His journey into office began in November at the SPCA Northern Nevada's annual "An Affur to Remember" Gala.
Lisa Rosen and Robert Stachow, from Carson City, bid on a live auction prize to win their dog a day as mayor of Reno.
Their bid of $1,100 won Everett his short term as mayor.
All proceeds from the gala were donated to the SPCA of Northern Nevada, a no-kill shelter based in Reno.
Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve officially proclaimed Everett mayor of the day on Thursday in an official ceremony at Reno City Hall.
