable in the short time she was here. Our female kitten, Ember, is usually quite guarded so for her to be out playing the entire time says a lot. Thank you, Kiley for taking such great care of our kitties!”
“Sherina was great! She was very attentive to our kitten and even took care of our potted plants while we were away. She is quick to respond to texts and provides feedback while you're away. Overall a very reliable and sweet sitter!”
“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!”
“Monica was a wonderful help while I was away. My usually very timid and anxious cat warmed up to her immediately. She made sure he got all his medicine daily, played with him and went above and beyond to clean some cat throw up off my carpet one day. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple kinds of animals since I was a child. I am a dog mom to a big rescue dog named Jimmy. I love the outdoors and going for walks. I have experience working with shelter animals who have had a tough transition into their forever homes. I also have experience in senior dogs as well as end of life care for our fur family members I currently work from home so if you need someone to come and sit with your babies I am free to do so. I have all mornings/ early afternoons off through the week. Tuesdays I work early but am off at 11am and am free after that. Weekends I’m fully open. I have a 2 bedroom apartment with a dog myself. I live close to trails and the Rancho San Rafael dog park. I also am flexible in whatever your pers needs are
“Danika was an absolute life-saver when our cat ended up going to the emergency vet just a few days before my family and I were going on vacation for a whole week after. As he recovered from his vet visit, he required constant care which involved multiple check-ins a day, monitoring how often he drank water, ate his food, and used the litter box. He also needed to be given 3 different medications on different time schedules, 2 of which required being administered with a syringe in his mouth. Danika was able to do all of this and even texted us updates after each visit to let us know how things were going. Her availability on such short notice along with her attention to detail and genuine love and care for our cat gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our vacation without feeling worried the entire time. I would gladly book her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone else needing someone to look after their kitties. Huge props to Danika!”
“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.”
“Lilian did a great job to take care and be with our fur baby Jimmy. I won’t take a second thoughts of leaving my baby with her on our next vacation.”
About: I am a passionate dog walker committed to delivering tailored walks, fostering joy and exercise for furry companions while prioritizing their safety and happiness. I have been walking dogs for at least 10 years, starting in college over my summer breaks and since then I have watched/walked dogs on and off throughout my graduate program. I am trustworthy, and reliable, and am dedicated to treating your fur baby/babies as my own. I am a new Physical Therapist just trying to pay off her loans ASAP! I am also an avid dog-lover without a dog of my own so I am looking for a fun and fluffy friend to fulfill these needs! My schedule of availability is currently subjected to mornings and evenings at this time. I will care for your pets as you see fit and promise to keep your animals safe in my care. I also love to send pictures to the owner in order to keep them updated on their baby's whereabouts and activities.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Reno
“Danielle was a fantastic sitter for Oreo! She was incredibly responsive and her home is perfectly set up for dogs - I loved seeing the protective sheets on the sofa, a dedicated water station, and a secure yard for roaming. She kept us updated with photo and messages while we were skiing, which we really appreciated. Oreo came home happy and even smelled great! It’s clear she takes excellent care of her guest dogs. We will definitely be booking with her again when we’re back in Reno!”
“Shawna took great care of our high energy puppy! She showered our pup with lots of caring energy and outdoor play! We loved all the picture updates throughout the day!”
“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!”
“Cameron and Amanda are top notch. They went above and beyond and accepted my pup as he is. He was happy to return to their home each morning. Thank you for being so supportive of Otto.”
“Kristen was a BLESSING! We had a same day request and she was able to come through! She was accommodating, flexible, affordable, friendly, easy to communicate with and took such great care of our boy! He had the BEST time! I definitely recommend booking with Kristen in the future! 🤍”
“Sarah was awesome! Took a last minute booking, had to drop off early, perfectly accommodating! Took great care of my little Peanut and left me feeling very comfortable with who was taking care of my pup!”
“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!”
“Brittany is the best! Daisy normally exhibits separation anxiety. Not this time. When I went to pick her up on the second day, I wasn’t sure she wanted to leave! ?. We’re visiting from out of town and will definitely try to rebook before we head back home.”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of providing reliable, loving pet care for over 15 years. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. From daily walks and feeding routines to overnight stays and special care for senior pets, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of attention while they’re away. My long-term clients appreciate my dependability, communication, and the calm, caring environment I provide for their furry family members. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays vary, but generally after 2pm I have a fenced backyard with plenty of grass, one very friendly dog to keep yours company, and two dog kennels to crate if needed.
