“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.”


“I was stuck out of town on business and Alexis came to mine (and Remi’s) rescue last minute. He’s diabetic so I was truly in a bind, but she saved the day! Thank you Alexis for your help last minute and making sure my boy was taken care of!”


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.

About: I have extensive years of pet care. I’ve always had pets as a child and identify and understand their needs and wants (Cats & Dogs). I can house sit during the day but sorry no over night stays. If you call or text me early am I can book same day. Thank you. I have a cat and he comes first, so I do not do overnights stays but can do in home sitting for dogs or cats.

About: I have had pets since I was little and have always loved animals. I have even helped care for an old roommate's bird for 5 years! I work full time as a server, but the earliest I ever have to go in is 930a and the latest I've gotten out is 11p. However, with an influx of students coming to our restaurant, my schedule has mellowed quite a bit and we're not being scheduled on those brutal doubles as much! I love going out for hikes and to the lake. I'd be happy to bring your furry buddy with me on those adventures! I'm also happy to relax and keep your canine OR feline friend company at your house too if they are more interested in relaxing!


“Brenna went above and beyond with a medical scare with my cat. She spent extra time with him, kept me consistently updated, and stayed with him until we could get home. She’s a lifesaver 💜”


About: I got my first dog for my 8th birthday and have loved and cared for many ever since! From chihuahuas to Dobermans, I’ve walked, fed, played, and trained so many sizes and kinds. I work for myself so my schedule is very flexible. I love being outside as much as I can, so always available for longer walks for those restless ones. I can easily adjust to any needs or wants your pet may need! Slow and steady walks with lots of sniffs or maybe a fast paced run and a dip in the river to get the energy out.. I can be flexible and do either!

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.

“Very kind and took care of my cat and even fish for me while I was gone perfectly! I really appreciated the picture updates as well. Next time I need a pet sitter, I'd definitely go with Maroan!”


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.

“Toni is super caring and I could tell right away that she really loves animals. She was easy to work with, communicative and reliable. I would definitely work with her again!”


“Katie did a great job looking after my two kitties. She responded right away to my booking inquiry and came over to meet the kitties before our trip. Katie was on time, responsive, and reliable. She had to deal with the fact that my kitties have a habit of getting excited, eating too fast, and then not being able to keep it down. She checked in with me and made some feeding adjustments over the visits and by the end of our trip both kitties were happily retaining their food. She also sent lots of great pictures during her visits. I would recommend Katie to others and hope to book with her again in the future.”


“Kerri did a wonderful job as our cat "sitter"! Really appreciated her friendliness, quick & timely communications, attentiveness with our senior cat, and especially the videos, photos, and notes during her visitation. Highly recommend!”



“Megan was an absolute pleasure to work with, we instantly felt comfortable and trusting when we met her. She kept us up to date throughout and left us a note when we got home. We have just moved to the area and are so pleased with the service of both the site and Megan.”

Adam & Lauren G.
“Adam took amazing care of Lila, Mesa and our property while I was away. He followed all our requests on dietary needs and their walking schedules. We even got sweet photo updates. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and loved. It’s such a relief knowing everything is in such good hands. We’re so lucky to have found Adam!”


Evelyn R.
“Evelyn has walked my dogs since last summer every other weekend when I have to travel. She is very reliable and patient with my boys and when she’s available during the week she takes them for four hours on some mornings. She keeps her rates fair and her care is worth every dollar because our senior dog is treated like a king. I have recommended her to two neighbors so far and it’s going well. She is also available to house for our cat when we are all away.”

“Alyssa watched my 1 year old lab/ border collie puppy for 2 days, 1 night and did a great job. She walked him twice a day for about an hour each, played with him and stayed over night in my house.

“Kayla is great with dogs. She’s also very outdoorsy and active and can give the 4 legged mammals a good run for their money. Our dog Keanu loves Kayla. To the point he recognizes her car and goes crazy when she arrives to pick him up. Once while out on a walk he saw a car similar to hers and he went crazy thinking it was her. We definitely trust Kayla and she’s SO worth it. I would 10/10 recommend.”
