Reno Area Dog Care Reviews

See why Reno area dog parents trust The Comforted Kitty for reliable dog sitting and private dog walking.

"Comforted Canine also has an extremely extensive information sheet for you to fill out regarding your pets and their needs. We really appreciated both the Meet & Greet and the detailed sheets - it provided us with more peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy your vacations more knowing our pets were in good, knowledgable hands. Both times our sitter has been extremely communicative, thorough and provided us with a detailed breakdown after each visit (including lots of pictures!!)."

"It is heartwarming to know that we can always rely on The Comforted Canine and their dog sitters with looking after our two dogs. Their extra attention to detail and customized pet care is the best. Their phone app also makes it easy to schedule."
Kristina L.
Reno-Sparks Area
"I have a very reliable sitter through them and she has been a godsend in a very busy travel year for me this year. Knowing that they’re in great hands when I have to leave is the best peace of mind and I really love the detailed updates and pictures I get every day of my two little loves so I don’t have to be too sad about missing them. Their pet portal is also really easy to use and overall they’re a very communicative, reliable business. Highly recommend!"

Why Dogs Stay Happier at Home

For many dogs, staying home helps reduce stress, protect their routine, and avoid the overstimulation of boarding, daycare, or group care.

  • Keep meals, walks, potty breaks, and rest times consistent
  • Stay in familiar surroundings with familiar sights and smells
  • Avoid stressful travel, kennels, and sudden schedule changes
  • Skip exposure to unfamiliar dogs in group settings
  • Receive one-on-one attention from a sitter or private dog walker

Senior Dogs

Gentle support for older dogs who need familiar surroundings, slower routines, or extra patience.

Support for medications and special care routines.

Dogs Who Prefer Home

A calmer option for dogs who get stressed by boarding, daycare, or unfamiliar group settings.