“Lisa was patient and friendly. Pauli had a such a great time that he actually complained when we picked him up. Will recommend Lisa and will have Lisa help out with Pauli when we are in Reno again!”
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. growing up, our family dogs weren’t just pets, they were part of the family. From early morning walks to lazy afternoons on the couch, I learned from a young age just how much love and care dogs truly deserve. One of the biggest perks of booking with us? My wife and I both work from home full time, which means your dog is never left alone. There’s always a friendly face around, whether they’re looking for a cuddle during a coffee break or a backyard play session in the afternoon. That lifelong bond with dogs is what makes us pet sitters you can trust. When your dog is in our care, they’re not just being watched they’re being enjoyed. We make it a priority to give every pup plenty of playtime, belly rubs, and one on one attention so they feel right at home even when you’re away. We know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind, and we take that responsibility seriously. You can expect regular updates, photos, and a happy, tired pup when you return. 🐾 Living with our own Australian Shepherd means pet care is already woven into everything we do. Your dog will enjoy a natural mix of scheduled walks and feeding times, plus plenty of spontaneous play sessions, cuddle breaks, and backyard adventures in between. With one of us always nearby, we’re able to respond to whatever your pup needs, whenever they need it! no waiting, no rushing. It’s just part of our normal day. 🐾 When it comes to your dog’s safety and comfort, we’ve got it covered. Our large, fully fenced backyard gives your pup plenty of room to run, explore, and burn off energy, all in a secure environment where you never have to worry about them wandering off. Inside, your dog will have a spacious home to relax in, and with my wife or I here almost around the clock, they’re never left alone or unsupervised. You can rest easy knowing there’s always someone attentive nearby. We’re also proud to have a pet friendly Australian Shepherd of our own, so your dog will have a built in buddy to play with! Our Aussie is well socialized and loves making new friends, making the transition to our home stress free and fun for visiting dogs. From the moment your pup arrives to the moment you’re reunited, their safety, happiness, and comfort are our top priority. 🐾
“Karly and Emily have watched my dog Nova several times now, both for daycare and for overnight stays. Nova is a sweetheart but he typically experiences pretty significant separation anxiety when he has to be watched by others. Not the case with Karly and Emily! He couldn't be more excited to visit; sometimes he doesn't want to come home. It's great to have a place I know I can leave my dog and he'll receive great care and love. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from house sitting to dog walking since my teenage years, and it’s been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Neighbors, family friends, and family have trusted me to provide exceptional care for their furry companions. My deep love for animals led me to volunteer at the UCD Vet Center during high school, where I assisted veterinarians in hands on care. Later, I dedicated time to shelters like the Davis SPCA and the Pacific Palisades SPCA in Los Angeles, working with rescue animals and learning how to nurture even the most vulnerable pets. Over the years, I’ve rescued and rehabilitated numerous animals, many of whom became cherished members of my family. It’s been an incredible journey watching them thrive, whether it’s a senior dog finding comfort or a shy kitten finally coming out of their shell. My approach is rooted in holistic care, recognizing that diet, environment, and emotional well-being are just as important as physical health. I’ve seen firsthand how natural remedies, proper nutrition, and mindful interaction can transform an animal’s quality of life. Whether your pet needs a lively walk, a playful home visit, or overnight care while you’re traveling, I’d love to be their trusted companion. I believe in tailoring care to each animal’s unique personality, whether that means helping calm anxious pups or adjusting activities for a senior dog with mobility challenges. Feel free to ask me anything—I’m happy to share references or discuss how I can best support your pet’s needs. Looking forward to meeting your four-legged family member and giving them the same love and attention I’ve given animals my whole life! I am currently really flexible with days and hours available. I am working from home right now which allows me this flexibility. Open m- f as well as weekends I have a fenced yard and one dog at home that loves and gets along with all animals and is super friendly. I have plenty of space and separate rooms in the house along with a gate I can put up if your fury love wants a little space of their own for play time!
“Michelle was a wonderful host who Oliver absolutely enjoyed his time with her and her dog. He looked forward each morning to go to their place. He loved his walks & playtime & came home absolutely exhausted each day.”
“Super friendly!! I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find someone to take care of my dog Edward last second so Timothy was a lifesaver!! Edward didn’t want to get in the car after so I can tell he loved spending time with him, will definitely book him again in the future!!!”
