“Jaclyn was so great with our 3 kitties. We have one special needs cat with unique requirements and she handled him flawlessly! She provided updates and photos and we felt so comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. We would recommend her to all of our friends.”


About: Hi there! My name is Gabi and I have about 10 years of pet care experience. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors! I have spent time working at boarding facilities where I administered all kinds of medications and kept up with individual dogs’ feeding schedules. I genuinely enjoy walking dogs and being active, but also don’t mind if your pup is more of a couch potato that just wants some company. Whatever their needs, I’ll be there for them AND you! I’m a county employee so I do work full time, but on the days that you schedule me, I’ll be completely available to you! I also understand that sometimes life happens and I’m more than willing to be flexible when needed! Each dog is an individual and I like to take my time getting to know each dog I work with. I have previous experience working at a behavioral center for dogs, so if your dog is fearful or maybe even a little reactive here and there, that’s totally okay! I will always take the time to connect with your dog on their timeline

“We just booked Denise’s services for the first time. We needed multiple daily drop-in visits for our 3 cats, including care of our elderly cat who needs medication. Denise took such great care them while we were away! She is conscientious, timely, and wonderful about communicating about her visits. I really appreciated the pictures and updates and can tell she cares about her clients. I was so grateful to be able to relax while on vacation knowing my cats were doing well and were in great hands. We will definitely be using Denise’s services again!”


About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 17, and over the years I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of animals big and small. From playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’ve done it all. I’m also experienced in giving medication when needed, and I truly love providing comfort, care, and companionship to every furry friend I meet. I work three days a week, which leaves me with plenty of free time to dedicate to pet sitting. It fits perfectly into my routine, and I love having the flexibility to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for animals to relax and play. I live in a quiet, pet-welcoming neighborhood with minimal traffic, making it great for walks and outdoor time. Whether your pet loves lounging or being active, they’ll feel right at home here.

“Amy was punctual, communicative, and my dog was really tired when I got home! I appreciated Amy's attention to detail. It was well worth the peace of mind to have Amy drop in for my dog.”

About: Love dogs, and I want to be a dog aunt! I've cared for friends' dogs for overnight stays. I especially like taking them on hikes! Grew up with cats, they're special creatures -in a good way! I work as an environmental consultant as well as a hiking guide for a local hotel, and my schedule is usually flexible! I usually start and end my own day with walks! Animals are part of the family and should be treated that way. In my client's home, I follow what is the norm for the pet so they feel the most comfortable!

“Lacey was awesome, took great care of my kitties and even watered my plants 🙏 super grateful.”


About: I grew up 17 years with a golden retriever as a younger 'sister' and have raised and trained my cocker spaniel from 3 months on. Dogs and I are on the same frequency. I have ample time and motivation to play/exercise with fur friends. I've always felt more comfortable around dogs than any other beings so I love to prioritize their needs. Maple roams freely about the house and fenced yard, though she is fully crate-trained, rarely ever barks, has good recall, and quite submissive - never aggressive unless drawing her initial boundaries with other dogs.

About: I have taken care of not only my dog but have friends who relied on me to feed and to walk their dog(s) as well. I'm currently in school but I am able to help out during evenings throughout the week. I am also free on Friday mornings as well. I can help feed the pets if I'm needed. I can walk them around the neighborhood, dog parks if that's ok, or even go on hikes.

“Today was my second booking with Anna, and my little pup was back in his happy place again. As before, Anna was prompt and professional, and most importantly took such great care of my little guy. I think he may have a new best friend. She took care of him, gave him lots of petting and belly rubs, and sent lots of pictures of their playtime. I would recommend Anna to anyone looking for a great caretaker for their favorite furry friend. I will absolutely book again!”


About: Animals have been my passion since childhood, and from a young age, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to working with and helping them. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in kennel and boarding facilities for cats and dogs, volunteered at a horse boarding facility, and worked at the Humane Society. For the past seven years, I’ve been part of the veterinary field as a veterinary receptionist and assistant. My goal has always been to ensure that every animal in my care feels safe, happy, and loved, and that their owners leave with peace of mind, knowing I’ve made a positive difference in their pet’s life. Having a somewhat flexible schedule allows me to devote sufficient time to supporting you and your pet, enabling travel of up to 50 miles as needed, which also facilitates quality time with your companion. I enjoy collaborating with owners to establish a mutually convenient schedule. In my experience, maintaining a familiar environment, such as the pet's own home and routine, is crucial for minimizing stress and maximizing comfort. To ensure seamless care, I prefer to conduct in-depth consultations with owners to discuss their pets' daily habits, and other essential details. My ultimate objective is to provide top-notch care, ensuring your pet's comfort and happiness while you are away.

About: I have taken care of dogs for neighbors, doctors, hospital CEOs, friends and family ever since I was 10. All types of dogs and requests and breeds. I’m at home unless I’m running to the grocery store or doing an extracurricular activity. I can be here for your fur babies when you have to be away. 😻 I have a 6ft fenced yard. I have the ability to separate my yard into 6 different areas at nearly half an acre. I have multiple kennels and some with tops and grooming and bathing equipment. In home day care is heavily screened. Your dog will not have access to the inside of my home, kids, or my pets for in my home day care. Large outdoor area and garage kennels will be fully accessible. Kennels are cleaned with vet rescue which kills parvo. Fresh water in kennels and outside. All are properly sanitized. Health and safety is top priority for everyone. Puppies not fully vaccinated I’ll be in a separate area. Walks, my children will be attending if dogs are child friendly.

“I had never used a pet sitting service before and was a little nervous not only to have a stranger watch my pets but have a stranger in my home. I must say that Clinton put me at ease he did a wonderful job and would certainly use him again in the future. He sent me pictures of my pets everyday which made me feel better. Thank you, Clinton!”


About: I have owned dogs for the last 6 years, fostered several and helped find happy homes for them. What I am able to give dogs is love, attention, and just being present with them. Even after the dogs got adopted, I remain in contact with them, and we set up play dates! Helped with potty training, and trick training is my favorite. Love to go on hikes, play frisbee and chuck-it! Summertime running through sprinklers, and wintertime running in the snow. I also love Cats! I grew up with cats and just adore them. I work Monday - Friday. Weekends off, which leaves me all weekend to sit, play or board your furry friends. I hike every weekend so other dogs will fit right in. I do set up play dates with friends and their pups as well. I have a nice yard for playing, I can bring your dogs to my house or sit for them at your home. If they board with me, I can crate your pup or not. Plenty of toys, balls, and frisbees. Dog door to backyard if you wish it to be used or can be closed for safety. Gated neighborhood for walking! I would like to have a free "meet and greet" to get to know you and your pets.

About: I have fostered kittens and puppies since I was 15, and have loved to be hands on with any street animals I see. We rescued my cat from a local dumpster and she has been with us for 6 years.

I work a minimum of two twelve shifts a week at Carson Tahoe, often picking up shifts as often as I can! I love to stay busy and fill gaps of time with hobbies or side jobs ! My schedule is all over the place but i manage things very well and balance everything out to be able to give your pet the best care! I am very open to different pet parenting styles.
