About: My name is Hannah and I have 4 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking in the Tahoe area. I started dog sitting while in college in San Luis Obispo and fell in love with it. I grew up with an Australian Shepard who loved to run and play and currently have two cats, Goose and Luna, that are so playful and fun. I’m happy to walk, run, hike, and hang with your pet :) I currently teaching yoga 3-4 days a week, Monday through Wednesday in the afternoons for a couple hours and Tuesdays and Thursdays in the mornings for a couple hours. I’m quite active and am enrolled in online classes but am available for walks in the mornings, evenings, and midday if needed :) I am gentle and allow pets to come to me and get comfortable before I approach them. Additionally, I am very comfortable caring for pets in their own home and doing house sitting as well.
“Maddie was great with our dog Sophie. She kept her entertained with many walks and other outdoor activities. She sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. We came home to a very happy dog. Thanks Maddie”
About: I have spent my whole life living with and caring for animals of all kinds, ranging from self sufficient cats who sleep all day, to high energy dogs who require multi-mile walks and constant engagement. I can comfortably administer medications and assist pets with special needs. I will follow their routine closely, and if I'm staying in your home I can assure you it will be treated mindfully. Growing up I frequently watched my neighbor's pets and built great relationships with each animal. I got to know so many personality types and adapted to their lifestyles. I don't have any pets currently, and would love the opportunity to spend time with ones who need care. My ultimate goal is to make them feel like their family never left. I will be working part time this fall, so I will have lots of time to keep your furry friends company. Depending on your pets energy we can keep active or spend the day cuddling on the couch. No matter, their days will be filled with love and enrichment. I just ask that you provide each pets vet information and emergency contacts. I have a pet-specific checklist we will go over, ie diet, behavior, daily routine, etc. to ensure they will have a fun yet safe and clean environment while you're away. Dogs will stay on leash when out of the house (unless we go for a swim!). I can check in as frequently as you prefer and can confirm many photos will be taken.
About: I have experience pet/house sitting for friends, family, and coworkers and am looking to expand my service! I am attentive to specific house/pet needs and take care in my work! I typically dog/housesit over weekends. My schedule is generally very flexible which is great and I love having dog buddies to take on walks or hikes in my free time. I grew up in a family with 1-3 large dogs at a given period and am very accustomed to dog care (walking, feeding times, routines, meds) I am also a very mindful pet/house sitter. I always make sure to follow specific instructions and care for individual pet needs. I am a good communicator and easy to reach by phone while house/pet sitting
“Sky was absolutely fantastic! She was super communicative, very thoughtful and attentive to our boys, and she did a great job watching them. We'd love to have her watch the boys again soon!”

About: I have taken dog training classes at the local animal shelter. I offer puppies plenty of time for teething tug-of-war and have tons of patience with the geriatric slow walkers. I work part time, close to home, which offers plenty of time for dog walking, drop ins and over night care. My hours are flexible. I would keep your dog safe on a leash and have a large crate if that would help them feel secure in a different environment.
“Phillip is wonderful! Totally helped me out at the last minute! Went above and beyond. I felt very comfortable knowing my pup was in his hands. So respectful and kind! Would recommend without reservation!”
“Windsor was wonderful with our dog and cat> she took great care of our house and animals while we were out of town. Easy to communicate with and responds quickly. We would love to use her again!”
“Jacqueline took great care of Sonora! She was also incredibly easy to work with - super communicative, including with adorable photos and videos of our pup while we were gone. Will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Evan took great care of our 3 year old pointer while we were away for the weekend. He was very thoughtful about letting her get used to him and feel comfortable and made sure she had regular walks. Evan sent us plenty of updates and photos and he was very respectful of our house and left it spotless. We will definitely be booking Evan again and highly recommend him.”
“This was my first time leaving my babes for an extended period of time with a dog sitter and I am thoroughly impressed with Laura! She was very nice and patient with my high maintenance pack - of 2 dogs- 1 who can be reactive, 1 with hip issues that needs additional supplements and meds , 1 foster dog also on meds, and 3 cats! She loved them as if they were her own and I don’t think they even realized we were gone with how pampered they were with her there! She even took them each dog on their own seperate walks! She sent lots of updates and was super understanding of me being a crazy furmom! The house was also so clean when we came home - which was greatly appreciated after a long day of traveling! We will definitely be using her again!! Thanks again Laura - the pups already miss you!”
“Sarah was fantastic with our dog, Brody, and super flexible with our schedule. She was genuinely invested in making sure he was well taken care of, adjusted her schedule for what was best for us and Brody, and really made us feel like he was in good hands! Also sent a ton of pictures and great communication! Would absolutely recommend and will use Sarah again!”
“Malia was wonderful with my pets! I was so happy to come home to happy, relaxed animals. It’s clear that Malia has a genuine love for pets. My two chihuahuas and cat seemed to really warm up to her. She's clearly responsible and caring, and I felt completely at ease leaving my little critters in her hands.”
“Michelle was great! She came by for a meet and greet beforehand and to go over care instructions, and the pets were happy and healthy when we returned. The house was clean and just as we left it! Definitely would recommend her!!”
About: I have taken care of a lot of different animals including dogs, cats, cows, horses, sheep, goats, chickens etc. I feel confident that your pets will have a nice time hanging out with me and they will be safe and well fed. I am working as a river guide a couple of days a week so I will be unavailable while on the river. Other than that, I have an open schedule. I am living in my van so I cannot host. I spend most of my time outside so I would love to care for your pets at your home. I think that place is important and would be interested to see how your animals act when they are at home.

Medication administration, cat sitting, dog walking, or senior care, whatever it is I’m here to make your life easier and ensure the happiness and safety of your pet while you’re away.

Matt was amazing! He has great communication skills, is punctual, reliable/dependent, and I was never worried about my pup while in his care. I will absolutely be reaching to Matt again when I need dogsitting/dog care. I'm grateful to have found Matt in Tahoe. Thank you Matt!
Kae is absolutely fantastic. She took such great care of our pup, and was patient and persistent with our dog’s anxieties. She clearly knows how to work with animals. She also took great care of the house and went out of her way to help with out garden. Highly recommend Kae!
Chelsea is fantastic - she stepped in at the last minute when my previous sitter fell through and gave Bodie excellent care while I was out of town. She is very responsive, communicative, attentive to details and went above and beyond during her stay - my house was cleaner than I left it and Bodie was very happy! I will definitely use her again and could not recommend Chelsea enough.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dollar Point walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dollar Point maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dollar Point choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
