“Diana was an amazing house and fur baby sitter. She was a great communicator, super fun to work with and left the house looking perfect! A truly kind, caring and warm person (and a great baker!)”


“This was the first time for Alena to take care of Booker and everything went very well. We initially had Alena over for a meet and greet and upon her return a few days later Booker was very happy to see her. Alena even took Booker for a walk which he always enjoys. Alena followed our instructions and communicated when we inquired. We are just visiting Lake Tahoe for the summer and needed a sitter for our 100lb Bernese Mountain dog and Alena did a fantastic job. Looking forward to using her when needed.”


“Toni was so fantastic watching our dog and house during her week stay. Very communicative, respectful, and I know our Molly was in great hands! Peace of mind for when you’re away from your home and fur baby :)”


“Lisa is a gem. She took care of everything and our dogs just loved her. We finally were able to get away and feel comfortable they were in good hands without stress. Lisa was in communication with us from start to finish and we didn't have to worry our plans were in jeopardy. Thank you so much!!”


About: I have been a dog owner for more than 18 years and I've been around cats and dogs my whole life. My partner and I, along with our 4-year-old Pyrenees mix, provide a safe, loving space with tons of room to run, and heaps of belly rubs. I'm currently working part time as a property manager on a 50 acre estate. My partner works from home. So one or both of us is around. We both take our dog for a long hike/bike/one wheel ride every evening that we would love to take your buddy with us. If I have take your dog to work I have a Tacoma with a camper shell that I bring Stevie in. It's safe and lockable so you can be assured that your fur baby is safe. We live in a single family home with two floors outside the Meyers roundabout. We allow dogs on couches, beds and have indoor and outdoor dog beds. We are a block away from miles of trails down to the Truckee river. Also I love running my dog Stevie with my one wheel around paradise park. Which is around 4 miles round trip. So if your dog needs lots of running and is safe on or off leash Ive got the toy for them. When not walking or riding we have a large fenced backyard (especially for Tahoe). So they won't be couped up inside. Please let us know what your best friend needs and we'll do our best to accommodate.

“Kristin was great with our dog, who is a rescue, and has her quirks! Our dog was very comfortable with her, seemed well taken care of when we returned, and Kristen was great at giving us updates. We will definitely be using her again!”


About: Dogs are better than humans and the more we aspire to be like them the better the world gets. I love dogs and have always been an active member of my local humane society and have volunteered with non profits in several 3rd world countries for animal welfare. I am active and move around often so have not been able to have my own fur baby yet so I would be so grateful and honoured to be the best ‘ fun aunt’ to yours. I enjoy time outside as much as a dog does so I’ll be able to return your pup well exercised and ready to relax after a good hike and some fresh air and belly rubs. I work in restaurants so am free every day until 3 and finish around 10pm. I would be able to take your dog out for regular runs or walks as well as house sitting in the safety and comfort of their own home. I live in a studio apartment with great access to trails and an unfenced yard. Dog sitting at my house would be totally possible for the right dog that would be comfortable with a smaller space.

“Alexandra was wonderful! She watched our two big Samoyeds in our hotel room while we were visiting Lake Tahoe, so we could go out in the evening. She fed them and took them for a walk, both dogs were happy and well cared for. She was punctual, flexible, and great with communication. Highly recommended and would use her again.”


About: I have been caring for pets since I was 8 years old. From then to now I have done overnights, dog walks, and even potty breaks. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to keep their pets company, take them on walks/get them outside, feed them on a consistent schedule, be available for potty breaks, stay over night, and bathe when needed. I love being a helping hand just as much as I love the furry companions! I just got back from a long trip away and I am not working. Allowing me full time to take care of and attend to your pets. I will follow any and all instructions given on how to care for your pets. For example, having them in leash when letting them into the backyard, putting them in the crate when needed, keeping food high out of reach, etc.

“Dillian was with our sweet Maltipoo for 10 days. She took great care of him, went on lots of walks an lots of snuggles. It was so great knowing our fur baby was in such good and loving hands. We will definitely use her again!”