“Elaine was very sweet and understanding with my pup. I highly recommend her. My pup is going through separation anxiety and she was great with her. I will be contacting her again!☺️”

“Kathryn has been reliable and trustworthy with walking my 2 doggies. I really have piece of mind knowing the dogs are going to get great care and a great walk while I'm at work!”
About: I have been around animals my entire life. This has enabled me to be comfortable with rescues, seniors, puppies, and special needs animals. I have experience pet sitting, dog walking, and with basic dog training. I have three pets of my own, with vast medical and behavioral needs so I am familiar with challenges of all types. I am always willing to learn and strive to do better every day. I will be holding a close to full time job that will take up Most of my mornings (4am - 12pm). This schedule could fluctuate - however I will be steadily available during afternoons and evenings. I have a short commute to Downtown and Midtown Reno so I can optimize time with your pet(s). I plan to offer 30 minute walks but am very open to adjustments on that time based on individual needs. Drop in visits will usually be about 30 minutes to cover all basic needs and give much appreciated attention. Again this can be flexible based on individual pet needs. Safety is a huge part of caring for my own pets, and I plan to carry this to yours. For dog walking education on breeds, energy levels, and health safety standards is something I am always researching. Knowing when weather can negatively impact a pets health, how to safely redirect from potentially dangerous situations, and constantly monitoring your individual pets needs is always my priority. For drop in visits and pet sitting safety is even more paramount. Making sure cats are safe and indoors, all potential chewing and safety hazards are removed, and that every animal is looked over so anything amiss is caught early is essential. Your pets are most comfortable in your own home, and I want to make sure that that comfort is met with high safety measures on my part.
About: My family and I have owned pets since I can remember. I am currently 33 with 3 pets of my own, but have grown up with pets in the home my whole childhood. My family always had dogs and cats in our home, and additionally I owned a bearded dragon, fish, and a tortoise that I helped care for daily. Once I moved to college in 2014, I got my first pet of my own. Her name is Stella and she has been with me for the last 12 years. She has lived with me in Oregon, Texas, and now Reno. Additionally, my wife and I have a silly orange cat named Nemo, and a fun/energetic Frenchie named Comet. While living in Texas we adopted another cat with FeLV who also developed diabetes. I have experience giving insulin injections and taking blood glucose readings. I have met and cared for many of my friend’s pets of all ages and sizes and can responsibly provide all daily care for your furry babies as needed. This includes but is not limited to feeding, walking, playing, transporting, giving oral meds, and subcutaneous injections. I currently work as a teacher and have extended breaks during the fall, winter, and summer. During the school year I will have availability during afternoons and evenings for some care activities, and weekends for more. During breaks, if not traveling, and I will have a lot more flexibility daily. Update 06/08: I am currently on summer break from teaching. My weekday availability has been updated with more available times/ services. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my 2 dogs and an indoor cat. The pets have access to the entire unit including furniture during the day and when sleeping. Our spare bedroom can be used for your pet if they are more anxious and want separation from the other animals. My dogs are crated when no one is home to supervise, and the cat has full access to the unit at all times. My pets are all friendly towards other dogs and cats. In the past when sitting for animals, I have them fall into the same routines as my animals for walking, feeding, pottying, and crating, unless specified different by the owner. When doing drop ins and house sitting, I follow all instructions left by the owner.

About: I have four dogs from 10 pounds to 150 pounds, and I’ve had dogs my whole life! I love taking care of animals so much that I wanted to be a vet when I was younger. I’m working part time and going to school so I should have plenty of time to play with your dogs or cats! I have two days off a week, as well! I am happy to follow any instructions for your dog’s care, I know it’s not one size fits all! Please let me know of any special commands your dog has, and I’ll be sure to try and work on them with them!
“I’m using crutches at the moment and needed someone to walk my dog. This was my first time using Rover; it’s been a great experience. Cat replied to my request quickly and on short notice, which I appreciated. My rescue dog, a terrier mix, is not around other people very often, but he took to Cat immediately and returned happy each of the three days that she walked him. It’s all gone so well that I have another week of walks scheduled with Cat.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I keep a calm, clean home and limit the number of pets I board at one time so each pet gets plenty of individual attention. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine, providing a low-stress environment, and keeping you updated with daily photos and check-ins. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. Because I work from home full time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship while you’re away. Plenty of outside time and cuddle time! When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain a clean, calm environment and limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives plenty of attention. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime. Because I work from home full time, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision and companionship. I also provide daily photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining consistency and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medications if needed, and any household preferences. I’m respectful of your home and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed while keeping you updated with photos and detailed check-ins after each visit.
