Doggy Day Care in Crystal Bay

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, providing reliable walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention to keep them happy, safe, and well-exercised. I’m a stay-at-home Mom. Kids are homeschooled so we are always around. Can take your dog outside and for walks throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and a silly boxer boy dog to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog at night if you prefer.

“Such a great experience with Melissa, she is so such a dog lover and extremely friendly. JoJo had a great day with her. We would love to bring JoJo back to her next time. Thank you again, Melissa !!”

“My pup had so much fun with Lidia. When I picked her up she was calm, happy and content. She had the time of her life playing at the lake and sunning herself on the deck. I'd be thrilled to have her watching my dog again in the future!”

“Jessica is great! She was Storm’s first dog sitter, and she truly went above and beyond. Excellent communication and positive attitude. I was impressed by her creativity and commitment to keep a very curious and energetic Husky safe, occupied, and feeling loved. Storm and I both have a new friend in Jessica☺️”

“Very sweet, really cared about our dogs! It was our first time leaving our babies with anyone and we couldn’t have found better people to watch them. Will definitely be back”

About: I've grown up with pets ever since I was 5 years old, so I have about 17 years of personal experience with dogs, cats, birds, lizards, guinea pigs, rabbits, etc. Despite the experience being personal, I am professional, calm, and work extremely well with animals. It is important to me to be their voice when they aren't listened to, and to provide help in any way I can, as I know that life can be very busy, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't make time to take care of those that take care of us. Animals always love unconditionally and provide unwavering support in all ways, so I'm here to give that to them, and to take some of the stress off your shoulders when you have to give your time elsewhere. Services: Daily Walks Food, water, and treats as directed by pet parent Playtime :) fetch, frisbee, catch/chase- anything they like to do! House Sitting and Drop-in visits Give medication or maintenance care if needed. Light Grooming like coat brushing and baths. Take to Vet appointments, Dog Park, or other errands related to your pets. (Depending on distance, gas, time and price negotiation for those factors) Energy Healing ☆ please ask me for more information if interested :) I work from home and set my own schedule, so I'm available to care for the animals and spend time with them throughout the day. We go on daily walks, and hikes on the trails several times during the week. There's space in the backyard to play, run around, and go potty when needed. I will actively keep you updated during the entire stay, and send lots of pictures. I will stick to the routine you have for your pet, and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible. I treat every animal with respect and as if they are my own- with lots of patience, understanding, love, kindness, and empathy. I do my best to understand their temperament so I can cater to their specific needs in order for us to gradually build trust at their own pace.

“Gina and her family are wonderful. So caring, they are active with pets, and personable. Buddy was able to be himself, play and then kick-back and rest. Their yard is so doggie ready and Buddy made new friends. Very pleasant visit, Thank you!”

About: Growing up with dogs my whole life, there has not been a year where we have not had dogs in the house.... meaning we love them! To add to growing up with dogs, I (ambitiously) got a puppy during my senior year of college. This taught me to balance caring for a puppy while excelling in school and enjoying my senior year. This challenge gave me a new insight into putting 100% care into a pet and made my bond grow deeper with my dog, Josie. My family's dog, Molly, is a therapy dog for hospitals and schools allowing me to see the true joy that dogs bring into people's lives. That said, I truly enjoy finding the joy and laughter each dog brings into our home! Working from home, I am truly present to take care of and be attentive to all dogs. There are a few days where I will be unavailable due to travel or subbing at school, but those are blocked off on a weekly basis. Josie and I always start our morning with an activity. Josie loves to go on a morning run, so if your pup is a runner... get ready to join the pack! On the other hand, my family's dog, Molly, loves her walks and play time. We also have a park and great trails in our neighborhood meaning the day is open for adventures. Our condo is in a wonderful area close to the beach with lots of grass and easy access to walking trails. As a home welcome to dogs, we love having them sleep with us but can crate them if that is their safest spot. We have the space to feed dogs separately if needed.

“My dog was well taken care of and had a blast with Missy, Kyle and their fur baby Rubi while I was at work. Missy sent pics and updates throughout the day and when I went to pick up Mayday she didn’t want to leave!”

“Kathy was great with the dogs, communicative and flexible, especially because we booked her during a blizzard! Still she made sure our pups got some activity and felt at home.”

“Judy and Bob were fantastic looking after Delta for the day while we skiied. Lots of photos and updates during the day and their dogs were great with Delta who was a little shy to begin with. Highly recommended and we look forward to Delta staying with them again!”

About: Hi! My dog Enzo and I enjoy hiking around Tahoe. I would love to take your fur friend on all of the adventures with us! I usually spend my days off wandering in the woods and playing at the lake. My ideal day may include a morning hike, evening walk, lake sunset, porch relaxing, reading/Netflix at bedtime with dog cuddles. I can offer as much or as little activity as needed, feeding times flexible, house rules flexible (furniture/no furniture, crate/free roaming) depending on your home routines. I would also be more than happy to take care of your pups while you’re out of town. Enzo and I can come to your place, or your dog can stay with us at ours. I work as an emergency room nurse so my shifts are variable, but I have four days off each week. When I am not working, I am able to be with the dogs doing dog adventures all day long! I am often off work for a week at a time. My schedule is variable because I work in health care. When I am not at the hospital working, I can dedicate the whole day to hanging with the pups Dogs will stay in the house with frequent potty breaks. We have a morning and evening walk each day at the very least - most days I try to spend the majority of the day outside with hikes and lake days

“I cannot tell you how amazing patty was!!! She was extremely friendly and I felt 100% at ease when it came to dropping off my baby girl with her.”

“Gissell was so nice and great with my dog Willow. Willow was super happy when I picked her up and I appreciate that Gissell sent me photos throughout the day. Gissell also took some time to meet me and Willow ahead of time to make sure everyone was comfortable which was super helpful. Definitely recommend Gissell and will be reaching out to her again!”

Emma C.

“Malea was great! Great communication, flexible with my schedule and the need for pick up and drop off. She took my Aussie (high energy dog) on many adventures and when they came back my pupper was tired from exerting her energy and happy! 100% would book again.”

Grace J.

“Brad was great! Very accommodating and friendly. You can tell he's a dog person. Took great care of our pup and I wouldn't hesitate to leave our dog with him again. Thanks, Brad!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and have cared for many of my family and friends pets while they have been away for periods of time. I’m take very close attention to the details of how one wants their animals to be cared for. I’m not working any other job right now so I have a very flexible schedule. I enjoy taking dogs on walk for multiple walks a day and I’m happy to add any extra requested detail the routine. There are some great trails near my house that are great for dog walks. I’m happy to attend to your dog with any specialized instructions you may have for taking care of them at your house.

“Payton and Rick were great with Callie and flexible with our drop off and pick up times! They also sent an update while I was away which let me know she was in good hands :)”

“Luke was great at caring for my energetic goldendoodle during our ski day in Tahoe! Scooter got lots of walks, excercise and love. I would highly reccommend Luke to anyone.”