“Krystina was the best and we will definitely be using her again!!! She stayed at our place with our boys and the house was spotless when we returned. She even washed the sheets and remade the bed! She followed all of our instructions to the T! It was obvious she really cared. We highly recommend Krystina!”


“Angelique and her boyfriend Pete were excellent! I needed help with my sweet little kitty who does not like to be alone for a last minute trip out of town, and Angelique and Pete made me feel super comfortable, sent lots of snuggle photos, and took care of my house and my little lady perfectly! Looking forward to continuing my relationship with them for future house/pet sitting needs! Would highly recommend this duo to any pet owner.”


“Alexis is absolutely Amazing! There are no words to describe how wonderful she was with our dogs. We had a destination wedding for our daughter in Tahoe, she was at the Hotel, watching our 3 dogs, making sure they were happy, fed and walked. She worked with our crazy wedding schedule and even took on the role of helping my mother (grandmother of bride) with her dress. I cant say enough things about her and anyone would be very happy using her to sit with their animal babies. I would fly her to our home to care for our animals. Thank you again Alexis! Parker and Willow love you........ Kara and Don!”


“I couldn’t recommend Andrew enough. He always keeps me up to date on how my dogs are doing, takes wonderful care of my dogs and is great to work with. 10/10 would recommend.”


About: I am a total dog lover. I fall in love with all the doggies!! Literally I will be home with the dogs all day and night, with 100% of the focus would be on the canines. Walking, playing, feeding, and snuggling away with my friendly pals. Only 1 dog or if the family has 2 I will not take anymore dogs. That way I can spend my time with them, doing what they like best. There is not 1 dog that I have Not enjoyed. They literally gravitate to me and I absolutely adore it. At one point in my life, my husband and I had 4 dogs. Lots of work but we Loved every minute of it. We lost 2 just 2017! WE rescued another baby from a bad situation. He is awesome and loves everyone! I am very flexible with short notice if you should need my services in an emergency.

“Jess was great with my dog who has separation anxiety! She was very accommodating to fit within our schedule and needs. She was ontime and maintained communication throughout his stay. We will definitely be using Jess' services again next time we are in need.”



“Boomer had a wonderful time with Teeda. She was so responsive and sent 5 photos everyday. Her yard is like dog paradise with a duck pond, chickens, tall trees for shade and grass for running. She took Boomer on long hikes each day and he always looked happy in his pictures. He'll definitely stay with Teeda the next time we're in South Lake Tahoe. Thank you!!!”


About: I have watched dogs since I was young, both at my house and at the owners house. I have watched up to 6 dogs at a time 😅 but prefer to keep it to 2-3 total. I have a dog of my own, a long hair-dachshund, that loves to play with all dogs. I make sure the dogs I watch get to play outside each day as I know how important it is for their health and happiness. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I often watch dogs at my house but can drive to check on dogs if it’s nearby. Most weekends I’m outside either hiking or playing the snow and love to take the dogs with me. I have a fenced yard and a dog door for access to the upper deck. During the day I often take a morning walk and evening walk in my backyard ranging from 30 minutes to an hour depending on my work schedule that day. I have tons of dog toys and treats that keep the dogs occupied.

“Gurleen was awesome house and cat sitting for our furbaby Rudy! She was communicative and responsible. She left the house perfectly clean and sent a ton of photos and videos which we wanted. We'd for sure have her back.”

Adam & Lauren G.
“Leaving my dog, Nugget, in someone else's care is never easy—but Adam made it feel completely natural. From our first meeting, I could tell he truly gets dogs. Nugget warmed up right away, which is rare for him, and that gave me so much peace of mind. While I was away, I received the sweetest updates—photos of Nugget lounging in the sun, playing fetch, and even snuggling up for naps. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being loved. When I came home, Nugget was happy, calm, and clearly had a great time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust completely. Adam is more than a sitter—he’s part of our extended pack now.”

The dogs will be so happy with her, they won't even stress out that you the owner isn't even there. 10 out of 10 stars in my book. You won't find a better care for your dog.
