Wendy did a fabulous job taking care of our two pups while we were gone. She was able to accommodate us last minute. We loved the updates she provided and photos. We will book her again in the future. Thank you Wendy!

Sydney was able to watch Louis as an emergency due to another sitter not showing up. She is the sweetest and I know Louis is in great care with her.

About: With 9 years of pet care experience, I offer personalized attention that truly sets me apart. I specialize in gentle, patient care for puppies and provide compassionate, tailored support for senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. My dedication to understanding each pet’s unique needs means they receive more than just basic care—they get a loving and attentive companion while you’re away. This commitment makes me a trusted and reliable choice for pet owners seeking exceptional care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine by dedicating specific times for feeding, walking, play, and rest. I prioritize consistency to ensure pets feel secure and loved every day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I balance their needs with my schedule to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the week. This routine flexibility allows me to adapt to each pet’s unique habits and health requirements, making sure they always receive the attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment whether caring for pets in my home or yours. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, keep spaces clean and secure, and maintain open communication with clients. In my home, pets have a calm, supervised area to relax and play, while at clients’ homes, I respect their space and ensure all instructions are followed precisely. This flexible approach ensures every pet feels safe and loved, no matter the setting or service provided.

About: I have 3 years of professional experience working in dog daycare and boarding facilities, along with many years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs — both big and small. What sets me apart is my understanding of dog behavior and emotional needs, especially with reactive, nervous, or anxious dogs. I’m familiar with separation anxiety, leash reactivity, fear-based behaviors, and confidence building. I understand that reactive dogs are not automatically aggressive — they simply need patience, understanding, and proper handling. This is something I connect with personally through my own dog’s journey of overcoming fear and anxiety. Through both professional and personal experience, I’ve developed strong knowledge of dog body language and handling skills. I’m comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once, including large breeds, and I can adapt to different feeding schedules, crate-training routines, and individual care needs. I also have experience administering medication to both dogs and cats. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and care, I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to every pet’s unique personality and needs. I am currently a stay at home dog mom with lots of free time. I understand that life gets crazy suddenly & I am available for same day bookings ! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, triggers, personality, and needs so I can provide care that helps them feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and structured environment. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, especially with nervous or reactive pets, and I always prioritize positive interactions and proper handling techniques. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, medication routines, crate-training preferences, exercise needs, and household rules to help maintain consistency for your pet. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and check-ins so you can feel reassured and connected while you’re away, knowing your fur baby is in good hands.

About: I have hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, where I learned safe handling, medication administration, basic first aid, and how to keep pets calm in new or stressful situations. That background helps me confidently care for puppies, seniors, pets with medical needs, and shy or nervous animals. Outside of clinical work, I’ve grown up caring for family pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive — whether your pet needs enrichment and long walks, or quiet cuddles and routine comfort. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to match your pet’s routine — whether that means early walks, midday visits, or cozy evenings at home. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and the same level of care I’d want for my own. When I’m caring for pets in their home, I follow their established routines — feeding schedules, walks, training cues, boundaries, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured, and I always keep a close eye during outdoor time or new environments. At my home, pets have a calm, clean space where they can relax, play, or cuddle depending on their energy and personality. I’m attentive during introductions, supervise closely, and provide plenty of enrichment, exercise, and affection. Whether your pet needs structure and long walks or quiet time and a soft place to nap, I’m committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old. Starting with walking my neighbors dog. Once I was able to drive I would do overnights with the families dog, that I babysat for. Small dogs, big dogs and even cats. Your little fur baby will be in great hands! I’m currently working full time. I can walk/ drop in Monday -Friday mornings at 7am and I’m available after work at 5:30pm for evening for walks/drop ins. The weekends are more flexible with time for walks and drop ins. I will be needing to pet sit at the location since I cannot have pets in my current house. I have only done pet sitting at the clients houses for the last 16 years. It makes for a better stay, the animals are not overwhelmed and happy to be in their own home.

She took care of feeding our guinea pigs while we were traveling. She was very kind and sent us photos every day, and we really appreciated it. If we’re ever away again, we would love to ask for her help. Thank you so much, Danika! 😄✨

About: I’d make an excellent dog sitter because I bring energy, attentiveness, and a genuine love for animals into everything I do. Even without formal experience, I’m highly responsible and quick to learn, which means I’ll carefully follow any instructions to keep each animal happy, healthy, and on their routine. I’m naturally patient and observant, so I can pick up on personality and needs with confidence! Whether that means playful energy, calm companionship, or extra care and reassurance. Most importantly, I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I would treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited while their owner is away! I am currently working part time and going to school part time. I am free most days and want to still remain productive in any way I can. I ensure cleanliness and safety when it comes to being in someone’s home. I love to clean and tidy up whenever I can! As an introvert, I love quietness so noise isn’t something I emit a bunch of.

About: I have hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition to dogs, I have experience handling and caring for cats and small animals, including rodents. Pet care is an important and fulfilling part of my weekly routine. I work a job, so I’m fully available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. If there is a change, I will notify you. On the other days, I can provide care between the hours of 7- 10 PM. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully, so both of our schedules align and so I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine... feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and more. I give them as much love and affection as I would my own, always aiming to keep their tails wagging, etc. I treat every home with respect and make sure it stays secure and clean. I also send regular updates and photos to the owners so they can feel at ease, knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I’ve always had dogs in my home, I have 4 right now and my dog daisy is my best friend! I have experience with puppies and older dogs and I love meeting new dogs and caring for them. I am a freshman at the University of Nevada, Reno and I don’t have a job because I want to have time to focus on school so dog sitting is perfect! I prefer to stay at the dogs home so they feel comfortable, less stressed, and not overwhelmed when their parents leave town. Being in their natural environment always makes them happier!

About: Hi, I’m Kayana! - Certified belly rub specialist 😊 I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities for as long as I can remember. As an animal lover, I treat every pet like part of my own family. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love getting getting to know each of your little loved ones. I bring hands-on experience, caring for dogs and other pets with a wide range of needs. I’m extremely comfortable following all detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and handling medications when needed. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and dependable care every time. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. Hope to meet you and your pets soon! 🤍 I currently work a full time 8-5 Tuesday-Saturday, however, I do still have flexibility in my work routine. Outside of work, my schedule is very much open to meeting the needs of your fur babies! I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone new. Rest assured, safety, and trust come first in everything I do. I create a calm, safe space where pets can relax. I follow routines carefully, stay alert during walks and visits, and provide a secure and loving environment. I respect your home, communicate, clearly, and make sure you always feel confident that your pet is in great hands.

About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Virginia City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 558 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Virginia City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Virginia City. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