“We are so happy to have met Neesa, she’s always available and promptly helps us with our pets, long walks, follows all directions and goes above and beyond by bringing boxes and trash bins in.”
About: I've have taken care of animals since I was in elementary school, I have taken care of reptiles so I'm not afraid of bugs and I've also taken care of dogs and even during covid I had a family member bring me their dogs for 3 months to take care of them. Currently since I moved to reno and looking for a part time job I have a lot of time to be taking care of dogs currently so I don't mind what time it will be. I have two dogs and they are friendly, and I always look out for them weather that's in my backyard or on a hike since currently in reno there seems to be many snakes out there and I would like to keep them safe, but also want them to have fun while being safe.
About: My sister relied on me to house sit and watch her dogs for a couple of weeks every summer when I was in middle and high school. I grew up with dogs and was responsible for taking them on walks, feeding them, brushing them, bathing them, and playing with them. I am between jobs so I am quite flexible right now. I am looking to get a full-time position at which point I will update my schedule here. My cats are feral rescues so I cannot afford to bring any other animals into my home, but I am very cautious while going on walks to be very aware of other dogs (especially off leash), people driving too fast in residential areas, and making sure to bring adequate water for walks on warm days.
About: Hi, I'm Hannah! I'm a Reno local, lifelong dog lover, caretaker, and proud dog mom to a 10-year-old Mini Dachshund and a 4-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd. Over the past 10+ years, I've cared for dogs for friends, family, and referrals from people who trusted me with their pets. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a neighborhood walk, or an energetic adventure, I treat every dog as if they were my own. People often tell me that dogs gravitate toward my calm, steady presence. At the same time, I love being playful, engaging, and making sure dogs have fun. You'll often find me taking dogs on long neighborhood walks, exploring local trails, or relaxing on the couch for some quality cuddle time after a good outing. I believe every dog learns best through positive experiences and small wins. Whether your dog is shy, anxious, reactive, energetic, young, or senior, I focus on building trust, creating a positive environment, and helping them feel safe and confident. A little about me: I work remotely as a Relationship Coach and Transaction Support Coordinator, which gives me flexibility during the day and allows me to provide dependable care and attention. I'm available during business hours as well as weekends, making it easy to fit walks and drop-in visits into your dog's routine. Joining Rover is a natural fit because it combines two things I genuinely enjoy: caring for others and getting outside for more walks. Caretaking has always been important to me. I spent years working as a nanny, and I bring that same level of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness to every animal I care for. I'm comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, administering medication, and adapting to your dog's unique needs and routine. After each walk or visit, I'll send photos, videos, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs, I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I work remotely and part-time. Pet care is the perfect compliment to my flexible work schedule. I sit at the computer for most of the day and would love nothing more than an excuse to get more steps in. I'm a firm believer that your dog, your rules. Every dog has their own routine, boundaries, and needs, and I take those seriously. Whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, reinforcing training, administering medication, or accommodating behavioral or health concerns, I'll follow your instructions carefully. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and keep their routine as consistent as possible while you're away.
About: Grew up having a dog (or 2 at times…as well as bunnies…and some other reptiles!). I currently live in an accommodation where I am not able to have a pet and I have become to miss animals more and more! There is no such thing as a bad animal, only a poorly trained one, and I treat them all with love and care. I’m available every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day (and night)! My schedule can be as free as needed on those days and I am open to spending lots of time with your pets to make sure they get the best care possible! I am very careful and thoughtful around pets and other people’s property. I will treat your belongings and animals with the utmost respect and care.
About: I live local to the area, and my schedule is extremely flexible to fit your needs. I understand that no two animals are the same and I take that very seriously when caring for them. I am currently working during the weekdays, but I am available during the day to take them out on walks/bathroom breaks and I am free evenings/weekends. I currently live in an apartment. Unless the dog is on the smaller side, I would prefer at home visits instead of taking the animals to my place.
“Sydney was an excellent pet sitter. She was very professional, organized and communicative throughout the 5 days she watched and walked my dog and cat. Sydney sent me information and pictures for each dog walk, keeping me up to date on my dog's sore paw and really gave me peace of mind knowing that a very caring responsible person was coming over twice a day to attend to my pets needs. I have been very impressed with Sydney and recommend her highly.”

“Couldn’t be happier with her dog sitting. She sent a ton of pics which helped ease our mind as this was the first time having him boarded. Highly recommend!!!”
“This was the second time Kelly sitting my dog Cookie. From the daily pictures Kelly sent to me, I saw Cookie enjoyed a lot during the stay. I'm very grateful to have Kelly. Thank you.”
“Very fast at responding - felt safe dropping my newly adopted dog for her first ever night away from home. I enjoyed Sarah having the presence of other dogs for socialization. 10/10 would return again with Chloe :)”
“She was amazing with my boy Stetson even after he got into their trash and was counter surfing. I was updated throughout his stay and received pictures. Definitely will be going back !!”
“Had a great experience with Aaron and Nicole for the weekend and was grateful they could accommodate my last minute request. Bandit was happy and comfortable with them the whole time. You can tell they’re attentive, caring dog lovers. Would definitely book again!”
“This was first time leaving my dog with Wendy and Dave and we had a great experience. They were so kind and loving with my baby while I was away. He had a great time and we would definitely use Wendy again. I highly recommend!”
“Maria was awesome with our Duke. This was our first experience using the Rover app and we were very pleased with the service. Maria was very caring and attentive with Duke and had great communication throughout his entire stay.”
“This is our dog’s favorite place to stay when we have to go out of town! He always comes back home so happy and exhausted. Thank you for always making him feel at home!”
“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!”
“Kathryn was absolutely wonderful. The dogs loved being with her at her home, which was set up beautifully for dogs. They both came home very happy and it just makes our time away so relaxing knowing that our little loves are in the hands of someone as loving and caring as Kathryn. We couldn't be happier with the experience.”
“Danielle was great communicating with us and sent photos of my dog Ume while I was away. Ume was able to sleep with her on the bed. Danielle was able to keep with Ume's eye drop schedule and administer her eye drops. Thank you! We will book again :)”
“April and Rachel did an amazing job. Kayla was super happy, well cared for and definitely enjoyed her stay. She felt safe and that was very important to us. Will definitely be booking with them again. They are very kind, understanding and very accommodating. They treated kayla like their own.”
“Five stars isn't enough!! My fur baby was so loved and cared for while I was gone, and I had no worries at all being out of state - the photos I got told me all I needed to know about how happy Lola was and what a good time she was having with Karly and Emily. This was my first experience with Rover.com and won't be my last. Lola isn't used to being boarded; when we've traveled in the past, she went with us in the RV. I didn't want her to be stuck in a kennel somewhere, and the home environment the girls provided was absolutely marvelous! I'm over the moon pleased with the whole experience!!!”
“Megan was very responsive and took good care of Willow. She kept us posted on Willow’s whereabouts and sent us pictures. It’s reassuring to know our baby is in good hands. I would highly recommend Megan to take care of your pets when you are away. Thanks Megan!!”
“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.”
“Ivy was great! She provided a meet and great to ease our concerns of our dog being around her cat since our dog has never been around cats much. Definitely would recommend Ivy to care for your pets when needed.”
“Hands down the best rover experience I’ve had. Shannon and David were communicative (twice daily updates and pictures, I didn’t need to check in) and gave me a peace of mind I sincerely appreciated. Plus they were just kind people in general. Definitely recommend and would use again!”
“I just got peaches about a month ago and was afraid to leave her. Sadie was great. She kept her busy having fun with other dogs and kept her routine for feeding sleep per my request. Peaches seemed very calm with her. Thank you Sadie.”
“My precious boy have stayed at Ms.Shanna's house for many times like, seriously, I can't remember how many times already. She and her daughter treat Buchoy like a member of the family. They would take him to swimming in the lake, hiking, running, etc. Buchoy gets goodies every holiday like Valentines' Day, Easter, etc when he happens to be at Ms. Shanna's. This week Buchoy got a July 4th themed stuffed toy with his photo on the tag and bags of treats! If you read my previous review, it's not only Buchoy who would get goodies, because I get something too! If you want your dog be treated like a family member, have lots of fun and exercises, book with Ms. Shanna and you will surely thank me!”
